  1. Great interview. Key moments: 7:038:42 Druckenmiller learned that being right or wrong matters far less than how much you make when right and how little you lose when wrong. That asymmetry compounds differently than anything else. (I organize timestamped clips from the best investing and trading YouTube videos at Finwistic)

  2. If you look at today, you're not going to make any money.
    If you try to look ahead and what might change and how investors might perceive something ahead, that would be a recent name.
