🏛️ Immunity plus Fisher rulings collapse the January 6 prosecution
Trump v. United States (presumptive immunity for official acts) combined with Fisher v. US (Sarbanes-Oxley obstruction misapplied to January 6) have gutted Jack Smith's election-interference case: every alleged act now has to be relitigated as official or personal, and the obstruction theory behind roughly 200 convictions is void. Sacks' call is that the case never reaches a verdict and Smith should resign, which lifts Trump's criminal-legal overhang.
⚖ Why this result
fully deterministic — computed from daily closes on the scoring date; nothing below is editable or hand-set
- Window: 2024-07-04 → 2025-07-04 — first mention + 12-month horizon, then the window locks.
- The call: ▲ LONG DJT (primary play). DJT fell 35.0% over the window → return (sign flipped for a SHORT) = -35.0% (the call lost money).
- Benchmark: holding SPY over the same window returned +14.2% → vs SPY = -35.0 − (+14.2) = -49.2% — what this call made or lost against just owning the index. This is the number the result uses.
- Rule fired:
· RIGHT — return ≥ +10% AND beat SPY by 5+· HALF — return ≥ +5% OR beat SPY at all▶ WRONG — everything else
- Credit: supporters of a WRONG earn 0 each, opposers the opposite — this feeds the scoreboard. supported: Chamath, Sacks | opposed: Jason
