I woke up late,QRD on what happened today?

>>60555796 (OP)
Where is my bear market?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

palantards? care to explain?

>HE BOUGHT PLTR RIGHT BEFORE LE DUMP

AAAAAAAAAAA
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>60555807
i'd like to know wtf is going on did the CEO just die?

>>60555813
Based chihuahuas

schizophrenic market yet again
cheers to the dip buyers, there were at least 4 opportunities today

Hold??

Did Amazon just merge with google or some shit? Holy fuck the gains

Wtf do I do

The greatest rally never sold

DING DING DING DING DING

How did it go today?!?!
How did it go this week!?!?

PLTR down 10% because...?

WTF HAPPENE

>>60555796 (OP)
Guys I’m not gonna lie… I’m crying right now.

Finally reached 200k in investments. Granted that’s nothing compared to some anons here, but considering I grew up in a moldy trailer in a trailer park, I can’t believe I made it this far.

God bless 2x ETFs, God bless this board for recommending them to me ~7 years ago.

And God bless this fake & gay (but amazing) market.

I love you all. Happy Friday frens

Any GOOGchads here?

>>60555833
+0.19%
It's not fair, I never seem to be graced by clown market gains.

>>60555843
Right here baby boy
Amazon holder too

>>60555833
another great day being an nvideo computer holder

safe to say this is not a market anymore. More like a cryptocoin

>>60555836
Because some anon bought PLTR at $136 . They heemed him

>>60555833
Today: -0.04%
This Week: +10.00%
This Month: +15.41%
This Year: -37.02%

mostly crabbed

>>60555833
Up 1.02% today, 8.48% this week
Blessed meltup

>>60555833
My women's underwear options are basically break even or a little under. At one point I was up $500 but didn't sell cause I'm dumb.

S&P 500 x2 is better than S&P500

>>60555857
what exactly happened to your portfolio?

>>60555866
sold the bottom after liberation day

>>60555842

>>60555869
well at least you learned your lession, right?

>>60555869
I did the opposite.
I had no money in stocks until that point and I was like “yep, there’s my entry point”.

>>60555864
why not the 20x

>>60555873
Nope

>>60555842
Good job anon.
I hope your life gets filled with happiness now.
Spend this money wisely and don't fuck it up.

Godspeed.

>>60555855
well i guess im holding over the weekend because i forgot about an, at the time, low ball order. instantly down thousands too lol

>>60555842
>>60555871
just joking, congrats anon
>>60555884
don't spend it, it's barely the start of real compounding

Unironically a manufactured Dump for Trump's friends and family

>>60555833
2% today
9% this week
thank you nigvidia

Clown retard market

>>60555821
>>60555828
>>60555839
Should've sold. Now you lose.

>>60555895
The dump was organic, the pump was manufactured after he got spooked by the bond market.

>>60555843
I love googl

Not being a billionaire or even a millionaire makes me sad, I wish I had been born in US instead of northern Europe to even have a change at wealth. You guys had good unis, parents who teach working ethics, networks, VC money

>>60555833
I bought UVIX on Monday when I read news that Chinese tankers were reversing course to avoid the straight of hormuz. Immediately after I bought it started dumping. I'm down at least 25%. I guess I'll just hold it for a while. Surely Trump will say something to make it spike...

>>60555913
At 30*

>>60555833
-0.4% day
+7.5% week

basically nobody believes there will be tariffs

>>60555913
You know there are still a lot of poor people in the US right? Odds are even if you were born here you would still be a wage slave.

What caused the insane pump at eod?

>>60555917
imagine believing that something happens..

>>60555938
I was a big NEH advocate up until that moment...
What a mistake.

>>60555932
If you're poor in the US it's your fault

>>60555833

The worst thing about today is not being able to buy more.

>>60555963
just give the manager a firm handshake and get a six figure job brokie

>>60555963
Can't you just be a beat cop

>>60555948
100%. either low iq or lazy (or both).

>>60555982
Most small towns only have part time cops that make Walmart wages. Getting into a position in a larger city with good pay is highly competitive and hard. Same as getting into the electrical union. I failed at that last one myself.

>>60555869
oof

>>60555883
well at least you understand that you are stupid

So after some digging I think I get it already,
option trading in a nutshell is betting if a stock will go up or down, the more it goes either way the more you profit from it?

>>60555888
UPDATE: Bought the very bottom and was able to break even just now at 133.67. So whoever giga whale anon that tried to dump on me can suck it.

Pretty good day for AI DASHCAMS

Fuck. I missed the PLTU dip.

New to SMG, so hello to all of you.
Im in my 20s, and made a good bit off crypto back in 2021. I have approx 70k net worth right now. I feel very lucky to be in this position. Trying to figure out what to do with stocks.
Because ive been a crypto and PMG head for a long time, i am now wanting to go into stocks.

What is the play? 2x LETFs?
If so, what do you guys recommend. I think im too young to just boomer max into voo only. Ive held 70k in crypto and pms for this long, and somewhat like the risk, but am trying to tone down, as I think this amount of money is super lucky at this age, and I want to be careful with it. Things surged today, and im not sure if now is a bad time to enter.
Open to any ideas. Hope you all are well.

Trump might give you a lower entry if he announces a really retarded tariff on Canada this upcoming week.

>>60555842
Just broke 100k this week myself

Wagmi

>>60556044
Inb4 10% tariffs on china 150% tariffs on Canada

>>60556050
why would china and snow china be tariffed differently?

>>60556044
This is what I think, Trump realised how retarded and self destructive tariffing whole world at once was so now you see it happen piecemeal

>>60555842
What did you do anon? I've started investing since the beginning on ETFs

>>60556060
>>60555842
congrats anon. also curious what you recommend and what leveraged etfs were best for you.

>>60556051
Snow India made a new rule that starts taxing our tech companies (and also backdates the tax payments to 2022). It's just a shake down. Nothing will happen thoughever.

Dunno why I didn't buy more GOOGL shares when they were cheaper

I missed the thread moved
>>60555810
Good job anon. Be sure the protect your gains. You now have something to protect. Do not gamble with it, it will always pay you interest. Keep building wisely. You are making it.

>>60555842
Literally ahead of almost all Americans at that net worth which is scary and impressive dude good job. Poor is a mindset. Broke is a condition.

Don't be a europoor simple as

>>60556149
why 10% in some dog shit that will be worth 0 in 20 years?

>>60556111
You don't. A lot of European wealth is tied up in pension schemes, in some countries you pay 25% before tax for subpar results.

So basically you can't get rich in Europe.

>>60556111
I'm bongland & I earn 35-40k a month Euros, (I KNEEL TO AMERICANS)

>>60556111
Uneducated pillbillies babysitting a car wash living in flyoverville trailer trash states make as much as doctors do in europe.

>>60556159
For example a high earner gets first 25% cut and then 50% in taxes. Think about that for a second, you bring home around 37% of your total earnings after tax. That's fucking brutal man

>>60556159
aieee

>>60556149
i think its too conservative for me. thanks for the input though. maybe ill be kicking myself, but i just think i need more personal involvement in my investing.

Genuine and heterosexual market action

>>60556154
Because the chance that you're wrong like you have been ever since it's inception is worth 10%

a bunch of retards piling money into something doesn't make it have value
but it has been quite an educational demonstration on how powerful fomo is on the fragile human psyche

Ok screencap this and post when that happens. If not Kys.

>>60555836
russel index rebalance. it goes from the midcap to the alrge one now.

Palantir's inclusion in the Russell 1000 Index is more than a technical event—it's a structural upgrade that could amplify the stock's upward trajectory, provided technical momentum and institutional tailwinds align

>>60556243
power of retard fomo could make it go to a million first over the next 10 years, it wouldn't even surprise me, but it will still be worthless. I will have forgotten about you and this post by the time it rugs probably.

>>60556265
>provided technical momentum and institutional tailwinds
Is valuation just completely irrelevant to you people?

>>60556265
chatgpt what stocks should I buy

>>60556311
it is completely finely valuated.
stop normy thinking.
soon there is much more money and its worth less. then its all good

>>60556311
stocks don’t give a fuck about fundamentals

>>60556357
investing is, by its very nature, an act of speculation. You are giving money to someone else and hoping, PUTTING FAITH, in their ability to turn it into more money. Valuations really don't mean shit in context of the pure nature of investing. It's just averaging out historical data from past iterations of the economy that are different from today's. A loose reference at best, certainly not something to invest based on.

>>60556357
That is manifestly not true, my young padawan.

God dammit, my apartment complex switched to a new rent payment service, and they keep spamming my inbox with shit, like "you can delay your rent payments!" or "pay with our special credit card so you can spread the payment out, and you get points!"
It's like fuck off man, I have enough money, I can just write a check on the 1st

>>60556372
>That is manifestly not true, my young padawan.
CRLC PE ration is 2,000, how is that related to fundamentals?

>>60556376
Keep good records, sounds like harassment. If your complex tries to give you shit about something you tell them you are suffering severe mental and physical stress from the non stop harassment from their contractor.

>>60556387
Well they aren't targeting me specifically, it's just marketing spam. But it is annoying that I got signed up for it without being asked. I'm sure there was something in the lease or the TOS for something, but I don't care enough to look it up.
I guess it might be a sign of the times though that they feel the need to let everyone know they can put their monthly rent on a payment plan if they need to.

>>60556400
>Well they aren't targeting me specifically
Yes they are. They did not get your name at random, it was provided to them by the apt complex. You need to learn how things really work to keep out of trouble and to put pressure on those who try to give you trouble. When I lived an apt they did a garage inspection in the new 20 year old manager told me I could not have an empty gas can in my garage. I told her the empty gas was approved by the US DOT so she would have to take it with them. She had no idea what to say and just hung up. Never heard from her again.

Rate cuts = bearish
There is a reason rate cuts have preceded recessions. The FED can see the economy is faltering and cuts rate to stimulate the economy. September is forecasted to be next rate cut, so the bullrun will last another 2 months

>>60556418
>The FED can see the economy is faltering
The Fed has all the data they need and know what is going on. If they cut rates the cut them late because the want the economy to contract, it makes it cheaper to buy up distressed assets. Like a Boa constrictor they just keep squeezing and tightening their grip. The job of the fed to assist with the wealth transfer from the masses to the 0.01% who control the stock market, bond market, real estate market, banks, insurance, manufacturing.

>>60556418
True but it doesn't matter because rate cuts necessitate money flows out of now lower yielding mmfs into equities so its still bullish. At first.

>>60556430
You sound like a communist

I was thinking about how to profit from greater israel.
They're gonna control the Suez canal, all the oilfields of Syria, Iraq and part of Saudi Arabia.

They're gonna make oil prices go up because they're Jews so they'll charge more for oil. They're also going to tax every ship that goes through the Suez canal right?

Of course we have to assume america spends a few trillion dollars of printed money on subjugating the middle east, destroying iran and taking part of turkey for Israel. The dollar will become toilet paper with the printing.

What other things could greater israel control? Tech companies? They're all Jewish so they might relocate to Israel

>>60556460
You gotta think bigger, the entire world will be greater Israel

>>60556311
In 2013, Amazon hit a P/E of over 1000. The stock was trading at $15. Would you turn that down now?

>>60556534
Amazon's PE was high because it was reinvesting ever last dollar back into the business. Its price to sales was a very reasonable 1.9 back in 2013. I wonder what the price to sales ratio is for Palantir? Let's check shall we?
It's 106. A 106 price to sales ratio for some garbage company selling their garbage "AI".

ai dashcams was discovered with fundamentals analysis

>>60556173
God I wish there was a Buc-ee's near where I lived, I would love to work at one.

>>60556173
Pretty sure Walmart even has similar wages for similar positions.
I feel like yuros are only beginning to see how shafted theyve been.

>>60556460
>I was thinking about how to profit from greater israel.
Think like a warhawk that inside trades.

>>60556460
It's the end times prophecy dingus, sell prepper accessories, hoard gold

>>60556586
The general assessment is the following:
>it pays a lot better than the average going rate in the locale
>it will work you with practically unlimited overtime
>part time was a lie
If you don't mind that, you probably won't have time to spend your wages. On the other hand, if you lose your money on the casino, you won't have long to make it all back waging.

>>60556557

Hypothesize a stock market 15 years from now where palantir hit #1, would you regret buying now?

>>60556376
>shit, like "you can delay your rent payments!"
I get those too. It's a service that splits rent payments by the week, which makes me wonder who the hell uses it.

I always pay on the first in full. My sustenance expenses do not get touched. The rest I can gamble.

>>60556621
If that happens, yes, though in the same way I would regret not buying a winning lottery ticket.

>>60556460
I'm shocked they don't want Cyprus

>>60556659
The Greek shipping oligarchs may not appreciate that. Israeli is a heavily import reliant nation.

>>60556616
Hope for Israel's glassing.

>>60556659
Its a literal ancient prophecy, it has little to do with "want"

>>60556671
The fact that it's an ancient sticky fingers claim doesn't make it any better.

>>60556680
Sure but you framed it as something they were picking and choosing when in reality it was an ancient schizophrenic rambling about nonsense and everyone fell for it

It's Friday, gonna eat some cereal

>>60556011
i didnt sell any shares today lol

i plan to trim my cost basis out but i need to review my notes, not a meme pump anyways so i have time, still only a 110m million market cap, mostly fundamentals from the huge contract (which was actually in public domain from the transit proposal documents since monday, just not announced as news as antone) being discovered by more people

lol that sneaky buyer on monday tho that bought 1 million shares while everyone else was confused and just sold to the unknown buyer

ai dashcams story will soon be finished and my obsession for the past few years will be gone :( but money is the priority

>>60556711
4, 5, 6 I don't really keep track. Sold an ASTS put, took the premium and bought ASTS shares. Got assigned, will sell an ASTS call Monday and buy more ASTS shares with the premium. I betting their sats get launched on a regular schedule this year and next - their service is going to be used by all the big telecoms.

>>60556719
>ai dashcams story will soon be finished
small company with small volume traded. How will you cash out if its that thinly traded?

>>60555833
I'm up 122k+ this week. i'm hoping it continues to rally

>>60556730
dump on the insitutions who are finally getting in, now that it's over $1/100m market cap then that hits the checklist for institutions to buy in for liquidity, practically all the volume until now was basically retail traders
retail traders have the opportunity as long as it's actually a company that's fundamentally strong, but most pennyscams are scams with cashburn and shit balance sheets so they have to dilute shares to survive, thats the only reason i made an exception for ai dashcams since they were actually profitable already for almost 2 years before they ramped up r&d, expansion, marketing etc

TSX.V volume was 2.3m, i dont think it's going to stay at 0.17% institutional ownership for long, even on monday it was over 1m,
and obviously that doesnt even count the OTC volume or ATS (alternate exchanges) volume, actual volume today on Canadian side was 3.8m

mind you i dont recommend buying it anymore, im planning to trim 140k shares next week as more retail traders buy, or more likely some institutional funds buying more, as much as i think it can go higher i have to trim out of risk management
at 110m million market cap it can go higher if it has a clear route to achieving profitable 100m+ revenues, but staying 100% position is just not sustainable for my sleep health

>>60556748
> if it has a clear route to achieving profitable 100m+ revenues,
let me rephrase that, it HAS a clear route
the canadian schoolbus market alone will be almost $200million in just hardware alone over the next 10 years (typical hardware cycle is 6-10 years), never mind recurring revenue for ai video surveillance services and more

the tariffs has made leafs mad and will prioritize my ai dashcams (gatekeeper) because the main competitor SEON is now owned by safefleet which is american so no to that.
meanwhile on the US side they just wont a US$23 million contract with the MTA for next 3 years, and who knows what else they'll win, SEPTA loves them and basically shilled their hardware/services to MTA which is why MTA picked ai dashcams lmao (i.e. savings of up to $22m per year from fraudulent lawsuits)

i love it and fundamentals + price discovery actually worked, mostly because institutions/algos cannot do anything to tickers that have too small liquidity early on, but i'll be selling a good chunk of my shares to take my cost basis out, just for self preservation

AMZN chads are we finally back?

>>60556731
How much did you ultimately start trading with? Did you have a huge 6 figure sum to start or did you grow that over the years from like 25k?

>>60556759
I just got a package from AMZN

>>60555842
congrats bro

>>60556759
>AMZN
I wouldn't be surprised if shipping throughput is down for Amazon. It's down with every major carrier too, which means people are spending less money.

I just went on a snack run today and it is eerie how quiet the shops are. It's a ghost town no matter where I go. Restaurants are barely packed too. I expected it to be way busier. People aren't spending money on Friday, and I'm wondering what it'll look like for the Independence Day holiday.

>>60555806
I don't do business with any of these shitty companies.

next week is the big week
i go from babby hands to chad hands
im going to 10x 1k
then 10x the 10k
then 10x the 100k
then 10x the 1m
i know i can do it

>>60555806
The fuck what a shitty week

>>60556900
why not 20x the first one?

I own shares of a company that holds private equity.
Is there any way for me to obtain more information about that? I want to see the companies they hold & how much. As an owner in the company i believe i am entitled to this. Who do I call?

>its easy as hell to lose 50% on a trade
>near impossible to gain 50%

>>60556915
>Who do I call?
Call the company (investor relations) directly and ask. Check their financial statements, the info is likely in there in the footnotes is not specifically called out

PepsiCo seems to be forming a nice bottom.
Good buy maybe...

redpill me on berkshire. why is it cratering. i thought buffet stepping down was priced in. is the price adjusting to the lack of a buffet premium?

>>60556966
I liked the drink combination when I was a kid. My older siblings thought it was disgusting. It's probably disgusting. I haven't tried it since then.

>>60556989
Try zooming out? Beating the SPY by 2% ytd isn't exactly bad performance especially for an investment as safe and stable as Berkshire.

>>60556992
its beating spy if you dont account for reinvesting dividends. its acttualy going sideways or down depending when you bought in the last decade and a half

>>60557004
Ytd? No berkshire definitely still winning. Spy pays like a 1.5% dividend.

>>60556989
Sidelined

>>60557006
>Spy pays like a 1.5% dividend.
ye and? compare it to an accumulating etf (SXR8, P500) we europoors have that

>>60557014
Okay so you just dont know what ytd means then
Fine
Alright

>>60557016
one moment you say zoom out now you're talking about ytd, keep coping

>>60557021
He said catering so presumably that meant very recent performance i pointed out that recency bias is wrong.

Europoor here, I want FINANCIAL advice

So i started investing in early april with 12k. I have put 2k into btc and 10 k in my portfolio. I own 56 vcwe, 105 wdef and 50 BULL(got them yesterday). I am up 2k realized PL from trading options. I have a margin account.

Is there anything else I can be doing ? Im up 8% in my wdef position, my vcwe position is eating shit due to EURUSD fuckery, and what I basically do every week is run csps on HOOD. Also 1,5k of my gains were eaten to repay credit card debt but it had to be done.

>>60557027
Repay all your debts before you invest any more

>>60557027
Also build and emergency fund so that next time you suddenly need to pay something like that you dont have to touch your gains

>>60557027
>vcwe
>0.22% TER
oy vey

>>60557029
Don't have any debts. Also i havent put any more money in my portfolio, its growint from option premium alone + ive withdrawn some to pay for some other shit too.

I was thinking of getting a 6k loan to invest. My job (military) offers loans, at 4% FIXED interest. 6k with 5 year plan basically means -120 in my salary for 5 years which is pretty manageable actually.

>>60557030
I have another account which is basically my life savings along with my sister (around 70k) but I dont touch that unless it's literal life or death situation.

>>60557027

Yeah its paid in full. I had it ignored for a long time and I realized it could 3x in a few years from ((((interest))))

Cheap

Also its near support, my sl is set at 9.5(52 week low). If it doesn't work I lose like 50 usd. BULL has been catering to third worlders for trading so I assume it can follow HOOD trajectory. If it doesn't i don't care, position size is small anyway and on cash so I can keep it forever.

People don't notice how big their losses are from maintaining a balance like that. Not worth it at all. I see people maintain huge balances on their card and it steals years worth of income over their lifetime.

closed my soxl leaps i bought in apr, $10 strike for a 356% gain. still holding the shares, i think this market is going a fair amount higher. think the dump came from ath profit taking. once the good news starts to roll in; trade deals closing/rate cut we are gonna see some shit ill tell u hwuat. then again there is also the risk of some unforeseen fuckery like israel chimping out with a false flag or cheeto throwing a tanty

>>60557215
>but they do this a lot, so probably no affect on stonks
It's a relic of the past century. A century of colonial btfo (century of humiliation) left the country with a weak judicial system, so they got by with the good ol' boys system of handshake favors and shaky promises. They do not follow orders to the letter. Basically third world power consolidation. The Chinese call it Guan Shui (灌水), or "irrigate to artificially increase weight", or cooking the books.

Because of that, it led to a massive corruption problem where that same quid pro quo system lead to their buddies stealing and pilfering shit from the government. It's incredibly widespread and Xi Xinping is basically trying to purge a lot of that corruption problem from the Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping days. It's getting to the point where it's actually really harmful to the Chinese government. China's worst enemy is from within.

>>60557221
>I feel like this is a reverse 911 joke somehow. "water can't melt steel beams"
Nah, it's just some lulzy news that Chinese military brass stole rocket fuel to sell off and filled it with water to avoid suspicions on weight. No one really knows if the story is true, but there was a lot of angry translated screeching thar really only shows up when translating from Chinese to English, saying that it's disgusting western pigdog lies, and it would be preposterous to believe such foolish nonsense.

>>60557176
Agreed, but I cant invest that money since it's on a joint account with my sister. Its invested by the bank and we get 5k yearly in returns, which is dogshit and I could do better but it is what it is.

>>60557208
just all in on LEAPs switching between companies that might net me 2x return in a year. pretty boring. the best play i made was all in on a crypto miner when BTC was recovering. i used all that gains to switch over to robinhood which doubled my money after they launched robinhood legends/futures. then I used everything to buy 997 leaps on sofi when it got beat the fuck up due to trump tariff announcement. That stock while it is a POS most of the time had cheap as fuck options and consistent earnings beat.
I use https://www.optionsprofitcalculator.com/ to see if the play is worth it

i just got lucky because not all my accounts reflect the same amount of gains. I tried being an active trader. I lost a fuckton of money over the years so I stuck to LEAPs.

>>60555857

>>60557279
ive gravitated to leaps myself in recent times. im glad it worked out for you. you took a fairly large risk in all that but it played out. do you tend to go with itm/atm/otm with your leaps, how do you settle on strike?

>sold some BRZU before the dip
>bought from LVMUY after the dip
>mostly put in cash (BOXX) and sell calls/puts
>positive returns YTD
Basically did nothing
So this is how it feels to be Xi jinping.....

>>60557279
Why run leaps instead pmcc?

>>60555917
>Surely Trump will
LOL that's worked out well..... for Trump & friends.
Also you don't long VIX when it's around 10-20. You short VIX when it's 30-60. Gitgud.

dont mind me just (((very normal))) price action passing on through goys

oh yea someone asked me a little bit ago why do vertical spreads vs simple longs.

- much lower theta decay
- less capital needed
- less risk

>>60557394
You can also do credit spreads with verticals.

Long dated especially, can give you a lot of cash in hand without exposing yourself to catastrophic assignments

>>60557399
interesting. im not familiar with this. what happens if you use the credit to go do something else and lose it? you wouldnt be able to close the spread right?

>>60557378
thanks bro. if i can't judge a price target then its atm or slightly itm but if know the stock is going to hit a certain price then otm for sure

>>60557386
because some of the stocks i'm watching look like potential baggers. I would love to switch over premium chasing and quit my job but I want that million and own a home first.

>>60557411
The spread , similar to selling a call or put, has a market value. To close your position, you need to REBUY it. If the market goes the opposite direction, the value of the option goes up, and you pay more to close it than what you got.

Example:

You sell a crwv bull put spread. Maximum loss is the difference between short and long leg, let's say 1k. You receive 500 usd instantly. You can do whatever you want with it.

Now let's say crwv moons. This causes the legs of the spread to lose value rapidly. Now you can rebuy it for cheaper than the credit you received, and profit. Or even let it reach 0 value eventually.

Opposite? Crwv dumps. Both legs gain value. Now you have to buy it at higher price than the premium you got. You have a loss.

>>60557394
Does it beat holding the underlying though?
Every meme strategy ive seen underperforms simply buying the underlying..

>>60557442
Credit spreads pay you for the underlying not dumping.

>>60556181
its really insane and the average europoor doesn't even understand how bad this is and the government controls it all so your retirement age constantly goes up and if you die before it the government gets to keep the money as it wont be an inheritance like for americans that have personal retirement funds instead of the commie pyramid scheme

gigantic cash float they haven't brought to bear yet. Market is pricing-in a good economy, so uninvested cash is seen more as a liability than an asset. Add-in some uncertainty about the new guy, and you have Berkshire seeming less prestigious than it used to. If things go south though, than BRK is as good an investment as you can make.

Meme article that means nothing

>>60557328
>I think I'll go in on pltr finally
DCA it, right now. If you're gonna dump a lot of money in it, wait for a pullback

I don't get it, why are europoors and bongheads not just hedging their USD exposure (I have been). I mean this even for index investors, I'm pretty sure the USD is going to keep sliding. Does anybody know of a bullish case for USD, I cant' think of a single reason it would go up outside of safe heaven short term spike days.

There is a fee drag, but as long as BoE or ECB rates are lower than FEDs the drag is very small for decent indexes. What am I getting wrong here, or am I right? (I'm a bongland) Thank u anons

>>60557328
>market will crash
nah July 4th week is historically very green. we already got our daily pullback Friday. it's going up.

Anons waiting on pullback which won't come.

Did the no portfolio faggots thank Trump for the all time highs or did they all slit their faggot wrists?

I'm still 4% down on my ETF since december.....

came here to say i'm mad i missed out on that little pullback on SPY around noon. checked it and it was $616 but i was busy with something. that was a perfect time to short, then i checked it again around 2 and it was down to $611. unfortunately i was signing paperwork for a job.

>>60558000
It is a meme article but it's still funny

I thought you get money when you close the csp position, but you actually get money upfront.

It took me like 2 weeks to understand this.

Should I just buy 1 year ITM leaps on big companies like nvida and palantier?

Isn't it basically guaranteed gains?

>>60558395
you could, holding the stock in this case is also guaranteed gains. heck even buying something like NVDL would work

>>60558395
>Isn't it basically guaranteed gains?
>guaranteed gains
this board is amazing

>>60558415
but holding the stock wont give you bilion x leverage like those weird options that people always claim to go up 1k%

>>60558428
difficult to get returns like that from leaps

its time to short nvda

>>60558435
Big if true

>>60558415
>you could, holding the stock in this case is also guaranteed gains.
yeah but I'm looking to amplify my gains and retire early
isn't ITM leaps like 3x what normally holding the stock would be
I could double my money in 6 months

>>60558430
Leaps can be 2x-3x your money

>>60558456
The issue with leaps as a long term strategy is a crash like 08 wipes you out, so you can only put like 10% of your port so you have room to average down

>>60558395
that depends. the name of the game is expecting the stock to hit a price target before theta decay rapes your ass. where do you see nvda and pltr in 3-4 months?

Bull bros... what did Trumpsan mean by this?

>>60558464
>10% of your port
you can put more if you're lucky enough to buy while the companys trading under book value

pic related was early on for me before i put more money into ai dashcams but the only reason i was able to put so much into ai dashcams in the first place was because i was making lopsided plays prior to that

>>60558509
probably up, but with deep ITM leaps I have a year.
It would multiply my gains 2-3x over owning the underlying stock.
And if I did this consistently, I would benefit from compounding.

For the options guys, do you have day jobs or is this a full time thing? I get the gains potential, but are you constantly monitoring your options throughout the trading day/day trading? Or just checking everything at open? Or what. What's your typical holding period on calls

There are bubble cities where the people with money gravitate and things are generally comfy. You might find that the populations share much ancestry with other Europeans. This country is very much a city by city basis.
