Buy SBSW

im getting raped on my options today

Honestly is it ever worth buying options more than a couple weeks out? If it starts moving against you you're fucked anyways and the premiums are always retarded high especially for anything that ever moves. Plus things crab so often you're really just hoping it decides to run a bit in the short term.

Seems I have a lot better luck with weeklies rather than any time I k try and go months out.

I am on a DCA plan to buy on the first of every month, and i told myself that for every 10% drawdown in the market I will add an extra month's worth.

Unless the market crashes I will be "all in" around Christmas time.

Feel free to buy until then, it will only crash after I make the final purchase.

>>60611107
God has personally decided to destroy my deep in the money calls. It has been a really bad week.

You cut your hair. That's like 10 pounds of muscle down the drain.

>>60611111
Going way way out on leaps can be good

>>60611135
I refuse to buy deep in the money options anymore. It seems safer, but it is very risky.

>>60611132
Steroids.

Also, i think you need to push your muscles to the "breaking point", you want your muscles to get micro-damaged, and then heal, thats how they bulk.

But mainly steroids, theyre all juicing.

>>60611132
Copy a real lifters schedule and stop doing normal guy stuff

Bulk/cut cycle, eat like 6k calories a day for 6 months,smash pr's, then go auchwitz for 6 months

>>60611132
let me guess - you used to be a renegade? liked to fool around?

>>60611132
SS+GOMAD

>>60611132
>watching what I eat
That's the problem. You need to eat a calorie surplus, and make sure you have enough protein to build muscle.
If you're an average man try to eat at least 2600 calories, if not 3000.

Can this clown chart go the fuck down

>>60611132
It is not in fact hip to be square

I would like to issue a formal apology to the anon who said that GOOGL would hold above $180 today. I solded yesterday because I'm as slow as IE.

>>60611242
needs more eggs.

>>60611216
I think he should try eating the leaves from the tops of the trees instead of all the berries and shit that's on the ground so he can grow his neck boss.

man, it really is over.

This is the most fraudulent market ever

You guys think we could see $100 per ounce silver by the end of the month?

>>60611355
i should just have kept silver longs

Is this a sign to buy bonds?

I wouldn't touch them because I think yields will naturally go higher.
But I also think the Fed will intervene and put a ceiling on yields.

In any case I'm not getting involved.
Sucks for all the banks and pension funds with bonds on their balance sheets.

>>60611355
I'm down about $8000. Most of my money.
So yeah it is a fucking joke of a market. Scams and bullshit. But for me I no longer believe I can ever get ahead. I'm fucked by God himself.

What’s up with TLT? Down 1.4% today

>>60611372
The contrarian in me tells me BUY BONDS GET RICH 100% TMF

time to all in shorts with max leverage

I just got back into the market for the first time in 8 months, and I see the MAGApedes are trying to shill this CLBR blank check spac? Kek baggies. Kek.

ZENA and RCAT got a few thousand from me today. I think they'll run in the next few months. Few 6month leaps in NVDA and AVGO.

Any golden geese from you boys?

>>60611422
Silver is going to $200 per ounce boss.

>>60611111
well how bullish are you

imagine buying leaps in NVDA and SMCI, or even steady eddies like META, AMZN, AVGO etc...

Yeah if you buy leaps in some perma crab shit stock or something really boring (NIKE, etc...) then yes you will be theta'd. Still gotta somewhat follow forward market trends

My .02 anyways, for whatever its worth

>>60611088
I am ready.

>>60611431
You buying hard assets, mining stock, or something else?
>>60611443
*leaps in NVDA and SMCI when they were going crazy, I should specify*

also thank fuck they killed all that registration bullshit, did they finally de-jeet this place

>>60611422
I recently bought some AVWS alongside VWCE and so far it's doing great: it goes up more on good days, and goes down more on bad days

They have zero overlap, both are worldwide and derive returns from different sources.

I was looking for extra risk, volatility and returns over a long period, without having exposure into a specific country or sector, and without leverage.
Therefore it's perfect and performs exactly how I wanted.

This is for my 90% of my portfolio which is broad index funds and NEVER SELL territory. The other 10% is for gambling but I can't find anything worth gambling on right now.

anyone slurping visa? down 3% today

HIGHER

>>60611443
>>60611456
I actually bought Nvidia calls at the tarrif bottom for a couple months out but I sold on a 2x. They went on to 8x though. I think monthly are not for me it's better to keep it short.

OSCR bros is it over

Can you imagine the fact that AMD was under $100 and some people still didn't buy? Lmao do you just hate money or something?

>>60611456
SLV options. waiting for the second dog to lift its leg up on the faces of (((those people))) who shorted silver boss.

>>60611502
My brother asked me about buying AMD when it was like $2?
Am I misremembering or was it really $2 around 7-8 years ago?

I told him I wouldn't and I didn't. I had other tech stocks at the time and they did great. I told him but he never bought any of the other ones. He just spent the cash.
He still has a grudge and it was an important lesson for me. Just keep my mouth shut about these things.

>>60611509
more like 9 years ago but yeah

>>60611509
I remember it around $7-$12 in 2017

>>60611475
Kinda looks like a fast down but slow up situation

>>60611466
Based euroanon, not super familiar with those ETFs but I'm sure if you keep putting it in you'll get a decent return over a long period like you said

>>60611503
atta guy, just took a peek at some leaps and surprisingly low premium for atm or itm. Maybe i'll grab a few. Are you way outta the money or playing it safe

>>60611485
my biggest regret was watching NVDA go to double digits while I sat on the sidelines. so you still did better than me

>/smg/ arguing for short dated calls
what a world what a world

>>60611537
I'm ITM.

Lads:
Around March I began looking up this investing thingy. Four months have passed and I have read a bunch of book (all the reading list on If You Can: How Millenials Can Get Rich Slowly) and began with The Intelligent Investor.

I have also made a crude portfolio goal of
>35% Euro stocks (no UK) as I'm an Europoor
>10% Euro bonds
>7,5% Euro small caps
>30% S&P 500
>7,5% USA small caps
>5% global mining
>5% emerging markets

I initially dumped a stack into the S&P to see how it feels. Now I have to play catch-up with all other items until they're balanced. For this purpose I'll be directing 20% of my earnings there as soon as I get them.

I have also a sandbox set aside with a smaller slice of my NW, and the rule there is that any addition there must be "taxed" by a 133.33...% contribution to the main portfolio. The idea being that sure, I can gamble, but only as long as I'm willing to save hard AND be willing to deprive myself of other non primary expenses.

I would appreciate /smg/'s feedback on this.

>>60611551

>>60611551
people really be nerdy like this instead of just making money

>>60611475
I have bought Visa every time it has dropped sharply and it has always been the correct decision. The company is one of the closest things to a money printer and temporary declines in the share price are simply an opportunity to accumulate more.

>>60611422

Bern a while since i heard about spacs. Any promising ones out there?

ah fuck i should have held my spy $624p for a 2x instead of being Reasonable and Taking Profit at 20% on 0dte puts

>double checked
>not on wsb

Shocked.

who the fuck said jannies are SOXL posting?
I've been banned twice for posting about SOXL, if anything jannies hate SOXL trannies

>>60611431
So going back to this, you have a bull thesis?

Green energy boom? Harder to mine?

>>60611659
big beautiful tariffs disturbing supply, bankers no longer manipulating the price down

>>60611659
Mother of all short squeezes. The silver skitzos were fucking right all along. You just had to listen boss.

>>60611544
line goes up, simple as

sloorpin into close?

>>60611454
good, but buy a lot of shares, options will most likely scare you out of the position

What

I don't think this is good.
Markets don't like surprises.
Bond markets especially.

>>60611693
I'm thinking of very OTM SLV calls for the end of the year. Do you think silver ATH will be this year?

Jerome Powell is considering resigning. This shortly after US Treasury announces a $27 billion monthly surplus for June, meaning the tariffs are working.

ok so Im not asking for spoonfeeding boys, I have 0% in any precious metals, but can you go into more detail

I know that it's extremely conductive, and solar panels use a fuckton of it at 15-25 ounces for their contacts. EVs use a ton too, so it's a no brainer that as all this EV shit takes off, the price should go up....

...but, I see that as a steady climb over the next 10-20 years. As for now, how is it shorted, how is it being manipulated. what catalyst is going to shake up the status quo specifically?

>>60611729
>>60611741
so
what happens now

>>60611763
biden inflation coming back from rates getting cut too hard

>>60611763
Here comes the water. It comes to wash away the sins of you and I. When it's time, you'll see. Like holy water. It only burns you faster than you'd ever dry.

>>60611741
Hilarious but also like 90% of people had the same take so its not something worth suiciding over

>>60611769
That means stocks also inflate though.
What to buy what to BUY DAMMIT?!?

>>60611763
nothing

I hate weekends:(
This week
Monday-Thursday: 4x +1500~
Friday: -400

Still felt like a bad week. Next Week everything Go Up for real this time please

>>60611775
>not gonna slither your way outta this jam

>>60611778
anything leveraged

$wolf baggy status?

>>60611778
this would make sense if current economy made sense
but current economy is all smoke, mirrors and hype so everything rises and falls at once
if dollars starts falling off a cliff stocks are sure to follow

>>60611729
who is that anyway? why does this fannie thing keep getting mentioned

>>60611754
no. fuck tay posters, go short tsla with everything you have

>>60611805
I'm expecting rate cuts along with treasury/bond buy backs. The government does not want to pay 5% on $38T of debt.

SPY will hit a new ATH in the last 10 minutes

Chrome turned off my adblocker and 4chanx so I switched to chrome today. sell your alphabet stocks now.

>>60611782
yeah red days are super hard to trade

I thought EXFY was supposed to take off because of them being in the F1 movie...

So hear me out guys. Ive been all inning on trending stocks for the past few days and selling at the end of the day and have made 25 k so far. Went all in on AVBE for the day yesterday and today went all in on INKT. Thoughts?

Is pepsi a good buy for the long term or dead money?

I don't care much for the soda industry but the snack business is still good. If things get bad enough will they spin it off?

>>60611814
no u

I'm not sure I buy the idea that there is widespread spoofing over the long term, I just think green market will drive it up. Plus COMEX inventories are low and going lower

we shall see. and fuck that shit stock TSLA

>>60611857
switched to brave rather.

>>60611881
>If things get bad enough will they spin it off?
they won't really be hit by much since soda production is all domestic
don't count on profit, but they will probably at least keep up with inflation

>>60611892
I wouldn't short Alphabet, which is the parent company to Chrome browser. They do AI stuff and have been redeeming employees for H1Bs boss.

i was bullish, but not bullish enough it seems

My $62 covered calls for iBit all executed and I'm losing all my shares at a massive loss and will have zero positions.

I think I will buy back in to this PayPal dip Monday but that stock has been dead money for so long, doesn't really make sense with all the positives.

>>60611902
-0.47% today, about flat on the week. Still beating the SP 500 YTD but it's close.

>>60611940
+0.12% today. Crab week overall.

I don’t think I’ve ever lost a week to the S&P since lib day maybe, i guess becuase I mostly slurp and sell recovery the downside doesn’t tend to brutalise me, and the memestock picks from you guys give a little upside, so thanks everyone

>>60611940
+1.8% day
+4.8% week

Silver futures hit $39.20. We'll be in the $40 range next week. No more overhead resistance to $50. ATHs next few weeks. See you at $70.

>>60611940
+0.41
Up and down with a lot of excitement in the last minutes of the day. PLTR went from green to red, TSLA went from red to green. NVDA led AMD for most of the day, but swapped positions at the end. Quantums dumped.
We need an Uma Musume clone that tracks the market.

>>60611741
Its not about tariffs or interest rates, Powell approved a $2.5 billion remodel of the Fed, which is totally insane, and demonstrates he is total idiot and he cannot defend that decision. That will be his downfall. The bill for the remodel is supposed to be paid for my the US taxpayers, even though the Fed is a private bank.

>>60611959
technically you only lost potential gains, you’re still up overall unless something went horribly wrong

>>60611959
thats because paypal sucks. they steal your money and the site modernization made it unusable

>>60612032
We can't just have the F. E. & D. looking like a run down titty bar. We should remodel it so that it is big and imposing, so that the zoomers fear the F. E. & D. and understand who's in charge here boss.

YTD: -16.17%

I think I'm gaining a bit even as markets drop because the USD is strengthening over the EUR
It's also why I'm down this year

THis is the final straw that broke the camel's back. I am going to short GOOGL, dogshit anti-consumer product. I'll be installing Firefox for browsing, OpenAI for AI, open source software to replace Android.

>>60612359
That very well may be, but where are you going to get your e-mails boss?

>>60612359

Turns out the Air India crash was a pilot suicide. How will that affect Boeing?

>>60612587
I'm up, but I don't know how much. Silver has been treating me well

Why? They didin't know they went kaput?

>>60612592
Uh huh, so how many millions do you have? If you could consistently make 2.5% a week, you could turn $5k into like $10 million in a year, larping faggot

>>60612700

>>60612657

>>60611812
So, buy bank stocks?

>>60611111
theta decay intensifies as the option approaches expiry, so you've got to be right on timing

>>60612669
I run the wheel so W/L is always really high in the long term. Been selling SOXL options lately. Usually aim for 20 Delta options 1-1.5 weeks from expiry. I'll hedge if a hedge option is cheap but usually I'll just use options to pin. Haven't had too much of an issue, at 20 Delta it takes a sizable move down before assignment is on the table.

>>60611940
8% today
11% week

most from sept calls on USIO finally showing some signs of strength, also a mix of my defense tickers getting new contracts.

surprise was my SDST play, I found them through their broker dealer, Aegis capital.
don't buy any ticker associated with Aegis for long term holding. But since SDST just got their first private placement from Aegis, figured they'll at least get one pump, and it happened after hours. Now I'll just put a stop loss and what happens happens, not expecting anything outside of a monday pump, any company that Aegis touches eventually goes to near zero, but with a few bumps in the chart so they can sell off the shares, get their commission, then usually the price slowly or quickly craters. every single chart of every single company outside of one lone success story looks the same, exponential slope to zero with a few bumps.

Really its fascinating once ya look behind the curtain of some of these smallcap broker dealers, they have 20+ finra violations, and most of the companies they deal out are unprofitable buzzword tickers. Reminds me of the business that Jordan Belfort ran in Wolf of Wall Street, they just play by the rules a bit more so they don't get shut down.

Powell leaving wont do anything because the entire board of fed governors decides policy not whoever is put in place of the top chair

WEAT

>>60612894
That shit really as good as I always thought it would be? I mean what kind of consistency do you get? Its like 600k or whatever for 1 spy covered call, and you get like $500-1000 a week on it? Seems really capital intensive for little return.

>>60612970
No nevermind you'd do 10 lots, so 5k to 10k a week.... its like 1% a week, shits pretty fucking goddamn good boss.

>>60612947
No you moron, by firing Jay you send a message that none of them are safe and they change their tune real quick boss.

>>60612990
nobody can fire the feds

>>60612592
>He writes contracts
One wrong move and this nigga is felted overnight

>>60612998
Oh yeah? Remember when that Luigi mother fucker fired a CEO, anybody can fire anyone boss.

>>60612551
>Jeet self-delete
Massive pump

Oh fuck that OILU position I opened when Israel started hitting Iran finally turned positive again and I didn't even notice boss.

>>60613031
Do you have no actual life or do you have a chatbot type shit for you?

I think there might be a bug in my spreadsheet...
It says one of my positions has gained 48,533,913.70% this month

>>60613042
I am watching a baseball game and fucking around on my phone. What's your excuse for giving me the (you) boss?

>>60611132
caloric surplus, likely.

>>60611763
nothing. Powell isn't going to resign and this shit it just Trump's Powell derangement syndrome being manifested via one of his appointees. Nothing ever happens.

>>60612947
Powell is not resigning anyway. The adminstration isngas lighting and lying to create confusion and spectacle.
What you note is very important about the fed chair. Getting rid of Powell early or waiting till his term ends next year changes nothing besides one vote on the board. Doesn't matter who Trump puts in his place. The head of the Fed does not set rates on their own. The board works together to set rates. This fact has been purposefully left out of all administration and media narratives.

>>60611132
you forgot donkey milk enemas. worked for cleopatra, and she turned egyptian generational debt into control of cyprus and free roman gold
100 bagger bad bitch right there

>>60613013
>Remember when that Luigi mother fucker fired a CEO
That's less a firing, but more a forced retirement. Firing implies the possibility for future labor.

>>60613009
>>60612970
>>60612977
I'd still personally lean into indexes so there's no early assignment ... although 20 delta is pretty far OTM so, yeah.

My IP has been changing since I was driving and mobile posting. But yeah, lower value stock prices are better than higher price ones. Options prices do go up with stock price, but not at an even pace. SOXL is great because it's leveraged which bakes in volatility + it's comparatively low priced. You can sell 40 $25 strike puts with 100k. And if SOXL dips you can turn around and sell a near ATM call option unless it blows all the way down to 5 delta strike prices, and ATM calls print money.
>It'll turn against you!
Sell options on shit you don't mind hodling and that issue goes away.

They are "Get rich slowly people".

If you are serious, Take a look.

They will pick apart your plan and simply it "Three funds".

If you're making less than 100k a year, you should work on improving your income before worrying about investing. You'll improve your situation immeasurably by focusing on your career at first (diminishing returns after around $100k though)

Tax advantaged retirement plan if it is available.

Low ER mutual funds around .015 or ETFs at .03.

It can work if you have 40 years.

I agree though, a lot of the posts ask how they can retire on 50 million dollars and what tax strategy they can use.

Still though, for a young person started early, it's a solid plan.

I understand your post. SPY is for trading though, VOO, IVV, or FXAIX.

You guys are retarded. This is obviously them trying to pressure Powell into resigning by putting out a rumor that he's considering doing so.
JPow has consistently said he intends to serve until the end of his tenure. There's no reason for him to resign and this retarded "muh 1.6 billion r renovation" is just another smear attack to muck rake any reason at all to pressure him to resign.
Trump can seethe about interest rates until the end of JPows term, then he'll appoint the next guy only to bitch when the rest of the fed chairs continue to vote to keep rates high or just barely lower them at best.

Start with the basics.

Emergency fund
Tax advantaged retirement plans- 401K or Roth IRA.
Dollar cost averaging and living below your means.

Hope you are healthy and live to retire.

ur right i just did the opposite to recover from an impatient decision lol
i sold at a new ATH then bought back into the pullback when i realized i was making a huge mistake trimming a winning position out of fear instead of letting winners ride to my actual price target

so far in a tiny timeframe of a couple weeks it's looking good i managed to time (or rather i created the bottom since im a whale now) on ai dashcams lmao

>>60613342
>I dreamed I woke up and got ambushed in the hallway
It is the stress. I had something similar happen myself. I took a sleeping pill rather than deal with it. Slept about 12 hours. In that time I had two dreams:
>dream one I was in a basement fighting this giant spider and I managed to survive
>dream two a repeat of dream one but this time the basement lights were off. I managed to get that fucking spider good. Stabbed it over and over. It was the size of a horse lying down. it was like I had to do this all again at higher difficulty.

So yes the stress of losing lots of money really sucks.

>>60613419
>So yes the stress of losing lots of money really sucks.
either the risk is too much, or you dont understand enough about your holdings to be more confident

people who own $500K+ houses, it's basically like owning $500K of a single stock where you get dividends (equivalent to rent money) every month
people dont panic because of how they understand their asset
the same is true with stock, whether that comes with understanding the fundamentals, or being retarded and not understanding the risk they put themselves in. The 200iq and 50iq person, both can make huge gains, while the 100iq midwit just matches SPY gains

Should I sit in the front seat
or sit in the back seat?

it's only been a months tho
if anything the lesson is to be patient after holding strong for years already, not prematurely cum at the first sign
the natural urge for me is to take profit when u see fluctuation, ive let that urge momentarily take me for a week while i cooled down and reviewed my notes sitting on cash, thats a mistake ive done many times as well, IMO the hard part is to hold and follow the fundamental analysis, 200m market cap since the market share they already have will grow to 100m+ annual revenues, not the first time they've hit consecutive 30%-70% CAGR growth

ur right desu american ai stocks have outperformed my ai dashcams but i wouldnt have been able to accumualte so much if it wasn't lagging behind
i mean ai dashcams was under a 50 million market cap with their metrics, how can anyone resist

looking back tho when i focused more on US i did have bigger gains lmao
2018-2020 was me beiing stupid new and focusing on canadian weed stocks, didnt start seeing better gains when i got burnt out on animal crossing by april 2020 and started looking at US stocks around may/june 2020 (missed the fking march 2020 dip cause of animal crossing fuck me, just sat on cash through that)

How to deal with blackmail?

if im not a millionaire by 2028 ive failed and held on for too long and the ai bubble burst

i think it's more like 1998 tho not 1999, we are not outpacing fundamentals just yet, it's just shitty cash making it look like that, do not baghold cash

>>60613479
>Try living with crohn's disease
I can't convey with words to make you understand how funny of a statement that was to me.

So I'll just say this. I have multiple auto immune disorders. The worst of which ulcerative colitis is very similar and ruined my life. The other two psoriasis and arthritis have caused their share of pain also. All 3 made my 20's not very fun.

>>60613542

I got stuck holding PLTR for a couple years. It ended up paying out big for me but I feel your pain. Sometimes you just gotta sit on the sidelines. In the last few months I'm up over 20k CAD. At this rate I should be able to hit a 200k portfolio before the end of the year if I'm lucky.

wtf... I invested in a bunch of boxes of rice-a-roni since they were on sale at KR the other day (buying the dip) and I thought they would be easy meals, but turns out they're a lot of fucking work?!

>>60613515
There are no tax incentives for Canada. I spent like 2 hours autistically comparing every Candian-domiciled ex-North America ETF on stockanalysis and VIDY trumped all of the ones I compared it to. Is there any catch? I'm just following the guidelines for a simple 3 fund portfolio leaning mostly on US funds and then a domestic and international fund. Did I do good?

I'm not in much of a mood to talk about my pain. Though if you want advice I suggest two supplements:
>d3+k2 (taking this decreases auto immune reactions and studies have shown it works even better taking it long term, like for years)
>quercetin w/ bromelain (the second part there just makes the antioxidant absorbed better and while there are many antioxidants I've found quercetin helps me)
>ox bile (mixed results for me depending on brand, but it may help decrease GI inflammation) Note: I don't take this now. The drug I'm on (Stelara) increases liver enzymes, proving there is a connection.

>>60613634

After games got shitty and computers got sufficiently efficient and powerful, I kinda stopped looking to build my own PC. Newegg fell off my radar because of that.

These days I run a rugged laptop. It runs what I want fine (along with the old games), plus the display is bright enough to use outdoors, which I'm finding is so useful that I bring the laptop everywhere and use the phone as a hotspot. If I recall correctly, it's about 1400 nits of brightness. The hotswap batteries are a big plus too.

How did UNH drop so low? Seems like a massive discount. Am I missing something?

>>60613715
UNH is still under investigation and given the chicanery they've done to maximize shareholder value, the Department of Justice is guaranteed to find something that will make UNH a long-term baghold. Any patient-focused reform will also be money that doesn't go towards making stock go up, so that may spook shareholders.

>>60613715
Maybe you are missing the massive losses insurance companies are projecting on the insurance exchanges and that Trump's bill is expected to make not only the exchanges subsidies be gone, but in general are projected to have over 4 million people lose health insurance. Maybe more by now. So yeah, less profit, less people paying for insurance. Oh right, Trump is also trying to cut foreign drug imports with tariffs. So yeah, I expect it to go down more.

Wait, I'll add this one. A patient is basically a consumer, so this is a fitting analogy:

>The CFPB’s funding limit, which is adjusted each year for inflation, is $823 million for the 2025 fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30, according to the Congressional Research Service. (It has risen from $598 million in 2013.)

>With a 6.5% cap, the CFPB’s funding would have been maxed out at $446 million this year, a roughly 46% reduction.

>Chi Chi Wu, director of consumer reporting and data advocacy at the National Consumer Law Center, said a slimmer budget would likely mean greater challenges with policing financial firms, especially large institutions.

>"It takes a lot of resources to go after the big dogs,” Wu said.

>“It was already David and Goliath,” she said. “This just makes the situation worse. Now you have half a David.”

>The CFPB didn’t return a request for comment.

>Same watchdog duties, less money
>The CFPB has three primary functions, Wu said: enforcement of laws on the books; supervising financial firms (kind of like a bank examiner, but with a consumer protection mission); and fielding consumer complaints.

>The agency recouped $21 billion in relief for more than 205 million consumers since its inception, according to CFPB data as of Dec. 3.

>Over that time it had imposed more than $5 billion of penalties on financial firms and fielded about 7 million consumer complaints, the majority of which were about credit reports, according to agency data.

There will only be deregulation. You will be at the mercy of companies. And you shall have none.

The correct approach would be to tell those companies to punish them and tell them how to behave and if they don't they won't be allowed to do business in "the greatest shop of the world". Basically the same argument Trump has for tariffs. But for whatever reason, he does not do it for the american companies. Why? He does not care about the american people.

Just how many more months of ATH do you need to consider leaving? I already want to put like half back into cash for slurping after the claws lol.

The only viable strategy for retail investors is buy-and-hold, as to day-to-day operations you are literally just an ignorant goy sitting outside the boardroom where world elites and banks determine the prices of shares and what will be bought and sold. Over the short and medium-term the market is completely rigged and I'm sure that despite all the regulations insider trading and tip-offs govern 98% of big transactions.
