Test

>>60726790 (OP)
Tell me about 40y debt cycle.

>>60726790 (OP)
someone backtest a dca strat that only buys in feb, august, and september

>>60726851
It would do worse than a strat that didn't buy in Feb, Aug and Sept. You want to buy when things are rising, not when they're stale. And both of those strats would do worse than a strat that just always bought.

>>60726817

What broker would you guys recommend a europoor to use? At first I just want to mess around with a couple hundred euros without getting fucked by fees.
IBKR seems to be recommended by many but I wonder what you use.

>report bad numbers
>get fired
Now that the US has gone full commie, I guess I should move all my money into gold?

>>60726963
IBKR is great and v low fees especially for forex, it’s just somewhat unfriendly (mobile ui, the slow signup)

>>60727023
It's about the revision. The margin of error. But she should sue if she/they just followed protocol and did what they always do. As mentioned in the previous thread. How did government jobs get revised down. This should be the safest source of info/data. Did state governments just make shit up or what? From 73k down to 11k. And the previous +7k in May turned to -50k.

>>60727023
>does a bad job
>gets fired

>>60727078
Don't they revise it down every month? Who gives a shit about all the fake stats being created by governments

>>60727107
Well, the market would not have pumped another 150 points higher from 6280 if those numbers were given on the initial report. And me as a Bobo would also not have lost a bit of money. Likewise Mumus now have lost a bit after buying last week and now getting the real data. Almost as if it was intentional.

>>60727111
This entire market is fake and gay, has been since covid.
It is never allowed to go down again

>>60727111
>>60727107
On that note. The market ignored the heavily contradicting ADP that was negative. This month ADP was positive. So these faggots will now follw the ADP and since this seemed fine we'll probably pump next week.

There better be a bounce on monday or I’m financially sad

>>60727078
they always make mistakes. this is being blown out of proportion. powell should step up and say something here, he knows better. the big wallet is going to do what it does regardless of the numbers, and the revisions are to try to make it accurate. both government and adp are prone to error, why i don't know but this lady should not be the one getting humiliated in front of the country for what is a flawed process. i could be wrong here, she could very well be corrupt or inept, but she's being turned into a scapegoat because interest rates happen to be a big political issue and powell stupidly said his actions were dictated by government job numbers, putting this lady on the spot. he was lying in the first place and the comments have been misconstrued in the second place. again, i could be wrong here, but first take is that this lady is taking the blame for what are other people's wrongdoing, mostly powell.

>>60727157
How the fuck is this now Powell's fault?

Might as well be DOGE's fault since the government jobs are a major part of these revisions. And the tariffs are a reason for companies not hiring or laying off people. Manufacturing also got revised down. That which tariffs were supposed to revive.

My FXI investment is up 20% since I bought it. Im currently living and working in China. Haven't worked out how to exchange FXI shares for sex yet though. Beers are 70c though.

>>60727167
>how is this powell's fault?
nobody would care about today's job numbers if it weren't for what he said after the meeting. initial numbers are almost always wrong, that's why they have the revision process.
>the rest of your comment
what? you're on some different stuff now. i don't even know how to respond... trump tweeted this lady out and shamed her in front of the country. that's what i'm talking about. i can't tell you why the numbers are unreliable, i just know they are and always have been. and why they are bad or good is a different issue entirely.

>>60727182
>nobody would care about today's job numbers
everyone would have carde becasue it paints the admin as fucking incompetent regardless of poweell.Any sign of weakness is gonna get a spotlight.

>>60727182
>nobody would care about today's job numbers if it weren't for what he said after the meeting.
What did he say?

They always cared. They actually cared more and more about jobs with time than about inflation. Previously misses on inflation would have caused at least one red day. Now it does nothing. PCE going higher, missing, previous report getting revised higher each month. It was obvious even the inflation numbers are unreliable, except that there is a trend for upwards revisions.

Investors didn't give a fuck about inflation anymore, it was all jobs.

>what? you're on some different stuff now. i don't even know how to respond
Yes, now I also understand that you meant she's getting blamed because of Powell's words and not that Powell is responsible for the numbers.

>the numbers move the market
typical /biz/ misconceptions. more proof /bant/ won. enjoy squabbling over nonsense. what's important here is that a nice lady's feelings have been hurt and people need to apologize.

>>60727075
Thanks. I'll probably try out IBKR.

Well I could immediatelly tell of your pictures it is you, but I still tried to argue. Whatever, go back and keep on blogposting.

a stock like MSTY having a share price below NAV means its oversold right?
people got spooked at btc dropping and dumped all crypto related stocks?
the holdings are mostly treasuries and such so it shouldn't be affected to the point of dropping below NAV or dropping more than MSTR
RIGHT?????!

>>60727198
But you are right about your last part. MAGAretards are actually witchhunting this woman now. Literally demented.

If they are people at all, because there's probably 50% bots on twitter if not more by now. I see MAGAspastics liking my comments or following me, manufactured accounts. And I don't think it's provocative. It's just all bots.

>>60727211
>oversold
kinda ya, if you think the underlying asset itself is priced right, but when an instrument is priced below nav it's often a sign the assets are gonna drop further. not always, possibly a buying opportunity. it means just what it says and nothing more though, that the instrument is priced below it's net asset value. happens a lot. you're lucky i'm here, otherwise you'd have to rely on the /biz/ regulars for answers. basically it's another situation where you should trust your feelings and not the numbers. many such cases.

So tl;dr did the jobs number report lady actually fuck up the report this time? Was Trump right?

>>60727078
Didn't trump fire a shitload of people and cut a shitload of funding? that's probably where those jobs went

>>60727079
Yes I’m sure the replacement will do a much better job of saying how great everything is or else face entire family sent to the camp. Now everyone invest things are so good

>>60727023
>breaks the economy
>get broken numbers
Anybody that expected otherwise is a complete idiot. Period. Expect more nonsensical shit out of nowhere in the coming months, because that's exactly what happens in such circumstances. But hey, let's buy when the thermometer is broken and shows 3.5 roentgens, surely that's a good idea!

So sad that Steve Jobs died of Figma.

Fired for inaccuracy not for putting out negative data

>>60726817
Its called the long term debt cycle formally, 75-100years. 40y is only one half of the cycle, where rates are hiking for 40years then cutting for 40years

Covid has caused the long term yields to break out so we are in the early stages of the hiking cycle. Trump may get a couple cuts but it will be short lived, inflation will reignite and hikes will resume. This also doesnt mean powell is doing the right thing, you cant just hike faster to get it over with or hold and pretend it goes away. The best term I would use is "managed decline". The wheels are in motion and we at at the mercy of the market

>>60726851
There’s no scenario where you’d outperform someone who just buys year round

I just found out that ULTY isn't only covered calls, meaning they make money off volatility in bear markets too

No, reminds me of Sears right before they went under, its about liquidity

it'll go back to 550-600 within a year or less

Has anyone ever had an order even go through outside RTH? I genuinely don’t think I ever have, even in premarket weekdays trading fairly liquid amerishit

Does anyone else here worry about AI a lot? I keep reading articles and posts that claim mass unemployment is imminent. Keeps me up at night.

>>60727107
If those fake stats result in a taxable event like realized capital gains then they should be looked into. I know it’s a huge grey area and tough to prove but I wouldn’t put it past any government to use these announcements as a way to generate tax revenue.

Trump is going to dismantle the United States constitution.

Unh did nothing wrong and they are a nothing burger

>>60727755
I think its a nothing burger to be honest. It won't have a major effect on the company
The company own revenue and dividend puts it at 550 minimum
So unless Trump cuts the company up (he won't). it'll go back up eventually. They'll give him a few million and he'll support them

Something that has been on my mind over the past 2 days

Trump seems to push the idea of countries buying American energy in exchange for trade deals.
The South Korea deal includes $100bn of LNG purchases.
The EU deal includes $750bn of LNG purchases.
Pakistan is getting its first ever American crude cargo from Vitol soon.
India is turning away from Russian oil and IOC bought American crude instead.

Shipping American oil is extremely long haul. US to India, US to Pakistan, US to South Korea. These are very long trips, far longer than Kuwait to India for example.

Maybe time to consider crude tanker stocks (DHT, Frontline) or even LNG stocks (CLCO) which are in cyclical lows.

...the financial implications of a 14 minute discussion on tote bags?

>>60727675

>>60727943
>14 minute discussion on tote bags?
I can do 1.4 minutes.

Canvas bags are the most durable but not convenient to carry around everywhere. I store them in a car.

Collapsible bags are the most convenient to carry everywhere but may lack weight and volumetric capacity. I can keep one in a pocket.

A regular plastic bag, folded up, has the best packaging due to being extremely thin, but is prone to tearing. I can keep one in a wallet.

Just to elaborate, the business/finance podcast I listen to each week did a bonus segment about tote bags, to discuss this article:
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/21/style/bab-bag-of-summer.html
https://archive.is/Div8a
I haven't read the article, but apparently big bags are popular? Idgi...
Anyway, the podcast also did segments on tariffs, the shit job market, and sports betting shenanigans, so they didn't just discuss stupid shit...

>>60727997
>I haven't read the article, but apparently big bags are popular? Idgi...
I used to work in a female majority job a while ago, so I do have some insight into it.

Women use a large bag like a man would use a small backpack. They used to be only popular with moms who would have a ton of baby supplies to haul around, or they'd be used by women who haul around a small dog that fit in the purse. That was about 15 years ago though. It probably caught on with the younger zoomer generation that is more utility oriented, but doesn't want to look like an instagram traveler. You'll probably see a growing trend of purse dogs as well since most of them aren't disciplined enough to be on their own.

With that said, these giant purse bags are absolutely dogshit at organizing anything within them. The only upsides are the perceived fashion statements and ease of accessibility since it's literally an open bag. I guess you could hit people with it if it's sufficiently heavy.

Berkshire wrote down 4 billion unrealized loss in KHC, does that mean its going to sell its stake or what?

>>60728021
Hmm, I'm a man and I have a big backpack...
But for my job I need two laptops (thus two chargers, two wireless mice, etc...) and I also carry a few other things like my phone charger, earbuds, a couple pens, etc in there.
I've had this backpack for like 15 years though, and it's still going strong. It's not fashionable at all I guess.

>>60728038
Powell. I like to call him Latey Ungratey Powell, everyone knows he is dropping the ball on this.
Thank you for your attention on this matter.

>>60728043
Women are choosing a much less practical storage option for fashion, which is why they need so much more space to do the same job that a smaller backpack could achieve better.

Men and women have fundamentally very different priorities. It's just how things are. Anyone who says otherwise is lying, stupid, or mindwashed.

>>60728038
spy was down 1.4% lol probably on the tariff news.

>>60728112
No, seems pretty reasonable.

It's pretty wild that the US economy, and by extension the world economy to a large degree, are so reliant on these amateurish situations if you think about it.

They knew about the revised jobs data at least a few days in advance, they didn't discover them that morning. Why doesn't the Fed know? Why does the Fed even discuss rate cuts before the jobs data is published? Do they not talk to each other?

>>60727762
I’ve been loading up on both DHT and SFL. DHT’s fleet seems to consist of only Very Large Crude Carriers while SFL has a wider variety of carriers. Dividend’s are not bad as well.

>>60728038
I bought the dip on the Fed Maintains Rate for September future market as a bit of a hedge. Powell seems to have gone rogue and it wouldnt surprise me if he is fine torpedoing both sides of the feds dual mandate because Trump called out why the Fed was building a 2 billion dollar pleasure palace and made him do that gay little photo op in his tiny construction worker hat.

>>60728214
Jpow did know, he gave it away in the post meeting q and a. His reason for holding was the demand for jobs had similar destruction to the supply of jobs. The unemployment rate remained steady and that's what he cares about

If this was actually about the job performance, they would do an investigation first, you don't just fire someone immediately on twitter.

i never see anyone say that woman shouldnt have been fired btw. clearly the current data is unusable. BLS incompetence lead to the rise of ADP data use by investors.

>>60728305
>this is literally Stalin and Mao.
well not literally

>>60728311
They've been doing these revisions for decades but the commissioner suddenly gets fired because the get a report that makes dear leader look bad. This is what the communists did. Not even modern China does this because they at least want to know the real numbers internally before posting fake ones.

>>60728333
So you think the boss shouldn’t be fired because all the other bosses were also bad and had inaccurate data?

>>60728351
How do you even know that they were doing a bad job? You could be the best weather forecaster and still get the weather wrong. The same applies for economic data. This is especially true during a period of funding cuts to the govt, including the BLS.

>>60728364
Lmao weather forecasting is not the fucking same as jobs data, the government has access to everyone’s payrolls directly through the treasury, yet somehow they are off by almost a million jobs this months and hundreds of thousands on average? To the point that a private company is now getting better numbers? The only way this happens is with incompetence

>>60728374
It's all data collection and statistics how do you think weather forecasting works?. You have fewer people collecting data, you get less accurate information.

>>60728364
>How do you even know that they were doing a bad job?
because the data has been very inaccurate and now ADP is the widely used source.

>>60728333
>They've been doing these revisions for decades but the commissioner suddenly gets fired because the get a report that makes dear leader look bad
opinion
>This is what the communists did. Not even modern China does this because they at least want to know the real numbers internally before posting fake ones.
conspiracy theory again

here is some data for revisions over the years from Bloomberg. clearly its gotten worse and always overcounts jobs lately for some reason? something has gone wrong.

>>60728364
more data

Does anyone know if FRED has the revision numbers in its datasets? It'd be interesting to see if initial accuracy is getting worse overtime (sure as fuck feels like it).
I'm looking around on FRED, but I can't see it, though I don't use it that much...

>>60728390
There have been major changes in the govt and economy in a short period of time, it's not unusual for there to be some instability in the numbers. You're going to see Trump attacking ADP next, probably something about anti-trust because of their dominance in payroll.

just be honest with me, how fucked is my KHC position on monday

>>60728407
Or I guess I could look at this chart: >>60728406
>revised down bigly when the economy is shit
>revised up minorly when it's not shit
So basically it's always worse than we initially think... got it

>>60728408
if you have google youll know that revision was from last year prior to trump

you should learn about something and then form an opinion. not the other way around.

>You're going to see Trump attacking ADP next, probably something about anti-trust because of their dominance in payroll.
more opinion based on nothing

ADP would be harder to attack because its based on payroll data and not a survey like the BLS.

>>60728364
>How do you even know that they were doing a bad job?

>i have an opinion but i dont know anything about the topic!

Before Obama companies were forced to go public pretty early on, there were strict limits on staying private past a certain point.
Then he passed the "JOBS" act so companies no longer IPO two years after moving out of mom's garage, rather when they are already old and wrinkled and boring.

>>60726790 (OP)
you can tell just how outdated this is because the average return is 8.83% when the 10y average is something retarded like 15%

>>60728525

here is Airbnb for example.

HOW FUCKED IS MY KETCHUP SHARES

How will car companies survive if they have to pay millions for any accident a self driving car causes?

>>60728649
Did the car destroy a building or something? 329m god damn

>>60728649
A precedent like that would literally kill self-driving on the spot.

>>60728649
What does portion of 329M even mean. just tell me how much TSLA will have to pay

>>60728664
33%

>>60728633
its over

>>60728612
Thanks, appreciated. *Bobo with folded yellow hands*

>>60728649
>I just want to pump out products without any liability, especially ones that are of high risk since they involve cars on public roads

You do know there are countries with specific penal laws in regards to behaviour with cars on public streets because of the inherent danger connected to that?

>>60728649
>"While driving, McGee dropped his mobile phone that he was using and scrambled to pick it up. He said during the trial that he believe Enhanced Autopilot would brake if an obstacle was in the way. His Model S accelerated through an intersection at just over 60 miles per hour, hitting a nearby empty parked car and its owners, who were standing on the other side of their vehicle.
Wow, stupid McGee dropped his phone and prayed that e-break help would save him, and the car company is at fault? Incredible things from American justice as always

>>60728649
I've never been in a Tesla but I did a road trip in a Toyota last year and all Toyotas (even all base models) have a sort of autopilot cruise control which does everything except change lanes (auto steering etc) and it was the most relaxing road trip I've ever done but looking back on it now I sometimes think I made a huge mistake trusting it at highway speeds.

>>60728664
>>60728649
Also, you might think $243m is penny change for Tesla, a company worth $950 billion.

But their free cash flow in Q2 2025 was only $146m so that's almost two quarters worth of cash flows. Assuming it doesn't turn negative next quarter.

>>60728713

>No, I didn't know that and we don't have that, and this is why the US is the best country in the world

>>60728716
Then what kind of special Autopilot is that supposed to be by Tesla? My Mercedes from 2008 also has a lever that you can push in or lift and it stays the same speed. That's a Tachometer though, not really Autopilot. So what is an Autopilot?

>>60728739
This case was back in 2019, my understanding is that the autopilot is just basic automatic breaking if there is a car in front and lane shifting and nothing like FSD (full self driving), but someone else would have to chime in here to get it right

Do you think we open red on Monday? I want to buy some SP at a reasonable price

>>60728745
I suspect the marketing has been stronger on TSLA's side. Here's a video of Musk thinking each year he'll finally have fully automated driving. How much do you think he'd try to imply there was actually fully automated selfdriving during sales etc? He had to deliver.

>>60728425
BLS is dog shit mate. No further research necessary

>>60728759
No Friday was the bottom of this dip

>>60728764
yeah the constant over-promising is also what was cited in this case as being one of the main-factors in the suit, as Tesla was accused of over stating how good the autopilot was and thereby giving a false sense of security to the driver causing him to drive recklessly

>>60728759
Crypto is oversold, expecting a bounce on Monday but I'm hoping it happens in market hours so I can buy it in pre market

My crypto is also melting. At least I'm hedging with shorts per CFD on the Coin I own the most, others I can't even hedge with regular CFD but only with cryptoexchanges.

Staking and Leveraged staking in the meantime.

The cryptomarket is overvalued. Coins with Chains with +2-3billion marketcap that make 500k a day in fees and revenue, but whatever. I bought the top pretty much, but also with intent to just hold for years and see what happens. It's all about the Tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA). Especially opening up access to those kind of investments to South America, Africa and South-South East Asia. Obviously China and East Asia, the US and Middle East also play a role, cause they have the whales, but you also want the mass.

>>60728593
Good news is a wealth gap.
For the anons who have made it already, things just keep getting better and better. White collar losing jobs, blue collar market getting flooded with more supplu thus pushing down wages.

>>60728593
Nah, it's not going to hurt consultants because a huge portion of the value of consultants is blame shifting and you can't blame AI for your failures.

>>60728593
There's so many jobs that are threatened by AI.
I'm now shifting to a social job, but unsure about it. Other option would be becoming a farmer with EU assistance since I already have land and trees.

But there's studies like ecological planning and whatever bullshit and I just imagine how somebody just types in a prompt
>Do a plan of "specific city", calculate how and where this and that should be, draw it
>10 seconds later
>2 months of work by one if not a group of people in 10 seconds.

Socialwork is still needed as we see with the Jobsdata, it's the only thing consistent and steady. And food is also still needed as long as we have not been replaced by Robots.

>>60728716
He was actively pushing the gas pedal while looking for this phone

>>60728894

>>60728649
>$329 million for 1 person dying
wtf, that's better than the ghetto lottery. Even fentanyl floyd, the patron saint of the ghetto lottery only gave $50 million.

>>60728874
true. also lets be honest they steal data from all their clients and then sell it to other clients lol.

What the fuck is happening to PayPal? This company literally keeps smashing earnings year after year and gets fucked anyways.

How do you beat revenue,.earnings, and revise guidance upward and drop 15%. Fucking crooks.

>>60728910
Yeah, but if you are to start a study, you have to think 3 years into the future at least if not longer, cause you'll at least need 3-4 years for your studies. And with how AI looks like now, there's a huge danger. It's not that it will completely replace humans, even though that is also possible in the far future, but that you just need a lot less people for the same work. Like just one guy to plan the city and not a council/group.

>>60728872
yeah i was mostly joking around about consultants losing their jobs to ai considering they will recommend ai to cut headcount at other companies lol.

>>60728925
years and years of PE ratio compression due to slowing earnings growth. from just looking for 30 seconds its practically a value play now. i assume the growth engine is dead?

>>60728925
If TSLA didn't have the retarded following it has it would also be down by a lot. I'd really like to know how much of the MCap is retail. These are posts you see on twitter. This was from the -17% day when Musk beefed with Trump. And it's at this level now still. How? With these earnings? Now think of several thousand of these kind of people.

>>60728939
Earnings and revenue are constantly growing and it is diversifying with ad revenue and crypto plays. It generates like 5 bill a year in cash and uses it to buy back stock. I'm just going to keep buying and holding.

>>60728925
looks like a "fallen angel" to a degree. and the market no longer wants to give it a premium valuation. that said it looks like a decent buy now.

>>60728956
>Do you know much, percentagewise, owners of TSLA shares are retail?

>As of March 2025, approximately 39.21% of Tesla (TSLA) shares are held by retail investors. This figure comes from data indicating that institutional shareholders own 46.99% and insiders own 13.80%, leaving the remainder for retail investors. Another source from February 2025 suggests retail ownership is around 35.14%. The slight variation may reflect changes in ownership over time or differences in data reporting. Retail ownership has been significant, with Tesla seeing strong inflows from individual investors, especially during price dips.

ok, thanks @grok

This is March, now probably even more with Robotaxi and Investors openly saying on Bloomberg that they are selling.

>>60728971
looks like decent growth ahead it will just trade at 20x earnings and not the 40x or 80x it once it.

looks like a good buy to me.

Thoughts on the Shiller PE ratio? Is right now the good time to buy?

I just think it's absolutely insane that a $1 trillion company generates like $150m in free cash flow per quarter.

This is like pets.com territory

>>60729416
TSLA has been an insane bubble for well over a decade. Maybe since its IPO?
It keeps going up because it keeps going up. There are no fundamentals.

>>60729429
The theory is that they're going to be the sole supplier of vehicles for Mars colonies, because there's no oil there so they need to be electric. But they aren't even the best electric car manufacturer anymore (China is ahead) so idk....

>>60729429
It goes up because its a megacap and belongs in the SP500 and pensioners buy the index

>>60729437
Unless there's some big news I haven't heard I don't know why people think hypothetical future Mars colonies in 10-30 years are worth that much.

>>60729237
Yeah, you just tap the gaspedal and this shit lifts off.

And Audi is such a speeder brand, kek.

>>60729411

>>60729416
>This is like pets.com territory
not yet, the big companies still need to dilute their shareholders and acquire small companies at a discount until it's not a discount anymore
hence rising tide raises all boats
it'll truly be a bubble when something like pic related is also worth billions, but for now i just bought some when it's only 150m market cap so still reasonable

it's not a bubble until smallcaps are involved and i hope it's next year then it'll be
>CXDO
$18 goal
>IDN
$20 goal
>ITMSF
$10 goal

even bigger companies like AMPL, prob 2x if it's really a bubble

>>60729465
I've never even heard of these companies, what do they make?

>>60729449
Yes, the whole value of TSLA is built on bullshit:
>that TSLA is the best companies to build Mars colony vehicles
Which is on top of more bullshit:
>that there's any reason to go to Mars at all

>>60729483
To be fair, if Musk has his way there will be a Mars colony and it will get most of its vehicles from TSLA.
Whether it will be a profitable colony is another question.

>>60729483
Yeah, just ignore the empty continent called Australia that likely resembles Mars the most except for the wildlife.

>>60729470
CXDO is ai on telecommunication shit getting a boost with some ai automation. somehow theyre competing very well against microsoft and cisco. their financial metrics look good but otherwise really boring company honestly

IDN is id authentication with a big moat/monopoly, not really ai, but expected to get a boon or even bought out because of all the new identity fraud from ai (like amazon losing $80m cause of fake truckers picking up shipments lmao so yes lots of money in fighting against fraud). this one also boring coz it's with driver licenses shit. ultimately buyout is the goal since they have a bit of a monopoly, even if there are other ways to deal with fraud they'd still want IDN as another layer in a combined product

Intermap is a longtime company that tried to do too much before, now with a turnaround management plus ai being a boon to minimizing costs (well it's not just ai but theres rigorous stuff that would normally take 300 people that are being done by only 10 people now). this one is the most interesting to me thats why i entered it at ~$2.30 recently when it was just at $0.5 recently because their TAM is the entire world literally, lots of applications for the geographical data they provide in terms of insurance companies, disaster control, air travel, and warfare obviously (drone warfare and also gps-restricted conditions). falling a bit for blue sky potential here honestly but the TAM would quite literally be hundreds of billions

there's quite a few more obscure tickers i was looking at but i've narrowed it down to these 3 for now until i get more cash from another play im slowly scaling out of

>>60729502
Oh no, it's more like Antarctica, much better.

>Antarctica most closely resembles Mars among Earth’s continents. Its cold, dry climate, with average temperatures around -50°C (-58°F) and extremely low humidity, mirrors the Martian surface, where temperatures can drop to -140°C (-220°F) and water is scarce. The continent’s vast ice-free regions, like the McMurdo Dry Valleys, feature barren, rocky landscapes with minimal vegetation, similar to Mars’ regolith-covered terrain. These valleys also have low precipitation, receiving less than 100 mm of water-equivalent snow annually, akin to Mars’ arid conditions

>>60729504
Interesting, I'll look into these. Thanks for the tips.

>>60729502
It's true, Mars is indeed more habitable than Australia in regard to wildlife.

Oh boy I can't wait to slurp up everything monday. Too big to fail.

>>60729526
top signal

>>60729513
just word of caution, my allocations in this 3 tickers is only like ~10% total of my whole portfolio
im not going crazy into these with my entire portfolio

i think in general the market is also expensive so there's also value in keeping a lot of cash/gold just in case (bitcoin also acts like gold and would be good with continued currency devaluation but market is also going risk off so sometimes it's going the opposite direction of gold as well).
though of course even if the market is expensive (look at all the megacaps showing amazing financials but dropping back down after earnings cause it's all priced in already),
it doesnt mean that price discovery is not possible anymore. Smallcaps are the next goldmine after

it'll be time to panic about a bubble when IWM is also going to crazy valuations like QQQ, but until then, bears crying about bubbles are like the early firms that called it a bubble as early as 1996.
the bubble could pop in the near future but might not even go down to levels lower than today, frankly a lot of fundamentals are still fueling all the equity growth looking at all the ACTUAL performance from the big companies all the way to the root of TSM/NVDA (ignore ASML lol they're too specialized and difficult to scale up)
we dont even have a wave of overpriced IPOs and SPACs to really go into mania mode yet aside from figma balls

You trully do make more money when you do the George Soros approach, but it also hurts like a bitch too.

it will be a bubble when we start seeing the equivalent of LCID in ai companies going to $70 billion market cap

all this talk about a bubble, people already forgot how 2020-2021 felt in terms of mania

intels death was earlier than that
i remember when i was holding tsmc and it went up +30% on no news from them, it went up on news of INTEL earnings shitting the bed since their roadmap was delayed again. l m a o

they had no proper roadmap for the next few years and everything in semiconductors takes years in advance to prepare, theres no overnight solution, so people already knew they were fucked for years. theyre still being valued at like an 80 billion market cap so still potentially a long way to go before it'd be decent risk-reward for a ryzen-equivalent turnaround.. assuming they actually show signs on replacing the beancounter management

>>60729706
Wouldn't this destroy your fucking house

>>60729653
no position they're not ai, they're more defensive/value-picking (can potentially be value trap too!!!) so i skipped on them for now
VTSI, TPCS, and INFU

another one, more connected to ai, specifically with compound semiconductors, AEHR would also be interesting but i scratched it out after it suddenly went up +40% in the past month -> so far it's given a lot of it back, get it down lower and it'll start getting interesting again

half of those are also not currently profitable (this is not always a red flag though, you can still win with unprofitable companies if they have operational leverage -> e.g. CXDO is profitable now because their revenues were growing faster than their expenses) so not stuff you want to buy and "forget" in case they shit the bed and dilute on u endlessly, or well you really shouldnt buy and forget anything that isn't an index etf

they are very obscure companies sometimes it feels very stupid but CTLP just got bought out recently at a premium (relative to 2024 of course) and they only process payments in vending machines. DDS is also something funny (was discussed here in 2020 alongside GME for brick&mortar recovery), just basically malls but with how tight their float is and their buybacks, it's ballooned so much since 2020 and kept more of its gains compared to GME
Not endosring either CTLP, DDS, or GME at this point though of course and DDS is a different case compared to schizo GME even if they are/were both brick&mortar
i mean im still riding schoolbus dashcams too lol

I’m in the “nothing ever happens, but every dip” camp but I also lost so much money last week I’m a bit shook to the core.

>>60729810

gold is being overvalued relative to big macs

>>60729822
so I should short gold or long big macs?

>>60729819
whatever anyone tells you is bullshit lol the only thing u can be sure of is whether something is still at a decent valuation to buy

if something dipped to $10 on friday but it'll be worth $40 next year because market is underestimating its growth, then it'll hurt less when it continues dipping down to $9 or $8 next week
a lot of price discovery still happens particularly in smaller companies because institutions have liquidity issues entering the company while it's cheap

>>60729837
Yes.

>>60729837
i wouldnt short gold when the rest of the market is expensive, ur risk vs reward seems kinda shit even if u end up right

but your question can still be boiled down to which of gold or mcdonalds is a better defensive asset/stock, but both assets have been going up already (and it's all defensive picks not just mcdonalds, i was also holding grocerys, loblaw specifically, and it's been going up)
i think i'd still lean towards gold, but with how much defensive picks have gone up, i feel like it's better to hold cash thats why i sold loblaws (but i just used up all the cash maybe prematurely.... on the friday pullback)

>>60729822
>not taking into account the shrinking size of the big mac

go google a pic of the original bigmac next to a modern one

Original Size:
When first introduced, the Big Mac was made with two "quarter meat" patties, each weighing a quarter pound before cooking, according to Quora users.
Current Size:
Today, the patties are 1.6 ounces each, which is the same size as the regular hamburger patties

>modern bigmac has less meat than half a bigmac originally.
>yet we're all somehow getting fatter
anybody telling you vegetable oil has been better for our health than the beef tallow fries of yore is an idiot.

>>60729815
sshhhh still accumulating

^ assuming you can get at least 2.5% interest on cash
yes it's being devalued over time, you can basically end up being a bagholder on useless cash, but at least you can collect interest while you leave yourself open to opportunities on bigger pullbacks or dips

frankly i think i should be sitting more cash and stop being so allergic to it, yes im still bullish and dont think it's a bubble yet, but being 30% cash also seems reasonable

if you look at "chinese food" or "italian food" or any kind of "foreign" food that's been common in america for 100+ years what you'll find is that it uses way more meat than the original peasant cuisine it's based on

so it was just plain business, profitable for years unlike junior miners

>>60730054
>because it would seem the US can produce beef but it would still rather import it from Brasil and Australia
Google's AI says the US is the world's largest producer of beef and beef imports are mostly to cover demand for ground beef, the shittiest and cheapest kind.
Importing meat is difficult and expensive because of quarantine concerns, but we have a shitload of empty land. In the 19th century you could get land out west literally for free just by being willing to live on it, because the federal government wanted to settle all the empty territory.

Drills are probably better money, that shit's expensive and iirc most miners are renting their equipment so they get absolutely fucked if they have a bad year.

actually weird that this company was valued under $100m market cap a while back when they just print cash
though that was a weird time when they had to move their drill out of unstable countries, since then i believe they've learned to be more careful of the political climate (cant safely collect money if it's a corrupt country in africa or something after all)

ultimately i ended up just buying more of ai dashcams last year instead of geodrill

yeah oops meant to post pic related for Geodrill >>60730067
specifically as a case of how price discovery is still possible even when the market (index etf) is expensive right now
it didnt exactly outperform ai/tech stuff but it still beat the SPY

obscure stuff like this, just finding value in undervalued shit, is the same reasoning im also looking at VTSI, TPCS, INFU etc, no position in any of them right now
kinda wish there were still a lot of ppl who looked at this stuff in /smg/ but the people who did have long graduated out of smg (like the guy who shilled JXN before I guess, or everyone who shilled GME when it was under $300m market cap with almost that much net cash as well back in 2020)

theres still money to be made and there's not as much value-pick tickers being shilled here to take a look at compared to before
of course a lot of people were wrong too like the people looking at boring REITs sector or fucking airliners, so you do have to learn how to verify the shit urself

wait fuck thats the wrong screenshot thats not geodrill lol

I've only just gotten back into stock trading last week. I used to come here back when it was Robinhood General and there were only two or three guys with more than $10k.
Probably should have kept lurking even when I wasn't actively trading, I made tons of money from buying AMD at $10 and that was all on /biz/'s recommendation.

soxl is going back under 10 soon

why did i fucking buy 15000 worth of KHC and then all this bad news happens? guess ill baghold for the next 40 years

>>60730090
i think i remember being shilled fucking turkey/india etf or something before covid, it was garbage back then too unless you knew how to filter shit

i got lucky since while lurking i googled whatevr i didnt understand and somehow leaned towards value trading, though it did mean buying some value traps at the start like REITs
for the record ive never been dumb enough to buy Intel coz i already knew they were garbage even though i missed out on actually buying AMD despite being won over by Ryzen for my gamin shit. i did hold tsm for awhile at least but as a retail trader our best advantage is in speculating in smaller companies where institutions have a harder time entering or exiting.
retail can liquidate in an instant while institutions would end up dumping the price -10% or more if they actually liquidated their entire fund at once

Oh don't get me wrong, most of what /biz/ recommends is and always has been trash.
But if you sift through that trash there's always someone shilling the next AMD.

Because Mississippi is a third-world country nestled within a first-world one. You have the low cost of living of a Latin American country with an ok infrastructure and most of the same goods you'd find in, say, California. Only reason this place isn't flooded with transplants is because it sucks balls in so many other aspects.

>>60727023
I already did. The real play here is to be diversified.

I think I'm split like 40% small biz 20% stocks 25% RE and 15% PMs?

I'm pretty upset bummed I already blew my cash covered puts load on XLV and then UPS which kept dipping.
If I follow my rules then I'll probably have to wait a bit before selling more puts even if there are good opportunities this week.

Also maybe I'm overreacting but I'm not too optimistic about Aug-Sept-Oct.
