It’s rigged like always but now that there’s effectively no SEC oversight it’s super duper rigged. Just do what doesn’t feel right or make sense. AKA I bought calls going into close Friday and it made absolutely no sense and physically hurt me to do it. That’s how I knew it was the right play. The market is retarded. Something about remaining irrational longer than your can remain solvent.

I did say "I think", because I haven't used TWS in over 5 years, but that is exactly how I traded butterflies where it was possible to collect a credit. Did you try submitting the orders? The BTO order shouldn't need to actually fill before you can attach a TP order, so you could try when the market is closed. Submit your BTO with a negative (the credit you'd like to capture), attach a TPO with a positive number like you would do with any other long trade, which a butterfly is(everything above zero is what you're trying to capture in excess of the original credit). If the platform doesn't reject them, then they are valid orders. The thing that is counterintuitive is that you're assuming that a trade is short just because it has a net credit. Whether you are a buyer or seller is to do with liabilities, AKA which end of the stick you're holding in the deal (the LONG end or the SHORT end). A regular butterfly is a long position, whilst a BWB allows you to collect a credit, your liabilities aren't changing structurally.

> PE multiples compress and stocks become cheaper over time (AKA provide smaller returns or go down period) That's not true. It becomes priced in immediately. Expected rate of return for equities is risk free rate + risk premium. As rates go up, stock prices take a hit immediately such that the equation becomes true again. In a high rate environment stocks would actually have higher returns than a low rate environment. This isn't something you can time. If you could, you would be running a billion dollar hedge fund instead of being on reddit. For example, if rates go up to 10% overnight stocks would take an absolutely massive cut, but would then be expected to return in excess of 10% per year.

Its a no brainer to invest into infq since they are still early and have already demostrated achieveing 40 logical qubits. They are also selling sensors so that puts them in a unique position to win since they are not just targetting quantium computing but sensors that will replace analog sensors that are vastly surperior and necessary to avoid national defense issues such as gps sensors, gavity sensors that can detect changes in the earth precisely identifying where rare minerals can be found, which can save a lot of money and many other sensors. Regarding their qpus AKA quantum computing, they have been accelerating the rate that they are able to achieve logical qubits at an expediting rate, which means they will hit 100 to 1,000 logical qubits very soon. Infleqtion has proven that they are no longer speculative and is the real deal with their technology.

ultra__star

When bond yields are up it becomes less a matter of “I am too young for bonds.” Interest rates are like gravity. The higher bond yields go, the harder it is for businesses that borrow money to turn a profit, and therefore PE multiples compress and stocks become cheaper over time (AKA provide smaller returns or go down period). When bond yields are up they are worth considering at any age.

TBH I don't understand how raising rates helps anything other than "cooling" the economy. It stunts growth and makes 1st time homeownership more difficult All it does is make lending more "expensive" AKA the bank profits more from lending than they did before Rates need to be tiered so billionaires are not eligible for loans. They already have billions! Da fuq should someone give them a loan for!?! 1st time homeowners should never pay more than 4% Anything over 6% should be considered usury.

I am not being sexist here. At all. But it is a well known sociological fact that, on average, women are much more risk adverse than men. My wife was the same way. She has a fear of losing the lonely because she has never been educated about it or personal finances or investing, which sours her in the idea, which prevents her from learning, etc. We each have our own HSA funds. I mentioned to her that my HSA is up 50% this year. She got a bit angry, we talked about it, and she wasn’t angry at me so much as her father never teaching her anything. So how, finally, we are able to talk about our investments and she is understanding that a bit of risk is required for the life we want to live. My advice would be to sit your wife down and put together scenarios that are true but shockingly different. $200k in cash is, to put it bluntly, is one of the worst non-debt financial mistakes I can think of…unless your lifestyle requires it. AKA living in a mansion.

Stackalope

You can buy an option contract for as little as a dollar. AKA $0.01 premium per share. But that's not the point. You're not going to win every trade and if you open an account with $50 and you put that whole $50 into that first trade. You could very easily lose it. You will not win every trade so you have to have enough to withstand a drawdown. I turned $800 into $8,000 in about 3 months. You just have to know what you're doing. And don't put all your eggs into one basket. Because, again, if you do, you could very easily lose it all.

OhFuckNoNoNoMyCaat

I'm actually curious what would happen if LULU were to readjust prices or offer entry and mid level products in addition to their "premium" products. I think the notion of being a more "exclusive" brand is going to hurt them in terms of economic decline like it is now under the precursor of a K-shaped economy. In other words, if the products are high quality and expensive, but few can afford them, AKA top of the K, while the rest are at the bottom and would rather spend that kind of money on essentials for survival, then they're going to falter.

I want everybody to understand that Trump’s investments are NOT in a blind trust at all. Ethical presidents through our history have typically placed their investments in a blind trust, but Trump refused. I also want to point out that any individual that uses a money manager has placed their funds under, “third party control” yet they still have the acuity to call them and request a position be taken or excited. AKA, they are not blind to their investments and have full discretionary control over the account anytime they choose to exercise that control. It’s the thinnest veil I’ve ever seen and his base eats it up out of pure ignorance/cognitive dissonance.

The US literally produces more oil than it consumes, but there's a caveat there. When the US refining infrastructure was put into place it was before we realized how much oil we actually had. The US mostly produces SWEET crude. AKA it requires a minimal amount of refining that our facilities aren't designed for. Our oil is TOO good for our facilities. Our refineries are built around black or heavy crude. Oil from Canada, Venezuela, and the middle east. When sweet crude is more valuable on the open market than completely retooling our existing refineries it just makes more sense to SELL all of our oil and import what were built to refine. But don't for a second think the US is dying for foreign oil when we literally produce more than we consume. It just makes more sense to sell ours and import what we have the means to refine.

> People should not be paid to do nothing. I disagree, very few people who aren't disabled get paid to do nothing and social welfare programs aren't a huge drain on the budget compared to the societal costs of homelessness and people starving/dying on the streets. Remember when you look at the budget spend people pay into medicare and social security, so while it's a big part of the budget, a big part if covered by current/past payments. .0.7% get temporary cash assistance AKA welfare (which is only available for a short time) and 2.9% get SSI (cash for the permanently disabled.) People may get medicaid (23.5%, mostly children - has work requirement for adults) SNAP (11%), free school lunch (8%), WIC (2%), section 8 housing (4.4% only for the very poor (including elderly) or disabled) or energy assistance (3.4%) The bigger spending issue is from the past (ie 16% of Federal budget spent on servicing/paying interest on the increasing debt.) >At the other extreme, corporations and those owning/running them should not be able to hide income or keep it beyond the reach of the tax authorities. I agree here, we should be spending more for the IRS to go after the rich who don't pay their taxes. We get anywhere from $5-12 (depending on who you ask) for every $1 spent on increased enforcement.

Of you have 457 and 403, you probably work for a public school, which means you also have a pension. If you are also in California, then you have to look at the high California income tax on your pension. Those two issues combined would keep your Tax bracket high in retirement, therefore, Roth might be a better choice for you. If your combined income is too high for Roth IRA, check if you can open a post tax DCP 401(a), which allows somewhere around $40k or $50k of contributions per year, then roll it over to a Roth IRA as soon as each paycheck transfers to avoid any gains that are taxable. If you roll each check over on the same day it posts, it should be a straight post tax DCP rollover to Roth IRA with no other tax consequence AKA Mega Backdoor Roth IRA. I strongly suggest you contact your Financial Advisor to check on the feasibility of a Backdoor Roth. I'm not a financial advisor and I don't play one on TV, so I give no financial advice. This is just what I did before retiring.

Kinda crazy how having money and not having money is a positive feedback loop. Even just buying shit.

If you do have money, you put it on a card, pay it off, and get 5% cash back, making it 5% cheaper. The poor, AKA high risk borrowers, subsidize the well off. That’s kinda fucked lmao

This should be your last priority after you’ve maxed out your emergency savings (6-24 months’ expenses), 401(k) ($24.5k), spouse’s 401(k) ($24.5k), IRA if you qualify ($7.5k), spouse’s IRA if you qualify ($7.5k), HSA if you have one ($8750), and 529 (deduction depends on state, but $10k-$20k per kid). So it’s really only a smart investment vehicle for people who have saved multiple months’ salary **and** have more than $49k-$82k left over to invest each year. AKA, not the poor and middle class.

phillytennisenjoyer

I would max it, especially if you feel good or neutral about the company. If its a share for every 3, then every 3 dollars you get 1 dollar, so its actually 33.3% ROI. The only way I wouldn't max this out is if it was a sketchy ass company. Or if I had credit card debt exceeding 15% interest rates. If there is a look-back period -- AKA what price are the shares purchased at? if there is a lookback, its an absolute no brainer.

ASTS DD: AST just said in their Earnings call they are doing datacenters in space by early 2027. AKA "AI Edge Compute". Is this to power LLM's like Chat GPT? Probably not. More than likely it is for the US Government, for national security. Why, you might ask? Because when AI compute is done on the satellite/edge, it's faster and more secure for defense purposes. It might be Golden Dome related. Either way, it means large contracts in the future. ASTS might very well be the first mover for datacenters in space (AI Edge Compute) by early 2027...

“Failing to pay taxes/pension/health insurance premiums” \-AKA if they tax audit you and tell you that you owe xyz, but you actually owe abc they can revoke it now without a criminal conviction “Hiding assets overseas” \-Japan is one of the highest tax regimes in the world for permanent tax residents. They have a 55% top income tax rate and 55% inheritance tax and a similarly high exit tax for unrealized capital gains when you own stocks or bonds or crypto above ¥100 million. You are technically required to report assets in excess of ¥50,000,000 overseas annually on your tax return, but that’s a low amount for basically any upper middle class foreign resident. It just sets up the pretext for revocation without a criminal conviction. Previously, you needed to be convicted of a crime + sentenced to 1+ years in prison to be placed in removal proceedings. Expect more changes to come. They might charge more for re-entry permits, require something like 3/5 previous years resident in Japan to retain PR, revoke it for people who fall on public assistance.
