BAC

Portlog11

While GOOG may experience a steeper draw down, it will certainly recover and outpace BAC and KO eventually.

The thing about bagholding is nobody likes to say they’re holding bags of shit. Commercial real estate? Theyve all realized they’re holding dog shit filled bags but they’ve also realized they can just not sell buildings for what they’re actually worth because nobody wants to write anything down. Plenty of debt issuers know it’s completely unsustainable but admitting as much would be like dropping a grenade in a fireworks factory. Once they’ve unloaded the debt off their balance sheets and are positioned for it then expect the big banks (JPM, BAC) to announce there’s an emergency and things will grind to a halt.

He’s never made a similar move though. In fact, he sold TSM in 2023 even though the company is a monopoly and diversified its risks by establishing fabs in the U.S. He thought OXY was going to be some amazing play. What an absolute waste. His recent purchase of UNH is classic safe Buffett. TBD if that bet pays off long term. Meanwhile, there are quickly growing new sectors evolving in space, AI, quantum computing, and nuclear energy. He has 0 exposure. Citigroup has proven to be a smart buy, but he held onto it for years while it did nothing and watched NVDA skyrocket. BAC was a failed investment too. The only tech growth stock in his portfolio is AAPL, but he reduced his exposure by 50%. Smart move when he executed it, but now the stock is higher than his selling price and I doubt UNH will outpace the growth of AAPL and will certainly never have similar margins. So let’s see, what else has Buffett recently bought. Lennar? Classic Buffett play. Low p/e but decreasing margins in an environment not conducive to growth. Say what you want about shortage of housing but that story has run its course. As unemployment rises, people will be forced to sell their homes at discount. Homes that are in already established communities with good schools and amenities will be put on the market in droves. Lower rates will not be an advantage to new home builders who have relied on their rate buy down power to lure new buyers who would otherwise wish to purchase a higher quality home not built with cheap materials and labor. My point is, Buffett plays a safe style of investing because it’s within his best interests. If he is wrong, which he is a lot, then his losses will be mitigated by low valuations and dividends. That’s a recipe for wealth perseverance, not wealth accumulation.

Wegman’s if they were public. Atomic Coffee Roasters if they were public, too (New England area roaster). AMZN, AAPL, GOOG, Kimberly-Clark (shout out to my favorite TP), Colgate-Palmolive, BAC, Schwab, I’ll also lie and say Ferrari (RACE) but that’s just because I like the symbol.

I bought HOOD at $8. It hit $16, I was feeling good. Then $20, $30, $40… I sold half at $80, I mean it can’t keep going up, right? I put it into a bond fund paying 6%, my yield using my original investment is umm…. checks calculator…. 60% annually. Now it’s ~$125. Yeah at some point it stops making sense. I am thinking about selling the rest. I am developing this overwhelming feeling that something’s gotta give. I got into the market 2008. I bought Ford at $4 and BAC at $8 during the great recession been collecting dividends ever since. Does anyone else feel as though we are due for a serious correction? I’ve been raising cash just in case.

Sure but BAC earned me about a 10th of that YOY and if i sold id be at about that in gains. But like, i dont want to sell. I want to retire on interest haha

*BAC dividends? Dad?*

TSLA doesnt even pay dividend so whats the point of holding? My BAC holdings of just 80k worth pay the utility bill every month in dividends lol. Do people just use TSLA as a way to force losses through bad shorts?

My play about buying LEAPS on BAC and SOFI is already printing. If you didnt bother to check, that's on you

Heyhayheigh

It is easy to use. But so is Fidelity with a linked Bank of America account. You get preferred rewards benefits from banking with BAC, that’s something. If you don’t know anything, Fidelity is probably better because you can just buy dollar amounts of VOO (sp500).

Ecstatic_Ad_5121

I put in 40 puts of BAC $52 because I prayed and I got mad as hell at banks. 

Due-History-7139

why BAC?

dj_samuelitobx

wait for a dump, buy SOFI and BAC leaps

_jasmin17

i like JPM! it’s up +27% YTD compared to SPY up +12%. it’s the only one of the global systemically important banks thats outperformed SPY since the financial crisis, it has a 10 year CAGR of 20% compared to SPY’s 15%. the two next biggest banks, BAC and C, have 10 year CAGRs of 14% and 10% respectively. out of financial stocks, JPM is by far the golden standard.

Disastrous_You_5664

They issue guidelines for mortgage debt for banks to lend, and buy loans funded by banks like Wells and BAC, then bundle the loans and sell them to investors. Basically if you hear the term 'conforming loan' it's either from Fannie Mae FNMA or Freddie Mac FMCC. They have been in a conservatorship since 2008, and are about to be 'released' Way more info available than the snippet I provided. It's worth a read.

grackychan

Release from conservatorship and uplisting to public exchange (NYSE). Trump summoned BAC, JPM, C, WFC and GS CEOs in August to the White House to hear their plans to underwrite an IPO for Fannie and Freddie. Scott Bessent has said the IPO will likely be worth north of $500 billion, reflecting a significant premium from current prices.

Not sure about qqq either. Ran out of dt’s. BAC I seen a spike to the downside today, breaking support so I played it MCD been in an uptrend SOFI is SOFI

19andbored22

Not sure about the QQQ put the BAC put has more merit but they been doing pretty good this year so not sure about those. I would recommend more long term options. But that depends who your playing the game. Well would recommend neon but tbh it a coin flip could skyrocket like it did before if their a deal with samsung and depending on the settlement with apple but that is a semi gamble.

TamaTontata

Banks, BAC, C secretly doing buybacks

MrPacksAlot

Fair. Could see a bleed in the 2-3wks into earnings just to soar back to ATH levels following the release. It’s just hard to imagine BAC continuing this streak, albeit I’m currently holding calls from the slight dip. Picked up at low yesterday. Was contemplating switching sides for a month out

dj_samuelitobx

This isn't a bad bet but all of these are trash compared to SoFi technologies on the riskier end, and Bank of America on the safer end.  Literally buy BAC and go long $70 by March and you'll be okay. 

Busy_Point_3091

Knew BAC would break 50+ but I thought it’d be early summer, not mf now.. Shit, always missing it by inches 😖

ImakeBADinvestmentsx

BMO capital and BAC released notes on this. A Breakup of $GOOGL is not expected. Chrome will be kept within Alphabet. So most likely its going to be data sharing ruling or a injudction an apple payments - which will not have any impact on $GOOGL. Apple has no alternative on search and chrome is the best - users will just bypass safari and download chrome. Anyways, this is at 20 P/E and 16x FY26 P.E SO damn cheap! expect a re-rating to 25 P/E which should send this $250. SO many institutions loaded on $GOOGL aswell in the 180s-200s - this move isnt driven by retail. Billions are buying because it's going to WIn AI aswell due to its full stack. Check out nano-banana model. INSANE.

ImakeBADinvestmentsx

Judge has hinted breaking up chrome might not be the best answer. So no divesture. BMO Capital has done analysis and spoken and said the same. BAC has agreed aswell as the current admin. Saying they dont want to break them up. PLus, how do you sell $GOOGL chrome to investors. If it's spun off - gets who owns it? current investors :) just under alphabet lol. no buy/sale as its out reach of govt.

BAC is so close to hitting $53 again. It hasn't been at $53 since 2006.

TamaTontata

JPM, BAC were saying that buying the dip was a great opportunity for the past few days. I held calls into today, cashed out 2 of them but if I had listened to them my portfolio would be a lot happier.

Secure-Shoulder1194

FDX Berkshire sold about $4B of BAC and is putting roughly $5B into an “industrial.” FedEx (FDX) is one of the names getting mentioned, but nothing’s confirmed. The filing should be out Thursday. Why FDX makes sense: • “Logistics” keeps coming up in the chatter • Valuation isn’t stretched • They’ve been buying back a lot of shares • $5B would be ~6–7% of the company — big enough to notice, but easy to build quietly Might be worth keeping an eye on after-hours action in case people are positioning early.

dubbawubalublubwub

tldr, buy puts on BAC?

scorchie

Thank you, sir. I've paid for a lot of experience the hard way, so I pay it forward. I would be cautious on bonds or anything inflation-linked to USGOV (bad data = bad prices). If you don't short, I'd recommend a gold position as a dollar hedge. I don't want to be responsible for another person's retirement; I only offer personal recommendations, based on my own allocations. The last "crash" was [SVB ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collapse_of_Silicon_Valley_Bank)failure in '03, but the banks (still to this day) hold those losses unrealized on their balance sheets, so it never materialized. JPB, WF & BAC all have substantial amounts of this, which will only increase as yields rise (from lack of demand on USG term-debt). They will be forced to realize this soon, as yet another catalyst. Stay safe, and I hope you enjoy your retirement.

scorchie

Sell-side reporting. I've seen the same data from BAC, JPM, Goldman, etc... Bloomberg + Reuters have all reported these numbers. It's also how we know retail is on a record $1.1T of margin (largest in history). Retail brokers/institutions have the same counterparties for these transactions (investment banks). Hedge funds will sometimes use dark pools, which are transactions that are difficult to track order flow on (directionality is not reported). However, even HFs have a prime broker, where 75% or more of all their order flow is executed (OTC contracts may not be reported, but they are included in gross exposure by the CP).

Juhkwan97

I bot BAC at about $48 sometime in late 2007. Bought more, averaged down to about $30, then watched it drop to <$5 in the GFC. I held, bought a little more and averaged down to around $25. Then I held until 2020, got out around $30. 12 years I watched that mistake in my accounts. But I wish that was the worst one I ever made.

Level_Today9609

Same think happened to me on a huge 20 contract BAC CC I had at a strike price of 50. One day before expiration I rolled it out a week to 52 because it was about to cross 50 - it Never crossed 50 and I ended up loosing over $4500 to roll and wouldn’t you know BAC dropped down to $45/share

Conscious_Project485

I was holding @ 20 stocks in my portfolio, including half speculative. I went YOLO and sold almost everything, loss or gain. Took my gains on 400 WBD and SOFI shares, 200 F and 100 BAC. I scooped up 100 AMZN shares at a price that I thought I would never see this low again. I used every last dollar to finally scrape 96 shares of ANET, which reports earnings on 8/5 this week and is expected to hit it out of the park again... Still hung onto 100 shares of NVDA and PLTR, although it hurt watching them plummet today. It's scary that I just sold all the stocks with dividends I had recently purchased to balance my specs, but that's my YOLO! I wanted to chase UNH shares at this price, but with lawsuits pending, my balls aren't THAT big!

I had about 750K in 2007 when we all know the interest rate will definitely going down for the next year. I moved about 250K to bond and leave about 500K in SP500. Wish I had moved more. Anyway, market crashing is not a problem for me (to win big). The problem is in 2009 and 2010, I still have no faith in buying BOA (ticker: BAC) at below $10. Ended up with $14 cost average in 2014 for about 400K position. You would think the whole financial crisis in 2008 is a 1 month event. The truth is that it last many years for stock market. Even if you had bought BAC in 2009 for $5 like Buffett, in very likely situations, you may lose your shares in Nov 2011 for $5.5 or $6 a share and padding your back for a win. 20% gain in 3 years is not too bad actually, given the circumstance. In fact, same thing happened to my BAC position. It went up to about $17 in 2015 and dropped to $11 in Feb 2016 and everyone was panicking thinking 2009 or 2011 might repeat itself. Don't fool ourselves to think we can get BAC at $5 like Buffett is the first step to become a successful investor.

Florida_Man0101

I lost half my wealth, but buying BAC a week after bottom made me feel worthy again.

AnselmoHatesFascists

I bought all the banks, Citi, BAC and even AIG because those were all beaten down on talk of getting nationalized by the Obama administration. In retrospect, complete crazy talk. But it was a great example of when they say that buying when everyone seems to be panicking is a fast track to building wealth.

DrElkSnout

Highest trading volume of a stock ever recorded: # 🥇 Bank of America Corp (BAC) * 📆 **November 10, 2008** * 📊 **Volume: \~2.38 billion shares** This spike happened during the height of the **2008 financial crisis**, as panic-driven trading surged amid bailout talks and systemic risk in the banking sector. OPEN is at 620M and climbing on the day holy fuck we're going to hit 1 Billion TODAY.

TradeVue

Good question! should have been answered by now. honestly this is a smart observation, you’re kinda thinking like a trader who’s looking for edge in IV structure which is rare on reddit calendars being that cheap on BAC makes sense since front vol is low and the back month isn’t that much higher, but the thing is… when IV is super low across the board, calendars lose their juice because there’s no vol differential to exploit. so yeah you can stack on credit spreads around it, but now you’re mixing long premium and short premium in a way that fights itself a bit…like if you sell call spreads above your calendar, that limits upside if BAC does decide to drift higher, and if you sell puts below it you’re doubling down on a range-bound assumption, so just know you’re capping your win zone in low IV names like BAC, I’d rather just sell something simple and mechanical like a tight strangle or iron condor outside 1SD and manage it that way, small pop, small loss, repeat it. or if you still like the calendar setup, you could try a double calendar or something like a calendar ratio, just keep it clean and don’t overstack complexity for a name that moves slow. calendar + condor combo can work, but it’s gotta be super deliberate or you’ll end up strangling your own trade for a tiny net credit lol overall you’re thinking in the right direction just don’t overengineer it for a stock that ain’t gonna make a big move anyway, keep it simple, sell something with edge, and move on to the next one

Fibocrypto

OP, The better question is which companies do you like ? I'll give you my basic investing strategy. Any stock I buy I will thin 1/3 of the position if the stock price doubled and once I eventually get all of my initial investment out of it( other 1/3 thinning of the position as the stock goes up ) . I will continue to hold that position and forget about that stock. I will use that money I received to invest into another company. My most recent purchases between April to about 1 month ago were ( most recent first then moving out further to early April ) HFWA, LNKB, JVA, PFE, UCTT, WDC, SMCI, BAC, GLAD, LCID. There have been several positions I have thinned in the past 6 months yet my bias is to accumulate thin and then accumulate. I'll explain my reasoning. 1- longer term the stock market has tended to rise. 2- Eventually I might want this money in retirement 3- most likely my kids will outlive me and they can go WTF was he thinking. 4- I've heard several times that had a person invested 1,000 in stock x y or z they would be a millionaire today so I have kept the long term in kind looking out 40 years. 5- I look at stock indexes as a very well managed portfolio. 6- there is nothing wrong with investing in the sp 500 because that index by itself tends to out perform most people's portfolios. I'll summarize. The SP 500 is your simplest investment to hold onto

Justanotherhitman

I remember doing that. BAC was low 30s so I bought a leap at $40. Sold it after it doubled, I knew the potential. Bought it for like 1.20, sold at like 2.50 something when it was still mid 30s. Last time I looked when there was a year left on it the stock was at like 45 a share. Would've made like 900% but took profit.

BAC crappy stock. One of my biggest regrets. Making money overall but I could’ve bought QQQ instead.

DepressedChargersFan

Invest every time people are panicking. It’s the Warren buffet strategy but I swear every time an established stock drops I scoop up as much as I can. Tyson, Rivian, tech stocks during layoffs in 2023, BAC & ALLY during the bank closings of 2024 (think that’s the right year). I only do this with a minimal amount of my portfolio but it’s such an easy way to increase gains

Hey, I'm 18 and i live in RO {Europe). I get around 200-300 EUR per month from scholarships and allowances. i would be willing to invest around 60 EUR per month, maybe 80 or 90 EUR if i catch on well. I don't have a clear objective (house/car etc.) but i'd like to basically maximise this money in a year with a risk tolerance of losing maximum 50% of the investment. After this year i will end college and i will probably get a job allong with uni. I don't have anything invested yet. I tried investing 50 USD in some stocks (MEG, NVDA, BAC, CRM) in february, but then sold them in under a month with a 10USD loss because i had a low risk tolerance. I have also invested 52USD in BTC but sold it too with only 1 USD difference. I have no debts and no utilities to pay except gym membership and some meals. Do you guys have any recommendations for me? i just opened an account on trading212.

Based on @kk7766 comments so far, the best play which carries risk and reward is the ticker change, when it becomes PEW it will become a 10 bagger+ with Donald Jr ringing the bell. He literally just posted on X 4 hours ago and CLBR pumped. Now imagine when all the media draws attention to this, the algos consuming the Bloomberg, Yahoo, Reuters articles about CLBR and Donald TP Jr ringing the bell? It's going to explode. Question is psychologically, can you hold through the volatility? Hedgefunds, banks, and deep pockets can scare retail small time investors into selling or trigger their stop loss switchs, and then pump back again. Given the bullish speculation on CLBR (mostly from reddit and some X users) don't be surprised if an algo tries to bully you psychologically. Take it from a former quant at DB, BAC and BARC pre Volcker Rule we used all the tricks, we used to monitor 1000s of inputs order book, short interest, rolling averages, articles, depending on the desired output we could drive volatility.

You can buy it from a bunch of different places in powder. I do Polaris peptides. It’s just some guy buying from China and then sending each batch in to be tested. It’s like 100 bucks a month depending on what dose you need. People say it’s not safe but I disagree and know a bunch of doctors that do this as well. You just have to be smart enough to know how to compound it with BAC water yourself and know how to give yourself the correct dosage.

If their shares of everything were new, sure. But they're decades old. Their KO shares are $3. So they're gonna be generating 100% dividend yield in a couple years. There's no replicating their returns because there's no replicating that. Their dividend income on BAC this year is over a billion.
