What if..... Hear me out; WE STOP SPECULATING AND BASE THE MARKET OFF OF FACTS!!!!!!!????? All this bullshit "earnings reports came out better than expected but it was already priced in and wall street had higher expectations so the price goes down, or in this case market moves based off ONE feds comment at a press conference, etc" Fucking morons with too much money. "Buy the rumor sell the news" is why traders blow up accounts

Sorry I should have included the Contract addresses. Technically you should always get the CA from reliable sources (official X account , website, official subreddit etc). Always use the CA to make sure you get the right coin. ETH is the native one with the lost liquidty and great for large purchases . Base and Sol are where you can get it for minimal fees. We did a wormhole to SOL and bridged to Base. All the same supply and other technical stuff...see below and use those to buy.

Nobody can tell you that. You’re fixated on one stock instead of LEARNING BASE KNOWLEDGE so that you’d be able to answer that yourself.
*Completely* unrelated to the topic being discussed here, but I had no idea BASE jumping was an acronym.
Yeah this seems more like a case of “Daredevil dies doing stunt”. Kirk’s whole deal was visiting campus and “debating”, but that was often what we saw in the video before he died: an ernest and aggrieved person asking a question and Kirk publically humiliating him with some non-engaging, derisive misdirection. Kirk did this many dozens of times per year and probably publically humiliated hundreds of people per year. Humiliating people is a hazard with an ancient and proven track record. It’s like putting on hundreds of thousands of miles motorcycling, or doing lots of BASE jumping. There is a cold hard mathematics that starts to follow behind you.
QQQ just googled: "BASE jumping"
No. Don't let him off that easy, or better yet, don't let off his staff that easy. All anyone in his cabinet has to do is describe this to him. He knows that HIS BASE won't do any of their homework and look it up for themselves, knowing that they all watch Fox "News". Trump maybe stupid, but he knows how tariffs work. He just trusts that his followers don't.

Great point! Exactly, now we're getting somewhere. Do you know what QE is? It's what people really mean when they say "money printing". You'd never believe how it works. It goes like this: They create reserves out of thin air. These reserves are then used to buy treasuries from primary dealers Did you know that 40% of all USD in circulation was created post 2019, during COVID? That's printing! It's since gone down 4% in a rare bout of QT, but that's peanuts relatively speaking. Also, from 2020 to present, inflation rose a cumulative 21.5%. What's strange is that consumption, measured by PCE, rose 10.4% in real terms during the same time period. Now this is far from a detailed economic analysis, but hopefully you see the point: If real consumption didn't double, what caused the massive 21.5% spike in inflation? Could it be that it has something to do with printing... 40% OF THE ENTIRE MONETARY BASE IN A MATTER OF YEARS? 😮 No, that can't be it... Yes, it's more complicated than that I'm practice, but that's the core truth.

Nobody else is taking about this, this means that it will be 55%, PLUS THE BASE HS, plus section 301. This still means that the total tarrifs paid would be between 67% ish to 95%ish ( the ish is there because it depends on the HS code the item is)

We're only 3% down from before the tariffs were announced. We have tariffs on every single country in the world and have a 145% BASE tariff on our third biggest trading partner. Trade is expected to drop by over 70% with China in the second quarter. TSLA is up 15% from the day they announced their earnings, despite having a massive earnings miss and seeing a 70% loss in net income. Their PE ratio is 143 right now. Microsoft's P/E ratio was 80 before the dot com crash in 2000. Cisco's was 130. Please tell me who exactly is delusional here?

Despite these findings, China continues to supply goods and services used by the United States for dual-use and defense purposes.

I always hear these comments and NEVER hear one salient candidate that would have had any REAL chance of beating Trump other than the incumbent ticket. It’s just a mealy mouthed expression of frustration that doesn’t create any solution or forward thought. NO ONE ON THE CURRENT LINE UP OF DEMOCRATS HAS ENERGIZED A LARGE ENOUGH BASE TO SYNERGIZE VOTES. It’s the unfortunate reality of a large disparate party that hasn’t found their next leader.
So are we gonna see another squeeze tomorrow or are we going BASE Jumping?
Lets do a little thought excercise. Lets get Apple, Nike, Lululemon, etc opening factories in the US to get around tariffs. First off the land acquisition costs in the US are insane compared to China and other developing nations. Then there is the wages, even if you pin the federal minimum wage to the laughably low rate it is now, those positions are unlikely to be filled by US workers at the levels required to mass produce the goods. Most people seem to understand that, but the next part will probably blow a few minds. THERE IS STILL AN ENORMOUS CONSUMER BASE OUTSIDE OF THE USA THAT WILL BUY IPHONES AND SNEAKERS. Why would those companies close up their factories in China and Vietnam, when the other rich consumer economies haven't put tariffs in place. They will crank up capex and prices ONLY FOR AMERICAN CONSUMERS. Just to meet the presidents whims. It won't fucking work and if you are a bol right now I genuinely question your sanity.

I think the state of this subreddit has become quite stale with posts. Yea, Elon sucks, that’s fine and I get it. However, I own a Tesla and know others with them, and literally none of your points hold. I know a colleague who regularly uses Tesla FSD to drive 40 miles to work everyday without issue and I have also used it plenty of times now. It makes left turns without issue. It drives incredibly well (previously owned an Audi Quattro and I am still impressed by the ride quality and handling of my Tesla). Nobody I know with a Tesla has had a recall monthly, in fact no recalls period. My camera has never failed and the car is remarkably accurate in 360 viewing. It’s fine to hate Elon, but quit talking out your ass. They make the best EV car and offer the most for the price. I can’t think of another car brand that offers rear heated seats and a heated steering wheel on their BASE model, for free, amongst the plethora of other things that despite Reddit whining are NOT paid features.

I do sell naked calls on obvious plays like ffie. I obviously wouldn’t do it on something like nvda, but I will short straddles and condors and such if it looks viable. I do keep tabs on them, and it is nerve wracking if something goes south fast, but you have to keep your eyes on the greeks and remember your plan. It might mean adding a leg by selling or buying, it might mean closing the legs that went south and keeping the profitable ones, and so on. The key is to plan it out n advance using whatever modeling tools you like, and stick to the plan. I am dealing with a reasonably sized portfolio and can stand the risks I’m taking. I think people should ease into options with conservative plays so they can experience things like an iv crush or an unexpected move in the underlying. It’s not a boglehead approach, and it’s just good sense to have a set of low risk funds and cash equivalents, but it’s not like financial BASE jumping or something.

ADA compliant steps up, BASE jump down, classic MSFT
You can retire when you have enough assets to cover your expenses for the rest of your lives. If you don’t know your expenses, then you’re gambling that you do have enough. Go back through your checkbook registers, credit card statements, and any other records of your expenses and make a spreadsheet, by month, of what you are spending. Expenses aren’t a flat monthly recurring thing; you might pay more for electricity in the summer months to run your A/C, pay twice a year for auto insurance, and so on. Don’t guess. You have the actual numbers on,one or on paper already. If you’re spending $10K on average, then you need $120,000 per year. Take your total assets (minus what you owe) and divide by $120,000. That’s the BASE number of years you can make it before running out of money. If the years are more than you would live to 90 or 100, you can easily retire. If not, you need to factor in conservative investments to make up the difference. If you can’t make it on your investments plus social security, you need to reduce your expenses. Or work in retirement. Conservative investments means bonds or CDs, not crypto and individual stocks. Historically, the thinking has been something like 60/40 stocks to bonds. More conservative is 70/30 or 80/20. If you have won the game, no point in taking risks.

Holy shit you’re right. The BASE case for Canadian real estate is a 31% drop (prob worse since we’re already at 14% and job losses are just starting). Peak being 15x income in 2022, average being 9x income (for the last 20 years). A 30% drop would bring us back to 9x income or ~$575k by 2026-2027 using mean revision. A lot of people are about to realize they have way less saved up for retirement
Why is BASE going down after positive earnings reports ?
mad respect dude. I see folks like you the way I see folks who do shit like BASE jumps - impressive as hell with balls of steel but no fucking way I'm going to do it.
Also your second issue seems to be actually shorting stock, instead of buying puts. Shorting puts you at risk of being wiped out, as I'm sure you now know. Look at what happened with Bill Ackman and Herbalife. Icahn came in to get revenge from a personal vendetta and it almost wiped out Bill, even when Bill was correct. Buying puts means you can be wrong small, and forces you to come up with a reasonable timeframe, be it 6, 12 months say, and factor in IV. If you can't generate 10x+ returns on your BASE case, that frankly isn't good enough upside to make the bet. Sit in cash and wait. Implied vol calmed down in July-Aug 2008, RIGHT before shit got real. At the time, there was rapid rising unemployment, interest rates coming down, significant weak spots (I.e. subprime loans etc), yet the hope was "oh everything will be fine". Calm before the storm. If at some point in the next 12 months markets appear to "calm down", even if unemployment is accelerating (not just rising but accelerating), that's complete complacency, THAT'S when puts are cheap (downside low upside high)

Genuine question, I understand that the app is bad. I haven’t found much that’s interesting on Netflix either. But that doesn’t exactly tell me why they would tank post earnings. Because Netflix being bad was a thing for a while. And I am trying to find a reasoning into their recent movements to come to the basis of why they would move up/down. And that’s what I can’t make sense of your post. I am not saying it’s a bad play, but I guess there isn’t enough to go by compared to ur other plays for example BASE, HPE.

If you believe in the Bitcoin cycle, COIN stands to gain a lot in the bull cycle of 2025. Coinbase is building out it's infrastructure so that it's not so exposed to the volatility of the 4 year BTC cycles (look into BASE chain). There are many cons, COIN is leading regulatory battles and has contributed sizeably to crypto lobbies in Washington. Their lawsuits go hand in hand with the lobbying, they are trying to legitimize crypto by introducing friendlier regulations to the industry. If you believe in the leadership to navigate Washington and get what they want plus believe in crypto then COIN is a good buy. I've been buying since $40, sold, and now have LEAPs that expire mid 2025.
23 yo, European, I didn't like cash sitting in my bank acc so I put 50k into: Berkshire 51% NASDAQ100 ETF 16% IBM 10% RBRK 7% DIS 4% SYNA 4% OPRA 4% BASE 2% SNOW 2% My plan is to add a certain % of my salary monthly 50/50 into BRK and ETF. Any advice is welcome, i'm a newbie.
Agree. For example, see tickers: MDB, BASE, AI
Thanks for the BASE and HPE calls they saved my ass on NDX short on Bull run. I’m also long in HPE for sept small compared to your 100k
Well I guess u can’t win em all. Are u still holding ur BASE puts, WOT?
Eh your BASE play was pretty slick. Going to be tough to beat for sheer entertainment. What are you thoughts on your SOXL hedge?
I thought we were cooked with the BASE puts when they had the EC spike up but here we are
$BASE (*cough* notfinancialadvice *cough*)
Hey u/WOTEugene I have been following your plays for the last week or so, and HPE and BASE worked well for me. I'm now looking into ORCL and ADBE for the next week to get calls on them. I wanted to see if I could get your opinion. From what I see for ORCL, there's a lot of hype around their AI initiatives which has been carrying them well. They have beaten their EPS and guidance for the past few quarters. For the one quarter they didn't, the stock tanked hard. But given the current demand and Oracle's deep involvement in AI, I feel like it should be going up rather than down. And Adobe is something I’m also looking at. They've consistently beaten EPS estimates and their AI-powered tools, like Adobe Sensei, are driving growth. Adobe's strong market position in digital media and its recent product updates have been well-received. Given their track record, I feel they have good potential. What do you think?
Damnit missed the BASE play. If it hits $15 like you expect, I might risk some 60dte calls
