I would have thought that qqq would be down a LOT more.
Shorts are fucked, they reloaded A LOT of ammo today and the stock still ended up being up for the day. This can easily moon.
It’s been my best performing trades! I took some losses in October but the V days have been treating me well with them in particular. I’m not a fan of crypto at all, but it makes money 😂 I find it correlates a LOT with my small caps too. I recommend everyone learns it for that reason alone. If anyone gets in, be careful at 100k, we might swing down even harder to current ranges and then to the 65k-78k range. It’s simple but good profits if you know your basement and ceiling. Plenty of other catalysts to consider besides VWAP, but it helps to know what the whales are looking at
Nowadays you do not need a certain amount to open an account and invest. How many shares you buy just scales the investment gains or loses. IPOs are risky because their pricing is driven mostly by hype. Most members stocks and investing in a company because you heard such and-such (gossip) is just gambling with a dash of arrogance (does he think no one else has heard about it? -- this effect is often referred to as "already priced into the market"). New investors, especially young ones, tend to view investing like a get rich quick scheme where they're going to double their money overnight and become rich and retire at 25. That's again just gambling and it rarely works out. The market average return is under 10% and after the past few years, the return may well be under 5% for the next few (but who knows). Fwiw, the only money I've lost investing was on the recommendation of a broker about how great a stock's upside was (just before Dotcom). When I invest in companies with solid business models that I use and know well OR indices in the "meet not beat" approach, I've made a LOT of money...but it takes time. I'd recommend your son open an account and start reading about investing. Continue to dissuade him from going into debt to invest -- that's a losing strategy. Even paying down a mortgage can beat investing if the interest rate is over 6% or so (and how boring is that?) Encourage him to open a RothIRA to invest in. If he wants to buy individual shares, have him pick a company he really likes and research it. Buy a share and see how it does, or track several stock picks in a hypothetical holding to see how he does. Invest the same amount in an index fund with auto-reinvest.
Would've lost a LOT of money
it will tank hard. it has run up a LOT
He's going to have to run a LOT harder to beat the previous record set by Musk.
Pepperidge farms remembers A LOT more volatility. This is volatility for ants
how to avoid the interest rate decision? simple, buy a stock that is already down a LOT today... LAKE lol
Yes, but the argument is simple. and does not need more then a simple argument based on a common agreeable idea... "Not all active investors can outperform the market for a long period of time". It simply is not possible. So for everyday investor WHO CARES if Lynch, Greenblatt, so and so did it. The question is, "Can you spot the NEXT person EX ANTE who can do it over their investing lifetime post fees, taxes, and inflation over the default option (passive index investing)?" Bogle did an analysis of active funds going against his now VFINX since its inception (1976 or so) to about 25 years later. So, REAL time forward returns. He compared it to EVERY single large cap active fund over that time period that existed (taking survivorship bias out). The was something like <1% of ALL those funds beat his simple VFINX by more then a conservative 1-2%/ year to cover the friction of active management. The above only makes sense... Bessbinder in his famous publication a few years ago found ONLY 4% of ALL stocks were responsible for ALL the return of the market since 1926 over treasuries. So yeah asking a active management to find those 4% of stocks AND know when to get in and out along with the market gyrations is asking A LOT. Really shocking folks nowadays could expect active management to work considering history has shown it NOT to work when information and technology was less available. T
Ever since softbank made the mm's lift a finger off the anal bead vibrator remote last month we've been learning a LOT about tokyo lmao. How much you wanna bet every big bank has a seat in the executive suit in that bank now? That shit brought about the largest QQQ order ever seen. Made shreks pee pee look like a peanut.
I'm sure you've already been told this, but you complain a LOT.
Do a LOT of paper trading!!
It's kind of like rain when there's a drought. Yes it's going to help, no it won't solve the problem, and within a few weeks you'll have forgotten all about it. Plus there's a LOT of pushback against more farm welfare so it's possible that might not even happen.
Where are you getting 2,000 hours annually from? At a very conservative 25 mph average speed, that’s still 25x2,000=50,000 miles per year that they’d be driven. That is a LOT of miles for a luxury SUV, particularly Jaguar. That is significant maintenance.
People in my life are not on Reddit and care about politics A LOT. They all boycott Amazon, for instance. (I'm French so politics there are different, but I'd say people in general, inside and outside the US, care more and more about politics, not less.)
looks like a hedge for a LOT of shorted stock ...
To the OP's credit, they own a LOT more than just Paypal and Venmo. If you are looking for an app that moves money, there is a good chance Paypal owns or is partial owner. With solid global coverage.
These are both reasonable statements. Tesla valuation is based on them winning BY A LOT which it looks like will not happen. They can be the “winner” by having a the largest market share, yet still not live up to their valuation
I think a LOT of people got blown up end of October
In fairness, Netflix put in a LOT of money on the table. Just that Paramount came back with: "See, my dick is larger". They are both f'd though. The dick swinging contests rarely work.
Thank you for clarifying this! I definitely have A LOT of research to do. This makes sense, and I appreciate you clarifying.
I am so EXCITED about tomorrow! It's going to be beautiful with a little bit of happening and a whole LOT of nothing happening and ending flat at the end. and once again I'm eating good from the decaying premiums from both sides. gobble gobble gobble just like i love gobbling cox
^ this guy cares A LOT about MSTR
Not upset in the least. Some of us are up a LOT more than others, and it shows.
There is also a LOT of manipulation and abusers on Reddit. Especially /r/pennystocks and /r/10xpennystocks is full of pumpers and dumpers preying on the unsuspecting. Buyer beware!!!
I've read A LOT of scientific journal articles in my career, and this is very very far from something that looks publish-able. I'll admit I don't understand much of the subject matter, but good papers, especially ones purporting extraordinary breakthroughs, make things easy to understand, not difficult. This paper has grandiose claims amid an unending avalanche of poorly defined variables and boderline-pretentious, often misleading vocabulary. It would shock me to see this work published in any reputable journal. To be honest, it looks \*designed\* to be difficult to follow, making me think its either written by someone with no experience in academia, or its completely bullshit. Considering the only link of the single author is to a twitter account that has only 4 posts (all of which were made in the last hour), I would bet a lot of money that this is complete nonsense, and probably ai generated
And now Netflix can feed it a LOT of beloved characters and stories without copyright infringement. And cut humans out.
A LOT of people that can't afford any of that BS and are still driving/buying $5k cars. And will be for the foreseeable future
For Netflix is like now being in a marriage that feels “we could lose a job and be fine” to “we really need both incomes to keep this comfortable.” While still spending A LOT OF MONEY creating the ~content 🤮~ to try to keep the fickle consumer happy (who is already getting tired of it all)
It’s all expense right now a LOT of it and regulatory bullshit. Be looking out for the “President of Peace” documentary covering the entire Netflix homescreen.
Oh please, it's making an illegal copy of an existing product. I'm not losing sleep over that. You made me curious to see what Netflix's price has been over the years. The first plan was $7.99 in 2011, which according to the CPI inflation calculator is about $11.78 now. While it is true that the lowest cost Netflix subscription is now $7.99, that is $7.99 with ads. That plan also doesn't include a LOT of programming for "licensing" reasons. If you want to stream in HD, you originally had to pay $9.99 in 2013, or $14.09 in today's money. That plan is now $17.99, a 27% jump in cost. God forbid you wanted the 4K plan, which started at $11.99 in 2013, which would be $16.91 in today's money. But, now that plan costs $24.99 or a ridiculous 47% jump in price. Internet speeds and bandwidth keep increasing which makes it cheaper to send higher bandwidth content. So no, Netflix's prices have risen quite a lot for the standard and premium plans. Like I said elsewhere, I am fine purchasing a digital copy of a movie or show that would be mine forever to own, the same way with physical media. I'm tired of paying for moronic subscriptions where these companies continue to squeeze out any money they can from us.
Listen, if you provided any value with your initial post, I would have commented positively. Instead, you “gave the stock rating a hold” as if your evaluation somehow means something at this stage and talked about a write down as if that matters even a tick. It doesn’t. If you want to evaluate financials, there are a LOT of companies out there you can do that for where it matters. But for a company that is literally entering the last stages of acquisition process, there are only a few things that actually matter. 1. What is the price that the buyer is willing to pay - in this case, about $28.00 a share. 2. Will the deal be completed. 3. What happens if it doesn’t get completed. That’s basically it. Your waxing about debt or what does or doesn’t “bode well for the company” is all in the past. It literally doesn’t matter and frankly, hasn’t matters for months. At this stage, Netflix has already taken a peek under WBDs dress along with many other companies and they all know what’s under there. There are no surprises. The net/net of this in terms of money (because this is an investing sub, and that’s what I’m here for) is that if you own WBD, you’ll get about $28.00 out of it at this point. You can maybe juice some more by selling calls, or maybe playing around with price action, etc. but aside from picking up a few extra cents left over that are laying around on the railroad track, or betting on a massive derailment by the DOJ, this train has left the station. If you think that opinion makes my shit stink, or are unhappy with my pointing that out to you and feel you’ve got to use more of your top notch “sarcasm” on me, feel free, I’m going to go collect my check.
Logic engine is internal to these LLMs, they reason before making decisions. What it does is go through A LOT of data at every turn before making decisions.
Often yes. Not sure about the statistic but I think JP Morgan did research on this, and basically if you miss out on top 10 days of the year (which by trying to time the market you likely will), you lose a lot of gains. Don't remember how much but A LOT.
They were arguably previously undervalued because the price was factoring in anti-trust concerns. Since that ruling has now gone in googles favor, the risk has gone away in that time period, meaning the stock would go up. You might say Gemini is less good anecdotally but a lot of sentiment (also anecdotal) is that its now better than chat gpt. Unlike chat gpt theres a clearer path to monetization with ads in ai overviews and ads in ai mode. Chat gpt has runors of adding ads too, but google is working with a LOT more data, which will also benefit training their AI in the long run. Not to mention more ways to integrate gemini in their ecosystem across gmail, drive, etc. Their tpus could be an interesting source of revenue but as you said its a small % of revenue. The bigger deal though is that they are not bottlenecked and limited by nvidia; other companies will have greater issues if nvidia cant keep up with production etc but its possible google is less tied to nvidias success. Theres also an argument that of we are looking at the far far future that google is the farthest along for quantum computing which could be the next big thing, although we are far from practical applications. However fundamentally i do actually agree google could be overvalued but its overvalued just like every other AI stock is; we are just in crazy times right now. But i dont think google is necessarily overvalued relative to its peers.
I definitely think the stock market landscape will change in 5 years, it will be a LOT of AI everywhere, both on the retail and institutional side. As for giving others the idea, there are already a handful of such competitions in the crypto space so the cat is already out of the bag. I just thought options is more complex and a lot more fun compared to crypto
Walmart has moved A LOT of their delivery to sub contracted uber-esque (spark?) delivery drivers and its TERRIBLE. Half the time I don't get my items, they show up 3 weeks late or the orders get cancelled.
Netflix. What are we thinking people? $110 or $99 next? It's fallen a LOT in the past month... tempted.
Wow after taking a 6.5% hit to the port on Monday/Tuesday back to ATH value after adding to EOSE in the 12s yesterday morning. Its back at 15 now lol. EOSE will be a $50 stock by the end of 2027 at the latest, possibly A LOT sooner if the AI bubble continues to expand. Seriously, do some DD on EOSE. CHeck out twitter, tons of people there with excellent models and spreadsheets and DCFs with multiple scenarios.
67 year old boomer here. Retired 12 years ago (retired 2013). I was 60/40 Stocks/Cash(Bonds) all the way up to Covid and also the previous 10 years while before retirement (IOW when I retired I didn't really change at all). Then on the big Covid downturn I moved a lot of cash (and bonds) to equities and got to 85/15 for a few months. Then slowly started selling equities and as the market kept rising got it back to 60/40 again about 2 years ago. As the market still kept soaring I wanted a little more protection of my gains and about a year ago I started doing a LOT MORE aggressive covered calls and end up letting positions get called away (which was my plan and still is) and right now have it at 53/47 Equities/Cash(CDs). And have also recently added a Protective Put Ratio Spread. If and when the market finally comes to its senses (IMO) and a big drop occurs again, then I will go on another equity buying spree. I am just 1 boomer and not saying we all do this, but that is how I am doing it. Certainly a long way from 80/20. But I am sure a lot of boomers retiring will draw down, but IMO I think this AI boom has drawn a whole lot of new investors. I see a lot people saying on Reddit say they are new to investing and this reminds me exactly of the 2000 tech boom/bust and I think that a similar AI boom/bust will be the more likely reason for any coming big downturn (although boomers drawing down won't help it either). This time I am much more ready for a bust this time compared to 2000 when I was completely decimated with my personal investing (401K was hurt also, but it recovered as the market recovered).
A LOT of people do this actually. Long story short pharmaceutical ads were never illegal, but used to require listing out every single side effect ever recorded for the medication, which can often go on for multiple pages in scientific journals, so it just wasn't practical. Then someone found a loophole, if you didn't say the name of the drug you didn't have to list any of the side effects. The first company to run an ad for a drug without naming it, but just saying "there's a way to treat [insert thing here], talk to your doctor today about it" was enough to boost that drug's sales by something absurd like over 6,000%, this success caused all the drug companies to start advertising to. Eventually the regulations were changed to make it practical for them to mention the name of the drug.
1st question: Are you an only child? If so, then get a low cost fiduciary as a back up and make a plan, and not your buddy from high school, really dig for the right person. There will be a lot of digging to do to find assets so let a professional do that. If you are solo, you are about to travel a very long and hard road so it would be to have a professional at hand. 2nd question: If you have siblings, then you HAVE to get everyone on the same page. Each adult child seems to have ideas about 'mom and dads' wealth and where and how it should be spent. I just spent 10 years (maybe more) managing my mother's assets (houses and money). It was A LOT OF WORK AND WORRY. I was VERY lucky that my siblings trusted me and supported my decisions. But this topic can rip your family apart, especially if one parent is slipping into dementia (which often comes with paranoia) and one of your siblings has special access, or a chip on their shoulder or needs more money. 3rd question: is there a will? is there POA? is there medical POA? Before you invest, you MUST get all this tidy. Here's tip, we had a joint checking/brokerage accounts with my sister and mother. This allowed us to move quickly with the estate and did not have to get an EIN for the estate (which requires a separate tax return ...ugh). Also, all brokerage accounts were 'transfer on death' but with two parents you will need to figure out what will happend for the surviving parent. I also had to manage a separate Trust (which had its own tax return EVERY YEAR). I would not recommend the Trust path if you can avoid. 4th question: can they age in place? or will they eventually need to move as they age. Do they live near, could you build an ADU on your proprety for them? They could rent from you and they could pocket the equity from their house. Keep in mind, assisted living is about $6,000 - $7000/month for an average, nice facility. How long can you pay for that with their current assts? They have five years to Medicare, that's 60 months x $7,000 = $420,000 just to make it to 65 ... my mother died at nearly 97. you are asking all the right questions and your heart seems to be in the right place, I wish you the very best.
I would advise you learn about what you're investing in. Learn about the different foundational blockchains, and what they offer to real world institutions. People who invest in crypto are banking on widespread adoption in the global financial system. Do your research (there's A LOT to learn about blockchain technology) and take other people's opinions with a grain of salt. I would personally stay away from meme coins if you decide to continue investing in crypto.
It protects from A LOT of stuff. It also is something that by default goes to the Grantor's descendants only, making that part of estate planning easy. And it keeps itself away from the money-grubber lawyers in Probate.
Yeah, it seems like a really, really bad idea. A lot of this lending is happening behind the scenes in the private credit market, which has a lot less transparency, so it's really hard to get a sense of how much money is at stake here, but given the orgy of CapEx spending, it's likely a LOT. Unfortunately, a lot of normal banks and pension funds invest in private credit, so losses will not be confined to a few weird funds that cater to the wealthy...
i just switched from GPT plus to Gemini Pro, what a difference and frankly, I am finding that a LOT of information GPT provided me is turning out to be inaccurate as I run the same info against Gemini. Not going back.
Yeah honestly your posts last month made me A LOT of money so I followed you on the calls today but should've sold when you did I'm holding and getting wrecked are you gonna do any more trades this week or sit tight as you were originally planning?
Yeah. You need a LOT of risk appetite for 300% margin. To her credit OP does seem to have the required risk tolerance.
>What do you think happens when Europe is taken over by Russia? Is the entirety of Europe incapable of fending off Russia? Is that what you're telling me right now? Because Europeans are of the belief that they are superior to Russia, both militarily and economically, and I believe so, as well. What Europe lacks is the will to actually do anything without the US leading the way. >You think China is going to stand around while Russia expands? The same China Europe was pivoting toward as a get-back at the US? That China? >The US also made commitments because it benefits the U.S. They also did so at the expense of Europe because we export a lot of our military might. If Europe decided to defend itself adequately, it would hurt a LOT of our major industries. How much has the US committed and delivered to date? How much more do we need to commit and for how long? What's the number? In perpetuity, and at the barrel of an economic gun? >If Europe decided to defend itself adequately, it would hurt a LOT of our major industries. Which is it? Is Russia going to roll over Europe or is Europe going to magically do in 6 months what takes everyone else decades to build and procure? >Maybe learn and think a little bit instead of getting emotional for being called out on not holding up our end of the deal. Lmao suck my dick. I already said I think we should do more for Ukraine because its the right thing to do. What I'm not going to do is help Ukraine because we're being threatened to do so, or else. If that's the game Europe wants to play, then fuck it. Have fun with Russia.
Holy shit you can hide the amount of money in ur Robinhood account by clicking on the number THAT WOULDVE SAVED ME A LOT OF SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
What do you think happens when Europe is taken over by Russia? You think Russia is just gonna suddenly play nice with the U.S.? You think China is going to stand around while Russia expands? The US also made commitments because it benefits the U.S. They also did so at the expense of Europe because we export a lot of our military might. If Europe decided to defend itself adequately, it would hurt a LOT of our major industries. Maybe learn and think a little bit instead of getting emotional for being called out on not holding up our end of the deal. Heavy is the burden of greatness
I started trading in 2021 and was really rolling in 2022 so I sold a LOT of things too early. NVDA was definitely one of them ($385 fml), AMD was another ($118), also SOFI, MELI, AAPL ($152). I just got hype making it to one year and being able to take all the gains at the long tax rate. Whoops! Helped me transfer some of those gains from a taxable to a Roth, I guess, but... I regret those sales every day lmao.
Yeah no. It matters A LOT. That debt is borrowed from big players all over the world. It's in the trillions. When they rise rates that has to be payed back. The entities that borrow almost exclusively do it to invest in US equities. So what happens next? Well in order to pay back the borrowed money they need to sell those equities. What does that do to markets, if there's a few trillion or so being dumped? It tanks them. The unwind hasn't happened yet. You'll know when it does. It will matter to your portfolio
>Maybe make Congress appointed judges 7 (max) every 4-6 years. The *intention* of lifetime appointments for judges is that they'll be able to do their job *without* the political maneuvering that other politicians have to engage in to stay relevant. I think Congressionally appointed judges would just lead to the Supreme Court reflecting the same status quo as Congress. That is, a stalemate of two sides that will only cooperate when it benefits big corporations, foreign intervention, or expanding domestic surveillance. I think Congress is at the root of A LOT of our problems. They're supposed to check the other branches, but it seems our "power-hungry" politicians don't actually *want* power. They want prestige and attention, so they let the other two branches take over more and more of their responsibilities because indecision is preferable to making a decision that turns out to be unpopular. Congress is useless, and they never suffer because of it. That's why I believe government shutdowns need to trigger automatic elections for all members, if they can't do their job get someone who will. Roe v. Wade being repealed wouldn't matter if Congress had bothered making a law about it, but they never tried. Our President impulsively bombing other countries without asking for permission would be a bigger deal if Congress hadn't already been letting them do that since 2001.
Maybe check a little more often than once a decade. I mean Obama was president then - a LOT of water has passed under the bridge since then.
If you have made A LOT I would first take some profits in both and put them into a boring but 'safer' ETF. And if you aren't selling A LOT of shares for lifestyle chips then I'd just go 50/50, obviously dependent on your weighting in either stock.
Sell BOTH. It’s utterly insane to hold A LOT of money (which I’m going to assume is also most of your money) in two companies, doubly insane to do so after holding for 15 years during which both stocks have posted historically and massively outsized gains. Take the money, park it in something safe, enjoy the life you’ve been rewarded. And before anyone talks about further gains: a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.
I would sell the AAPL because they are growing (A LOT) slower. The current FY will be their first real top and bottom line growth after 3 flat years. I would say NVDA today is what AAPL was 10-12 years ago, but an even more dominant force. And yes I acknowledge it comes with a lot of risk too. If those 2 equities are your only holdings, I'd probaby advise you diverisfy some anyways. And another option is to just sell a mix of both if you are having trouble deciding.
1. SGOV bought on margin cannot be used as collateral for CSPs 2. The "entire profit" you are talking about is 60$/month. And the risk? Margin risk, Bond risk, Liquidity risk, Assignment risk, volatility risk, margin call if SGOV lowers even slightly 3. Point 1 means that your CSPs are not cash secured, they are naked. Your cash will already be used, you get margin called, and you will owe a LOT of money you probably can't pay. 4. SGOV yields 5.2%, you borrow at 5.25%. That is a negative carry trade You're essentially trying to create a worse version of the wheel
A lot of people 60 and up who basically hit adulthood after the internet came about just don’t have the skills to understand that just about anything can be learned online in a very short time. Like their mindset isn’t to just google or ChatGPT anything. It’s sad to see but there’s a LOT of folks like your dad who are going to have a very rough retirement as benefits are cut and cost soar
do you see all the companies already that are already invested in OpenAI cancelling their contracts and moving to GCP? Don't get me wrong, the Google announcement is absolutely interesting but TPUs are very specific. To your point if the margins on TPUs are lower, GOOG/AVGO need to sell A LOT of product to match the sales of Nvidia. Investors like companies that sell with high margins like Apple. If you're telling me that a company with high volume and low margins is a good buy, I'm going to be tough to convince.
I don't doubt you make that much on CSP's, but you have to at least admit there's a LOT of risk there. I'm much more conservative, calendarized spreads with an eye on Vega.... no 10% weeks, but consistently green regardless of direction.
My ex husband is a veteran - with a brain injury and now a brain tumor. Wait time to see an initial specialist when he started smelling coffee that wasnt there - 4 months - through civilian healthcare because he never got a confirmed appointment at 3 months. So 7 months total..you with ne here? Next specialist to assess for dementia or other brain disorder - 18 months. We live in an area where there is a LOT of healthcare. This was with employer insurance and Tricare. My mother is currently on waitlist to get moved to a nursing home closer to me - she has sudden acute psychosis associated with dementia and absolutely needs nursing home care - she has Medicare , that she pays some portion into btw - shes been on this waitlist for 2 years. My youngest daughter has some gastro issues which are potentially serious - we were given a pediatric gastro referral, 4 months before we're seen for intake- im gonna pay for through the nose in the last month of the year before my deductible resets in January. My aunt literally died because her pcp decided she was depressed because she kept complaining of fatigue and back pain - wouldnt refer her to a specialist at all - 28 months of trying to get help. When she broke down and went to the emergency room it was discovered she had stage 4 pancreatic cancer and weeks to live. She could have at least been shown kindness and palliative care. The aforementioned ex couldn't work and because his brain is scrambled, cashed out about 300k of his 401k - which put a 76k IRS lien on him and potentially the house I now legally own but havent gotten his name fully off of the house. I left medical emergency services because I couldn't handle just how incredibly bad our health are is - I pay almost half of my income (about 40k) into taxes, my retirement, and my health insurance which is a hdhp for my and my two kids and I cant afford anything beyond basic health care Please tell me what part of this model works for anyone - I'll wait until you give me the highlights.
It's been almost 20 years. Audits have changed A LOT since Enron.
It is that simple... A LOT of the voters didn't know what he was standing for, THE SECOND TIME. Did you guys forget his first term??? And almost no country in Europe would have voted for Trump 2. Fox news, the "manosphere", "Roganphere" and like 90% of political social media is (hard) right. Then the american education system is so incredibly bad... Which is by design. Worse education > vote republican. You can look this up. Sure it makes as sense the repulican party to then go and defund public schools so you get more voters you can brainwash. But that is so fucking bad long term. I don't think any of those old school republicans thought this through at all...
So did Sadam Hussein, Kadafi and Mubarak. Getting them out made things A LOT worse.
I think of it more like a LT swing trade. There is a LOT of lithium mining production coming online in the next 5 years and sodium batteries are around the corner. IOW, I am aligned with the opportunity, but I think this pick has a shelf life.
They've done a reverse stock split 5 times this year alone... They've destroyed a LOT of traders every single time. Each time they split, they said it was to consolidate their stocks down to just 1 million. They lied every time. As I said in the other thread that is singing and dancing to the beat of the SMX drum... It's great for short term, scalping, day trading right now, but be very cautious about holding any bags, because these b@5t@rds will f!#k you dry without using any lube! Enjoy the ride while it lasts, because it will come to end... And you say how about now... The above screen I posted was for the past year... I won't post the chart from the start as it is 100% down, you're free to check yourself... in other words they've destroyed almost everyone that has invested in them over that time... here's the past 3 months... It doesn't look much better does it? ...and bare in mind the stock price rose automatically upon the previous split and this latest crazy couple of days have also massively distorted the true story of this stock... I'm honestly happy for anyone that has made or continues to make any money off of this sh!t stock, I really am mate... I'm not that guy that doesn't want other traders to make good money...but I am the type of guy that would urge caution if I think it's going to save someone in the long run. https://preview.redd.it/kd3100oo134g1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=155f77d371afdea5f8d664765dcf3eaa7dd51861

It's great for short term, scalping, day trading right now, but be very cautious about holding any bags, because these b@5t@rds will f!#k you dry without using any lube! Enjoy the ride while it lasts, because it will come to end... And you say how about now... The above screen I posted was for the past year... I won't post the chart from the start as it is 100% down, you're free to check yourself... in other words they've destroyed almost everyone that has invested in them over that time... here's the past 3 months... It doesn't look much better does it? ...and bare in mind the stock price rose automatically upon the previous split and this latest crazy couple of days have also massively distorted the true story of this stock... I'm honestly happy for anyone that has made or continues to make any money off of this sh!t stock, I really am mate... I'm not that guy that doesn't want other traders to make good money...but I am the type of guy that would urge caution if I think it's going to save someone in the long run. https://preview.redd.it/qnlb3gkb134g1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b3b06a2ad51b7bf7cd5375a74056a45f3d682d0
buying $PRPH, this is going to run Monday - news dropping! already up 16% with a LOT of room to go!
Nobody went broke by taking a profit is literally the worst advice that gets posted A LOT. https://novelinvestor.com/philip-fisher-explains-growth-philosophy/ And since no one reads the article, here's the relevant part: "It is just appalling the nerve strain people put themselves under trying to buy something today and sell it tomorrow. It’s a small-win proposition. If you are truly a long-range investor, of which I am practically a vanishing breed, the profits are so tremendously greater. One of my early clients made a remark that, while it is factually correct, is completely unrealistic when he said, “Nobody ever went broke taking a profit.” Well, it is true that you don’t go broke taking a profit, but that assumes you will make a profit on everything you do. It doesn’t allow for the mistakes you’re bound to make in the investment business."
All depends on Cook's successor. GOOGL pumped a LOT while Apple is a slow grower. Can see AAPL #1, GOOGL #2, NVDA #3 by Feb and GOOGL #1 by the Summer.
Dell's earnings was very good. They beat well on EPS, an extremely small miss on rev and most importantly they raised their guidance for next quarter by a LOT. They cleared all doubts regarding margins and memory costs in their call. This is very much a repeat of what happed with MU when the analysts piled on it with stupid concerns and ratings. Disclaimer: 30 $165c 1/16/26 (in hindsight March would have been better considering the next quarter is expected much better than this already great one)
Most great smaller companies have been beaten down this year. KULR looks strong tbh I would challenge you to dig deeper. They are expanding batteries for government contracts, they own A THOUSAND BTC. Cant see a world over the next 5 years the price is a LOT higher. Just my opinion but I think one that will hold true
I use vizz today took me to the ER gave me a LOT of floater.
Is her "advice" worth $4500/ year or $375 a month? There are a lot of things that 375 could be invested in that over time would be worth a LOT more.
Damnnnnn right on the spot. A LOT. I’m down a lot YTD 😂😂😂
What you described is a BOT, which is NOT LLMs. A bot literally does the repetitive click tasks that waste people's time. LLMs, fucking generate words or combinations of numbers that generate an image. As someone that is super close to LLMs/coding/BOTs/Automation, you clearly are not in the industry or even close enough to it to refute what I stated. Go watch this [video] to have an idea of how LLMs function. They are really REALLY bad for doing what you just said. They can't reliably give the same answer EVEN WITH THE SAME INPUTS, which means they are useless for a business other than to obfuscate customers experiences on the phone to get information out of them on a complaint call. AND THAT IS ASSUMING A LOT.
I was joking below, but seriously, the information is SO out of date. I bought land. My Grandparents died, my Uncles all kept the land, it was 1000 acres that's been in our family for 130 years. But one Uncle was in a bad financial situation, so he wanted to sell. Whatever, I bought it, 2 uncles just wanted it to stay in the Family and not be responsible for property taxes, one took about 75% of the 20% he was owed, and the other took the full 20%. So... damn good deal, 35%(my Dad wanted me to keep it also). Had it select cut as it was so overgrown, there were so many beautiful trees dying and no trails, it was just full of Black Walnut on a couple of 40s and a couple MASSIVE Oak Trees that were dying, there was a Cedar Plantation from 60 years ago. But it was all overgrown. So I bought an SXS, an ATV... I got a Truck because I needed a Truck, and then I bought a Tractor with a Mulcher and one of those hedgehog attachments as well. I pissed away a LOT of money in a 2 year span, but I haven't bought anything in 2 years, yet it's John Deere, Pickup Trucks, and Polaris ATVs constantly! Oh, and a Gorilla Cart. It's always the shit I bought months ago, 2 years. Then I just look and see what I could get for my money now...
GOOGL kicking off the holiday season with a little red and a LOT OF GREEN!
As much as I understand that blaming macro makes people feel better, tech led selloffs haven’t been macro fundie based after 2022. Yes, I think there was a LOT more of “the Nasdaq is doing this without political help” then people realize before April of this year. Semis lagged pretty badly after the quick July dip in 2024 and that was always going to come back around and bite us in the butt even in Kamala world or at the very least, no tariff world at some point early this year.
All of those listed are speculative as hell and memes. People bought on vibes and they sold on vibes. For weeks everybody has been screaming bubble crash. People sold on the vibe. I'm not saying a whole ton of shit didn't go down recently by A LOT and stay down but that list...cmon. You could put BYND in there and it would be at home. Some of those companies are risky startups and do have real products and contracts and seemed promising at times but their earnings reports have been terrible.
I used to work at a company leasing hardware including servers in end of lease. We've had a client move to cloud (ironically they are a cloud storage company) from physical servers. Their leases were ~500 rack servers each and they had... well a LOT. When I left they were at lease 800+. When the leases termed, they had the option to return, extend or purchase. You would think that they would return the servers since they stated they don't need them or their 3 data centers anymore. Nope, they chose to purchase them (hard drives were purchased outright on separate 1$out leases) because "it would take too long to identify them". With their deal, each individual server would be around $2000 to purchase. I created their invoices for around $200mil+ worth of servers before I left because they couldn't be bothered to send someone to look at the service tags to return them... Another customer would extend (laptops/desktops) for 10 months, own the equipment and then return it because they couldn't be bothered to dispose of them. So they would pay their lease with around 110% RV, pay an extra 10 months, return the equipment to us on their dime (return and data wipe costs were baked in the lease from the start and split monthly). We would then dispose of the HDDs, refurbish the equipment and resell it. I think you guys might be underestimating how little some companies care about a few tens/hundreds of millions per year.
To a certain extent, it literally does - because SPY is one of the most repeatedly bought ETFs on the entire market. If a stock is contained within it, it will get a LOT more buying pressure. Obviously that on its own is not enough, but it certainly does provide a boost in the long run.
It’s gonna pick up a LOT of buyers at $322
a very bad year they say, for a lot of people .. a LOT
Meta made me good money when I bought sub-100. It’s a spender stock, so it’s hated for long periods due to explosive CapEx. When that was on the Metaverse (the ultimate bullshit), everyone hated it *A LOT* . When it’s AI, people hate it a little bit. Unclear path to big pumps from here, just expecting market returns with higher beta. But I do have a value-tilt to my mindset and maybe anchoring to when it was sub-100 being the same company
I’ve been switching my money over to VT after being heavy into VOO and VGT for years. I feel like it paid off bigly but the more I look at the numbers the more I think it was just luck, and picking sectors won’t work in the long run so I just want to hold VT. Problem is… I am going to have to pay a LOT of capital gains taxes if I sell all the VOO I currently hold. So far I’ve sold my VGT but not my VOO since there’s more of it.
Okay, so why would you pick oral semaglutide over orforglipron or even better oral VK2735? Those two are a lot, A LOT better than oral semaglutide for both efficacy and tolerability. So why oral semaglutide??
LLMs are actually quite powerful and predictive in the biological sciences, particularly in genetics where our genome is a 3B character long string that can be tokenized, and we have a LOT of sequencing data sitting around to wrangle. Evo just came out last year, so it’ll take awhile before we see publications spawn from if. Google’s AlphaFold for protein structure prediction is a major game changer, though still not perfect. Will it cure cancer? No. Has it really helped in several fields? Very much yes, to generate hypotheses and let us trim down the infinite combinations of sequence features to test in experiments. Will it replace scientists? Not any time soon. Will it generate revenue for companies? Maaaybe. But probably not anytime soon. It might narrow down the set of R&D candidates, but that’s never the expensive part for drug development. Maybe it can help curate patient selection, but I don’t think there’s enough data yet to build any kind of a model, and traditional CNNs are likely more than sufficient.
You can make a LOT of money as a janitor at financial institutions 👀
You don't quite understand how the process works. Compounds have to go through multi-year clinical trials that involve global coordination between researchers, clinical trial sites, and vendors (like we were) that provide technology platforms for running these trials. Trials have a LOT of regulatory complexity as the process has to abide by at least 3 main regulatory bodies (FDA, EMEA, and Japan's PMDA). The project managers are staying on top of these regulatory changes, managing inbound as well as outbound audits, requirements for these systems between stakeholders, and ongoing support of hundreds of thousands of clinical trial staff at sites all around the world. A big trial can have tens of thousands of subjects and thousands of sites. There is no way trials of the scope we were running would be possible without this middle layer while still maintaining regulatory adherence, ensuring data quality, and traceability in the event of future lawsuits or regulatory action. This is extremely bearish for Novo in the same way that shedding scientists was bearish for IBM, Compaq, and HP because the purpose of pharmaceutical company is one part research, one part marketing, and one part navigating the regulatory and process complexity of getting new treatments to market.
Nothing changed from Thursday to today. They're desperate to prevent a further cascade because it could get a LOT worse very quickly.
I like to drink a LOT of water beforehand, and hold my piss in all day, for as long as possible, then later on when we're back at my place, I'll go pee while she's in earshot, and there will be a LOT of pee, and she will be like "damn are you okay? is that normal?", and then we fuck
The answer is yes. Why? Because it’s the top 500 US companies working collectively to make their company more profitable. If Nvidia crashes and the stock goes to $0, the 501st most valuable company slides up into the index. You can get more resiliency with other indexes (like Russell 2000, with the top 2000 companies), but in general you get slightly lower returns. At your age, s&p 500 is perfectly fine. How does it work? Open up an excel spreadsheet or google sheets and put $100 into cell A1. In A2 (directly below), set it to “=A1*1.07” to represent a 1 year investment with an average return of 7%. A more conservative estimate would be 5%, and a more optimistic prediction is 10%. To simulate what compound investments gets you, put $100 into B2 (next to A2), and then adjust the A2 formula like this: “=(A1*1.07)+B2”. Then drag A2 and B2 down about 45 rows. This will give you a rough idea of how much money you will have when you retire. You can get a LOT more complicated than that, but this is a super simple example. You don’t need a financial advisor - just keep putting the money into an index and call it a day.
A LOT of noise to a point where it needs to be muted. Every single movement or “negative news” gets blown out of proportion.
Wild argument. A LOT of currencies are not tied to anything ‘tangible’ beyond government promises and people’s belief in their value. Bitcoin has been adopted by multiple countries, including the US. So yes its value will fluctuate in relation to other currencies (that’s how that WORKS…) but it’s not anymore likely to disappear entirely than the Euro,.
