[$PGE.v](https://x.com/search?q=%24PGE.v&src=cashtag_click) \- STILLWATER CRITICAL MINERALS!!!!! MASSIVE MRE UPDATE FROM [$PGE.V](https://x.com/search?q=%24PGE.V&src=cashtag_click) Stillwater West now hosts: • 834.5Mt at approximately 0.34% NiTEq • 5.01 Blb nickel, copper and cobalt • 7.79 Moz platinum, palladium, gold and rhodium • 6.80 Blb chromium Growth versus the 2023 MRE: • Tonnage: +228% • [\#Nickel](https://x.com/hashtag/Nickel?src=hashtag_click): +198% • [\#Copper](https://x.com/hashtag/Copper?src=hashtag_click): +217% • [\#Cobalt](https://x.com/hashtag/Cobalt?src=hashtag_click): +223% • Combined Ni + Cu + Co: +205% • [\#Platinum](https://x.com/hashtag/Platinum?src=hashtag_click): +90% • [\#Palladium](https://x.com/hashtag/Palladium?src=hashtag_click): +104% • [\#Gold](https://x.com/hashtag/Gold?src=hashtag_click): +129% • [\#Rhodium](https://x.com/hashtag/Rhodium?src=hashtag_click): +183% • Total 4E: +104% • [\#Chromium](https://x.com/hashtag/Chromium?src=hashtag_click): +200% Importantly, this is not simply a low-grade expansion. At a 0.35% NiTEq cutoff, the resource increased +123% from 119.6Mt to 266.9Mt while maintaining approximately the same 0.51% NiTEq grade. At a 0.50% cutoff, tonnage increased +132% from 38.0Mt to 88.3Mt. The update also establishes a maiden 29.4Mt Indicated resource, while the current MRE covers only around 10 km of Stillwater’s 32 km land position. An outstanding MRE that establishes Stillwater West as North America’s largest known [\#rhodium](https://x.com/hashtag/rhodium?src=hashtag_click) (the No. 2 ranked US critical mineral by the estimated economic impact of a potential supply disruption) deposit and the largest nickel and cobalt deposit within an active US mining district, alongside a massive 6.8 Blb chromium resource. With every contained metal increasing, the higher-grade inventory more than doubling and only around 10 km of the 32 km land position included, Stillwater West has firmly established itself as one of North America’s largest and most strategically important undeveloped polymetallic critical-mineral systems. Well, I’ve been highlighting this one to you guys since C$0.255 on this recent multi-month dip, and it just became A LOT MORE VALUABLE. Cheers, [https://criticalminerals.com/site/assets/files/4137/2026-08-27-stillwater-announces-updated-mre-final.pdf](https://criticalminerals.com/site/assets/files/4137/2026-08-27-stillwater-announces-updated-mre-final.pdf)

I check comex silver futures. 9.21k contracts 15 minutes. My conclusion is A LOT OF NAKED SHORTING and look at the price of silver now it's +0.36% on the day. That's 5% of annual silver supply (mined+recycled) in 15 minutes and the price is up on the day. I can see $150-250 or more this year or early next year.

Perhaps. Ideally, you borrow to buy physical (appreciable) assets. This might be the simplest concept. You borrow $5,000 to buy a lawnmower for your lawn care business. You charge $100 a month per property to mow lawns. You mow 5 lawns per month, so you make $500 per month. You are paying down your loan with no problems. All of a sudden, Trump pulls an FDR (or Nixon) and debases the USD (using whatever mechanism you want to imagine). Suddenly USD is worth half of what it was. Now... That lawnmower you bought for $5,000 is worth $10,000 to buy new (and maybe $7000 for you to sell yours used). Let's ignore that small arbitrage, because you need that mower to continue servicing your customers. You used to charge $100 per month per lawn. However, given USD is 50% of what it was, you now earn $200 per lawn per month - more dollars for the same service (due to massive inflation). Your 5 lawns now earn $1000 per month. See where this is going? You are still paying down your original loan with A LOT more dollars, and it cost you nothing.

Not just that, DIMM is also MASSIVELY suspect. A lot of people who are too young to remember that from 99'-02', during the height of the bubble and its pop, DIMM memory was cartelized and HUGELY overpriced. Micron sold out the "big 3" in 2002 for reduced fines, and supposedly broke the DIMM stranglehold. Except it didn't. All the logistical stakeholders, the middle and upper managers actually operating the cartel between the companies were completely unharmed, and many executives didnt even budge. So they waited. A LOT of the memory spiking costs now mirror that '99 runup, and a lot of the names in charge of the big 3, minor companies, and even DRAM and processor manifactuering were a part of that cartel chain. It is OVERWHELMINGLY likely that the DIMM cartel is not just alive, but driving part of this speculative circular financing. They're repeating the same playbool with modern improvements, and still have all the old conmections in new power seats to strangle the entire hardware market.

A handful. I just think there will be A LOT more vandalism as they proliferate. Especially once the Trump-made army of new homeless ppl realize the fortune of precious metals inside. This is all relatively new, and outcomes will depend entirely on how governments respond.  My point is just that their CLEAR, united opposition is an obstacle for these companies. Or maybe not. Govts don’t seem to care what the ppl want anymore.

I'm genuninely curious, are you also not willing to eat anything else that is imported? Like, do you drink coffee? Eat guacamole? Use tomatoes in the winter? Eat Banannas? Eat seafood? Like, we import a LOT of the food we eat so I'm a bit curious why people think we have been able to maintain quality on imported shrimp but we can't maintain quality on imported beef?

If you speak to any LL customer (ie, someone who has their app) or visit the sub, it would have saved A LOT of people a lot of money. LL has lost its way. People only buy very specific items — like pacemaker shorts, socks, etc — and most of those LL staples go on sale often.

Tech companies use AI for coding everyday (I work for one). Games are also built off coding. Now is AI vibe coding perfect? No, it still needs review. But there is A LOT of tedious stuff that comes with coding that can and should be replaced with AI. Even from the perspective of indie devs that don't always have the resources to code all the technical bits and would rather focus on the game design elements. It's like someone who paints. Most would probably rather focus on the composition, the color usage, and the message of the painting. Not on having to construct a produce a paintbrush, canvas, and paints from scratch every time they want to start a painting. We have machines for that stuff.

Patterson84

All I can say is there are A LOT of us here who did not vote for him, and don't believe or approve in anything he is doing or has done. I understand you have to be weary right now because of who our current President is. But I think once we get someone in there with half a brain, they will spend the next 4 years trying to win back yours and everyone else's trust. Which is going to be really hard. Because there are alot of people like you who will just not ever forgive, because we could just elect someone else just like him. But truthfully, couldn't that also maybe happen to you? I would Never want it to. People need to wake up and vote out everyone who is aligned with this administration. No more bending the knee. All I can say I am sorry for what our horrible leader has done and continues to do to you and your country along with almost all of our other allies. But Russia, North Korea he's on good terms with.......... Treason?

A fraction being maybe $200k-$500k. And that certainly is enough to retire on if you are older and/or have SSI or some kind of supplemental income. People retire on similar amounts all the time. All I was saying was I could make smart investments. Yes you can make money over time if you "have an edge", but the thing is; if you don't have very much to start with, it takes A LOT of time to make a significant amount. Try making 1mil off of a starting balance of 1-2 grand. You probably wouldnt be able to. And even if you could it would take much longer than you think.

Something else worth looking into, if it's a concern of yours, is the same for Wire Transfers. I left the industry about 10 years ago, but just before I left Schwab had instituted a new procedure for outgoing Wire Transfers: NOT ONLY did you have to have the appropriate paper form -- with a "wet" signature submitted, but you ALSO had to have a separate confirming form from your financial advisor (for advisory accounts). That's a pretty significant level of paranoia, but it's justified by the fact that Wire Transfers are pretty much irreversible. Preventing the crime is a LOT easier than recovering from it after the fact!

I love those two Fidelity funds; FZROX for me is up 70% in 3 years **without div reinvest**. (I spin off the div for other purposes now.) F-Zilch-X -- the same "total market" fund, but international -- I've only recently purchased, but it's up 12% in not-quite-6 months, again spinning off the dividend. Both follow a Fidelity Proprietary Index -- but this should not upset anyone; there are a LOT of "indexes" out there that exist **solely** for the purpose of having a fund track them. Fidelity is hardly a ground-breaker here.

Seems like a LOT of money is just not enough for people. *If Adam's son had a valley full of gold, he would like to have two valleys…*

Dragon-and-Phoenix

Yeah, but back then it was still just an idea, an experiment. It broke out and crashed several times over between then and now, and the recent crash wiped out a LOT of capital. Part of the 2008 crisis was caused by runaway speculative investing... which is what crypto trading pretty much is.

Sufficient_Habit5091

Sell your retarded snake oil bullshit elsewhere man. Wanna guess who the winner will be? Go ahead. There's still going to be A LOT of losers. A LOT debt has to go bad. There's no way around this. Everyone could use AI every day, congrats. Dotcom there were a shitload of poorly run companies even though everyone used the Internet. AskJeeves was going to lose, so was MySpace. No amount of printed money lit on fire was going to change that CSCO was stupidly overvalued. AI still a bubble.

With the knowledge base your displaying with this post you shouldn't be trading options at all until you learn a lot more and I mean a LOT MORE. All you will do is lose your money. Start out paper trading if you must trade and once you've successfully traded paper trades for the better part of a year than you might be ready to play with real money. Of course you won't listen so good luck to you and I hope your pockets are deep the rest of us could use the money.

I love traveling too. Mostly because I can pick and choose what I want to do and then come home. Living in a third world country is 1000% different than traveling to one. Yea, the U.S. has issues but the U.S. is not going to become Mumbai in our lifetimes. I’ll put up with A LOT before I’m moving to any third world country. And there a lot of first world countries that people romanticize about like France, Germany, the UK, that no longer match the postcards we all saw in our youth. There is a reason for the saying “The grass is sheaths greener on the other side”

MaybeLiterally

I have some, and there is a lot of great long term potential for three reasons: First, Starlink. I know a couple of people using it and they are WILDLY happy with it. Everyone who is rural gets a great opportunity to have high-speed internet as a decent price, as well as those in the city with dilapidated infrastructure getting poor or barely working internet. Expand this to the entire world and people on the ourskirts of towns, or countries with poor internet capabilities and you have an entire globe of potential customers. These next two are theoretical, but have a LOT of potential. AI is still growing, and SpaceXAI is one of the only companies with the know-how, the infrastructure, and capabilities to make frontier AI models. Using Terrafab they're going to control most of the pieces and parts that make up the AI as well. Worst case is they give up on making a frontier model and use their investments to host training and inference. Either way they're going to make money. So having a frontier model, and the compute, and the manufacturing. Lastly, if you haven't noticed, Americans are revolting against data centers. I personally think this is a fad, and we will move on to something else in time, but there is a huge risk that we will continue to be compute constrained for quite a while still. SpaceXAI is going to be launching compute into orbit where these problems don't exist. They can continue to run their own frontier model using these, or they can rent them out to other companies who need the compute but haven't been able to build them because of data-center push back. I think terrestrial compute is far superior, but if building them have too many roadblocks we might need orbital compute in the meantime. I think Starlink and Terrafab are enough to warrant the investment, and AI/Orbital Compute a great potential.

It's a Panasonic. Sitting back from the TV, it looks awesome, but yea, if you get close to the TV, the fuzziness starts to show. Back when I bought it, I used it primarily for watching downloaded SD resolution TV episodes and movies, which hid a LOT of the shitty compression artifacts from those encodes and made them look decent. Was like magic, lol. Admittedly that TV has been collecting dust in the basement for 10 years.

The American consumer is not a monolith, neither are our economic classes, and neither is the market. I feel like this post completely ignores Walmart as a business.  They’ve been VERY eager to keep up with the evolving times and IMO have been dragging. Walmart is a poor people store. They’re not in wealthy neighborhoods, they provide poor quality everything, and they’re not particularly pleasant to shop in. They were the Amazon of the 90’s and early 00’s. Now we have Amazon.  There are a LOT of alternatives, from grocers like Aldi, Erewhon or TJ’s, to diverse retailers like Costco and Amazon. Walmart is no longer the go to store for everything. They tried  desperately to compete online too and that  isn’t working.  Walmart is getting dragged because the brand fucking sucks. There’s a myriad of other things happening in the market rn (war, oil, bond rates, inflation) that make a stock like Walmart easy to beat down. 

HystericalSail

Use your credit card's teaser rate to pay down your mortgage! Er, I mean, have the treasury issue a ton of short term debt and buy back the long term debt to keep rates low. Just do a LOT of that so banks trapped in long term bonds have exit liquidity.

Not going to help you, but I've been investing in myself. Reading a LOT of books mostly on self-improvement but some that tie in with leadership/working with others and changing my mindset. I used a lot of those fancy words and jargon and "mindset" to help me land a new job. At least a lot of these interviewers seemed "impress" with my jargon LMAO. About to make a counter offer this week, using some of this jargon I learned lol

Yep, can't forget that the skyrocketing debt comes *with* the added bonus of cuts and eliminations of important federal agencies, programs, and regulation/protections. Paying a lot more for a LOT--there's the DJT business genius we were told so much about.

Sufficient_Habit5091

I'll admit if Anthropic can go genuinely cashflow positive that would be impressive and laudable. But that doesn't mean the unbelievable spend by *everyone* still isn't a bubble. Who is going to pay for all the debt to AI labs we've never heard of? "Everyone is using AI". Everyone used the internet during Dotcom. That didn't change the fact that there were A LOT of poorly run companies. No amount of wasted money and investment was going to change the fact that CSCO was overvalued. Or that AskJeeves was going to fail. Who will pay the price for all the losers of this? Are we just going to bail them out at everyone else's expense?

I buy land that I like that is priced reasonably low. I figure if I like it now, someone else will in the future.  I've sold a few, one very cheap to a good friend, who is for the past 25 years the best neighbor one could have.  But from the others I made a LOT of profit. Property is over half my portfolio.

klipsetrades

Fellow 0DTE credit spread trader here, and I trade very similar premiums to what you’re looking at. What I generally do is manage the trade based on SPX structure rather than the spread’s P/L. My exits are mostly based on the level/structure I entered against being invalidated — reclaim, failed retest, 5-min close through it, etc. I’ll use roughly 2–3x the credit as a backstop, but ideally price action gets me out first. Here’s a [walkthrough](https://www.reddit.com/r/Daytrading/s/QPrrGsdEAH) of two valid, but losing trades where I demonstrate that. And I think this is the important part that you mention — there have been plenty of days where I exited a spread, watched SPX reverse later, and the spread would’ve expired worthless anyway. [Yesterday](https://www.reddit.com/r/Daytrading/s/euxF9MtjMp) was actually one of those days — I took a red day, but my original position ultimately would’ve been fine. BUT that doesn’t mean the exit was wrong. You have to ask yourself: at that point in time, what was the risk versus the remaining benefit, and did I follow my exit rules? If the risk outweighed the reward, I made the right decision with the information I had then. You have to be comfortable with that even if the afterthought says the spread would’ve been fine. Because that one time you stay in just because “it might come back,” and it doesn’t, 0DTE can make you pay A LOT for it. So for me it’s — structure first, risk/reward second, afterthought irrelevant.

PM_ME_WHOEVER

I hold a number of stocks at just one share and I watch their charts. This generally work well and if you have decent discipline for stop loss, you can do better than market average. That said, it's a LOT less work to just dump money in low fee index funds.

The top hedge funds on Wall Street rarely beat the SP500. So that should tell you everything you need to know. You have no (very little) chance trying to beat it, why not save yourself money, stress and A LOT of time and just index.

I'm 37 and just eclipsed a decent Net Worth amount last week. My 2 closest friends at the job we all have are not in the same boat. They both day they're putting ~10% into our 401k, so thats good.. not great. We make pretty good money and they basically refuse to invest anything past the 401k. One of them is a Disney adult with his wife (I had no idea these people existed until I met him), he's a wonderful guy, truly, but he spends a LOT of money on useless shit (to me). My other friend i had a legit conversation with a couple weeks ago and he doesn't trust the stock market, at all. He does his 10% into the market but he even said he'll do that until he's 50 or so and then put the money in safe bonds or equivalent. I asked if he invested outside of his 401k and he said no, because he's afraid he'll lose money if the market goes down. I told him the market is up 8/10 years, and there's almost no point in the last 80yrs that the market is lower 10yrs later (possibly outside of like 99-09, maybe? ), but he still said no. He prefers to *invest* in watches and tangible things. He'll buy an expensive Rolex because "he'll be able to sell it in 10yrs and it'll keep it's value or maybe even go up".......

I would delineate two definitions of work. 1. Work that is required to be done in order for society to function 2. Work that produces a good or service that has value to society The former I think is going to be eaten away a LOT by AI. The latter I think AI is going to cause explosive growth for. Think of it this way, if you didn’t HAVE to worry about food, shelter, clothing, etc. and you could just build something. What would you build?

IdkAbtAllThat

Yes, CEOs hyped their products and it definitely hasn't lived up to that. I remember a year ago when they were all saying "if you think it's good now, it's gonna blow your fucking mind in 6 months". Well... It's a year later and it's like 3% better than it was a year ago. Not exactly mind blowing. That said, it's still doing A LOT, and people are getting better at utilizing it better every day. Amazon took something like 20 years to turn a profit. If you think these companies aren't going to make ridiculous amounts of money I really don't know what to tell you. Their product *is* useful. That's undeniable.

BabyWrinkles

...have you worked in large enterprise before? I laid out clearly a proposal that would cost \~$200,000/year in software licenses plus \~6 months of dev time for 3 engineers. Total Year 1 cost of \~$1mm. It would immediately save the company \~$2mm/year in contracts that could be canceled or scaled back, plus turn a cost center in to a money-making venture to the tune of a \~$4mm/year swing, plus free them from vendor lock in with Adobe to the tune of $1.5mm/year. This isn't accounting for labor savings from reduced OT costs, ability to do more work with the same staff vs. adding headcount (they'd been scaling back a creative department for years BEFORE AI, while asking everyone to do more, causing massive burnout for a LOT of folks who were on the verge of quitting.) It wasn't immediately aligned to the bonus plan for the Sr. Director & VP who needed to approve it, so it got torpedoed. I had buy in from everyone on the business side - up to and including the CMO. Didn't matter because corporate politics. This happened at a company you've heard of if you live in the United States. So yeah. If you're at a lean tech startup or an Amazon or Google or whatever? Sure. You're spot on. Go down the list of *most* large enterprises in the United States that aren't staffed by recent college grads wanting to pad their resumes before they rest 'n vest at a big behemoth? I'll wager lock-in is *very* real because any amount of engineering time or money that changes the status quo needs approvals from people who have crafted their incentive structure to keep things humming along they way they are.

Those who got shares early know what they have, this is potentially generational wealth and they aint selling... this has already been proven with the stock action not moving after that last lock-up expiration. If it drops... I'm buying MORE... a LOT more. In fact, I hop it drops... a LOT

BottleInevitable7278

The stock is moved by big money, primarily institutions. Anyone who wanted to sell would have sold last month, and I'm sure many did. Those that held were waiting for earnings and Inv.Day. Now that earnings and ID have passed, there don't seem to be any big sellers. It appears that most big money wants to hold for another year or 2 or 3 or 4. In fact, there are some that actually want to add to their long term holdings, or start new positions. But wait .. institutions already own 92% of the float (source: Fintel). And Sandisk is buying back roughly 5-6% of the float (based on 15 billion at a price of 1650/share. So where will stock come from for new buyers? Simple economics: supply and demand. Price will increase until some big money is willing to sell. In other words, this stock is going a LOT higher. Retail pumps and shorts are totally irrelevant here. Only big money matters in this arena.

The thing is he seems like a genius until the day the insurance policy kicks in. Then what's he gna do?? Naked option contracts have completely uncapped risk. With Tesla especially, there's a reason people are willing to pay him the premiums he's earning right now. If he doesn't have anything to hedge out that risk he may end up in big trouble. Like hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in minutes kind of trouble. He is also risking assignment that could occur AT ANY TIME. That means he immediately becomes OBLIGATED to hand over the cash, or the shares to cover the contracts right that second. At 100 shares per contract that can become a LOT of money very fast. Let's say he is selling 10 contracts, at a spot of $342. 10 contracts × 342 × 100 shares = $342,000. Selling options is a dangerous game, market makers buying those contracts from him are NOT the speculators he thinks he's selling to, and they are very efficient at pricing options. He needs to stop and learn the risks that he is taking on before he bankrupts your entire family.

CHUC announces it's shopping itself...up 44% today...here's why it could go A LOT HIGHER Last week the co annc'd a new CEO and that Co-Founder Ryan Stump (who represents 30% of the shares) will start shopping the co as soon as they launch the first age gated flavor disposable vape (cpl weeks). Ryan feels the company is worth between $1-2B...yes billion. That's about 15-30X from today's valuation. Mgmt and insiders have been HUGE buyers of shares lately too. Here is the [CHUC Analysis](https://www.realcreativeagency.com/chuc-best-nicotine-vape-stock/#NEWCEO)

So yeah, there are a LOT of people who are heavily invested in making this "work" and just want to push through because they can't turn around. They are going to talk like this party will never end and will act excited to keep throwing money at it. It's up to you to believe them or not, I don't.

I printed A LOT today, but not on csco

The guy selling crappy deceptive phone services doubts you’ll need better services. What a surprise. Every single telecommunications provider is restricted to one country. The first world is enormously mobile, especially in Europe. Every single telecommunications provider screws you for $10 a day for service in another country if you don’t want to use a different cell service, which itself has its own short term costs. That’s also on top of the $40-70 a month you pay for their crappy service that drops out when you leave the suburbs. The market is people who travel, which is a LOT of people. Tens to hundreds of millions. There’s a market, and jackass companies like T Mobile will disappear when their lunch gets eaten by Starlink mobile users. I for one can’t wait to have a global telecommunication service, and I’d happily pay a premium for the privilege.

I learnt a LOT by watching others make mistake based on my suggestion, I think oil is going up btw. THANK YOU FOR YOUR MATTER TO THIS ATTENTION!

Faceless_213

What a coincidence! I mentioned that only 10% of my portfolio is affected. That's because I already sold off a LOT. Included in that sell-off was just about every health care stock I owned. I follow politics enough to know the top was coming and I got out in very late 2024 or early 2025 lol. I sold off my UNH at about $550-600 lol!

Literally trying to make them money, I just told a guy I made around 4K in 8/7 which I only sold because of expiration and the guy treated it like Pennies lol, there is a LOT of money to be made with $htz

Hospitals are cooked. A bunch are about to be sized by local governments for compliance villas violations. Calls on BCBS ALLIANCE and UHG. THEY PASSED THEIR AUDITS. A LOT FAILED MINE.

What druglord boats? We never got any confirmation or released proof, but leaks from internal reports aren't great bud, why do you think they stopped? Plus latest data shows that those strikes had no noticeable impact on drug smuggling but sure did cost a LOT, kinda like it was all for show, do you think the WWE is real too?

FilthyCasual2k17

Ironically if they acted in time, this could have happened. They baited the people to revolt, waited until Iran murdered A LOT of people to use it as an excuse to invade, and then just bungled the whole thing. Apparentrly the reason why they had to wait is because they re-routed ships to Venezuela so it took them weeks to resuply and get back. It's just all a hilarious example of the kind of unapreciated things experienced military leaders do during peace time, and why random civilizans should listen to them when it comes to these kind of decisions. The whole war should have never happened, but his incompetence just makes it glaring to everyone what someone in his place who was as evil and actually competent could acomplish, and it's a giant red flag for everyone and the whole world needs to depower that office so it doesn't happen in the future.

AI is not that great as it currently stands. you might be able to get an agent to actually sound like a person for a few minutes but i genuinely have no idea how a company could begin to probe that they actually created a secure ai that wont hallucinate and bug out the second you gave someone maliciously try to prompt inject it or actually mess with it in any kind of way. Its irresponsible for companies to even try implementing it internally in its current state for actually trying to automate tasks. i wish people wouldn't have such a dogma about it, it could be really nice for artists as a tool for detailing strands of hair, filling out trees with leaves, but people hear that someone used ai and act like its chugging half a lake to do a single task. It has a LOT if ways it needs to improve before it will actually be worth the hype, but its also going to be pretty hard for people to innovate or improve it if there isn't any feedback on how people are trying to use it.

A GLASS PARKING LOT. You are a creative dude

I'd probably go with alpaca, I'm not sure if there were any better options when I looked around. If I were to do it today I'd look into something like hyperliquid or other crypto / perps based thing. They have APIs, the order book is public, and you have a LOT more freedom and developer tooling, but I also work with distributed systems and have a lot of experience with this kind of shit from my actual job so maybe it's not the best place to start for a beginner. You *kinda* have to be into this stuff for the love of the game / enjoy the journey though, it takes a lot of work. Maybe you can vibe-code something quicker nowadays though.

https://www.babypips.com/learn/forex/kindergarten Going from kindergarten to finish. This is primarily forex which is currency exchange but if you take that out. It teaches you A-LOT about the stock market and day trading. After years of trading, you start to realize that every year repeats itself. When it comes to events, reports, etc. the only thing difference is the president and what politics does to influence the market. Through this knowledge, experience, I have built an understanding of what to expect and not expect of the market. I built a system in TradingView through Claude, and with the advice of ChatGPT that helps give judgement and execution at 90%. I only say that because 10% I leave to variables out of that control/rule and what I want to do based on the environment/regime we are in. The first thing I would tell anyone besides all of this, is to learn GAMMA. Gamma by design is what are the levels of the market. If you do not know gamma. You are guessing, or even worse going blind. Learn gamma, read what I have said, and then maybe, you can do better.

Technicals work great for me. But to actually get to the point to where you understand them well enough to use them, it takes a LOT of chart watching. Let me know if you'd like me to have a look at a few.

Depreciation is 6bn this quarter, cash flow low, Zuck can't explain how they'll make money besides "renting out compute", a LOT of capex on build outs, the models don't compete with frontier or even open source models atm.

AndItsThetaAgain

Another thing that doesn’t get mentioned is the number of m*rder / su*cides when men came home and couldn’t face telling their family they had lost everything including the house. It really was just a LOT of men going home and offing their entire families rather than rebuild. Please for the love of all things, don’t do that.

Like the forward P/E on this thing is 5. Revenue is largely locked in via backlogs and whatever, earnings can be deduced. So the E part in P/E won't change much. For the forward P/E to make sense I then expect the P (price) to slowly drift lower. This is a contrived argument I guess but still. If they could spend the cash to improve the value they would not do buybacks (and they plan to spend A LOT on buybacks per their earnings call)? And improving capacity will further hurt their margin (which is really fucking high at the moment). I think the company will be around for a long time, but it doesn't look like an x10 or x5 company by now.

Ppl forget that no squeeze just went vertical immediately, look at OPEN which took a whole month, even fake meat took a few days. HTZ has a LOT more room to run next week

SteakEater137

Oil up 1.3% Oil companies like CVX and SHEL down 1% even though they crushed earnings and had blowout revenue MAKES A LOT OF SENSE REALLY.

IamScottGable

It's not, it's just like the economy before the housing bubble burst, we eating good and stacking paper but a LOT of that paper being moved around is fake. Cybertrucks sold to SpaceX, Microsoft biggest AI client is openAI, etc, etc

Jeff and Sanjay also wrote leveldb. It’s used in chrome, android and chromeos. Wouldn’t surprise me if there are other tech they implemented used industry wide. They did A LOT.

Former Treasury Secretary and Fed Chair Janet Yellen said the US labor market is functioning well and no longer appears hot enough to fuel inflation. She added she is surprised the Middle East conflict and higher oil prices have had such a limited economic impact. GEE WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IF THERE IS ENOUGH LEVERAGE THAT WE CAN CRASH THE PRICE INSTANTLY JUST AS WE CAN PUMP IT AND WE HAD A LOT OF TACOS ON THE WAY AND PEOPLE/COMPANIES WILL BE BUYING GAS/DIESEL ANYWAY REGARDLESS OF THE PRICE BECAUSE WE ARE PRETTY MUCH DEPENDENT ON MOBILITY seriously, americans where do you keep getting those geniuses at such high positions???

Mrguy4771

That covid dip barely even noticeable. So many people sold A LOT of what they had. "The world will never be the same".

What happened to MU and how it was moving last couple of weeks. it was moving like a LOT now its slow af

Competitive_Race_388

Honestly based on the fact that Monday and Tuesday both opened with 1.5m+ of buy volume, and RSI stayed 70-80+ ALL day both days, I wouldn’t be surprised if it keeps running today. That’s a LOT of momentum.

Your mistake is believing a rules based world is something that just happens by default - it's the opposite, greed and corruption and default and you need to spend a LOT of effort to make sure the rules are followed. Read about the world wars or even the soviet union, it was intelligent people being ignored by greedy people.
