You had me until “Sell only when you have something urgent to pay for”. I don’t believe the money you’re investing should be the same money with which you pay your bills. The difference is short term vs long term. If you need to pay a bill and your investment has lost value, you could potentially lose money. I would rather buy and sell from a Roth where I don’t have to pay taxes on gains until it is withdrawn, after retirement. I bought RIVN at $14.19 and a couple weeks later, sold half of my position at $18.29. It’s back down around $16. If I traded like and needed to “pay a bill”, selling it at $16 would be a loss.
Once it goes I’ll buy a Rivian with my RIVN.
For those chasing SPCX puts next week, remember RIVN ran up 70% over 5 straight weeks after IPO and they dont have this level of retard strength behind it.
I don't own a Rivian. The hype was intense and public sentiment for EVs was positive. RIVN was seen as a better run, better product company than TSLA, but needed a little more time. I got sucked in, but waited about a week after IPO, thinking the dip was over. It was not.
Last time I seen this much hype around an IPO was RIVN... RIVN... ... ...
Lost $40 on RIVN this morning, gotta dine on them tears today
Fuck it man I'm just gonna full port RIVN leaps or some shit Feels retarded enough to work
Remember RIVN debuted at $100 USD per share and collapsed to $8 over the course of a year (still holding...)
SPCX is the next RIVN. Today is the market top. Im holding fists full of shorts and my balls are sweaty af. Let's go.
RIVN- California deal California’s Department of Transportation has recently ordered 524 additional Rivian vehicles, public procurement records show
Remember when RIVN IPO'd and shot up to like $200 the first few days of trading then crashed over the following weeks to it's current lows. That's gonna be me with SPCX. Catching the lows 😎
RIVN paid for my drinking habit through my divorce (no joke) and it’s the stock I learned to swing trade. Slept on as fuck
RKLB was ripping after hours. I have ASTS, a few LUNR and RDW. I tell yah, also have a lot of other flying stocks; I have thousands of shares in ACHR and JOBY for eVOTLs. Also have a boatload of RIVN. I made a lot on TSLA and started chasing some of these new product companies.
RIVN is holding up at least
!BANBET I went all in on RIVN at 3:55 yesterday, port is now 98% RIVN. Here's hoping.
So Calls on TSLA, RIVN and LCID?
When buying individual stocks, your aim is to beat the market (SP500). Or otherise, if you can't beat the index, you should just be buying it. Value stocks typically don't beat the market, and at best pace it. It's your high growth companies that carry the index up. You are looking at growth as percentages, not as nominal numbers. So you can have "high growth" in megacaps all the way down to small caps. Most consistent pattern I have seen for long term beating the index is consistent top and bottom line growth. Take MSFT for example. If you look back at past 10 years, have increased top and bottom line in each and every year. Two other stocks that I've owned long term that almost pass that test are AMZN and MA. But a little slip up is okay, as long as it's not a pattern (AMZN bad investment in RIVN and MA was impacted by the pandemic). Now to be able to perform this well, companies typically need a moat of some sort. So aside from just the financial numbers, you want know about how the business operates, what advantages it has over others, can it retain this advantage, and what the risks. There is no such thing as a "value" stock. Stocks that have lower finanical metrics typically are lower across the board in all metrics. Would you invest in a company that is growing revenue at 30-40% that has 1/4 the size of revenue and higher margin versus a company that has flat revenue, and can only squeeze more profit by efficiency gains? One of them has a lot more potential than the other. And one of them matches the average profile of the index - in which case you're safer buying the index.
If I keep options running on this account the only thing I'm really interested in is buying LEAPs on longshots I really like. CRSP, DNA, ACHR, RIVN and a couple others. Farming some premiums with the theta gang is also very tempting.
Just bought another 250 shares of RIVN. My account is now 98% Rivn and a bunch of calls that are red. Fuck it.
RIVN is forever in that $10-20 range.
RIVN crashing today harder than the broader market despite releasing their lower cost product today
On the plus side I bought back my RIVN CC's at a decent profit. On the negative side I'm still holding RIVN which is 80% of my port.
RIVN is an interesting one. I looked at them even as a potential job opportunity as I have a contact there. They definitely have positive tailwinds behind them and a strong product offering. Haven't done a deep dive so no stock opinion. I don't really deal in energy stocks so no comment there. I'm also not big into LLY at all. Strong company, but I've never even researched the company.
Some suggestions: RIVN. I bought the dip from two weeks ago and I'm very happy about that. You've got multiple big tailwinds; they are going to turn profitable in a few Q, Amazon needs new vans for their delivery fleet (this is huge and under-reported), the oil shock is going to have people buying more electrics, and they just released the new R2. Oil/energy stocks. Especially Canadian oil sands. SU, CVE. Two new NatGas generator companies IPOing last week and this week; INIO and EROC. Energy prices are not going down and rate payers/voters are going to be even more pissed about electricity prices in the near future. We have a huge NatGas boom because NatGas is a byproduct of oil extraction. INIO is the old and boring. EROC is the new and interesting. I know you are big into LLY. What's your current narrative there? Seems pretty speculative at this price.
Rivian shares, RIVN June 12 $17 calls, and RIVN June 18 $20 calls
Sold RIVN CC early last week for $195. Bought them back Friday for $145. Sold them again today for $190. Rinse and repeat. ItAintMuchButItsHonestWork.jpg
I think the R2 just needs to become a popular niche EV for RIVN to succeed. The price point opens up far more potential sales than the R1S could generate. I see R2 success as a coin flip and if it succeeds the stock is significantly underpriced. I took a recent gamble on 5x or $0. I guess it all just depends on what your outlook is on the odds of R2 success?
It’s likely make or break for Rivian over the next year. R2 succeeds and the stock may 5x. It fails and RIVN may be worthless. MRLN is less than $1b market cap and only company that can retrofit autonomous AI take off to touchdown piloting on any plane in existence. If it works then MRLN will skyrocket.
Bought my RIVN covered calls back end of day Friday at a profit. Looks like I'll be selling them again today if things keep going up. Good times.

30% of the SPCX float shares were reserved for retail. Retail just got wiped out by the software psych and biggest single-day drop since October 10th of last year; the day that started a multi-month period of churn, stagnation, and loss. Favorites like DRAM, MU, and ASTS just took a -20% correction and the greater indexes just took the first step towards being a bear market. The high volatility stocks are already in a bear market. Crypto just had it's worst week in years. BTC just hit 60K and fear just hit the market. It's going to 55, maybe 45. MSTR may have just popped a second tech bubble. Stocks with serious positive catalysts just dumped -15% in a single day. MU has earnings in 3 weeks. ASTS has multiple SpaceX launches THIS MONTH. RIVN has unannounced orders from Amazon for a new van fleet, an unrealized oil crisis, and it about to hit profitability in a few quarters. Nothing was spared. What looked like a orderly rotation earlier in the week just turned into a panicked selloff. Something just broke. Nobody could buy SpaceX on the fundamentals. The only hope Elon had was hype and market momentum, but that's dead now. I would not be surprised if the IPO was called off.
People are definitely sleeping on RIVN simply cause of how looooong it has taken to get here. People forget how long TSLA was unprofitable.
Solar dying today was weird. ENPH down too. Keep an eye on two NatGas gen companies who IPOed this week and last week; INIO and EROC. Electricity isn't going to get cheaper, but NatGas is. Also, I hope you are buying RIVN.

I'm talking about the sympathy trade. With RIVN IPO sentiment (maybe a bit temporarily) became "EV's are the future" and money flowed into Tesla, Lucid, Nio, Flasker etc. Narrative wasn't exactly "buy Rivian" , more like "buy the future", if it does pump like I think prices could peak around day 3-4 post ipo or even before, so those are my targets to get out. If all of this is wrong oh well, guess i'm becoming a long term investor.

Liquidity is going to flow in sectorwide, it's like the TSLA and RIVN situation. People will finally give a shit about space and when spaceX goes flying it's gonna violently drag up with it the small caps
I sold RIVN covered calls a couple days ago, I have EOM calls for July that are hopeful, and otherwise I'm cash and bonds. Feeling pretty ok.
thinking puts on RIVN post delivery day next week. RSI has been banging off of overbought lately and nothing has really changed since the last blowout. Thoughts?
This is such a fascinating IPO. I was curious about other IPOs that had any smidgen of legit hype and craze behind it and there aren't many. |IPO (Ticker)|Date|IPO Price|Day 1 Open (% from IPO)|Day 1 Close (% from IPO)|Day 1 Intraday High| |:-|:-|:-|:-|:-|:-| |Reddit (RDDT)|Mar-24|$34|$47 (+38%)|$50.44 (+48%)|$57.80 (+70%)| |Rivian (RIVN)|Nov-21|$78|$106.75 (+37%)|$100.73 (+29%)|\~+53% intraday| |Snowflake (SNOW)|Sep-20|$120|$245 (+104%)|$253.93 (+112%)|\~$319| |ARM (ARM)|Sep-23|$51|\~$56 - 57|$63.59 (+25%)|Solid gains| |Figma (FIG)|Jul-25|$33|\~$85 (+157%)|$115.50 (+250%)|Higher next day (\~$143 in some reports)| |Circle (CRCL)|Jun-25|$31|\~$69 (+123%)|$83.23 (+168%)|Very strong| SPCX, though, is on a whole other level. This thing is priced, initially, within an "everything works" type setup. And that's if everything works for about 10 years straight to justify the price at offering. There are going to be some serious peaks and valleys on this one and people really need to be mindful of the timing of things (lockup dates, etc.). For those degens participating in this circus; what's your entry point capped at? My thoughts on expectations or ranges of possibilities: Bear/Flat Launch: Price between $90 - $120. Likely/Nothing Crazy: $140 - $180 Bonkers: $200+ (I think we'll see a good bit of this on Day 1 before finding its floor) So much rests on so much going right. Then you have the Whacky Uncle Musk factor. This thing could absolutely go crazy for better or worse - a lot of people are going to either make or lose a lot of money once the rug gets pulled. Good luck to all getting in the muck to trade or hold for any length of time.

Well my September RIVN 20CC I sold arn't looking too safe. \#ThetaGang4Lyfe
Surprised that AMD and RIVN are keeping my account green today.
since when does RIVN only go up now?
RIVN flying pre June event. 😎
Thanks to the two wsbers who said RIVN yesterday. That’s all I needed to go in on calls
anyone else in RIVN? 10 straight green days since they tried to shake everyone out of shares a couple weeks ago
Calls on RIVN are PRINTING 🖨️
RIVN is the flight to safety apparently
My only position thats not red today is RIVN. That piece of shit somehow survived.
Why do RIVN calls always tank EOD?
Were there any major lawsuits that the underwriters of RIVN had to pay after it went down 80% after IPO? I highly doubt they’ll be in any danger when SPCX goes down
RIVN go brrrrrr since $12...R2 delivering this week
RIVN breaks 17.80 it’s going 20. June 9 event good catalyst
RIVN breaks 17.80 it’s going 20. June 9 event good catalyst
Something green and Call manageable on the community list. Like RIVN, NVTS, POET. HPE just ripped so just monitor that one.
ASTS, believe it or not. Yes, the Blue Origin disaster hurt them in the long term, but there are two SpaceX satellite launches in June, which should send the stock up +20% or more. Brain-dead easy play. The only problem is the risk of another rocket exploding or a deployment failure. It's still risky, but probably worth it. INTU, RIVN, KLAR
RIVN short squeeze beginning to run!
I s0ld RIVN covered calls way too early. Oh well...profit is profit or whatever they say.
Another AI day coming for RIVN... That will boost it nicely!
My fighter pack: SMCI RGTI RIVN
this is the best couples weeks for RIVN like ever...
RIVN just announced it's an AI rocket company. Just bought some 18JUN $17 calls. Let's see if this thing runs after the R2 numbers come out on 9/10 June
I should not have sold RIVN covered calls last week.
more important than all of this, the sentiment is high. RIVN is gaining traction in upper middle class circles. It's the car people want to have. R2 is gonna be big.
I’ve got quite a ridiculous lineup. Fucked or no? UNH $320 Put — 2 contracts, exp 7/17/26 QQQ $750 Call — 1 contract, exp 6/5/26 RIVN $14 Put — 7 contracts, exp 7/17/26 WMT $140 Call — 4 contracts, exp 9/18/26
RIVN is buy nowadays. No longer in that category. Certainly not one to buy at IPO tho….all hype
Look at what happened to RIVN. People still holding bags 5 years later.
Looking at RIVN, might be something there
No idea but it felt good realizing a big chunk of profits today. If it continues to go up, I’ll cheer for the other RIVN investors, if it goes down I’ll buy again and repeat the process. Win win
ACCORDING TO GEMINI A.I. The "Day-One" Price Spike Risk Retail investors buying on the open market rarely get the official IPO price. Instead, they buy hours later after institutional banks push the price up. * **The Pattern**: The stock opens at a massive premium, peaks within the first 90 minutes, and then crashes as early insiders take profits. * **Historical Example**: **Rivian Automotive (RIVN)** went public in 2021 at $78. It skyrocketed to $172 within days due to retail FOMO (fear of missing out). Within a year, the stock crashed over 85% as the hype faded and manufacturing realities set in. 📉 Post-IPO Underperformance (The 5-Year Reality) Academic studies by IPO experts like Professor Jay Ritter show that over a five-year horizon, the average IPO significantly underperforms the broader S&P 500 index. * **The Cause**: Companies go public when their private valuation is at an absolute peak. * **Historical Example**: **Uber (UBER)** and **Lyft (LYFT)** both went public in 2019 amid massive hype. Lyft fell below its IPO price immediately and has never recovered. Uber took nearly five years of volatile trading just to break even and sustain a profit. 🔒 The Lockup Expiration Crash Company insiders and early venture capital investors are legally banned from selling their shares for the first **90 to 180 days** after an IPO. * **The Risk**: The day this "lockup period" expires, millions of shares flood the market at once. This sudden surge in selling pressure almost always triggers a sharp drop in the stock price. * **Historical Example**: **Facebook (Meta)** plummeted by over 50% in the months following its 2012 IPO as its lockup periods expired and insiders dumped shares. 🤖 The Conglomerate & Governance Risk Because Elon Musk's filing blends **SpaceX (aerospace)**, **Starlink (telecom)**, and **xAI (artificial intelligence)** into one ticker (SPCX), the company faces unique structural risks: * **Capital Burn**: Over 78% of the IPO funds are designated for AI infrastructure. Building AI data centers requires billions of dollars in upfront cash with no guarantee of immediate revenue. * **Key-Man Risk**: The entire valuation rests heavily on Elon Musk. If he steps away, faces legal trouble, or shifts his focus to another venture, the stock price could collapse instantly.
Thanks! Any DD for RIVN?
RIVN, my baby! I'll stop talking shit about you now
My port was 80% RIVN going into today. It's now down to 50% and now debating selling covered calls in case this reverses but really wondering if it's just going to keep going up.
Imagine RIVN back at like $70
Too many sleep on $RIVN
I will buy a RIVN if it goes to $1T mcap
Of course I sold RIVN calls yesterday and it’s pumping for no reason
