Imagine SPY pumps +3% today
TIL there’s 500 companies inside the SPY and 20 of those stocks are 50% of it’s weight 😂🤡
So, US 100 tech is up 100 points, why SPY is down?
We are by no definition mooning. I see a bounce on SPY from 748.2 to 749.38 and now it's dropping again.
MU pumping in premarket is usually a bullish indicator, hopefully today is +2% on SPY

’d recommend investing that money into a brokerage account of your choice. Depending on your risk tolerance, you could consider sector ETFs like XLF, XLK, or XLV, or gain exposure to broader markets through QQQ (Nasdaq) or SPY (S&P 500). Since SPY trades at a higher share price, SPYG — often called the “poor man’s SPY” — is a solid growth-oriented alternative if you’re working with a smaller amount, like $2,000. If you’d prefer a more conservative approach, you could allocate some of the funds to a money market account instead. Another option worth exploring is setting up a trading bot — linked to your brokerage account through whichever AI platform you prefer — and starting small, with just a couple hundred dollars, to see how it performs. This is only my approach! There are more than 3 ways to skin a cat!
I put my last 200 dollars into zero DTE SPY puts on the October 10 flash crash. After holding for about 30 min I panicked and switched all the puts to calls. Literally 6 mins later 🥭 threatened 200% tariffs on china and SPY tanked 3% in 20 mins. My 200 dollars of puts would’ve have been worth 23,000 dollars but instead I had switched them to O DTE calls that went straight to zero. Still traumatizes me to this day
Bro, so the KOSPI is like our SPY? And that shit just had a 6% upward movement from like 2-3 hours ago to now? That shit normal? If SPY went up 6% that shit would be wild as hell.
I agree, but I'm not sure we'd be so different if SPY was down 22% in a month
I also tested a managed account for a while. It did okay, but when I compared it with SPY, the difference made me question the extra fees. For me, a managed portfolio should either beat SPY over several years or protect my money better during market drops. Otherwise, I did stick with SPY.
SPY should dictate KOSPI, not the other way around
Huff Huff. I'm not even a ber but goddam that is copium. The razors edge that SPY has to run to win this tomorrow is gonna be tough. War, Oil, drawdown, CPI, etc. Godspeed retard. Godspeed.
you asked a question. Do you not realize the drop in SPY last year from end of February to Liberation day lows was more than 20%? A little over a month. Or are you like Taco and confused about how percentages work?
is SPY was up as much as KOSPI was over the past year, it would be trading at 1350

Too bad I closed my SPY puts yesterday
I think comparing every portfolio to SPY after one good year is a little unfair. SPY is a tough benchmark because it’s cheap, simple, and hard to beat. A managed portfolio doesn’t necessarily need to beat SPY every year, but it needs to justify why it exists. Lower risk, better diversification, tax management, or helping people stay invested during crashes can have real value. But if it’s just a more expensive version of SPY, then I don’t really see the point. The real test comes when the market gets ugly.
690 on QQQ and 735 on SPY before the CPI data is released will be hilarious.
Going to praise to allah I get to enter calls with SPY at 745 or below
What if, SPY is just a game that was being played by a random dude in other universe? He currently has 7460 tokens to loose. KOPSI is level 3 high simulation game
Dude fuck overnight and other country markets. Kospi goes down because SPY went down, so SPY goes down again tomorrow in response to Kospi going down. So Kospi fucking goes down because SPY went down. Fuck my life dude, what a shit time to full port into goddamn SNDK.
SPY is going to open so red tomorrow
I doubt europoors will pump today after yesterday's SPY performance
It's Soxx, and SOXX is the biggest chunk of SPY.
So basically the Kopsi is SPY now?
735 on SPY before the CPI data is released would be awesome. Would open a fair chance for either a circuit breaker or a flat by open scenario.
Kospi will liquidate SPY holders as well due to the magic of globalization and financial contagion.

Umm...there's 22,000 940 Calls with open interest tomorrow on SPY. 940 CALLS. Not 740. I shit you not. https://optioncharts.io/options/SPY/open-interest?expiration_dates=2026-07-14%3Aw&option_type=all&strike_range=all Did someone fat-finger 22,000 contracts with a typo here? If so, this has absolutely made my week so much more enjoyable. Lmfao...
Do you make investing decisions based on a sample size of one year? If you bought Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Index Fund (VEU) 1 year ago you would indeed have outperformed a US fund like the s&p. VEU returned 22.24% and SPY returned 20.13%. Great work. You beat the US market by excluding them. If you bought VEU in 2007 (March 26), before the great recession (when it was first made), you would be up 60.91% If you bought SPY on the same date, you'd have returned 440%.
Banks are gonna slay it. CPI will come in cooked under 3.9%. Warsh will say he is watching. SPY up 2% by lunch.
Either SPY pumps tomorrow or I get pumped but there will definitely be a pumping of sorts.
Sssssooooo, SPY 690 Sept puts then, thx
Keep buying those puts on SPY. You’ll find your way to the Wendy’s dumpster
Congrats ya’ zombie. Keep buying those puts. You’ll make millions buying them on SPY. 🤦♂️🫵🤡
Someone here yesterday figured that if SPY goes down UNH goes up, but they still miss the moves because they both happen together.
Get your ass back down SPY
>It has me wondering how people judge managed portfolios. Is underperforming SPY automatically a failure? Yes. >Or do diversification, risk, and how the portfolio performs in different market conditions matter more over the long term? They do matter, but typically for index funds, the diversification/risk are better than actively managed portfolios. That's *why* a managed portfolio having a lower performance than SPY is an automatic failure. An actively managed portfolio should only be considered if the returns (after accounting for fees) are enough higher than the returns would have been in a low-cost index fund.
Divide the cost of one QQQ OR SPY share into otm calls everyday and you will out perform the spy it’s THAT ez now retire and suck my cawk for telling you the secret to life’s riches
if Kospi can -/+ 10% a day, so can SPY
I bought a call expiring Thursday for SPY, am I cooked?
Are semis back in favor? SPY down .2% AH and SOXX green?

!banbet SPY "never gets above 770" while 🥭 is alive
$SPY $QQQ $SMH $XLK big ER time. There are 12000-20000 target attacks on Iran, market digest and move higher. By strong earnings Few more even 1000 times more , does it make difference to market ? Big earnings drive index high.
Don’t look up the top holdings of SPY right now 🤫
Managing your own portfolio allows you to customize the risks your exposed to, at what levels and by what means. Not everyones goals are the same, if you want a 1:1 market exposure to SPY go ahead but someone us want less beta and more yield, or larger amount of risk for higher gain etc.
SPY still at ATH despite this
Tomorrow: Soft CPI + "talks going well" = SPY -2% Plan accordingly.
SPY is 4% down from ATH let’s all panic guys!
Is SPY getting ready to dump again...
Overnight 10-15% jump in oil is possible if this thing doesn't calm down by overnight today. SPY will be at 735 before CPI even comes into picture tomorrow a.m. LMAO
Everything is still to expensive, even if sectors falls, the SPY nearly moves.
TACO Tuesday tomorrow morning ? SPY should go back to $760 by lunchtime.
I bought in amzn in early 2023 at <$100 basis. It has performed well for me, but was at a 50% discount from mid 2021. You have a valid point on under performing SPY on the 5 year.
My first sentence was serious, because that is how the recent intraday charts look. The rest of the comment was a jab at all the recent comments and posts about how MMs control the entire market, even ETFs like SPY & QQQ, which derive their price point & valuation based on the S&P or NASDAQ 100. I think it highly unlikely that MMs hold such large positions In the companies that comprise the S&P or NASDAQ 100, as to be able to manipulate them.
SPY to 555 tomorrow. (Wtf do I know)
> Is underperforming SPY automatically a failure? Or do diversification, risk, and how the portfolio performs in different market conditions matter more over the long term? Your second question/statement is the correct one. And some of those factors (especially risk) hinge on what age you are; if you're 30, you can and should have a greater appetite for risk than if you're 60. I think Vanguard managed funds are the way to go--most of them have lower expense ratios than SPY--and are able to more intelligently react to market indicators, rather than simply replicate the S&P 500 by percentage. Underperforming SPY is not a failure, especially if your managed fund is able to hedge against being overleveraged within a particular market sector (for example, say, anything to do with AI datacenter build out, etc).

Lot of regard bols bought calls today thinking this is over. The bol conoloscopy is just getting started. SPY opens at 730 tomorrow LMAO.
Essentially there is only 2 asset classes that have outperformed debasement plus inflation over last 15 years, crypto and QQQ & SPY (hard assets and tech equity). Only QQQ and Crypto comfortably clear this hurdle rate. Hold.

inb4 SPY moves in a ten cent range for the entire day
Circling back to [$SPY](https://aimytrade.io/ticker/spy?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=comment&utm_campaign=SmallStreetBets&utm_term=SPY&utm_content=template_1783975972422_dzc5q5). The volatility around it is really the whole story.
I added $751 SPY puts on my watchlist when it was $0.56, but didn’t buy any 😁
The last sentence is the sentiment. I guess I'm worried I'm holding onto single stocks that could lose value in 10 to 20 years (especially TSLA) when i could just have cashed out half of my stocks to reinvest into more long-term holds like SPY or VOO. Or does the capital gains tax just negate that in general?
USO at 140 tomorrow means SPY opens at 720 LMAO
The actual data on this is the SPIVA scorecard, not just some vague stat, 79% of active large cap funds underperformed the S&P in 2025 alone and about 92% failed over the last 20 years, so trailing SPY by 4 points in one year isn't really news. Honestly, I wouldn't even look at raw return here, I'd want the Sharpe ratio, if the managed account took on less risk for almost the same gain it did its job even though the number on paper looks worse. Ask for that comparison across a full cycle with at least one real drawdown in it, not just a good year for both sides.
SPY and chill has been the only right move this year LOL
