How much would SPY drop if Apple crashes?
People say just buy SPY and relax for the next 20 years as if most of our jobs will be around that long. We need money quickly before AI replaces us in a few years.

Thanks for your submission! r/WallStreetBets is ultimately a community about making money through trading, and our conversations should shift around that. Politics are fundamentally intertwined with making money, and political actions almost always have an impact on financial markets. Still, we need to make sure that when we have these discussions, we're explicitly calling out the financial impacts of the politics we're discussing. Otherwise, the conversation can very easily veer off into flamewars and boring, unproductive, discussion. Here's an example of a political comment that doesn't offer any value: * "I hate this new green policy from the Biden administration. What a fucking idiot" Now compare it to this: * "I hate this new green policy from the Biden administration. It threatens the profit margins of oil companies because they will need to expand their OpEx. I have calls on Shell that are going to get decimated at open." The latter is significantly more interesting and offers a great jumping point into market related discussion. Put succinctly: If you choose to start or engage in arguments about libtards or Nazis instead of making fun of their bad SPY long then you're in the wrong place and we'll show you the door.

LOL what SPY basically back at the price it was 2-3 hours into the open on Friday
You can tell whos holding bags here. They celebrating SPY being up .03% 😂😭
SPY up .3% WSB "futes rippin"
He literally said they were working on a new peace deal last Friday- SPY briefly went up like 2 points then continued dumping. The announcements just don’t hit anymore, he’s cried wolf too many times. I do think we’ll see a slight bounce back due to AAPL though and then probably continue with the dumping later in the week
SPY is going to have the most glorious pump day tomorrow, then finish the week at at 730
They are still regardless falling we can talk about SPY how fucked they are going to get. Thing is that when AI falls down, everyone is falling down even they are not related. That is because its the same buyers who may have overleveraged, Margined, or institutions derisking and using yall as an exit liquidity. Its simple math how a market can crash

When Trump won 2024 elections, SPY pumped 4% in the next 2 days Moral dilemma for you all for this week
Buy SPY before it rips. It’s unbeatable
Damn, I'm glad the second Great Depression is over! SPY 800 here we come, bers back off
There is probably going to be a small recovery into monday, but it isnt going to retain the same strength as the previous recovery of SOXL into the 100s zone. SP500 will provide less downside than NASDAQ/TECH vs Fridays close. Buy SPY calls. NASDAQ sell calls. AI will have its recovery, but people arent ready to realize that yet. Significant tech stock earnings will be an upcoming danger zone.
No That said, I could do simply covered calls on SPY/QQQ and make enough to do this for a living But I enjoy my job and enjoy the perks of having a w2 income To answer the rest of your questions: there is no average. It varies. Roughly 1.5% of the portfolio per month the last year. How long it took? It’s more about how much your starting capital is, rather than experience How many hours per week? Like…. 4 hours per week lol.
I would look at QQQM, SOXX, and then just the market indexes like SPY or VOO
Calls for $760 SPY tomorrow. $745 into the rest of the week for puts.
My hedge this week will be SPY -10% puts weekly if I buy calls
God candle monday, SPY +2.5%
Robinhood lets you trade SPXW at all hours except from 9:25 to 9:30 before market opens. Basically SPY but 10x the price.
Consumer staples and utilities are certainly the best-known defensive sectors but they still crater when people get more frugal in a recession. Just not as much as everything else. And you exchange better returns during the boom for that safety. So in the end it doesn’t differ that much from just buying SPY with deep OTM put protection. I’m a fairly avid shipping and oil investor and I’ve had a good year. But I pay for it in other years. I made money in 2022 when everyone lost their shirts, and I’m up 35% this year. But I lagged the market a lot while tech was screaming higher in 2023-24. There are no simple answers. I invest in commodities for diversification because half of my net worth is vested equity in my unicorn fintech startup employer, and as long as tech continues to do well I am set. This year has been magical because both sides have been gangbusters, but I have to watch macro like a hawk so I can dump out of shipping and oil before a global recession crushes them to powder.
I got curious about exactly this and backtested it on ~330 large, profitable companies (20B+ market cap, positive free cash flow, decent returns on capital), Oct 2017 to Oct 2026. Two ways to "buy the dip": 1. Buy the first day a stock is 25%+ off its high and under its 200-day average. 2. Wait for some sign of a bottom first (e.g. a high-volume flush day, then price takes out that day's high). Results, roughly: - Over the next 60 trading days both beat SPY by a similar amount (about +3.6 to +3.7 points on average). Waiting didn't make you more money. - Waiting did make the entry better timed: the "wait for a bottom" entries had no lower low in the next two weeks ~66% of the time vs ~42% for buying on day one. - Big caveat: these are today's survivors. A random day in the same stocks beat SPY by ~2 points over 60 days, so a lot of the "edge" is just survivorship. So I'd agree with the top comment: check whether estimates fell with the price, size it so you can keep adding, and don't expect timing tricks to beat the index on their own. Not advice.
SPY hasn't corrected. Formal definition of correction is -10% from ATH. QQQ on the other hand has corrected due to dumping of tech stocks.
Oh for sure, especially on a stock vs. index ETF, but would be fun to think about. I think the biggest 1-day gains I can remember seeing were about 200x. I think there've been one or two times I can remember when there was a potential for 1000x+ returns on a one day play - probably SPY far enough OTM 1DTE calls on days when it exploded up.
SPY down 1% last month, 5d. Up on 6m, YTD.
Anyone also have SPY calls for Monday so I don’t feel as bad if they lose money? 😅
Can’t wait for my $5k GOP Takes House & Senate check. Still waiting for my $5k DOGE check and $2k tariff check though. Gonna spend them all on very safe and secure SPY FDs.
People like to ignore nuance with dumbass stats like post midterm pumps *for most presidents*. All these delusional people ignore the fact that after Trumps last midterms SPY dropped 15% in 2 months until January where it bottomed. But no, that doesn’t fit the clown perma bull narrative. Also just ignore the fact that he’s repeatedly said he’s going to bomb Iran right after the midterms are done. I’m sure it will work out well.
I've got your next strategy bro. I call it the "buy and hold." Basically, you're gonna buy SPY and then hold until retirement.
I do SPY 1-2$ OTM I just never get the correct movement. Friday was the first day in forever where I got something other than sideway movement
I prefer to buy SPY on the way up to capture broad market upswings and then buy individual stocks (specifically, UNH and AMD) when they're down. I'm pretty confident in these shares and I already intend to hold them for a very long time. It's done incredibly well for me.
Burry not only makes money during bull markets (outperforming SPY most years), he also protects himself from considerable downsides. He’s famous for the Big Short, and for his doomerism, but he’s genuinely a really great investor outside of that with a proven track record.
Roll the earnings into 0 DTE SPY options. You will either have no gains, or enough money to pay the taxes.
Not really sure why VOO and VXUS weighting is relevant to my comment or point. But VXUS since inception over the course of 15 years has about the same return as VOO over just the past 5 years. Of course holding VOO (or SPY) for that entire 15 year period easily outclasses VXUS. You're basically suggesting selling a higher performing asset, to diversify into a lower performing one - not sure I agree with that.
yeah well I've been trading a long time, you learn from your mistakes. the biggest mistake I made early on, and the mistake 99% of WSB users make, is they try to play everything. every daily move, every earning, every fed meeting. sitting and watching $SPY all day....so what are you supposed to do? wait for a trade you're at least 90%+ confident in. I haven't done a trade since the SpaceX IPO in June
The bubble is bursting; some will try to buy the dip, but the SPY will be at 450 before the end of the year.
What? You guys are still pussies? Unless we hit 5% or more on SPY or QQQ in a single day. Then is just business as usual. It ain’t no party like a circuit breaker party. The lower it goes the better it will be.

It was end of month pension and 401k flows stabilizing the drop and letting dip buyers get a toehold. If Friday hadn’t been the last business day of the month we would haave been on track for a -3% SPY day.
cause I dont try and guess company earnings or $SPY 5 seconds moves like the majority of people here lmao the most stupid way to trade
Problem with what you're saying is AI stocks are down 30, 40, 50, 60% percent YTD, while SPY, QQQ, Dow are all up YTD.
You just wait for Nvidia earnings report. Jensen will show up with the slickest leather jacket, claim AI will make us immortal. NVDA : +28% SPY : +10% QQQ : +22%
BigTech are global companies. They have a big cash flow, generating from consumers using them globally AI companies don’t need government bailouts. They can modulate their spending, don’t need government money at all. All adopt AI use; $SPY $QQQ $NVDA $MU $KLAC $TSM all go up
The bull thesis is that Trump flies a “mission accomplished” flag on the USS Gerald Ford the Wednesday after midterms and pulls out of the middle east in shame with his tail between his legs just like Bush did then SPY rallies 15%
Hynix was bonkers, but burgers pooped, bullish lean was the right play with almost all sectors having massive October, especially after dovish FOMC, and even shitcoins from IWM bouncing where they were supposed to bounce. SPY is still at ATH, nothing changed, it's just a VaR shock.
go look at some options chains for SPY,. month out 30 delta calls and it'll show u the premium * **Estimated Option Price / Premium:** Roughly **$5.00 to $8.00 per share** ($500 to $800 total per contract, since each contract represents 100 shares), depending on exact implied volatility and the specific expiration date chosen. * **Underlying SPY Reference Price:** \~$755.72 * **Target Delta:** \~0.30 with a million **Immediate Cash Premium Collected:** **$8,450 this is one month**

sorry if you already know all this, covered calls require pretty significant capital that's the catch. most people don't have any money lol you cap unlimited upside in return for premium. if market goes up but not past your strike, stays float, or goes down over the duration of the call, you just got real money where you wouldn't have done anything market crashes? you lost a little bit less than you would have otherwise holding same thing SPY VOO whatever. in your particular case rather than being all in with a lump sum which is a bad idea, if you had some called away it would be a good thing. you would have some flexibility in management
Your port is essentially an ETF made of random niche tickers no one has ever heard of and a few wallstreetbets specials. Honestly just get an index fund (VOO/SPY/QQQ) and leave it alone. You can keep yourself a little cash for risk to play with
Too many stocks. If you want to stock pick you should really only have 2-3 high conviction trades in an industry you have strong knowledge of and combined extensive research. If you want to diversify, you should be buying VOO/SPY or BRK.B shares. As far as advice goes, I'd really recommend finding videos and information sources that discuss long term investing strategies and market concepts, personally I steer people towards Plain Bagel who interestingly enough is also Canadian. Stock picking is inherently risky but diversification is a protection against 'ignorance' if done correctly (SPX500 ETFs). Wealth building is generally a boring process. My personal advice given your circumstance is to gradually move your portfolio, starting with your biggest losers, into an SPX500 etf and focus on your primary income instrument which in this instance is your job. People often forget that having a strong income is far more better of a focus than trying to make it rich in stocks or crypto.
SPY has regarded strength, idk how it hasn't fallen off more with this techpocalypse
Buy VOO or QQQ or SPY and sell all the other shit. 80% s&p500. 20% something a lil riskier
bounced hard at the end of the day. That usually bad days like this are followed by a reprieve, even more so when you see an end of day bounce. That the powers that be likely try short the hell out of oil one more time to make things look happier on Tuesday. I do think the SPY tests its 200 day MA, because as you pointed out, nothing has changed. But the markets never go straight up and down, and I think the selling takes a break Mon/Tue.
"Market downturn" bruh SPY is still up 10.6% YTD, it's down 1.6% in the past month and 3% from ATH which was 3 weeks ago lmao. NASDAQ had a bit more of a dip but it's also up more YTD (12.6%). Try again when we're at least negative on the year then maybe we can start talking downturn.
it popped too at the end of the day. I managed to pick up some calls for Monday before the big green candles, which I'd add is more evidence that you're right. Usually hard reversals end of day like that signal what's going to happen the following trading day. I wouldn't be surprised if it melted up Tuesday as well. Post election.... I'm not so certain. I'm also half expecting the SPY to test its 200 day MA as soon as Friday and as late as next Friday.
Sorry kids Halloween is canceled. I spent my last dollar buying SPY calls yesterday.
Everything is way too highly valuated. I feel like my portfolio has remained crap for the last 6 months, and it's just pumping and dumping - look at spy. The idea now is to create mass confusion. If you catch onto the cycles you make money. I plan on taking a good amount of this and dumping into VTI and some into SPY leaps (2 years out) and just chill. Let the money work for itself. I don't even want to catch these daily...even the quarterly jackpots are fine.
