CEO of SPY said he’s delisting the stock and taking it private if retail lets it drop sub 700 tomorrow.
# SPY will never be below 700 again 😎
Christ dude, people have made so much damn money on these BS moon shot calls. How the fuck is AMD rocketing. MSFT rocketing, after months of red. SPY hitting 700 with the strait still closed and 6 weeks of oil gone from the markets. GOOGL, AMZN, NVDA, nearing or at their ATH's again. What the fuck??
They are not buying SPY. They are buying individual shares which is pumping SPY's value
But when is SPY 490 coming back......some bears probably....

[5:31 PM · Apr 16, 2026](https://x.com/dolfiniran/status/2044891352819781722) ruh roh. actually no. who cares. SPY: +50% tomorrow for sure. "talks going well" and "2 more weeks". Don't worry all. We're at ATH! This all MAKES SENSE.
Think SPY can hit 750 this year? Or have an end of year prediction
SPY ran almost 12% in 12 trading days. It goes down slightly after hours. OMG, it's over!
Volume has been low on SPY and SPX options. Institutions are sitting out waiting to see if they need to sell or buy. Once they decide there is going to be a big move one way or another. There isn't a lot holding this from nosediving. If we get below 6900 on some bad news we don't stop until 6500.

SPY DRILLING 🤌🤌🤌 -Ber right now
The economy has crashed. The average citizen is in debt, living paycheck to paycheck, and one unexpected expense from bankruptcy. The stock market won’t crash until the billionaire ruling class are positioned to benefit from it. There’s a reason the pelosi index consistently outperforms the SPY

Hey guys, everything is fine… their definitely won’t be an 11% drop on SPY from here before the end of October
SPY 700p 4/20 I’ll die on that hill
Ok SPY, getting tired of this 702 bs. Either dump or pamp but stop fuckin' around!
Consider the loss tuition. Go back to buy and hold and keep adding funds every paycheck (like 10% or so) and you’ll eventually recover and make new highs. You should recognize that most people here are day traders and only 3%, roughly, are profitable. (Source: https://www.newtrading.io/is-day-trading-profitable/) Also note that most people here are playing with money they can afford to lose. These types of market trades are not 100% of the portfolio. Also know that very few paid financial advisors beat the market either. Specifically, active U.S. large-cap fund managers versus the S&P 500—the percentage that beat it is usually a minority. In S&P’s latest SPIVA U.S. Year-End 2025 report, 79% of active large-cap U.S. equity funds underperformed the S&P 500 in 2025, so only about 21% beat it that year. Over longer periods, the numbers get much worse: 89.93% underperformed over 15 years, meaning only about 10.07% beat it, and 92.89% underperformed over 20 years, meaning only about 7.11% beat it. On a risk-adjusted basis, only about 1.39% beat it over 15 years. (Source: https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/spiva/article/spiva-us/) What I’m trying to convey here is that if you believe you can crush the market and make outsized returns you’re against very high odds of failure and if you succeed you’re in the very, very small minority. You shouldn’t be suprised you lost a lot of money when you put your entire account into options and crypto without a solid strategy that has been tested and monitored. The really only thing I have personally seen for long term survival on an entire portfolio is to have the majority, if not the entirety, of the account in a balance between stock indexes and bonds and rebalancing mechanically, usually every quarter. If you’re not willing to learn this, usually 80% stock index like VOO or QQQ OR SPY and 20% bonds like AGG, the just buy and index (or mix of indexes), add money every paycheck or month, reinvest the dividends, and stop gambling. If you still want to swing for the fences with options, then separate out a small portion of the portfolio (5-10%) and gamble with that. But if you have to be willing to take the occasional win and pull some profits and feed the money into the long term portion of your portfolio. If you’re like most people I know, you’ll learn after 1-2 years your gambling is a lot of work, a burden, a time sink, a tax burden of your not in retirement accounts since you can only write off 3,000 a year in losses but have to pay tax on all your gains, and results in underperforming the long term positions and just give up and stick with long term position trading and living life outside of staring at candlesticks 16 hours a day. And if you really do find you’re addicted and can’t stop and can’t stick with long term holds, then look of Gambler’s Anonymous in your city and go to a meeting and find a sponsor. Hopefully you’re not at this point yet but only you can determine that. Good luck.
There was a guy here last night w really old nuts SPY 700 eod tomorrow
The weird thing is that when I backtested deciles of total debt/total assets within the S&P 500, the highest debt decile crushed the market from 2000, getting 14% annual returns, outperforming SPY 20/26 years (from 2000, including part of 2026). All the S&P 500 got 11% returns, and outperformed SPY 14/26 years. The bottom 10% (which included GOOGL, much of the time) got 8.3%, outperforming 10/26 years.
So Y SPY get ATH but not NVDA? Manipulation, clearly
SPY puts for first 3hrs. switch to calls at 1pm
*Rational Exhubarance* coming up. SPY 800 🚀
Why SPY hits 737 it's going to pull a boeing.
Holding vix calls/SPY puts for June are literally free money
You've proven to be really good (or lucky) at picking individual stocks. If I replace all of your individual stocks with SPY, you get 12.3% per year, with slightly more drawdown than SPY. If I leave your individual picks in, you get 17.3% per year performance, with the same drawdown as SPY. This matters: I backtested from 6/2011, (filling in SPMO with top 30% of S&P 500 momentumwise before 2018), and the total returns are are $1.07m for the portfolio WITH individual securities, and $560k without, assuming you started with $100k in June 2011. So, yes, you are probably picking momentum and semis too much. But that said, you do seem to get results from individual stocks, and you probably shouldn't give that up.
The meme stocks are going to go b a n a n n a s once this shitstorms calms. best to devote 10% cheap otm calls on everything and hope you catch a face ripper, while putting 50% in VOO/SPY and 40% in some bullshit dividend stock like O
He was trading so insane though. All in on SPY options. $150k on his positions at times Gotta cool the breaks. It’s never that deep
You have less home bias than most -- which is good. Unfortunately, since the S&P 500 has been on fire for quite a while, you end up lagging them, getting 10.2% vs 13.9% annually since 2011 (assuming you invested that way in 6/1/2011 and left it alone from there). Even more irritatingly, your max drawdown is the same as the S&P 500. The portfolio lagged SPY every year from 2013-2024. But it did beat in 2025 and YTD. And not having all of your eggs in one country is good. Very good.
Needless to say, these pricks are sharp as a tack. Points have been made. Tip: pointy pins punctured my pp please avoid porcupines in pinstriped suits aka spineless wall st SPY 750 EOD

Not saying that it should or that it makes sense; but by all accounts SPY shouldn't be 650 let alone 702 and yet here we are. 🤷♂️
lmfao I have 3 calls of SPY @704. Ending tomorrow. May the games be in your favor!
NFLX with a preview of what will happen with the SPY
No offence, but maybe you should properly read and understand my comment before you respond VIX 30+ is obviously a great dip timer. It's a no brainer to buy when VIX is over 30. It's the same as saying you'll buy SPY at 400. Yeah, no shit But if that's your *only* criteria, it's useless. In the last few years, after each dip if you wait until the next dip to buy, you would have left lots of money on the table
SPY 697: Market is overvalued and not worth the premium!!! SPY 702: Market is fairly priced!!!
Sell your soul, and throw the proceeds into SPY 0DTEs 🔥
Made 6k on SPY puts this week while my port is at an ATH for not selling from my main port 🤌
I am here and will purchase your SPY shares for the great low price $650, same as it ever was.
Posts like these are regarded. They suggest markets ONLY go up, they never down. What's the probability the market goes up another 50% over the next year or two versus down 50%??? SPY +50% would be $1,050 vs -50% would be $350???
1. learn the settlement characteristics. Some options are physically settled, some financially. This also affects how close to expiration you can carry positions (see next point) 2. Learn the delivery basics. Mainly, what your broker does around that time. Many retail brokers won't let you take physical delivery, so the flow is like this: trade futures options, options are exercised or assigned (possibly early) and then the resulting futures position (sometimes only a few hours old) must be liquidated by you, or your broker will call you and tell you to close out or they will do it for you. Ie, If you're running a volatility strategy, you need to know any non-obvious dates or limits that might affect, say, your gamma positioning (eg, due to delivery rules on the underlying that will affect what you can do with the options) 3. You should definitely understand rates and also carry in general. Do you know how to find the comparable strikes between ES and SPY, for example? Do you know how to trade or avoid the dividend? 4. US taxes can get confusing for things like "mixed straddles", fyi 5. The basics: are you trading American style or European? AM or PM expiration? When does the spot/cash market stop trading? (And therefore liquidity dries up). Etc 6. Margin. Obviously futures margin is separate from securities margin. And it's risk-based. The carry on the margin/debits is a struggle for many people. Daily cash sweeps are not great, but it sounds like you want to avoid holding outrights anyway 7. More basics. 18 month options on USO have the same underlying ticker as the 0 DTE options. Not the case for CL options. Don't screw up your calculations for strikes and carry when working over any duration Anyway, nothing inherently stops you. But often hedging like this mainly adds complication (not always, though). If you want to open an options spread in CL and hedge with USO, it's possible. Not great, but it can work. IIRC, CL options are American style, so early assignment is on the table (which shouldn't be a huge deal, but carrying the outright can be a pain) -- similar to USO options anyway.
What does SPY open at tomorrow?
Every single one of these points are valid and I agree with all of them. This is why SPY will be 800.
SPY goes up .25% per day til next March and do it all over again?
Buddy, we like money. SPY 800.
whoever called SPY 700 that quick, bravo
Stairs up ? Not a thing anymore. SPY moving 10% in two weeks is the new normal I guess.
Wait while you both argue about meeting out back. I purchased 1 SPY put. .7 Delta 20 DTE …
Puts. Look at the oil volume and action today. SPY ath. You’d be dumb not too
Mia Khalifa just bought 30dte SPY PUTS
SPY 700 has been established, so endless theta for the rest of year probably
Five years ago, this young latino stud showed up at my house to startup my irrigation system for the season...buff, great hair cut, very handsome dude.

No, "SPY 800", 'cause they be printin' some $$$'s
Anybody here a good artist ? I wanna get “SPY 700” drawn up to tattoo on my neck
SPY Down last 6 straight Fridays, they make it 7 tomm, right?!
I do this for my SPY holdings buying 30-36 months DTE of protective puts. Works out to 2%-2.5% per annum of protected value. Once i buy these protective puts, i sell 30-45 DTE puts at low deltas below the strike price of protective puts to recover the premium paid (and then some!) over this period of time. Once my protective puts expire, i start again.
Really praying that SPY can open over 703 tomorrow
Hopefully SPY 1000 after this weekend when the war is announced
Need SPY to close below 700 tomorrow. My puts depend on it
So SPY volume has been super low over the past couple of weeks. This means they institutions are just waiting for something. What do you think they are waiting for and what will be the result when they flood the market with volume?
Well 2009 was slightly different since SPY dropped like 60% in a year lol
#SPY sees all your PUTS and raises you to 707
Euphoria phase ended with SPY 700 but Bols didnt get the memo
Market has been loading puts for protection not for being bullish, here’s the data of calls/puts expiring tomorrow https://whalequant.io/en/stocks/SPY/options
The last agreement with Iran took 20 months to achieve (JCPOA under Obama, which Trump trashed). Those negotiations didn’t start after weeks of bombing, which has both sides as far apart as ever. Admin seems to be holding themselves to weekly deadlines, which seem unrealistic, and the media is holding them to their misses. The market seems to like the return to diplomacy by this sharp recovery. More bombing could derail us, but news today is more ceasefires between Israel and Lebanon. I imagine the admin asking the auto companies for help is just quicker replenishment. I went cash yesterday when we hit SPY 700. We could let out some steam after this run. But trying not to get caught up in the sensationalized doom & gloom.
Gotta have a -0.3% day on SPY tomorrow to recharge for next week.
What if this happens to SPY..
Aaah Friday, good day for SPY puts
NVDA was going down with SPY but not going up with it so I bought puts for tomorrow.
alright SPY lets just go up another 1% tomorrow to cover my regarded NFLX calls
> The market feels like when your car is making weird noises and you just turn up the radio and completely ignore all the warning signs That's a really good simile, which is why I dumped 60% of my calls at today's highs, lol. SPY is very thinly traded... you see it drop nearly $3 today on 400k volume? In the morning we saw VIX rising, Oil rising, 10-year rising, AND SPY rising. That's spooky.
Tomorrow i need big days from SPY and PLTR.
Wait, isnt Netflix a pretty big company in the SPY?
SPY.ai -> $750 eom.
Just got robbed.. someone gave me 5 SPY puts
What a bitch ass SPY day.
NVDA gonna go up $10 tomorrow. SPY $20
I have no idea why so many people are seeing only green. I see 2 red candles on both SPY and QQQ in last 12 days. Had to reset my TradingView lol
Netflix is prob the first of many. And not everyone has a failed deal windfall to otherwise avoid failed growth expectations. Nike.AI will prob be an even more obvious Harbinger in hindsight than Pets.com ever was lol. I mean c'mon, SPY 700 while US gas pump prices going over $5.00? History didn't even rhyme it just bought all its music back and re-release it's own version.
