Everyone is saying that the technology stocks are wildly overvalued and are about to collapse.

Everyone is wrong

lol

srs

Crypto also on the rise too, btc back to 8.3K looks like it might hit over 10k possibly soon

AMZN, NFLX, and a few other tech stocks are still going to go up

I'm calling good earnings for AMZN on thursday even though their prime day fuked up

And NFLX should pop back to where it was within next month

Anyone know anything about Albertson's stock value? Apparently the deal with RAD would value shares of Albertsons at around $23 dollars a share. I don't particularly care what the value is, but moreso wondering how RAD share value will look after the vote or leading up to the vote. I'm holding options for the week after that, but trying to decide if there is any merit to the stock going over $2. Right now it is looking more and more like no. I might have to just eat some crow and dump my options...

Who cares. Fade the open and buy slight OTM calls for friday from wherever it opens. It will go up $10 bucks probz from the low unless the earnings were really that awful. I'll have to look tonight before I decide for tomorrow. Essentially the same strategy I pulled with netflix a little bit back. This time I won't pull the plug early.

FB always tanks after earnings/conference call especially. Always bounces back immediately.

Netflix only missed on subscriber counts but revenues and other crap looked fairly healthy.

FB missed on just about everything and lowered guidance for next few quarters

chits down like 20%+, looks pretty serious. i guess BTD till it doesn't work

Real talk you think its gonna keep dropping if it opens -25% tomorrow? Hell naw it will probably settle down -15-18% imo. I guess we will see tomorrow. As always I'll post my entry.

i mean i wouldn't short it but i don't think the dip buy will be free money because nflx still pretty fresh in some folks minds and already see a ton of people wanting to buy the gap down at open

Exactly. The second it opens I'm moving in on calls.

The concern could be though that this triggers a tech selloff as institutional investors take this as a sign this is the top as companies are no longer meeting their expectations. Depending on how the rest of the market reacts tomorrow I might open deeper OTM netflix puts so I get a piece of the action regardless of which way we go.

This is why I like options though. I don't get stuck holding thousands of dollars worth of stock to potentially make 5-10%

A friend bought August FB 160p for 0.09 five mins before the close. boy's gonna make bank lol

[RobParks2M]

bought fb 180 calls. And ofc right out of the bag TDameritrade is nonfunctional(tried to sell at 4.50). Bought 3.80 and their system is down. I can't move in or out so I'm just stuck on the ride. Hopefully this turns out well.

out at 3.50. Calls aren't the place to be today in tech. Shoulda bought amazon or netflix puts to offset, but wasn't focused enough on those.

[Slamt]

Volatility burn all day on FB

too many dip buyers out of the gate and they made up their mind yesterday. not gonna go anywhere

[lsiberian]

I definitely took advantage of the FB dip to increase my position.

[Slamt]

Opened some FB 177.5 calls expiring tomorrow 1.72 a piece

Good luck. I'd have held the 180s but I'm out biking all weekend and wouldn't have internet at my campsite so I wouldn't be about to exit tomorrow . Was tempting to hop into next friday calls or next month calls that are fairly deep, but I'm getting the feeling we reached the tipping point where companies can no longer match expectations and we see a decent pullback or at least a long term consolidation.

[Slamt]

Thought AMZN was gonna put up a small beat and get some sympathy

FB acting like a dead fish

RIP

Any canadian brahs invest in alot of canadian banks? They offer high dividends and look like a really safe investment longterm

im new to investing but love the idea of dividends and looking for some good safe ones early on

Also was thinking of investing in Chartwell retirement residences, their growth has been pretty bad last few years but they are almost guaranteed to blow up with the baby boomers right?




Also might put 5k on various green stuff stocks, they have really blown up last few years

[DonkeySlap101]

where my value investors at? the long termers. I don't know puts and calls. i respect the craft. but i am all about the buffetology. love blood on the street.

anyone else take advantage of the ******** dip today?

I havent invested in any canadian banks (i'm canadian). Only bank i am in right now is Wells Fargo . I'd love to own JPMorgan but the price isn't right , right now.

Only canadian stock i own is Brookfield Property Management (bpy.un) . great real estate stock , one of the biggest companies in the world (NOT A REIT), that is about 5x cheaper than it should be right now.


i wouldn't personally invest in weed stocks if that is what you mean by green.. The valuations are too outrageous and too volatile for me right now. I'm sure there wil be a couple of clear winners but who knows who.

Here. Had bought 80 shares of ******** at 105 at the start of 2016. Gonna buy some more but my portfolio is super heavy in ******** so i'm definitely going to have to sell some off eventually or make a ton of money to distribute elsewhere.

personally would look for entry at $150 for a long term hold.

[Slamt]

Sold FB at open because I saw so many asking if they should buy this FB dip

thank god

Why are my oil stocks getting murdered this week?

[lsiberian]

If it hits that low that would be a steal. I'm not sure it's the best FAANG stock for long term holding though. Netflix and Amazon I'd think are better bets.

[lsiberian]

Why are my oil stocks getting murdered this week?

Which one? I've not seen oil getting murdered this week. FB and Netlix took the biggest hits. Ford got hit pretty heavy too.

Nah. FB has technical support around $120 if you’re patient. Markets overall might make July the top until October. Djia failed to break above 25801 and spy seems to be double topped. I’m waiting for a potential retest of the feb lows as we head into the fall
