[Carbonfibre]

bit puzzled that apple and amazon (think they phucked up not doing stock split) sold off after monster earnings (fb only one that is holding)

watched berkshire hathaway shareholder meeting, only takeaway warren saying they are seeing significant inflation in their business

JPow speaks June again, tapering has to happen this year at some point. wonder if market is trying to price that in. its acting like saw for few weeks now.



from reddit implied moves this week

not touching any options on any

[lntense]

Pretty aggressive ups and downs tbh. Going to hold long now that **** is opening up.

Are earnings supposed to positive for Friday?

[mulletwarrior]

what are the:
strike
exp
cost

also most anticipated earnings this week:



Only one I'm playing is RKT with 100x $24cc's 5/7

lol RKT is the only pump and dump I was able to get in early on and sell and turn a nice profit same day - back in march. Not trying to read tea leaves or anything, but this is kinda interesting:

Same. But he must be wrong, because I was told on the misc by specialists that inflation isn't happening, believe the CPI data, and there's nothing to worry about.

Misc economists have a better understanding of money flow than the fed. Trust them.

[smashedurgfx10]

well today started well. then something happened

[mulletwarrior]

Same. But he must be wrong, because I was told on the misc by specialists that inflation isn't happening, believe the CPI data, and there's nothing to worry about.

Based on advice I have received from misc, all of my money going into certain shilled pennystocks, LOGE and I am taking out maximum loans to buy real estate because we going to see 10000x gainz in next 5 years because this time is different than 2008.

Fed is saying its transitory so its all good.

Till this January everyone was laughing at Berkshire and Ark was the next messiah.

Now all option flow is just puts on ARKK.

QQQ put buying has been heavy since last week, again today.



So growth stocks look like most to lose when tapering happens.

[RoyalRyy]

CPI data coming up on May 12th is expected to be the worst one followed by the 2nd worst in June. We're probably gonna see some crazy volatility.

Time to move to value stocks? Maybe everyday item companies like Proctor and Gamble, Coca Cola, Johnson and Johnson, etc. ?

I've been thinking about parking cash somewhere better than the measly 0.5% high yield savings, but I don't want to lose any of the money. Worst case I lose a little capital growth in these stocks but even up on the div. payment. Best case, I get the div. and the stock gains some if people pull out of tech and into everyday products and commodities.

PG, Verizon, JNJ, maybe some utilities for the dividend. Idk, doesn't seem like big tech is safe for money I may need in the next year or two. But I have to do something because 0.5% is killing me.

[dopamine72]

Anyone in draft kings?

Hell yes

[Abzu]

My whole portfolio is based on an outlook of higher and sustained inflation.

I'm pretty deep in mining, oil, real estate and healthcare.

I want some tech but the price just isn't right for me.

I'm loaded to the tits in deep af ITM LEAPs, so just running PMCC's until I need to exercise/close. Premiums are super juicy, so going to take advantage for as long as possible.

Covered calls. If you can't beat .5% with CC's, I got some BAD fukkin news brah.

[Elias373]

So.. what happened for the markets to take a huge dump? Did Biden make an appearance somewhere?

M1 Money supply and M1 velocity (fed stopped printing this) is off the charts. Like out of this planet off charts.

So there is insane amount of money waiting to explode on the economy when it goes fully open. Demand will huge and not enough supply to cover.

Every news headline coming weekly is showing it.

Rental companies buying used cars, people renting uhaul trucks Hawaii on vacation. etc.

Intel ceo says this morning chip shortage will require 2 years to resolve.

I don't have any stocks to sell covered calls on. So you're saying buy 100 shares of something and sell a covered call on it? How far Out of the money do you use for strike price? Which stocks are best for this?

[BulkingIsHard]

So if CPI is higher than predicted, will stocks pump or drill? High inflation is obviously bad news but inflation also rises the price of assets; so will the current price on assets be “undervalued” and cause more buying?

Yea guys if you think the economy is weak and inflated you’ve been wrong for the past 10 years. Just keep gambling on small cap high growth stocks like the misc trading experts, it’s literally free money and nothing bad will ever come out of it.

The car market is fukin insane! I'm selling my mom's 2017 audi q7 50k miles and it's going around 42-45k right now.

EDR is looking thick and solid. So far I got 28 shares. Looking to add more when I get some money

All comes down to your risk tolerance and overall goal(s).

Even though premiums are dog chit on most stocks with dividends, you can at least bank on dividends plus SOME kind of premium return on selling calls. Quick example with VZ

Buy stock at $58.23
Sell 6/18 $62.5c @ $.15

In premium that's a .25% ROI, so in ~2 months you will have beat your .5%, plus a dividend. Or if it hits, that's an 8% ROI should you let them get called away (doubtful at that strike tbh).

.25%/month is a fukkin grind but if consistent that will be a 3% annual return PLUS your dividend. Seems as "safe" as it gets, but again it's all about your style/strategy/goal.

[RoyalRyy]

AMD leaps looking noice. Anybody thinking about dabbling?

[smashedurgfx10]

if cpng rallies to 50 in the next week i will rep every single one of you no matter how long it takes

it has earnings coming out in a few weeks. theyre probably going to be good, but as we've seen recently - market expectation is way too high.

[NoScrubz]

In on new thread. AHT and SU earnings this week let’s gooooo

[lntense]

Same. Happy about my purchase lol.

[Harry362]

In on new thread. AHT and SU earnings this week let’s gooooo

Looking forward to SU earnings. Hopefully they beat, reinstate dividend, and stock goes up to $25 so I can break even

[dankydank]

AMD looking real joocy. It had some support at 78 before, usually jumped to $81-82 before being slapped back down

[chino3]

Damn can you believe Amazon?

So glad I got out of that ******* stock. Won't even consider touching unless <$3100

AMD leaps looking noice. Anybody thinking about dabbling?

If it's still this low end of week, I might load up. What are you eying?
