You use options contracts (they exist as puts and calls) to trade an underlying security. Puts are bought outright when you believe the stock will decline, calls when you think it'll rise. Each contract is worth 100 shares, but the value of it can range from $0.00 to no limit. Options also expire so if you think the stock will be below $40 by March 1, you will buy a $35 put. It's January and the stock is currently trading at $44 and that put is most likely worth $0.20. Since there's 100 shares, you will have to pay $20 ($0.20 x 100) to purchase a single contract. If by March 1 it is not below $35, that put will be worth $0.00. If the stock is $34, it'll be worth $1.00 (or 100 x $1.00 so $100).

i bought some SPY today as well 3k of it...gonna add about 3k to it per month.
as far as individual stocks go...im thinking to go with more growth stocks instead of dividend investing. Thoughts on Microsoft? or other growth stocks leading into 2020?

I heard your mogging on SPY as you cope to not beating the general market, but how is TSLA and SFTBY not more targeted investments? not like general market investments. I prefer to stick with what i'm good at when it comes to work and not take up a second job and rather actually live my life.
Don't bring your annoying crap in here bro this should be a strict investing forum not troll talk. Write your hearts content in a PM i'll be sure to read it.

Softbank ($SFTBY) because of their acquisition of Boston Dynamics from Google. They also have big stakes in both Uber and Lyft so it's kinda like investing in rideshare by proxy but yeah i didn't even find that out till after i pursued it for Boston Dynamics. It's a Japanese tech company that has major holdings in many growing tech sectors and is a mobile provider at that

why do people do puts? arent they super risky considering the stock market has a history of going upwards. Secondly, in a bull market and if u are wrong the stock just keep going upwards

Nah puts are priced based on expected volatility basically so puts for volatile stocks will go for much higher premiums. When im speculating on the market as a whole ill either play options on SPY or SPX since they are very liquid. Options on individual stocks are much less liquid so u can get rekted on the bid/ask spread if you need to enter or exit a position quickly.

How many years have I been posting about the upcoming pension crisis? Low interest rates have destroyed them, and public pensions will get rekt once rates rise. That's the conundrum central banks are in.

Ha. won't get my hopes up, media's newest talking point @ Iran and all the absolute retards saying the word "WW3" over the weekend. unfortunately has an effect on the market.
i suck at this but guessing a decently heavy drop and recover mostly throughout the day -first couple days.
