unity was talked about a lot 2 weeks ago yep, lots of eyes on NIO (big call volume there this week) after JPM raised price targets to $40+ on NIO

HTZ lots of action today (i would never touch this trash) because of new $1.5 billion secured in financing, monthly OPEX day today and lots of OTM calls being pinned down for major tech companies like AMZN, AAPL, FB.. 100% today was gonna be a red day.




my current plays are
AAL 1/18/22 $10c (down 20% on these ._.)
GS 200 shares (avg 206.72, waiting for 210 target next week to sell)
DIS 6/18/21 $130c (got in before disney announcement to shift focus to streaming/online platform more - restructuring basically)
AAPL 1/15/21 $115c (got these a while ago in sept, holding til 0.8 delta or 130)
SPY 12/18 $340p (got these on monday, small hedge)
VXX 1/15/21 $25c (hedge against volatility pop on elections)

Anybody else ever get pissed off looking at ZM (Zoom) knowing you couldv'e bought it at multiple points but didn't trust it would continue going up and it just keeps going up?

I've been watching it since the whole thing started. 80 a share, thought it was too risky, 120, 200, 300, too risky. Never bought. Now at 500, still feel like it isn't worth the risk. Fuck

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

yeah zoom is such a stupid stock, i refuse to touch it at this point.

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

i mean for crying out loud, it went from $300 to $450 overnight (a 50% jump, FIFTY PERCENT) like a penny stock would after the earnings report that it quadrupled revenue projections (like, 2 cents a share, to 6 cents a share.. big woop..)

hate that stock so much, can't wait until it fades into obscurity

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

big moves today in the market, not so hot for tech

airlines (AAL, ALK, DAL, LUV) (american airlines, alaska airlines, delta airlines, southwest) all up huge
retail & sales (M, KSS, JWN) (macy's, kohl's, nordstrom) also up 7-9% across the board
oil recovery (XOM, CVX)
entertainment & hospitality (RCL, CCL, DIS, MGM, HLT) all up huge as well today

looks like we're pricing in a vaccine now, stimulus or not. GILD (gilead sciences) had remdesivir approved by the FDA as coronavirus treatment today.

will airlines recover? we just crossed 1 million passengers throughput for the first time since march just this week.

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

retail & sales up again today
oil down
everything saw recovery starting midday.. all the tech giants have been lagging this week but starting midday today we saw a vertical recovery on guys like FB, AMZN, GOOG (not AAPL though since that one's manipulated to all hell by market makers)

election's week coming up.. happy with me +$7k today!

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

Can I give you all my credit to invest, you can keep 25% :monkey:

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

no because playing with somebody else's money always leads to worse decision making, hedge fund managers typically don't beat the overall market anyways!

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

Makes me want to figure out options trading. Always felt it was too risky to ever research how to make it work

Re: Stock Market Chit Chat
 

extremely risky yes, it's meant to be an insurance & hedging tool but you know how human nature is.. so people turned it into a hyper leveraged gambling thing.

well, with the right research it can be used to amplify gains.
