Up 14% today on this news:Yikes. I remember you being up big on TELL!
BBBY isn't bankrupt yet? Assumed the stock would be at $0 by now.I sold some $1.50 puts on BBBY for a 20% premium back when it was spiking up to $3-4-5 in late Jan early Feb. Think they were mid Feb experations.
See the stock is now .34, so I got out of there in time.
Looks like a reverse split is upcoming.
That's where it held before the FDA approvals (when it was literally days away from running out of money). As I mentioned before, those 2 FDA approvals have significant value for the company (and a possible purchaser). The big huddle for a purchase is the fact that LVV gene therapy is complicated as hell. The science and logistics are insane. Not many other companies are prepared to enter this space. AAV gene therapy is must easier to deal with.BLUE holding onto that $3 level.
I’m speculatively long it but have heard that they are continuing to bleed advisors and 8 figure accounts.FRC reports on the 13th. Down 80ish% from Feb levels. Could they possibly say something, aside from "we are going out of business", to make this go down more?
On the TTM that are on the record, it's P/E is 1.6x Price to book is .18x. Obviously these are outdated data, but they have priced in brutal earnings going fwd.
Can sell the Jul 2024 $30 strikes for $3.60.
Nat gas touched under $2 for a moment, then settled just above. Didn't pull the trigger on a BOIL trade yet. The last two times nat gas broke the $2 barrier it rallied for a bit. Maybe on Monday! :)I’m speculatively long it but have heard that they are continuing to bleed advisors and 8 figure accounts.

We have some nat gas plays in our managed backdoor Roth accounts, but small ones.....AR, ET, AMLP. Recently started a small position in RONI, which is a pre-merger spac play but has some experienced backers and potential game changing tech (Net Power). Once again, our Roth accounts are the only ones we have managed by an advisor. These include a 12% allocation for energy and material plays.I’m overweight Nat Gas with a permanent holding in RRC.
Can an individual state actual do this? Not sure. Regardless, beware of CBDCs in all forms.

I read states are allowed to have gold and silver tender, but can’t mint their own currency. I guess they would argue this is just a form of bullion trade.
SCHW 10%-15% lower is the sweet spot for me (currently 73).I’ve been nibbling on SCHW. I may be putting too much emphasis on fact that insiders have been buying heavily since it plummeted. I guess we’ll see…

BOIL would be short-term play. Learned a lot about nat gas over the past few months. Crazy stuff! :)
Nat Gas itself is a widow maker. Gotta zoom in closer than 1-year to see the benefit of BOIL. Timing a Nat Gas pop is the key.....along with a tight stop loss order. LOL!1 yr BOIL chart looks like a widow maker.
Well the Fed philosophy is to raise rates until something breaks. Credit contraction is much better thing to happen first, when compared to rising unemployment as the first thing that happens.
told you that was coming and it's going to get worse
Rate cuts and QE, here we come! :)told you that was coming and it's going to get worse
none of the networks are showing what's going on in France.
France is going to move right and rightfully so given the liberal policies there have gone too far
it's implications for the markets are yet to be determined
Fed will hike 25 bps next meeting. No cuts til well into '24.Rate cuts and QE, here we come! :)
"Nice" topic for the CE forum. Not here.Chris Martenson did a video about France
Its scary how manipulated the "news" is.
All identity kook news while world goes sketchy
You must be under the belief that a recession is coming. T2K said it already came and went.Fed will hike 25 bps next meeting. No cuts til well into '24.
Inflation will prove to be sticky. Fed on data watch, and it'll drive their decisions. Gas price at the pump is rising again, fairly quickly. Still seeing consumer goods/staples pricing edging up, but slowing. Fed terminal rate could go 5.75. So a few more raises, followed by a looong pause. Earnings will take a hit. Equity valuations to adjust. October lows retested in June-August. As for recession, yes, may have come and gone, but will return. Hoping for a shorter and shallower encore, but could be longer and deeper. The only certainty is uncertainty. Thoughts... not guidance.You must be under the belief that a recession is coming.

I tend to agree with you and slowly reducing my exposure in equities, way too many are close to their recent high. Been able to do very well in this environment.
There is simply nothing positive in the economy at the moment. The Fed wants to destroy the stock market. Banks had to be rescued and lending has crashed. Housing is a mess mainly because rates high, home prices still too high, inventory nonexistent. Autos are a joke = go try and buy or lease a new/used car. And all of the businesses that were crying that COVID destroyed them and took free gov’t money have now jacked up prices and are doing better than ever. That’s one of the things that pisses me off the most. I know too many people that took gov’t money only to turn around and buy toys like a Lamborghini, in-ground pools, home remodels, etc. Did the gov’t even verify whether businesses needed the handout? Anyway, I digress mainly because everywhere I go now it’s hard not to feel like I’m getting ripped off.You must be under the belief that a recession is coming. T2K said it already came and went.
As rates go up, the bond market and yields will keep going down. So what's the point when the market gives the Fed the middle finger? LOL.Fed will hike 25 bps next meeting. No cuts til well into '24.
Inflation is only "sticky" in the awful gov'ment metrics, not reality (smart money knows this). Oil is still lower than pre-Putin, bears have been warning about earnings for 4 quarters now (and FYI, stock prices historically bottom 9-10 months BEFORE earnings bottom), and we already had the recession.Inflation will prove to be sticky.

I tend to agree…and people continue to spend as credit balances are increasing. I also find that people under 30(ish) have zero sensitivity to the price of just about anything. There are generations that could care less what something costs and will simply pay up without giving value a second thought. Not that high school kids are a good measure of rational spending but $20 lunch at Chipotle/Starbucks seems like the norm in my area.October lows retested in June-August.

Check out your guys on the latest entry of "The Compound." They're echoing what many other folks are saying: a rough patch ahead. But... your money and your choices.Inflation is only "sticky" in the awful gov'ment metrics, not reality (smart money knows this).

Got anything else? :)
