I’ve never done options, but from what I understand, I could buy some puts to recover some money if the stock goes down, which I know it’s been up and down which is why I’m unsure if I should risk such move to try to recover to just turn around and dig myself deeper in the hole.

you should have chosen GME, the one true play
not AMC, the wannabe

This isn't pie. GME AND AMC to the moon!

Sold the BBY and ZM premarket for a nice $14K one day gain. Too much volatility for me today.

VXX calls hit big, sold half, bought more DIA and VTI. Sitting to see what happens next

Anybody took action during this turbulent week?
I bought ILMN, gene sequencing company.

chassis · 12-03-2021, 09:31 PM

I added to a quality growth position. First portfolio change in a while for me.

antzcrashing · 12-03-2021, 09:43 PM

Bought DocuSign on the slide it took, also some SPY and DIA

antzcrashing · 12-04-2021, 07:38 AM

Crypto is getting hammered today

Traded all my Nvidea for Marvel minutes before the Marvel report the other day.
Marvel was on a streak, and Nvidea lost the ARM acquisition that day.
And I got lucky!

I threw a few Atlantic City casino drink tips into a Regulation CF offering. Probably lose it all, but YOLO.....

XKxRome0ox · 12-06-2021, 02:32 PM

wish i had cash to buy the dip
good luck to everyone else

Looking to make a buy but in no hurry. I think 2022 will be good for the market absent a flock of black swans.

Humdizzle · 12-07-2021, 05:58 PM

added to my amazon position a few days ago since i couldn't decide how to spread that money between multiple other stocks. just a gut feeling they will do well over the holidays.

strong pump today across the market. nearly fell out of my chair when i randomly checked my stocks this afternoon and saw i was up 3% overall today.

Good buy. Recently top pick for 2022 by:
GS ( John Blackridge) top internet pick
Cowen ( Eric Sheridan) top mega cap pick

Both analysts have decent track records. I should add.

So, which company is going to manufacture the 500M home COVID tests that Biden is buying?

Know any politicians who’ll give info on this? I’ll dig and report back.

This week the administration announced it will purchase 500 million test kits that will be distributed free through a website. Some states and cities have already been offering free test kits. In September and October, the White House also announced $3 billion in investments to purchase test kits, secured agreements from manufacturers to speed production, and promised to streamline regulatory approvals needed to bring new tests to market.

XKxRome0ox · 12-30-2021, 11:22 AM

just thinking out loud here

holding a LEAPS on MU at $60 strike, June 2022 exp
been selling CC's against it
but I made the mistake of selling too low of a strike when MU was down
now the short call is deep in the money ($82.5 strike, current share price around $95)
i was going to ride it out until mid January and then try to roll it out but I just got notice that MU is going ex-dividend tomorrow
so I'm most likely going to be assigned early

buying back the short call would cost about $1245 (a $645 loss)
but I don't have enough cash in the account to do this
so i'd have to either sell off other assets
or
just close my entire position
i do come out ahead overall ... but I am bullish on MU and didn't want to sell the $60 call
the plan was to sell some more CC's and then exercise the $60 call

i guess I could close the position and buy back a $65 or $70 instead

It's so stupid. Omicron will be done with the US by the time these kits are accessible. Plus, home test kits are woefully inaccurate, especially Omicron. It's all theater.

Hopefully omnicron will peak soon. Yes, politics of attempting to looking good. Wonder how hard, say Pfizer and or Moderna is working on the omnicron antiviral, maybe mute.
