Fedex reports after the bell. My prediction is no matter how good they do, they will miss some insane analyst prediction and the stock will get crushed. Gas prices and labor costs are the big fuck you to their results.

And then buy more on the dip, like Nuecor. I'm not happy with myself for not buying more, but I'm already in vacation mode. Could have made a quick 5% on that.

The Fed does care about inflation. However, what the Fed cares more about is Government borrowing costs. There is a $2T spending bill one vote from being passed. Our Government in its current form cannot survive interest rates at 2, 3 or 5%. The interest charges would kill them. Congress has fucked us into a corner without a way out. Im not making this a political derail but the Coronachan debacle was mishandled as well as it could be mishandled in terms of keeping our country solvent. There is no way to deal with the massive amount of dollar printing that happened the last 24 months. Except of course 20% interest rates and that bankrupts the government with its debt burden.

I think it's important to mention that there's the inflation that exists, and the inflation that they admit to. Skimming from the difference is probably going to save the gov a lot of money too. And fudging the numbers when it suits them is the governments S-tier skill.

Glad I bought a bit more CLF yesterday at pretty much the same cost of my initial buy. Missed the absolute bottom price yesterday, but still. Should maybe have done the same with NUE, but I was thinking it might head to 94 again like it had in the recent past.

Isn't tomorrow going to be some massive options day and everything's going to go apeshit or something?

Oil, financials, FAANG, some industrials now, travel stocks in January. He did say we are in a risk-on atmosphere after the Fed meeting yesterday. I loaded up on all of these weeks ago when the unicron data started showing to be that it was as dangerous as the common cold (because it attached itself to it).

Listened to my boy Fogel Fogel and sold some $22.50 MTTR puts expiring tomorrow.

Might get assigned, might collect pennies in front of a stream rolller- tune in tomorrow to find out!

How much premium did you get? I think it depends on the markets tomorrow as it seems to react strongly to if nasdaq is red/green

Sold em last week. Got $1.00.

Would get assigned, but above breakeven currently. Was willing to buy one more chunk in the $22.50 range, so happy either way!

I will let the markets decide for me brother 🙃

After the 3pm movement I set a trailing stop on DOCU and just got stopped out. Not all trades are good trades.

Ended up the stop saved me 75 cents a share.
