MP is down pretty big the last couple days. Anyone track this one enough to offer insight into whether it's something worth buying and holding?

I've seen bank 1 year bonds or whatever for 4 something%, but where is actually giving 3.5% and still being liquid according to that article?

MP lost its long time support of 27$. There's not much between 27 to 15$

I like it, I have owned it and I trade options on it. I also have a rule which is not to trade companies ahead of earnings. My advice is to wait until after earnings in a few weeks and then circle back.

Woke up to this as my update on Karma. Super close to opening a ROTH and start catching up from my dumb choices made when younger.

Credit scores are fucking retarded.

In my entire credit history my only negative mark is a single late payment. All accounts in good standing, lines of credit open for decade+, had a mortgage for 7 years.

Credit always hovers around 750-780. Never once cracked 800.

Wife and I were both at 820+ for a while. I ended up with an uncollected medical bill I didn't know about which dumped me like 100 points. Got it taken off and it was still around 800 afterwards.

Literally no idea why though. We don't do anything special.

Utilization %? How much of your open credit are you using at any given point?

I have one credit card with something stupid like a $50k limit and if I let it sit at just $5k balance, I get pinged a few points negatively for credit utilization. If all of your balances sit at 0 like mine typically do, I have 820s all day long. (Never had a mortgage, last financed a car like 20 years ago, pure credit card history across 3 cards)

Some crazy shit is here in the UK, its the same credit companies: Experian, Equifax, Trans Union. They don't talk either side of the pond, so while had perfect credit in the US, moved here with my Brit wife and had zero credit history. About 4 years later, no mortgage, no auto loans, and two credit cards only... I have a 999 UK score (highest possible). Makes no sense.
