I sold puts on it this month as well since I'm willing to take the position double it's current size, but I sold mine at $48 strike, resold those this week at $47.50 strike for 2/19.


I had taken a gamble this week and closed my $270 strike calls on LMT for pennies and resold 1/15 exp $250 strike for a nice haul, thankfully they expired worthless today and rolled them back to 2/19 $270s.

You guys flinging your penny stocks had me feeling frisky today and I took some risk and sold puts on FB at a $240 strike for a very juicy $8.90 premium
LMT does this dance where it crests to $400 and then runs back down to the $330s and then back up to $400. The $400 resistance is like an impenetrable barrier.

Guy who has a huge following says there will be a huge market crash due to a bubble. Good read. Anything can set it off.

Fuk it, I'm going to hold TRIT, maybe in a year I can actually get long term gains out of it.

Short term is going in dry on my 2020 taxes.

I think I have heard this story before.

Uhh, I thought we were in a consensus that this IS a bubble, months ago.

I've thought it was for 4 months or so, and with Biden coming in its either fascism or a bubble.

Hell, its the real reason I got into crypto. Its gold for nerds. And doesnt weigh 400lbs.

I gave Blazin Blazin shit about his WSB digs, but it is what it is. If everyone is blowing coke and making money, I wanna get in on it. But the whole reason I really started to take profits was because bubble. Most of the ppl here have felt it several times over the past year, and all it takes is one fuck up in that series of events for it to really tumble.

Difference in terminology. I don't think the overall market is in a bubble. I do think it is due for a healthy correction. Never underestimate the power of zero interest rates to keep a bull market going. A bubble bursting while interest rates are zero would be... bad as the Fed has no tools left in the toolbox. A solid 10% drop of the QQQs brings is just around the 100 DMA and still well above the 200DMA (like 10% plus). We are 22% above the 200 DMA.

I went about 50% cash last month but I have it working every week on QQQ puts making money. It will correct eventually and I will get assigned but it will be down deep from the high.

But every says TSLA isn't a car company, it's a tech company. Isn't that the mantra?
Im sure burned investors will be saying that while crying downing a bottle of jack in a year or so.

Kind of kicking myself for not selling all my AMD when it hit $99 Monday. Knowing whats in store for the future, Im out no later than Q1 earnings.

You probably meant this, but to be clear for anyone not explicitly keeping score it's even stupider than Tesla's market cap being higher than any individual other car manufacturer. It's currently ~$200B more than Ford, GM, Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan, Volkswagen, Fiat/Chrysler, and Peugeot COMBINED.

Sure, everyone's said this but bubble popping requires immense leverage against the overvaluation. Which I am sure is going on sure but I don't know much about it.

No, no... they’re a car company and a tech company and and energy company. That means they get the value of 3 companies, cubed.

You know shits getting real when Big Phoenix Big Phoenix starts talking about selling his AMD. By the way, if you don't mind me asking, what date and price did you get in it? That return has to be massive.

People are trying to organize a short squeeze on AMC like what happened with Gamestop - 68.93% short float on AMC currently

I am sort of shocked that much of the float was available to short. That was one of Elon's big advantages. He and his buds owned so much of the stock that there was only about 1/3rd of the float available to be shorted back in the $TSLAQ days.

Another link between CCIV and Lucid, though this one is a little more subtle. Remember Lucid has over 1 billion invested from Saudi Arabia. This lady is a board member of CCIV and is also CEO of Magic Leap which is an investment firm with a ton of Saudi money. So that's one board member on both companies and now this lady connected through her investment firm.

I made my scratch off the shares and now I think I will play it with puts for the near term.

It has driven me to (as I posted a few days ago) move away from QQQ as my primary core ETF and over to FTEC (Fidelity's Tech ETF). FTEC doesn't have any companies from the XLC (Communication sector) so no TWTR, GOOG, GOOL or FB. That makes me happy. I will still trade the QQQ's because of its liquidity, but for buy/hold its now FTEC. And its net fee is much lower than QQQ (0.08%).

Go back and read about a hundred pages or so and you shall have your answers. We welcome all types. If you deal with penny stocks or SPACs be prepared for Blazin Blazin to make fun of you though 😉
