To add more to the above dissertation, I have seen about 10 estimates on 2Q GDP and they range anywhere from -3% to -30.1%. These firms are supposed to have smart people working for them!

Sold some ET covered calls @$9 for 7/17 when the price hit $5.30 today. Figure it's a win win... if it's at $9 by July then things are going great in the market and I cover my basis and if not... some extra cash!

I'm thinking the more likely scenario is closing the position for a locked in gain after the stock goes sub $4.... thats a WAG.

ETA.... thoughts? I'm new to this.,

How Bill Ackman Turned $27 Million Into $2.6 Billion During the Coronavirus Crisis

I have no problem with shorting, it's part of the market. But Ackman should go to jail for this after promoting the 30 day quarantine

I remember watching this interview. He was on the verge of tears with his apocalyptic message. Slimy SOB.

I don't get all the anger. A) He wasn't wrong about what we should be doing. B) Presumably their hedge fund lost a truckload in their regular holdings, right? It's not like he sold all his long positions and went 100% short, right?

I guess if you think this virus isn't a big deal then we'll have to agree to disagree.

Can we put a community fund together and let Michael Burry (Riley)/OA to short the markets and make a return like this? I will be the first to invest. Then we could actually move some volume and move the markets together like our friend clay said

TLDR: info from employees in Germany paint a gloomy picture of infection rates that are expected to peak next week

I can provide more details via PM if interested. Those stating market uncertainty because we don't have all the data are correct. I have employees in Stuttgart Germany. The base commander sent a very detailed email down the chain.

Excerpts are:
increased infection rates in the military community
Converting base gym to a makeshift hospital
Increased drive up testing that has identified a couple of asymptomatic people that tested positive that were in jobs and had interaction (medical staff, a bank teller, a waitress).
Cited issues of delay in getting test results
German counterpart states that area hospitals are expected to reach capacity by next week and concern not enough staff. More or less asking US to ramp up to handle our personnel if we can.

To be honest, was pretty jarring email especially if they are taking the steps to call in medical personnel from other bases as well as to convert the gym to make more hospital beds.

Agree. Same with Soros who shorted real estate and then told everyone why REITs will fail on national tv.

Hey, at least he told everyone he was honest about shorting real estate before scaring everyone to follow him.

Pretty good runup these last couple of days. Thinking about moving my 401K balance to cash (obviously staying in the account) as I think we are going to drop down a good 10% or so at least before the charge back up. Obviously this is an incredibly long term account (35 years out for me). thoughts if trying to do these type of moves in a 401K is smart, dumb, etc.?

It is expected to be bad. Like 3.5MM bad. Just a matter of how they word it.

Jobless numbers come out at 7:30a central time I believe and I can't help but think they're going to be the highets we've seen in years. Texas Workforce Commission has basically cried "UNCLE" on phone calls and people can't even get through to file a claim at this point.

Employers have been cutting left and right and expediting these processes, I think the number is going to surprise some people. Does the market have it worked in already though?

Take the worst unemployment week we ever had. Multiply by 4. That is the expectation. I can't imagine it going up tomorrow, which means it surely will.
