Is this true? WTF is going on in stock world?


We're playing with Monopoly money is my guess. When a dumbass like me can make 20K on naked calls then the chickens will eventually come home to roost.

Just kidding. All credit due to the nice folks providing guidance and recs.

Think about how much of an idiot you have to be to not make a ton of money in this (like me)

Regarding the WHO: feels like this falls into the camp of evolving learning. The 6 ft precaution may have been out of an abundance of caution and there is evidence where mask wearing and isolation crushed the curves, Czech Republic and New Zealand. Like everything else, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. We should be smart enough to evolve how we think as we learn more, in both directions.

I would be careful about confusing prodrome and pre-symptomatic. The flu is definitely contagious in prodrome and a day or so before noticeable symptoms show up. There is still a lot unknown about this thing. I know the fads are 1) covid is a nothing burger, I'm going to go about my routine with zero changes and 2) the world will end and we need to live in bubbles until everyone is vaccinated. I'd rather exist somewhere in the middle of those for now. F
Shutting down the world for a nothing burger.

INUV - looks like its broke resistance and is now breaking our after hours. V. high volume.

OA mentioned it a month of so ago and I bought some then and just bought some more a few minutes ago.

Appreciate it one of you smart folks could check it out.

It's not, but it also thankfully not a worst case scenario. I'd be careful to monitor the impacts. Texas has had a lot of cases lately and it brought New York to its knees. We should be careful not to be over confident, although we likely wouldn't restrict activity again. I don't want to see 1K daily cases in Dallas County.

You're assuming that there is lasting or meaningful immunity, which is unknown yet. At 1K cases a day, it will take a long time anyway. I think there are 2.5M residents. Even at 0.4% fatality rate, that's a lot of people.

Only thing I'll say on it as it's off topic. 0.4% is overstated. Likely double or more. New York was also a disaster directly related to the decisions the government made there to send sick nursing home patients back into the highest risk communities and infecting everyone there. The government doesn't do that and you're talking thousands fewer deaths there.

Hey Crazy rich guy who followed me on NINE. Howd you do today? Did you consolidate around $6 with the push? I dropped a good amount of shares around 5.5-6. But held onto my options that exp 7.17 for the most part. I think this one could see another big day tomorrow if the market stays up.

I did. I sold half for a nice daily gain! Holding the other half to see what happens. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm always hesitant to put money in oil& gas because I work for an E&P. Figured I'm already pretty leveraged in oil and gas with my salary but this paid off.

Nice! If it falls into a lull for a couple weeks I'll be looking to scalp some 7.5 calls maybe 10 with an August or later expiration. I feel like the pattern is too predictable.

Right now all I'm holding is shares, but that sounds like a good plan after a sale off the other half.

It's crazy how quickly the S&P 500 is recovering.

Unfortunately I had a huge chunk of cash freed up from a CD in January and I put all of it into the S&P near all-time high territory, and I've been kicking myself since.

But luckily, I made sure to put more than usual in during the downturn, and now I'm finally seeing the payoff for that. I'm back in the green overall and in the green on each individual stock as well.

Just hope there's not another dip coming.
Here's the thing, if you're a long investor and are keeping this money for the long-term then DO NOT beat yourself up or regret anything. You did nothing wrong and in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, etc you'll be ever so thankful you put that money in. The best news is as things went down you just added to it. It sucks short term but long-term you'll be golden.

Look at it this way: If you invested in the S&P 500 at the market's all time peak at June 2000 you'd have more than double your money today or roughly a 4% annualized return. No that's not the return you want, about half probably.... BUT you would have earned that through the Dot.Com bubble crash immediately after investing; the 2008 Financial Crisis/Great Recession and the little blip of Spring 2020 COVID19 death plague.

Me too...got to learn to buy stocks when they announce Ch 11 bankruptcy, to make +500% in a week. Thank God for the TA pointers on here until investors start pricing assets again.

Buffet is getting his azz handed to him on airlines by Robinhood millennials. I would expect nothing less in 2020!

I tried to short it all day but couldn't get my orders filled between the halts in trading etc. I did buy a bunch of puts against CPE. And it continued to climb after hours.

Anyone here familiar with mutual funds in Fidelity? My retirement account in Fidelity is limited to mutual funds only. Any recommendations on specific funds? Projected retirement is in 10 years.

Darvas box on TWO? Bounced between 4 and 5 for weeks, now broken above 6 with next big resistance at 14ish.

Curious for a second opinion.
