It's stimulus negating talk. If SPY breaks 336, 332 may be on deck.

any good OSTK plays? looks like it's been coiling/converging all month
I bought back my covered calls if that says anything on what I think. You may be able to get away with selling premium / condors in the near-term.

I'm bullish on it. I want to see it show relative strength when the market flushes next week as an entry.
30,000 are you holding OSTK or the OSTKO shares? This is one I haven't had on my radar but remember discussion on the thread about OSTKO as well.
Same as 30k, only I'm holding a lot less OSTK shares I bet, lol...enough to sell covered calls on though! I'm holding out on selling those though until it pops.

Agree 110%, super bullish consolidation. Very soon it should rocket.
Thanks guys for the feedback. Joined the party on OSTK in my IRA account. Just bought the dip here today at high 72s.

It is now free to climb.

I think they'll have an agreement by tomorrow. I think the Republicans will come up to the $2 to $2.2 trillion range (as crazy as that is) and the Democrats will agree to remove another 50% or more of funds for states and local governments. They've taken off half of the original amount but they are still more than what is projected to he needed over the next 24 months. They'll end up beefing up relief for some union-heavy industries to make up the difference. Again I think this is excessive brinkmanship on both sides but neither seriously wants tomorrow to happen without an agreement.

I could he completely wrong here

They're holding the stimulus up because they want to bailout progressive states.

Board thoughts on selling an OSTK put for this week, and then selling a covered call out to December for 90?

Could sell a 75P for 4.00 which would give a 71$ entry. Then sell the CC for 10.0 giving a stagnant return rate of 14% over the next couple months. Also room to profit up to a 19 point run to the strike.

That makes no sense. Trump wins votes when people look at their 401ks the last 4 years. I think Prog is closer. They're holding up to get something specific that will help them win votes.

What happens tomorrow with no agreement? More bickering to try to utterly defeat the other side without giving anything your side wants?

The unfunded liabilities for CA, IL, NY, NJ are off the charts due to government employee pensions. The dems want to make these states whole and prevent them from having to make the tough decisions. They're using this crisis to get that money.

What sectors pop the most when a massive stimulus eventually gets passed? Assume the middle class and definitely upper middle class won't receive anything, so need to think only the poor. lower middle class, wealthy and mega corporations get significant infusions to spend.

I think all boats rise with the tide. But in particular, airlines, cruises, hotels, and Disney, if I had to guess.

I feel that places like HD and Lowes may be capped out as people already knocked out most of their DIY level stuff during the coronacation that many people took. Could be wrong, I guess there is always something breaking.

I am in WMT despite not personally shopping there. I wonder how much improvement they (and TGT) saw during the first round of free money, and whether that impact will be repeated now that more places are open for business.

Are they giving airlines and cruise lines additional targeted bailout money? Not a bad investment if that's the idea again.

Not sure about cruises, but airlines for sure.

But even just with the lower class getting free money checks, you have to think a lot of people start booking vacations with that money.

I agree with Prog on holding out for blue state bailout cash. But at this point, wouldn't be surprised if GOP agrees to make sure something is delivered before election. But also wouldn't be surprised is Pelosi/Schumer keep moving goal posts or GOP holds out.

Yeah. There's some crazy politics going on with that one. There's plenty of red states that have unfunded pensions too. Just seems to easy to go tit for tat on that one. My guess is more green new deal like dems wanted in the first one.

Sorry if this is too much politics talk. Someone tell me if my ostk post is viable or not.

Great idea, especially in this market. Even if we pull back more, I think OSTK will be one of the stronger names. You might get called out before December, but it's well worth the risk and you can always buy back in on a dip. Credit Suisse and B of A got in at $84, so I think north of there is a pretty safe bet.

I went in and out lightning quick to keep a few shares net free. I hear people saying this is a long term major growth keeper.
Just picked up PLTR. Reset lower alerts when it went off and decided to add some into my positions. Dropped off pretty quick the past 30 minutes or so.
