Not markets but wanted to share with this group
Just wired money to take my first equity stake in a business thanks in part to the money ive made in the market from the knowledge and insight on this board

Love it.

This board helped me cover all the mistakes I made when I was totally clueless at the beginning! Love the community here.....everyone is so damn humble....and the biggest guns on here are the most humble.


That's the truth. This thread and the big guns on here helped me go from just trying to make 5k or so to buy some new furniture and learn to making 50k in the last year to put a down payment on a house build
Crazy you brought up the house thing....just closed on a new one last week and the confidence I have to do both these moves is partly from learnings of this board
And the freaking joy in my 2 little girls eyes when I got to tell them they both get to have there own rooms was priceless

Love it. Now let's get WWR to 20 and ELOX to 5 or 6 and I'll be deciding if I wanna pay this new build off or not

I don't think I've ever read a post on TexAgs that contained so much truth, ever.

Great stories guys (and gals)



Not to be a buzz kill, but I have a completely unrelated tax question. As an example, lets say back in Jan '21 I sold July '21 puts. In July '21 I get assigned the shares and then sell the shares in Feb '22.

Will that be considered long-term (since the trade actually started in Jan '21 and held for 13mo) or short-term (since I only held the shares for 7mo) gains??

Put Options
Put options receive a similar treatment. If a put is exercised and the buyer owned the underlying securities, the put's premium and commissions are added to the cost basis of the shares. This sum is then subtracted from the shares' selling price. The position's elapsed time begins from when the shares were originally purchased to when the put was exercised (i.e., when the shares were sold).

If a put is exercised without prior ownership of the underlying stock, similar tax rules to a short sale apply. The time period starts from the exercise date and ends with the closing or covering of the position.

My take away is that the holding period starts the day after you acquire the shares, so in my example above it'd be short-term gains.

That was unfortunately my suspicion, but hoping I was wrong.

Netflix - I'm in the office so looking quickly while I have 3 minutes before next meeting.

Look for retrace to 525/530 area. probably safe long. Cut below 505.

you guys are too kind. I think every day about hanging it up. Trouble is two fold: 1) I am extraordinarily blessed with a rewarding and enjoyable career. It's part of my identity. 2) Concerned I will lose my edge if I do

If anyone that follows this thread has an account at Cantor Fitzgerald please do me a favor.

Contact the SAVA analyst from last week that brought it down and verbally break your foot off in his ass.
