Anyways, if I was on the big boy contract instead of micro, that's $20 per point....but as it stands 2 micros means $4/pt

If we have a nice market pullback in the next 45 to 60 days I believe I'm taking my cash and going into PDI and JNJ.

PDI - PIMCO Dynamic Income Fund has a monthly distribution payout of $0.22 per ~$25.00 share (52W Range ~$24.50 to ~$29.50) and paid monthly $0.22 since beginning of 2018.

JNJ wants to split their company into 2 stock trading companies by the end of 2023. I think there's money to be made if the market gives us a share price pullback.

(I don't care for baby power with corn starch and the talc version is hard to find because of lawsuits. I think I have enough talc for my remaining life. Your feet just slip into boots a lot easier, IMO)

Side Note: SAVA got a flu or skin disease tonight, yikes..
is this currently not a pullback? lol, just busting your chops

scenarios that make the most sense to me: We reverse trend here soon at or around 200 day, then could see SPX 5k by April...then you get your big pullback to under 4k, maybe even 3500.

then QE and negative rates in 2023 and 6k+.

The better scenario would be a deep red open and close the day green. We really need that type of capitulation from retail investors to signal a bottom. If we hold and open green, I'd bet on the side of red close. I hope I'm wrong.

Mornun!

Mixed bag out there.

US green but traded lower overnight.
EU well...just red
Asia mixed

And VIX over 23 touching 23.74



Some SPY levels I see with blurry eyes...



I would think we chop sideways into end of the week close. Maybe little lower yet and the 200 still being a ways down at 439.20ish.

No sense fighting it until 'they' decide....



Trade wisely!

Read something interesting this morning…I woke up in middle of night and went to Reddit for some humor.

One guy there was discussing about the times the 50 day MA crossed the 200 day MA on VIX, there is a massive spike in the VIX. It's certainly food for thought and it's close now.

There's a lot floating around about volatility and liquidity issues this coming Monday. Cem Karsan alluded to it in a TWTR post before Xmas. Maybe a Hail Mary VIX call over the weekend.

Anyway, good luck today everyone.

Interesting post Doc. Went and took a quick look and that could be fun.

I'll play.......probably out to Feb 1 vs. the Jan 25 expiry for me. Will see if we get any dip on VIX between today and tomorrow for some lottos.

Looks like major money moved yesterday and day before on a 4700/4800 bull call spread…..like $18.8B notional exposure.


Maybe bottom is in or close, and then go time.

Hard to make sense of this here though….OA (and my level) have below 455 as a bearish trend. So we are gonna quickly reverse out of this and move back to 4700-4800?

I'm just gonna trade price action. I broke my own recent rule of holding a SPY option overnight. Gotta break that habit. Too much uncertainty it seems.

It pains me to think about it but buying 10,000 shrs of SIG and CZR when they were both $5/shr in 2020, would've created life changing wealth.

AMD, cut to neutral PT lowered to $130.

Good news is that means we're getting real close to a market bottom when bs like this starts to happen.

Thursday Macros.....

China Cuts Prime Rate...ECB's Lagarde Stands Firm Against Hikes...Treas Rally

Equities are better this morning, but nowhere near the losses of yesterday... Treasuries are higher after rallying and reversing yesterday... It feels like the high yield prints of 1.69 5 years and 1.90 10 years may be it until the Fed meeting next week... The short base is very extended, and while we still see 2% 10 years this quarter, there is room for a 10-15 basis move lower in yield... Somewhat of a trap for those that got short in the last few days... Jury is out.

China reduced their prime rate today and gave indications they will continue to ease gradually.. That was the catalyst for the Hang Seng to rally 3.42%. We also saw a "record breaking rally" in Chinese Property bonds yesterday that somewhat petered out today. There was some confusion over a plan to allow developers greater access to funds from presold homes... Not clear if China is coming to the rescue of property developers.

Equities overnight were in a 40 point range for the S+P... We are 25 points off the lows and 15 points off the highs... Equities remain in corrective mode with the Nasdaq and Russell 2000 in trouble... We still see a correction across the board... We gave a talk to NY students last night on the markets with an old friend who is a professor at NYU...We think we scared some of the participants with our view on rates, the Fed , and equity markets... That was not our intention... Inflation is real and the Fed is way behind... We find tremendous irony in the ECB Lagarde's statement that there is no reason to follow the Fed in raising rates and that inflation will subside... Yes it will reverse, but we think years not days... We follow Germany as that is the largest of the European economies... While Lagarde was talking dovish, GERMAN PPI CAME OUT THIS MORNING UP 24.3% YOY, 5 FULL POINTS ABOVE EXPECTATIONS... So rates are going higher...

We have seen bear markets in bonds and hawkish Federal Reserves over many cycles... It is not unusual to have bear market rallies as too many shorts get to the port side of the trade... We are there now... While we think the Fed will accelerate tapering next week, we think they will not be as bearish in their outlook as the market is anticipating... And ultimately, with 4 rate raises priced in and many looking for 2-3 more, we are still sticking with 3-4 as our outlook...Those that read our view will see consistency in our outlook... For today we can see 10 years in a 1.80-1.90 range... Could break to 1.75 with some short covering...

Yeah, it's never a positive situation when the VIX performs a 'golden cross', while stocks are simultaneously putting in 'death crosses'.

Truth. Lots of companies are probably due downgrades, but AMD is about as low on the list as you can get.

Nice little writeup there. Makes me have some hope for the Friday SPY 460c's I bought at close. They don't matter in the grand scheme, but who doesn't like a happy ending?

potential 2.5-3pt gap up at open.....

I'm taking this AMD downgrade as a gift and will be adding some here. As 59South said, there are lots of companies that are way overvalued out there, but I don't think AMD is one of them. Neither is NVDA.

They're fun to short on the weekly here lately but the long term is great

I think the easiest trade right now is long precious metal stocks. I've been long KL the past week or so. Finally saw movement on calls I've held yesterday, but the potential move is just starting

Also new short idea - DKS. Chart was making the rounds on twitter yesterday evening

I think there were at least a handful of us that accumulated five figures shares of NIO a couple of years ago when it was in the $2-5 range. In hindsight there were so many opportunities for long term accumulation from Q4 2018 to Q1/2 2020. Heck, you could be 3-4x just buying the biggest company in the world!

Side note, AAPL is very very extended on the weekly and monthly long term charts. Throughout this long running bull market, it has reconnected every 2-4 years with the 50 month SMA and 200 week SMA. Those are both <$90 right now but rising. If you zoom out the technicals say it is due for a correction to the mean which is around $100. That would carry SPX down to a 20+% correction. Decent chance that happens this year. But there is a very plausible scenario where the crazy (and perceived "safe") money made in AAPL/SPX now just rotates back to growth/momentum that has been hit with 50+% draw downs over the past year. Musical chairs....

Pardon my bit of rambling on there... carry on.
If this post is on the B&I forum, lighten up it's just money!
