Elon's doing a TEDTalk right now. Said there is a Plan B for Twitter if they don't accept his offer. Won't expand on that.


Hopefully Musk dumps TWTR shares and teams up with Nunes or starts his own. Would be awesome if TWTR never sees $50 again.

This reminds of when Vanderbilt held the control of the Harlem railroad (??), and his opponents tried to short it to bankrupt him, but he owned so much, he basically crushed them with their borrowing premium. Vanderbilt was one step ahead!

I think this is chronicled in the Gilded Age show.
great story and comparison! A man with Musk's wealth and smarts knows their move before it even happens. Somebody make some popcorn!
just added the 2nd image, love it!

When someone said he was playing next level chess, I'm starting to realize Musk's brilliance. Admittedly, I have been slow to come around on him, but he genuinely seems to have the interest of retail at least in mind (I'm sure he is his own first priority capitalism dictates he should be!).

He has given the people plenty of opportunities to capitalize on his moves. He announced if he should sell TSLA stock, and he sold a load. Price went down lol. He gave everyone forewarning. I'm slowly warming to the guy.

Don't think he cares about retail but he does care about protecting the truth. Ultimately he wants the Twitter ceo gone.

AustinAg needs to do three things:
1. Drink more.
2. Tell more stories he promised.
3. Tell me where to put my money (if Carlos Slim is good enough for him….he can help me. I'm no whale. I'm plankton.).

They outbid everyone in order to monopolize the fcc licenses in order to essentially charge carriers to use their licenses so they could "own" the networks without having to build the network. Ended in bankruptcy because they bought so many right ?

It's an indicator I got from the Twitter user "don't fade me". It's pretty good at support / resistance levels.

I don't think you should move to a different thread. It's after trading hours, so we might as well have something to read about here. Besides, these poor *******s have to put up with hundreds of my crappy posts. They can handle a few of yours.

I googled and read about Nextwave on wiki. So basically they won a bid for licenses and paid 10% down, then they defaulted on their payments and filed for bankruptcy protection, then the licenses were sold to AT&T for $17 billion, but somehow Nextwave was awarded the licenses back? AT&T then waited for Nextwave to fail and bought the whole company and the licenses for $600 million, roughly 3.5% of the price they were willing to pay for the licenses? If that is correct I have no idea how many of that could happen.

I asked about this awhile back and searched it out. I haven't really used it though, just thought the name was interesting.

It's a good visual representation to use with other factors.

If someone is having a hard time this year, it means they are still trying to press the growth trade into rising rates.

The bullish trade in Q1 has been the inflation trade - xle & xlv components. DE, DLTR, fertilizers, etc…

Possibly. Stagflation is a real threat in the near future. The Fed still has one monetary policy trick left which is YCC and I can even see the fiscal policy trick of UBI, if inflation doesn't subside.

Guilty as charged. For whatever reason I'm finding it twice as difficult to trade bearish. Not sure id that's just being new or psychological. Harder for me to pull the trigger on those trades but I'm going to have to learn that sooner than later

yeah I don't get this. More disposable income dollars would serve to drive prices even higher. We don't have an income wage issue, we have a production issue.

Way out of my depth here but maybe "fiscal policy trick" of UBI is the cost of everything going up doesn't matter if you're given more money to pay for it. Keeping pace with inflation rather than fighting it.

ETA: government could subsidize (increase subsidies?) american production or manufacturing in tandem

I think we already have a wage/price spiral happening (people demanding higher wages in response to higher expenses, making costs go up for employers, resulting in higher prices that increases demand for higher wages).

With UBI, I assume that even fewer people would be willing to work, resulting it less production (and higher prices due to lack of supply) and increased difficulty in finding workers, resulting in higher wages and again higher prices. And the more UBI you throw at it, the faster that accelerates.
