If the rest of the country is like my neighborhood in Austin, I think rent and housing will be down on the next CPI. My neighbor lost his renters when he tried to hike their rent 30%. He tried to find new tenets for 6 weeks before giving up and listing it for sale. Sat on the market for a month and now he's given up and it's just sitting empty.BlueTaze said:
Next CPI is July 13 where we see if June expectations came down. If we are near 3500 by then I'm going full bore on risk asset calls out to Q1 2023.
I'm covering my SEAS short this week.
It’s official. Tier two of Four is in! Some want some intermediate guidance. I trade for a living. But invest long term like those that don’t that trade for a living. I’m 49. My son is 13. So timeframe matters. I need to use the market’s to prepare for the future pic.twitter.com/pBMdiWxQjh

Forgot tomorrow was OPEX. I'll be around in the morning just in case we get fireworks. I read that there's over $3T in options expiring tomorrow.Triple_Bagger said:I expect a low volume, flat day tomorrow. Going for a bike ride in the morning.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:

Homes in my neighborhood were being bought same day they were listed last year and prices were up 50% over the previous year. Now there's 5 vacant houses in a neighborhood with 74 homes.

The IEA issued a warning for global oil markets Wednesday, saying supply challenges will persist.
Three million barrels per day of Russian crude will disappear as sanctions set in, the IEA predicts.
"Severely restricted refining capacity is causing markets to price in long-term supply deficits in key refined products," the report said.
The current turmoil across energy markets is set to worsen in 2023, as OPEC+ will face severe supply challenges while fuel prices will stay high, the International Energy Agency warned in its first forecast for next year.
The Paris-based think tank said Wednesday that global oil supplies will "struggle" to keep up with rising demand.
In particular, it highlighted that Russian barrels will disappear from this year's market at a rate of 3 million barrels per day as more sanctions set in. That result in overall OPEC+ production falling by 520,000 barrels per day next year.
"OPEC+ would have to further tap into its dwindling capacity cushion, reducing it to historic lows," the IEA said in its report.
Over recent months, oil prices have skyrocketed thanks to dwindling stockpiles and repercussions from Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In March, the price of Brent crude briefly hit $139 a barrel. It's hovering near $120 Wednesday.
US gas prices, too, have surged, recently breaking the $5-a-gallon threshold for the first time ever. And the IEA warned prices will stay high for a while as refineries live "hand-to-mouth" amid low crude and product inventories.
"Severely restricted refining capacity is causing markets to price in long-term supply deficits in key refined products," the agency said. "This translates into a structurally elevated product price outlook."
The number of Russell 3000 companies, excluding financial firms, trading below cash has surpassed the month-end record set during the global financial crisis https://t.co/qcEHVSu4Fd pic.twitter.com/ybacWErmQ4

Yeah, only 3.4 trillion in options expiring tomorrow before a three day weekend. Tomorrow will likely be very trappy.Triple_Bagger said:I expect a low volume, flat day tomorrow. Going for a bike ride in the morning.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:

Good thought here. If any move up I'm thinking slapped back down. I'm still eyeballing 345-354...ish to dig in.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:

My advice is to not get too focused on specific numbers and levels and run the risk of not participating in a reversal because it didn't hit your targeted level. I've done that in the past and it hurts. The markets are so oversold and great companies are on sale. You might consider nibbling at leaders that you believe at a discount. You'd still have some dry powder and you'll never pick the bottom but it's better than not participate because you're waiting to fire all cannons at a certain level. Trust me, the pain of riding the market down is only compounded if you're all in cash and at least not in the reversal.SF2004 said:

Also more post like "we have to reach 273 for 274 and 275 to be in play"... well no *****
We need $30K and more FJ!

Might be onto something. I'd probably be close to ATM or so. Not too far OTM if above.ProgN said:I've been nibbling on LEAPS during this downdraft on some of the leaders.

Apparently they had to do some work for a little while
One month ago I sold XOM 1/19/24 $90 CC's @ $15. During the XOM run a few days ago I know they got as high as $21, or maybe higher but I didn't check the contract high. They are back to just above $15. I thought about buying them back and laying them off in another run up. Maybe I'll just let these rest and sell more later.FJ43 said:Good thought here.
