Lots of put delta expiring tomorrow with August opex. That in addition to VIX dropping to where it has should be bullish.
Feel free to read my previous posts on banks and rates. You can search my posting history. I've had a lot over the past months.LMCane said:Heineken-Ashi said:
Between now and next week we might be in "short the banking sector" territory.
Why?
rates falling should be bullish for the larger banks
even with the KBR taking it in the shorts over commercial loans defaulting

I had an almost 6% total net worth gain today. Biggest percentage day in a long time. I may go buy a whole carton of eggs on the way home.
So is most of your net worth in SMCI??Bob Knights Paper Hands said:

I'm not calling my shot, but if the macros cooperate and POWL prints $186+ it has the potential to trap the shorts and explode higher. That said, the shorts will go all in to try to keep that from happening. It's going to be a battle, that I am confident of.Quote:
Currently back to 90 percent cash, and only holding SMCI. Will buy more on a dip. Will also buy back into POWL if drops under 160 again. Schwwwwwing.
I'm going to remain neither and just come to your house with a tub of popcorn and watch.ProgN said:I'm not calling my shot, but if the macros cooperate and POWL prints $186+ it has the potential to trap the shorts and explode higher.

Get your popcorn ready.
If the shorts get trapped and squeezed, I prefer the company of my sexy FWB. I know that you understand. Hot woman vs. buddy with popcorn. I'm going with option 1.Heineken-Ashi said:I'm going to remain neither and just come to your house with a tub of popcorn and watch.ProgN said:I'm not calling my shot, but if the macros cooperate and POWL prints $186+ it has the potential to trap the shorts and explode higher.

CEO's 10b5-1 probably triggered again today. Hopefully he turns that off.ProgN said:I'm not calling my shot, but if the macros cooperate and POWL prints $186+ it has the potential to trap the shorts and explode higher.

His sells are pre-programmed and only 2750 shares. He did the same last qtr, even the exact amount. It's a rounding error compared to amount of shares that he still owns.bigtoneag said:CEO's 10b5-1 probably triggered again today.

Speaking of 1, I have no idea why Rule #1 has been blatantly ignored. Just because you put stocks into a sausage grinder and churn out the major runners doesn't give you a free pass.ProgN said:Heineken-Ashi said:ProgN said:
