Every stock I own has been red each of the last two days.

EVERY... FUCKING... ONE.

that's why you need to buy options - those will take you from red to a deep red/purple at least twice as fast

OSTK now only +5%, instead of +17% during the day.  I smell a buying opp.

Managed to eek out a few green stocks by end of the day.  $SLB, $FTK, and even fucktarded $ALPP finished positive.

Go me.

Last-ditch negotiations at the US Congress to forge another stimulus package for the coronavirus-ravaged economy have collapsed in stalemate.

Democrats and Republicans remain at odds over everything from unemployment benefits to financial aid for schools to cash injections for states' coffers.

The US unemployment rate stands at 10.2%, higher than any level during the 2008 financial crisis.

Jobless benefits have expired, as has a federal moratorium on evictions.

Calling all stats folks.  Is he correct about the percentage decline?  I think we all know we do not have a balanced recovery in the market.

Using this link (https://www.slickcharts.com/sp500) and excel, the bottom 400 stocks seem to account for 30% of the weight of the S&P.

Academically speaking, how are these stocks continuing to increase in value? Is it solely coming from BRRRRRT now? Consumer spending is shrinking like crazy, enterprise/business spending is either frozen at current levels or falling, and GDP shrunk by a third last quarter.

Is it really that current stock values are solely being pinned by the efforts of the fed? Because if so, that golden goose is gonna run outta eggs eventually. JPow can't just keep buying up corporate bonds because then it's just state-sponsored capitalism, not actual free market capitalism.

Former McDonald's CEO getting sued for his $40M severance package.  Was playing around with three different employees and gave one a large block of stock grants.  All of this was on his company phone that he was using to send noodz.

Does anyone know how to be discreet anymore?  Don't ever merge your work and personal phone and always pay with cash.

I don’t think it’s just the fed. The well off are doing fine through COVID (so far), just chilling and working from home. But they’re not out taking vacations, buying cars or big ticket items, etc. Gotta do someone with all that money piling up. Interest rates are garbage so no point in saving. Hence, buy equities.

I get the market-side of that, but that's driving the underlying value in the equities? Bank profits are down, business revenue is down (aggregate across the economy), consumer spending is down. Just because people pay more for something doesn't intrinsically make it worth more - that's why bubbles happen

No disagreement from me there. I think the price of stocks is pretty much divorced from any "underlying value" right now. Seems like most on this thread would agree. What's the old saying though - "the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" or something like that?

What's interesting is that it appears to me that the market right now will grab on to any sliver of positive news. Company X was expected to lose $2 bn this quarter, but only lost $1.6 bn? Buy Company X!!! I'm far from an expert on this shit but that feels like another classic bubble behavior to me.

WORK has caught full blown AIDS, so even when there is a big market movement upward my total still goes down.

I gtfo’d when their earnings day valuation tanked and plan to stay out of it, esp when I saw them publicly bitch about msft

What we need is a complete and full economic recovery so that the stock market will crash worse than 1929.

I've actually been thinking about moving some money back in, and the Do the Opposite of Tokamak (TM) strategy is basically guaranteed money. So my advice is to mortgage your house for puts.

Hope is a powerful drug. Airlines seemed to perk up because the number of airport security checks was released today and about 10X higher than the low point in March. Never mind that they are still 70% below where they were a year ago.

There is nothing worse the realizing that I've bought options while drunk, and I'm sure it was a great idea when I pushed that "Place this Trade" button. YOLO

DOW set to open in 27900s, SP 3370s, NAS over 11k.
