April 18, 20187 yr Kinda dumb methodology if you ask me. The 0.60 in VOO is WMT. I wouldn't consider WMT a gun stock.
April 18, 20187 yr And LOL at objecting to the 2% in ITA, when the fund is 3-4 fold heavier on the people who make fucking cruise missles.
April 19, 20187 yr Can someone smarter than me figure out why homebuilders are shitting the bed right now?
April 19, 20187 yr Any of you still follow HMNY (Movie Pass majority owner)? The a falling like a rock today, with the pricing of a $30 million offering, at $2.75/unit (an unit being 1 common share & warrants to buy additional shares). Price yesterday closed at $3.83, today it is trading at $2.32.
April 24, 20187 yr 2 hours ago, Anastasis said: So wtf happened to KO today? They had a good read out, no? The beat was priced in? Run-up in pre-market because of lower liquidity, followed by a profit-taking selloff at the bell? The fact that it's an established stock with minimal growth, resulting in a range-bound trading pattern? Take your pick. N.B. I generally have no idea what I'm talking about and am probably making things up.

April 24, 20187 yr 34 minutes ago, Anastasis said: Yesterday at close was a really awesome time to close a short position in nflx. Yeah, I bought call options on TWTR and SQ (TWTR earnings tomorrow pre-market) around lunch thinking the worst may be over for the day. Could've got in much cheaper.
April 26, 20187 yr 26 minutes ago, SDG said: T (att) shitting the bed after earnings last night... You want that dividend yield. You need that dividend yield. Almost 6% after this drop. That's twice the 10 yr plus upside.

April 26, 20187 yr 4 minutes ago, Anastasis said: I am weak, added a piece. It may be a rough ride for a bit, but I'd buy it down as well and make sure dividends are re-invested. Keep piling up shares that continue to pay you.
April 26, 20187 yr AMZN going ham after hours. Announced EPS of $3.27 vs. $1.27 estimate. Stock is up ~$150 on the day. Bezos net worth just increased by another $9B in the last hour or so.
May 2, 20187 yr 51 minutes ago, SDG said: There was discussion of FTR on the old board. Looks to be having quite the day. An erstwhile dividend trap dumpster fire that now is just a dumpster fire. Still further from its 52-week high than its low. I guess if you were stupid enough to recently buy into a stock that went to a 1:15 reverse split less than a year ago, you're having quite the day.
May 3, 20187 yr My portfolio hasn't completely shit the bed, but BA is definitely leading that charge. VOD and a technology mutual fund are my only decent prrformers. My pot stock is starting to come around as well, but that won't last until Canada legalizes.
May 3, 20187 yr do Tesla shareholders revolt after Musk’s comments yesterday? Edited May 3, 20187 yr by SDG

I don't know much about the market, but I know about telecoms and Frontier is the worst telecom I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with. They are a shit company. They bought Texas from Verizon and are going to ride Verizon's old copper in to the ground. They don't care about improving the network or even fixing it when things break.

May 3, 20187 yr 52 minutes ago, SDG said: do Tesla shareholders revolt after Musk’s comments yesterday? not sure what he was thinking. i've listened to countless investor calls, and 99% of the time they are boring as fuck and very scripted. going off like that doesn't indicate a sober, stable chief executive. i know the guy has an edge, but wow.
May 9, 20187 yr 20 minutes ago, SDG said: HMNY down 31% after-hours... You know what they say about an offer that's too good to be true....

Yes. My brother went to work for GTE right out of UT and has been with Verizon since that buyout. Since he was one of the few people left at Verizon who knew those old systems he ended up helping set up the transfer.

May 10, 20187 yr 5 hours ago, Trey3216 said: And it's flat again. Down 20% into the close. I toyed with the idea of throwing some play money at it to ride it down to zero, but didn't pull the trigger.

Take that play money and buy your wife something nice. Going in on that stock is equivalent to lighting it on fire. The movie pass idea is nice but this group never got the grasp of a sustainable model and it was apparent a long time ago. Maybe the next group that tries it will do some financial math first.

To be clear, I was considering a short, but Schwab tells me that it is too hard to borrow.

May 11, 20187 yr 30 minutes ago, Anastasis said: so that was a crazy few minutes for healthcare portfolios. I'm still extraordinarily long VRX and VRX calls. I"m liking it.
May 18, 20187 yr Canadian pot stocks finally making their run prior to rec legalisation. The one I'm in, Canopy, made an announcement to list on the NYSE by the end of the month. Been a good week.

One is still below when I bought in by a couple quarters but I'm in it for the long haul.
