I see something about $0.08 today, but you're basically at the bottom (so far) . . . <evil laugh> I may end up at .08 after VRX and T today. VRX shot up to 27.79 while I was eating an early lunch with a client and I couldn't get to my computer in time before it fell back below 27. Cost me a lot of $$. But, I still have time.
June 13, 20187 yr 27 minutes ago, Trey3216 said: Yeah, I went overboard, but TWTR and VRX have treated me well the past 2 weeks. I figured I may as well try the magic in other name. I think this tank is way overdone right now on T. I also think they will try to get the deal finalized by friday, and we'll see it drift back towards yesterday's closing price. Then we'll have a real T party i bought TWTR at $16.8574. would that i had had the cash to buy more. it's up 137%.

June 13, 20187 yr On the bright side, CVS and a number of others riding the tailwinds of the T decision.

June 14, 20187 yr Not trading advice . . . but the Greeks are real. As expiry approaches, T below $33 is going to drive those $33 calls to $0.00 (delta = 0) and T above $33 is going to drive them to pure intrinsic (delta = 1). Expiry is tomorrow. Personally, I'm looking to see if this little run today might have some gas in the tank, but I will probably exit before end of day. All extrinsic value at the close will probably evaporate overnight. I'd rather take small profits than watch them go "poof" just because T decided not to run tomorrow.

I held them because they were portions of house money. Wish I had sold them at 11am when T reached 32.90's. But oh well. Maybe they'll finalize the deal this evening or before the bell and we'll run a bit tomorrow. TWTR is an absolute animal right now.
June 14, 20187 yr Eh, I got distracted and didn't dump 'em. I did set a limit but it didn't quite get hit. It won't take a huge pop tomorrow for them to go in the money, but I'm considering them worthless at this point.

June 14, 20187 yr DOJ won't appeal. Closing deal early. Hopefully tonight or before bell we'll get news. Shares rising AH in heavy trading. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/14/doj-wont-appeal-att-ruling-company-to-close-time-warner-deal-shortly.html Edited June 14, 20187 yr by Trey3216
June 15, 20187 yr Serious question. Trump threw down another $50B worth of tariffs on the Chinese tonight. We're in a legitimate trade war at this point. Why hasn't the market priced this in? Are they missing it like they've missed so many other things over the years? I just keep seeing predictions of endless increases at this point and that aways makes me pause.

I know there are others, though, and it's hard to keep track. I know there is a LOT of uncertainty right now in the industry and I can't help but to think it's a major unknown combined with the ensuing inflation that could happen due to this and a few other factors. I'm just wondering why the risk isn't priced in.
June 15, 20187 yr And reading it further, it’s a 25% tariff on $50bn worth of goods So, not $50bn in tariffs.

I find many times the media hysteria over what will happen is a lot greater then then what the market thinks will happen. The market is usually closer to the truth then the media.

June 15, 20187 yr Dammit, I've missed 2 peaks in a row. I'm just gonna sit here and watch. Scratch that, I'm gonna put in a limit order for $.24 and hope it gets hit.
June 16, 20187 yr Well, I fucked that up proper. Bought at $0.14, ended up selling at $0.04 because I didn't want to exercise. Not a bad tip, I just played it all kinds of wrong.
