Stock Market Discussion -- started 03/06/2018 -- updated daily !!!

I waited all day long yesterday and at the end of the day, there was a push higher to the $456.50 (SPY) which allowed me to jump in with those PUTS. I got a few that expire today, and a shyt load more that expire next Friday, I'll continue to pile in today probably all the way to $458ish levels before I turn and try another day.
Powell comes out today onto the playing field to discuss how he thinks things are going so we may be in for a ride today either way.

it makes sense that the "Magnificent 7" would be up the most in 2023 because they got hit the most in the 13 month swoon from late Nov 2021 through 12/31/2022.

they are the high fliers but the higher risk as well. These 7 are all NASDAQ stocks too.

it is not unusual in the last 25 years for big tech bluechips to be the biggest gainers (and losers) and to carry the stock market with them.

back in the early 2000's it was "The Four Horsemen" doing this as well and carrying the market in either direction, extremely heavily weighted.

those 4 stocks were: Microsoft, Dell, Intel and Cisco.

In fact as I ease into the chart looking this morning, I like a short play SPY for the rest of the week at $456.50. Right now the futures market shows a gap up right to resistance. I'll pile onto the play up until $457 on hourly closing candles, but then I bail out and repeat the deal at the $458.

[Slurry Pumper]

It's all interesting, I'm about taking profits before the end of the week. Still expecting a pretty sizable pullback for a week or so, but then back to being bullish into Christmas.

Elon Musk dropping G-F-Y to everyone and meme stocks and coins pumping. I wish I would’ve bought some puts and volatility before close

[homie1975]

Maybe, but not today. S&P and Nasdaq both closing in on 52-week highs.

you spoke too soon, Mate, lol

they both closed in the Red.

let's see if there is more fuel to go up another leg.

NAZZY still ~11% off the ATH from Nov 2021.

S&P still about 4-5% below the ATH of late Dec 2021

[d2bets]

Josher!

good health to you !!

EXCELLENT call on the market pivoting bullish. it happened shortly after you predicted it.

a 5% pullback would be a normal mini correction for a healthy market, correct ?

we should be rooting for it actually.

The whole market is getting overbought. Don't be surprised by a short but fast 5% pullback.

Wow, SYM has shown some upward movement.

WHAT is your fair price on SYM? What would be a cheap buy price on SYM?

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Think you're right. I've mentioned in here that I'm:
*Buying the dips on MSTR/GBTC/LITOF etc.
*Selling the peaks on some of my Vanguard holdings.
...I don't have too many individual stocks were I feel like I'm over-weighted.

Said it b4. Thanks to all for posting info in here.

SYM $32 couple weeks ago. Think I Just saw circa $58 on the scroll.

I've done everything I could except buy the shares for you. Likely near HIGH???

I may have to be prudent and take a few shares off here.

[Madison]

Sick to my stomach I sold SYM,(48.50)any value in buying now

The NATIONAL DEBT. There is one way and only one way for the GOV to bail themselves out of this mess and that is inflation or the devaluation of our currency. Imagine a balance on your CC and you only pay the minimum amount.

Turkey ... Interest rates circa 40%, Inflation circa 61%, OUCH. Can you even imagine 6-12 months goes by and your life's savings takes a 50% hair cut?

[milwaukee mike]

It effects rich people also if you are a cheap bastard like me that watches every dollar I spend. That's how you get rich by not spending but saving.

Read this thin book and it will all begin to make sense to you. This book inspired me when I read it 30 years ago.

good tip about spending vs saving... wastefully spending money has never been enjoyable to me either... that's why i could retire at 48 instead of 65, while never really making a ton

How do we feel about NVDA reporting tomorrow? Made a new ATH today. It's just been an absolute monster. The expectations are high. Let's see what happens.

Inflation is easing quickly. By next summer we might be talking about deflation.

don't beat yourself up. if you knew it would go that much higher, you would have bought more, but you did not know.

judge yourself by the decision you make at that time, not in hindsight.

had it gone down 25% or insert big number, you would have been kicking yourself right now.

Yes my friend. One must not ever miss the fact that this a marathon not a sprint.

[JIBBBY]

high gas and grocery store prices only affect poor people. i thought you were rich?

go to costco, it's 4.50 a gallon here in socal. cheap.

Wishful thinking D2, I'll believe it when I see it when going to the grocery store and gas pumps under this Biden Administration.

All Democrats want to do is keep printing money and keep spending which drives up inflation.

Well apparently there’s strange objects flying into US that are likely hypersonic missiles or aliens landing exactly at the same moment Pooh bear comes to visit. So either US or China is flexing or the US & China are meeting to figure out how to stop the invasion lol

there were some interesting candles printed on Spy & other indices I’d say are reversal’ish but let’s see

[Madison]

Down 30% overnight to $21. I have traded this guy when it was circa $50. I thought quite highly of the company but the price was an aberration. Thinking of dipping back in at the open.

Anyone have any thoughts here?

I would have thought the stock market would have tanked by now in this inflation economy. NOT THE CASE!

Thx again to guys like Madison. I'm always looking for critical thinking.

Madison, I've been doing the same thing we discussed:
1) Slowly di-vesting some of the Index Funds and tech-stocks.
2) Buying the dip on MSTR/GBTC and a few metal stocks.

Looking at the screen today: Giddyup.

GBTC ripping today. +8%.

Also, hope someone out there took my Lithium suggestion a week or so ago ... ALB for one.
