Stock Market is the bottom in?

I bought 100 $93 TLT calls for April 15th expiration right before close yesterday. Was somewhat stunned by the cease fire. It’s a $200 bet on a market getting spooked and stuffed back into bonds like the covid crash. It’s good thru Wednesday next week.

Should be a banner day for metals the way it looks.

Loaded up on some T as long as they are suffering from "panic reports about their future". I believe it to be nothing more than a smear campaign. Time will tell

I sold everything a few minutes ago while it was up nicely. I don’t have much in there. Just a play account. But there’s almost zero chance this deal holds. Iranians arent exactly knows as being trustworthy. I’ll buy again when it goes down 2000 points next week

Never a bad time to take profits. It seems like the cease fire is already on thin ice, more whipsaw markets ahead I'm sure.

Probably a smart move sir. Hype drives the market and everything seems to over react.

That's my hope, retire at 58. 8 more years

LOL I read that as retire in 58.8 more years. Ya that's the path I'm on at the moment. Haha

You're not alone. Seems like an impossible goal at this point. There's always the lottery. Haven't bought a ticket in over 20 years. If I had the winning number I'd probably lose the damn ticket anyway.

I don't bother with Megamillions or Powerball. But if the Cash5 or Match6 gets over a million I'll buy a ticket. 1.6 is what I feel is the magic number for me though. Wouldn't be able to retire but I could at least quit doing what I'm doing.

Imagine how many "friends" a guy would have after winning the lottery? Probably have to move in the middle of the night immediately. jmo

1.6 total or 1.6 after giving half to the government?

State lottery grand prizes are easier to get than the million dollar 2nd prize on the big lotteries. I've played for years. When works sucks, spending 2 dollars for a daydream isn't a horrible return.

Anybody digging into tech? Feel ok buying some more amazon. Sold my palantir last week. Tesla's got alot of dreams some came true already, 300:1 P/Eis nutty. Megachip, megatron the robot, and mega rockets.

Bought some UNH this week. Doing hitachi homework on nukes. They're buying back stocks, about 10 million in january.

I wouldn't tell anyone. And I would put everything I bought into a series of trusts and LLCs so nothing could trace back to me. Then I would just pretend like my stocks hit big every now and then so I could splash out some cash for dinners out and vacations for family and friends.
