    Greenspan on CNN

    He wants to be out of the loop when the blame for all of this is laid. Years ago administrations and Congress used to have debate over "guns or butter"... money for defense or social programs... how much of the budget was to go to each. Then Reagan came along with notion, "we can have both...

    Tesla Included In SP500?

    That's part of the dynamic. When the world gets over its love affair with Tesla (not-all-that-great quality cars, not all that cost-efficient to run them*, not all that great environmentally beneficial, not all that great value for what they cost... and at sky-high valuation/price of the...

    Tesla Included In SP500?

    Could mark a big market top. Such a "monumental event" thingy has happened before. Remember AOL & Time Warner? FWIW...

    COVID vaccination choice - a poll

    Ditto. Besides, I don't trust the government to "not do me harm" and not even "to kill me off"... they have a financial incentive to kill off all the older people so to eliminate the expense of their health care. Sad thing to say, don't you think? (Of course it's not going to be "take a...

    Never sold Naked Puts until Friday accidentally. IBKR Question.

    Both you and Sailor are correct... as far as it goes. Like in the situation of one or a small number of stocks where your capital account is sufficient to handle any adversity they might suffer. But in the scenario where the option player gets "bigger enough"... doesn't even have to be...

    Never sold Naked Puts until Friday accidentally. IBKR Question.

    Not at all. With covered calls your "risk" is that you miss out on capital gains above the strike price in exchange for the premium you collect. With naked puts, your risk... while not unlimited.... is still very high should the stock have a catastrophic decline. I'm not an option expert by...

    Never sold Naked Puts until Friday accidentally. IBKR Question.

    1. Leverage. You can normally make only a small amount on a naked put, so traders often go overboard on the size of their play... waaaayyyy overboard. 2. Let's say you have a stock portfolio and you write puts "conservatively" with notional value only equal to your portfolio value. Then...

    Dems "declared victor" via massive fraud, but THIS is the direction of our future

    :...Democrats are the party of government and Republicans the party of the private sector. But the number of Americans who depend on federal programs - Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, student loans, housing subsidies, Earned Income Tax Credits, affirmative action - is growing...

    FEC Chairman Says He Believes 'There Is Voter Fraud' In Key States

    I don't know if it can. The Constitution requires all election disputes be settled before the Electoral College meeting where the actual votes are cast. Deadline for that is Dec. 8. (The Founders imagined election disputes to be mostly small and easily resolved issues... not MASSIVE FRAUD ON...

    FEC Chairman Says He Believes 'There Is Voter Fraud' In Key States

    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fec-chairman-says-he-believes-there-voter-fraud-key-states Does the FEC have an juice or are they just window dressing? If the state tells the Feds to "go pound sand", they do? BTW... if Georgia can run big fraud to give the nod to Biden, can't they also...

    POTUS: Dominion Voting Machines flipped and deleted >1 million votes from Trump

    Just kidding. That would be TOO obvious! But I have heard that there are places where the number of votes was greater than the number of registered voters.

    POTUS: Dominion Voting Machines flipped and deleted >1 million votes from Trump

    Unless we have a fair and honest vote, America is finished. A fraudulent vote is nothing more than a circle jerk for show.
