    Catching a falling knife

    Yes, you aren't the first to make that point ;). The challenge for me is my time zone. US market opens at 9:30 pm for me. I can trade and actively protect against drops for a couple hours or so, but then I go to sleep. On a few occasions I've awakened to triggered stops with a price spike...

    Catching a falling knife

    I'm a fairly transparent person and derive no ego boost nor shame from trading gains and losses. I try to learn and hopefully make fewer errors. On the other hand I'm not afraid to take risks, and risks and a two edges knife.

    Catching a falling knife

    I tried to avoid a falling knife but failed and ended with 17 stitches, sliced nerve and artery of my pinky finger. But that wasn't as bad as the falling knife of loosing 50% of gains from the previous year.

    Many young people shouldn’t save for retirement, says research based on a Nobel Prize–winning theory

    Yes, sorry, they were talking about over $1M per so it's 71 trillion or 7.1 million boomers... I'd have to watch the episode again.

    Many young people shouldn’t save for retirement, says research based on a Nobel Prize–winning theory

    The most recent All In podcast had an interesting take on the subject, noting that around 71 million baby boomers are sitting on over $71B in wealth, wealth that is and will continue to be transferred to children and grand children in the next few years. It's apparently the greatest transfer of...

    TSLA 2022

    I believe a couple big name Tesla bulls questioned Musk on that very subject and were unceremoniously dismissed by him. It's fair to say that without Musk there would be no Tesla or Space X or The Boring Company. He has the vision, drive and financial resources to make things happen. Yet, he...

    TSLA 2022

    This past weekend I was chatting with a good friend who is heavily invested in Tesla and follows a couple members of TMC (Tesla Motor Club). I was going through my 2 cents projections but he said he was warned to expect the share price to drop to 250... Of course that was hard to reconcile...

    TSLA 2022

    But I do have some questions some of you may be able to answer. Have they increased the number of service centers (outside contractors) over the year in the US?? Tesla currently operates over 673 stores and service centers and a fleet of 1,372 mobile service vehicles to service over 2 million...

    Unrelenting inflation is taking a toll, leaving more Americans living paycheck to paycheck

    I have an issue with linking inflation to "living paycheck to paycheck" and hope someone can clarify this link to me. The latest employment figures (which crashed the market when they came out) showed unexpected record high numbers, thus record low unemployment rate. We also know that employers...

    Democrats scrap plan to vote on stock trading ban before elections

    This new law is pretty wide ranging and forbids the elected official, their spouse and their children from trading. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me provided that existing laws explicitly forbid trading on not publicly available info and penalties are painful enough to never do it again...

    TSLA 2022

    I see a symetrical triangle (resistance at 378 on 4/4; support at 206 on 5/25) with breakout expected before mid November (apex at 288). Within the triangle, support was tested 5x, the last yesterday 9/29 at 265 and resistance once at 314 on 9/21. Historically (if we can call 3 years...

    Tough day for the market overall. I do still expect TSLA to hit 310 in days.

    TSLA 2022

    Expecting TSLA to break 310 before end of week. Production and sales numbers are once again above expectations and Tesla's annual AI Day is Sept 30, always a source of Tesla geek excitement.
