no. Feb 2021 my company started seeing our supply chain costs go up a lot, but at least we didn’t know if it would continue and it did. Every month the price of supplies kept going up and they still are.
OP also didn’t explain what he wanted to hedge. Was he looking to neutralize all directional risk or just downside? Or some partial amount of downside.
He might but he might be okay with this as this is the cost of his hedge.
again, how can you suggest any course of action without knowing what he’s hedging.
What if he’s short a ton of tech atm options? You suggesting he scale into naked gamma into option expiry?
It’s not common sense if you don’t know why he’s hedging.
the purpose of hedging isn’t to make money but to avoid losing money.
if he’s long a lot of google and apple would it be smart for him to sell those puts and be naked now?

he has done great things. I think the greatest thing he did was get the model...
he might be rich, but he wouldn't be "ELON MUSK"
Of all the self-made deca-billionaires, he benefited the most from the establishment. Stop drinking his koolaid and think for yourself.
I haven’t had their milk, but we frequent their store in west Hartford (I’m in western mass).
Perhaps we will do community table for lunch the following day. We are staying at the mayflower inn.
edit: looks like they don’t do lunch :(.
There are few who have benefited more from the establishment than him. He would be nothing if it were for cushy government contracts and EV subsidies and tax credits.
