this guy has 82mm (often making 5 or 10mm in a month) put up a website showing his trades in real-time but won’t show his pnl in real-time? What’s his motivation for all this?

Or a research based short seller (like Carson block). Well done.

If said text return doesn’t show the pnl and instead only shows the gross proceeds, what’s the point of showing a 1099?

we were all newbs too.

but a lot of that leverage wasn’t real. It was matched derivatives that were settled daily. That’s why no counter party lost money on the bankruptcy. Bond holders of the corporate did but that was actually very small.

99.9999percent of the posters in politics are shills. it’s amazing the number of people on this trading site that don’t trade.

I would say -90percent within 2 days. first day -30percent as a gap move and that will spur margin calls up the wazoo and continued forced selling. It would be so catastrophic the government (if it still exists) would have to backstop all investors and markets would rally back to -20percent...

Nobu in Vegas is way overpriced. You go to Vegas a lot?

i'm not a fan of NY steakhouses (except for Del Friscos). I don't find them any better than premium steakhouses in other cities or better than the high end chains. Sushi on the other hand.....

All grocery stores sell Raos sauce. The NY restaurant is supposed to be special. None of the brokers I did business with could get a reservation there (and getting reservations was 1/2 their job).

that could be because they were selling close to intrisinic when they put the order in and in those 2 seconds the stock moved $30.

The food better be on par with Rao’s or Brooklyn fare to be a viable business. Or more likely it’s a publicity stunt.

what about “shadda ya face”

It used to be the fringe left had no sense of rationality. Now it’s the fringe right. The only difference was the left were put at the kiddie table while the grownups worked. Now those right wing kids are running the party.

I would call compliance. You don't look like an idiot for asking questions no matter what. You look like an idiot for violating rules or for doing reckless things.

There are thousands of stories like that.

It depends on if oil is a feedstock or not I would think.

What is a better alternative? maybe the US can bomb Ukraine so that Russian mothers don’t lose their sons to a war that satisfies Putin’s ego? or maybe the US can send money to Russia to pay for better tires on their trucks? or maybe the US can launch air strikes on Russian cities like...

unfortunately that's how the world works. The powerless are punished for the actions of few powerful. Ask all those Ukrainians who have fled their homes. Or ask all those Afghan women whose lives are ruined by a few men with AK-47s.

The US and Uk are okay with Russians not buying all the apartments in Miami, NY, and London as a way of hiding wealth from Putin. Those oligarchs should be fixing russia so that their wealth can be safe there.
