Does Russian Railways trade on the Moscow Exchange? I've been long the RSX since the Nat Gas breakout. Today was the first day it really went down a lot -- NG & CL both down hard intraday.

This has to be the strangest SPAC/IPO I've seen since Snowflake. The liquidity of this stock in the after hours is incredible -- I wonder if its being driven by the WSB Gang. From 1848 to 1856 EST it went from $59 to $68 on ~ 1 million shares. Its up currently about 570% so its obvious Trump...

I don't subscribe. It is one of the sources that TD Ameritrade has in their News tab if you check a symbol for news.

Still going strong at $48+. Its pretty amazing. 430 million shares traded at 1449 EST. Bought 150 at $18, unfortunately sold most of it at $35. Should have known it would keep going higher given all the rabid Trump fans from his rallies.

Title 2 regulation aka price caps on broadband service. From Barron's on 10/11/2021 (A Cable Bull Goes Neutral on the Stocks. Here's Why.): Louthan (Raymond James cable analyst) also sees the Federal Communications Commission taking a more active role. Senate confirmation hearings for a fifth...

This thread didn't age well. Jim Grant is perma-bear I've seen him on the tele 100s of times since the collapse of Lehman and he tells the same story over and over. At least that NYU professor Roubini doesn't come on anymore -- he was god awful.

QMOM looks a lot like the chart of ARKK, however MTUM is pretty impressive. It seems to outperform the SPY consistently by 5-6% pa even going back to inception in 2014:

Direxion reduced the 3X to 2X on some of the funds like their international & some sector ETFs (like India, Russia, Brazil, Energy & Gold stocks). So I just use ITM options on those ETFs. It works almost as good. I do prefer the 3X ETFs since if there is large price correction I can just buy...

This sounds like the company I used to work for. They also never bothered to upgrade from DEC VAX until it was too late. We also used to use the old IBM AIX servers they sold back in the '90s. Its amazing TD Ameritrade US still has problems in the first hour on volatile days. The weirdest thing...

I used to trade the naked weeklies (SPY & QQQ) but it has incredible volatility and leverage. If you are right (or lucky) you can make tons of money however if you are wrong in the direction it almost always goes close to zero. Seems like best use of the naked weeklies is in gaining tons of...

Bring back the TVIX or even better we need a +-3X VIX ETF. Also I wish Direxion would go back to 3X for their stock ETFs.

I wonder why no one floats an ETF/MF that just rotates among the momentum sectors/stocks? It would seem to work at least in this market. Of course with so much trading it would work better in an IRA vs. taxable account. I only watch the market a few hours a day and its clear that the bond...

Wow what a surprise another ET thread descends into a pissing contest. Only this time it started on page 1. It usually takes 3 or 4 pages for that to happen.

I think that is historically accurate. I did some research on the North Asian economies and they all have a similar problem where they are very cloistered -- they simply don't like non domestic people. I remember in high school I had a Taiwanese friend and she hated everyone who wasn't from...

Then Australia will do well in the future assuming they still have a good relationship with China. The US is a dying giant and I assume China will be the new hub of finance in the future probably in the 2030s. Canada is another country that is mainly a natural resources exporting economy and has...

Australia & NZ are pretty interesting in that the population is very small but they do at least have industries beyond natural resources. Even Australia has a pretty good banking & even lately some good high tech companies. I believe the current fad in fintech of "buy now, pay later" started...

So true. In Africa its probably like the top 50 families or less. I know when the British left India, the wealthy families essentially were the local government. Malaysia seems like every other commodity export economy that has no incentive to create an actual industry similar to Venezuela...

What a miserable performance -- only up 5% from before the Covid collapse. Its even below Pfizer Monday (11/9/2020), I believe. Just like Lebanon it has systemic corruption from the top down. The Leisure class believes they are living in Singapore yet their country hasn't progressed much...

Did this idiot Salameh think that all the future financial holes could be filled with "Foreign Reserves" forever? Its amazing that foreigners invested $170 Billion -- I wonder where it all went? When will these countries ever learn from the collapsed failure of almost every Chicago School...

Of course I don't try to guess the market usually but I was talking about these days where there is a report or Fed speaking out. My observation looking at the 15 sec chart on TWS is that the longer term but still intraday momentum is the initial direction. It also happened after the virtual...
