I know who I would like my daughters to date back in the day... https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OSD5FKKD5pw Former Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy spent part of the San Francisco 49ers' bye week harvesting crops in Iowa. Purdy's fiancée, Jenna Brandt, posted a short Instagram video of Purdy...

I own a few iShares ETFs. They are known for their low volume trades...3-5,000 shares per day. They are usually minor (obscure) products (junior gold miner/regional banks). I even had one of their coffee ETFs before it shut down (JO). I do covered calls on some of these. You have to be...

2008, SEC couldn't see what was right in front of them... I even saw it... I didn't want to do puts, but if I did, would have made a ton of money. The no no loans...

iShares U.S. Regional Banks ETF (IAT) 39.88-1.13(-2.76%) I have an option on this ETF at $40 (covered call)...I forget which month (don't want to bother looking it up). I was thinking it would get called away...But maybe not.

But, but, I'm still holding on to my Myspace stock...It's there in my sock drawer.

I have a March 15, 2024 covered call I want to buy back on the cheap. It's at the $200. strike. I hope to buy it back for under 20 cents ($20.) over then next few days...

I think they had to wait for the market to digest Amazon's numbers. Would love the presenter to start speaking... "Blah, blah, blah...Safe Harbor, here are the numbers"!!

True story in my hometown. Old time farmer walks into Bank of America in 1981. He requests and gets $100,000. CD/5 years, earning over 15%. A year later the bank is asking him to turn it in and they would pay him a huge bonus. He chose to keep it...

A welcome sigh of relief... Retired...Have a lot of treasuries and CDs. Keep those rates high and boring!! Yeah, I lost (on paper) in the market today. But, I am sure there are many retirees (who may have sold a business/rental) that are sitting on cash, who are rejoicing at the sit tight...

It's like saying most people on Myspace are major entertainers and influencers... That train left the station a LOOONNGG time ago...

All kidding aside...This is how I play electric in North America. https://www.enbridge.com

No...Did a leap just below "in the money". I gave them one year to find the problem...With thousands of engineers (and tech people) they did it in months. They had stopped their dividend (further price drop), but I made money just on the rich premium and time decay...Very few around like that...

The term "economic moat," popularized by Warren Buffett, refers to a business's ability to maintain competitive advantages over its competitors in order to protect its long-term profits and market share. Just like a medieval castle, the moat serves to protect those inside the fortress and their...

I was trying to think of an example...With a wide moat. Boeing came to mind...BA In 2018 and 2019, two Boeing 737 MAX narrow-body passenger airplanes crashed, leaving 346 people dead and no survivors. In response, aviation regulators and airlines around the world grounded all 737 MAX...

I hardly ever double down (learned from experience). Also I keep less that 2.5% in my stock portfolio, in any one stock. Mutual funds and things like QQQ/Apple would be exclusions...

Don't know about Bloomberg. Just an outside view over the years. Zacks always seems to estimate high...I get really frustrated with them. They can do what they like, but I've always felt they were unfair with their estimates. The reasons...My thoughts. Zacks would not take into account...

A couple of things...Are the fees higher? If I put in a buy/sell "limit" order, do I have to accept odd lots (less than 100 shares)? Can it be "all or none"...What about partial? You want to sell 200 shares, but you want them in one or two lots of 100 shares, if sold...Doable?? So it seems...

Can we go over this again. Can they be done on exchanges? I notice the Nasdaq has trades. Are these trades done usually at brokers...Where both buyer and seller match and get filled?? Are there any free websites that give insight to after hour trade activities? Could someone go over the...

This afternoon...Did a quick covered call in the trust. I've optioned this before. Resmed (RMD), think CPAP and oxygen containers...Good earnings today. 1 call July 24 at $230...I got $4.10 ($410.) for the option.

One trade yesterday and one today. Both were while I was gone. I bought Dupont (DD) at $64.51 in my Roth IRA. The stock came out with OK earnings, but their guidance was just fair. The market gave it a spanking yesterday. I was going to see the grandkids...Hour drive each way, (didn't want...
