    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    I think that word "hypocrisy" does not mean what you think it means, speaking man.

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    Just so we're clear then, you're doing the old man yelling at clouds thing. Definitely free to do it, most people just think its a bit daft at best if you accomplish nothing by doing so. If hypocrisy is your criteria for applying the b*** moniker I look forward to you applying it every time...

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    I can't help but notice you spent 2 paragraphs avoiding the very simple question of what you hoped to accomplish with calling Senator Harris a b****. Do you not know, or is the question too uncomfortable for you to confront? You've accomplished nothing, as I pointed out, except to make everyone...

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    We were having a conversation about Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Who is a house member. You've really worked yourself into a frenzy here, again what is that accomplishing other than raising your blood pressure?

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    The power that one junior House member is accorded in the minds of conservatives is pretty damn funny in a meta kind of way. I can't wait to see what she's able to accomplish when she's blessed with B**** status in @JSOP's world!

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    "Guaranteed" is it? You all need to chill out a little, your panic isn't helping you think clearly. If the Senate is controlled by the democrats, it means Chuck Schumer is most likely Senate majority leader. Senator Schumer is the senator from New York, he's bought and paid for by the financial...

    If Biden wins, is a Stock Transaction Tax likely?

    What is compelling you to refer to Senator Harris as a b**** every time you refer to her? I get it, you don't like her, but why diminish yourself (my formerly high opinion of you took a nosedive with this) with gratuitous disrespect of another person? What exactly do you accomplish with that?

    Otc short sale - can I refuse buy stocks again if price is abusive ?

    Put in an offer to buy at .005 if you want to close the position out without a loss (besides commission) or .006 or .010 if you really want to close it fast. The bid/ask is just what is available to transact immediately in the market. For very illiquid stocks it has very little if any relevance...

    Are There ways to know which stocks the price can drop below Zero ?

    I can't believe the inanity of this thread has gone on for 5 pages and 44 posts!

    Are airline stocks at their lowest?

    Remember air travel was going to be forever changed after 9/11 as well. I guess it was forever made more inconvenient by TSA, but the industry did far better in the 15 years after it than the 15 years before so I'd tend to agree with you. The problem, as I mentioned before, is that most of the...

    Trump trade war has failed to boost U.S. manufacturing...

    I did google it and found not a single source, reputable or not, for that piece of what appears to be completely fabricated information. ZH may well have "reported" it, but if you stop for even a second to think about it, it's clearly absurd and would need a hell of alot of support to be taken...

    Day margins vs. overnight - Doesn't IB differentiate?

    They do still have the old OptionsXpress platform and soon if not already TD's Thinkorswim. Not sure if you had to have a legacy account to use those of if they're open to all Schwab customers, I just have an old IRA account there.

    SCO short ETF on tomorrow's watchlist on Biden killing oil industry?

    Yeah, I'm talking over the next decade. I think you're talking over the next year. To shift my conversation to the next year, I'd say there's very little fracking happening on federal land anyway. For example I know Marcellus Shale drilling is almost exclusively on private land (although I know...

    SCO short ETF on tomorrow's watchlist on Biden killing oil industry?

    On a macro level its done a pretty good job of explaining CL prices. Economy is doing great prior to 2008 so lots of demand, oil prices are high. Great recession in 2008, demand drops and oil prices drop. Worldwide economy recovers over the next several years, demand recovers and prices go up...

    SCO short ETF on tomorrow's watchlist on Biden killing oil industry?

    Except he's very specifically said he doesn't intend to "kill fracking" and all of his plans are about eliminating demand for oil by replacing it rather than banning it. Which, back to basic econ class, leads to an oversupply and a crash in prices. At the end of the day it still "kills oil" it...

    No decay over weekends?

    It might be worth investigating if MMs should take all their theta off before the weekend? Doing so 100% would only be results neutral if nothing ever happened to move the market over the weekend. Intuitively I'd guess that's not correct. Certainly things happen far less over the weekend, but...

    SCO short ETF on tomorrow's watchlist on Biden killing oil industry?

    Just remember where you'd be if you bought coal companies based on Trump's promises to bring back coal in 2016...11 bankruptcies and counting. And just to clarify, I was referring to the bankruptcies of coal companies, not the bankruptcies of the companies Trump ran into the ground.

    I think we are living in a computer simulation

    There's an interesting paradox there. First, it makes perfect sense that given our rate of technology improvement that in a not so distant future but certainly in the next few thousand years we could make a simulation with fidelity such that participants wouldn't be able to distinguish it from...

    How much do you pay your CPA?

    It's not like being a doctor makes you a genius incapable of making mistakes. Would you rather understand and complete your own brain surgery should you need it rather than living with the results of a brain surgeon who doesn't have the same incentives as yourself? I tell you, anti...
