So, no porn then?

This is not a bad vid:

Honestly I think that they're shaking out the short sellers.

So who thinks Tesla is going to 10,000 per share? Maybe $20,000 per? Hell, let's take it to $100,000 per share. More than Berkshire Hathaway. Actually, I think that TSLA is worth more than the GDP of the Earth... and the Moon... and Mars...

What is your day job?

Don’t expect front-end loaders to be dumping buckets of gravel into these. The beds will be used for little more than grocery bags. This is not a work truck; it’s a status symbol.

Who is/are the most successful day traders in history, in terms of profit? I need a target... gonna set a new record. :D

Excellent answer!!! If the Fed funds rate is only used for overnight borrowing, why is it such a big deal when Powell & Co. moves it?

As we flirt with the idea of the first female US President, I started noodling about what kind of woman this would be. Would she need to be a genius? Assertive but not manly? Kind-hearted or a bitch? Physically beautiful? All of the above? She will have to go nose to nose with Xi, Putin, and...

If the Fed fund rate is lower than any US-T bond rate, can banks borrow and buy bonds for an essentially risk-free net profit of the difference? Example: Fed fund rate is 3%, and US10T yield is at 5%. Can JP borrow at 3% and buy notes, netting an annual profit of 2%? It’s printing money. How...

I want C++ double precision floating point spreads. 0.0000000001. We’ll pretend that rounding error doesn’t exist.

Bro, T is painting the tape for 2020 election; the trade war is simply the brush. “It’s the economy, stupid.” When the time is right: 1. A trade agreement will magically happen, 2. Sending the DJIA and SnP rocketing up. 3. The unwashed masses will be happy with their paychecks and bloated...

Waiting for the dip... a big profit-taking event. Then I’m going to buy and ride the election wave.

I think a plunge before the rise. Recall this event at the end of last year? I know that the unwashed masses tend to have short memories... but not us.

- 1 year until election - Fed dropping rates simply to keep market at record levels - T with brush in hand, about to paint the tape... waiting for the right time to send the market skyrocketing with Trade resolutions in pursuit of re-election. - I think he’s toying with the auto industry too...

If I wanted to bet for or against inflation, how would I do so? What instrument would I use, and—assuming I expected inflation to rise—which side would I take? Thx, Keith :^)

Jargon question here. We HIT the bid We TAKE the offer ... or LIFT the best offer What do we do to an Ask???

Yes, this just happened. While we we all watching for trends and scalping, the Fed happily injected $400B into the repo market. I am simply not intelligent enough to understand this turn of events; this is beyond my comprehension. I’m hoping that someone from the ET community can enlighten me...

^^^ This. Back in the day, there were no laws against inside trading, cornering, wash sales, etc. The big players manipulated the market to their advantage. Today, same isht, different century. If they can manipulate LIBOR—effing LIBOR—not much has changed...

Yeah this is some variant of a hedge. I hedge a lot to isolate risk; and deal with this constantly: one goes down, another goes up, and things get out of whack. It’s a pain; I just got margin called the other day because I was rebalancing and forgot about my SMA. Effing Reg-T. (NOTE: Taxes on...
