    Why do stocks get clobbered so bad with earnings??

    Why do stocks get clobbered so bad with earnings??

    This thread is in general...No specific stock. I just get so pissed off with the market. Say their earnings come in 1 cent below estimate...1 CENT!! So often the stock will drop 5-10% the next day. Also the company may choose not to provide earning estimates for the full year...Inflation...

    I bought Schwab on Friday...Did a covered call the same day

    I'll take the $72.50 and the $6.75 and walk away (also enjoy the bumped up dividend). I'll be happy for the profit and then look elsewhere...

    I bought Schwab on Friday...Did a covered call the same day

    Schwab...Good boring industry leader. The Board of Directors of The Charles Schwab Corporation at its meeting today authorized additional repurchases of the company’s common stock and declared a 2 cent, or 10% increase in the quarterly cash dividend to $0.22 per common share. The dividend is...

    Post-earnings long plays -- favorites?

    Buy Intel, NVIDIA, AMD...Throw in some Micron. Hold for 5 years...See what happens. They should be out of China and you don't have to deal with the Taiwan/China mess...

    Post-earnings long plays -- favorites?

    I went through my 50-60 stocks I constantly view. What about an ETF of chip companies?? We don't know who will be the winners or losers. We know that many will bring plants back to the US, if the bill in congress goes though. Own the whole industry (including Taiwan). I don't have time to...

    A quick move in my Roth IRA...WEAT

    Also wanted to mention (reading the full thread from March), that was a 7 month option. In October (after expiration) I can option the $9. or $10. covered calls...Six months out and gain more income.

    A quick move in my Roth IRA...WEAT

    My largest holding in my Roth IRAs are the Royce Family of Funds. RVT, RMT, RGT I have owned over the years. Very good dividends and return of capital. The cool thing about the return of capital is, there is no accounting for it come tax time...Taxes already paid, no adjustments...

    A quick move in my Roth IRA...WEAT

    Yeah, I am doubling down on wheat. I'm just talking about $2,373. to place in retirement money. I am looking for cash flow (tax free). Yes, I am down...I'm OK with that. I enjoy options expiring worthless. I very seldom buy back options near expiration dates...Even though the fees are...

    A quick move in my Roth IRA...WEAT

    Had about $3,000. in my Roth...Didn't know where to put it. I bought 300 shares of WEAT at $7.91...I then did a covered call for the Jan 23 $8.00. I got filled at $1.01...$300.95 including commissions (at Fidelity). Climate change, Russia, supply chain bottlenecks will not be fixed quickly...

    The auto industy...New and used cars are going to drop in price

    I though this was a very good video (even though I really don't trust someone in Las Vegas named "Lucky"). He shows why in 2023 the prices of used cars should drop. The scary part of the program is that prime loaned cars will be given back to the banks!! It's like 2008 but with cars...

    What I bought today...Cummins (CMI)

    This sort of summed up my thoughts... The trucking industry has been worried about skyrocketing diesel prices throughout much of 2022. They have warned about possible supply chain disruptions and have indicated they are shipping loads at losses if they can pass along fuel surcharges. One...

    What I bought today...Cummins (CMI)

    I have been eyeing this company for awhile. I put in my price at $189.11 and just waited. It got filled today. I have been watching it since I had owned Meditor (MTOR)...Cummins is buying Meditor. I then did a covered call for the June 23 $200...I got $20.40 for the option. It also has a 3%...

    Charles Schwab misleading (ie. straight out lying) about Covered Call trading?

    This is completely what Schwab said about covered calls. When do you use a covered call? Investors typically write covered calls when they have a neutral to slightly bullish sentiment. In many cases, the best time to sell covered calls is either at the time a long equity position is...

    Alternative to a VIX futures covered call

    I believe Schwab (and Fidelity) have 3 levels of option trading. They may not have granted you the level you wanted (and think you need). They create their levels based on the profile you produced when you requested to trade options. All brokers do this to prevent liability, by not putting...
