Looks like Chanos is very happy today. Up-tick rule on COIN enforced!

A lot of margin calls going out today... the wreckage is interesting to watch.

Bro... I over-leveraged on my short PUTs Niederhoffer style... I'm happy to take this second chance to fight another day. Haw!

Well that was interesting. Even the TSX is green again.

Didn't realize this even existed, and just found out yesterday. For those that are interested.

Buterin: L2 transaction fees need to be under $.05 to be ‘truly acceptable’ https://cointelegraph.com/news/vitalik-l2-transaction-fees-need-to-be-under-5c-to-be-truly-acceptable

Always be prepared!

IIRC Enbridge & Pembina are both paying out more in dividends than they are making in earnings. This has been for some time now. When/if they reduce dividends, the dividend-chasers will flee, causing the stock to drop for a decent entry. You could also (hope) for another fire-sale in crypto...

I remember (when Bogle was still alive) mentioning how he could not time markets. He didn't even know anyone who even knew anyone who could time markets. Oddly enough, we have a generation of young & dumb millennials all across tiktok and Youtube who apparently already understand the markets...

I read the Alchemy of Finance more than once, and both times came to the same conclusion of N. Taleb. It's a shit book, and makes no sense while Soros just contradicts himself. The whole reason I read it a second time was I thought I must not be understanding Soros right, and just too dumb to...

Don't bet on it, all death results in the past can not be used for future life expectations. We may run into a black-swan event, and be stuck with infinite life expectancy. Then what kind of hell-hole would you be in? How would you save up for that kind of retirement?

Citi needs an audit... and their risk-experts canned before we have another Amaranth Advisors LLC.

I don't recall hearing of this play before... So, to anyone else who it's new, interesting article. Not that I'm going to follow it: https://cointelegraph.com/news/afraid-to-buy-the-dip-bitcoin-options-provide-a-safer-way-to-go-long-from-38k

It has gone from $80 bux to $9 bux a share in less than a year. Most the gains to be made from shorting have already been bled out. So no, no trades on HOOD right now. I'm just sitting watching the horror-show entertainment while the bag-holders sit and lose sleep every night.

I had wanted to purchase into IBKR a long time ago, but damn. That stock almost never goes on sale and people who buy it hold onto it for dear life, right to their graves. No one likes to sell it, lol. Unlike like HOOD, which soon droped like a rock after the IPO hype was over with, then goes...

20 minutes till closing bell. Looks like the BULLs have it for the day. Congrats to those who snatched up ROKU while CNBC had every hedge fund manager boasting how they were shorting all streaming stocks. It's been on a tear upward ever since those darkest hours last week and those who missed...

Check with your government regarding how wash-sales on stock options are handled. Just because they may have different strikes/expirations, doesn't mean the TAX-Man will be forgiving even though you insist that the CUSIPs are different.
