Definitely. I was responding to the point that why would he not exercise the long option. If his view changes after being assigned he should change his position. But if his view is the same, he should hold the assigned stock + option because his new position is strictly better than his old position.

Yup. The stock tanking hard is his free option. If he wasn’t assigned when the stock got to 59, he should be afraid that the stock sells off to below 50 and he will lose his entire premium.

He will be long a “free” call.

I think it’s an attempt changing the news cycle from the trade war and recession situation. Sarmucci described trump best: people aren’t people. They are either obstacles or stepping stones. When looking at trumps actions in that light, it becomes clear he’s throwing peoples lives into...

Her face got fat.

Yes. And it’s a lot easier to deal with than the RSA key I have to use with my broker.

Trump, himself has said his own (ex-)advisors were unqualified for the job that he hired them for.

My BMW (2001 540i) gave no problems, no shop visits for 7 years. My Audi A7 had a few but nothing major. My wife’s Lexus hasn’t gone into the shop once in 7 years.

Rhetoric from both sides to be blamed for that one. The right for promoting racism and the non-whites for saying they just want to live.

All that money will trickle down (to Modena Italy and Paris France).

A moderate democrat presidential candidate for normal republicans to vote for and droves of democrats come out to vote because they want trump out. Give moderate republicans a tough choice: a sane democrat or a a batshit crazy racist republican.
