    de-dollarification, brics, 401k leverage

    this is where it gets interesting. US is at the forefront or near the forefront of huge technology and medical field, there may be a industries US is not good at and forced to import. But really the value of currency is ultimately measured by the certain country's ability to sustain itself...

    de-dollarification, brics, 401k leverage

    lets s see and assume I am to become brics fan. IMO, biggest barrier to brics common currency is also a language barrier. English is a world language and dollar is closely associated with it. You decided to transact with ruble or Yuan, but first thing that makes me very uncomfortable doing so is...

    de-dollarification, brics, 401k leverage

    if you are talking about overreaction, imo, it has been always name of the game. As far as america goes, it was always on the verge desctruction, be it during great depression. When the true destrcution will ever happen, beats me to hell.

    de-dollarification, brics, 401k leverage

    looks like g7 is outpassed by brics recently, although it has been gradually happening, it looks like it crossed psychological mark where 1st time brics pass g7 in economic output. scary news is they are revamping up not using dollars. This concerns about dollar based savings, 401k, 529. Is...

    when i think about market capitalization, it seems as abstract as mirage

    when you look at particular stock of company XYZ, stock symbol XYZ and say market cap is 100B$ as of today. It is easier to think that there is a 100B$ dollar invested in the stock at current time. But I think this is wrong assumption. I also mistakenly held belief (altghough naively, much...

    Discussion: Mechanics of SVB and similar bank collapse

    I am trying to wrap my head around how SVB and several other banks and steer myself (my option portfolio) during this uncertain time. I posted here although it is not quite appropriate topic, i just decided here because option traders tend to be much smarter and knowledgeable (no B.S.) than...

    confused about w-2 and 1099B

    looks like i will have to go through turbotax. Through ttax,i was seeing tax liability of 12,000$, whereas manually i was seeing refund of 4,000$. But looks like mine is mistaken. I havent gotten to the bottom of it but it appears w-2 will report the difference between purchase price and market...

    confused about w-2 and 1099B

    I opted for manual filing (not using online tax software) this year as it seems to be incurring errors. Now I have confusion. I had base salary and bonus combined about 202k this year (160k+55k). In addition to that I incurred RSU sale and ESPP about 39k and 14.7k each based on my ~December 2022...

    CVNA halt trading, options halt too?

    i think CVNA is saved just like GAMESTOP, 6b$ in debt, few hundred million in equity. If market cap reaches 30B through extreme squeeze, CVNA management can just sell 6B$ of its holdings to cover debt. Viola!!

    rollover 401k

    I am rolling over from one ira to another one. The process from my financial institution is unclear. To make it short, it looks like I might have to do a normal transfer (using routing number). WOuld it trigger 10% earlier penalty? I remember reading somewhere, doing so would not incur penalty...

    Does LT and ST capital gain apply to RSU

    I got better understanding of "double taxation" event on RSU which is really not. Now if one holds onto long enough time (> 1 yr), does the gain after vest will be taxable for LT gain? I know this could be less relevant with Biden's tax reform but still wanna know for now...

    is it worth it?

    i am not sure why it should be called abuse. Nothing wrong ethically, contributing as agreed, withdrawing and paying penalty as required by law. It could possibly be considered a loophole but there are tons of such right?
