Still think TITNC3: Return of the Iceberg was peak

I've been going through and closing/opening credit cards lately, the last couple I've called they've tried a 0% APR promo, which honestly - if I dumped it into a savings account at 4% and just let it ride, might be worth it. but mostly I've just been closing old/unused/not-worth-keeping-around accounts and whatnot.

TL DR "I didn't read or follow the instructions and it came out bad"

 

set a trailer monday night and sold all of my nvda stock at 410 tuesday am (114% gain). Its at 378 now. If theres one thing I learned from the fuckery of this thread...is take profits lol. Luckily it was all a long term hold as well.

 

Profits are for quitters.

 

I only go to 100%

100% loss (i guess the real winners go past 100% loss)

 

Did you guys see the info on the proposed budget compromise?

it would lock in all rates til 2025…. Mega barf

 

Oh...MEGA...

phew....

 

My daughter messaged me today that the tree in the yard has finally fallen. I've been telling them to stay away from it… Dropped like the market.

It's a very old ash tree I'd be interested in counting the rings, but it's been eaten apart by carpenter ants, and the emerald ash borer. It never stood a chance.


I don't think I could've felled it better on purpose. It slid right in between everything. Just missed the screen porch gazebo.

 

Gf got this in the mail today

 

A lot of the AMC holders got their cards AFTER the date they were to submit comments. Nice job there, court system.

At any rate, it doesn't change much. It was just for comments for or against the RS.

Tell your GF she has nice toes. Unless that's you. We won't judge either way

 

guilty

 

End of the month. Likely some fund or etf rebalancing

 

RC says Chew on this?

 

Ok, so this came to me in a dream last night. A highly regarded trading strategy that I can't see any downside to. So naturally it won't work. Problem is, I can't figure out why.

Take $400k (arbitrary number just for illustrative purposes). Put $200k into SPY and $200k into SQQQ

At the end of every trading day, carve off half of the percentage of gains, so you maintain and slowly grow the principle.

Day 1: SPY up .5%. You make $1,000. Take $500 for lunch money and leave $500 in.

Day 2: SQQQ up 3% (JPOW talked, woo!). You've got $6k. Take $3k and pay your mortage.

Day 3: SPY up 2% (Turns out we don't fear Jpow). Another $4k. Take $2k and fill up the truck with fuel

How does this fall apart?


Edit: Quick test

 

Good day to buy Dollar General?

 

LOL Photobucket trying to get me to subscribe or my Myspace pics are gone...

 

I believe at the close of each day there is a "service fee" shaved off the value of shares on both sides...reflected in the opening price the next day...I've looked at this Madoff principle before...

Also the math doesn't work because a 5% drop of 100 is $95....and then a 5% gain isn't $100 again...It's 99.75...so you're always losing on the recovery...

 

i miss MySpace tbh
i could easily rank the girls in class from 1 to 10 with 10 being the least attractive...what a time to be alive
