selloff begins on monday

What's a good entry point for Heinz (KHC) ?

first for INPX chads

ROOOOOOWWWWRRR

>>16728416
maybe

Is there a bull case for natgas this year? Snagging some UGAZ for a quick profit would be nice

alright lads whats the next meme stock?

>>16728441
KHC

>>16728455
but anon, theres too many zeroes behind that market cap number for it to be a meme stock

>>16728395
HIGH FINANCE IS JEWISH

>>16728455
What's a good entry point?

>>16728455
YTEN

I've got several bags to sell

>>16728441
here, pick one of these

>>16728441
AWE has fat meme potential imo. Under 3 mil mcap, exploring for precious metals in Fiji, they own something like 4% of the main island. I think they have some assay results due at some point soonish as well

>>16728416
What makes you say this?

>>16728519
because i was wrong about the selloff starting today

>>16728503
LIO is another mining company on Fiji that's more established, much larger mcap and arguably a safer bet, just not the insane meme potential of AWE

You have 5 Seconds to give me your deep read on this headline.
Knowing only this, what stocks would you buy?

>>16728436
>Is there a bull case for natgas this year?
Only technical at this time. It's nearing the 2019 low.

>>16728599
I guess parent companies of record companies, maybe? I have no idea which tickers that would be. Never traded the entertainment media sector before aside from brief stints with netflix.

>>16728465
you're just jelly you don't dress as swanky as they

>>16728470
Chart looks rough.

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4313632-etf-spotlight-nasdaq-100-covered-call-etf-qyld

Found this a very useful read for QYLD and covered calls, for noobs like myself

Fuck snss for being a dead fish

Fuck galt for potentially being diluted if they don't sell very soon

>>16728417
Look at the chart jackass. I'm long so I can't be impartial. I just have to tell you to buy ketchup.

>>16728455
Fucking free based

>>16728455
implying I forgot about AMRS

AMC stock
Is it on sale or is it dying?

I have a bat in my house and he won't fly out

I tried to grab him but he has a solid grip on my stone fireplace and he was just going "eeee eeeee eeeee eeeee" at me the whole time

>>16728465

>>16728353
>>16728620
Decent call volume on the UNg, check it out

>>16728771
I've been trading it since early last month with great success. Definitely not a long term hold.

>>16728816
AMRS is a great stock

>>16728834
He obviously wants to stay. Give him a Coke and some of your Mac and Cheese.

>>16728813
You reckon it will dip below 30 ketchup bro?

>>16728834
Bats are cool and friendly. They like bananas.

>>16728834
Those things carry rabies mate. Be cautious pls.

>>16728926
Also this. Wear gloves and long sleeves. If it flies down to the floor, throw a towel over him then gather the towel in to a bundle. Release outside.

Thoughts on TripAdvisor (TRIP)? One of the worst performing stocks of 2019, at 50% discount

>>16728965
Before buying anything that has an easy access consumer service, ask yourself, when was the last time I used fucking TripAdvisor?

I feel like I should buy more ONTX but to do so I'd have to sell some GALT probably and I don't really want to sell some GALT.

>>16728965
>at 50% discount
You're arguing with the market, don't lie to yourself

>>16728416
U mad, Bobo?

>>16728911
I hope not. And with the power of multiple ketchup and macaroni memes I will attempt to moon it with sheer force of will.

VISL VISL VISL

GALT is now on a race with time against SAVA. The day GALT is sold can't come soon enough. Everything gets ruined if the sell was nothing but talk.

>>16728977
Yeah I know, it's boomer shit, but how low can it go?

>>16728990
What do you mean?

BIG GEX

anyone remember what CERU (my nigga) got merged into?

Is this a bullish indicator?

https://m.moodys.com/research/Moodys-assigns-Prime-3-to-Kraft-Heinz-1-billion-Euro--PR_416225

Is there an honest case for single stocks when it comes to dividend investment? Is it better to buy dividend oriented index funds or ETFs?

>>16729088
Saw this. What does it mean?

What are some low risk stocks I can put my life savings into to double my money?

What should I purchase to profit off of based China's ascendancy this decade?

>>16728470
I'm in at .154 so I've made profit. You fellas telling me I need to get out now?

I have such a rager for ketchup right now. I think I was destined to have a stake in this company. I don't even care if you anons buy in or not anymore. I'm just gonna spasm violently in my ketchup coated gains like an autistic Scrooge McDuck.

BILI BILI BILI BILI BILI. And Alibaba I guess.

>disclaimer: I/We are long BILI and I/We would like it to go up but cannot and will not guarantee that I/We will not dump it at the first sign of a sell off.

I just bought 10k worth of gold calls, expiration 1/17 and needing a 1% move to be ITM. The fucked up thing is I wish I bought more as they're instantly up $1000

I don't know what the fuck is wrong with gold but it is NOT GIVING UP. Doesn't go down

>>16728922
Fuck. Off. Just paid almost $20K to clean up my attic and bat-proof it. Old insulation was soaked with guano and bat pee. At least now my breathing issues cleared away. And no they don't fucking eat mosquitoes, still had a ton of those in the backyard too.

I'm installing an owl box on one of my trees.

a-a-a-am I gonna be rich guys?

>>16729022
It would very nice to be sold or even just partnered with in quarter 1 of this year. I would split a chunk of the gains with sava and lci.

>>16729399
Based loli poster

>>16729405
I’ve been waiting for gold to dip back below 1500... but it might not happen. Xi juiced the market and gold so we’re in a weird time.

>>16729473
>our guy, GALT
Working it. Making it.

>>16729496
Looks like that’s just initiation of phase 3 trials... wake me up when they’re going to announce successful completion.

>>16729507
They won't. They will have sold it off by then. Probably right after the adaptive P3 is accepted by the FDA. Maybe sooner. Too many old men not doing anything now. No insider buys. No CMO. Adaptive trials use high tech software these old goats won't know.

What indicators or signals do you anons use and why?

Is implied volatility... good?

>>16729569
why would big pharma bite before they even post successful phase 3 trials, after phase 2 didn't deliver strongly enough to warrant a buy or even a partnership?

>>16729507
>wake me up when they’re going to announce successful completion
>successful completion
>galt
>successful
You going into hibernation bud?

>>16728533
>>16728416
Post your shorts and puts or shut the fuck up.

I know this is /biz/, but this could have major complications. This guy (a top guy with massive influence in Iran and its military) was just killed in Iraq in an ambush. No joke the largest development we have seen from that area for years. If the reports are true then US airstrikes were responsible, keep an eye on oil in coming days

>>16729609
*blah blah blah blah oil middle east*

Shut the fuck up retard. ME oil has been irrelevant to the US economy for the past 5 years.

>>16729569
This is wonderful Apu. Saved.

>>16729577
I use combination of the two main Ichimoku cloud lines (kijun and kenkan) set to slightly longer than default periods. A volume indicator, and a two lines cross style indicator. Whether I use all in tandem or only two of the three depends on the style of stock. Commodities, for instance, do not play nice with my volume indicator so I don't use it on those stocks.

>>16729590
>Is implied volatility... good?
It's either good or bad depending on where the chart you're looking at is (say overbought or oversold conditions) and what the outlook is. High implied volatility doesn't mean anything about the strength of the trend, necessarily.

>>16729609
I wonder if the anon from last night who said something was going to happen with Iran knew about that ahead of time.

>>16728533
Santa Claus rallies go THROUGH the 2nd though... why would you short into the 2nd?

Also, gex looks like there's decent support, so no dramatic selloff should occur, if my understanding of this is somewhat right. I think it means the big money is decently hedged, or that dips will likely be bought.

>>16729622
ME oil is not irrelevant. And notice that it is in the US, Saudi, Russia, and Iran self interest to keep oil from falling too far.

That said, I think I bought the USOI too soon. When Warren finally announces how bad she did with donations this time around, that could kick energy stocks down again. If she is the nominee though, that would really be a boost to energy stocks. Banning shale fracking would cause the natty to absolutely moon.

>>16729650
All that was said was not to invest in the middle east, and not to sell your oil stocks. Anon was just someone who pays attention to the news.

>>16729590
After phase 2 results both Jim Czirr and Dick Uihlein said they intended to partner or sell. They hired Boston based Back Bay Life Science Advisors to help. My guess is those initial talks failed as they could not agree on a price.

Last year they initiated a rights offering and Uihlein directly referenced other people's belief they could not go it alone. An indirect shot at negotiations and their lack of money being used against them. Since the rights offering they changed the structure of management by reigning in Czirrs influence, which was too powerful, and also cleaned the share structure to make all their convoluted preferred stock easily convertible to common.

Even the change to an adaptive trial is a change to what big pharma now openly say they want. They've had plenty of time to keep negotiations going and gives and takes to attract a partner or sell. I'm betting it happens and they are narrowing down concessions and finer points.

>>16728395

Are vegan meat companies like BYND a meme or genuine opportunity? Will all the zoomer fags quit eating lettuce soon and I'll be left holding bags?

https://money-365.com/investing/five-vegan-meat-stocks-to-watch-in-2020

There's some decent companies (BYND are fucked and have way lower to fall imo) on the horizon which may be going public soon, but it seems a gamble like Cannabis stonks.

>>16728420
gay penny stock you better sell that shit tomorrow

>>16729672
>it seems a gamble like Cannabis stonks.
Good observation. I'm not going to bother clicking through to "money 365" I'd rather invest in companies that I can be damn confident will stay in business.

Lockheed Martin, Nintendo, and the Dudes of the Dow: MRK, CSCO, KO

>>16729473
>>16729507
>>16729569
Thinking of getting some GNFT shares to play for its upcoming P3 trial. Had positive results on NASH test data back in November, as well a DSMB recommendation. End of year, they will file a NDA, to setup for a PDUFA date in 2021. It seems to be under the weather, and there is barely any volume each trading day. So most likely, the outcome of the trial is going to be a binary event.
Any thoughts, lads?

>>16729672
My opinion is the beyond meat products are too expensive and the sales have been soft as a result. It's a gamble at this juncture. The nutritional data on the nouveau fake meat is also a potential bearish catalyst. Any news story along the lines of "fake meat is actually worse for your health than ordinary beef" coming from a major news outlet can hurt the stock.

>>16729022
GALT and SAVA have nothing to do with each other
And a possible BO isn't the only reason to buy GALT

>>16728810
they have a lot of options before that happens, including DU increasing the LOC

>>16729705
>Any thoughts, lads?

Their CEO quit recently, and another company with the same MoA failed recently (CBAY, but its recent fall was because of safety issues, not the failed trial that came before)

>>16729590
statistically speaking, BOs are most common in phase 2 and preclinical biotech companies

>>16729643
I just recently started using Ichimoku. Learning and practicing how to use it on History of charts, I’m starting to realize how powerful the Ichimoku cloud is. I used Bollinger bands before this. I use volume inline, MACD, RSI and OnBalanceVolume. I’ll turn stochastics on and off looking at charts but I’m debating using SMI.

>>16729693

Links broke anyway and it worked five mins ago. Strange was a decent article. Yeah I see the whole thing as being built on the ficcle nature of millennial trends, but there also seems to be a decent amount of opportunity there if it's not just a fad.

>>16729706

Beyond Meat are stupidly expensive yeah. And the reliance on onions products concerns me health wise, without getting into soi boi territory, it's just not a viable substitute - but that doesn't mean I'm not looking to profit from it.

>>16729663
A buyout is buying shares at a premium, what would a partnership do?

>>16729713
I was looking up and the CEO resigned in September. This happened 2 months before positive news came out on recommendation of continuing the P3 trial, as well its NIS4 test at an annual Boston event. Will the negatives of the CEO resigning still apply?

>>16729601
rude

>>16729729
Test the ichimoku for ways to use it somewhat outside the prescribed traditional method. There's a reason I only use the two main lines with those set to different longer periods. I don't use the kenkan cross over kijun as a buy signal although I may as a sell signal. Typically kenkan cross below kijun happens well after I've already sold anyway.
*translator's note: the english version of kenkan and kijun is conversion line and base line, respectively. Kenkan is the short period one, kijun the longer.

GOLD MAKING NEW HIGHS AGAIN THIS ISN'T STOPPING

>>16729622
Who in the fuck said anything about the US economy? These events along with other shit that will probably happen will lead to major moves for oil, like bombing oiI installations, seizing tankers, etc etc.

>>16729672
Like you said, they are just like weedbro stocks.. pure gamble. Not to mention that I think this vegan push is just a phase, normal people would never stop eating meat in mass. Most of them just don't care, hence nobody knows where the hell companies like BYND should be priced at. Their consumer base is like 1.6-2% of the US. They are pretty much just a part of the IPO bubble that will soon destroy itself, if you ask me.

>>16728810
We need that data. Then you'll see a flying fish corpse.

>>16729776
BRUH MAKE IT STOP
IM UNDEREXPOSED

>>16729693
I'm surprised you don't hold vegan stocks with you already holding Nintendo.

>>16729750
BP says to the smaller company "I'll give you a bunch of money, in exchange, let's develop and market this drug together"
In a nutshell

>>16729811
I would if I could tbqhfam. Speedy ups make speedy downs. I would prefer more of a 45 degree angle type deal instead of this 75 degree climb it's doing.

Oil pumping and futures down roughly 0.35%

So Trump bombed the shit out of Qassem Soleimani and killed him.

We're going red tomorrow in the wake of the upcoming war between the US and Iran, aren't we?

>>16729820
This reminds me of the time I commanded a SEAL unit back in 2007. My men were on strict orders to keep away from food outlets due to locals contaminating food on behalf of the Taliban. I remember one time we were camped out near Mosul Dam, the guys decided to sneak off to a local Halal Burger Shack. I literally drove an armored vehicle through the restaurant whilst they were ordering, you should have seen the look on their faces.

>>16729713
>>16729761
Another thing: Cymabay had shitty phase 2b results, which the reduction in liver fat were far less than placebo. This might have led to the failure for their P3 trial. Comparing their drug to Genfit's Elafibranor, the reductions and response rates during their P2 were much better.

>>16729776
I’ll test out different ways to use Ichimoku, I have very limited experience with it so far. What I have been using it for so far is, generally, a breakout of the price and lagging span outside of the cloud is a major buy indicator. This has proven in past charts to signal a “go long” perfectly. Thanks to your advice, I have more to look into with Ichimoku and it can do even more.

>>16729891
To be fair, 8890 was a major fib profit target for the big boys. So this sell-off is probably not even related to the indexes dumping. But oil is without a doubt pumping hard because of the news

Holy shit Trump is killing everybody tonight

>>16729817
wow
great post
such a good point

Maybe if vegan stocks had the BOJ doing QE in their favor, and were one of the biggest selling items for this years holiday season.

>>16729872
>>16729891
>tfw I didn't close my longs but I did add USOI
huh. I guess we'll see how this turns out. May just put market sells on closing my calls. Fucking BMY gave back ALL of my gains... bastard stock.

>only bought 10 shares at $16.15
oh shit that is not going to be a good enough hedge

Anyone got the old book reading list that used to be posted on top of every /smg/ thread?

Maybe Trump will bomb Israel to sniff out Epstein colleagues?

The average target price of ONTX is 6.00. Fucking hell, 6 x 12,100 shares, I'd have $72,600. Oh happy day if this happens. That's uh 2.68 times what I make now in a year (before taxes and shit to boot). Let the good news pop soon so this thing will fly ever so high so I can get my green bags in a blink of an eye.

>>16729928
Absolutely seething nigger. Switch only sold highly the holiday ps4 is being phased out. Next year Nintendo stock will plummet.

what do you guys think of TDG ?

>>16729955
Nah I don't think so.
Japanese miracle next year, olympics gonna pump it. God I hope they don't hit a hard recession in Q1...

>>16729991
The only thing that will be pumped is ps5

USOIL now up 3%, told ya. I'm currently up $620, hope someone here was smart enough to long oil when the news hit

>>16730008
>I bought NVDA and not AMD
GUH

>>16729412
Did you go through insurance?

>>16730018
I went long too as soon as they rushed that embassy

>>16730018
you posted after after-hours closed so that wasn't much help.

I'm glad I got my USOI in when I did, but that was just instinct from yesterday's news and I'd been looking to buy it for a long time.

http://join.robinhood.com/rayw32

>>16730021
I'm pretty sure Switch uses nvidia and PS5 will be using AMD.

2020 best longs will be AMD, MSFT and SNE

Somebody use my link.

sitting a bit above breakeven on both ONTX and AMRN desu but I am kinda sad I pussied out of SAVA only for it to moon.

can't get caught up in the past though. learn and go forward. AMRN earnings should be good and ONTX seems to have srs upsides.

Oof. Index futures don't look so hot. Tightening up market correlated stonk stop losses....

>>16730039
yeah that's why I said that...
I'm not too sure about SNE. AMD has run up way way way too fast for me to consider it, but I'm sure it will continue to win, as will MSFT.

NVDA is more of a play on AI, machine learning, artificial intelligence. They're SUPPOSED to be on top of that shit. I don't actually know how to figure out if that's true or not, but it's what they claim.

Wewlads, that was risky.

>>16730064
HOLY SHIT YOU MAD LAD

>>16730033
You still had plenty of time to get into a nice position. Up another 1% now, gonna make fucking bank if this keeps on pumping

>>16730046
>>16730046
I used it to get your account suspended lmfao. Gonna post it in conjunction with racism and antisemitism to get you b& irl too lmfao

what puts you buying tomorrow? Im looking at semis, notably INTC and QCOM since they are usually weaker

Who
/why didn't I close my put spreads and long calls that was toooooo fucking greedy and reckless/
Here?

>>16730083
Not really no... not after I can't access afterhours trading, especially not on my long calls..

>>16730196
Have some money on another platform that allows it, simply for these type of events. That's what I did, follow some popular types on Twitter that is on the ground and take a long(or short) as soon as he has some rumors about major events.
Speaking of major shit. This is clearly not a profit target only dump on indexes like I said earlier, it started as it but now it's because of fear. Makes you think, FIB levels had 8890 target PERFECTLY on the NQ just when the Iran event happened.. kek'd.

>>16730124
No puts planned. Tentative plan is to pull out of index correlated longs remaining or allow them to hit trailing stops depending on how open looks for those. If it's going to be gap down straight in to dip buying then I'll let the stops ride. Fortunately I have no positions in the red so stop outs will just dictate what amount of money I made on those trades.

>>16729095
DARE

>>16730238

I've got to "circle my wagons" and I'm NOT HAPPY about it. These BMY calls are for 1/10 so I might just close them and hope they open up near break even but... shit I'm screwed. I'm so screwed...

>>16730018

>>16730328
>Imbressive...
Well, keep in mind that's a part of my trading strategy. If a trade is unsuccessful I will usually find out within a couple days of entry. Like my try at Transalta Renewables from early this week. Pulled out in two days. That one may bounce soon but I don't baghold to find out. No baghold, take loss fast, use cash for something else. Pretty much.

>>16728441
SNSS

>>16730417
Yeah I like it though... DCA down Has only worked out With me for true conviction names, and even then my conviction wanes when the market Truly seems to hate my stock.

Chink markets starting to dip, may have to dump my BILI call too. Shit, just sell everything into the teeth of a sell off? Might be better for me though, just buy more MRK and PEP calls when we seem to have evened off.

I Have no stops set except for that one GSK stop lmao.

Shit... he really Wasn't supposed too pull the "war on Iran, rally round the flag!" Play until later in the year, and that's only IF his support is waning.

Why didn't you listen?

>>16730530
Probably got some military intel that had to be acted on pronto so they could get that Iranian guy.

For all you fellow lazy "safe" ETFers - when you get more bucks do you just throw it at the same shit constantly, or do you just invest in a separate ticker that has like 90% of the same holdings?

>>16730564
lol I told him go go go and spook the markets. I will always wonder if he really knew something was about to happen.

>>16730589
To be fair, the embassy was just attacked. Something was bound to happen, I don't think anyone expected that.

>>16729223
I'm holding for a few more weeks. Microcaps always have one or two good moon mission in them caused by manipulation before they continue on a price nosedive and eventually go out of business. I've been trading half of the shares I own (buying dips, selling tops) and holding the other half for the aforementioned moon mission. I will liquidate when this happens and move on to the next stock I will exploit in a similar manner.

MAKE SURE TO BUY STOCKS IN MILITARY DEFENSE COMPANIES

You're giving him a lot of credit as a rational actor... I hope you're right.

But I Believe the leakers who say that his briefs are basically pictures and then messages that tell him whatever policy they want to do was his idea and why its good that he did that.

He's just such an old yelling boomer, I've met guys like him and if they had that kind of power I can imagine how they'd behave.

Thanks! Will check out.

Drone strike was in retaliation to 1983 bombing by Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis:

>car bombs exploded at the control tower at the Kuwait International Airport, the Electricity Control Center, and the living quarters for American employees of the Raytheon Corporation, which was installing a missile system in Kuwait.

War would be good for reelection, stupid dumb dumb. Americans have hated Iran since the 70's, and they become very pro-authority. Questioning the president = not supporting the troops, etc.

Even if the prices at the pump go through the roof, I expect it will take a good long while before people get sick of it.

I also don't think this is war yet. Donald will want to delay it until closer to the election, at least until he knows who his opponent is.

If I were all cash right now I would give it the weekend and see how things look on Monday. There is going to be a lot of spasticity on the markets tomorrow as people rearrange their positions, some fear selling in case of war, etc. Over the weekend more news should be out that makes things sound better or worse than they feel at the moment. Like, how does Iran intend to respond? Be reckless and declare war? Be patient and wait for a better time? Send a sternly worded letter?

>>16731511

I don’t think war is going to outshine the positive economic background already in play. And being realistic it isn’t going to be war, just games if anything. I don’t think iran really has the capability nor the balls to wage full scale war or even a sidebar level conflict. And economically they are rather weak. What are they gonna do? We are fucking nato bois. Attacking US assets in iran is basically their go to move

How fucked am I? I took advice from someone who has over $100K in this stock. He claimed it’ll hit 3.50-4 once they post their earnings (14 Jan).

Of course as soon as I bought the calls it tanked. Same guy said he’s not worried, which makes me feel a little better, but damn. At the very least I could’ve bought at the dip. I feel like I fucked up bad and got overzealous.

Sorry anon you might as well get out while you can

Afaik robinhood is the only one with really free options trading so pretty much don't bother with them except for your options. But if you just started I wouldn't even touch options
The rest of the discount brokers (etrade, fidelity, td, schwab) are all free for online equity trades now anyway and their platforms are loads better. Execution is better too
20 bucks isn't going to go far but it doesn't take much. Tbh you ought to start putting your excess cash in it and just buying dividend payers that aren't too shitty. Or index ETFs if you're really broke. The problem with it isn't so much the limited return but that it prices you out of good names and encourages buying pink sheet trash

Is USO a good call choice? Premiums are pretty low.

>>16731753
I could up it to 100, I just don’t want to go deep. Basically gambling. Might buy Walmart stock this summer when it’s at its lowest and sell for Christmas. I know con Edison is supposed to be a reliable dividend. I know nothing of index etf.

definitely a good idea, preemptively buy this stonks. This administration, however, has proved more than once that was able to saber rattle without actually going to war.

I dont even need to look it up, I can tell by the name this is a terrible gimmick etf that will decay to nothing and underperform its underlying. I suggest looking up Closed end funds from the 1980s and decide if youre ok with a guaranteed 80-90% drop on your principal

>>16731865
Is it actually possible to play around over the course of a year and hit 1000 bucks? I’d like to know more about investing but I would only invest for the next 5 years. Once trump is out, probably right before the next election I would cash out. I feel like gun stock is a safe bet, especially if a Democrat gets in. Either way speculation would drive it up in election season.

Don't buy tomorrow. Wait for the "Iran War" news to cool off. Also I wouldn't look at this as gambling but instead an opportunity to start saving. Don't take out whatever you put in. And with such a small amount buy some stocks that are a bit more fun. Dividend would be boring.

High yield funds, closed end funds, Royalty funds, and MLPs have existed since the 80s. Do you ever wonder why you only see ones that start their chart 4-8 years ago? Its because all of the previous have gone to 0

The best of the best, that still exists, is USA (liberty all star fund). that should be the only thing you consider when buying a high yield fund "how does this compare to USA"

I just need a US bank account to open up a robinhood account dont i? Id rather meme it up with you guys, IB seems so restrictive with everything, particularly options

Alright lads, for those in AIMT. AIMT will have their peanut allergy drug approved by Jan 17 (the first and only approved peanut allergy drug). This is certainly priced in, as well as the black box labeling (think of AMRN). There is a 25% short interest, which may mean a possible short squeeze post approval. However, shorts may know something that retail investors do not. Extended labeling and additional warnings may be the reason as to why shorts aren't covering yet. What certainly is not priced in, is a potential BO by Nestle, as they hold 19% of shares. A pediatric allergy marketing position was also opened up and filled last year. This may be setting up for a BO. What are your thoughts, /smg/?

I thought a lot of it had to do with that ETF's are. Still pretty new and prone to closing down because of not enough AUM, so there's a lot of churn and novelty products, but that QYLD and USOI had a promising strategy.

When funds are closed it doesn't mean they just get to take all the money and tell investors to fuck off, as far as I can tell. I hope. Those actually just lost all their money because their investments wound up being totally worthless?

>>16732087
I wouldn't worry about it, after further reflection I've realized and decided that the initial overreaction will be short lived. Do no FOMO into the oil trade tomorrow.

There are many times I've regretted waiting for a dip, but it's NEVER been as harmful as when I didn't wait for the dip, and a sign of support.

>>16732147

>>16732020
SPYG or SPYV until you're competent enough to venture out into individual stocks.

>>16732149
No I dont mean Zero as in they become worthless, you were still paid your dividends buts its always less total return than the underlying. thats why they are a gimmick scam. to drain you of both fees and : since the fund price drops infinitely as it pays you dividends, you are forced to hold to make those returns

>>16731017
You are not going to war with Iran. You can conquer desert, but not mountains.

>>16732170
I can't say it myself as you should always do your own research, but it can be a great buy IF Nestle buys out the company. However, this is speculation at this point of time. The run up to approvals are usually a time to sell to secure your profits. I would wait after approval to see what happens before you buy.

>>16732198
I certainly fucking hope not. I would hope we've had our fill of invading desert countries by now.

That's not ideal. There are advantages to how the funds sell the calls, they use the monthly kind that can't be excecuted early and get taxes at 60% long term gains or something like that, but even then it's not ideal...
