As long as expiration is after Bransons summer flight, then you will be fine.

CNN is going to be a marker for the level of Cornoa Virus hype. Right now one there website they have an entire "LIVE" column on the homepage dedicated to corona news. They are trying to position it against Trump for the coming election.

Thank you based CNN for driving down the discounts and literally killing people in the name of my cheapys.

Should I buy 200 shares of SAVA or 500 shares of GALT?

Well it's CNN and the DNC. One and the same. They choose, not the people, as is the DNC motto. Just look at the "Election" feed. Biden, Biden, Biden, Biden. Gee wiz I wonder who they are running? Could it be the man they hyped up at the end of the Obama admin? Seems like Hillary is too busy pooping her pants and scrubbing Bill's cum on of the buildings on Epstein's Island.

If I could bet I'd put 5k on Biden.

Ok, instead of posting memes, why not post your research on Datadog and why they are cool dudes?

I mean how fucking retarded do you have to be not to see the issue with a Virus that has spread from China to literally every corner of the World in One Month, and had yet unknown characteristics?
I mean it is too late for containment now, but the fact that China is still on lockdown should give them a hint that it's somewhat more dangerous than the Flu.

>>17512469
because Tim Apple said their factories are back to 80% production

>>17512446
IF you assume the chinese aren't falsifying data its very good news from a humanitarian perspective, but economically not really look at that awful PMI number

>>17512366
Unless the news gets a lot worse than what we've seen so far, I'm guessing a green Monday. I don't think one guy dying is enough. After all this red, we're due a green day.

Sold my 3/6 puts on Friday for a nifty profit. Still holding 4/17 puts. Plan on buying more Monday or Tuesday if it's green. Was not ballsy enough to buy calls on Friday, though.

>>17512446

Which people?

>>17512491
Clearly, thats why I bought SPCE and TSLA, very profitable.
But seriously, why do you like datadog? What edge over the market do they have?

>>17512429
sure bud, but the dead cat bounce along with your boomer parents. think about it: if your parents are buying the dip so are a bunch of other retards. the institutions will DUMP ON YOUR ASS and your 1000% will turn to 0.

I'm just saying, if Pooh Bear sends his worker bees to the factories before the thing has truly dissipated we're going to get a second wave of the chinky aids.

Uh-oh, Biden is finally talking like he should be doing. I wonder if this win can make him rally again, that would make Sanders seeth hard

In my retarded opinion, we are due another 1500 points off Nasdaq and everything else just to put us even with Sep-Dec 2018. I would wait till then to start buying in.

>>17512553
Why those?

>>17512507
Yes, I’m half joking. I got my 10k in cash right now. BUT all the autists on here are betting on PUTs, along with Reddit, therefore I think they’re gonna get fucked lol.

So I’m probably gonna wait until this stablezises a little bit more in the following weeks, then bet on AMD because they make the chips for pretty much everything now

>>17512505

I don't like it, but other people do. Same thing I saw in Carvana a few years ago when I bought it for $30/share. They still haven't turned a profit but all they had to do was keep opening up more meme car vending machines.

>>17512572
He's nudging up real cozy to the average american male life expectancy so...

The reaction of the Federal Government and CDC is really odd when you compare it to the State Governments.

It looks to me like the Feds are worried about the Markets panicking and that is the reason for their next to non existent outbreak containment measures.
They keep saying everything is under control and there is nothing to worry about, but the facts on the ground just keep getting worse.

>>17512593
He needs to go back to Vermont and tell people to get off his government's lawn.

CVNA just got double whammied with earnings and market wide correction. Pretty good time to buy

>>17512571
I'm saying this drop is gotta be at least as bad as that one, which was about a 24% total decline. Think we're sitting at 15% or so off the top right now.

We have a lot of the same problems as then like absurd P/E ratios. Add to that a pandemic fucking with supply chains and demand and we have a correction on our hands at the very least.

Again, just my retarded opinion. I just think it's got more to drop before you start layering back in.

>>17512630
LMT for double sure if you bet market recovers, Corona chan gets sleepy, and the Greece/Turkey/Syria deal heats up.

>>17512660
>gotta be at least as bad as that one
Why?

>>17512635
Actually this is good pairing with TSLA. Dealerships are phasing out and online car sales websites will be absolutely key, just look at the online house buying market, Zillow is killing it.

>>17512622
watch the entire democratic voter base catch it on super tuesday

What is this weekend wallstreet everyone is talking about. Is this accurate? Who is trading on the weekend?

>>17512680
>absurd P/E ratios
>pandemic

Add to that global economies like Germany and China were already super leveraged and on the brink of recession anyway. China is pretty much fucked at this point even if the virus was solved tomorrow. They have a huge private debt problem and their economy was already slowing down.

>>17512635

I sold a couple months ago. I never thought it would work since the dealership model will never go away for political reasons. I only bought it because I knew people would fall for the vending machine meme.

Same thing with DDOG. It's a shit company but people will fall for the cute dog meme and the company just has to keep the illusion of growth potential alive for awhile even if the basement is on fire. I'll sell at $60

>>17512685

Maybe it was Redfin actually? They seem to be doing well.

>>17512621
or they have sensible people in charge.
I fear the reason the Feds are so complacent is because Trump is more concerned about the Stock Market than an Epidemic.

Also, when the Surgeon General asks the public not to buy masks because the Government needs them, my faith in their preparedness is greatly reduced.

>>17512685
>Dealerships are phasing out

No they aren't. I wish they would. I wish I could buy directly from the manufacturer, but I never will in this timeline.

>>17512476
no it's some super nested game theory

P/e should only be used when comparing similar businesses in the same sector. High and low is relative to each sector and also size of company in sector, whether stock is trading on current numbers or speculative rapid growth bets.

what about
"I'm selling because I am dead"

>>17512763
Yes they are, or at least they will stop existing as they are now. Giant parking lots filled with product they can barely move? Most of their money is from scamming people with bad loans and proprietary hardware that can only be fixed there. Tesla sells online only now with maybe a few small showrooms which can even fit in a mall. Eventually cars will be self driving, you could just order a test drive of a car online and the car will just drive to your home for you to try it then drive back to storage when done. The cost of a dealership, especially with increasing land prices, is simply a bad business. Websites like Carvana will boom as people snub dealerships.

>>17512845
slow and steady wins the race my friend, do not get careless

>>17512872
yeah, I guess the point is singular news stories don't matter too much.

It's more what people are predicting afterwards and into the future that changes. Such as what effects the death has on news coverage going forward.

Because it was saturday morning its unlikely to get a reactionary move.

>>17512600
The markets would’ve panicked ALOT LESS if they actually DID ANYTHING. Not testing the masses + asymptomatic spread = hello Corona!!!

>>17512793
go back faggot

>>17512887
Consult the colors of the wind.

>>17512791
but if the wider population does nothing to contain the spread among itself then it won't matter what kind of stuff the health workers wear because they won't be able to deal with it.

Also, how the hell was Containment succesful in China if that shit literally spread across the entire world? The purpose of containment is to prevent spread.

Based Biden Bounce Monday, now people don't need to be scared of communism winning and it might make people breath a sigh of relief all I really hope for is a move to 3050 so i can make a tidy profit after that all is cool you can lower the market 10% next week who cares

>>17512897

Literally sold the top of tech bubble, bought buncha property at the bottom of housing dip, and sold the top of this bubble.

Learning from him, he’s got an open mind to risky shit but also has pretty good idea of what’s up

I read a cute post on wsb about a guy who sells all but one of his options, which he calls his "wiggler". He lets the wiggler ride out the remainder of the period before expiration to see how he would have done had he held until then. I left 1 of 20 puts in my account Friday morning after selling the other 19 for a pretty good profit (~500%), so we'll see where it goes from here.

I feel that if it spreads to a certain amount of the population that masks aren't really going to do much to stop the spread. It makes more sense to keep PPE for workers so they don't get sick and then things snowball out of control. I get your point though.

Guys a boomer got interviewed who caught Corona. Shits sounds straight out of Cthulu

“I had a bit of a cough, but I chalked it up to the dry air in the cabin,” he said.

Then he fell asleep, and when he awoke stateside, “I knew I had a high fever,” he said.

“My wife touched me and she knew I was burning up. I went up to the military doctors, they took my temperature and immediately put me in a quarantine area.”

By the time he was admitted to the hospital, his fever began to die.

The rest of his symptoms, including coughing up mucus, have been mild, he said.

“The good news is my fever broke by the time I came to the hospital,” he said. “I had a little fever, a mild fever the first day. And then over a night ago, I had a little fever as well, that just came for about an hour and then disappeared.”

Doctors take his temperature every three hours, and have instructed him to do breathing exercises. He does laps around his room to keep his blood flowing and tries to stay optimistic.

One positive, he said, is room service at all hours.

“I just finished a delicious lunch of grilled cheese . . . I’m looking forward to a cheeseburger tonight and baked potato,” he said. “I believe it’s set up 24/7, so I could have a midnight snack if I wanted to.”

>>17513066 >>17513114 >>17513125

Why?

Talk to any pharmacist in a Chinese suburb and you'll see why they made the announcement. Chinese households have three generations living within them, they eat communally and they all use a new mask everyday. The only thing we're not prepared for is how crazy Chinese people are.

Hey guys. Please explain to me, somebody who has managed to double his money every few months via swing trading and the odd day trade(nothing fancy, anywhere from a few hundred to a thousand dollars gross per day) what the benefit of options are. Seems like higher risk for the same reward.

>>17513566
Because of the cases in the states a decent amount of them have it from an unknown origin for one and for two peoples mindsets are usually its all happening in x country not here we're not effected plus that video from China that surfaced will scare people even more since it brings the situation to them and makes it seem more real

>>17513609
Well the media has already stirred things up to a fever pitch anyway.

>>17513517
They are making the biggest bull trap for you suckers. The fed can’t do anything about a pandemic. It has a 10% mortality for people with heart disease (which is every american boomer) and it infects 5-7 people per person. The CDC finally started letting other labs test for it. It’s already here, the number of cases will skyrocket. Stocks will crash and that will be the least of your concerns.

>>17513606
depends on the option strategy, you can straddle strangle, long, short, credit, debit, butterfly, iron condor.
It gives you options (no pun intended) on making money in different ways.

>>17513190
Wow, I want Corona now

>>17513493

>>17513620
For those without television they for some reason use social media for news and now that has people spreading a video of people suffering in China i think people are so scared they'll continue to sell Monday as well.

>>17512363
wait for SAVA to hit $3

>>17513606
if you know what you're doing, options can give you even more control over your risk levels and your positioning (notably, adding time components).
you can do all kinds of things with options, there are immense possibilities for different kinds of strategies.

if you're a gambler, you can use them for high-risk high-reward trades with time limits, that is how many people end up using them in the "Robinhood" demographic

>"As of 20 February, 2,114 of the 55,924 laboratory confirmed cases have died (crude fatality ratio [CFR: 3.8%) (note: at least some of whom were identified using a case definition that included pulmonary disease).

>The overall CFR varies by location and intensity of transmission (i.e. 5.8% in Wuhan vs. 0.7% in other areas in China).

Drops to 0.7% mortality rate just outside of "I AM EATING LIVE BAT PENIS FOR STRONG PENIS MAGIC" town.

So the virus is an absolute hoax, the real question is what the media coverage will cause in it's wake.

This thread is uhhhh terrible. It was pretty normal for people to talk about Jews and Hitler and the media and the Dem debates but now we’re full on /pol and it’s bad. Lots of zoomer doomers and straight up retards.

That one guy who posted his gains on the corona virus thread did some major damage that will take a while to work off.

Or I’ve been here too long. But what do you care. I know nobody cares but I'm only going to be alive for three days instead of next month or whatever I said. Pretty sure the dry footjobs made me insanely more depressed but I can't stop thinking about it. Plus everyone here will literally coom after I die since everyone on earth hates me and for no reason. It's ok I'll die a raunchy wild meme. I'm an ironic sex offender and j can't show my dick anywhere. I live in hiding and i can't make any friends for the resr of my life. I'm employed and very wealthy, It even have enough money to shoot myself. I'm getting gangstalked bt CIA etc
I'm 68 still live in my utility room with Dad etc who get attacked by my enemies. I have literally everything. Absolutely everything and these hormones are helps jg. There's zero answer to my problems

Reminder: When Big Pharma comes knocking the Green Bags start Flying.. Marketcaps mean shit if Big Pharma wants the company bad enough. What the CEO personally wants doesn't mean shit either. Long as the Board has the majority votes and shareholders give it the thumbs up then Big Pharma wins. Really though you'd have to be dumb as hell to turn down a Fat Green Bag (or two) stuffed full of Cash.


With all the good news it's important not to let the lure of the Fat Green Bag to get outta hand. Sure you'll get a Fat Bag but over doing it is just setting yourself up for despair and gloom if it doesn't come to pass. I look at it like this: If I get 45 - 50 per then hey its all good for me. If I get over 50 per then that's just extra gravy. I'm not talking about just the buyout price either but also the stock price itself. Low balling your expectations will save yourself a lot of mental pain later. Then if you exceed those expectations you can celebrate like mad.

There was also another case of community transmission in Santa Clara county as well today.

Expect a few in New York over the week and possibly monday as it seems to take them 1 day to report a case and just today they can start testing
I expect it to be a Italian tourist
And then they will soon find cases in every Bourgh but statin island.
Newark will follow soon after and Philadelphia after that.
I expect a death in NY in the coming weeks, and then video photo age of people collapsing throughout US cities
It’s going to be a shit show even with a 2% fatality rate (200x the flu) which is still 7 million if everyone gets it in the US

I believe it will definitely reach there, and eve higher. The issues stemming from corona virus supply chain disruption will ripple through the economy and it will hit Q2-3 earnings reports.

S ame here, 5 years working in another city where nobody gives a shit about me. The few real friends I made left long ago for better jobs abroad, Can't follow them because low IQ retard with no graduate degree and zero networking skills.

GF moved with me couple of years ago and supported her to pursue a masters degree. She started discussions for stupid materialistic stuff, like "why did you order this I do not like X omg day is ruined" or "the car is making noises it''s breaking oh shit why did you make us go outside today? your fault" and other problems she knew I could easily make dissapear by paying money, because that is why I worked for, so we did not have poorfag worries.
Then she proceeded to obliterate 7 years of relationship by cheating with an ugly bastard she had just met at school.
Had couple of girls flirting to me before all that happened, rejected because muh morality. Now I regret it as no one talks to me anymore, Now their stare at me with that "what a creepy loser" look. Guess it's part of getting old and gaining just a few Kg ruins your market value. Feel like I wasted my best years, there is no coming back.

I come from a low income family in a 3rd world shithole, so I sacrificed everything to get a nice job in a good company and reach economic stability to start a family but now it is completely empty and pointless, pay is good but job is boring as fuck.

Wanna kill myself, only things stopping me is thinking of the process (still not that suicidal yet or else I would have done it without thinking) and the unnecesary pain I would cause to my family who should not be suffering because I ruined my life.
Looking for a way to go back and live tthe rest of my unworthy life as a shitcoin retired NEET, and enjoy my parents while they are still here.
Found this place, frens are entertaining, reading new threads is the most enjoyable thing of my day, I have learned, FOMO'ed, keked and cried, but now my only hope is that we will al make it.

If only I bought them for a week longer...

401k contributions are automated directly from payroll into whatever fund allocation it's been set to. Also paydays can be weekly bi-weekly or monthly depending on the company. You don't have any idea what you're talking about.

All jokes aside, I'm slowly entering long positions on certain leveraged ETFs as the prices get better and better. I've only bought a little now but if the crash keeps going and results in the S&P hitting -30 or -40% I'll buy a whole lot more. Read the following and give it some thought.
SSO (DBPG for euroanons) is a 2x leveraged ETF based on the S&P 500 and it is one of the few leveraged ETFs that existed before the Great Financial Crisis of 2008. Had you bought SSO (DBPG) at the literal top of the market before the recession in October 2007, as of this moment you would have gains of 176%. Had you bought the underlying SPY on the same day you would have gains of 98%. So had you bought the leveraged ETF, even at the worst possible time, you still would have ended up with almost double the gains today.
Remember this the next time somebody throws shade on leveraged ETFs because of volatility decay. Buy the index based leveraged ETFs and win. Simple as that. And start buying now. Coronavirus could be as bad as the GFC and if you start buying in now with a little money and buy in more later as the prices drop you will still come out much better in the long run than buying SPY or worse, doing nothing at all. I'm buying and I'll be here when this thing is over to brag about my gains. Do not be afraid. We will get through this and this is your opportunity. Join me and get rich.

From March 1st, Internet in China becomes much slower and highly restricted. People will be arrested for uploading photos or video if related to the virus. People will be arrested if they make any comment using keywords related to the virus. All official documents relating to the outbreak have been ordered destroyed. Factories are ordered to turn on all machinery to consume power, despite having no materials to process or workers to operate them. This is to simulate productivity return through energy use and emissions. https://mobile.twitter.com/jenniferatntd
