>>55793402
Well, you tried. Beter luck next time.

>>55793425
Based Biden crashing the economy so we can slurp the dip. I am being completely unironic.

Do you really think Bidenomics will permit a bad inflation print?

>crash
Actually a minor dip before we pump through 4600. Zoom out.

>>55793490
it's all good. it was my first transaction with their rewards program, so i got another free stack for that. next time i'm just going to order them to go and eat in my car

>>55793491
I'm surprised you get your food at all for tipping a buck.

>>55793491
those wagies actually find a dollar to be more insulting than receiving nothing

>>55793491
You think that's bad, I do gardening for a hobby and there's a seller on Etsy that I would always buy good quality heirloom non-GMO wildflower seeds for cheap.

Bag of 30,000 seeds only costed $7.80 back in 2020. Now in 2023, same amount of seeds for the same type of flowers from same seller costs fucking $16 now. Inflation can go eat a dick.

>>55793439
Until gas is <3 bucks a gallon inflation is gay and still exists

at IHOP there was like a boomer car club having a breakfast meetup and one of them pulled out the paper to show his buddies that the paper says you need to earn $145k to buy a house in this city
it was good entertainment

I sold my bag for a $449 loss

I've been forecasting the short term sentiment for a few tickers using some client data. How do I turn this into big buck, big boy plays? All the options have been priced in already

>>55793803
You could just trade the underlying stock on margin if you don't like option premium

>>55793803
Is scentiment even useful?

>>55793824
i'd imagine so

>>55793820
Just open positions on margin and sell them once I see clients buying puts? This doesn't feel like a big boy play unless I keep long term and avoid capital gains
>>55793824
It helps predict the next day at least. Up to nearly a month. Sooner or later it gets difficult to track since these guys might end up opening positions. I mainly mean another guys trades. Assuming they're smarter than me

You think oil is going to run to 120 again? not a chance in the near-medium term bucko. The Saudis reducing their production to stimulate prices simultaneously means they have signficant spare capacity. Everyone else has been expanding their capacity as well, especially the UAE if I am not mistaken. You better pray for another war.

>>55794058
How do I profit from a US war with Mexico?

>>55794058

>>55794103
Eventually at some point. Maybe not right now. The market is currently bullish on oil. Maybe not $120 WTI bullish, but bullish nonetheless.

the image is from 2021 when silver was actually $30. PM bugs are almost as bad as doomers

Another day. I couldn't wait to bag. The urge overcame me. So I took out a cash advance on my new zero interest card. Bagged all my stocks on my list. Will pay it off on the 15th. Good thing I did. DIS flew past my buy limit during after hours due to earnings. Read Vol 10 of My Friend's Sister is into me. Going by how things were left in this one I think things will finally start to enter the end game. It's time. After 10 volumes and the reader finally learning who the main dude wants to be with and the other stuff its time close the deal on it. Otherwise the series ends up being a farce and you've wasted 10+ volumes for no pay off. Hopefully in vol 11 (which sucks that it won't happen till next year so fucking 6 months of waiting) the main dude will finally fucking confess to the girl and get it over with.

>>55793949
Avoiding capital gains is exactly why clftranny lost a million dollars. He held so long because he didn't want to pay taxes and ended up losing a fuckton of money. It was fun to watch though.

>>55794129
Oil should still provide a healthy fcf at these levels for companies. Of course compared to last year its worse but this is still very healthy. PBR got a divvy cut to 45% fcf from 60% fcf and it STILL has held value.

>Disney somehow rose
Kek, just like Budweiser. You really can't bet against globohomo companies that push the agenda because (((they))) will always boost the companies price. Either way, this crab market is killing me. I'm considering putting a significant chunk of my money into SOXS. I don't like the current trend.

I'm seriously considering selling everything tomorrow, we have hit resistance multiple times and I started noticing that people are treating bad news as actual bad news and the market is not pumping with retarded optimism like it did before.

Houses and cars are also coming down in price I noticed, I think its time to be rational again, and the rational move is to get the fuck out of risky equities at their peak value.

What do you guys think? Talk me down, otherwise I'm going to liquidate my 200k portfolio tomorrow and lock in a 30% YTD gain

I'm serious, don't ignore this post, your post will make an impact on my financial future.

>>55794295
30% ytd is good. Definitely beating the market. There will be new opportunities if you wait for them, even if you are wrong.

>>55794226
What is your these on tomorrow and Friday data drops?

>>55794289
That's the only reason I can think that companies that openly shit on their loyal customer base and self sabotage are so arrogant about it. They know Larry fink will be their to boost their stock no matter what anyway.

>>55794341
ESPN bet is going to fail fucking miserably. This is literally their last ditch effort to save Disney. Nobody is going to gamble through ESPN because tons of other companies do it way better, plus ESPN is shit to begin with. Might be able to get a few boomers with their watch here bet here gimmick but I doubt it's going to do real well. PENN had barstool before and they actually have a younger following and it didn't work out for even them.

>>55794379
Yes, but put everything into platnium and LINK

>>55794396
>Higher than expected inflation
I think this too but I got shaken out of my puts for small profit before the big dump late into close.

>>55794185
So yesterday or last night I dunno which somehow or other I pulled something in my back. Naturally today was the day I actually had to work at my job. So yeah my poor back. On the bright side; least I don't have to ask my Wife to cut my toenails cause honestly I couldn't right now if I had to. Did that sunday night.

>>55794409
Penn needs more states to legalize gambling and being tied to the frat dudes at barstool wasn't helping. Disney had enough pull to get the ball rolling (they could single handedly get California to legalize it)especially if they can capture more of the states that get onboarded by being the only ones to do gambling in a safe manner. ESPN BET is going to be fucking huge.

>>55794450
It's not, anyone that sports bets regularly either uses fanduel or draftkings and has been for a while. The only way ESPN could crush them is by offering outrageous promo offers and run at a deficit for awhile to get people to make the switch, which they don't have the time or money to do that. I'd be shocked if they are still around on 5 years. ESPN is probably just going to end up a streaming service which nobody is going to pay for ESPN. It's trash content anymore.

>>55794319
Yep, like I've said before, this is a clown market. It used to have some sense years ago, but now companies that shouldn't even be invested in are soaring. Never bet against the agenda.
>>55794341
>>55794409
It is going to be hard to get a foothold into the gambling business when, like you mentioned, anon, Fanduel and Draftkings exist and control the market overwhelmingly. More states are opening up to gambling, and I think that is the most important time to push your service. It will be damn near impossible to get people to switch to ESPN betting when they already have a platform they gamble from and know well. My state recently allowed online gambling at the beginning of this year, and the amount of ads being pushed everywhere by Draftkings was insane. They would have to entice people with a lot of benefits to switch or use one of their services as a bundle plan. Sort of how Verizon recently partnered with Disney+.

>>55794396
>real economy slowing down (I work for company that is selling machining equipment to manufacturers)

This. Our order intake is just a few weeks long. Nobody is buying in the market and nobody is reducing costs neither because they can’t. Just running down stock hoping people start buying again and this is in a defensive industry.

Ken bros now is our chance to make it.

You guys could be right about ESG and that larry fink bastard handing out freebies to Disney and other stocks.

Just at this shit here; https://twitter.com/StockMKTNewz/status/1689361846396997632

No way that company would be pumping with such a ripoff business model from theme parks to shitty streaming services.

Patience bullbro, this is a beartrap before NVDA smashes earnings and sends the entire market up to a yearly high. Boboids who think this is the "crash" are simply retarded, crashes don't happen slow enough to allow retail to become bearish.

>>55795119
You also have some misconception. Nobody in this market is your friend. Other buyers push the price up, yes, that's good for you. But they also wait for the opportunity to sell, which will let the price drop and is negative for you.

What about you, are you never going to sell anything? Will other people then also cry like you about you selling and shedding 100$?

>>55795343

bull moves last around +20%. We hit almost 30% at the peak last month. Do the math.

>>55794295
You should have ended this with,
"I'm serious, don't ignore this post, reply to this or your mother.."

Anyways, Why sell everything? I'm no bull, can't judge. I'm shorting.

The sentiment seems to be shifting. Oil is rising dangerously. Even Natgas is attempting to breakout. Other commodities (orange juice, cocoa, sugar, coffee (robusta), beef) have gone crazy. There might be another hike if not more. The rates will stay high, otherwise Oil will EXPLODE. So yeah, risky assets will lose attractiveness and rich people might take their money out and put it into safer assets.

US got downgraded, several banks got downgraded, others are on watchlist.
Japan will probably start hiking end of the year. They hinted at that and maybe they will realize, hopefully sooner than later, that their retarded "wait it out"-game won't work.

Uh, I think this whole dump is fake and gay. Big Money has to get in somehow. They know the market isn't expecting huge inflation increases. We can adjust to credit downgrades if it means we're averting recession. Treasury does not need to go up further than 4%. Unless tomorrow's CPI is a blowout increase. Or next month's (measuring this month, which had the biggest credit card spending in America on record.) If you're thinking about going long here, maybe you can start out small, whatever, but I'm investing in chips companies

$200 NVDA

>>55795797
Some of the indios ones aren't bad looking. At least the ones from the Andes mountains. Give that dark skin asian look.

As far as CPI its pretty clear based on today theres a lot of unease building and if CPI prints to the upside and shows inflation hasn't decelerated as fast as fed hoped (if it normalizes to 6% that means fed policy is not restrictive) This has a pretty high chance of likely since we'll be rolling off a 0% print from last year for the next two months and oil prices have normalized higher, and sticky CPI still running hot.

I just don't get it. The trend is your friend. If there's some conjecture they've deduced from the jobs data, inventory data, etc. then fine I'll see it. But it sure looks like Big Money is saying "Wait wait hold on" with the timing of that downgrade right before the Historic Late August pullback that everyone thinks they're getting as always. And it's not like my gas prices have shot up. I remember how that looked.

If credit cards this month fuck up inflation for next month, that I could see. But I would have to see prices shift somewhere first

But Latinas are Mid-Southamerican, mixed with whites from spain primarily. This is why I don't get the 3000 years.

>>55795873
Gas prices in my area are higher than they were during the oil spike. i'm looking at 3.80/g currently. Its not just gas prices at the pump. This leads to kicking the can further down the chain raising prices all over. Then because of inflation expectations going up.. businesses raise prices faster to try and get ahead of it leading to more spiral and it becoming harder to break it.

>>55795883
Latin is a language from Ancient Rome. This is fun. Latin now refers to all Latin languages, which are languages which originated from Portugal, Italy, and Spain, even Andorra. Latin America also now refers to the settling colonizers from these three countries (even France, which I didn't list, but which is also Latin based, and has a country in South America!)

You see, it's really quite interesting that we now refer to these Portuguese and Spanish women as Latin, or Latino, or Latina, respectively, (and not France or Italy?? Why are they not Latin?!) but regardless

They are hot as shit.

C'mon, don't try to be a smartass, I know that.
When you say LATINA, you mean South America. I also don't think that US men call spanish women Latinas.
In Europe nobody says Latina to spanish or italian women. That term is definitely coined by the name of the contintent "Latinamerica". So women from this place are Latinas.

So are romanians also latinas by your new definition of that word? Or do they fall together with italian and french?

A Latineurope doesn't exist. Spanish will rather call themselves Iberros or whatever, since their peninsula is called Iberia. I'm sure they wouldn't even want to be called latins, cause then you'd mix them with SA.

For real. I’m glad they got the pay bump and better insurance, but it’s bad for profits, which means bad for growth, which means bad for shareholders. At least this is a step in the right direction and hopefully other unions see this and make a push. The middle class dies when unions die.

They can also demand more productivity from each worker by dangling these $170k driver positions in their face. It’s more or less taking a play from the railroads, opportunity for good paying jobs but a lot of strings attached.

>>55796056
Yes, I'm not against it. I'm for it. Just saying that it's not really a reason to go long. As an investor that might be bad. For the people it's good and it's necessary. FUCK investoors.

>>55796063
These contract increases don't even account for inflation until it hits the 5 year market. So everyone covered by it generally is taking it to the face for four years eating inflation costs from the last five years and new inflation.

I'm gonna long food stocks too

>>55796003
College is a scam anyway unless your wanting a highly special type career. For the general "meh" job its a fucking waste of money and time. I realized this long ago. Which is why I got certs and ended up doing work for a state govt, not in what the certs are in but still ended up doing alright. Over the hump and counting down the years to retirement bliss. Slightly under 14 years to go. (40 now).

>>55796087
On that matter I can't tell if higher prices are good or bad for the companies. Sugar exploded, Cocoa exploded hard. Is that now good for Hershey, Lindt etc.? Can they counter the higher material cost with price hikes? I don't think they will be able to do that in such a manner to counter the extreme material cost increases.

>>55796018

I just feel like they all used to consider themselves as being Latin, but then the Moors happen and muddled up all the Spaniards and France was like whoa, whoa we're not Latins anymore. And now it's the Colombians you're referring to.

I can't play XOM anymore. It just doesn't make sense. Some people here were saying the Saudis don't care and that's it. They'll change the fuckin price but XOM is doing buybacks since 2022 all the way thru 2024, like 50b dollars, so there's a lot of things going on there

>>55796087

>>55796101
> Can they counter the higher material cost with price hikes
They can to a point. And that point is pricing out impulse buyers which only really works for sugary drinks and candy bars. Rice on the other hand is a staple, and outright necessity in some regions. So products with price hikes couldn’t be avoided or substituted.

I just spent like $160

Kek bagggggieeeess

>>55796123
*siiiiip**ahhh* Yep. Gotta spend money to make money.

>>55796145
That's true, but I mostly just bought a bunch of bullshit for my new apartment
Whenever I spend money, I feel bad... and then I remember that at the end of the month I'll have like $6k extra to put in savings... and then I still feel bad. I don't like to spend money

>>55796160
> I don't like to spend money
spend it friend. It’s all yours.

>>55796117
Moors didn't reach to france. At least not in middle ages. Can't say what spanish refered to themselves in middle ages. Probably latin. I don't even know when the spanish language materialized. Must have happened after the fall of rome. So by then they might have not thought of themselves as latin anymore.

>>55796123
I'm thinking about buying the IIYAMA Gold Phoenix, for 162 Euros (refurbished). I need some higher quality monitor. But no IPS shit, that stuff is GRAINY. Letters/Text looks GARBAGE on IPS. I don't get it, is it just me? TN has shit colours yes, but the text is fine. IPS fucks my eyes.

>>55796168
The worst part is... I'm saving and investing all this money, but I honestly can't think of anything to spend it on in the future
So why must I save?
I do not know

>>55796176
Even if you don't buy a bunch of things the comfort of a safety net is satisfying enough.

>>55796123
On what?

>>55796202
I have savings to cover 19 months of expenses... and that's just my savings in cash.

>>55796211
Going to have 12k in cash by end of year. Could pay off mortgage faster, or put towards roth.. but I also need a large savings so thinking 6k goes to roth and then 6k sits cash in personal investment.

>REPOST since the first is combined with other stuff:

I'm thinking about buying the IIYAMA Gold Phoenix, for 162 Euros (refurbished). I need some higher quality monitor, with better resolution, not FHD or worse. But no IPS shit, that stuff is GRAINY. Letters/Text looks GARBAGE on IPS. I don't get it, is it just me? TN has shit colours yes, but the text is fine. IPS fucks my eyes. And no, it's not the resolution. Full HD-IPS is unbearable (I tested more than 3 different screens (Fujitsu, HP, ASUS, DELL). Full HD-TN is better, so higher resolution TN should be even better.

Anybody has the same issue with IPS?

>>55796223
Can't deduct mortgage payments if you pay that off

>>55796226
all that matters is viewing angle so i can shrimp up in my chair and fuck my back up

>>55796240
Paying off mortgage faster is an easy choice since it would be a 7.5% rate and we're not in ZIRP anymore so SPy going up 10-15% a year is not as likely.

>>55796210
Like I said >>55796160 some shit for my new apartment. I needed a step ladder because it's a loft style and the ceilings are very tall and I can't reach the top of my closet shelves (I'm 6'). The ladder was like $50. Also some ice trays and freezer safe bucket because this fridge doesn't have an ice maker... That was like $11 (I think I got ripped off). Some of those floor pads to put under furniture ($18), some shower curtain hooks ($12), a new phone charger cable ($13). Also some socks while I was there ($16). Also some snacks including a giant Kit Kat...
I also stopped at JACK on the way back for dinner, and had to wait like 10 minutes while they refilled the Dr. Pepper ($KDP)... and then the guy gave me literally 1 single solitary napkin.
Maybe this is why I don't like spending money. Everything is a fucking ripoff

>>55796259
You don't have a fixed rate?

>>55796242
Viewing angle isn't important for me. IPS wins in that regard. As long as the monitor is ergonomic it's ok. Also viewing angle fucks up colours primarily, which I don't care cause I primarily READ and look at GRAPHS.

>>55796280
I dont have a mortgage at all because family/lawyers haven't finished settling the title so it can be sold to me clean.

>>55796306
Ah

>>55796314
aside from buying a car I don't really for see many capital expenses to keep a large savings now that I am dealing with home ownership. The Heater/boiler is going to be new, the foundation has already been stabilized.. roof was repaired in 2018. I could probably get away with just 3 months of savings and then pump mortgage to pay it off and not get retarded gambling.

>>55796285
i have a TN QHD for years, its got decent color, decent viewing angle, ergonomic, and pulls high hz for gaming and smoothness for eye strain, i can recommend. I don't think benq is the best but i got it on sale so

>>55796327
>Heater/boiler is going to be new
At least you can buy yours like you want. In germany no more OIL. And gas only with restrictions, from 2024 onwards.

>>55796342
BENQ is fine. I have an old one with full HD. But the white is BAD. Can't tell if it was like that from the start. Bought a 22 incher for second pc (small table) from LG and the white looks like white in comparison to the BenQ. Still, it did its service.

Ah, the Gold phoenix iiyama GB2888UHSU-B1, is an UHD TN monitor. I can't find a QHD-TN monitor. Expect maybe 27 inches, but what do I need 27 inches with QHD, it's the same as 24 with FullHD pixelwise.

Perfect would be a 24 incher with QHD or UHD with TN, but I think that doesn't even exist (UHD at least).

>>55796350
Here in the US the big push by the government is for people to install heat pumps.. but few places in the U.S outside of California can use them. In my area ambient temp drops to 20-30 freedom units during winter and the heat pumps wouldn't be able to provide enough heated water

>>55796391
Lol, what do you think it is in germany? it's almost a mandate. They were going to ban oil and gas entirely in 2024. By 2045 they are banned completely.

>>55796400

Wonder if I should short or long auto stocks? Tempting...

https://tnc.news/2023/08/09/canada-new-vehicle/

Why doesn't /smg/ have merch?

>>55796547
I don't trade on macro but I think auto manufacturers should be in good shape in short term. It's going to be a problem when their inventory gets back up and demand drops off. Not a problem now. The most successful will manage their manufacturing rate accordingly in anticipation. The shitty ones will fuck it up.

>>55796547
I'm short BMW. But I did it way too early. There certainly will be some blood soon, since the chinese are trying HARD to establish themselves, especially in EV (electric).

The question is, which EU/US carmaker will get wrecked in that war. Maybe I shouldn't have picked BMW. I'll hold now and get out as soon as I can and reallocate my money into shorting the DAX or the swedish index harder.

You might look into Stellantis, price is pretty high. They produce Chrysler, Fiat, Peugeot and other. The question essentially is... Will middle class cars die and only Premium (BMW, Mercedes, Porsche etc.) and low class survive? BMW currently is heavily banking on their premium, especially since China lacks premium brands currently. Li Auto is trying to become premium

Can only find it for +280 Euros. Also it's VA. Have not tested VA and don't want to have the same hazzle as with IPS, but thanks.

As I said, the other I can get for 162, which is pretty cheap for 4k.

>>55796695
>>55796666
Just saw it's also 31,5inches, which is way too big. 28 is too big already. As I wrote later, 24 would be great, but there is nothing with 24 UHD TN.

I was thinking of swapping pbr for EWZ since it has a sizeable yield and Brazil has a long ways it can cut rates. But I am also bullish on PBR after a story that they might be expanding their operations into Bolivia to secure fields for energy but also to mine lithium.

>>55796710
who?

>>55796707
it's not too big for trading, you need at least 2 charts and I am struggling with 4k

>>55796123

>>55796815
I had no clue what you were talking about, since I don't know EWZ, but PBR is probably Petreleo Brasi. So you are talking about Oil companies... I can't tell you. No clue how South America is doing. Investments might grow there since OPEC is becoming more and more aggressive, but at the same time, SA will probably also demand higher prices since everything goes up and for some countries energy could be a huge part of their GDP, as for Venezuela I think (at least it was like that, I think)

Really insane, many companies report less order, less sales, but they all make more money. Fuckin inflation man.

IBM has the same market cap as Qualcomm.
IBM has a PE ratio of 70 while Qualcomm of 15.
What does IBM have to be so fucking bullish? Qualcomm at least has a meme plays that are feasable (ARM CPUs, IoT, 5G and 6G and smart cars) while IBM is banking everything on quantum computing while its current business is slowly receding and they are unable to create new succesful businesses.
I simply can't understand how IBM is so expensive or why people are so bullish on them.

Does anyone here has a position on KO?

I have been seeing lots of signs repeatedly of this brand which made me interested, but Idk if it makes sense to get into it

>Current price
$61.06
>Dividends
-Paid quarterly; 3.01% annual yield
-Period of 33 years for the yield to pay the principal, assuming 0% inflation in that period (lol)
>Other considerations
-Satanic cult brand, featuring a mark of the beast reference in its logo (666)
-Attempts to destroy humanity along other S&P500 brands
-It sells products that destroy the health of those who consume them
-I want to joke with normie family that whenever they buy Coca Cola a small portion of what they are paying goes to my pockets, for humoristic and ego reasons

How would you approach it?
Other companies offer higher yields, and as a top of the foodchain brand in its space, I don't see it reaching huge new heights. So I am wondering what trading strategy makes sense for this particular ticker

>>55797085
Look at the ones that are green

>>55797258
Stock looks like it's going sideways. Either people will go full degenerate and drink more of it because of Wegovy and that stuff, or they'll realize how toxic it is. Anyways, sideways, stable, but dividens are always subject to change and it could go down. So, is it worth the risk, when you could put your money somewhere else with higher yield?
