Coming back from a 2 year options break....Going in next week, how do I turn $5000 in to a $1,000,000?

Shill me this, why did Tupperware peak in 2014, I can't imagine people use it more or less a decade ago so the fundamentals have to be basically irrelevant

>>57275682

I know that old women collect tupperware lmao. No shit there is a whole antiques niche of old tupperware shit. Women are fucking retarded basically but I think this one is pretty much going to zero unless Taylor Swift hits the wall and launches her tupperware line or whatever.

I don't know why but that company is run by either complete morons or criminals pretending to be morons (probably both.)
They had a lot of debt (who fucking knows what's going on in there now) and haven't submitted SEC filings for like a year.
The product is great but the company producing it is a disaster.

Women post breakup without fail always fuck many many dudes in quick succession. Sorry to break this to you man but love isn't real because women aren't capable of it.

>>57275801
move to money market and chill

>>57275795
I think anyone who's capable of it and lacks self control will have a string of hookups after breaking up with someone they legitimately liked.

>>57275792
Chink stocks are going up on Tuesday regardless. It's just a question of how much. If KMT wins they moon. If DPP wins they slowly recover because it's priced in and they're already at bottom.

Who the hell would buy that?

Unlike every other publicly traded space stock, they're not in immediate danger of bankruptcy and setting your money on fire.

Not having sex is a positive thing except you've jacked off 1000s of times which ruins it.

Yes. Casual sex is extremely overrated.

Is CRM really down 30% after hours or is it fuckery? Must be fuckery.

>>57276169
It corrected now. Was down over 30% for several minutes. Scary.

>>57276154
Yes, it's confusing when someone says I haven't got laid in "this much time" when he has been abusing himself 8 times a day.

It might be overrated to you for a myriad of reasons one being that you simply cant get any so you resort to this sort of puritanical dogmatism to cope or that you suck at it or only hook up with uggos and starfishes, but casual sex with someone you vibe with can be pretty fun and de-stressing. Im not saying this is true, but it sure come off this way. Who the fuck hates banging hot chicks? Masturbation is not abusive either, christcuckery is self-abuse glorified.

>>57276301
ill literally wake up covered in jizz if i go a week without touching my dick. like 80% of my dreams are thinking about girls ive fucked or want to fuck. you sound like you are low-t sirs. you also speak about health problems... i havent even been to a doctor in like 15 years and take zero meds but i am active/healthy/fit so i don't need any of that fat people cope.

If you want to go long on a stock, it's more efficient to buy a call option than to buy the stock, as you'll get basically the exact same return from a market movement in your favor as you would from buying a stock, that is significantly more expensive.

>>57277023
No that's completely fucking retarded and you're probably going to lose all your money if you actually think that.
Is this bait?

>>57277023

>>57277023

Line goes up.

A single share of GOOG goes for $145 right now.

GOOG240119C00144000, a call option with a strike of $144 goes for $1.66 right now

With an investment of 145 dollars, I could either buy a single GOOG share or 87 calls.

Imagine GOOG appreciates to 150.

Had I purchased a single GOOG share, I would have a profit of 5 dollars. However, if I purchased 87 calls, I'd have a profit of about 5*87 = 435 dollars.

Calls have a nominal appreciation as large as the original stock as price goes up, right?

What is incorrect about this rationale? Like I said, I'm very new to the markets

Time to make some tendies
It was a profitable week, after all

>>57277107
>delta/gamma hedged against by glowie MMs
Can you tell me more about that? I read something about delta and the greeks, but I don't understand what you mean

>>57277023
Yes, and you can figure out the leverage using the price of your option, its delta (the price of an at-the-money option usually moves about 50 cents for every dollar the stock does), and the price of the underlying.

>>57277117
Notice you are completely fucked if you buy an ultra-short-dated call and it moves against you even a tiny bit.

Personally I buy calls a few months out and mix them with shares when the underlying is too stable (e.g. 3.5% LLY shares, 1.5% 4/19 650c's)

>>57277117
Yeah all correct. Go for it.

>>57276857
just buy UNRJ. smartest way to play, huge beta.

>>57277117
When you buy a stock it's very unlikely that a company like Google goes to zero and you lose all your money. When you buy an option on it, it's very likey, especially in the short term.

>>57277117
Nothing is wrong with your rationale, you are just ignoring the risk of the stock dipping below $144 and having your calls expire worthless or never regain the full premium you paid. And like I said before, buy enough calls and watch your position get hedged against until you close for a loss

How the FUCK do calls and options and shit even work?

>>57277154
>Buy a bunch of puts
>Puts=negative delta=short the market
>Game theory
>MM on the other side of your trade
>MM has equivalent positive delta position
>MM sells (shorts) equivalent delta amount of underlying shares to be market neutral
>Somehow them selling doesn't print your puts because it's done through a dark pool
>Time passes
>Nothing happens
>Your puts losing value (losing deltas)
>MM buys underlying shares back to remain market neutral
>Their buy pushes the market up further
>Your puts losing more value
>They buy underlying shares to remain neutral
>Your puts lose more value
>They buy underlying shares to remain neutral
>Finally you can't take it anymore so you close for a loss
>MM relieves their hedges and market goes back down
>You lose

>>57277246
You can use them to protect against market and sector declines. Or bet on certain time-sensitive events. Or lever up a good bet. Or bet on something's decline while capping your downside (as opposed to shorting)

Or degenerately gamble on a chart second by second.

People around these parts generally use them for that last one but those other uses are much more profitable.

>>57277117
You know what?
You should ask for margin approval while you're at it. It lets you buy 3x the options for the same amount of money.

It's just half a forward so the short end is contingently obligated to deliver/take delivery.

I don't even know what any of that means

>>57277257
People who try to cause squeezes like that usually fuck themselves pretty hard. That's why it's illegal to trade onion (the crunchy root) futures now.

>>57277375

>>57277371
>It's just half a forward
Contract where the short end is obligated to deliver something to the long end who is obligated to accept at the predetermined price.
>so the short end
I/E the contract writer/seller
>is contingently obligated
Short end must execute if the strike price is met and the long end doesn't waive exercising.
>to deliver/take delivery.
Sell/buy the stock at the predetermined strike price depending on if it's a put or call.

>>57277398
Wait so you can make a contract where someone has to buy or sell your stock if it hits a certain price? Couldn't you just make one that said "you will buy my shit when it moons" and sit on it and the other party couldn't get out of it?
What's the downside?

>>57277426
Puts are the buy one and they're only active if the price is *bellow* the strike price.
Calls are the sell one and are the opposite.

Obviously the bids and asks have to come together and will price in any arbitrage.

>>57277426
>downside
it may not be mooning at expiry

Rothschilds bow to Bogdanoffs.

In contact with aliens.

Possess psychic-like abilities.

Control France with an iron but fair fist.

Own castles & banks globally.

Will bankroll the first cities on Mars (Bogdangrad will be be the first city).

Direct descendants of the ancient royal blood lines.

Can save entire continents with a single phone call.

Own 99% of DNA editing research facilities on Earth.

First designer babies will in all likelihood be Bogdanoff babies.

Both brothers said to have 215+ IQ, such intelligence on Earth has only existed deep in Tibetan monasteries & Area 51.

Ancient Indian scriptures tell of two angels who will descend upon Earth and will bring an era of enlightenment and unprecedented technological progress with them.

The Tunguska event in 1908 was actually the Bogdanoff's arriving on planet Earth. How else do you think they got their Slavic last names and how else do you explain the exponential acceleration in technological and scientific development since then?

They own Nanobot R&D labs around the world.

You likely have Bogdabots inside you right now.

The Bogdanoffs are in regular communication with the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, forwarding the word of God to the Orthodox Church. Who do you think set up the meeting between the pope & the Orthodox high command (First meeting between the two organisations in over 1000 years) and arranged the Orthodox leader’s first trip to Antarctica in history literally a few days later to the Bogdanoff bunker in Wilkes land?

They learned fluent French in under a week.

Invented post-anabelian froeboid geometrics, a complex field of mathematics which only they can comprehend fully.

Nation states entrust their gold reserves with the twins. There’s no gold in Ft. Knox, only Ft. Bogdanoff.

All major philosophers and scientists have made reference to them in one way or another.

are you harrassing coomer artists for drawing your wifu without your permission again?

Now that the dust has settled, let's be serious, sincere and honest:

The market doesn't care about data at all.

In November 0,1% less inflation on the CPI caused a gigapump and this whole shitshow, but a higher CPI in december compared to November and even higher CPI in january which ALSO missed by 0,2% didn't do shit.

It actually just shows that the Fed is a bitch. Cause the market knows, the Fed can't do much more than hold or at will not do more than hold IF AT ALL.

>>57278092
Inflation is a demographic problem not a monetary problem.

>>57278109
Inflation is also a problem of scale, since it primarily destroys savers who own the debt.

inflation is intentional and not a problem at all for the people creating it. their whole goal is to destroy savers. you fags are so naive... they literally look you in the fucking face and tell you "you will own nothing" and then you act confused when 90% of the country is going to be renting a government pod to live in.

In all of our countries there are plenty of rules in place for the upper class to maintain their wealth without getting taxed. Income tax is mainly a way of bleeding the middle class.

this is pure gold. Thx fren

I bought IBIT opening day. Already have 5 figure unrealized losses. 2024 is off to a great start.

Found this file called born suckers on my old laptop. The notes I was taking back in 2017. Probably from some book. Wow. Literally me.

Self-attribution Bias: We attribute our successes to ourselves, and we blame our losses on others or bad luck. This hobbles us in two ways. First, we don't learn from our mistakes because we don't see them as mistakes. Second, we assume we are skilled or smart when we're just lucky.

The Gambler's Fallacy: We tend to believe, incorrectly, that if a flipped coin has come up heads three times in a row it is more likely come up tails next time. Similarly, just because a stock or market has gone up or down for a while doesn't mean it is more likely to go the other way soon.

Prospect Theory: We have an irrational tendency to sell our winners to lock in profits and keep our losers to avoid taking losses. This causes us to sell too early when the market is going up and too late when it is going down. We also feel the pain of loss more than the pleasure of gain and, therefore, blow out losing positions in panic when we should just hang on.

Conservatism Bias and Confirmatory Bias: Once we form opinions, we tend to overvalue information that reinforces them and undervalue information that undermines them (conservatism bias). We even tend to seek out supporting information (confirmatory bias). Thus, we irrationally cling to incorrect conclusions, and, to paraphrase Simon and Garfunkel, hear what we want to hear and disregard the rest.

Overoptimism: We tend to be overoptimistic and overconfident. According to James Montier, when students are asked whether they will perform in the top half of their class, an average of 80 percent say yes. This tendency makes it easier for part-time hobbyists to dismiss a century's worth of academic research showing that only a tiny fraction of full-time professionals can beat the market.

Outcome Bias: We tend to evaluate decisions based on outcomes instead of probabilities. Thus, we congratulate ourselves for stupid choices that happen to turn out well and vow to never again make smart choices that happen to turn out badly. Our errors get reinforced, and our wise decisions rejected.

Buffett's "Rearview Mirror": We base our expectations for the future on what has happened in the recent past. Thus, we are most bullish at the end of long bull markets, when we should be most bearish, and most bearish at the end of long bear markets, when we should be most bullish.

Hindsight Bias: When we reflect on the past, we imagine that we knew what was going to happen when we didn't. As James Montier puts it, "You didn't know it all along, you just think you did." This allows us to imagine, for example, that we knew that the tech boom of the late '90s was a bubble and that everyone who suggested otherwise was an idiot or crook. It also makes us overconfident about our ability to predict what will happen next.

HAPPY MLK JR DAY
>FBI ASSASINATED HIM SO WE CREATED A DAY AS A REMINDER EVERYONE THINKING ABOUT BEING REVOLUTIONARIES

I realized something core about the RUT that makes it a bad investment but I'm too tired to write a post about it. Small caps are not bad but the way the RUT does its weighting is.

AAPL selling at 186 within 3 years it will probably be 250. that is a 25% a year increase. pick another stock that will do that i would say for hypothetical AAPL and GOOGL. boom you just averaged 50% a year return by buying and holding two solid companies for 3 years. why do people complicate this shit and why is everyone shilling etfs and over diversifcation. what warren buffet did wasn't rocket science it was literally just picking obvious winners and holding them for a bit.

now etfs aren't necessarily a bad thing but a) they have fees, b) you are extremely diversified. i also believe there is serious overshilling of ETFs by brokerages that manage them. just go on reddit and mention buying stocks and you will get 100s of comments saying you should just buy VTI and "chill".

idk what you guys think about it but to me buy and hold with specific target prices that are reasonably timed away (3 years) seems like an easy way to average 20% annual and make etf shills cry.

>>57279139
So AAPL will do the Micron? Lower revenue but higher price?

I just started feeling very tired
I think this is it
I think this is the big one...
Goodnight /smg/

See you tomorrow

>>57279139
What are you supposed to do when that price target is hit? You don't get an AAPL/GOOG very often so there isn't a guarantee you'll find something else good to put those gains into.

>>57279177
you keep holding if you think they can do it again if not you wait for market corrections and jump back in. or you buy DCA on dips.

Why would an irrelevant domestic dispute between the 2 of some of the most corrupt seedy nations on earth be worth throwing zogbots into a meat grinder. It literally doesn't matter. We're so uninvested in that shit that we blew up the nord stream pipeline just to fuck over Russia and Europe to better our overall position. Invading Taiwan now would be like attacking oil fields in the middle east after we just got done propping up the petrodollar. Taiwan is of immense importance not only to us but to the whole world, everyone needs chips, Europe and US would go in together.

>>57279983
This is from leftover waste during the bomb testing for WW2, the company I worked for is contracted with the cleanup that's still ongoing

>>57280123
Nobody is using nukes, they are just there for preventative posturing. Too many nations are allied together so if you drop a nuke you are getting insta-glassed in return. Not to mention dropping a nuke destroys so many natural resources so it's really not worth it. You're better off freezing a country out economically, it's just as effective.
>>57280157

not sure if this it the right place to ask but I've been looking to be smarter about investing. I've been advised by people I trust to read into dividend stocks and REITs but there is a lot of bullshit out there to sift through. Stocks claiming 10% (or more) dividend yield per quarter are obviously bullshit, but what dividend yield is considered "average"? A lot of the REITs in particular I've been looking at seem to not really go up or down in value much over the past few years, but that just means it's possibly a safe-ish choice right?

is there some more nuanced research I should be doing about these other than:
>pick a few that appear to be staying steady or growing slowly over several years and has an OK yield
>and also specializes in a real estate sub-market that I think will see growth over the next 5-10 years

there are so many videos out there saying which stocks to pick and they all set off so many bullshit alarms in my head, not looking for that. I want to know how to do appropriate research for myself on lower risk long-term investments using income based strategies.

>there is also one tech stock I've been looking at that is at a 9 year low after a poor showing last quarter that have a feeling is undervalued
>I don't really know enough to be able to determine if my reasoning for thinking this is correct or completely stupid
>just that I've been reading through their IR presentations every quarter for several years while not owning any shares because of autism
>I feel like I'm a retard for even entertaining the idea of putting a few hundred down on it because I have no idea what I am doing

>>57280230
and it´s the rule and people from plenty countries come here and speak in english, instead of russian or chinese or any other because it´s the world´s universal language

>>57280241

>>57280183
wow you're so funny, forcing the same 10 year old stale /pol/ joke

>>57280247
i dont do dividends because taxes, it´s not worth it untill you have enough to live off them

but i would say a good yield of 6-10%, in a company known for consistency in their dividends and solid fundamentals would be nice

>>57280247
>I've been advised by people I trust to read into dividend stocks and REITs
You should reevaluate who you choose which people to trust. At least when it comes to finance.

>>57280247
>>there is also one tech stock I've been looking at that is at a 9 year low after a poor showing last quarter that have a feeling is undervalued
Make sure it hasn't done what a lot of tech companies have done recently: get rid of R&D (or in the case of Apple, the minimum line engineers needed to even maintain what they have) and turn themselves into essentially holding companies. Those should not have forward P/Es higher than their current P/E.

>>57280238
yeah I guess so. to me it appears to be the easiest way to boost returns, that's why I'm entertaining the idea. I'm too retarded for anything sophisticated. I won't be able to pick winning stocks, I'm not convinced overweighting NDX is a good idea either. options etc. are way beyond me too

>>57280254
Yes sure. 20 years for nothing.

> it´s the world´s universal language
Yes, and that can change. One of the reasons that supports that is that the english language is particularly easy compared to chinese and other languages that are way older.

How dare you badmouth the Holy Nigger Day like this!? Diversity police, knee on this CRACKER for 8 minutes and 46 seconds!

Is this interpretation correct?

People buy/sell BTC proxies like Microstrategy or miners. No impact on bitcoin price, people just arb the share price using NAV and BTC CEX prices

People used GBTC as a BTC proxy before, no impact on bitcoin price

GBTC is a now an ETF so when people sell, bitcoin is actually redeemed and dumped, impacting bitcoin price? So actual btc sell pressure from $28 billion btc appears out of nowhere (emphasized by the shit 1.5% fee people want to get out of)

I'm on the spectrum

Dividend stocks are great, even better if you hold them in a tax advantaged accounts. The best dividend stocks have a long record of increasing their distributions and they tend to be the more profitable companies in the stock market. I’ll drop a list of dividend stocks that you can buy and never sell

There’s a mix of low yield-high growth, mid yield-high moat-mid growth, and high yield-low growth. If a dividend paying stock cuts or suspends its dividend, sell it immediately

>>57280911
Unironically might be a play. Houthis attack US ship and brings one down killing numerous navy marines, this escalates into full blown out war between US and Yemen

>>57280929
if i was holding NVDA and they were to stop paying dividends i would probably think nothing of it

>>57280943
I'd rather like to have a multi year low temperature conflict to maximise profits.

>>57280951
Their dividend is so miniscule and lacks a history of growth that it wouldn’t be considered a dividend stock like MSFT. I’m talking companies focused on growing their dividends. If they ever cut you should bail immediately. Full disclosure my taxable account is mostly brk.b, speculative pharma stocks that don’t pay a dividend, and VOO and VT that pay a modest dividend.

>>57280911
Wouldn’t RTX be the play? The main thing being used up in these conflicts is missiles. Patriot missiles, tomahawks, JASSM, standard missiles etc. LMT does have the GMLRS and javelin pay piggies tho. I would think the bulk of LMT revenue comes from the f35 and that has to be priced in already

>>57280943

>>57280972

>>57280975
>is meta solid despite everyone seemingly thinking that zuckerberg is a sack of shit?
I couldn’t tell you, it has never interested me so I have never looked into them. I just don’t see how Facebook is a company that can stay relevant forever. I don’t have these fears when I’m investing into Microsoft or visa. I like brk.b because they are very good at choosing where to park their money, even if that means hoarding a pile of it. I also like that they don’t pay a dividend because I prefer my dividend portfolio to be in a tax free account

>>57280999
checked, from what it seems they were shifting their portfolio into cash like they seem to do before every recession

>>57280977
I would be skeptical to take my advice about RTX. Sure they seem like the right play in this environment (everyone using a shitload of missiles) but they have consistently underperformed. They just don’t seem to be a very smartly run company

>>57281005
I’m never against a large cash postion. They have proven to make good use of those cash piles and scoop up undervalued stock by the boatload.

I think I fucked up massively, bros
I know nothing about stocks or investment but was convinced to put all my savings in an index fund and just wait (i don't need the money for at least a decade).
So on the 29th of december I just threw all my shit in an index fund. But after reading more about how this shit works, I should've DCA'd instead to minimize risk, shouldn't I?
Instead of investing, say, $100K all at once, I should've just put, say, $2.5K into it on a monthly basis for the next couple of years, right?
I've made a negligible profit after these first two weeks, but do I just cash it all out and start DCA'ing instead? If there's a crash in March like some people on here say, I would be utterly fucked from having bought near ATH.
So what would you guys do in my situation? Leave it cus it won't matter much over the course of the next 10 years if I just be patient, or sell all and start DCA'ing?
Sorry for being a noob retard

>>57281030
Definitely go with the DCA. Your uninvested money should be making at least 5% for the time being while you DCA.

>>57281030
throw it all in now nigga

Remember to invest in toll-booth-style companies. The business model is fairly simple: Create an infrastructure and take a bit of revenue from everything that passes through it. Perhaps one of the greatest toll-booth model businesses of all time is Visa's payment processing infrastructure.

Every time a Visa-branded card is swiped, the company collects a small fee for using its network -- and it adds up. This has been incredibly profitable, with Visa consistently posting some of the highest profit margins of any company.
