ur weak trader.

When will ACBFF hit $10 again? I was out of the country for that pump and wasn’t paying attention.

Thank you USO/XOP calls.
Thank you Venezuela
Thank you Iran

Well well well
Look who owns Knotts Berry Farm

how much money would you consider safe money where you would index it or not risk it? 50k? would you be happy seeing steady S&P gains but be bored, or would you do something risky even though you might lose it? personally losing that amount would be much worse to me than boomer gains

Does theta always work against you, or only against you when you are OTM?

>>9552016
if have 50k go all in in NBO and put the gains each month into stocks you like

nikkei not 23k anymore

Anons, if you have these you’ll be good tomorrow.

>WTI
>EGY

>>9552058

What is this riddle..

>>9552363
They’re all American oil / natural gas picks.

So, how did you do for the day, anons?

What's going on with Pepsi? I have a few shares from my grandma buying it during some of my birthdays.

Up $300 today. And thanking god I didn't sell my MU shares at the end. MICRON!!!!

>>9552016
i gave 50k away to friends for free so ur fine

>>9552481
Leaf markets closed for holiday

>>9552494
It went to double digits, and will now moon to triple digits
+2% today
+1% tomorow

So I would probably be doing a lot better if I didn't have my $3800 spread between a dozen positions, but it's a ton of fun seeing a buck here, a few bucks there coming in all month. It's comfy like having income generating property in GTA. But, you know, IRL.

Weed gonna moon real good tomorrow.

>>9552751
Face it, nobody wants that weed shit, they will plant their own seeds

Total brainlet here with <1 week trading experience

I see SJM dropped a ton, people say invest, seems like they are entering pet food game?

Despite all this, why is it a good idea?

Also in general, why are food company socks falling? (Kraft as well)

complete investing brainlet, how to get started/learn jargon

>>9552848
junk Bond yield competition (higher yields now)
Higher transportation costs
acquisitions lower the stock price

Dont make me say it a 5th time

Millenials want Pets instead of kids
Gen Z wants Pets

More people more pets

Pet population going to explode

Buy General Mills and Smuckers

>>9552932
>tfw wanted kids but she betrayed me with her ex a month ago
>tfw my German Shepard is the only girl that will never betray me

I still can't eat or sleep. Help me bros.

>>9552932
i want kids but my girlfriend doesn't believe in having kids before marriage, so we've been at a stale mate for a few years.. told her i can probably still have kids for another 30 years and she's only got maybe 5-10 years left... so... we will see who wins this battle

Just get married then and more importantly.... How many Pets do you have?

>>9553092
i-it happens

>>9553100
>How many Pets do you have?
none. wanna travel the world a little more first.. i probably will get married but i really don't like the idea of bringing a contract into a personal relationship and getting the gooberment involved

>>9551970
im eyeing up XLE too
that one has a bunch of oil and gas holdings but also a lot of alternative holdings as well. if oil stays high, and oil memes stop popping off, the alternative energy memes should also stay high. this gives you less exposure to oil suddenly crashing like it always does

>>9553138
>i really don't like the idea of bringing a contract into a personal relationship and getting the gooberment involved
whoever thought of this concept in this first place caused an untold amount of harm to an endless amount of people.

kek theres some couple throwing each others things all over the lawn across the street from me. it always happens, so i assume they must be married

>>9553138
>travel the world
Whats so great about the world?

>>9553190
your monies worth more in other places

>>9552932
For my consumer staples shills in this thread I got a question
https://nrf.com/fastest-50-growing-retailers-2017
If the fastest growing grocery chains are specialty and high end directed where kraft has no presence, with stagnating growth for discount grocers where kraft/General Mills will face aggressive competition, why the fuck should I buy KHC or GIS?

>>9553092
Why smucker try for kill me doggo :( ?

>>9553190
I like to travel around, i feel you learn alot about different ways of life and learning is a huge part of life. I always try to look at the business around certain areas that i travel and get a good feel for it. I also like trying different food and learning different laws of different areas. I just like learning and traveling helps me get a good hands on learning experience imo

>>9553223
Half of those sell big name products
and also: Who the fuck do you think is acquiring those pet food companies? They are about to all get bought up, its the next bitcoin

Stop larping about these scam traders. If you haven't got enough money to afford a real broker then you shouldn't be investing. I use Commonwealth Bank, $10 trades under 5k, $20 over 5k.

Just put 6.5k into AMP and I suggest you aussie faggots do the same.

>>9553248

Literally peak wagie

>>9553389

I'm actually going to buy another rental property first and sign a prenup

>>9551786
which nibbaz here gonna get rich on CRON with me. listing tomorrow/ mj legislation soon

>HMNY

What’s the consensus on this lads? We still holding?

>>9553494
>I'm actually going to buy another rental property first and sign a prenup
you got it
prenup makes some people uncomfortable, but its an absolute must imo

>>9553499
how soon is soon anyhow? is there a specific date thats planned to sign it?

>>9553499
>P/E Ratio 737
Wut

>>9553550
my 12 dollar investment is down 13% so far lmao

>>9553550
i think the consensus is that some big guys will probably see all the retail in the stock, crash it, steal everyones shares, then do the squeeze themselves

>>9553555
Prenup doesn't so shit, literally any family court can overturn a prenup "if it's in the best interest of the """child"""".

They can and will take all your shit and the only defense that I'm aware of is a discretionary trust fund. Even then they'll probably find a way.

>>9553583
this is why you keep all your savings in gold and silver and hide that shit from your spouse.
fuck the system

>>9553550
I sold day 1 for 50 cents profit

are US rates going up because the fed wants them to for QT purposes, or because the deficit went nova and we need to convince more people to buy our bonds?

>>9553583
>Prenup doesn't so shit, literally any family court can overturn a prenup "if it's in the best interest of the """child"""".
youre right when it comes to kids. i thought he was just talking marriage. it can help with that if things go south.

>>9553625
its not about the sex, dummy. you gotta climb the corporate ladder by sleeping with your boss, then sleeping with HER boss, then her bosses boss. then you can have more money to buy memes with

>>9553631
i'm buying more AMD puts if it spikes

>>9553635
hell yeah brother

>>9553655
But her boss weighs 350 pounds, is fat and hair like a fur coat, and his boss is a 90 pound manlet that looks like he molests children.

>>9553687
well find a company where its all female led (check SHEs holdings i guess) and get a job there. i mean the further up you go, the more likely youre gonna have to deal with the more hardcore domme shit, but im sure theres a happy medium somewhere where you can get your free corporate mommy tendies, and not have to get railed in the ass every night by some corporate bitch.

cmon comfy, dont tell me youre trying to WORK for your tendies?

this reminds me of the time i hatched the plan to seduce kurt cobains daughter (as i looked like a really low-rent version of kurt cobain when my hair is long and unwashed). i figured she literally has the biggest daddy issues in the world, so all id have to do is look kinda like him, and play guitar really badly, and im IN. then we get hammered and get married at some vegas drive thru chapels, she doesnt get a prenup, and all i have left between me and the cobain family trust is courtney love. i add a couple extra pills to her regular scheduled dose, kill her, and have unlimited money and all the rights to nirvana merchandising.

but then some fucking bum who looks WAY less like kurt cobain took my spot and got married at some vegas drive thru. fucker. if he kills courtney, imma rat him out. that was MY plan

>>9553830
>id: cuk
let me guess, Teh profit?

>>9553842
kek
i just noticed it

it almost says link luck tho
that wouldve been huge

>>9552932
Own a stake in GIS, and I view BGS as a strong value play. SJM and PEP are looking nice.

>>9553873
all of those look like they're in a heavy as fuck downtrend

I thought we were all getting on this oil market

>>9553873
Good, I hope you enjoy doubling your money within a year

>>9553901
Im the consumer professional in SMG, they will double, the downtrend is over, its time to go All in

>>9553901
My BGS cost basis is 22.2

>>9553921
lol bullshit maybe 20% tops

>>9553830
I'd say larp but people on this general are weird and exciting enough for me to believe it

>>9553944
50% + compounding dividends, highest in the megacap buisness
300% gains by 2020 guaranteed or your money back

Ill be the only left

>>9553901
not all oil memes are created equally. youll notice a lot of them dont have any oil right now. so the increased price doesnt do shit for em, cuz they havent gotten to it. thats why im looking at XOP, as its the oil/gas exploration ETF. its adequately priced, so the options arent too much, but you still get good leverage for dollar moves.

also XLE and energy in general
in fact i think the memes to get in on are solar rn
cali just passed that bill, so a lot of competition means a lot of hype etc
you get it.
theres prolly some shitty oil REITs with high divs to chase too. oils gonna make a lot of related things go up

>>9553921
GIS, seriously undue treatment after the acquisition.

>>9553901
Also, still holding USO calls for sure. Swinging them has been easy gain, and holding father out.

>>9553971
ive been bagholding whzt for 3 years

>>9553976
yeah, its truly ridiculous
and the cambells thing pushed it down again, I bought more

>>9553993
yeah and im gonna make bank when SDRL gets delisted. the oil memes are brutal, but you gotta stop yourself from going big into the really sketchy ones that dont have any fucking oil. cuz any pump from them you know is just speculation.

though youd probably be better on that stuff anyways. im staying away from it because i cant identify fuckery like that as well as you.

either way, im gonna have to do a lot of research over the next couple weeks, or until whenever oil pulls back again, to learn about specific companies with potential. for now im playing the broad stuff till i find anything in particular.

>>9554019
I’ll check out Campbell’s.
T VZ and VFC were adds for me today too.

Wew lads doing my part, at my second job and some autismo extraodinaire hit my gas pump, surely this is the sign of the fabled Golden Bull RunTM

>>9554077
>my pump
>uso

Insider? Reported

>>9554075
VZ is good, but T doesnt increase dividends to match inflation, so they arent part of the Golden Income fund

>>9554019
>>9554075
Why not just buy a consumer staples ETF? You're pretty much doing that anyway

>>9554130
nah you can definitely outperform by zoning in. not to mention higher divs, which i believe, is the point

>>9554130
A very good question, Let me answer that

ETFS provide lower yields, and grow slowly. You have 0 control over what to drop and what to keep. Right now I know what the best deals are and can get a higher yield on cost buying select stocks

Im simply too tremendous for Indexes. TThey can not beat me

>>9554130
I would only buy XLP, and I’m not interested in over half of the holdings and can pick stocks for a better return.

>>9554111
Couldn’t pass on the valuation. Gambling on next months result I guess.

Im reading through each of /smg/'s threads for the last 2 days, taking notes and doing surface level TA

do you guys want a text dump after I'm done or for me to post each note as I decide to?

this is a rough sketch of the golden income that WILL yield 1 million per month in 50 years

you no longer have to work, a simple 5k in this now is suffice

>>9554050
i'm holding GBR i've been trading it for about 4 years.. recently been doing some more looking into it.. i think it's a solid nano cap for this bullish oil market, when nat gas takes off it's going to be even better imo

>>9554171
plus the expense ratio would eat at your yields even further. you got the right idea

this is what id like to do with energy right now, but i dont know the best deals, yields etc. so for now the indexes will definitely outperform me

>>9554187
its not bad,
VZ is safer though because its on the DOW

>>9554192
Bonds? I’d rather hold XLU or high yield REITS: NRZ UNIT WPC STAG

>>9554214
I keep some reits too but itsd a small portion, I have stag too

>>9554192
what is 'index conglomerates secret'

>>9554146
>>9554171
>>9554172
I'll have to look into staples for lolz. Generally do you look for healthy, large cap high div companies that fit the bill?

>>9554195
nat gas companies, i would think, would grow as nat gas becomes a more valuable, widely used commodity as a heating/oil alternative. thats the kind of stuff, if you can find it, that will be REALLY tremendously rewarding. thats where you get the OTC stocks where youll get like 8000% in a day or something fucking retarded.

i dunno, im kind of excited that oil is offering up new opportunities desu. if oil doesnt get WAY too fucking high, and stays at an elevated price, this could be a good game for a while. since OPEC wants it to stay up so that their countries can turn a profit, i believe this is the plan for now (with a few manufactured bumps along the way)

>>9554280
I hear STD is a hot catch

>>9554280
For this shit, dividend health; brand portfolio and penetration; and deviations from the price mean.

Just realized BCH the Pepsi to BTC's Coke

>>9554260
indices like dow mini or right now bank stocks
conglomerates like brkb
secrets are a secret

>>9554280
Literally just look in your fridge and cuppord and read the brands and buy based on that

>>9554280
im the wrong guy, but your looking for consistency in price, div, and with solid management thats actually gonna give a fuck about all you shareholders that are lending them money in exchange for a supercharged savings account.

>>9554099
Shhh.... lest (((they))) find out...
Btw gas is 3 dollars a gallon here (outer boston area.)

i was in SSOF and sold it right before the run

What is this Golden Bull Run y'all nigga-dashi are talking about?

>>9554366
an infinite feedback loop of positivity that allows the bull market to literally power itself, sustaining constant growth for all of eternity.

>>9554366
The Golden Bull stands for the infinite growth in the SP500, NASDAQ, and DOW

They will go up forever, until you die. This how they are designed. It is called the Golden Bull

>>9554190
Puts on BBY, maybe OTM calls at 78.00 if ur stupid.
SJM has more room to fall on the weekly. Earnings play? Buy calls on 2hr., high price puts will be closing
Walmart (WMT) is a strong buy on the weekly. Tightening range on the daily, may break bull/bear TBD
HMNY will open Red. Buy in immediately, whatever you can spare. RSI and MACD are primed to pump.

>A lie created to make many bag holders.
this sounds much more realistic.

>>9554535
you will get left behind, with Kneepadgirl, lucky you

Honestly if you doubt the golden bullrun, you are worthless

>>9554535
>A lie created to make many bag holders.
this is downright quotable

it depends on how you analyze cycles and sub-cycles though. like, if you simply zoom out you will notice that it only goes up with some bumps along the way. it stands that if you bought at anytime in the past, you only had to have waited for an indeterminate amount of time, and you wouldve gotten positive RoI. so technically the golden bull DOES exist, and were in it, but many people are trying to capitalize on shorter term trends, as such, we are losing out on the secured gains that come from the buy and hold method that has been the only consistent way to be profitable on wall street

CIF easy buy immediately
BGH possible bear reversal. Bearish MACD. Watch daily, buy Friday?
KKR similar to BGH, wait to buy. Maybe buy puts at or above 22.50

Each Junk Bond financed ETF was taken from Fortune's 2017 article 3 Junk Bond Funds Yielding Up to 10.2%. If you have any ticker suggestions or ways to play the demand of junk bonds please tell me :)))

Half your money into Pepsi/KO
Half your money into high yield bonds

How is NBO related to Junk Bonds? I don't see any in their Top Holdings. Regardless if the stock doesn't hold 11.50 tomorrow it will continue falling. Buy puts above 11.50 to play price action.
>>9555174
JNK puts may be a smart play on Wednesday. This stock has been trying to break bullish since July 2017. And top google results make it look like ppl have been shorting it since then too. Volume is weak relatively so puts may still be a smart move.
>>9555143
Never heard of CEFL. It's a 2x leverage of the high Income Index or YYY? Weekly MACD says it's ready to pop and RSI on every time scale is in the middle. Why are you interested?

>>9555583
it would've been nice

I was a bit tepid about the announcement of Netflix partnering with Obama and didn't put as much as I wish I did. Do you think they're going to continue rallying closer to the 52 week high?

>Smirnoff
it's DEO m8

I didn't dig too deep into Molson Coors but I find they have a poor international presence and very weak brand narratives for their products

BUD is better in that area. I liked what they did with their Cubanisto brand.
Cuba is enjoying a strong and positive image thanks to its history and the Che meme. So it is a region that don't have do much marketing to sell itself. And it is glamorous and products associated with Cuba can easily be sold at a higher price.
The same narrative with nip shit. You will rately see cheap nip shit.

Since this is a serious trading thread.

I've been wondering how do you decide the time lapse you watch on a trading chart?

I've been looking over the laps of a week, but some even watch at a 1 minute interval.

I have MACD and 3 EMA lines set, with default values except for the 3rd EMA which is set to a 7 units interval.

So how exactly do I decide if I watch over days, weeks, months or hours?

>>9555871
look at monthly charts, no candlesticks

>>9555871
That depends entirely on how long you intend to hold the stock.

Oil and Gas
USO continues its year long bull run. MACD and RSI say to sell or buy puts above 14.50. Smart money buys low price calls. Watch Trump twitter.
GBR looks fun. Buy on local 4hr dip or at your leisure.
CEI is operating in a tight range. Recent split may have stopped volatility, volume is healthy. Look into business practices and competitive advantage, price is not moving this week.
XOP honestly has more room to run. Can't tell when the consolidation will occur but buy in when it does. Buy calls 38.50 and below.
XLE weekly chart looks crazy. Lots of volatility so take your pick in action. You could sell puts at 77.50 and above, but I would buy calls at 68.50 and below.

I don't know enough about the sector or geopolitics to make any long term calls. I'm only 22.

I posted my placements, I did 19 or 20 trades yesterday. Shorting equities long term (Like 2 more years) is probably a good bet, but this is a day trader thread.

Short 20+ treasuries, and expect more volatility long term. Get away from FANG and the QQQ. Techis going to take hits first.

Tech totally does always get hit first, and fucking nosedives the hardest during corrections -- I can agree with that.

Buy HMNY Thursday afternoon or Friday morning. Thursday will guarantee you get in before the short squeeze. Friday will give you a chance to get in during the final dip down to $0.23, but it's going to climb back up fast as fuck, so if you fuck up, you're probably going to end up having to buy higher than you would have if you bought Thursday just before closing.

>>9557005

actually, i'll sell a bear call spread on qqq.

I honestly think while selling drugs and shit is easy, I've had an 14 month pick it's stiill trading around a dollar Who care's what it's called some one else saw my 30% buy and sells on this one, but tech will be all we have.... Equities are over rated invest less in drugs and more in stuff like the american bonds. Watch this yield curve, go short for 10 years on t he 20+ year curve. You can look at shorter spreads, fidget spinner made a call a year ago on a shit post minutes day, that was legendary... Dude couldn't figure the way to invest in it... I know he's still lurkiing.

>>9557110
QCOM actually loses long term since they can't grow further than they have with out integrating more things out of their comfort zone and busiiness model.

Covered calls? That sounds somewhat good.

I roughly remember the fidget spinner namefag. It was legendary, but I don't recall what he said. Wish I screencapped.

>>9557196
I'd be bearish on existing technology, and looking for small - micro cap aquisitions since all these companies got a big break and are looking for aquisitions, but i play the larger funds and don't focus too much on individual stocks. The gems are the microcaps with potential buy outs, and you only see those in the R&D pipeline companies like that one i've been shilling as a 2 year play

>>9557196
no i'd sell a bear call spread, I'd sell an out of the money option on qqq, and hedge it with a further out of the money option. Expectiing QQQ to go down.

>>9557196
Yeah I guess so. Here rates have been low since 2008.

>>9557196
I have no qqq position at the moment, but i'd be short from now, and then close it before september.

>>9557245
Euro will feel a squeeze. The dollar has had the highest trade vs the euro in history man.

>I doubt the time span will be that short.
Do not doubt me, ye mortal. A very red day is going to become a very green day very fast.

>>9557245
Personally I don't see that letting up at all.. AND it's actually quite frightening for equities, because to be honest... Them bond yields while we're long now, we do get shit post minutes.

It's basically AVGO's business model.

>>9557235
>I'd sell an out of the money option on qqq, and hedge it with a further out of the money option.
Ok. I'm liking that idea.
My concern is that tech hype is hard to play because it moons the hardest when it's the most clearly a bubble. It has a lot of runway in my opinion for hype to go right now.

nvrm like 20 years ago the euro was like 75 cents to a dollar, that's like a loong time ago... the euro was just starting to be adopted, but they're losing.

>>9557253
>>9557264
Honestly I don't see the euro doing anything but dropping against the dollar in the next few months. Which is very welcome for the industry, my stocks and marginally my loan. It has been overvaled for so long.

>>9557278
Yeah by selling the option and hedging it with an option you're actually both long and short. So you can make a decision and close the short to go long or just stay short the whole fucking thing.

>>9557308
i might be biased because of my USA nature, but i think euroland is fucked in the financial sector for at least the next 2-4 years because they don't know how to predict american markets, even though it's written on the wall.

>>9557248
>then close it before september.
I feel like after September is the most ripe time for tech to take a slap.
A midterm that favors the Democrats in addition to 2 rate hikes will slap the shit out of the stock market.
A democratic congress could be favorable for tech, but it won't do much if the entire economy is in a recession.

>>9557253
>The dollar has had the highest trade vs the euro in history man.
Which is odd because the US is playing with the idea of a weak dollar for the first time in decades
>>9557308
>Honestly I don't see the euro doing anything but dropping against the dollar in the next few months
If the other anon is correct that the euro is at historic highs against the dollar, the euro is definitely getting set for a major squeeze.

>>9557260
Have you been watching HMNY? Has hardly done shit in 10 days.

The worst thing for a newfag too do is come in here and hear rates are going up and invest in bonds.. It's like an inverse relationship, and well JUST the average trader....

we had 0% interest rates and inflated the equities because of it through the damn bail out era of the past president.

the pattern day trade rule, was more for them to protect their own ass now the individual who could actually make a buck trading.

>>9557326
I guess the ECB finally decided to just boost competitivity of EU business by keeping the printing press running.

>>9557347
Eur has been dropping linearly vs USD since the FED raised their rates. Of course it's going down, and that's pretty good.

>>9557311
>So you can make a decision and close the short to go long or just stay short the whole fucking thing
OR
You could be going short, get JUSTd, decide to go long, and THEN the bubble bursts, and get even more JUSTd,
which sounds just too easy to have happen.

>>9557326
>i might be biased because of my USA nature, but i think euroland is fucked in the financial sector for at least the next 2-4 years
Same. This.
We're getting some runway for the next recession. Euroland is slacking.
I'm really feeling that a blue midterm here in the US will be a total JUST of the economy.

>>9557375
>>9557382
Mario Draghi doesn't have much choice about EUR strength.
A weaker EUR and complacent Germans are what is keeping the EU monetary union.
A strong EUR would rekt shithole EU countries with no competitiveness like Italy, Greece, Spain and Portugal (and France).

Currently, there is the Italian tantrum. Since they are a people with no honor, nothing serious will happen. The guidos will fold and stay within the union.

After this event, I would watch out for Emperor Trump's tweets about EUR being too damn low.

>>9557425
>>So you can make a decision and close the short to go long or just stay short the whole fucking thing
>OR
>You could be going short, get JUSTd, decide to go long, and THEN the bubble bursts, and get even more JUSTd,
>which sounds just too easy to have happen.
Well yeah you're long and short an option and then you break the pair to go one or the oother, and can get justed. It's umm you know up to your own decision making to decide what you're doing, but if there is volatiliity you can be short and ended up making money from being long on the further short.

>>9557347
>Have you been watching HMNY? Has hardly done shit in 10 days.
It's building up pressure like a volcano. It's going to fall into the $0.30s in the next couple days before the main event on Friday.

>>9557443
Trump pussied out on tariffs, he will pussy out on weak EUR.

>>9557348
>The worst thing for a newfag too do is come in here and hear rates are going up and invest in bonds
Kek. This is why every news article mentioning "historic" highs in the yields makes damn sure to mention that yields are inversely related to bond prices.

>>9557358
>we had 0% interest rates
>had
>HAD
This is an important point to emphasize to our friend here from euroland

>>9557375
>guess the ECB finally decided to just boost competitivity of EU business
I was thinking about that.
Trump keeps flirting with the idea of an EU trade war too.
I don't think short term competitive boosts will help out with long term competitiveness if the EU gets JUSTd with its pants down and 0% interest rates.

>>9557470
actually that's not in trumps hand's, and we're raising interest rates. But giving the American people what is required for Americans to build businesses. Personally I'm making more money than anytime in my life.

>>9557504
The thing is, after 2008 both EU and the US had low rates.

Anyway, ECB will raise interests as well once inflation hits 2%, energy excluded.

>>9557382
>dropping linearly vs USD since the FED raised their rates
Ok. I see what's going on here.

>>9557443
>After this event, I would watch out for Emperor Trump's tweets about EUR being too damn low.
Kek. That's basically what I'm saying.
>>9557470
>Trump pussied out on tariffs
He'll probably threaten them again sometime

>>9557470
It may seem that way, but I believe he doesn't care that much about appearances or what pleb (you, me, the media) think of him as long as things are getting done.

You see in business, the hardest thing to do is getting the disagreeing party at the table. Trump got the chinks at the negotiating table and they have been doing that since then.

And Trump is far from being crazy or a warmonger guy. He is surely the most sensible and peace-loving leader in the West right now.

If Trump wins the midterms, I will be fanatically bullish on the US.

>>9557526
I hope we can knock a few seats out. Personally I heard a woman in my office say that they should charge the parents of the kid that shoots up the school. I usually don't get political, but I don't think she even understands that kid commited that crime in Texas, and he's going to be publicly executed.

I doubt any plea bargan like the kid in flordia will be offered.

FUCK. I really, really need to read up on my Vega shit.

>>9557517

Correct. Because our economies get JUSTd together.
That's why I'm pointing out that an upcoming blue midterm could be a cause for concern, and you guys are the only ones still left with your pants down at 0% interest rates.

>>9557517
>will raise interests as well once inflation hits 2%
>once inflation hits 2%
>2%
>skeleton.jpg

>>9557526
The major problem here is that the EU has a trade surplus in goods with the US, and even with tariffs you can't always switch to local goods. However, the US has a service trade surplus with the EU, and that can be very easily switched to local sources since it needs way less investments.

>>9557595
>and you guys are the only ones still left with your pants down at 0% interest rates.
We actually have a pretty good cushion since 30% of all member states' and big corps' debt are in the hands of the ECB.

>>9557595
>>once inflation hits 2%
>>2%
yeah.... ummm yeah, I want to like wow. Can we ever look back at a period of delfation? Delfation isn't even a fucking word I get underlined, it doesn't exist. Well just I'd refer you back to learning everything you can about american bonds and interest rates. At that point, you'll probably never need this thread again.

>>9557526
>If Trump wins the midterms, I will be fanatically bullish on the US.
Same.

>>9557598
>the US has a service trade surplus with the EU, and that can be very easily switched to local sources since it needs way less investments
That's interesting information.
I'm somewhat skeptical that you guys have the audacity to go all-out chink niggers and switch to Alibaba and Baidu-esque knock-offs from Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc.

The ECB is already talking about letting the interest rate increase by the end of the year and if that doesn't happen the next year Draghi is out and they'll probably will put a German in his place who will be more willing to raise them.
I believe the euro is naturally a strong currency because it's the natural successor to the Deutsche Mark.

>>9557666
They won't put a german, Germany has 0 support within the eurozone now. Even Finland turned their backs on them.

>>9557653
>>If Trump wins the midterms, I will be fanatically bullish on the US.

What you have to understand.... He's still going to be president after mid terms... Unless them Norks try to kill him, and in that case we're going to fucking war!

I can't imagine the negative interest rate experiments will go that well as something that EU is RELYING upon.

>>9557651
Not my point.
My point was that the central banks have lost control and that 2% inflation is unlikely to ever come.

I love History
I like to think what people of ancient times did was done for very good and sensible reasons
Death penalty. It was simple and it worked.
I also think people NEED collective memes (belief, religion, superstition) so as to be kept in check and be productive. Without that, they will invent stupid and neferious memes (belief, religion, superstition) to believe in.

Taken as a whole, people tend to believe since it requires no reflexion. You cannot expect people to think. The greatest woe of our time is mass education, which is not fundamentally different from commie and socialist reeducation camps in my opinion (notice the vocabulary used ? EDUCATION). People with diplomas who are persuaded to be allowed to think and that they are somehow right.

I am a retard but at least I keep it to myself and only care about my meme stock market.

>>9557598
>even with tariffs you can't always switch to local goods
Oh yes you can
It is way more simple than you think when you have no choice

I think the other poster meant "win" as in remain in control of congress... Although now that I've typed that out, I've realized he's never really had control of congress so a blue midterm isn't really going to stop him.
Hmmmmm... This changes things a bit.

>>9557699
I understand that Trump is president for 2 more years. But I think his TRUE presidency will begin once he has his own guys in place.
Currently, democrats and many republicans (RINO) are against him.
Drain the swamp is not a meme

>>9557752
Right now germany barely has a functional government, while France, Spain and Finland explicitely want a low EUR. That's also why brexit dealings took a fucking hard tirn towards hardline on the EU side : basically NL+FR are out for the UK's industry and services.

>>9557730
>Actual helicopter money (striking out debt then direct investment)
Oh wow.
Has that been done much before?
I remember the bail outs, but that was in addition to cutting rates and it was just specific sectors.
If companies become dependent on that EU could look like chinkland's fucked up mash of government and "corporations"

>>9557734
>I'm literally lmao, you didn't read 3 weeks ago
Nah, the US is right around 2%. I'm still not totally buying it though.
EU is still struggling to get there though.

>>9557733
You're not retarded, capital punishment and abortion are two issues, along with immigration that I'm personally on the fence about. What I love the most about my president is the deregulation and willingness to change the world. Not only to change the world to benefit the citizens of other nations, but how he benefits the lives of those at home. This is why the media hates him, and has to press every angle they can against him. They know he's actually a man with his own people's interests at heart yet most media is globally controlled and he's made their narratives irrelevant. It's not even shit post hours, but I've been up all night and need to check futures and see how I should hedge.

>>9557792
It costs me $11 every day for a pack of cigarettes. Some days I smoke 2 or 3 of those. Inflation is rising, but most of that will be soaked in the oil, and people paying for gas. Even the cheap ass food at the market is going up. Used to be able to get produce for less in the winter than what the prices are now...

>But I think his TRUE presidency will begin once he has his own guys in place
I think he's already got some backers in place.
The churn in his staff may give some impression otherwise.
More backers in congress would be absolutely nice though.

>germany barely has a functional government
Kek. Can you please elaborate on this.
I don't get very much insight into EU aside from /pol/, but /pol/ is nothing but tinfoil hat shit that can't even entertain the thought of the central banks without screaming about Jews.

I am from yurop. Trump is really the only leader in the West worth a damn. The USA actually elected a man like him tells a lot about this country.
The EU member countries will throw tantrums from time to time against the bureaucracy, but nothing serious will come out of it. (I might keep an eye in the historical Austria-Hungarian empire block countries though since they used to be the counter power to the German Holy Empire hegemony)

Also, I am here almost everyday but I don't do many operations on the stock market. As I am "investing" a la Buffett-sama. I somehow admire you, teh profit, Eternal Bear for making calls all the time.

>Has that been done much before?
Nope but in 2009 it was on the table. Not happened because the eurozone stood off of deflation.

Germany rn is led by a weak coalition of 3 parties including greens, no clear majority in parliament and no consensus on what to be done. Mutti clings to power but her everyone holds her accountable for the rise of the far right. I guess for a burger it's like a government shutdown when your parliament fails to pass a budget.

I wish these threads were not dead at night.

Well, He's been making bad decisions and taking shots at his own people. As much as I hate it, yeah he is dividing country. He pulled Jeff Sessions out of the senate, then lost the damn senate race because of the me too movement. He has another 6 years at the helm in my honest opinion, but after him some one needs to take his pen, and run this fucking country. I wish we could do entitlement reform, but the damn filibuster rule of the senate isn't having any help. When some one like Chuck the Smuck Schumer or Elizabeth Warren can just block the entire process of change, how progressive are these people? I hate it, just long gold and bonds.

Any ideas on where GE is headed? I got 200 shares currently and I’m debating if I should up that.

>>9557826
>The churn in his staff may give some impression otherwise.
Yeah, another of retards' meme
I see him as someone open-minded and pragmatic who hires people who he views as:
- competent
- compatible with his current objectives
- useful to a deal or compromise he made
- in the same state of mind as him

And he fires them once they are no longer needed.

It actually takes a lot to fire someone and to play the "bad guy". When you fire no one you end up with a bloated, lazy and inefficient administration.

I feel gross adding this on, but for these threads it seems actually useful.

I wish it was easier for me to paint a clearer picture and strategey, but thanks EU bro. Have the best image i have saved on this PC... I don't have many.

Don't think about the long term. Because:
1- we will be all dead
2- I don't even know what I am going to eat for dinner how can I predict what happens in the future ?

More and more, I think the most sensible way of viewing things is in terms on years.

So Trump has at most 6 more years of presidency. That makes 6 more years of goodness you can profit from. You reconsider the situation after those 6 years.
Other example, HK is toast in the long term because of China. But for at least 10 more years, HK should be ok.

15 was probably the bottom, you did good kiddo. Watch it though, i'm eternal bearish on equities and playing calculated risk via just moving money into stuff like oil and gold, even long/short volatility.

Yup.

It's so unfortunate that it's so hard to get a populist shitstorm going.
Trump is the only one that has been successfully elected with conviction to fuck over the immigrants and refugees, and he's still having a hard time thanks to congress.
Macron has said some pretty woke stuff, but Merkel is a straight up Hillary-tier turd sandwich.
And then, we got this fucking soi boy in UK that married a black. The UK hardly even has ooga boogas, and the fucking dumbass went for it.
How does this shit happen? How the fuck is humanity perpetuating these failed losers that are stuck in idealism?
I haven't watched I'd, but it seems like basically the problem that I have with humanity. It's so fucking absurd.

You should learn how to cook. Personally planning and practice helps. I've made food for chicks that just seals the deal. Women love my cooking, and it's fucking easier when you understand markets, since you can haggle and get the best possible prices. Inflation is real though, damn prices are going up.

Always remember the ancient Greeks
They were the ones at the origin of the Western civilization before being the niggers of Europe
Just look for individual solutions for you.

We are getting at least one more hike.

I see him as open-minded too. The progressives will never be able to see this. That's because the progressives are not open-minded.

That's what she said.

So in response to an anon lamenting his student debt loan woes 13 hours ago.You can go to numerous banks and lending organizations that will purchase the right to your loan contract outright and then charge you a rate, which can be as low as 3% for the duration of payment. They can afford to do this because they have millions to billions of dollars and they charge you the minimum amount they need to make money more or less. The rates available change over time depending on market conditions, so in cases where the rates are close to what you are normally charged, chances are they will go down significantly at some point. This is why its in your best interest to pay back debt as slowly as possible over the longest period of time. You can eventually negotiate a lower rate for a larger amount of your principle if you slow burn it. This same logic applies to most things in fact, imagine
Anon A pays an additional 10,000 dollars per year towards student loans, or save that money towards safe investments
Anon B decides to save 10,000 per year but he has to pay student loans for an additional 10 years.

In ten years, would you rather, have 100,000 dollars and 100,000 dollars of debt
OR
Have 0 dollars and 0 debt.

This is assuming a rate of return of 0.00%. Having money is having security. Paying loans over time helps build credit, and it saves your own capital for investment, and more importantly, to keep you safe in the case of unforeseen life events. If you have 0 dollars and 0 debt, you can't handle ANYTHING happening. Car breaks down? Fucked. Lose your job for 2 months? Fucked.

So many people fail to save because they feel compelled to pay everything off as soon as physically possible. You fuck yourself by limiting your cash flow, and open yourself up for destruction by random life events you are not prepared for. Even if after ten years you don't want to debt, you have the money to pay it off, and all the while you didn't leave yourself vulnerable.

oh yeah we're selling our long positions this week, and continue with bear bonds. fuck dude, some one said this earlier how this thread is full of great advice but time frames and trading skills hurt people.

YUP.
I've typically viewed us all as degenerate day traders, but then I paid more attention to Nico / Nikkei poster and the couple others doing consumer discretionaries.
