I sold KHC for a slight gain. Trying to into value investing waiting for the crash but Kraft is such a terrible company lol

The next crash will probably kill Warren Buffet.
The combination of Buffet death and crash will probably drive BRK to a .75 PB ratio and sub 1 PEG
Buy as soon as that happens

If SPOT actually comes up with a positive EPS I'll buy it. I mean the entire world will and it will pump into the stratosphere.
Should I buy it before earnings then? Idk
A company that's been around for around 15 years and still isn't profitable is special needs

I just finished deleting my Facebook and Instagram account. Short Facebook and CIA niggers
Imagine buying a company that relies on boomers clicking ads
I can see the value of Instagram but Facebook is the new Myspace
Google is another company that most of it's revenue comes from ads, but they are also working on building Skynet so they get a pass

Should I but MCD puts at open

>>13386550
Why would you buy puts on such a great dividend payer?
I hate the actual company. It's a symbol of post industrial capitalism and it's inherent greed, exploitative nature, and inherent synthetic sexuality

>>13390430
You missed out on massive gains but i think it can still go to 6-7 in the next two months. The stock is overall bullish but we might we some pull back this week, which is your entry in.

>>13390430
Also the fact that it stayed and closed above 5 is bullish.

>>13390445
>>13390482
thanks, is it worth holding long term? even if it doesn't pull back and I hop in around 5

>>13390494
They have enough with the vitamin deal to pay off next months debt which would put the stock up to 6 at least. I've already made about 400% profit off my calls but i really do think it can go to 6-7. Anything after that is really risky imo. Some people are holding for 10 in the next two months but i think that's a pretty far cry from what we'll see within that time.

>>13390514
bless, thanks anon. you've spoon fed me enough and now I will have to decide for myself

>>13390494
Also long terms a relative thing. How long is long term to you? The best long term stock to buy right now is SQQQ. Like the anon said above. Its going to lead to huge gains in the next 2 years and is a great stock to long. However, i would buy TQQQ calls in the short term (next few months) as TQQQ will probably reach 70-71 before it finally stops its gains.

SPY in Roth IRA, or SPY and IWM for small caps?

What's best for a 30 year DCA plan?

>>13390530
for me I guess 1 or 2 years at least.
I am pretty new to /biz/ and have been hearing lots about SQQQ, I will have to do more research. I'm fairly deep in Vanguard ETFs so I gotta learn what the difference is. also I have the cash to take some risks now but am too much of a rookie at this point to minimize my losses

>>13390530
>the best long term stock to buy right now is a 3x leveraged inverse ETF

>>13390635
>"I know everything even though i've never left my literal meme stock that hasn't had a deal i've been saying is on the way for almost a year"
I longed TQQQ since maybe early-mid january and made twice your fucking portfolio. TQQQ can/will reach 70 and you have no fucking idea about what you're talking about. Yeah, TQQQ can be 56 on monday and then on thursday be 61. But that only matters if you're a day trader. If you long the thing it doesn't make a difference as long as the fundamentals for your goal are still the same. And this is signed by the guy who says people who care about short term price action are bitches like him who get fucked in their ass

Its actually probably like 3 times since galt took a shit

>>13390663
This anon gets it i longed it for 9 years and never sold. Couldnt be happier

Congrats on your wealth. The sad part about pendulum is hes being serious when he puts these kinds of posts out.

>>13389875
>when you equip the explosion resistance gear instead of poison resistance

How does he do it?

Value investing. He didn’t ruthlessly follow the market or develop complex trading strategies. He made one bet and stuck with it over long periods of time.

Also he had the balls and social skills to start his own holdings company, as well as the discipline to do his due diligence before investments. Traits that fags like you will never even dream of possessing.

>>13390913
He is basically the master of bagholding

I would like to get into investing some of my money, and started reading up on some of the links here. I'm quite overwhelmed. While i read up, what would be a good start, some kind of index fund?

Seems like this board is completely overrun by cryptonerds, I must admit i have absolutely no understanding of that....

>>13391637
begin with ETFs following legit indices (SPY and BND)
Once you have money in the game, you will learn moar.

>>13391343
I just buy ETFs like NGE and PAK for my 3rd world exposure
less risk, less reward compared to buying

a 10x in 10 years would imply a 25-30B market cap. doable. I'd still rather put money in something like NGE

Me on the right

>>13390537

If you want SPY and small caps in market weighted measures, then just get VTI and be done with it. Personally I prefer Total Market over S&P for greater diversification, but both are good choices for stock indexing.

DCA - Throw it all in when you can unless you have some aversion to this. In that case, figure out a weekly or monthly amount throughout each year you would feel comfortable with.

>>13390854

You could also argue that at this point, he is so big that he can create a self-fulfilling prophecy of success. Warren says he likes Coca Cola, then Berkie buys more, then everyone else buys Coke because Warren buys Coke ---> Success.

Ooh guess I should load the boat with NBRV

Also can you all stop posting about this thread on the rest of the board? I don't want to invite more crypto shit posters into the thread, especially when their crown jewel argument is "but the board was made for crypto" as they try to imply im a new fag so the topic isn't related.

Anyone here before 2016 knows this isn't true. Pure revisionism.

>>13390663
I'm not talking about TQQQ, I'm talking about SQQQ

>>13390663
>>13392574
All SQQQ has done since its inception is decay, speaking in the long term
Your entire reason for holding SQQQ is betting on a dramatic 2008-esque crash that may not come for a very long time
SQQQ will continue to decay into nothing until that crash finally comes, and if it's long enough before it does, whatever gains you'll get out of it may not even make up for all the losses you incurred bagholding a 3x leveraged inverse ETF for years

>>13390635

>>13393177
It's the Jews fault. Back in the old days before trading algos became so complex they didn't want to be caught sleeping while someone else was getting an advantage at making money. So they limited trading during regular business hours.

Now honestly in the days of trading algos and ETFs there is no reason for the market to operate on such limited hours. I guess it's most likely just because nobody cares enough to change it.

What's stopping me from making 100 accounts on robinhood, inviting them all through a main account for the (((free stocks)))?

>>13393327
You have to give your brokerage your SSN when you make an account
They'd know it was you making multiple accounts

>>13393327
It's a broker
I think to sign up for the account you have to link a bank account and give them your social. one of the two, I don't remember offhand

Basically whatever idea you come up with that you think is insane and amazing free money probably isn't, that's just my life lesson to you right now. there are exceptions to this rule, but if you make a post on /biz/ asking: 'is this a good idea to make free money', the answer is no

>>13393327
I'd imagine they need a valid social before they will issue the free stocks. Also you'd have to link each account up to your bank account to get the funds which would probably be another red flag.

yo I promise you though, if you make my order well I will appreciate it. If you listen closely in the drive-through, speak clearly, and get my order right I will appreciate it.

Time to talk LCI folks.

Percent of the float being shorted is around 70%.

Currently, LCI is in deep water for price collusion https://seekingalpha.com/news/3451180-lannett-4-percent-cautious-sa-article-alleged-price-collusion

Lawyers and Courts getting involved.

Currently forming a head-and-shoulders pattern.

Healthcare sector due for a bounce.

There would have to be a huge influx of buying for there to be a short squeeze.

My question is, what would the catalyst be for an increase of buying volume?

I would assume that with the current article about price collusion that one would expect more bad press to come out which would hurt the stock by scaring investors away.

They got fucked in all cancer trials so far and were sentenced to hundreds of millions in damages.

The stock is risky but the company doing well. Ex-dividend next week.

>>13394394
I read about that as well as the float I’m not sure if that one big name guy is still pumping the stock or not but I bought 10 shares at 6.90 last dip so if it goes lower I’ll just get out I haven’t seen LCI dip below 6.50 in about 4 months so if it does then it means it’s time to move on
GALT is also a stock that I’m beginning to hate. If they have a product than an acquisition should be around the corner but since it’s not it’s looking like something is very wrong with the pricing or the product itself.

>>13394725
>If they have a product than an acquisition should be around the corner but since it’s not it’s looking like something is very wrong with the pricing or the product itself

they're a biotech company, the quality of their product is determined by its safety and performance in clinical trials
belapectin is very safe and has shown promising results in clinical trials
there's a lot more to negotiations for an acquisition than just the quality of their product

>>13392649
>Your entire reason for holding SQQQ is betting on a dramatic 2008-esque crash that may not come for a very long time

What is this image even meant to mean? AMRS made that look like TQQQ a few weeks ago and i made 5 digits off that trade and still holding for 6-7. of course SQQQ is doing shit the economy is doing great. That's why in the next two years it'll be such a great investment. Someone as autistic as you has no idea that recessions are very fucking healthy and aren't the end of the world. In 1-2 years SQQQ can slowly reach 20s-30s and that's being modest.

>>13389875
LCI going to $40

>>13394915
>What is this image even meant to mean

that's what happens when you put your money into SQQQ long term
taken from https://www.splithistory.com/sqqq/

>>13394915
you said in >>13390530 that "the best long term stock to buy right now is SQQQ"
if you actually buy in right now and hold until a recession, your money will be continuously decaying until that happens, and SQQQ will likely have to do at least one r/s in that time period to keep its price in an area that the people managing it like

>Someone as autistic as you has no idea that recessions are very fucking healthy and aren't the end of the world

I'm fully aware that recessions are healthy and natural, actually

>In 1-2 years SQQQ can slowly reach 20s-30s and that's being modest.

and in the mean time you'll be continuously hemorrhaging money while sitting around and hoping that now will finally be the time the market enters a recession

>>13394995
Yeah, long term in a good market retard.
>>13394995
the idea is that you would add on and on as time goes on you keep adding. I'd personally slowly add until 5 then add massive amounts. I literally cited the anon above me in the thread.

>dip below 6.50 in about 4 months so if it does then it means it’s time to move on
thats what shorts want you to do you weakling. they are playing on patience. They are paying interest on all those shares borrowed. There will be a time when they will cover just because they will get tired of paying the interest.

>>13394394
>My question is, what would the catalyst be for an increase of buying volume?
It could be any of the 12-16 drugs they still have to release this year.. could be more distribution agreements.. could be announcing another debt solution.

All it'll take is for a fraction of those shorts to cover to boost volume.. when the volume boost the short ratio will go down.

This is a long squeeze, gotta be patient and let shorts pile in. When I first started mentioning LCI here it was 50% short.. now it's 70%.. shorts are revenge trading.. going to want as many shorts in as possible before moving up.

Imagine if the stock gets over $10 BEFORE shorts start to cover

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-ZfcqUczXc

>>13395029
If I was running the company and I wanted that SA article to lose steam I'd start releasing distribution agreements and drug release news soon.

I'm going to keep a look out for that.

This chart might be a possibly bear trap if that's the case.

that SA article didn't do much for the shorts.. they were using it to cover.. they manipulated the price down and didn't cover shit.. nobody wants to sell to them.. they're getting desperate thats the second article in like a month that SA put out. Retail is peanuts in this trade look at institutional ownership. Tutes are the ones lending out shares collecting interest.. they don't need to get them back anytime soon to sell because they are collecting massive interest on them. Big Tutes didn't sell on the drop.. they aren't selling now.. shorts need those shares from tutes.. watch SS closesly. LCI closed at a nice spot for options expiration.. shorts that are hedging with calls are getting fucked because they aren't hitting their strike and still have all those shares short that they could have been planning to cover with calls that hit the strike.

>>13395053
>This chart might be a possibly bear trap if that's the case.
Pretty sure it's a bear trap. If you're long in LCI right now you want shorts to load up.. they will be the fuel to the rocket.

>>13395028
>Yeah, long term in a good market retard.

this is what will keep happening until the market turns
I'm not claiming that it's never a good idea to buy SQQQ, just that it's not a good idea to hold it and wait for something to happen
when it gets below 5, the possibility of an r/s to inflate the share price becomes increasingly likely
the time to buy it is when the market starts to turn

>>13395095
>this is what will keep happening until the market turns
market will be hitting all time highs soon. Economy is full steam ahead. As long as people are still blindly adding to IRA accounts and 401ks.. we're gunna just keep going up. Going to need something big to bring the market down.

A lot of people itt don't really go out much so they wouldn't understand that there are a lot productive people out there

>>13395181
betting against the natural tendency of the market go up in the long term is retarded, especially if you're using leveraged instruments with TVIX or SQQQ
the single best way to destroy money in the stock market is to hold one of those long term in a bull market

How is AMRS fillings looking? I heard DSM bought something from them? Is DSM still in the picture? I remember them owning a bunch of series C shares.. also remember most of their revenue came from DSM.. if DSM took that part of AMRS that was bringing in revenue but still kept their toxic shares... then AMRS could be a disaster soon.

This CBD situation they got going on could be lucrative IF they don't sign some other toxic fucking deal to fund it... if they start issueing more Series C for the CBD funding it'll be the same exact situation with DSM......... I would not be suprised to AMRS in OTC in the next 3 years... maybe even some SEC/FBI investigations surrounding it.

I deal a lot with OTC stocks and what AMRS is doing is exactly what a lot of OTC stocks do

>>13395203
If the market enters a bear market those instruments will be all right imo.. I just think for now.. theres no reason for the market to stop. Nothing has been bringing it down. The economy isn't doing extremely well but it's doing well enough to keep this market going up.. it's going to be really fun and interesting when it finally tanks.

I was all drunk the other day and ran into a "financial advisor" I was talking to him for awhile about retirement.. He started talking about warren buffet as if he was the only guy to pay attention to in the market.. I asked him if he knew about Ray Dalio he kinda gave me like a confused look and was like.. umm.. yeah.. like an unsure answer...

I find it weird that a "financial advisor" doesn't know who Ray Dalio is. Imo People like Ray Dalio are very important to the market because he understands more about the economy than just stocks. If this "financial advisor" is just trying to get everyone to way warren buffet does things it could get interesting when everyone that just buys and holds ends up selling because they get scared out of the market

>>13395262
>If the market enters a bear market those instruments will be all right imo

fully agree with that

>I asked him if he knew about Ray Dalio

I downloaded a pdf of Principles, but I haven't read it yet
He definitely seems really knowledgeable when it comes to stocks and the economy, but I remember seeing him make a tweet talking about people being left/right brained (which is a common myth, but scientifically false)

>>13395262
A bear market is unlikely but we are seeing a slowdown and with the FUD from the Bernie kike it hit healthcare hard and dragged a lot of things with it some people like myself told people on this board to wait till Monday to jump back into healthcare and articles are all saying we should see jumps tomorrow but that doesn’t mean everything is all well
We have earnings on some of the biggest companies on the nasdaq/Dow/s&p and we’ll be relying on them to pick the market up if more than 2 of them report bad shit then we’ll be seeing a downhill spiral for a few days.
3 events can stop this:
Bernie dies
China trade deal completes with farmers and US coming out on top and all papers are visible
Global growth sees an increase slightly
Now not saying they all have to happen but if only one of them does it could change the market up

>>13395921
>Bernie does
Holy kek you know things are bad when you see the death of a candidate for the primaries as something turnaround the market.

His damage is done, the dem candidates all call for single payer now. Still not gonna happen.

>>13396159
Nobody honestly believes the dems are going to win 2020 and if the China deal is all smiles for the US you can bet they won’t be winning as trump would capture his core constituency that one him the last election. It’s already priced in at this point what single payer health would do now it’s just watching things climb back up and down like normal with a slight boost to healthcare since they ranked so hard
Honestly Bernie dying would be great as it could also allow for dems to retract single payer health since right now that’s Bernie’s main selling point

>>13396427
Re-election looks likely but there is black swan potential.

If we get a severe economic downturn before november 2020, dems could win. Still no trade deal, and if he can’t successfully brand the eventual compromise as a victory, it will be bad for gop. Brexit still not solved, and global economy in a tailspin with based japs looking ready for recess with no survivors.

If Bernie dies, single payer pipe dream will live on. If trump dies, Wall Dream dies with him, but Pence Pump will be good for market.

I prefer to gauge it based on a half ass profile of voter psychology. How many 2016 Trump voters would be so displeased by his administration that they are prepared to vote for someone as far left as Bernie? These are the same people who selected The Donald over the somewhat less radical Hilldawgs. Dems have no chance with the caliber of candidates they have thus far put up for consideration. Moderate voters are always the key.

Anyway. Boo politics. Healthcare dip was stupid. Bounce imminent.

Yes, yes, and god I hope so.

Bought one UNH when doing my scattershot on Friday, and think I want more pretending tomorrow and maybe more weeds as well.

If the trump recession starts soon, by the time Nov 2020 comes around, I could see his base saying fuck it and straying home. Which is fine by me, I don’t like the people he appoints and I dont think RBG has another 6 years in her. Divided govt is good for economy & markets, letting one party’s agenda run wild is like inviting bobo to dinner.

I wouldn't underestimate the cross appeal between trump and sanders. What most people don't realize is there isn't a big body of moderates in america, and neither do ideologies on one side prefer moderate versions of the other side. Rather, people often take the radical stance on most issues, but they don't usually align these stances across traditional left right binaries.

Right now, the contest is a toss up whether the dems nominate Biden or Sanders, most others will loose outright most likely. A recession, which I think is likely, will almost assuredly destroy trump's chances, however.

Amazon and Microsoft are reporting earnings this week.

Fucking hate earnings season.

>>13398230
I think it's very likely that Biden would win, but I still think Sanders is too far left for most voters that are politically centrist ("moderates")

>>13398273
why?

t. just getting into trading

>>13398282

Will be curious to see if the Pelosi/Biden or Omar/Ocasio-Cortez wing of the party prevails.

Progressive Dems may still not be in the mood for an establishment white male candidate (see 2008, 2012, 2016).

>>13398324
Because usually the big boys report after hours and if it's bad it ends up moving the markets and affecting your positions the next day because of a market sell off.

Sup muchachos,
I'm still learning options trading. So far I've lost a few hundred on BAC and aapl calls. What's a good stock to make calls/puts to make my $$ back?

>>13398340
They never will want a white male candidate. They pushed tribal politics and will die by it. Even Jews are now being run out and the tribal groups making up their coalition don't care for each other. There is only so much 'hate whitey' rhetoric even those different tribes will believe to hold it together.

If there ever comes a time where elite white liberals actually have their wealth threatened, they will cease their bullshit pretty quickly. But they've been thoroughly insulated from the consequences of their actions for a long time. Witness their reaction to the notion of sanctuary cities getting all the immigrants.

>>13398282
Once Trump gently reminds people that they lose their current healthcare and get a tax hike Bernie will auto-lose.

>>13398377

Maybe. I wonder how many "do this for the good of the party" the progressive wing will suck up for the establishment before they finally say screw it. Evidence suggests they may already be there or are getting close.

Either way, it will be interesting.

Alright seriously I’m holding fucking CGC calls for Friday what’s the likelihood it jumps back to 46-47 on this new acquisition news from their other arm? I’m hearing people talk that the resistance is between 45-50 which hopefully bodes well but also hear talk about dilution. Now that’s of course pending the Acreage deal which is still technically up in the air but will it FUD investors or make them pump more?
I know one of you faggots on here has an answer there’s insiders in r/wallstreetbets and I’ve seen insiders here so give me a clue

Most polls have dems planning to vote on electability alone. All the front runners are white men at this point.

>>13398465
Disney's marketshare make them a good long term bet, although I wouldn't recommend holding much equity at this point anyway. Best to sell and go into bonds.

>>13398572
Fox News cheering him is exactly what the right wants. Bernie is easily defeated by Trump as long as the economy is healthy. They know this. The left is taking the bait.

Biden is your only real chance.

>>13398469
I hope so

>>13398592
Biden is a terrible campaigner, much better to have someone who is consistent. And I wouldn't bet on the economy remaining healthy that long in the slightest.

>>13398583
Explain the appeal of bonds without referencing your model.

>>13398612
Lower volatility and by most accounts interest rates can only go down from here. I would only buy the best graded debt, however.

>>13398610
You get a terrible campaigner who is electable, or a man whose policies don't work and is only popular with the young and dumb. And thats all assuming tribal politics doesn't kill all their electability on the left anyway.

We're not four years from the election. Its coming up. The economy won't tank between now and then.

>>13398638
Before fed minutes came out, some big finance tutes were forecasting rate raises, not sure if it’s changed.

Do bonds even keep pace with inflation?

>>13398648
The initially yield curve inversions happened in December of last year, and then again in march, meaning that a recession occurring before the election is incredibly likely.

>You get a terrible campaigner who is electable, or a man whose policies don't work and is only popular with the young and dumb.
This is just blatant bias. A terrible campaigner is not electable. Someone's popularity with a certain demographic isn't a handicap.

>>13398658
Rate hike talk pretty much got shut down after the inversion.

>Do bonds even keep pace with inflation?
Some do. For government bonds, you'd be looking at TIPS (Treasury Inflation Protected Securities) which have a small base interest rate that is added to the inflation rate for their returns.

For me, it's value investing

>>13398690
>>13398658
Btw, if you're referring to non-inflation indexed bonds, you can get agency bonds up to 3..5% yields right now, which beats inflation by about 1.5%

>>13398706
Value by what metric?

These threads are cancer

>all fields

>>13398706
Are you accumulating Kraft Heinz as well?

>>13398720
I don’t know what I’m referring to, I can’t into bonds. I don’t know why you say buy junk bonds at the bottom. I don’t know what makes them junk. What happens if interest rates change while I’m holding a bond, does the rate adjust? Otherwise, why would someone want to buy someone else’s bonds instead of just buying directly from govt?

I have a 25 year bond that should have finished maturing last year, not sure what I even do with it.

>>13398754
Oops. They’re actually 30 year patriot bonds that mature in 2032

>>13398754
No, don't buy junk bonds, never buy junk bonds, I've never suggested that.

If the interest rates change while you're holding a bond, for example, rise, then the price of the bond will fall such that the actual yield for the buyer, their return for their money, is about the same as buying the new bonds.

So it’s very bad news for bondholders when the fed raises rates.

Your wording it is very confusing to me. I’d hate to sit out on bonds the way I’ve sat out on crypto and cannabis just because I don’t understand the value.

yo bonds aren't gonna blow up the way crypto did in the past
you have nothing but time, do your research
learning about fed rates and bond rates is important and rewarding
do your own research my n-word I believe in you

you can grab bonds on their own
you can also invest in bond funds
important difference, but the underlying principles of bonds remain the same
higher risk, higher reward
but the risk should be generally lower than other asset classes

>>13398825
be on your way ->

>US FUTURES

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA. Tomorrow will go down in history as Bloody Easter. 2008 version 2.0 here we come. Peter Schiff was right again.

>>13398819
It's bad news for bondholders when the Fed raises rates, but its good news if they lower rates, assuming they want to sell.

As I mentioned, bonds are far lower volatility than other kinds of assets, especially the low risk kind I'm talking about. So they won't explode either up or down the way crypto or cannabis will. I'd expect the most you could make on price fluctuations on long term debt at the moment would be around 20-25%

I'm guessing he was just trying to get more people to short,not sure who would want to short a stock with 74% short interest and 86% tute owned. He always just repeats the same shit which most of the time is just bullshit..

Maybe big money shorts are going to try to cover with retail shorts ?? whatever is going is very strange.. I've been doing this same strategy for years and I don't think I've seen something like this. I've seen the drop overnight plenty of time but never have I seen shorts not cover and tutes not sell.. LCI is very fucking interesting.

I went back to their filings of 2012-2013 .. their O/S share count was around 28 mil. They have not put many shares out there at all.. most of which are employees options.. It ran to $60 with that o/s count which is now the float. Something very.. very fishy is going on LCI with my opinion.. all of us retail traders are nothing in this fight but we can help. I only have 3815 shares right now, trying to get a little over 4,000 shares within the next week or two... that little amount is just that.. a little amount.

Shorts wont be able cover unless tutes sell to them and it's obvious they aren't selling yet.. got to keep an eye on short interest in relation to tute ownership just in case some tute wants to hand over shares in a SPA.. but I doubt it.. most tutes aren't going to fall for the bullshit shorts are playing on LCI right now...

how do short squeezes work?
Is it illegal for a hedge fund to own a small supply of the stock they're shorting, then sell it to drive down demand in case they need to cover or suppress upward momentum, like a little hedge against their short?

Can they just call up a buddy and wink at them over the phone so they'll do it for them at another firm?

>>13399930
both of us are lying
You're probably lying to
Are you that anon who's always talking about their fancy strangles and straddle strategies that the world has never seen?

>>13399941

I'm not 100% sure how that works.. but i'm sure a lot of big funds holding are taking bearish positions to hedge their longs. but keep in mind when big funds are holding they are getting money on the shares they are loaning out. They know whats going on. If they want to sell their shares they will need to get them back from the shorts.

I was listening to an interview awhile ago of a pro trader that would basically take large positions sort of like straddle but not option based. Then if the stock started to break out toward the upside he would cover his short and add to the long, and vice versa if it went the other way.

The thing though with these big funds is that a lot of times they deal with a SPA so whoever is shorting this could come to an agreement to a set price for some stock and it wouldn't really effect market price... only problem is that 86% is owned by tutes... most of which bough above 13.. I don't think they are planning to sell anytime soon when they are getting paid for just lending shares out to shorts. They may have puts in place.. but I doubt they are shorting when they are already gaining interest on the bears borrowing shares..

thats the way I see it.

>This billionaire says you need to understand the language of accounting
accounting changed my life.. as well as basic economics

>>13399970
At which age did you start learning it?

>>13399958
I mean, yea, you should understand basic accounting principles. A + L = E type shit you know? All it really is, is just another tool used to understand money and how it moves a little bit better.

Hopefully that money moves into you

>>13399984
When you understand accounting at a deeper level you gain insights into the "mentality" of the people managing the company. Are they prudent and completely honest? Do the try to cut corners?

>>13399983
I didn't go back to school until i was about 23... before that I really didn't do much besides work and stack cash.

Some 19 year old kid got me started in stocks in my accounting class.. which was the first class i took. Very strange long story of how I ended up doing what I do with corporate debt.. but it basically started by meeting that kid

Hell if I'd know, fundamentalists and ta fags both swing on the day of the rope. But I do know, there's at least 1 jew somewhere on that board of members and they'll pull their kikery nonsense into generating profits.

what language do they use? java?
it's probably hard to have the patience for basic shit being taught really slowly

>>13400086
yeah.. they say toward the end there will be some java but right now they are going over basic shit like malware and how to use word.. I haven't been reading the book just taking the quizes.. but I haven't had the time. I've been focusing on my business law class.. but everytime i'm doing it i'm thinking to myself "fucking 2scoops mother fucker"

it's not the quizes it's the "projects" like going through word and performing task. they take like 2 hours...

>>13400127
>how to use word
I lol‘d. College is fucking useless.

>>13400138
it really is.. I make more money with no degree than whatever most of these fuck heads are going to make with their degree...

but not all degrees are useless.. i'm going for business and economics.. working toward finance... all pretty useless imo

>>13400127
>right now they are going over basic shit like malware and how to use word
oh my god, that sounds so painful.
I can write malware and I can get a job writing the code that runs word.
>business law class
that sounds fun.
what type of college is this? community, state, or somewhere between?

>"projects" like going through word and performing task. they take like 2 hours
I understand the kind of project that you're describing now, and this sounds so awful

>>13400156
>i'm going for business and economics.. working toward finance... all pretty useless imo
half of that business degree is "business administration" shit like HR.
Marketing provides value, although a lot of it can be hard to stomach. HR provides little value after already getting diluted down substantially with all that diversity bullshit.
I did a business minor, and I shit you not, the HR textbook had 3 fucking chapters dedicated to the fine subject of diversity & inclusion.

>>13400173
it's community.. I usually do well in school but I've been so fucking busy making money lately.. the business law is whatever.. i wouldn't even call it business law it's basically just basic law.

I'm not going to school for a degree.. just going to sharpen my skills. One day I want to program basic shit, i Learned a little bit of python using pycharm.. but not enough to do anything with

>>13400188
yeah most of it's bullshit... I have a mentor thats 60 something years old multi millionaire.. and he teaches me shit that they just don't teach in school.. he wants me to stay in school tho.. so i will

>>13400191
>I'm not going to school for a degree.. just going to sharpen my skills
that'll be tough to do at a community college; they usually shoot more for the "teaching a trade" territory
I personally stick more towards googling shit and straight up reading documentation like this stuff:
https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/react-&-webpack.html
https://webpack.js.org/concepts
https://reactjs.org/docs/hello-world.html
https://redux.js.org/basics/usage-with-react

/g/ is a bunch of neckbeards doing support tickets in IT; not real software engineers btw.

>One day I want to program basic shit, i Learned a little bit of python using pycharm.. but not enough to do anything with
I think the most productive way to learn it is as a means towards an end -- have a project in mind and pick up the tools necessary to do it; otherwise, you merely learn moronic syntax shit like for loops.
This website was super helpful when I was getting started beyond the basic java stuff: https://www.w3schools.com/

>python using pycharm
I usually just use sublime text and run stuff directly off of the command line when I'm doing python.
Python is a decent language, although it was very hard for me to take seriously initially.
Python is the go-to language for machine learning; this is a popular library/framework for doing short ML scripts in python:
https://scikit-learn.org/stable/auto_examples/index.html
This is a nice back-end server framework for python:
http://flask.pocoo.org/

I think one of my first big projects was setting up a LAMP server to try and write my own forum. I'd now use Flask and ReactJS with something like SQLite or PostgreSQL though.

>I have a mentor thats 60 something years old multi millionaire.. and he teaches me shit that they just don't teach in school..
the industry is the best mentor. I got a bachelor's in CS, and it was no match for what came with my couple of internships or first year of industry experience.
>he wants me to stay in school tho.. so i will
what are his expectations of what you'll get from staying in school?
For me, the most valuable thing that I got from school was industry connections for places to work at and peers that I wanted to work with.
There was only a couple of courses in which I actually felt that I genuinely learned very much that was directly applicable on the job.
In fact, the majority of it felt very "academia" and was rarely applicable or second-nature to the algorithmic work that I do on the job, and is usually used as a litmus test during interviews.

>>13400264
>vue
I've heard that's catching on.
I have no idea how it got so popular among college students because it's not really that prevalent in the industry yet.

its got traction in china cause the guy who made it is a chink afaik
and its not from facebook/google

>>13400288
>its got traction in china cause the guy who made it is a chink afaik
Oh, right, I heard that too. What I don't understand is how the fuck it caught on in colleges so much faster than tech companies. Do the chinks have vast influence on american college campuses? Why did it catch on so much more than Angular or ReactJS?

>and its not from facebook/google
I heard that the creator worked on AngularJS (1.0), but was disappointed with the direction that Angular (2.0) was going, with the super component-based shit.

>>13400373
It's easier to learn I think. You can just use parts of it w/o really basing your whole app/front end around it.
