>>54774985
im short some SPY 416 Calls expiring today. Is that the 4pm price or the 4:15pm price? The fuck is this shit you nigger loving cunts? Am I playing 1v1. Why do you want my 4 contracts so bad you niggerloving cock suckers?

God, the Saturn 5 was cool.

Im going to be a millionaire when FRC goes up 1000% next week

got caught in the bear trap on wed
oh well, thinkin' we'll be back down there in a week

Anyone else bagholding SQQQ

>>54775003
You're about 99seconds too late sorry bud.
>>54775009
Fdic blocks your path.

>>54775016
im all in

Death to Vislink (VISL) and you should be shorting it for free money.

>First Republic Bank

You guys know threads don't fall off the board until page 10, right? The last one still has hours left.

>>54775004
>implying the Saturn V was ever actually constructed to scale and launched
look it was pretty cool, but everybody knows the moon landing was a hoax almost as big as 9/11 and a the holocaust.

So anybody else kind of surprised that inflation seems to be subsiding as much as it is? I know it's a bit early to call the battle "over" but truflation is calling it at 4%. I still think 4% is gonna be sticky as shit, but if core comes down to below 5%, I'm curious how long until we reach 4% on the core number, and whether or not the fed really truly continues.

I've had a stance that Powell would continue rate hikes until either A) the job is done or B) he breaks something, and we're definitely seeing B happen. Nobody gives a damn what Elizabeth Warren's cunt mind things, but does anybody here really truly think we'll keep trending down until core is at 2% and at this point inflation is defeated? Am I missing something?

>>54775004
I kept expecting something bad to happen

>>54775031

you can still post in it

ON NO NEWS

>>54775038
Cleveland Fed nowcast says 5.5% It actually went up slightly from last month. The nowcasts have been very reliable, unlike truflation.

>>54775050
im actually worried that i have been sticking to the bear side for too long now. after i get out of this i might take a break.

>>54775018
>You're about 99seconds too late sorry bud.
what happens? are they worthless or not? I dont feel like calling my broker right now to find out. Insane, that's why i didn't sell i wanted to see what the fuck happens. The fuck is this shit?

Haha, whew, I was worried for a day or two but looks like TSLA, VOO, BOIL, and SOXL were the right move after all.

>>54775066

Bros, what the FUCK did AMZN just do today??? I thought they were going to pump over $120 in price after earnings, fuck.

>>54775038
You should look up what base effects are.

For everyone's reference, monthly CPI last April was 0.4, last May 0.9, and last June 1.2. For the next 3 months it was 0, 0.2, and 0.4.

>>54775063
big if true, and also concerning I think. I'm not sure where any of this is going if Powell can't keep jacking rates up. I'm wondering what these retarded democrats are gonna do when inflation isn't coming down after they shut down the economy printed a ton of money and then think they can just scapegoat powell so they can put up a minority instead who makes things worse

>>54775088

Remember chuds, not being a gigabull during a 1929-tier tightening cycle makes you a heckin financial terrorist. Joe Biden has the Best Economy Ever™.

Guided down for AWS (aka the only part of the business that makes any money)

>>54775066
What do you mean by "short some calls" like you wrote them? because at a close over 416 if you wrote them and held them through close you are obligated to buy 400 shares of spy at 416.

>>54775101
What if you flew the fagflag upside down?

>>54775101
What's the alternative?

Is there a more depressing chart then xerox? Just imagine being a shareholder in april of 1999 not knowing that was that. And then you come back from the dotcom bubble only to slide back down in 2007. That important of a company and even GE or IBM mogs you. Even the dividenders dont even consider you.

Anyone who works with cloud (like me) knows that Azure is eating AWS alive, AWS is overpriced and not a good competitor to Azure anymore.

>>54775100
bullish?

>>54775104
that's the only growth potential but commerce is still the vast majority of the business. 2.3bil vs 900mil

>>54775104
>>54775133
Huh, well I guess we will have to see if AMZN will do even more layoffs and shit this year

>>54775125
What has Xerox even done since the 1980s? It's a zombie company.

>>54775141
Th-thanks for your help, FRC cat.

I'm sure you know what comes next.

>>54775003
lol imagine being short 400 shares of SPY through the weekend. Hope the premium was worth it.

>>54775016
I cut my losses and bought into UVIX yesterday

>>54775164
they already expired anon

VIX 15.75
WTF is going on. Rate kike next week too. Just WTF. Are we approaching some kind of resolution or Mr Snibs gonna ignore even the next rate kike and act like it's nothing that FRC is about to fail?.
>>54775159
I know Mr Snibs is likely going to be our near term future but a triple top seems to be forming so things may be coming to a head finally.
I'm so tired of this shit.

>>54775145
Layoffs are good for business.

>>54775186
VIX prices volatility for 30 days from now.

There won't be a market 30 days from now.

>>54775179
The holder has until 5:30pm ET today to exercise.

>>54775100
Doesn't matter. It's already priced in.

>>54775186
tripple top? You should see an eye doctor

>>54775186
I'm guessing it might be because companies have already done a lot of layoffs and trimmed the fat. Rates going from 4.75 to 5.00 is nothing on the companies that survive 0.25 -> 4.75

>>54775186
VIX shorts are back in style

>>54775204

>>54775031
They're baking at 200 now. 200. Pretty soon smggers are gonna be out here baking at 50. SAD!

>>54775204
Stfu fool

>>54775111
>like you wrote them?
yes exactly, I wrote them. I am "short" the call, not long the call. What time is close for SPY? 4pm or 4:15pm?

There's no more FDIC insurance money after FRC. They're being deliberately opaque with how much money is left in the insurance fund, otherwise more banks would start getting hit.

>>54775229
could be an inverted head and shoulders, unlikely or a wedge, possible. Could also be a wxy flat correction coming to a close, but nowhere is a triple top to be seen

>>54775229
Zoom out.

>>54775240
FDIC has no cap, its a government entity.

>>54775238
point at the three alledged tops I see non.

>>54775179
>>54775198
this is the info i needed, thanks. But for automatic exercise is the SPY close price the 4pm price or the 4:15pm price?

>>54775245
>but nowhere is a triple top to be seen
>It only counts when it perfectly lines up
Ah, a coping mumu.

>>54775038
I'll still never be able to afford a home.

And if inflation is coming down, as you claim, by what mechanism is it subsiding? Is it subsiding on its own? Or are enough people actually losing their jobs as was intended?

>>54775239
Buy them back dude, but you're using the wrong terminology nobody says "short a call". Actually don't do anything you're a millionaire now.

>>54775264
Fuck off you stupid fuck lol

>>54775263
No, that's wrong. It's paid for by bank insurance fees. There were only ~$200B in the fund at the start of this year, but it's supposed to insure many trillions in banking assets.

>>54775234
Me and gookfu just got the my pillow 2.0s with the new technology in them. they really are the best pillows on the planet. 10/10 worth every penny. plus they're made in america, you know how much we need to encourage american manufacturing.

>>54775049
It used to be that 4chan was a place where people could should share high quality information in an unstructured way. It is now just a place for some fucking bitch and all of her shithead glowfaggot friends to grief people who are simply trying to live their lives.

>>54775287
wait, you mean from the move starting in October. That is your triple top

>>54775305
they are easy to ignore and easier to bait. literal bpd soziopathic tard niggers

>>54775269
Is arguably a quintuple

>>54775292
It's literally a government entity. This is a fact. The size of the fund is arbitrary because its backstopped by our ability to print infinite money.
I'm not saying it provides that insurance for free. I'm aware there are fees. The intent is still to operate efficiently.

>>54775274
>nobody says "short a call
thats why i say it
>Actually don't do anything
that's the play whatever happens happens

>>54775332
you know the more times it bumps it's head on the glass ceiling like that, the weaker the structure gets and the higher the likelyhood of it breaking through that ceiling right?

>>54775305

That's a man.

The fact that the market is swinging more than a couple on Florida should show you what’s about to happen.

nah its a she, never seen such a clumsy attention whore, tbf I literally didn't seen them until recently, completely faded that glow nigger troup because they were just too blatant and boring

>>54775343
No FDIC is technically private, just like the federal reserve is. It’s independent from the government. Just because the government back stops those institutions to “give faith to the people” (lol) doesn’t mean they are government run.

>>54775343
No, you're wrong again. It's supposed to be independent, according to its charter. It's called the Federal Deposit Insurance CORPORATION for a reason.

It's a literal tranny LARPing as a woman. That's why HE's so unhinged.

I can't believe I missed the bottom AGAIN

Days like today are why faggots like Jew Sosnoff and the tastycunts are not to be trusted under any circumstance. I can remember watching a video of theirs on selling options where the fund manager they were interviewing says "once I collect the premium I'm not giving it back". Do you know what would have saved me some braincells? Giving $10 out of $110 back and not have to deal with expiration nonsense... but nooooooooo I remember that quote in my head and say "sure why not lets try it". You fuckers smell like the niggers you love so much. Hilarious. Another lesson learned

>>54775186
The events of 2020-2023 desensitized people to bad happenings. The market does not care about bad happenings anymore, because "bad" is the new normal and therefore not bad but neutral. At least in their mind. The market will continue to pump and shrug every bad happening until reality makes it so they must sell. Even with nuclear war (the next big happening) you won't see SPY dip below 390.

pushing rates up causes the rates of services to go up, and more people are spending more on services and less on products. That's how I'm looking at it. The problem is cost of goods is still fucking high because of input cost of energy and other factors

EPA is also independent, as is the FBI. I don't think you understand what that means. There are plenty of "independent" government agencies that've been created over time through various legislation.
They have their own management and internal control when it comes to hiring and policy decisions, but they still fall under the umbrella of the government on the whole. FDIC specifically falls under congress, there are no outside shareholders.

Federal reserve is a bit different.

Anybody eyeing the Activision/Blizzard buyout? Microsoft was set to buy at around $95 a share which would be pretty decent pump especially with options
The UK blocked the acquisition but I have confidence it will eventually go through, not sure when though

Need /smg/ to weigh in, PAC or CAAP, need some confirmation bias that I bought the right stock.

>>54775593
That doesn't refute anything I've said. Take a second, turn your brain on, think about who the shareholders are.

how can those fuckers in the UK tell Americans what they can and can't do? Are we going to have to go 1776 again on their ass?

>>54775853
This is the weirdest market dichotomy I've ever seen. And the fact that we don't know which way it could break is just part of the insanity. But I think the macro picture is overall very bearish for the usual yield curve reasons and bank failures. Rate hikes next week and the month after next too.
Plus VIX being retarded here
I'm even willing to accept mumus have a point. Shit is just very uncertain. But eventually it will probably break in favor of bobos.

Well after no FRC deal in a few days I sold right at 9:30. Figured the Govt takeover was round the bend in which case I'd have gotten the shaft. Yes it was a small investment (very small) and I lot a bit on the deal but still. A small loss is better than a total one. Ended up good though. Rolled the remaining into more WBD which hey went up today. Also added to my tax break pile for 2023's taxes when its time for that again.

>>54775888
Ok, I'll take one final bite. The word "independent" is not found once within the main contents of that page you linked.
You know what is found though...? I'll give you a hint, read the first sentence.
>The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is a United States government corporation
>United States government
>government

In fact, even the governance over the FDIC itself is not truly handled independently. It is directly handled by appointees chosen by the president:
>The Board of Directors is the governing body of the FDIC. The board is composed of five members, three appointed by the president of the United States with the consent of the United States Senate and two ex officio members
But these agencies do still like to claim independence. In a limited way, it is true that they get to make their own internal decisions without pushing every single action back upwards to the president to sign off on.

For the record, USPS is also a government entity. Being that these are government entities, any theoretical profit/loss/funding caps are as imaginary as the debt ceiling.

>>54776030
Honestly I was hoping to get something, but meh...

>>54776039
>In fact, even the governance over the FDIC itself is not truly handled independently. It is directly handled by appointees chosen by the president
So is the Fed chair. Just admit you're wrong.

lol they announce the FRC takeover right after market close cause they didnt want it rattling anything. now they have 2 days to assuage everyone.

their 'job' should have nothing to do with the stock market. the stock market should have no influence on the timing of their announcement. but it does, because it is the lipstick on the pig that is the US economy.

>>54776189
Put sellers hold out to zero because they don't want to pay brokerage fees/commissions and eat the 1 cent bid to close out something worthless.
Put buyers can't exercise because most brokerages give strict time limits, so their OTM puts expire worthless despite the massive AH dump.

Meanwhile the MMs get that last minute exercise to dump on those sellers. The point is, either way retail gets fucked. They might halt trading for 3 weeks come Monday as well, so there's no market to trade remaining options into. That's how they did SVB.

Argumentum ad populum, a wise choice. I do appreciate the irony that those very sources proved my point.

I really don't understand what you're getting out of this exchange. From my perspective it's mildly funny to repeatedly dunk on some moron, but do you really enjoy pretending to be retarded this much?
Or perhaps you actually do have a mental impairment?

>>54776259

How will I know if a MM manually exercises an option at 5:29pm that I wrote? Do you just log in and find out the next day?... Tune in next time! Or do they at least send you an email saying you have been selected for assignment? What's the lagtime on finding out whether someone exercised against me?

>>54776245
If you're selling premium, you should be closing like 3 weeks prior to expiration. You're playing with fire by taking on that much gamma risk. I have like 1 single 0dte trade going every day (and only like 1-2% of portfolio) just to juice my daily p/l, but I will not risk the rest of my portfolio on it.

Your broker should let you know the next day. I'm not sure exactly when the options clearing house contacts the brokerages. Sometime after the cutoff, obviously.
I'm not an expert on the precise rules, but I believe 5:30 pm is the absolute cutoff for submitting a request of options exercise. However it may depend partially on the exchange.

>>54776372
In theory I'd agree, but it's easy to see the effectively worthless option and just stop caring. Fees reduce profit, especially if the contracts were only worth a few pennies in the first place.

The most awkward I've experienced is when an stock closes with the sold contract OTM, but I still get assigned because my counterparty hedged it away in the middle of the trading day during an hour where the option had been trading ITM. Then I get stuck with overnight risk for the whole weekend.

>>54776566
I actually made a ton of money on 3-7 dte spy put spreads in 2020, and I would typically carry them all the way to expiration. I used to do that very thing, and pin risk was very real. It was so damn stressful. Increasing duration and closing way before that ever becomes a problem was an enormous stress reliever. It's not as much of a dopamine hit when things go your way, but it's a lot more stable.

>>54776309
I can just watch them and when I see them drop enough pennies I can buy up a bunch, sell it all on the next rip, then buy another dollar and start again. Plus, I can just be holding *something*, and with BTC, line will move somewhere at all times. It's my new Way.

i've heard the word 'deposits' so much i spontaneously associate it with defecation. imagine going to a bank and leaving a fat nasty shit right in the middle of the floor. imagine a bank whose sole business is described the same way as people who regularly go there to excrete massive turds for safe keeping and having these put on the balance sheets. imagine the quarterly reports

I see a rising wedge, anon...

Newegg had the 20TB seagate hdd on sale, 57% off!. $299.00. I couldn't bag it. (I need 6). Least not now. Other things needing my attention first (aka green sucking). Now yeah I could've tossed the lot of 6 on my credit card. But that combined with my existing balance would've quickly made the savings a moot point once interest got tacked on. Fucking hate being a responsible adult sometimes..

>>54776724

>>54776724

No debating that. I can see it visibly today in BTU closing at 24.02

Inflation won't stop until the Fed puts the reserve requirements back at 10% or higher. But they will never do that because they're too corrupt.

>>54776566
I wrote four 4/28/23 SPY 416 contracts. SPY closed just below $416 so I didn't get auto assigned but then the underlying went up to $416.30 for a bit after hours. Someone could have exercised during the hours of 4:00pm to 5:30pm and I could potentially wake up to an account that is short 400 shares but won't know till tomorrow or Monday I guess. I'll just pay the $.65 cents per contract and close out before that becomes an issue. Not worth the headache for an extra $10

>>54776861
>April 7, 2023

Compare that to the latest from Fight Club Brad Pitt:
>And on the other side of the ledger, commercial bank lending rose $15.08 billion in the period after increasing $13.8 billion in the prior week on a seasonally adjusted basis. On an unadjusted basis, loans and leases rose $20.9 billion after two weeks of loan contractions.

>Small bank loan growth slowed notably with only $4.04bn lent (vs $10.4bn the prior week) while large bank lending re-accelerated to $9.13bn

it was people not banks, banks wheeled out the nigger programs to ramp lending back up.

regional banks cannot lend to small business when they are being consolidated by big banks... that is what we are seeing right now.

Eh, the FDIC and FRC's assets will be enough to make them whole. Point is though that chunk shows up in the negative bars. I guarantee you the F.E.D.'s looking at those 3 recent weeks of loan growth and putting June on the table.

>>54775058
She’s such a cutie

>>54777047
What are you gonna do when we reach terminal and they confirm it? June 25 would be wild, but obviously i'm not qualified to make those decisions. For me at terminal rate i'm longing the far end of the bonds TLT leaps /en long.

>>54775717
UPDATE
while after market
is still open
i decided to up
all of these
by $9
to total $10
so as to have
more granularity
than movements
of 10%
Incidentally, VOO is already down
to $9.99

>>54777110
So that's June 14th, yeah? Assume they pause - the base effect kicks in, YoY inflation numbers all tick up, and they are completely fucked.

>>54777149
As long as it isn't a higher peak on inflation they could ignore it and lose all credibility to prop the equities.

>>54777245
Losing all credibility means higher rates means propping up equities doesn't work.

Hmm July I get another pay hike. June is when max panic over the debt falling off the cliff happens. Timing working in my favor?. Who knows. Just that another 401k contribution hike is also effective in July to. (also my pension gets hiked).

>>54777245
3.6 was the predicted terminal rate a year ago, until it wasn't. Laughed about the last dot plot with the 6 position, not laughing anymore.

"Only" 700 on a 1500 position is still a lot, and its just a 3x leveraged etf. Most of the time its not good to keep adding to a losing position and better to a eat a smaller lose then risking your entire balance.

I recently spent $13 on a new keyboard for it off of eBay because a bunch of keys stopped working a lot. The CPU started getting noisy a few months ago, and any time some action starts up on Robinhood it starts whirring so I know to check and see WTF.

>>54777764

Yes
I just need to keep the line moving at all times and if I see a wave I want to surf I jump in and maybe get 2% and feel fortunate.

>>54777986
You are the $9 buyer I see. Might stay away from high cap stocks with your change and try to uniroincally ride shitcoin waves - you will lose a few dollar here and there but when you get it those $9 can quick become $90

>>54778115
No, $10. I originally bought $1 and decided to up it $9 so I could see the movements with greater granularity than 10%. What I'm doing is watching these $10 seeds so that any fluctuations register in easily "feelable" degrees based on the meter of 10, and when I see one of them hit a dip I like I will pour more into it, sell the next rip, then buy/start another fresh $10 on it. It's essentially a watchlist that's actually got a little skin in it, but that skin is minimal so there is no stress at all, it's just a tool for helping me determine when I want to try surfing a wave. I was going to get KOLD too but it only allowed for full shares during after hours. I was also going to get DE because I love the stock, having watched my son's share of it in a stocks program he's in, in which I did the picking for him. I have watched his 5 stocks daily since Feb 2021.

>>54778115

I am indeed very interested in what you have to say about those shitcoins, but I know nothing about any of them, which ones I should be watching and such. I have only ever bought BTC a few times.
