>MoviePass now forcing users to choose between two movies a day
The reality is that if you become sufficiently educated and skilled at a lot of things you can get really rich. Real estate definitely is one way of doing it, but it's not really any easier than trading in the markets. You still need to work your ass off and you can ultimately fail all the same. At the end of the day we all go to zero, just find something you can do for 8+ hours a day, that rewards you directly based on the merit of your skill and dedication, something that is scalable, and something that doesn't make you want to jump off a bridge and check out early. Wage jobs are only to raise risk capital.

South Africa is on it's way to being a failed state but the farthest out options are Jan 18, 2019. Is this soon enough for shit to start popping off, or should I hold out?
just filter the ones you dont like desu i cant even imagine the autism it would take to have some tripfags posts effect me or the way i enjoy this bread. its Jow Forums, who the fuck cares?
personally find the incessant whining/spamming about tripfags to be far more childish and detrimental than anything most trips ever did. sans when everyone went full reddit and started faceposting. and even then it was a weekend bread and fucking irrelevant anyways. not like it was derailing anything important
im going to be rolling puts on them for the rest of forever desu just dont get too overboard as the options market is quite illiquid. if it keeps crashing tho, someone will buy em
Welp that does it /smg/ Almost out of gains to play with and don't feel like losing real money, so I think I'm dipping out. Thanks for all the tips and memes, I'm gonna go pay some Jew to invest for me. Maybe I'll get back in when I'm older and my money has less time value.

Aiden Gonzalez
funny because the lions share of the times i see anyone hungry for attention its the boomer spammers whining, looking for people to agree that "/smg/ a ded cuz trips.... plz resbond"
even better is the one frogposter guy who prides himself in making gud calls (which he generally does desu) but is constantly looking for validation on how great he is, yet maintains that trips are attention faggots and that hes great, and TOTALLY doesnt seek attention and validation from everyone
makes me wanna save all his pics and just start giving out fuck-awful advice until hes forced to trip. but i honestly dont give enough of a shit
the thing to be wary of is the divs it has. that can fuck around options prices sometimes. pay attention to when the div days are
Ayden Green
All the puts are up like 60% right now, I'd probably wait until there's a bit of an upswing and then buy on that.

Oh hey stockcucks, didn't see you there. How did your shares of Shekelberg Industries do today? Damn, looks like they lost 5% after they missed their earnings for the second quarter in a row. I guess that means they're going to have to cut that dividend, but 1% wasn't much anyway. Maybe for yield you could buy some of their 30-year junk bonds at 6%. There's no way they'll default on those, even though their CEO, Howard Goldstein, did that at his last company.
Oh, me? I'm not buying anything too exciting these days. Just picking up muni bond funds at 3.5% yield, triple tax free. It's a nice safe place to store my money that doesn't get taxed, since I'm already in the highest bracket. Maybe the next time the market crashes, I'll roll it over into stocks, but for now I'm happy to be in bonds while the market goes sideways.
Oh no, Trump just tweeted that he's putting 100% tariffs on hentai and dragon dildos. Guess the market's in for another bad day on Monday, eh? Hahaha! Well good luck, stockcuck.
the main problem imo is that hardly anyone is dumb enough to be selling puts on south africa, so there arent many of them. would be pretty funny though if all of /smg/ buys up all the available puts and whatever hedgie who wrote em just gets totally fucking raped to death by infinite loss. if we bought all of em, then he wouldnt even be able to cover
Yeah, you should not get started with options. You should start with regular stocks.
Adam Russell
>tfw i stopped buying stocks pretty much entirely in feb, and flipped to bonds and commodities, but STILL am not anywhere CLOSE to this much of an absolute faggot about it congratulations user. we know how muni/non-muni bonds work too. good pasta tho
btw whats your take on shorter term treasury yield spikes in the near term? wouldnt mind picking up some more bonds for longterm holding at a higher yield. i agree that stocks are beyond fucked rn
lol i'm just having some fun. i own stock too, of course (and REITs), though i'm not putting new money into it.
>btw whats your take on shorter term treasury yield spikes in the near term? wouldnt mind picking up some more bonds for longterm holding at a higher yield. i agree that stocks are beyond fucked rn
i was expecting more interest rate hikes than we've had, and if i had to put a bet on it, i would take the "under" on whatever line the market expects on yield for bills and notes. people are clearly trigger happy about a rush to safety. trump is too unpredictable for traders and everyone's waiting for the cookie to crumble on trade war shit. the irony of the US's international position is that when we fuck up people's shit they respond by buying our debt and currency. it's an amazing luxury, and i don't think people fully appreciate what it means to have the world swing by your nuts the way it does right now.
anyway, i'm not enthused about 30-year yields at 3.1%~. i think the short-term debt is the place to be, because i think the likelihood of a recession will crush govt debt yields for anything 5 years or shorter, and i think the economy's difficulties will put a ceiling on rate hikes. i think the US has a debt and demographic problem that will raise long-term yields. we had a long summer of growth and i think it's almost over. as you said, stocks are fucked. total market cap to gdp is something like 130%. employment's full. uncage ze bear. btw, i'd avoid corporate debt at all costs right now. there's a fuckton of it, the economy's due for correction, you figure it out. corporate junk funds at 5.5% is an absolute sucker's yield, someone is going to get slaughtered.

intradasting about the short term debts. im a newbie w bonds, so i originally thought longterm debt would be the place due to historical data. but the more i research, and the more keynes faggot catchphrase keeps echoing in my head ("in the long run were all fucking fucked"), the more ive been eyeing up notes and bills.
>btw, i'd avoid corporate debt at all costs right now ma nigga. where you been? my whole macro bear call has been based on junk bonds running away from the markets. everyones been lookin at me like i got 3 heads.
such a ridiculous amount of my portfolio is in longterm puts on corporate debt ETFs. i got a thesis on it desu. since dodd frank, there was a stipulation about corporate debt ETFs being MMd by large banks. namely, they arent allowed to do it anymore. but someone had to, so hedgefags stepped in. but hedgies arent required to provide bids, and definitely fucking wont if (when) those roll over hard. so in the event the assets themselves shit the bed, were gonna see these things gap down to peoples stops/lowball orders. the sudden spike in vol on longterm puts will be YUGE in terms of vega alone.

Mason Scott
i wasn't kidding i mean if you want to put money in these leveraged ETFs then good luck. they scare me, but there's clearly money to be made for bold investors like yourselves. if you were in EDZ from the beginning of the year, or at least the tariffs, you made very serious coin. obviously if i'm writing about muni bond funds i'm not the kind of guy to buy SQQQ, but i'm not rooting against you.
as a rule i don't like funds with huge expense ratios but i understand these are mostly bets on a very short timescale. or are you HODLing? like, what is your position and when do you plan to sell.

so whats /smg/'s pick for the best index? SP500, The Dow Jones, or Nasdaq ?
The dow jones seems to be strangely correlated to the price of Unobtanium. Could there be a relationship between both? Is money flowing from Unobtanium to the dow jones and viceversa?
Mason Bailey
holy shit comfy remember how we were talking yesterday about big guys memeing on us? i was flipping through the old bread for somethin and look what i just noticed
look at what mooned again for no fucking reason AH FUG the fire fucking rises
fucking cuck everyone knows the only correct answer is the chad 2000 index
sold some of my GALT and bought into PACB, which is working out for me i bought it at 4.18 i'm not worried about PHO, it's just down because of natural market fluctuations still waiting for GALT to spike, there's news coming up next week and a potential buyout on the horizon
the official smg index is of course the DOW Nothing is more superior than the DOW It has KO, Visa, and BAC The Dow will reach 1 million like buffet says

there isn't a whole lot of places for money to hide right now, IMO. makes short-term debt very appealing to me.

question: why buy puts on corporate debt vs. other bets you could take on an economic downturn? is it because of the overabundance of corporate debt that I talked about?
because corporate bonds, especially corporate junk, basically track equities.
i'm not asking because this is a quiz, i am just not an options guy and prefer to keep it simple. what's the difference between puts on corporate junk vs. just buying SQQQ or some other nonsense. you like the bet, but not enough to disregard the option premium?
Cooper Robinson
WTF. RKG and I talked about it last night and this morning to of all the (((coincidences))) that have happened over the last few months Spooky. We need to find a really really small, stable stock, meme it and look to the whales for an answer that they are there for a pump
