Gyges posted:Regardless the price is still bouncing around from today's announcement, so if you want just put in a buy order in the 20s. I thought about doing this, but there's always a risk Biden goes "Lol I'm in" when I'm not at a computer to cancel those orders.

Biden's not announcing at 5 O'clock on a Monday. They most we'll get before tomorrow is more speculation/anonymous sources.

gently caress. How did I not know there was a Democratic drop out market? Webb is considering going independent if you didn't hear yet. Because the debate was rigged against him, you see. Edit: Why are O'Malley and Biden going up too while Chafee falls like a rock?

And the Washington Post just published and then quickly retracted their prewritten article about Biden officially running. Never address the question of will you or won't you run in any way, Joe. Everyone tripping all over themselves to scoop your announcement is too beautiful to stop. Edit: Biden getting the Democratic nomination Now down in the 60s. Run or not, there's no way in hell that's not jumping back up to the 90s within a week. Gyges has issued a correction as of 01:55 on Oct 20, 2015 |

PredictIt Rules posted:The first official Democratic presidential candidate to publicly announce the suspension or termination of his or her candidacy or of his or her active campaigning for President or the Democratic nomination for President in the 2016 election shall be the individual identified in the question. Qualifying announcements may be made verbally or in writing by the candidate, the candidate’s campaign committee, or an authorized representative of such committee. Such announcement need not be accompanied by filing of a termination report or any other documents with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). My reading of the rules is that if Webb drops out as a Democrat but launches an independent campaign then this doesn't count as a drop out. Does anyone else have a different reading?

Does anyone else have a different reading? My interpretation of the rules is that anyone who ends their candidacy for the Presidency or the Democratic nomination (which seems to be Webb's current idea) would be considered a drop out by the standards of the market. EDIT: Beaten.

Really wish I didn't have a bunch of shares over 50 that I didn't get sold off yet. That's way more sub 30 shares I could have bought. Hoping the market bounces up high enough after Biden doesn't announce in the next day or so to get rid of them and buy up on the next low.

If you have the money available I'd buy now and wait for the cashout from all of them. It's pretty iffy whether the market will deflate AND reinflate again after this. I think it's the last hurrah.

You guys are a lot more hard core. I have 97 shares now, so no matter what happens I'm not wiped out. I hope he never announces. It's fun playing the swings. My cost basis has been coming down all day. It's now 25.  I'm going to buy more on the next dip and sell some on the next spike.

Stereotype posted:I don't want Biden to run, I want NK to detonate a nuclear device, I want trump to be president. There's your problem. I only bet on things that I know won't (or will) happen, but that I want to come true. That way, either the universe bends itself to my will or I make some beer money.
