Pffft, look at this guy playing it safe. Now is the time to buy even more! Just be sure to sell it before it goes down again. Easy peasy.

I noticed this morning that all of the top gainers were listed at those obscene percentages. It reminds me of a few months ago when Google Finance claimed something like Burger King was increasing at 20% per day for several weeks.

You're never going to buy at the bottom or sell at the peak. That was still a good gain on a risky play. :homebrew:

Jesus Christ, ONCS went from 1.25 yesterday to ~2.15 currently, apparently mostly based on the new CEO that got hired. And they're going to reveal some medical trial data on Saturday, that's supposedly very promising. I'm so goddamn conflicted, because I went in at 1.32 a couple of days ago.

Equity can mean a lot of things, including responsibility for bills that don't get paid when the poo poo explodes. We have no idea what type of equity you are talking about or how big your startup is. This tread is mostly about publicly traded equity so we probably don't know anything about it anyway but that doesn't stop me from recommending and not recommending things.

7 tax brackets in the Senate tax bill and full elimination of state and local tax deduction. Doubles the estate tax exemption. Literal direct transfer of wealth from middle class to 1%. Corporate tax cut delayed at least a year, when they likely won't even hold the house anymore. Total failure. #SAD

The numbers I was seeing showed marginal to no tax reductions to the middle class and more tax reductions to the high-income brackets. It's not a "direct transfer of wealth" from the middle class to the 1%. It's the prevention of the transfer of wealth from the 1% to everyone else. I'm not saying it's necessarily a healthy change to taxation but this visual of the 1% stealing from the middle class is just wrong. They already have the wealth. They're just rigging it so that they pay less in taxes on it than many feel is proper.

We could've bought into ROKU below 20 anytime in the last 2 weeks. Closed at 29.19 today.

I definitely remember looking at this week's earnings reports but I don't remember thinking about ROKU. Too concerned with my NVDA I guess. They just reported blockbuster earnings but no movement AH.

Well maybe you are still looking at the bullshit numbers that don't resemble the actual plan that is starting to take shape? It's a complete disaster. Not only is it a tax *raise* on the middle class, it's a budget wrecking, deficit widening indirect attack on government programs which will lead to cuts (this has been the unofficial Republican strategy for decades now), which of course disproportionately affects the middle and lower classes. So yes, it absolutely is a transfer of wealth.
