Ugh, I kind of wanted to buy in like 3 days ago, but expected it to drop some more. Now it looks to be rising again. Damned if you don't, damned if you'd do.

Bitcoin and crypto is so volatile and retarded. Shorting, or even holding any crypto is basically like putting money on roulette. Better chance of getting your money out of a casino too lol

I was doing some research on companies I actually work with, and I can confidentially say both Johnson Controls $JCI and Alexander Baldwin $ALEX are not good. FYI

What about the stock $ALGN? PROS - beat financials last few years - increasing net profits over last few years - growing market (boomers getting older) - lots of cash not much debt - just starting distribution in China and Europe - 1 million teens use them, assume lots of growth there too CONS - PE ratio is 81 pretty high already - I’ve never used this product before, don’t know much about it - lots of institutional investment already in it Thoughts?

What price should I love GE enough to buy some? If they break up will I then own a bunch of stocks to love? They have cash flow to pay dividends right? (Assuming the reinsurance doesn't keep bilking it all away)

WTF is Kodak doing?! I’ll post the current positions this afternoon when I get back to a computer but we need to figure out what to do with this short. We are also up a nice amount (~5%) on AMD, may not be a bad time to cash that one out.

(Assuming the reinsurance doesn't keep bilking it all away) Idk this price seems good. I don't see it dropping below 10 but who knows. I also don't see it hitting 30 any time soon. Seems like a decent investment with those caveats in mind.

I wouldn't touch GE. They may seem just like a motors, appliances and light bulb company, but their financial services arm has hosed them royally ever since the crash of 2008. they are also losing a ton of talented people. source: i know someone that worked for them for years and just quit goons, any thoughts on ALGN??? No one responded earlier. seems like a good stock. What is PANW by the way... what do they do? Also seems like a good one also why is everyone bullish on AMD... is it just like "crypto is cool" or what

Rocks posted:I don’t understand TQQQ, what kind of sorcery is going on in their ETF and how do they achieve 3x Nasdaq It is basically trivial to do with futures contracts - you can buy $132k worth of nasdaq futures and only put up about $4000 in margin. Then they just rebalance every day to keep the 3x ratio correct and adjust the margin they have in the account as necessary based on performance.

Implications for anyone? https://twitter.com/CNBC/status/955558494224121856 Maaaybe some goons with FSLR? Edit: This one isn't paywalled Article: First Solar shares jump 8% after White House OKs tariffs on solar-panel imports quote:Shares of First Solar Inc. FSLR, +3.84% jumped 8% late Monday after news that President Donald Trump has approved trade protections on imported solar panels and modules as well as imported washing machines for home use. The solar tariffs are approved for the next four years, with a 30% tariff on the first year diminishing to 15% by year four. Accretionist fucked around with this message at 23:08 on Jan 22, 2018 |

Guess who had a meme about forgetting to buy NFLX options ahead of earnings, then owned NFLX underlying for a while but forgot he doesn't currently own it, and despite wanting to get back into options trading forgot to buy options again ahead of earnings? That's right, a loving moron.

vaginal facsimile posted:Idk this price seems good. I don't see it dropping below 10 but who knows. I also don't see it hitting 30 any time soon. Seems like a decent investment with those caveats in mind. The market doesn't like uncertainty and I think GE is proving that fact. That being said, I read a few articles on GE today. While the financial press tends to be useless, it was interesting to note that the vast majority of what was written about GE's past stock performance, analyst downgrades, and speculation about doomsday breakup scenarios. Little was written on why GE's fundamental underlying problems. GE has underlying problems, but it has also lost half of its value in the last year. The "narrative" frenzy has currently taken hold, and if you are looking for a value investment with a longer term time frame, it might be a decent choice. However I would recommend waiting until after earnings; the market is likely to thrash them regardless of what is said. Fundamentally, GE's forward PE is less than the broader market. That's also based on some pretty lovely forward earnings that equates to roughly 60-70% of FY2016. Unless you think the company's operations are going to collapse I wouldn't get too carried away.

Josh Lyman posted:That's gotta be only within Ameritrade's customer base though, right? After hours trading on the exchanges only gets you to 4am-8pm. Depends on which market those trades are routed to, and that depends on the specific security being traded and who TD uses to route the trades. The article didn't give many specifics but TD has that info on their site. While it would definitely be convenient for someone with a schedule like mine, monetarily it likely won't be advantageous for US consumers compared to trading during normal market hours. I would imagine you'd want to treat it the same way as trading Forex majors. Lower volume, higher volatility.
