And now it's one of the best performing airlines. most of them suck really bad and some of them are probably astroturfed by institutions so that they actually say the opposite of what the institution actually does. analysts' price targets and performance expectations are so often bullshit that i've just started ignoring all of them

Seems like a good brand and they also acquired Top Golf which I think will get bigger from here and I think will come back quicker than some other crowded activities stuff. Maybe they can do other stuff with the technology there, too. They used to be litigious when it comes to IP. Disclaimer: I hate golf and am dumb, so might be totally off here. But I'm in this for a few thousand.

There needs to be a higher barrier to entry on poo poo like derivatives. Most people have no business getting involved in those markets. Even fundamentally they're of extremely questionable utility, honestly. In securities and commodities markets having all these people participating at least provides liquidity. But all this other stuff, it's even more nakedly gambling. On credit. And there's definitely no good reason some rear end in a top hat who doesn't know his way around that stuff should be able to expose himself to that much financial loss simply because he had the ability to download an app. Also derivative markets did 2008, so there's that. I really don't see any reason for them to exist aside from rich assholes who should be in line for the guillotines going "b-b-b-b-but are money..."

But yah, someone has to be on the other side, taking on that risk. The issue comes when uneducated people are like yah I'll loving buy soybeans at 100 next year, woooo. Or like this guy "I'll sell a shitload of soybeans next year for 100 (without having any idea how to grow soybeans myself)" He definitely lied about his options experience btw. I went through etrades thing honestly, they still won't give me the ability to sell naked calls.

I’ve been plugging along for almost a year now, still have almost no idea what I am doing at all, and yet have not lost more money than I can A) afford to spend on the entertainment or 2)a single penny more than I consciously deposited. Buying options isn’t the risky part, it’s selling naked.

What I don't understand is how the brokerage didn't close his positions faster. We made margin calls much faster when inwas working. Granted, we didn't have GME volatility problems, but one of our main jobs was to maintain awareness of client margin. We'd get fired for something like this.

It’s pretty gross how little people are talking about the fact that robinhood just gives everyone a margin account. This little “growth hack” causes all of these other problems, including the issue with collateral and T+2 the other week. I had to pass certain hurdles to get different levels of options cleared with my broker and when I had a bad year they even called me up and asked me if I knew wtf I was doing. If I ended up losing everything they would be able to sleep well and easy knowing they gave me plenty of outs to admit I’m an idiot.

Robinhood gives users a lot of power to get in trouble just by hitting a big "I AGREE" button. Schwab would make you pass an options exam before selling naked calls, probably with a human being on the phone.

Surprisingly Dope posted:What's the reasoning there, more rich people from memestocks? I'll try and keep it short here. Its mostly conjecture, and 'gut feeling' (please note tho: i am a loving idiot). Golf has been losing popularity since 2003, but that decline sort of leveled off around 2018. I think that, while the sport was still in an overall decline, it was beginning to find a new audience. That's partially anecdotal from a lot of friends of mine getting into it the last couple years (I'm pretty young for a goon and definitely not in a high income bracket), but its also based on certain statistics, like the fact that in 2019 golf had its best viewership numbers in the 13-34 demographic since 2009 (also, 2019 was up 75% in this demographic from 2018). I think that there have been a variety of changes over the years in the way golf is broadcasted and marketed that have lead to this shift, (plus Tiger coming back, baby!) and I think within the next decade or so we could have kind of a drastic paradigm shift in who is watching and playing golf. Plus, golf is one of the few sports that is pretty much pandemic proof. Through 2020 this has shown to lead to another major surge in the sports popularity. None of this is specific to Callaway per se, but it is a strong brand in and of itself.

Robinhood should definitely, at minimum, have like half a dozen warnings that you gotta read and a quiz you gotta take and pass before it lets you sell naked calls. Goddamn.

Merrill Edge at least had a few days vetting/application process to even get to mess with covered options. I'm still too stupid to even mess with options but at least they weren't encouraging me to play with up and down arrows that can gently caress you that hard. Jesus.
