drk posted:The main argument for the price going up is that is was at higher price points earlier this year? Student Loan debt moratorium ends soon, too. I think their appeal is to the millennial/gen-z crowd interested in passive investing and not being a Robinhood idiot. That said, this is a WSB play partially because Palihapitiya PIPEd it so your SPAC concerns probably aren't completely unwarranted.

This is my subjective take on it; it's not your parents' bank, they are focusing mobile-first (not even websites / desktops / laptops, but all app-based, like a ton of the rest of the world where phones are the only compute devices most people have). I'm not expecting it to get back up to $25, but even getting back to $20 would get me back to even + a small profit since I've averaged down cost basis. Or it'll drop to $10 and lol me, I'll never learn to not touch Chamath PIPE poop.

Average Bear posted:I'm not actually but you can do that with margin and getting assigned on unsecured options you wrote. Your margin is very likely to force you to liquidate before that, so you couldn't recover. I use margin and short options all the time. I haven't blown a port up to the point of getting a liquidation warning, notice, or forced, but I've watched some positions balloon and watched other people not manage their margin well by loading it and getting margin called. Doesn't look like fun. Just at 100% down not 100% margin usage I'm pretty sure I'd get forced liquidated at open no hope to recover. At 100% margin usage I expect a phone call and being told to fix my poo poo in the next few days by closing some positions. (actually closing everything would leave you with most of your money assuming it wasn't mostly GME calls that are completely dead).

Another way to do it is to exploit Robinhood's old infinite money cheat and use $50,000 of their money using only $2,000 of your own.

Yeah when you incorporate you say "we have N shares, each share is worth X, so the company is with N * Y" even private corporations are regulated by the secretary of state that they're incorporated in, it's not some wild west thing that's a black box. You can follow the legal zoom s Corp wizard all the way to the very end without putting in a credit card, only takes about 5 minutes, very informative

shame on an IGA posted:so what, covid is just a sideshow to the potential of RNA vaccine technology Yep we are a decade (or less, maybe) away from an all in one mRNA shot that you take annually. Walter Reed military hospital already has a proof of concept of a 24 in one vaccine under initial trials It won't cure the common cold but it'll reduce your symptoms by 60-90% for 70% of the population. The other 30% just have lovely immune systems Pretty cool but covid shots already only cost $4 each. Given that everyone will have mRNA tech in two years that just means $4 billion in ARR which isn't terrible but for a pharma company, also not a lot either mRNA is seriously cool game changing tech, but it's about as complex as a high school science project, economic moat for mRNA is really in the legal/FDA approval pipeline, not the science side.

Is there a good reason outside of systematic underfunding and reasonable scientific caution for the FDA's seemingly glacial pace for testing and approval during the pandemic? If that could get cleaned up via capital investment it'd be nice to get a head start on the next plague.

11 months start to finish for totally untested technology like mRNA vaccines, safely rolled out to 200+ Americans is pretty loving fast IMO Usually politicians like Trump pick ridiculous project names like "enduring freedom" etc but in the case of "project warp speed" it was well deserved. He got a bunch of help from Gates and other think tanks We ought to already have an omicron vaccine, but I think it's a combination of "we don't want the public complaining about more vaccines" but more largely the fact that the Biden administration has senile old man in charge, and the VP is a cop incapable of critical thinking skills not involved with getting elected, with absolutely no background in public health. I voted for the B/H ticket, full disclosure My guess is we'll see omicron vaccine rolled out in March to the boomers and boomer+, and future vaccines will come out on a 3 month timetable

Well the FDA has had a pediatric (2-18) years of age COVID vaccine submitted for EUA since early November, the WHO had/has given it emergency use auth. So far no peep from the FDA that I've found in news sources. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-...2-18-Years.html Maybe it's poo poo? Maybe they don't like some actual scientific reason for something to do with the study? Maybe they haven't been lobbied enough by a company from India? cirus posted:Almost half of the FDA's budget comes from user fees negotiated with the companies seeking approval.
