We have a big ole' 36" gas stove without any real proper venting (Microwave above). And a gas fireplace to boot.

Are we going to die?
 
Bought some Amazon today to flip sometime next week before earnings. Betting on a nice run up before their report next Thursday.
 
BBBY is in play. A merger/acquisition could be announced as early as tonight after the market closes.
Is plunging over 20+% in the last hour after reminding everyone they don't have enough money to pay off debts, got a default notice from Chase, and once again pretty much told everyone they'll be filing for bankruptcy.
You have to look deeper. They are not going bankrupt. But according to the media, this one is a goner...LMAO. Stock investing never has been easier than it is today. Just do the opposite of the corrupt financial media and win at every turn. BTW, it would have been insider trading to pay off the RSUs and RSAs yesterday for unvested stock if this stock was actually going bankrupt. Nor would BBBY have made their 2034 and 2044 coupon payments 2 days ahead of schedule if bankruptcy was on the table.

Easy money.

Other than that Mrs Lincoln how was the play?

Maybe he never got the memo that his boy dumped his BBBY for a huge profit months ago with the hedge fund rich kid. No more frogs with ice cream.

ETA - Honestly, I do wonder how big a bag he’s actually holding onto here. It’s beyond joking.

I like how the financial news media is corrupt for repeating the company’s own filings verbatim.

I like how today was an easy day to invest in a stock that literally went down all day.

I’d love to see a remake of Julia Roberts and Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory. It would be investing, Reddit and Facebook groups. Not as good a movie. It’s truly amazing that the chem trails whackos are now stock investors. David Koresh and Jim Jones would be stock pumpers.
 
Seems a lot of the performance of the indexes is being driven by the epic rebound in TSLA. Congrats to the guys who got into that swing trade.
 
I blew out my QS stake, down 57%. My conviction had flagged, and you need conviction to own anything right now. And with FLGT, I already have something in a deep hole that has a better chance of getting back to the surface. Might put that stump of capital into GOLD, we'll see.
 
Is Powell going to toss water on this tomorrow?
Absolutely. The man is allergic to saying anything that could positively affect the markets. He’s doing his best to combat inflation through raising rates to destroy demand. If he sounds remotely positive and the market bounces—a bear market rally just creates more ”net worth”, allows people to spend more—which effectively increases demand. That’s the crappy part of this whole thing. He claims to be “data driven”—but in this case—he’s not. He’s basically forced to sound “meh”, and negative regardless of what the data shows.

Bright Green Shares Rise 84% on Plans to Raise $500M EB-5 Investment​

11:13 am ET February 1, 2023 (Dow Jones) Print

By Chris Wack

Bright Green Corp. shares were up 84% to 96 cents after the company said it plans to raise $500 million under the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' EB-5 capital program.

Shares hit their 52-week low of 35 cents on Dec. 28 and are up 31% over the past three months. The stock made its trading debut on May 17 last year.

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' EB-5 Program allows eligible investors, their spouses and unmarried children under 21 years of age to apply for a permanent residence visa if they make an investment in a U.S. commercial enterprise which creates or preserves a minimum of 10 permanent full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers.

The New Mexico cannabis company said it expects to use the capital raised from the EB-5 program to generate more than 7,100 jobs across the U.S., develop production and drug manufacturing facilities in New Mexico, and support drug research, development and FDA clinical trials.

Bright Green plans to issue common stock through private placements under the EB-5 program, at a price of $39.99 per share.

Edit: More info from the Barron's link - sounds like an opportunity for people with means to essentially purchase a green card?

It really is. I agree with the take that Powell will keep saying the same stuff. Jobs market still looks good and they seem to hate that. o_O

Yup, such a weird thing in that their whole goal is really to put a few million more people out of work, and they won't stop until they've done so.

Capitalism doesn't work without recessions and we used policy to skip the last one so we're way overdue for a big one. The system falls apart without them. Everything just keeps getting more expensive for worse products/experiences all while our money becomes worth less.
