Does BnB have a boat? He may have to sail over there.

Also just reading that PYRGF could possible be used to process lower quality quartz if there is an issue.

I already positioned into O and GLPI a while ago as well as intermediate Corp Bonds, High Yield Corporates and emerging market debt in anticipation of rate cuts. Also Small Caps on the stock side. And I gave the bat signal here last October 2023 on utilities when the sector dropped to a 5 year low.

Anywhere you see that’s still a decent value at this time compared to others?

Nothing is screaming at me. Literally nothing. I am doing rebalancing already and planning 2025.
I am taking some profits for those that are not 100% stocks and reallocating to more fixed income. For example if the target allocation is 70/30 and the portfolio is currently sitting at 85/15 we are taking that 15% overweight and selling it and buying more on the fixed income side.
Just doing some risk adjustment type stuff.
If we get a decent sized correction then we can shift heavier into equites again.
For 100% equity portfolio...just trimming some profits here and there and selling any dogs or stagnant stocks I don't really see doing much over the next 12-18 and especially if they don't pay dividends.
But generally speaking...staying long as always and not doing anything drastic.

Bought 100 shares at $230 then immediately sold a November $260 call for $800 to lower the cost basis a bit more.

Would you consider now to be an attractive entry point ... or a catching a falling knife?
I bought a week ago at $230 (posted it upthread). Part of the reason I did is because the premiums on November calls mitigate the risk. Honestly, I did not do a bunch of due diligence--it is a well known name that makes a ton of money. The fact that their profits will be dinged because of changes to Medicare do not change that fact all that much. Not saying you should tail me, but this is a stock that is trading at 50% off its highs from just a year ago, pays a modest dividend, and will reward you immediately with a 4% premium on a covered call which is decently out of the money. I'll take it,.

Huh - so evidently we have an existential crisis in the stock markets. We're running out of ticker symbols thanks to single stock ETFs. Honestly, I never paid attention to that part of the market at all - to the point I really didn't know these issues existed. And checking some of these things have huge volume. I can see having 2x the S&P or TLT, but 2x MSTR? Good grief.
There are evidently a veritable **** ton of degenerate gamblers out there.

Can't find it now, but saw a tweet earlier this week about the ridiculous flows into MSTU (2x MSTR).
I own some MSTR as a levered play on BTC. Leveraging that twice more? A little too much for me!

To achieve those goals, Tesla will have to master two formidable technical challenges: cutting the production cost of electric vehicles, and making them drive themselves without human intervention to a safety level capable of satisfying risk-averse regulators. Musk didn’t give his guests at the robotaxi event evidence of progress on either score.
Lovely paragraph from the WSJ.

BTC up about 4%. MSTR up 14%. MSTU up 28% (it's working!).

Crazy how the thing is supposed to be "fully self-driving" without a steering wheel or pedals (in all weather conditions), yet is under $30,000, and also can only recharge via in-road conductive chargers that must be placed under the asphalt of all the streets and highways in the entire United States, but is going to come out in 2 years.

Hopefully this is not political, but the other crazy thing here is that Musk has said autonomous driving is the primary driver of future profits for Tesla. Yet the political candidate he VERY openly supports, probably more publicly and enthusiastically than any CEO has supported a candidate in history, just said in one of his rallies that he would make autonomous vehicles illegal if he is elected.

I laughed when I read this and saw what MSTR is doing today.
The 1 to 2 inches of ground clearance seems… problematic to say the least.

Make no mistake, I'm all in on MSTR and always have been, I just dont trust the funds leveraging shares of MSTR.
