VRT getting thumped again

Stay on target……

Back in SOXL at 18.38

Sell order set at 20.22

I sold at 18.35 in AH. I don’t like this auto tariff news. Will look to get back in lower.

I had an open order that filled this morning @16.88. Not sure how I feel about it now - I set it last week when I sold at 21.

ETA: actually sold and set buy order on Monday this week - seems way longer.

Yeah, another fun SOXL ride.

I adding more. Again ...

16.04 is tempting, but gonna wait until next week and revisit. Want to see what happens on more tariff rollouts, Liberation Day, etc. If I miss out, oh well, just too much risk right now.

 

[Sleestak]

Fair warning: I just nibbled at a little VOO. The real downturn may now begin.

Where’s Klimtology saying he got back in yesterday?

Bought MSFT. Boring value add (I hope).

 

[pecorino]

Closed two SPY put positions this afternoon, buying GS, QQQ. Not saying we're at a bottom but time to unwind shorts a bit.

MSFT

UPST
VRT - Chasing it down like a couple of weeks ago.
AMZN - Getting back to stupid amounts of this.

Markets will recover on Tuesday when my 401K contributions hit, then tank again for tariff day.

I like most of those but my default has been QQQ to tick off a lot of them in a single shot. Plus I cannot bring myself to buy META even though I know I'm getting some in the Qs.

GameStop Crashes as Short Sellers Swarm after Bitcoin Announcement​

A+

A-
Story Highlights
GameStop stock falls 22% as short sellers pile in following its Bitcoin investment announcement.

GameStop GME +0.45% ▲ stock plunged 22% on March 27, triggering a short sale restriction on the New York Stock Exchange after short volume exploded 234% in one day. That’s nearly 31 million shares sold short—just shy of the chaos seen during the infamous 2021 squeeze. According to TradingView data, it was the second biggest short volume spike in the stock’s recent history.

Surge in GME Stock Shorts Triggers Trading Restrictions​

The SSR rule kicked in automatically once GameStop dropped over 10% from its prior close. It wiped out a 12% bump the stock had picked up after announcing plans to buy Bitcoin. Kevin Malone, CEO of Malone Wealth, said on X, “GameStop traded 50x more shares today than last Thursday. Not statistically possible without naked short-selling.”

Analysts Slam Bitcoin Move as Gimmicky​

Right after announcing the Bitcoin plan, GameStop also revealed a $1.3 billion convertible notes offering. That raised eyebrows. Speaking to Yahoo Finance, Tastylive CEO Tom Sosnoff said, “It feels a little like… I’m going to buy some Bitcoin with our excess cash because we can’t find a company that is going to be accretive.”





As Hans Akamatsu pointed out, this echoes Strategy’s MSTR -9.70% ▼ move in 2021. If Bitcoin or GameStop rips higher, he said, “the trade gets very interesting as we have a squeeze opportunity here.”

Is GameStop a Good Stock to Buy?​

Currently there is only 1 analyst covering GameStop. Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter isn’t sold on GameStop’s strategy—or lack of one. He slapped the stock with a “Moderate Sell” rating and a $10 price target. He warned that while the company’s sitting on about $10 per share in cash, there’s “no clear plan” for using it wisely.

And noting that Google is down 5% today near a 12 month low I add 33% to my position.

The most unsurprising surprise ever - inflation is sticky.

Looking over the inflation report I'm changing my thoughts on rate cuts. I think we get one raise this year (I was at zero cuts).

There was a poster in here that was like all-in on this thing. Were there others as well and is anyone still holding?

Would like to know if that is still the case and if so, it would be interesting to hear their side of it. Been awhile.

I believe they are still waiting for the shorts to cover.

Tailing you guys on LGVW - looks very promising - in at 15.92

Also took positions in:

CHMA @ 4.65 (Pharma play - looks like nice upside - recent FDA approved product, sales started in Sept - flush with around $175MM in cash due to recent offering - predicted annual sales of $300M are thought of by many as too conservative. Several firms have $10+ price targets

OPTN @ 4.57 - similar pharma play to above, but not as juicy looking, but still very promising. Big ENT market

ABUS @ 4.03 - another pharma play - I'm a sucker for these - I know a random internet guy (not from FFA) that is HUGE on this - kind of tailing him - don't understand much on this one, kind of random gambling

CLDR @ 12.72 - up almost 10% on great earnings and sales - announced a big stock buyback plan - some nice insider buys - bright future tech company - this is the kind of stock you look at in mi-2021 and say "of course it's over $20, why didn't I dump my whole 401K into this one"

Crazy that I’m replying to a 5 year old message from myself, but search function only found this post. I know there’s an FBG out there who is HUGE into Arbutus. Symbol ABUS. Guys, it’s awakening. This is the money maker we’ve all dreamed of. They’ve fired and hired new CEO, CFO. Their MRNA technology was wrongfully stolen and they’re suing Moderna and Pfizer. But even if nothing transpires there, they have so much promising development in the pipeline- stage 2 and soon to be 3 - of course, do your own research. I’ve been in and out of this one quite a bit over the years. Been watching this ticker a lot recently for a reentry. Look at what happened today - of the 100+ stocks I watch, this one was up the most, at just 7%, on a brutally red day. This is going to be a wealth creation machine. I’m going in HEAVY come Monday morning. I might even generate LHUCKS wealth with this one.

At least on Yahoo finance two of those don't exist and ABUS is below your 5 year old price. These small pharma plays are so speculative.

Fun chart here. Anything on your shopping list?

Gotta admit having a big Cava craving on Saturday and the place was absolutely packed so was already wondering about their financials.

MRNA trading sub $28 before the open as vaccine stocks take a hit because of a recent resignation under Kennedy. I already own a ton but will buy more MRNA on this 10% drop.

 

[beef]

Putting some house projects on hold to continue to buy this t crash.

 

[BassNBrew]

I tried dumpster diving on VRT this morning and it looks like my $69.51 was a near miss.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Weeeeeeeeee. Just picked up some MSFT, AMZN and META at the open.

 

[The_Man]

How long until word comes out today that we're going to hold off on some of the tariffs? Probably long enough for certain people to put in their buy orders before the announcement bounces prices back up

 

[ghostguy123]

I put in some limit orders for today. All have hit. Not sure if that's good or bad

 

[Capella]

The tarrifs will continue until morale improves.

I'm buying for that reason, but ready to hold 4 years too if need be.

lol, mine did too and now I'm debating transferring more money.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Feels like we’re getting close to an at least temporary blood in the streets moment. Fear and greed touched 16 and VIX up over 10% two days in a row.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Amazon and Google back to their 2021 highs. Microsoft getting close.

 

[Dr_Zaius]

Weeeeeeeeee. Just picked up some MSFT, AMZN and META at the open.

Picked up some AMZN and QQQ myself.

 

[stbugs]

Amazon and Google back to their 2021 highs. Microsoft getting close.

Yep. It’s funny to see their reasonable P/E ratios even though we know they are spending like crazy so these profits include massive capital expenditures that won’t always be crazy.

That said, I don’t think we’ve bottomed yet so my cash position is sizable and still there.

I do like CAVA, AXON (I sold at $700, would like to get back in under $500) and several tech stocks.

 

[Todem]

When we look back....it will be known as the "Tariff Tantrum".

 

[Ridgeback]

The tarrifs will continue until morale improves.

I'd love to comment on that but don't need yet another banning. Good times.

Gold $3,115, all time high.

Silver? Ehhhh, not so much.

Gold/Silver ratio at 94.

For the 20th century, the ratio was 47:1. Typical range lately has been 50-70. 94 is pretty damn high.
