No one wants to hear this one.....but I added some more BA here to my own account (just a little more). My 12 month price target is now in the $260 range. When the Max get’s re-certified some time this summer this baby will pop hard. I see more tailwinds for BA then headwinds.

IDK, I see the 737 Max as being one of the biggest busts in modern aviation history.

I like all the Options Actions and Fast Money people.  Karen Finerman can call me any time.  Guy Amari and Tim Seymour look like they'd be cool guys to have a beer and talk shop with.

I don't watch CNBC during the day, but I do watch pre-market.   I went to high school with Mike Santoli, super nice guy.  Can't stand Joe Kernan at all.

CYDY webinar was mostly a waste of time.  They did say they might be close to being listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ and that status might be updated in a week or two.

 
Good news from CYDY webinar is that uplisting is in the works. They believe they meet the requirements and are in process of arranging the financial requirements with an agreement with an investment bank. Results from trials are good. Expect enrollment to be completed by end of May.

Patterson article submitted and awaiting approval, need to address any comments or need for experimental data.

Only thing of concern was that NP did not flat out reject further dilution to fund trials but said it was an option among others to be considered.

Also Patterson again commented about the possibility of the virus in the nation's blood supply and the need to determine/test if present and  if it was infectious.

Again like before stock takes a hit during the webinar.

Really hoping for a solid everything gets sold EOD. Open order on GOLD could finally get filled at $25. 

ETA: that might not be good though since I'm already heavily concentrated here :bag:

Yeah, we stopped watching CNBC in our office several years ago.  Best thing we ever did.  Now the TV goes on for sports only.....I miss sports.  I do not miss CNBC.  I do miss Amanda Drury. :wub:

CNBC has a few hotties.

He looks OK, I guess.  I think it's more because I'm locked up in my house and confused.  I'm sure it will pass once we reopen.

There is probably also something to be said about the Fast Money folks that they are working during the day when the market opens. I'm always amazed at the 'traders' who can just take an hour in the middle of the day to sit on TV. I assume a lot of it is just for TV but they act like long-term investors but make trades daily. Guess that is the nature of the show. Need something to sell to viewers. 

 
111% an hour ago. 

From May 11th: Put/Call ratio 73%. Long day ahead but haven't had any readings in the 70s since February.

Shorts piling in again.

I agree.  They need to stop doing these things  Completely ineffective when you don't have anything material to announce. 

Between Nader and Jack Marks (the host), it was amateur hour.

Remind me why you like GOLD over other option? I sold my IAU, still have some FSAGX......what's the method of picking the best gold fund/etf? All input welcome. 

 
Not necessarily a stock question, but what are your guys thoughts on opening up a Roth IRA right now? I’m about 15 years from retirement, my wife and I both have 401k/ thrift savings plans and we’re thinking of opening a Roth. Is it too dangerous of a time to do so?

You can open the Roth (IRA?) anytime you want.  You can make your 2019/2020 contribution and leave it in cash if you wish.

Nope.  It’s never a bad time to save more.  Given your time frame there is no reason to avoid investing in the stock market however you can chose to allocate the Roth however you see fit.

Go ahead and open it and if you have the available money fund it. You don't necessarily have to buy stock right away but it'd be nice to act as soon as you want to. Your risk tolerance is your own, but a 15 year time horizon you can probably start taking some shots now.

Thanks. The advisor we are speaking with is advising a 80/20 setup based on our interview that we had with him. Sound about right?

 
Todem, question.

If BLMN were to drop a bit more, say 5-10% today or tomorrow, would you buy more, hold, or sell any?

Just wondering a bit about your general philosophy, and maybe even specifically about BLMN and your thoughts there.

Is your TSP contribution in a Roth?  I have mine split Roth/Trad since the Govt. match has to be traditional.  

 
Ideas to improve Cytodyn's PR:

1. Stand outside Fauci's house with a boombox overhead like John Cusack in Say Anything

2. Hire Matthew McConaughey to do a tv commercial.  If he isn't available, then Stephen Dorff.

3. Donate a million dollars to Trump's re-election campaign

4. Have sex with Mike Pence then blackmail him

5. Start a rumor that Obama hates leronlimab

It does based on your time frame.  The other consideration is your tolerance to risk.  So if you can handle the “down” swings you should be rewarded in the long term.

Is that Military TSP?  I was out before that one started. 

I totally agree with everyone else on opening a Roth.  Everyone should have one.  Definitely get the most match you can on TSP and any other employer free money, but anything above the match % I'd shift to the Roth.  If you hit the max Roth yearly contribution , then shift over to upping your TSP/401k/Traditional contributions.

It's USPS.  My wife gets zero match through her 401k.

GOLD is a miner, a very well run one. When owning a gold etf, you're taxed on a collectible. If you're a gold bull, the miners have more upside and lower tax implications.

GOLD has substantially slashed their debt over the last several years (while gold was trucking along sideways at levels far below 1700, nonetheless). The other miner to be considered is NEM, imo.

One can do a search on put options with high Implied Volatility. It's a good place to start to find puts that you might want to sell at a rich premium. The times, though, are such that premiums are very elevated due to the volatility in the markets. In "normal" times,  you would almost never get as much premium as what we're talking about here.

Shush ... your giving away trade secrets.

Now how can I expect to charge for my services?

And the guy in the bottom that kept saying "anecdotes don't save lives"
or whatever. Very tiresome

I have a very solid sales and marketing background, I could help this company, substantially! Send them my way.

I have done zero hw on them (it's all on Chet from the internet, thanks bud!), but I was in the thread and saw a post about a webinar today. When I clicked on their IR section, I saw the link to Wall St Super Stocks and was already disappointed. Then I heard Boris the Super Stock Narrator and then NP get into his story about the same woman (for the 7th time) again. I should've sold right then and there and bought back for 10% lower. I shut it off right away. If they were smart, they would have Patterson out there discussing his opinion on the mechanism of the drug and nothing else (excluding results). This #### like today needs to stop! 

Seriously, whoever is in charge of their PR/Marketing/etc... It's a disaster!

I put half my TSP into the Roth option (had been 100% Roth until this year). I expect my tax rate at retirement to be higher than today, but also want some tax benefits this year. 

I usually have reasonable pet peeves, but calling a Roth IRA "a Roth" is among my unreasonable irritations.
