/smg/ - Stock Market General

activist Judges and DAs are undermining this country
how much longer will it be tolerated?

Reminder that MSTR is a $20 stock

any predictions on MRVL? I've never bought this stock but people seem to think earnings will do well.

I love how he is blocking tariffs on China for Trump when Biden did the exact same thing during his term with an executive order.

The fact that the open market doesn’t want to pay more than 594 for SPY and failed today can only mean one thing for next week, right?

Instead of going for AMZN or CVX like I'd originally planned, I bought AAPL this morning for the first time ever. SOMEBODY HAD BETTER PUMP THESE BAGS RIGHT FUCKING NOW

it appears as if you are the retard who got shaken out, albeitly

can it be any more obvious to the americans that their judicial branch puts politics above law?

Wait til you see what trump and congress republicans do to reenact the tariffs for good
And wait til you see how the markets react

Did anybody actually sue to stop it under Biden? Courts can only handle what comes before them.

literally if they want the damn tariffs congress could try to pass them. they don’t have to be instant with executive tweets

congress republicans do to reenact the tariffs for good

They won't do shit, because it would require a 2/3rds vote, unless Republicans REALLY want to use the nuclear option to put tariffs back in place (and sign their own political death warrants in midterms).

fucking phrasing you weird ass
Trump's approval rating is pretty damn good right now

fucking shit we’re dumping again

Bullish short term not playing it though. Looks like it either wants to go to 55 or 70

investor.marvell.com/2025-05-19-Marvell-and-NVIDIA-to-Provide-Custom-Solutions-for-Advanced-AI-Infrastructure

Sucks.

tfw if they let NVDA stay above 143 we would have had a 2% day across the indexes

everything is up

WHY ARE WE DUMPING

Nah these trips say we pump

my god.
if taco bell brings back the volcano burrito...

Wed be at spy 400 right now if not for dip slurpers

I’m losing my mind. This market is intense

what dont you like about it

this taco spam is just making me hungry

Nah, look at the chart. Classic institutional theta trap. We might see a decent pump.

Mid day its like the market is fucking closed. Nothing is happening

Guys I'm a 28 yo neet from Türkiye. I recently opened an account for Us markets. I know our shitty stock market pretty well and pretty confident about it but I don't know shit about Us markets. Should I go for etfs or stocks? All those big beautiful Us companies tempting me but I don't know jack shit. I also think about going for bitcoin etfs.
And thoughts about $Amkr ?

praying for a $591 pump

Peri-anon I swear I haven't seen you talk about having done a good trade ever.

This

He bought?

Dump it.

100% ETF's like VTI or SCHD

I don't know what to think about soxl right now. have semis peaked already?

Wh insider here

All day everyone has been redirected from usual duties to come up with a clever response to the taco taunt. Deals are on hold, the situation hotline has been ringing off the hook bit we are all in the board room shouting out phrases. Do with this what you will

I don't understand how to use it.

I saw taco posting on fucking Anon Babble and Anon Babble earlier. They really need to spam their shit less obviously

All Hail The Don

I'd personally wait for it to dip back near single digits again

This is larp but I want to believe we have a WH insider here

I'm very good at giving tips but horrible at following through on them. I was one of the first in /smg/ to start talking about how to take advantage of CRWV's volatility, predicted earnings bumps for LUNR and SNOW, tipped people off about the BAH crash, and several other plays.

Any non theta positive options are literally for donating money to the kikes

I herd we're now in the ze Saki timeline
Where are my bog boobas mahjong players and pantsuless lolis?

who hoa hoa double stacked tacooooooo 49% off

told you its over

Oh, I also struck gold with a perfectly-timed MSTZ play. I was pretty proud of that one.

I'm down 30% on Baillie Gifford funds. Should I hodl or bail out?

Also is Alphabet (GOOG) stock still worth keeping hold of?

Where my DOLE chads at?

Picture for ants.

When does Trump speak? After the bell?

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU

NVDAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

DOLE

I fugged up

SELL
EVERYTHING

SELL
EVERYTHING

dangit should have cut my calls at 1:05 but wanted to profit rather than be below break even. spy is falling with the quickness

youtube.com/watch?v=pwMAauD7nGQ

white house consneeding for now on tariffs

still dumping

"we have other authorities" to get tariffs back

Gazing at my puts like theyre bustyema's tits rn

????? wtf happened now

IT'S FUCKING OVER

You are heavily invested in DOLE, right anon? Right

That new Veo 3 AI is the real deal Google is going to 200 even if it gets sued by EU/Supreme Court and if it gets broken up it will unironically be good for the company so they can all focus on their own segments

what are you fuckwits screaming about? SPY is recovering. NVDA stopped dipping a minute ago. Calm down.

DOLE

Can someone buy my tootsie roll

Any reasoning for this? Still holding part of the postion I got in April

We may ask the Supreme Court on Friday to keep tariffs intact.

may ask

Trump already chickening standing up to the courts. It's all so embarrassing.

vanguard brokerage

have tens of thousands in settlement fund

buy x set limit order for sell; x hits limit order and sells

same day buy Y after X sells; set limit order for Y and it sells

ACCOUNT RESTRICTED FOR FREE RIDING BECAUSE WE ALLOCATED "UNSETTLED FUNDS" FOR SECOND PURCHASE INSTEAD FROM THE TENS OF THOUANDS READY TO USE IN THE SETTLEMENT FUND

Called them and talked to 3 pajeets gibber incoherently about me "overspending" until a white guy picked up and explained what probably happened.
Any non-niggery brokerages you guys prefer? probably missed like 500$ worth of trades today.

Doesn't seem good enough jump. I might sell and go for BlackRock Gold & General fund that's doing steadily well amidst the storm.

It's like my portfolio is back to yesterdays eod price. What about you guys holding NVDA wya?

Vanguard's customer service is always ass. Great ETF's, horrible website

Yeah it would be much safer than a stock.

As a bobo: we should be pumping to 615 off of news alone. This limp wristed rally is alarming for my portfolio

Schwab unironically has white men who will use your last name on the phone at 9pm on a Friday

Schwab is the best

You don't get to .03% expense ratio without cutting a few corners

Schwab truly is one of the most based brokerages.

That's why you hold vanguard ETFs in non-Vanguard brokerages.

We’re going to pump soon and every retard will go WTFWT?!?!
And proceed to say “clown market”

And proceed to say “clown market”

they wouldn’t be wrong tho

Why hasn't the great news that tariffs are blocked sent us back to SPY $600?

GO BACK UP I NEED TO CASH OUT MY UVIX BAGGIES OH MY GOD

50, 100, and 200 ma on the s&p keep getting braided around each other

price keeps bouncing off of VWAP

they're all pointing very slightly downwards

TA niggas, what does it mean?

Give it a moment

Not just safer. Stock market is a zero sum game. Meaning that you're competing with everyone else.
Or you can go the fidelity route and scam retards (see women) with high fee EGS etf's lol

Thermonuclear candle imminent
I dont think it takes a genius to figure out which direction thoughbeit

Lmao if we get to 600 today I will wire you half of my gains today

I dont think it takes a genius to figure out which direction thoughbeit

...down?

Yeah, let's all invest in a country that doesn't seem to know what the fuck it's doing or who is in charge. Literal nation-sized kindergarten.

Like we have a choice.

Wise choice my friend

The fact that they crab all day to make their move after close is fucking Jewish as hell

should not have bought calls

that anime girl in the OP image has me kind of fucked up bros

Don't forget:
Always
Be
Slurping
Winning is for slurpers

Why don’t you just look at charts before you buy a chunk. Or just DCA

...the rest of the world?

All that action AH only for it to disappear during normal trading hours is sus

Bulls and bears both have logical arguments for why the market should be up or down right now. The one thing that doesn’t NOT make sense is crabbing. So that’s what’s gonna happen

That was the final shakeout.
Prepare for the gayest giga pump we’ve seen in weeks.

indicator i made and updated let me know what you think of the fresh description

...said the increasingly nervous mumu for the 5th time today

how do i make money from this fren?

SPLG
SCHG
PLTR
BRK-B
IBIT or FBTC
BBAI

democracy is decided by 3 judges

This makes sense how?

You elected the people who hired the judges.

You were saying?

This makes sense how?

It's a very clear weakness of the system that is now being exploited by fags

Same bet. Starting right now.

All I really know is that I fucking hate this country, the people in it, and the people who run this zoo

i wrote it in the link. although this is not the only thing i use, so if you only use this indciator, i guess you can make money but i dont know how successful escpecially since as i write, its not for timing but more so showing you an area of where we might reverse or continue

why tf are we crabbing? i fucking hate crabbing!

you are failing to understand that these circuit judges are just doing this for headlines as they do not have the authority to halt them, these tariffs are still happening and only dumbass plebs think otherwise

if taco don wants to democratically enact tariffs he's supposed to go through congress.

Not a bad buy, but I think BRK-B is going to crab until earnings. Even if a pump or dump isn't rational, morons will consider it to be the moment of truth since it'll be the first call after Buffett's departure.

The pump will happen after hours. That's why you don't do 0dtes.

40% BRK.B / 13% VT / 6% BND / 18% AAA variable rate bond / 18% variable rate senior secured junk bond / 5% BB rated junk bond

I am too much of a pussy and I have 0 conviction I have more money in savings account but will not draw it. What should I do to escape the state of an homosexual?

thanks fren, i will take a look and have a play around

ibkr, schwab (thinkorswim), fidelity, etrade seem to be the most popular. i use etrade myself

Look again

Everyone just sees what they want to see in the TA kek

it's not, it's clickbait for the plebs so they can think they are #resisting #drumpf, do not make trades on baseless sensationalism unless you want to lose money

this is the straightest porfolio I have seen

Yeah, today happened to kill calls and puts probably. I think that we definitely pump or dump tomorrow when all the option niggers fuck off

I'm going to eat dinner and when I check back SPX will be at least +.35% on the day.

GO 60% VTI / 20%SGOV(US rate almost cash) / 20%BND

Thanks.

Done shaking out panicans, time to pump.

It took me a while to figure out what the taco meme was about, not sure where you people came from. When will brk recover?

Why so heavy in bonds? Are you 50?

The trick is to buy a super cheap call/ put opposite of what spy is doing for the NEXT day and dump it on retail on open. I've lost a lot of money on 0dtes until I understood this. The only worthwhile stats are pmcc, csp and lotto call/put.

No he has as massive dick

Is there much point to holding BRK-B and VT? VT holds BRK-B along with a bunch of the latter's holdings. Wouldn't it make more sense to increase your VT while buying SCHD for safety plus dividends?

How do you all trade the VIX? I feel like I'm literally just gambling

Bond? James Bond?

He's not a taco he's just cucked by dems. I want his retarded tariffs to go through so I can make money. This is bullshite

was going to buy coreweave at 117 earlier this morning

got busy during work and forgot about it

110 now

Wew. Maybe I should just let my money sit a bit longer

No I am a schizophrenic so my mind is too feeble and weak. I want a portfolio that I know I won't sell when the market drops. 1st test went well as when trump liberated the world my portfolio went down like 4% while world suffered 14% loss. I won't get much with this but I need to practice having peace of mind.

It’s insane that as soon as a dump starts people begin frantically buying expensive puts, non normie options traders, in Bart World. Why the FUCK

Maybe DJIA Dow Jones etf. its slower moving and more akin to legacy portfolios.

Opportunity cost is going to fuck you harder than any crash schizokun

I personally dislike SCHDs stock selection logic. It needs 10 years of prior dividends so great new companies can't get in while they kick out dividend growers like Broadcom when they get expensive. I wish there was one with keeping that kind of ones. Like DGRO or DGRW.

Wait is he talking shit about Europe lel? I can’t even tell

just buy the futures etf when it's low. it'll go up at some point, especially now under trump.

Thanks. Maybe I should consider that.
Genuinely good advice. But my mind is so weak to invest in big tech. I absolutely want to invest in PLTR and AMZN but I am too weak to invest in them. Maybe I should start watching gachi mp4s stored in my hard drive.

Wait is he talking shit about Europe lel? I can’t even tell

Open the notification you retard

i bought some more

You sure?

Yes yurop sucks

Okay *unzips*

He panic sold?

Pump eet.

Financial juice just gives you that, no further info or even sources -_-
Poorope is poor but sexy

Biden put it on lumber
And it was like 3% or some shit, it was news for like 2 hours then nobody cared

JEPQ? Obviously not as safe as SCHD, though.

well that was anti-climatic

Judges exist as a check on executive power
This concept has existed since the Magna Carta over 1000 years ago

And it's all algos. People literally lose millions from bots every single day

Judges exist as a check on executive power

that goes both ways xir

Im putting my life savings on PEP, I don't understand why it;s been dumping so hard, it makes no sense and I believe in the products and america staying fat enough to love the products

sold 300 shares of GME at $35

could buy 400 shares of GME at $27

Shit is so cash

I find PEP more attractive than KO but they are never taking over KO's US market share.

it hasn't gone down that low yet.

Nope
You wanna do shit the right way talk to the people who write laws
Trump has ideas but his idea implementation is shit because he thinks EOs are absolute
Pass a law nigger, then you can showboat with the retarded folder in your hand

PEPs always had more exposure to foreign markets. Plus more exposure to snack foods

holy sneed^

america staying fat enough to love the products

I could see it happening

The company is so easy to play around earnings because there are so many tards auto buying for the "le epic moass"

If there are fellow homosexual cucks arond here who want to suck their fingers with 0%+ when big tech gets a mega bull run, I would advise try investing in AAA tranche CLOs and Senior loans as a diversification. CLOs have 30 years of history and AAA tranche never defaulted even during Lehman and 22. TO AAA Tranche CLO to default 80% of the loans in it has to default as when economic downturn comes and there isn't enough money AAA takes money from AA A BBB BB B CLOs. They have rights for it. And there are small amount of investment grade senior loans. And also while high yield default rate can go up to 50%/Recovery20%, and finance guys think senior loans will only go 30%/60% so its safer than ordinary junks.

BUT THERE IS MORE. JUST BUY VTI

comfy bright green Europe time

amerinigger sell off starts as the opening bell rings

whenever i buy in it just dumps further

KO is the largest holder in SCHD atm

JEPQ has short history but till now it has been nice. If it continues this way it will be very good. But if market fluctuates a lot JEPQ will sell stocks because of options so youll eat the downturns and not eat the bull turn cakes. But still, JEPQ seems nice.

Well...

Its prob from wegovy blocking the appetite.

I believe in the gamestop turnaround but I'm not relying on the epic moass to pay my bills. I will however take advantage of the routine retard spikes they experience pretty regularly.

Cause PEP cant manage a fucking business properly. They have a lot of debt and people encroaching on their position. There was something else bad they fucked up long term but i forgot what it was, something about the bottling i think.

mega red candle just happened on spy. there won’t be a 3pm pump

Really thought today would be a pump day. What explains the crab and where do we even go from here?

bored of this crabbing

I knew I should’ve sold that put on Friday close

Lol. Lmao even. We pump regardless.

It's easy to play but I have no faith in that company. Their business has been in the red for years. The only reason they are profitable is the mountain of cash they are sitting on generating interest
they cut their revenue in half and still can't turn a profit

If you guys had a $500k house and a $500k stock portfolio and you can never work because you are too ill how would you invest? Like you absolutely need to hedge the dangers.

Thanks just bought 600Cs

I'd go into SCHD and say fuck the stock price and instead live off divys

Ah outsourcing bottling makes the company capital light and ables them to invest in other things.

for crab day can someone give me a higher res of bart world no mercy? can't find one online, at least with this pespective

i'd sell the house, buy a $200k condo, and put $800k in short term bonds

All in 0DTE 592 SPY calls. If it doesn't hit sell the house and try again tomorrow.

I thought the news about the court were very bullish and the chart is going to skyrocket, but I'm a retard. Happens every time. Time to just trade contrary to what I think.

Yesterday I shorted as it pumped being unaware of the judge ruling.
Then when I saw that I closed the short and went long thinking today would be a big green day.
Then the market went all the way back when it started.
Somebody put a fucking bullet through my skull.

You're right but every Dick and Tom had the same idea so the street has to beat the working man down before he pumps.

I hold vig and its drawdown is usually half that of the index

i hope tomorrow crabs

WHAT FUCKING NIGGER KEEPS DUMPING SPY

Thanks really appreciate it.

Everyone has known the tariffs are illegal for months

Hmm that might be an option. Thanks.
That is a good idea. But I am living in a country where cheap houses are garbage and will be demolished soon. We weren't first world nation just 25 years ago.
I am too homosexual to do that sorry. Only gigachads can do that.

fucking uvix pls hit 28.90 oh my lord

What'd you call me nigga

sisters im scared.

Right after close, news will be announced that tariffs are off, after market gigapumps, retail jumps on calls on Friday open and gets shat on.

Orange man inevitable

False and gay pilled

the vix didn't even spike, no one cares anymore

geg mushits

You were supposed to dump it at 143 within the first hour they always fade the pump so weeklies expire worthless

None of this literally matters because theyre fucking paused

Trump is making US market unstable... but you can earn lots of money only when market is unstable. I am not brave enough so will stay defensive, sucking my fingers while chads who bought 2X NVDA flies to heavens riding black bvlls.

a clever response to the taco taunt

Revoking the visa for chinese "students" and "researchers" is not bad, it was long overdue to send all those spies home.
What's missing is any action at all against Russia. If Trump doesn't want to be viewed as an eternal pussy he should FINALLY summon the ghost of Ronald Reagan and implement urgent weapons shipments to Ukraine, with unlimited ammo, for TOTAL ZIGGER DEATH.

based based based

Appeals court reinstated the tariffs?

Pump it.

Given the TACO comments, my guess is that institutions were swing-trading the entire market, leading to all of the volatility and so-on. Now that it looks like the courts might shoot Trumps tariff powers through the throat, giving him nothing to chicken out of in the first place, they've figured it won't work any more and decided to just wait and see.

The eo abuse started with Obama and now karma is kicking in

Just kill me just kill me just kill me I want to go home

Literally 0 market reaction

Uncertainty is priced in.

BUT THE TACO SPAM

45 more minutes we can still pump SPY to 600

MY FUCKING CALLS SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING

Priced in a meme but this whole court thing is a nothing burger since tariffs are paused until July

Protip:

They will be paused again on July

partly because but mostly because US policy is total chaos in general and there's no point pumping what will dump tomorrow or vice versa
Live a little anon, it's just money and winning is good for testosterone and mental elf

confusing court decisions with TACO man's antics

Try to keep up anon. TACO refers to Trump's flip flopping on tariff declarations, pauses, back on again, deal in the works, cut tariffs with no deal, tariffs back on, ect. The court battles he faces are a separate issue. Rest assured TACO man will appear again soon enough.

oh yeah they're paused alright. except on china, canada, mexico, metal imports, energy imports.

Trump will chicken out again on July

I believe it.

im all in

Fuck it all in on UNH, at least it's mostly unaffected by the TACO rollercoaster

Same bro lmao. Bought big calls at open, sold at loss, bought puts , it pumps, TACO out, decide to call it a day… check back in and SPY mega drops. Instead of making $2k I lost 1.5k. Just not going to gamble anymore for a while. Clearly am too retarded for this.

how?

TACO

Also the C obviously stands for cuck, you don't need to use the sunday school version boys

Mucucks we got too cocky

Trump won't like being called TACO one bit and it will make him do something stupid in response

ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK

ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK

ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK

ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK

ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK

Come on anon
EVERY PULLBACK,

Unfortunately being "the peace guy" seems to be his fixation and America in general just doesn't care a tremendous amount. If I was president I would have invaded Cuba or Venezuela as soon as he hit Ukraine to maintain map control but more cost effective

Here's why that's a good thing.

This is exactly when it started pumping.

It literally is that retail thinks tariffs are good.

All the tariffs are below 50% now anyways. They cant do anything about current tariffs. And the court in-so-many words said trump just needs a better excuse(he doesnt) to get away with going higher.
None of this has changed or would change anything in reality

This sounds pretty accurate honestly

Trump always collects offerings

It's tribute time vasscels

his voter base thinks russia is based, he will not do fuck all beyond lip service to placate retarded moderates

Trump might be too vulgar but he has something right. Without some measures US will lose to CHN in WW3.

JUST PUUUUUUMMMMMPPPPP
LETS GOOOOO

BUY BUY BUY

had the opportunity to sell my calls for -7%

just sold them for -70%

got too greedy

PUMP

Here's why that's a good thing

...And why America should pay for it", an article by Chaim Heebie Greene Rozen BergSteinAWitzOPlatz Cohen White Schwartzen-Shitzucker

I've never seen a micro computer, let alone a super one. Puts.

Blue is actual quality goods and the rest is literal trash.

This only shows the world is being flooded with garbage because the retarded bugmen and their fake growth.

greedy

they were never profitable

lmao

i did double down and did sell the double downs for +50%, but it didn’t cancel out the hole my original left in my portfolio

sorry kiddo, we're selling into the close

Market is way too choppy. This shit will moon or crash, no inbetween

That did already happen to the portfolio of Bobos. Careful how you short.

Yeah the legal system has been weaponized politically when that is not it's intended purpose.

vix is sleepy as fuck though. with so much talk everyone is desensitised, there will need to be more data before people start trading it again imo

Very insightful

I see they haven't learned shit since October 7th

Had a look at MSTR cashflow statement

MSTR

Capex = ($ 22,075 mln)

Cash from Investing Activities = ($ 22,086 mln)

__________+

($44.161 bln)

___

Cash from Issuance of Stock = $ 16,547 mln

Cash from Debt = $5,697 bln

Cash from Financing Acitivities = $22,132bln

__________+

$ 43,276 mln

___

$ 43,276 - $ 44,161 = ($ 885 mln)

Based MSTR wishing well hypermaxxing

SPY 600
GO
GO
GO

its moon or crab

this is so suspenseful. I cant handle the tension. Not even a crab close will cool the nerves

nigga we are retail

Power quarter hour lfg

Nothing like a healthy low volume pump after being red.

Was it ever in doubt?

It feels like the markets now think Trump is impuissant and that his tariffs will never go into effect. Are they right?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I want to ask about some book. Where can I talk about investment books? Is there any board for it? Anon Babble? or here?

Alright I went all in SOXS.

This is all you need.

Based shortchad. Have a victory.

shorting the bottom

Every time

After hours leg down

haha based

What is this retarded soap show lmao

Say it with me Anon Babble BYDDY

Based Yellows Dominate Driving Yindustry

Dump looms tomorrow

yeah, "pump" lmao.

Trumps lawyers begged theyd go to the supreme court to cry about the appeal
So the lawsuit is still active, the tariffs are paused, and now they have to go fail to convince another court

Bobro... we just started pumping because tariffs were back on.

eu tariffs

1% dumpo

eu tariffs delayed

3% pump

All tariffs made illegal

1% additional pump overnight

evaporates gains in open

tariffs are reinstated less than 24hrs later (YOU ARE HERE)

I'm so happy, even a retard like me can trade with just as good a chance as the highly educated autists in here

why in the great lord's name has the market been pegged to 590 this whole week. Is there some weird talmudic magic behind this number?

DING DING DING DING DING

How did it go today?!?!

What would SPY and NVDA be at if this whole tariff fiasco never happened?

589.99

NEW THREAD

I have no idea. Maybe about the same but 10% higher than current prices. There were more factors at play for 20% decline beyond tariffs

I don't want to talk about it fren

Ate a .3% loss going all in on UNH at the start of the day, happy in the medium term though ^^

we're still on page 1 you ass.

Increased my quantity of puts 25%, folio value crabbed

Let's just pretend I had an extended dinner.

I'm unironically getting this book just to read what's in it. How crazy could this be?

youtube.com/watch?v=2eNBfXb-A-Q

I am scared this might happen any time. Wish I was brave and could ride the VOO. Even after seeing USGOV stats that say US is fine I am scared. I am so ass.

attention seeking cunt

a cut above bad weather in NYC souring wall street investor's sentiment which is actually true

Today: +0.17%
This Week: +1.58%
This Month: -2.02%
This Year: -44.64%

this really hurts the soul. one day I hope I can step away from trading

+1.84%

Ohhhhhhhhhh thats why everything went to shit since 2000
Damn. It was literally this simple the whole time

You are telling me people actually need to pay attention to the weather forecast in new york as a small added contributor for market sentiment? Crazy.

yes. it's the same for college admissions. If you happen to get your application reviewed on a rainy day you are more likely to be rejected.

That looks like my line for the year. I got knocked out April 21. Instead of martingaling it, which all my instincts told me to do, I elected to be responsible. So I missed most of the rally.
