Press S to spit on SBUX and SNAP

Once the bankruptcies start piling up it will be time to deploy the reserve capital, but right now it seems everything is just seethe this and dialate that. It will suck when it turns out liberation day was the low, but you know what? It's like that old sinatra song, #That'sLife

How can SNAP still have negative earnings per share???
Why does this company even have a public listing?

Bvll day will retvrn. Trvst!

The Chinese want America to kneel to them publicly so Xi can sell it for a bit

Didn't Xit Chinkpee already cuck out by rolling back tariffs?

SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP SLURP

It's game theory. China caved the first time because they were unprepared, but they can't continue doing it.

only select tariffs which isn't really a concession, rather it's just them looking out not to shoot themselves in the foot as much as the US is doing right now with its blanket tariff bullshit.

i-it doesn't count! the grorious Xit is stronger!

Well, Trump started it and backed down first with the most important stuff, smartphones, electronics etc

China is eating shit too, just not as much. There isn't really a winner between the two, if anything the comparative winners will be the countries on the sidelines.

Guys, I'm just saying, Powell won't cut because of one "good" PCE report. Last month was 2,5% PCE and 2,8% PCE Core. Both were revised up to 2,7% and 3%. So

Xi had wiggle room to pull back because Trump caved first. The fact that nobody is making a big deal of it is testament to the fact that it worked.

implying collecting taxes when you're over 30 trillion dollars in debt is shooting yourself in the foot.

Lets just take out a bunch of loans and not pay them back!

Just do nothing and they come begging

arr veri tru new
2 mo week america farr

That kind of was the plan (inflate/restructure/war), to me the irony here is trump is the only one who wants America to pay back its debt honestly

I'm buying puts on walmart

recession ressistant reee

yeah but the average retail trader is a mongrel
if we get even 1 week of empty shelves reporting a lot of them are going to hit the sell button
i will then buy calls for when smart money buys the sale

where else are the poor gonna shop at lol

>ONLY 160 BILLION

It's way less than that. People have already dug into his claimed savings and it's full of bullshit.

What does this have to do with stocks?

Loans made of IOU's that we can print on our HP in the back.

We have really been trying to pay all that money back because we keep giving ourselves tax cuts , it hasnt seemed to work for the past 40 years, but dont worry a big enough tax cut will fix the deficit

DG
Got to hack up grandma's healthcare and double your income taxes I guess

I refuse to believe this is real and the market still rallies anyway. Link to the sequence?

It has to do with bonds. If people actually thought that the US would be able to reduce the deficit in any meaningful way, interest rates would be way lower.

Inflation is going to really hurt the USA even if every country manages to barter the tariffs down to 10%.

two energy companies Friday

Bloody red

Is that why we don't hear him tweeting 6 times a day? Really, where is he? He has gone completely silent. Is he okay?

I'm glad at least someone finally understands the tariffs are actually tax cuts and we're going to be giving ourselves the biggest tax cut to finally get out of this hole once and for all.

If you go from 30 dolls to 2 dolls but they only cost a couple of bucks more does that imply people are selling their kids toys to survive?

Obviously it doesn't matter. We all know Trump can barely count and just pulls these numbers out of thin air.

I could find out but I don't want to go on any icky sites.

I bought CVS puts. They offer health insurance service which will be affected by trump tariffs just like United Health. Also their pharmacy business will also be affected by tariffs. The puts are cheap since no one is looking at CVS when MAG7 earnings is today and the only reason I am shilling now is I have already bought the puts for cheap before you idiots pump them up.

Trump is basically saying this is just short term pain this will just be bad for a bit then long term supply issues will subsidy just after the deaths of despair

reddit tomorrow

Bullish

Libtards with TDS need to gtfo /smg/

Market ignores Trump saying shit like Tariffs are a way to get good revenue also captcha

J4APN

You have the best words.

you seem to be lost, let me help you out

>J4APN

Bullish

It's not very 4d chess to view every critique of Trump's policy that you don't enjoy as TDS. Some of us don't actually support politicians like they're sports teams and are just here to bet on the winners.

I'm all in on that company below Annaly on the list

Trump is retarded I lean right but I wanted chaos so far his term is delivering it

I like him sending the migrants to random countries best one coming is Lybia which means they will end up being recruited as mercenaries by Haftar or being sold into slavery and the other is Rwanda which means they will be sent into M23

what does MIGA stand for

Bulls and Bears was always a myth. There are no bears

I am the bear
Your dad? He throats my cock

Make
Israel or India
Great
Again

This. Buy the dip and it's consequences has been a disaster from Bobos.

Make Israel/India Great Again

I hate niggers so much its unreal

The I stands for Israel. People throw it around like it's an insult, but what's wrong with making Israel great again too?

And just like that..

dornal blurmpf and elong mush in my heckin' /smg/s

I've never seen a market so delusional.

I like him removing the US advantage of of cheap immigrant labour. It reinforces my bearish sentiment about the US. Rwanda actually has really nice facilities that the UK paid for. Whoever gets sent there is very lucky.

he didn't slurp

he doubled down on his puts

Kek baggieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

No, the joke is Make Israel Great Again because the kikes think that they can use the USA to bring about their promised land, worldwide, kike kingdom where every kike has their 1000 goyim slaves or whatever and the Trump administration is pretty kiked along with the rest of the federal government so whenever the federal government does something remotely pro-jewish the MIGA memes blow up. India has always been a shithole without a dream.

And we’re in green again lmao

This guy gets it.
Why stop there, all the unemployed neets whose parents imigrated here up to 200 years ago should also be deported for being unamerican.

The India variant became prominent when Elon and others accidentally spilled the beans they want mass jeet labor because they didn't want to pay to educate white Americans

triple green

lmao

Market's pricing in that upside risk from mag 7 earnings beat is greater than downside risk from mag 7 earnings miss

WTF WAS THAT

I just lost all my money in options
I just applied for a loan and I plan on using it all to invest again

You're right. The Indian one isn't so well known though

Remove the cheap non-imigrant labour too. This would be perfect. The US can fully automate everything with the power of AI. Then the Chinese can steal the secret to it and provide the world with everything at a fraction of the price.

the market isnt pricing shit, the market is retarded as fuck and is fake and gay.

Fake and.jpg - 255x255, 10.9K

Doesn't that just regress back into the natives owning the land and the country and kicking the whites back to europe

WTF HAPPENED?¿

Bullish for banking

they didn't slurp

keklmao

I mean if birthright citizenship is sus, its sus for everyone especially those who came on the mayflower.

lmao spy closed green

Retail investors figured out if you ignore reality you can keep pumping infinitely

We are now in a recession and the market goes green. I can't even...

IMG_6087.jpg - 946x548, 199.1K

kicking the whites back to europe

Bearish for Europe

If Trump declared WW3, the markets would still close green

MICROBROS

WE TAKING AZURE AND GAMEPASS TO THE PROMISED LAND! NETFLIX FOR GAMES AND AI DOMINANCE ARE OUR DOMAINS!

If he really said that he is actually the Democrat President that the prophesies called for. The one who would bring Balance to The Force, give us production and factories, taunt the rich as he takes from them and stop those who are breaking us from within with DEI and Illegal browns.

I've seen people here saying that a recession is when you buy.

They love it.

this is fucking hilarious

Hahah GDP-, Employement -, VIX + , nasdaq and shit and pisss 500 positive. lol

Market.jpg - 1933x175, 86.17K

ngl i kinda bought into the leftist idea that this shit is crashing... think im gonna go broke with these puts...

why do you guys keep posting this miga fuck trump shit if we just go up anyway? like science would tell us shit should go down but its not...

actually NDX is down

Recession is two quarters of negative GDP growth

When Jimmy carter says to put on a sweater people lose their minds . When Trump says kids will have to live with less toys market closes positive. Make it make sense.

Trump Nussy.jpg - 469x542, 57.67K

We did go down quite a bit already you know.

the market is full of poor retards overdosing on copium
bad data? surely that will mean they'll stop the shit policies!
good data? well fuck it worked out so keep pumping!
etc.

why do you guys keep posting this miga fuck trump shit if we just go up anyway?

Because I like it when it goes up and down and up and down like a machine powered dildo hammering your anus.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT FUCK ME WHAT NOOO

I SOLD 7 OF MY 10 435/445 TO "LOCK IN GAINS" SHIIIT I CAN'T BELIEVE ITS REALLY DOING 10%

I'm the time traveler who told you about MSFT btw

stocks finished green today lmao

IMG_7433.jpg - 409x694, 35.77K

wtf?

META AND MSFT VEAT EARNINGS

big sell offs 5 minutes before close

massive buy ins right at close

And this has been going on for a week straight now. I'm not going to pretend like I know what is going on but it seems very sus

Literally nothing happened. It's been written.

The imminent recession being blatantly initiated by one man induces a state of permanent delusion that he could simply act rationally and pull back at any moment, so the retail investor buys forever. The average American (retarded) doesn't view Trump for who he is and what he says, they view him as a blank slate that they pile their own views onto and just assume he also believes in all of them

Get a load of this genius

IMG_2175.jpg - 1536x1024, 544.81K

BUT THE GDP!!!!
DONT FORGET THE NEGATIVE GDP!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY ARE YOU BUYING!!??
N-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

yep most people are completely delusional, not realizing we have elected a fascist

Initial jobless claims could be 500k tmrw and this gay market will still pump

-0.3%

Net exports being the biggest negative element

a literal nothing burger
people and companies are still spending

what the fuck we actually closed green for the day? i saw s&p -2% and took a nap

I knew i should short but they would fuck shit up. Looks like i was right. Now i can get back to shorting
China still hasnt retaliated yet

WTI doesn't believe any of that shit

I need to stop buying stonks but these dips are so juicy my BWC throbs for a 2% shit and piss discount

Gigaretarded reversal

MSFT gigapumping on earnings

5580

Yeah, this is the top.

fascist

Do you mean moron? I'm sure you mean moron. He could be giving illegals extra government cheese and a free doll for their kids, but the tariffs would still get the stock market behaving like this.

no dingpost

Okay, fine. How'd everyone do today?

He is ravaging the mind of so many Jewish pedophiles they are selling their assets thinking there will be a recession and the media blitz continues but the resiliency of America is unwavering

Personally, today was a good day to be a bear. Carried some puts into today, sold them early during the dump for a pretty penny. Did a little more trading in the middle, ended up net positive there too. Stocked back up on puts during that retard pump at the end, no way that stays that high by open tomorrow so good cheapies.

The entire generation of retail traders has been conditioned to “buy the dip” as if 2 post-recession recoveries weren’t erased in a single decade in the 2000’s, both taking nearly 7 years to achieve.

We are due for another one of those. You will have a chance to ridicule people who bought in this April in about 3-4 months, and then continue to do so while their bags refuse to beat inflation/bonds over the next 3-4 years.

Retail regularly providing exit liquidity from the markets. Like all things they are over leveraging themselves not in the sense of options but in spending money they cannot afford to lose but they are desperate to escape from poverty and reality and a lifetime of clown market has broken their brains. Many of these guys are buying BTC as well if under 30, makes you think. I lost money on UVXY and SQQQ today, not much but the cost of being early or wrong. Still for those with large 401ks -20 to 30% down I often ask them for what reason does the market have to rally? They mumble something about 08 or how strong it was doing a few months ago, that now we can recover from the tariffs as if they hadn't just begun and many of them are only temporarily paused. Ho index is in one facet such people still having hope, planning vacations and spending on luxuries. You'll know were at a bottom when these people start to scare you not just on freeways but with their words and eyes. Until the last pleb dollar is spent the short rallies in juxtaposition to all data will continue.

This is the most schizophrenic day of trading I’ve ever seen. I only lost 100$ but I am all cash from here on out unless all all of (you) and the market at least start pretending to be trading rationally again.

DING DING DING DING DING

How did it go today?!?!
How did it go this month!?!?

(sorry, i was in a work call)

That's pretty much my theory as well. We need to see a lot of people losing their jobs before reality will hit them.

I suspect it is something like what you linked, automated behaviour. What I wonder about is what the logical end point of this trend is. Is it institutions carefully dumping their stocks, or are they consolidating their positions as immovable giants for the decades to come. Things like that...

New to the whole thing, how much shekels do i put into a stonk?

Today: -0.38%
This Week: -0.47%
This Month: -30.69%
This Year: -43.64%

Tried to short the bottom, failed

I made 1100
I up .4% today

What I think is interesting is how europeans are being kicked back to europe for being tourists and white collar workers.
This is definitely bearish for american companies that are sourcing white talent so short Boeing.
How come ICE is so non racist in their deportations?

Sold my weeklies (puts) at the literal bottom. Wanted to scalp 0DTE calls but I’m 2 trades away from being flagged a pattern day trader and I’m too poor and degenerate to deposit $25k.

Loaded up on May 16 RBLX puts with a couple OTM call weeklies as a hedge. Overall up about $1,500, but I’m still down 50% on the year.

This is why index investing exisits. You would have only been 5% down ytd.

i'm balls deep in puts expiring between friday and the end of may. i bought most of them 3 minutes before close today.

down on the long term. up on todays day trading.

Even bulls have to admit this is absurd. What a fucking clown market. I think the COVID money printing and rebound broke something in people's brains and we're just going to melt up until it all comes crashing down.

I was invested in indexes
...but they were leveraged

daily target leveraged etfs are retarded, hopefully you leveraged properly

You could take a look at some mining, it's operating separate from the market trends, even gold miners are lagging behind gold spot. Not just PMs, copper, rare earths, aluminum; they are being hit as other commodities perhaps by the threat of a down turn but consider militarization plans around the globe and data centers will carry on requiring large and small scale electronics regardless of economic woes. If shit flinging continues mines that used to be unprofitable will become de facto sources with few alternatives. In a shortage of a commodity capital will flow in that direction as a solution.

Nice, open up and then take the shaft of decay.

Buying HIMS 3 month calls tomorrow

Meta’s Reality Labs posts $4.2 billion loss in first quarter

Biden's market is doing well

At this point, I believe the only way for the market to dump is for Main Street to truly feel the effects. Unironically, the situation is VERY reminiscent to that scene in The Big Short, where the guys are right, the data fucking prove they're right, and the market behaves like "lol don't care". That's only after the disaster happened that the market reacted, when it was far too late.
The best part? The market pumping today (and tomorrow due to the earnings) will only make Trump go "see, nothing happened, my tariffs are GOOD for the market. The market LOVES my tariffs" and he will fully commit to them. Don't expect any tariffs relief after what happened today and will happen tomorrow.

actually it's donnies market again now (forget what he said in the morning)

services

Does Hollywood count as services?

That article is a decade old. The exchanges have put measures in place to stop that sort of thing causing flash crashes but the general situation hasn't changed. They can extract enough value out of retail investors trying to keep up that they don't even need to worry. The line can go up and down all day any they'll still end up in profit.

This happens literally every crash. Look up literature about the run up to 1929. There were alarms blaring for months, and everyone ignored it, until it happened.

This isn't unusual. This is what should be expected. Be bearish, but be smart about it -- that's the trick.

I lost 99% on mutant salmon and finally capitulated recently if it makes you feel any better.

Hey, no politics here

IMG_1914.jpg - 680x940, 63.05K

Why exactly did we go from 550 to 556 15 minutes before close?

You create a product and you sell it. Or alternatively you sell subscription SERVICE to people.

Circuit breakers only work one way and at certain thresholds.
Its only bidens market if it closes down, if it crabs or is positive it is donnies.
being right early is being wrong.

So we can short again tomorrow

Insider knew MSFT would beat. Yes really.

So I've been buying TZA and SQQQ, I sell it at green and then I go and buy SOXL and TQQQ sell at green and then I go to buying TAZ, SQQQ. I'm up like 50 dollars or so. Is there something bad about buying and selling the same stocks repeatedly?

Pretty real, i legit cannot use it at all whatsoever, it makes me wanna fucking vomit

Just sold my amazon

Imagine if they miss or don't beat to a high level

you did buy Tilray at the bottom right anon? Can't get lower and they are one of the biggest mj companies in Canada. Better hop on the rocket, either ride a dead cat bounce or hold for the long term gains

VR can't be profitable when enthusiast GPUs cost $2k.

Also enthusiast GPUs are increasingly focused on fake frames that don't help VR at all. VR wants pure raster power, fake frames are a good way to end up with real pukes.

3K now with tariffs. And 3.7K with the added scarcity post-freight crash.

At some point during the war with the machines we will black out the sun, but then the machines will take humans and plug them into a type of VR simulation while their bodies are grown to be harvested as a renewable power source for the machines. You're better off investing in the AI until the war breaks out and at that point none of this will even matter.

Oh, don't worry, they were $3.5K before tariffs. They'll be $6K+ by the end of this year.

That's a wild theory, something only a tranny could think of.

Bearish

Bullish lol these people have no finnical self control

Can't get lower

I have probably nothing made in US. If at all, maybe a 100€ electric guitar (epiphone). Everything else might be US company (HP Notebook (bought used)), but that's likely made in China. No clue what there even is to buy for consumer that is from the US and why I would buy it made in the US at 10x the price vs made in China.

Short term cap gains on everything, make sure funds are all settled to prevent good faith agreement. Also wash trading rules for losses on some bought and sold repeatedly within 30 days, only consequences is being unable to write off losses if applicable.

nooooooo brobo

They make lots of household cutlery, plates, and glasses in the US I would know since my house has abunch from the states

*good faith violation but I assume your buying small amounts anyway, but they don't want you selling something you technically haven't paid for yet.

Tomorrow will be the intresting day MSFT and Faceberg are going to be profitable no matter what since software and data will only grow it's literally a safe industry in a recession

we feed alot of hogs in other countries.Most of that corn and basedbean are trash for human consumption.

We sold almost $2 billion in beef to China last year, this is not going to happen this year. The one working rare earth miner & producer in America was selling some of its ore to China until 3 weeks ago, so now they have no cash flow.

Short-term crisis starts March 20 and lasts 3 months

This makes Q1 and Q2 negative quarters

None of these metrics are expected to be 100% precise. Even GDP is just an approximation, but it's the best that we have.

Recession is two quarters of negative GDP growth

Refresh my memory. While two quarters means a recession is happening, doesn't it also mean the recession actually started in the first quarter of the decline?

The thing is -and it has been purposely omitted by this administration- is you very likely consume a BIG export the US does : services.
Be it your Windows device, your Google search or google maps for free (you are the product, remember!), maybe your neighbor has a Netflix subscription or whatever normalfags also use for music. Your company has subscriptions with AWS or Azure or Oracle or whatever.
But hey, look at the numbers, bad people in Europe or in Japan don't buy US manufactured products, this is LE BAD. I'll TARIFF THEM *omits to count services in the exports*

Genuinely curious here, are the markets completely disconnected from reality?

are you now becoming aware?

Not completely no, but you should know from talking to people that reality takes a long time to set in and is easy to avoid for a while with enough consensus

i can't stop buying REITs. this sexy bastard is gonna get the fed to reduce interest rates and I want to be the first to the party.

Trade talks going well.

China sends a stern video message to Trump: We won’t ‘kneel down’

In a sharp rebuke of President Donald Trump’s trade war, China’s Foreign Ministry posted to social media a striking video that calls on the international community to stand up to America’s “bully” leader.

“Bowing to a bully is like drinking poison to quench thirst – it only deepens the crisis,” China said in its video, narrated in English and subtitled in Chinese. “History has proven compromise won’t earn you mercy – kneeling only invites more bullying. China won’t kneel down.”

The video narrates a history lesson of what China considers American economic aggression, forcing companies like Toshiba and Alstom into breakup, financial crisis and bankruptcy and sending Japan’s economy into “decades of anemic growth.”

edition.cnn.com/2025/04/29/business/china-video-trump-trade-war/index.html

Look like they wholefully understood what happened to Japan in the late 80's.

so bullish, right?

Ive had talks with Xi. Great talks. The best talks

chink videos himself swinging dao and screaming

chinah numbah wan! No neering!!

*market buys the first news about great talks going on, anyway*

The market predicted the empty shelves on liberation day now they're predicting the future bull run after tariffs bring all industry back?

Obviously. But don't ask why it's not pricing mankind conquering the stars and setting up new opportunities and galactic trade routes. Even though it should definitely price this.

I still don't get who's going to be working in all these onshored industries given unemployment is low and we're about to deport tens of millions of immigrant workers.

I don't understand it. Why don't they price in the imperium of man and the dark age of technology? Yet they pump based on something that will probably not happen in 2 to 4 years.

futures

IMG_0055.gif - 498x498, 3.56M

The market thinks some kind of extremely bullish thing is coming, it must mean most investors think the tariffs are gonna work. Or that they're gonna be repealed in a few days.

Perception is its own kind of reality. Things happened today that demonstrated the Trump.admin has the capacity to make sensible compromise. The Ukraine deal was agreed without any restrictions placed on Ukraine joining the EU. Even a small measure of sanity produces a lot of hopium. Also bullish for US defence industry and all industries requiring access to said minerals.

still seething about Russians hiding in your walls

Give it up, Anon Babbletroon
Ukraine LOST

he's agreeing with you, you retarded slavic ESL moron.

retail retards are just buying the bags of people exiting the market

Alright lefties, you missed your buying opportunity once again. What's your new cope that you have once again missed out on purchasing at the weekly generational bottom once again? More delusional emptyshelfposting? Perhaps another dash of insider trading cope?
Y'all really just need to scrap a few nickels together to buy some fractional shares of VOO everytime you post and you'd have generational wealth at this point.

Fuck I have a flight just before market open tomorrow. Shit's gonna be stressful

Why didn't you buy puts? Why isn't everyone buying puts? t. only have 20 index ones

weekly generational bottom

listen to yourself

I'm not buying anything until 2029.

Is this Chinese spam? Reddit and Anon Babble are constantly shitting and pissing their pants about Trump yet the melt up continues. Most everyone is beating earnings but the sky is falling?

shit and poor 3500 is where i am a buyer

Market is priced like we have found the cure for cancer and imortality, and its free.

SO THAT'S WHY IT'S GOING UP
FUCK THIS

Lol enjoy never buying in.

the worry is that nobody can really understand why the S&P would for example jump 1% after an unexpected negative growth reading for the quarter, and that this is 2007 again where we're sleepwalking into something that seems quite obviously like a bad idea

Wages go up service level jobs switch to manufacturing. And then we get 100 million Indian coolies

This is before talks succeed and we rocket to new ATH’s. Reminder: the market is a machine that transfers capital from bears to bulls.

holy fuck do you hear yourself?

The no portfolio faggots can only take extreme globalist / leftist stances when it comes to tariffs

USA delays tariffs - FART OF THE DEAL

China cucks - NOOO HES A GUARDIAN

Then when you call them a loser bitch they cry you're in a cult.

china: we literally have no heard from the US in weeks

US: we literally talk to china everyday, we're actually negotiating right now

china's trade minister: we have not spoken to the US regarding a single thing and are asking they do shit before even considering approaching us

US: we are literally weeks away from a deal with china things are going so so smoothly

this is like two little kids, this is fucking insane

Do you trust the communist face culture maggots to tell you the truth?

On this specific issue, I trust China to be quite honest with you senpai

Kek

See here's the thing: China has less reason to lie about talks not existing while the US has more reasons to lie about talks happening. If China lies about not talking to the US and a deal happens, it makes them look weak. But if the US is lying, they can just keep lying and saying the talks are ongoing to keep seemingly looking strong.

Also, at this point the US burned a shit ton of bridges with the rest of the world. China is absolutely going to use this to effectively isolate us and has no reason to negotiate. We handed them a win they couldn't achieve on their own in a 100 years on a silver platter by deciding to fuck everyone at once instead of just China. The rest of the world is in a position where they need to choose sides and the US is now the untrustworthy one.

All yuro chihuahuas

yeah, so what haha
All my life I've been hearing from Americans themselves how they are of European descent and their culture is inherited from Europe too. In certain ways I would agree with that. It's only now that suddenly Europe is your enemy rival or something.

1st paragraph

Idk dude, the Chinese gov have a massive hard on for coming across as ‘for the people’ to the Chinese. Think censorship, rewriting historical events etc.; in this way, it makes sense that they want to come across like they are playing hardball. If/when a deal is struck, they can make like they won easy peasy.

2nd paragraph

Yeah, fair enough maybe you’re right. Then again, I don’t think that the developed world will be so quick to cast America aside. Furthermore, as it stands, china do kinda need their export market. The aging population is also a massive long term worry (if covid was made in a lab, it was definitely to try and solve this lol).

also, fuck this 120s bs

Do you people read what you’re writing. You’d have to be the biggest retard on the planet to view China as more reliable than the US. Remember when the market continues to melt up, that you took the same position as hysterical Reddit bots.

actually gotten a bit of fomo out of this pump hope it crashes bigly

But reddit is bullish

I also gotta point out it's more likely the Trump admin is lying because they're been chronically lying about every single aspect of this that looks bad.

Egg prices are down!

They're not

Tourism is up!

It's down

The increased prices aren't because of the tariffs!

They are and you can literally see that even after they bullied amazon into not listing it by checking the import fee relative to the product

You’d have to be the biggest retard on the planet to view China as more reliable than the US.

One of the two sides in this trade war suddenly turned on partnerships that have lasted for decades and tariffed the shit out of everyone they trade with. And then they reversed course. And then they reversed course again. And now it looks like they might reverse and un-reverse again.

That side sure as shit isn't China. You know how bad it is when you're making fucking Xi look like the reliable one? At least he's consistent, unlike our unstable ass where the tariffs change dependent on how much Trump's dementia is acting up that morning.

Neheheheh

Yeah, is fair point. Still, maybe is just to stop the markets from pooping pants?

I’m not set in my opinion at all (admittedly a bit biased to bulls cos im a bit of a newfag to trading), but my best guess is lots of these things are very ego-mind based (tariffs)/sentiment based (market).

Idk dude, I’m mostly cash as of the start of this week, not trying to cope w my gain/losses. This deranged market has become my current ‘tism obsession tho for sure lol.

The true king of this stockmarket obviously is Netflix.

Your continent is in the middle of a war, lmao.
You are weak

damn china isn't fucking around huh
sucks that it has to be this way but burgers won't learn otherwise

But also come on, chill dude, ur all cash n tryna cope w the bull run or what??

You’d have to be the biggest retard on the planet to view China as more reliable than the US

de Gaulle was right, you know

and to think I was about to buy puts, wtf is going on

Buy puts on Friday after earnings nonsense is done. They'll be nice and cheap and easy to flip.

Oh I don't give a shit about any kind of bull run. I'm speaking more towards long term for the country as a whole. It's not going to be fun living in a country going full isolationist.

250% tariffs on china

stocks surge

but i thought tariffs would hurt us?

wtf happened to this guy?

We havent felt the full effects of freight cancellations
Should start seeing the effects next week according to the Port of Los Angeles

With about everybody reporting blockbuster earnings... has anybody.... well.... ever questioned where all the money is coming from? Everybody is making record profits.
Who's paying for all of this?
Who's minting all of those dollars?
If it weren't a significant amount of newly minted dollars each and every quarter, then the "money velocity" would have to be at warp speed. Which is supposedly isn't.
Where the fuck is all that money coming from.

two more weeks?

Rastafarino

As to what might have happened to the guy:

his sister was diagnosed with terminal cancer yet did a miracle recovery and is now cancer free (according to him)

he finally went completely nuts

he reached "fuck you" money status and literally can afford himself being "this"

What the fuck happened during power hour/after hours? I stopped looking at SPY and it went from being down $4 to up $4.

im just citing stats, according to their scheduling, they have a 35% drop coming next week

Does this fake and gay market need a reason to do anything?

anon tries to have a think

fails miserably

It's kind of admirable to see his tenacity on VR. He doesn't seem to give up despite "wasting" billions of dollars on it.
Does Zuckerberg even do charity work, btw.? I mean, if autistically deployed, that money could have solved world hunger half way by now.
Be it as it may it is still puzzling to me that nobody has even attempted to build the "hub world" I think is required for VR to even remotely succeed.

HAPPENING in 336 more hours!

It's already started. It's too late now.

The market is going to rug so bad on just the right combination of news related to this apparent lack of any negotiation whatsoever. The udea appears to be to evade all questions for long enough that real negotiations actually start and they can say so without China immediately saying they're lying.

But I don’t think the USA will isolate.

Before I say anything else, I am English so I’ve had more than enough shitty government.

In ref to drumpf, he’s an egotistical mong for sure. He’s also probably not a complete retard; at least, the people around him aren’t all complete retards. The US (along with probably all other developed countries, bar maybe Germany*) could never be totally self sufficient and also be an economic power to be reckoned with. As I understand it, the US, being a consumer driven economy, relies on imports to an unhealthy extent (similarly, the UK economy is ~50% financial services [mega retarded]). Trump doing a trump to press countries into new trade agreements (a) serves his ego, and (b), may actually scare world leaders into renegotiating trade agreements in favour of the US (because trump actually seems that retarded)

Solving world hunger is evil. Those countries are already spawning like crazy with a destructive culture.

Faggot bakers, please take note that there are THREE (3) /smg/ threads in the catalog RIGHT NOW. Including one from yesterday; note that it is still usable; people could post in it right now if they wanted to. It is annoying to search /smg/ and try to figure out which fucking thread is the latest. You don't get karma from baking, so stop doing it 20 hours early.

Time to bake a new thread

It'll probably be a lot like APPL with Tim Cook. TSLA is a fashion brand at this point.

I'm gonna start baking at 100 posts just to fuck with you.

The effects won't be seen nor felt until the consumer feel them. It'll be more than one week, more than two. old stock has to dry up first and the stock sure was piled up in the last few weeks. I'm not expecting the consumer to feel anything until this summer.

We're talking about a guy that answers to phone calls from god knows who, and doesn't even question the real identity of who's on the other side of the line, and answers questions anyway.
Surely you can impersonate a chink. Or a journalist so you get insider trading information.
It's fucking retarded. Everyone and everything is fucking retarded.

BREAKING: Tesla share price falls over 4% in overnight trading amid Wall Street Journal reports the company’s board is searching for a CEO to succeed Elon Musk

it's fucking over

This will tank Tesla in China, their last growing market. The Chinese don't associate Musk with Doge/AfD etc. They associate Musk with SpaceX. Musk being the CEO sells vehicles in China.

Xi look like the reliable one? At least he's consistent

I just started following financial news 2 months ago

-4%

But why? It was a month ago and they never went through / aren't going through with it.

It's called a brokerage because it's making me broke.

How can SNAP still have negative earnings per share???

Their augmented reality glasses R&D eats most of their revenue, I'm bullish long-term. Shame this cool shit is not a separate company.

Maybe close the meme charts and take a walk outside while your stocks appreciate. You do own stocks, don't you anon?

Nigger

youre not allowed to own niggers anymore
you don't have any

musk said hes not fully quitting the government and that pissed off his investors and board
his board wants him out of politics altogether period

I'm bullish long-term.

Wtf is sexy about snap?
It's a shit company with a shit business model

I'm about to lose my ass from gold tomorrow.

I'm balls deep in VR/AR and they showed me their glasses: at the current state of technology they're best in class, even compared to Meta's Orion. I see it as an AR company funded by a half-dead chatting app for underage drinkers. Snapchat makes enough money for them to work on their moonshot project, and that's good enough for me.

Sell SPY 585/590 vertical call spreads 45 days out? That's what I'm looking at doing.

How's it going?

i forgot about it and it burnt in the oven give me a minute

oh shit. I just got back from reddit.com and word over there is that the USA is collapsing. Shelves are going to be EMPTY and everyone will be out of a job except literal children who will do hard manual labor. You might want to sell everything.
