The Kerrygold that has actual gold in it? My Man!!!!!

Well, if you bought the dip yesterday and sold the pop this morning, it's a very sweet day. I also bought some puts near the top but sold them WAYYYY too early.

Grizzly Adams DID have a beard!!!!

Don't get too excited....this will all go away as soon as the next political party change...and then they can go back to 25 mpg.

Pledged Asset Line.

That's how you get a down payment on a car, not how you get early retirement.

I have wished that an indicator lights up when we're running on some form of auto-steer/control mode. Mostly out of "See what I can do", but as a warning, as you mention, sounds like a good purpose also.

Even if it's all made-up, I wouldn't put it past Elon to try to make it come to pass. Just for the lulz.

People who poo-poo short term capital gains tax, I imagine, would still gladly take a large bonus from work. (If you no longer have to work now, imagine back when you did)

NARRATOR: He did not.....

SHIB to the 🌛

That would be a self-defeating action. Not gonna happen.

The big fear is the counting. It seems very complicated when a mix of a large variety of options and underlying stock is involved. Do you know of a program/spreadsheet that would correctly calculate the new basis across trades of varying size? All the examples I have found involve very basic...

BE CAREFUL! Schwab told me they only match up exact options on their "disallowed loss" display, but that is not what the tax law says, as far as I know. To be compliant, 30 days either side of the loss sale you can't have bought the security or its options. This is what I am using to control. I...

I may not be understanding your strategy, but doesn't the net zero gains rely on avoiding wash sales?

My son just bought one with purported May delivery. SoCal.

"Want a hertz donut?" "What's a hertz donut" BAM! "Hurts, don't it?"

30 Call Options for 1/21/22 @ $20 strike (3000 shares participation) bought 9/2 for $4 and current price $16.

Never go full Gordon......

You said it. I got a minor exposure to LCID a while ago. I wish them the best.

Right....when Mike Tyson stops punching me, it only makes sense that he's helping me feel better when he stops.

Not only that....expensive wars ended but Military Industrial Complex gets funding increases anyway. 😧

I just don't understand why some billionaire would not just pay them donate more than the fossil fuel lobbies.

Out of curiosity, why a month early?

They are not a public service...they are in this to make money.

He foresaw the wrath that would be piled on CEOs that amassed massive billions in stock. Visionary.

wow.

Is 100 4/9 calls (650, 670, 690, 700) a lot?

This presumes consumer prices are elastic. They aren't always. Maybe even not usually.

Well, you don't have to keep any more shares in that account than to support any withdrawals you have made. It isn't "locked", per se.

With Schwab.....I moved shares to a new account. The PAL is attached to that account. They allow withdrawal of up to 60% of the value of the shares. My Schwab margin rate is 3.5% and the PAL is 2.25%. So a small rate difference, but those shares I had intended to lock up anyway are in a...

Just making sure you are aware of Pledged Asset Line? Would prevent you needing to YOLO for cash to pay tax.

Yeah. I got 40 contracts yesterday for $15 and just sold them out for $57. Bought back in for 4/9 @ 650.

Would the cooking fuel be electricity or LOX?

I'll be RICH, I tell you...RICH!!!!!!!!! Oh, wait a sec.........

So long as we are OT with GME comment, I read a note about "shorting" GME by way of XRT. I bought some 90 puts this morning and they were green by 40% an hour ago. Only 25% green at the moment.

Have you never tried to submerge a beach ball in a pool?

I assumed it was "follow" tech test.

I'm old enough to have bought mine when it was $90.

I want to see what happens when it tries to follow with 2 trailers attached.

Wave your freak flag high!

...or the next split....

The SP....it's circular. Its like a carousel-- you pay the quarter, you get on the horse. It goes up and down and around. Circular... circle.

Stop taking in new money......

Bet there are a LOT fewer diamond hands this time around.......

I suspect this is just the natural result of a massive pocket-picking yesterday. Shameful.

Hilarious that my warning got moved here, yet the "sexist meme" remains.
