Thanks for the detailed response. I guess ill ask you the same question i asked the other guy. From your write up it does sound like theres less gamble-y strategies people use. I haven't actually traded anything yet but have been thinking about jumping in with some money i dont care about losing all that much. I was thinking about sticking to the big cap companies, buying ITM 2, 3, 4 weeks ahead of earnings and selling the day before to capture IV gains. Is that a reasonable strategy assuming you could stay disciplined and not hold through earnings and get crushed?

They just have too much at this point. This is enough money to straight up buy 100% of multiple mid or even large cap companies. Liquidity becomes a problem too. To put a meaningful percentage of this cash into even a mega cap stock, they’re going to have to pay a premium as they meet the asking price of all the shares being offered for weeks or months.

Is there less gamble-y strategies people use? I haven't actually traded anything yet. Just trying to learn. What if you use a strategy like sticking to the big cap companies, buying ITM 2, 3, 4 weeks ahead of earnings and selling the day before to capture IV gains? Or are you better off just trading the stock normally at that point?

I did a double take when I looked at the market cap - $353M. Xerox is a microcap.

With that much money couldn't you just fuck the system by choosing a stock with 100B+ market cap with upward momentum, and buying extremely short dated contracts that forces the algorithm to keep it going that direction lol Or is that how the system magically fucks you put of 300B+

Venmo makes up 3% of PYPLs revenue. PYPL about to sell it for 10 billion. PYPL market cap is 40 billion. Do the math. Long PYPL

Just a calculation of future projected growth vs current market cap. TSMC’s market cap is already much bigger, easy to see a path where Intel outperforms them for 5-10 years

+ the photonics boom, lumentum used to be part of JDSU which rocketed during 2000s and crashed 97%. Also how is MRVL not in sp500 yet 140b cap

I mean it already is? Look at the market cap, not the stock price. If it went to 1k it’d be worth like 5 trillion lol
