The year is 2332. You just earned 2000 earth credits thru months of tritium mining. You park your janky mining shuttle on low earth orbit just in time for the market open. You send a tight beam to the UN stock exchange as the bell rings hoping to capitalize on early spy movement only to be front run by a hedge fund using quantum entangled high frequency algos from alpha centuri b. You end up buying the top before market whips in the other direction annihilating your entire position in 30 microseconds. You set an auto course to the sun.

The Gr. Might b the last cool hot hatch made for a long time

Also good names. I had Newmont for a while but sold it for Barrick. Posted this morning: Investing in Barrick (B) and SBSW are more than buying stocks. With them you have: • ⁠Exposure to 2 great metals - Copper (Cu) and Gold (Au) - one important regarding currency debasement and the other a Tech metal sorely needed for Ev's, Data Centres and AI compute. In the case of B, the old CEO is out and Elliott is now a top 10 shareholder and they don't mess around. IMO this means the company is worth a lot more than it's trading at currently. I have been adding more B and SBSW on dips for the past 3 weeks and have doubled down and both of them have already been money makers for me as diversification to my tech holdings, which I also continue to add to on dips.

I'd rather fuck a B because I can do it with my buddy Powell at the same time.

Posted here before open this morning and again at the morning dip to not miss SHOP, ASTS and LULU and also B. I added to all 4 of those on the morning dip and then watched them all fly. I’ve actually been adding to SHOP for the past 3 weeks and have essentially doubled my position in it. I don’t know why so many here don’t see it. It’s going to smash earnings again this quarter and I see it hitting $275 - $300 PS in the next 18 months.

What's worse than making a large acquisition... Trying to, and failing.  Now everyone will be wondering what their plan B is. What they might buy next. Did they need to buy it. Management reputation still down the toilet etc.

We will all b ok. Just hold - quantum is the future. I have all 4 covered with QPUX and also down but holding strong.

Be European: two choices: (a) Work yourself to death for 40k a year and 4 weeks off (b) Drink Be American: two choices: (a) blue color job 100k a year no healthcare (b) Multi-million dollar business you started in your garage

Next week is a huge gamble. Long puts in the 160-180 range are a much safer play imo. It seems like the only reason we're talking about ORCL is because of the pump to $340 a couple months ago, as well as some insane institutional fair value quotes. Realistically, ORCL has a huge customer base with their existing SaaS portfolio, so they could either a) focus on building that out (slow steady growth), b) go whole hog into cloud and AI which could lose legacy customers (imminent failure or speculative explosion), or c) invest in finding the happy medium (interim drop in share price but back to current highs after 3-6 mos). Given the state of the market, I think credit lenders would prefer ORCL explore option a) with option c) being on the table if market volatility remains low given rate cuts. TL;DR - this is the ultimate "sell the news" stock right now. Larry and his boys shouldn't be making headlines. Institutions aren't fucking with that. If you see his face on TV, buy the puts.

B/c not buying WBD
