Ya know.. I was looking at my portfolio and again, questioned why I was still in AMD.
I hate you AMD. Will exit and never look back...... someday
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah I wanna pull out of it... but my position is too good and it never hits the $15 selling point I would pull out at. I got in at 10.09 so I'm sitting at 25% gains where it's at right now. Gonna pull out next earnings run.
Also was freaking out about pulling out of my 38.64 MU shares wayy to fucking early but thanked god I only had 10 shares in it (thought I had 20 or 30 shares) so the tendies would've been tiny for me. If it doesn't dip below $50 again and just runs to $70+ I might just invest in $ROPE

Yup, if he liked the money he could live in a mansion with several lambos. Instead he simply lives in a single house all his life with a shitty car. His life sucks, despite being a billionaire.

The desktop client also freezes constantly, there's no way to scale it for high-density displays (i.e. all the text is tiny), and there's no mobile app (yet).
The lack of mobile app means I'm tied to my computer, which would be fine if my full-time job was to trade. But it's not, and if one of my positions makes a big movement while I'm in the car or at a lunch appointment, well, ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
Seems like a rushed beta version, unfortunately. I'm going to put my money back into Fidelity until they've got their shit sorted.
## Speaker_0: ##
Mobile is our main resource hog at this time. Hence long fix times for things. We are growing.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I didn't need a response or excuse, but since you offered one: I don't understand. How is there a "fix time" for something which does not yet exist? Or are you saying that you're focusing so much on mobile that you don't have time/resources to fix the desktop client?
As for the fact that tastyworks is growing: as a retail investor/consumer/trader, I couldn't give a fuck less. The only thing I give a shit about is whether or not your product is complete (it's not) and offers advantages over the dozens of other options out there. Thus far, your competitive advantages (e.g. charts and commission structure) are moot because I can't even use the fucking thing half the time.
Put out a finished product and I'll give it another shot. I'm not a VC investing in some start-up's shitty beta, so the status of your company's growth means fuck-all to me.

I know you are jesting, but so did Bill Maher, and HBO stock didnt tank.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Maher isn't the former CEO and chairman of HBO, he also wasn't on a conference call about how not to be racist.
## Speaker_0: ##
Which makes it more racist. Maher made a joke about slavery on television in front of a live audience. Papa John quoted someone else using the word in a private call with his PR firm about managing negative press. Maher's usage was clearly more inappropriate. Imagine if Papa John went on Bill Mahers show, and made a joke about being a "house nigger", you know damn well you'd be furious.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I think maher was stupid to use it but he hosts a politically incorrect satire show, not a billion dollar company. Papas quote was him using a 19th century southerner using it as justification for him saying it in 2018. I think the real difference is that everyone kinda knew papa was racist but no one really believes maher is a racist.

Even as sure a bet as a lot of people thought this fight was putting down 100k at -650 odds is definitely a yolo move
## Speaker_1: ##
I had the same thought as this guy. I can never pick a stock that'll give me a 15% return in one day. I didn't have the $100k to do it but it seemed like smart money. I would've been sweating after Connor landed that uppercut in the first round.
## Speaker_2: ##
15% or -100%
## Speaker_3: ##
IF you think Conor even had a chance, you're a fucking madman.
But this is WSB tho so
## Speaker_4: ##
Apparently a lot of people thought he had a chance given the odds, right? Dingus.
## Speaker_5: ##
I think people thought it was fixed more than they thought he had an actual chance to win the fight on his own.
The smart money was on "draw then rematch", and I'm even shocked that didn't happen.
## Walls1337bot: ##
It WAS fixed by them, watch it close again, Conor pulls his punches, Floyd leaves open shots on the table.
I thought it was to draw a rematch and take the smart money fleece again, but if not, it seems they had an agreement behind the scenes to make it look good, let Floyd guarantee the 50th win but let Conor walk away with his head held high and 100 million dollar payday.
I'm not convinced there isn't a rematch on the back burner, the way Floyd spends his money, he'll be going broke again with 24 months.
Either way, neither of them put in a real effort, just a really good pillow fight.

So I can either close both positions at once or buy back the 271s first?
## Speaker_2: ##
yes. also, what were you thinking opening this spread?
## Speaker_1: ##
No idea. I thought I'd be able to sell the 270s thinking the recovery is starting. Now both options are gonna expire worthless or I have to take the loss
## Walls1337bot: ##
Jesus Christ dude you opened a credit spread. You WANT them to expire worthless... You already collected the premium. You're negative because if you closed them now you would dip into your colateral. Just leave it alone and you'll probably be fine.

makes sense tbh, there wasn't a recession after the dotcom crash, unlike in 08.

## Speaker_1: ##
How long do you think it'll take to bottom out/how far do you think it'll drop?

Didn't the guy say he knew he wasn't going to win after like the third year. He said the million dollar bet was probably one of the best losses he ever got as it gave him an inside with warren buffet; that they met at least once a year for a meal to discuss the markets... Something like it was the best consultant fee and the most valuable 1 million dollar he every spent. The last time Warren put a meal for auction it went for 2.8 million and the winner can invite up to 6 people, I think.
## Speaker_1: ##
Wait warren buffet puts having a meal with him up for auction...? your one of the richest men in the world, why charge money which you have practically a limitless supply of?

It takes a lot of dumb ass fuckups to actually tank the market. If Trump hadn't started this retarded tariff shit SPY would be over 300 and Nasdaq would be over 8500. He has already fucked us out of half our gains this year.
I'm waiting to sell when the yield curve inverts but I'm not stupid enough to think that there is much room left for this market to run. Maybe we make 290 again before the crash. Thankfully I'm invested in recession-proof stocks like TSLA and AMD so I could still hold and make money when we hit a bear market.

Good one.
## Speaker_2: ##
You realize that we can literally force them to pay, right? There are hundreds of ways to do it. Tariffs, remittance taxes, sanctions, etc.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Trump does not have the political capital to pull any of that off. He didn't have the ability to pull off healthcare reform even though he has a red congress that flew that flag for 7 years. He cannot get a remittance tax without congress and congress does not support him. He could use executive authority to tariff imports which begs the question why he has not done that already to start saving for the wall, my speculation on that is because he knows the shit storm that would cause. If he sanctions mexico over this he gets impeached.
Assuming he figures out how to fund this wall without any problems he then has to break ground and build and he does not have nearly enough popular support to survive the ads showing all the Americans he is going to have to steal land from to build the thing. He does not have the capitol to endure the mass protests that will happen on both sides of the border.
Even if he pulls all that off somehow then he is just gift wrapping Texas and Arizona to the democrats in 2020 because now all the dem has to do is be a middle of the road dem and throw in the campaign promise of returning all the land that Donald Trump stole to build the wall.

3. Not spending your money
4. Trading fucking options instead of ETFs
It must be xanax talking but good job kid. I can only say this, using the same strategy will eventually burn you, as it has countless traders in the past. As young as your age (18 or 19?) I thought some advice would be helpful:
#Take the Money and buy yourself an BMW ///M5 2017

Boys, listen up.
We've got someone who's got BOOTS ON THE GROUND inside of a mother fucking HIGH SCHOOL, where entire nations economies are either made, or are catastrophically destroyed.
The fact that you all are berating him sickens me. He's got his ear to the ground, he hears what all these 16 year old kids whisper in the halls about what they think they want to major in in high school, that Brittany's tits got bigger over summer, that lunch today is fucking chicken patties again. He sees all of it. No bullshit economic reports, secondary sources citing models and data that are probably just all made up anyway, who cares.
The point here is the storm is brewing. Just the other day, both Brent and Dave said "I think I want to major in CompSci idk". Soon it will be everyone.
And as OPs flawless logic says (again, how are you missing this?) if everyone majors in CompSci our country will be a post apocalyptic wasteland. There will be no doctors, construction workers, teachers, accountants. They will all just be looking for tech jobs that DO NOT EXIST. And you might say well, in an oversaturated job market, wouldn't someone just be economically incentivized to follow another career path?
And the answer is yes, OP stop [posting in hentai subs](https://www.reddit.com/r/hentai/comments/4mg6yh/itou_life_laying_down/) and [saying nigger on the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/WhiteRights/comments/4rssx9/the_shooters_from_today_are_niggers/) and skip straight to killing yourself.

It's up 20% today jesus christ
## Walls1337bot: ##
Leverage those dumbfucks who bought thinking it's amazing only because it's social media, short when it's up by 50% and watch Facebook buy it out in 6 months.
## Speaker_1: ##
I think it will stay high actually. And if facebook wanted to buy it, they would have done so already...
## Walls1337bot: ##
I just don't see how it can stay high. I'll get serious for this comment and go out of wsb character and explain why I believe it. Their valuation is based mostly off of hype and their large active user base. Snapchat and Instagram are used for predominantly different reasons. Most people consider snapchat to be more personal in nature. You use it to send goofy drunk pictures to your friends. Instagram can be more of a professional user experience, you use it to build your personal brand or whatever the fuck.
The largest way for snapchat to generate any profits is through advertising, and maybe they start charging fees on snap send (their money transfer platform), which only dumb teenagers use to get nudes from camwhores.
Personally I'm already pissed when I get a random ad for turbo tax on how to fill out a w-2 at the end of someones story. The other way they make money now is from the buzzfeed type tabloids that post their "news" on snapchat too, which not a lot of people watch, are kind of difficult to navigate, and pretty annoying. And considering they have yet to release concrete financials, we only have estimates as to what their revenue actually is as of right now.
The only thing driving the price increase is effectively that its a new IPO that people are excited about. And popularity doesn't equate to profits. I'm not saying the stock will tank, but rational thought will catch up to the hype and I think that growth will level off next week when we get some financials finally. If their revenue stream doesn't grow, in the next quarters, interest is likely to go down.
They've turned down facebooks offers because the CEO wants to keep full control, which is understandable. Even large investors won't get board votes on the new IPO. But I predict stagnating growth in the future, which might make certain investors back out, and certain revenue streams dry up, creating the potential of a buyout.
But it's absolutely a safe short term option until the financials come out, and I'm absolutely taking advantage and shorting a decent volume until then.

GG GOP guess we won't get tax cuts for another four years
## Speaker_1: ##
Not only did they have seven years, but they have congress and the presidency. This is just failure on all fronts by the GOP.
## Speaker_2: ##
It might've had something to do with Koch pledging buttloads to the GOP to vote no on it.
## Speaker_3: ##
Or maybe some Republicans don't think that they should pull health care coverage for 24 million Americans.
## Speaker_4: ##
Oh come on... really?
1. That's not what repeal and replace means
2. I never heard those people equating pulling Obamacare to that. Nor saying they're against pulling it
3. You can't make a list with only 2 numbers
## Walls1337bot: ##
>You can't make a list with only 2 numbers
Austism, and right. Repeal and replace doesn't inherently mean making 54 million Americans not have health insurance ten years out, or increase the debt by trillions ten years out. Not inherently.
But that's what *this* bill would do. All while only lowering premiums by 10% (when compared to Obamacare's trajectory) *after* over a decade of raising them (compared to Obamacare's trajectory). So this was a shit-ass version of repeal and replace, and that's all it's going to be if the GOP keeps collapsing under the weight of its own divisions and inadequacy.
Oh, and this bill was going to limit coverage and possibly even remove the provisions for staying on parents insurance till 26 or covering prexisting conditions, if the Freedom Caucus would have voted yes if those stipulations were repealed.

And a *guaranteed* 35% return is never real.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah let’s be real without more context that does sound shady. A vague real estate venture that needs high middle class people to invest 100k and the dude GUARANTEES 35% return? Maybe it’s just a great opportunity but why wouldn’t they just target a couple of really rich folk who could shell out that cash no problem?
## Speaker_2: ##
Oh no doubt, I'm sure it's a bad idea to give that real estate dude money. I'm just saying their rationale is dumb as fuck. The post I linked has almost a thousand upvotes and all it says is that 35% gains aren't possible.
That sub helps stupid people get out of debt but once they reach zero it is absolutely worthless.
## Speaker_3: ##

You mean you invested your emergency fund instead of keeping it in an Ally 1.4% savings account?
## Speaker_1: ##
I invested my 12k emergency fund and i'm up to 25k right now(I trickled a few more k in, maybe 16k total of my own money). I'd say it was well worth.
Whats wrong with that?
## Speaker_2: ##
If you lose your emergency fund, you’re fucked. The whole point of an emergency fund is to have liquid equity that can be used instantly in an emergency.. you clearly don’t have an emergency fund if it’s tied up in investments. Nothing wrong with that, I wouldn’t call that an emergency fund though

## Speaker_4: ##
And what if the market takes a 20% shit for the month. Are you gonna sell low?
## Walls1337bot: ##
Its an emergency. If the market took a 20% dip tomorrow would you still have made more than 1.45%. I dont leave 100% in three market, leaving 6 months of my life in a 1.45% account is dumb.
To edit though I'm in my twenties. I'm low risk and single. A credit card with my investments as backup (not in XIV) is perfectly sustainable. If it dropped 20% I'm young I figure it out.
I'd rather use my credit card for those sweet points anyway.

Why hasn't Moviepass filed for bankruptcy yet? Are their investors as retarded as we are and just love burning money?

I lost a bunch on HMNY... I did, and still do think the idea of MoviePass is brilliant at its core... but shit, even my dumb ass got out back in ...April?
EDIT: After looking at the chart... it had to be earlier than April, it was still worth dollars per share, lol

been flipping out about Trump's tariffs and like railing on him....and that's with Trump basically making the Indexes go up 20% last year. Maybe there's a reason to be worried, but it's fucking hard to time the market, and this guy who sold this morning (if he's honest) just lost out on gainz.
## Speaker_1: ##
I feel like Trump is going to pull some 4D Underwater Chinese Checkers with how he's not backing down on tariffs. Trump personally feels responsible for the market improving since he's taken office, he would be dumb to impose tariffs that do nothing but make the market react badly and go down. He'll probably announce some dumb shit once enough traction has been made with tariffs like how he's reversed his decision and resigned into TPP or some shit just to fuck with everyone.
Guess we'll see in the next few weeks if this was all a ploy to force what he wants with global markets or if he's really just not that good at economic policies.
## Speaker_0: ##
TPP will not be signed into law. I don't think anyone is saying tariffs will be a boon for economy. But I think we should trust Trump, even as investors.

Boys, listen up.
We've got someone who's got BOOTS ON THE GROUND inside of a mother fucking HIGH SCHOOL, where entire nations economies are either made, or are catastrophically destroyed.
The fact that you all are berating him sickens me. He's got his ear to the ground, he hears what all these 16 year old kids whisper in the halls about what they think they want to major in in high school, that Brittany's tits got bigger over summer, that lunch today is fucking chicken patties again. He sees all of it. No bullshit economic reports, secondary sources citing models and data that are probably just all made up anyway, who cares.
The point here is the storm is brewing. Just the other day, both Brent and Dave said "I think I want to major in CompSci idk". Soon it will be everyone.
And as OPs flawless logic says (again, how are you missing this?) if everyone majors in CompSci our country will be a post apocalyptic wasteland. There will be no doctors, construction workers, teachers, accountants. They will all just be looking for tech jobs that DO NOT EXIST. And you might say well, in an oversaturated job market, wouldn't someone just be economically incentivized to follow another career path?
And the answer is yes, OP stop [posting in hentai subs](https://www.reddit.com/r/hentai/comments/4mg6yh/itou_life_laying_down/) and [saying nigger on the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/WhiteRights/comments/4rssx9/the_shooters_from_today_are_niggers/) and skip straight to killing yourself.

You've got two options now:
Chase your high and lose most of that in other risky plays on the market in the coming months.
or
Diversify into solid stocks and ETFs and retire in 5 years, that's seriously life changing money at your age and you should now be thinking defensively.
## Speaker_1: ##
You can't retire on 300-400k at 25... not in this country at least. Swear y'all are acting like this dude is into 7 figures.
## Speaker_2: ##
You cant even retire at 20 with 1 million.
However, you definitely can retire early if you have 450k when you're 20. Invest it and work for a few decades and you can reasonably expect to have 2 million when you're 40 (7% growth per year with a 10k annual contribution).
## Speaker_3: ##
You can retire with 1 million easily.
As long as you have the $1M diversified in the markets, you can withdraw 3.5-4.0% of the total amount practically indefinitely since the S&P 500 has returned 9.8% annualized since basically forever. If you're frugal you can live on $35,000-$40,000 a year.
EDIT: [Here's proof](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_study) for the autists thinking you need more to retire on.
## Speaker_4: ##
The people who say you can't retire on 1 mil are people who think it's inevitable that you have to buy more expensive things all the time. Millions live their entire lives on 40k or less while killing themselves working every day and you're going to tell me you can't make it work when you don't have to do anything at all? Get out of here with that garbage.
## Speaker_5: ##
Another good point I saw someone make is that you’ll probably earn some extra money ( not enough to solely live on) doing side projects or jobs when you’re ‘retired’. Because if you’re retiring early you’ve got a shit load of free time with fuck-all to do.

Weird. I had no idea police entered schools.
## Speaker_1: ##
They do. About 40% of schools have police “resource officers” or something to that effect. The worse part is that parents and kids don’t even know that they shouldn’t talk to them. With that said. Many people hardly know about not talking to police on the street. But it seems even fewer people know that about cops in schools.
Edit: what I meant by “talk” was in the context of an investigation. Not friendly banter or whatever.
## Speaker_2: ##
Not American and did not follow school shootings closely. Assuming your comment is not a joke, why should you NOT talk to cops?
## Speaker_3: ##
It's not just an American thing. Cops have a huge amount of power over you and a small percentage of cops are bad people who became cops to abuse that power. Talking to them will open up opportunities for them to fuck you over.
Basically talking to a random cop is roughly equivalnt of going into the woods at night with a random person. I mean sure most random people aren't going to murder you, but the one who wants to gets a big opportunity alone in the woods.
Cops are dangerous. More dangerous than any crime in my city at any rate.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> a small percentage of cops are bad people who became cops to abuse that power
You obviously don't know a lot of cops, I'd say 70% of cops are the last people you want to give that kind of power to, it's not an occupation that attracts the best and brightest.
Being a rich white guy, the only reason I know this is how many losers I grew up with that became cops, and then meeting their loser cop buddies. Even shitty cops will play it cool with the general public, they commit all their crimes against people who's word no one believes.

Actual good advice? Certainly does not belong here
## Speaker_1: ##
Not really. Businesses cost time and require capital. At 19 the best time and wealth investment is focusing on your work. Then when you're not a retarded shit 19 year old and got 80k+ coming in, you can actually run a business right and don't have to worry about bankruptcy. At 19, the best bet is buying a 4br condo for school with parents credit and renting out 3 rooms.
## Speaker_2: ##
What line of work do you recommend a 19 year old go in cuz I don’t wanna be poor :-(
## Speaker_1: ##
Depends. Trades if you don't want to be in school a long time, but you'll be doing a shitload of hard and repetitive work. You'll be aching in pain at 40. Anesthesiology if you can stomach a nursing degree and a masters. Petroleum is a gamble but you can learn anything for that, get rich for a bit, and do the same work elsewhere if the market goes bad. They pay retarded salaries, I've heard of truck drivers making 150k. https://www.reddit.com/r/oilandgasworkers/comments/9wwe9p/what_do_you_do_and_how_much_do_you_make/
Otherwise, look for something here you could do. https://www.glassdoor.com/blog/50-highest-paying-college-majors/. It sounds cheesy as shit, but do find something you could at least halfway enjoy. If money is the only motive, think of it in terms of being able to work more years and get more promotions if you don't hate your job.

https://www.businessinsider.com/exit-polls-who-voted-for-trump-clinton-2016-11#by-income-clinton-led-only-among-voters-with-a-2015-family-income-under-50000-a-group-that-included-36-of-the-voters-in-the-exit-polls-4
$50,000-$100,000 income voted 50% Trump, 46% Clinton. It was the biggest margin of victory for Trump vs any other income group.
It's complicated because if you look at education attainment, the higher you make it through college, the more likely you were to vote for Clinton. However, the higher you make it through college, the higher your wages are.
So really, it's just a quirk of statistics. We can actually glean something from this.
People who have attained lots of education, BS+, but have not attained a high income for whatever reason *overwhelmingly* supported Clinton.
People who have attained high income, despite having less than a BS in education attainment, *overwhelmingly* supported Trump.
It's the only way to really get the numbers we are seeing from the exit polling data.

Food hall? Are you gambling with your students loans?

How is saying "I would rather eat my own organs" publicly in response to a private DM not harassment too (by twitter standards)

I just don't know what to believe, everything I hear about this company sounds so reputable.
## Speaker_1: ##
Believe the guy who intentionally went to the FDA to try to bankrupt them so he could make money on his short position. That's the most reliable source.

You want to bet against the biggest retailer? Are u mad son?
## Speaker_1: ##
Walmart Revenue = $482B
Costco Revenue = $116B
Amazon Revenue = $107B
Home Depot Revenue =$82B
Target Revenue = $73B
## Speaker_2: ##
they have 40% market share of all ecommerce. Next biggest competitor is 7%.
Ecommerce is growing 20-40% a year. Amazon is the fucking giant here.
## Speaker_3: ##
Doesn't change the fact that they aren't yet the biggest retailer.
He didn't say "fastest growing."
He said largest.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> He didn't say "fastest growing." He said largest.
Nope, he said *biggest*.

You're crazy dude I bought in at $20 and bailed as soon as the headline hit about FB. I converted to Facebook, match won't be able to stand a chance.
Even if FB takes 1-2% of their share that's going to crush their bottom line.
## Speaker_1: ##
I dont invest, I trade. Match is going to be fine regardless.
## Speaker_0: ##
If you're looking for a quick 10% bounce back up I suppose it may be worth the chance but if any type of good news comes out about how successful the dating feature is for FB within that small time-frame Match is gonna get crushed.
I was HUGE on Match as my long term best play in my portfolio until this news broke. Online dating is massive but FB just wrecked them the moment that happened.
I like Netgear as a solid play with gaming companies looking good and 5G networks on the horizon. US is also banning Chinese tech so Netgear may get a huge bump from that too.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Not talking about investment here. We just want a good quick gain and leave the fuck out.
## Speaker_0: ##
I get that but why bet on mtch taking a bounce rather than fb. You're banking on mtch going up faster than fb after bad news.
Too much risk. You ca probably bank on fb being up 3% this week and if some shit goes south it's a safe long bet.
You would need match to go up over 3% this week with a falling knife. Whsts the ceiling, 10%? I say fb is the safer play with more upside to match the same profit percentage
## Walls1337bot: ##
Thus it’s called bet not investment! Negative news was overblown. FB has not eating their marketshare yet but market already priced that in. Wtf is that lol.
That’s why I was betting on the short term recovery. Holding 1 month calls here and see what happens.

Like enough to retire 10 years earlier. The people here are maniacs.
## Speaker_2: ##
380k is 10 years of retirement savings to you?
that's 38k a year...where do you live that 38k is enough to live on?
## Speaker_3: ##
380k generating returns for the next 20-30 years is a much different proposition. Never thought I'd have to explain compounding on this sub.
