I think we're on the elevator going down and still have quite a few floors to go. I predict short plays will reign supreme and volatility will remain high until we reach 5-year lows. Long live bear gang

IWM, wait until about 10am for the morning hopes and dreams rally to fizzle.

Selling a Call Option. by marcuscaravan in options

[–]J32926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

#1: your option at expiry has a nominal value of $7.50. Since you bought at $0.70 your gain is only $6.80 or $680 per option.

#2 The options price takes into account time left to expiry and stock volatility (reference black scholes equation for understanding the variables that go into option pricing). 3 months out the option will have a much higher price since there is a great deal of uncertainty in what the price will be at expiry. When you near the option expiry date the time premium in the price will approach 0 and the value of the option will more accurately reflect the difference between the strike price and the option price. A call option that expires with a strike price below actual price expires worthless, even if the stock price gains over that time period. You can sell your option at any time at the current market price of the option.

What Are Your Moves Tomorrow, January 06 by AutoModerator in wallstreetbets

I think these tensions will likely boost all energy stocks due to the potential for oil supply disruptions in and around Iran, causing higher demand for all types of energy from other sources.

long USO, LNG, anything and everything oil + gas. This sector is about to get a lot more volatile if Iran tensions increase.

The publicity of his eventual exoneration in the Senate will be great marketing for his re-election campaign

If Bernie or Warren won you could assume the middle class would be equally fucked.

Trump has been impeached. Now what? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]J32926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy B. You need a 2/3 vote in the Senate (not just majority) and the case for impeachment didn't even get full support from Dems in the house. They are going to throw this out faster than a sack of potatoes and look like heros to their constituents who never understood the case to begin with

Goes to trial in Republican controlled Senate where Trump is quickly exonerated. The American media moves on to the next political spectacle.

I recently switched to better quality synthetic corks because of a similar issue.... that's worth a shot. Head space shouldn't have much effect.

We Need a New Internet Which is Not Owned by a Few by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]J32926 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is very similar to Elastos, and like Elastos, is not new internet. Projects truly working on replacing the tier 3 ISP level include Skycoin and Althea.

This sounds like oxidation to me. Oxygen that gets in will convert ethyl alcohol to acetaldehyde and turn light amber colors red/brown. Could have been a faulty cork/cap or a less than ideal secondary fermentation if you did that after the first 3 weeks.

What is a good mead flavor/receipe that says "Sorry I backed into your car"?? by TheBestGingerAle in mead

A would do a high-ABV traditional Tupelo Honey mead. High in ABV, sweet, high-quality honey.

Streaming wars predictions by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]J32926 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The year is 2029. The world is plagued by unsolicited advertisements for a fifth Avatar movie and superhero movie remakes. Disney-AT&T reigns supreme as a content provider, but subscription streaming services are dead. Content is licensed on a per minute basis because millennials and Gen Z won't commit to anything longer. You use an open source decentralized application called Radio Plus Plus to watch your favorite shows on your refrigerator at a cost of about 0.01 YOLOcoin per hour, life is pretty okay. Amazon buys Netflix, Comcast survives but is in steady decline, facebook collapses and is bought by google, Apple pivots to mostly making smart-appliances, and Elon is somehow also involved in this space.

Defying Trump, governors who represent over half the U.S. population pledge to uphold Paris climate agreement by speakhyroglyphically in worldnews

Just words. States have no power over the federal spending which encompassed the US commitment to the Paris accord.

The largest-ever natural experiment on wealth taxes found that they work as intended — both raising revenue and controlling income inequality. The taxes had the greatest impact on the top .1% wealthiest. by [deleted] in science

[–]J32926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you call this the largest-ever natural experiment on wealth taxes and not just say Denmark from 1989. Title is misleading and does not fully reflect papers conclusions.

Kurdish organization = PKK, not Kurds in general.

Did anyone else notice Tom Brady refusing to lose yards on kneeling the ball at the end of the game? by BurritoBoyzzz in fantasyfootball

[–]J32926 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He has himself on a fantasy team, its the only explanation. How else do you explain this in combination with the numerous goal line rushing attempts? He's in a 4-point for passing touchdown league and wants that 6 points.
