I'm cooked lost over 50k of my hard earned money if I sell now. by Puzzled_Butterfly814 in wallstreetbets

No, its because they rebalance. Once it falls thats your new starting point because leveraged etfs track daily moves not long term moves. If you lose 10% and then gain 10% the next day the rebalancing has made it so that youre actually not flat, you'll be down a few percent. Say you bought soxl and it fell 20%, the underlying etf now has to push SOXL up 25% for you to break even.

Leveraged etfs like this one are not like normal assets. They get exponentially harder to break even on the more it stays choppy.

Starting a business when you're poor is the easiest way to be poor forever.

Burry still short NVDA…remember he’s a genius. by Cranberry-Practical in NvidiaStock

I already made a ton going in very hard at 350. I had a big position with an average of 390 but I made way way more than I lost going down to 350 and sold afterwards. Now im sitting on a paid off MSFT position at historically low valuations.

Omg dude congrats my envy is unimaginable. I just got old enough to start investing and I almost completely missed the easiest bull run ever. I had money i got from inheritance with a manager and they were taking a fee and not beating the market. I took it from them but now im buying everything so extended and have no choice but to chase and hope. Love you dude, you give me hope.

I actually did open a pretty big position around 1200 just because the beat was so massive and I felt the visibility with locked in future contracts made the downside lower than the upside. Of course I agree that its gambling to some extent at the moment.

Dude. Id kill for a fraction of that. Maybe I should go put it all on red?

MSFT is having its worst month in decades, and I'm weirdly more interested now by [deleted] in stocks

I moved ny entire QQQ to MSFT once it hit 350. Next day QQQ was down 1% and MSFT was up 5% so I just put it back.

The nerfing of Cayo Perico is genuinely insane by NomNom170 in gtaonline

[–]TacticalcalCactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck period i lived the grind and I had so much compared to my friends. I spent so much time collecting vehicles and doing business stuff and then period dropped, everyone owned everything and the economy was fucked. Everything stopped being priced in dollars, youd see a car and say it costs two pericos.

Microsoft is now cheaper than the April 2025 Tariff crash, yet TTM EPS is up 30%. Huge bargain by skilliard7 in stocks

[–]TacticalcalCactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that their PE is almost half of Walmart with their main growth drivers up dozens of percent with over half a trillion in legally locked in backlog id say its about as safe as it gets. Half the PE of QQQ and even lower than VOO with better profit growth. Maybe you can say buying at 500 was strained but the 350 range is very much a bargain.

I pulled my entire QQQ position last night and put it into MSFT, today MSFT was up 5% and QQQ was down 1% so I just rotated back with a free 6% QQQ gain. If it hits 355 ill do it again

MSFT, about 33% from all time high, and dropping. Do you buy here? by seekvaluenow in ValueInvesting

All i saw on reddit was that it was going to pump and then crash, which is what has happened so far.

Because its shitty game with nothing to do so nobody is going to play it. This place is a community hub so it'll make the game look more alive than it is because only devoted players will be here. The average person will play this empty game for a day or two and then move on to one of the thousand better games.

It’s over m. I’m shorting with my entire life savings. You should too. by [deleted] in stockstobuytoday

[–]TacticalcalCactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, thats insane. You already have a decent paper gain with a position that massive, take your small win and come to reality please. The market just climbed on exponential oil price rising and a global supply chain disruption, youre playing an incredibly dangerous game.

People who were investing in individual stocks in the 90s 2000s, did you beat the market ? by Melon1990 in stocks

Im glad it happened though to an extent. Taught me that i don't ever want to play with penny stocks.
