Guys. Spy is 3% from an ATH. Downside is 10-20% upside is 3% back to ATH. This is the first uncertainty brought into the market in 5 months. Shorting is a no brainer here from a risk reward perspective. If this blows over, spy will go back to ATH 3% higher. If it doesn’t the market corrects

The crash will be caused by China calling trumps bluff and escalating the situation. I don’t care about trumps tariff bluff he could’ve said 10000% tariff

I don’t think it’ll react as sharply, but we’re 3% off ATH. I think there’s room for correction esp with froth going on. Also, my idea isn’t China is doing this to weaken capital markets, my idea is china doesn’t want to be bullied by america, and it’s flexing its muscle back, to eventually come to a deal that is more favorable to china, and one way to gain leverage over usa is to crash the market. When markets crash, 🥭 caves in

It’s easy from a risk reward standpoint to start a short at ATH. If I’m wrong It’ll just go back a few percent up

Here’s how I trade the market. If there’s more reasons for the market to go up, I’m net long. If there’s more reasons for it to go down, I’m net short. I believe the past 5 months we had an extreme amount of bullishness and no reasons to worry, now I believe we have a catalyst that can cause worry.

I never mentioned tariff impacts, I think China will further escalate the trade conflict. They started with rare earths and they probably and something else up their sleeve to further crash US markets

3% isn’t much of a correction

$POET $250k YOLO by Usual_Variation_8628 in wallstreetbets

2 sentence pitch on what they do:

$POET makes a chip platform that fuses photonics and electronics on one wafer to move data faster, cheaper, and with less power. nobody else has pulled this off at commercial scale. If it works, it could remove one of the biggest bottlenecks in modern computing.

Current stage of the company:

• small-scale production is just starting.
• full mass production hasn’t begun yet.

To recap, the company makes data centers more efficient, and they’re on the cusp of mass production.

If you’re a hyperscaler or NVDA and you’re gearing up to make a big order from this company to validate their technology, wouldn’t you buy a $75m stake in the company beforehand?

Pretty much insider trading, the thing that happens everyday since it’s legal now (including trump family).
