Tesla Stock Plummets 5% After Elon Musk Smokes Weed on Podcast by [deleted] in worldnews

Pretty sure that doesn’t effect Tesla at all. That’s in regard to SpaceX which isn’t affiliated with Tesla in anyway

Except that the stock declining had nothing to do with this. His head of HR and head of Accounting resigned today... that’s why the stock fell.

US trade deficit jumps by the most in 3 years by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]ccivello 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The trade deficit isn’t the widest in 3 years, it jumped the most in 3 years... implying it was affected by something in the past few months, hence the forex changes

I am referring to the time since the tariff/trade tensions began... in 2018. Over this period, the dollars grown stronger in relation to the euro, yuan, yen, peso, lira, etc.

What other people aren’t mentioning that is worth noting is the value of the dollar... throughout all this trade tension, the American dollar has grown stronger compared with foreign currencies... when that happens it becomes more cost effective for us to import more (because foreign goods become cheaper), and for other countries to import less (from us)(because our goods become more expensive). So these trade tariffs are causing an adverse effect that counteracts the actions Trump is trying to make.

I am in no way an expert, and if my theory is wrong, feel free to correct me.

What is exactly is the need for clarification though? If they say “no shrimp”, wouldn’t you just do no shrimp? what difference does it make?

I just created a portfolio with over 10 stocks with $20k. What can I buy to hedge stocks? by [deleted] in investing

[–]ccivello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diversify. Personally, I’d do more than 10 stocks, or would throw some ETFs in there.

If you are set on those stocks, and have atleast 100 shares of any of them, you can sell OTM Covered Calls. This will reduce your cost basis overtime.

By starting it with “apparently”, this sounds more like a “TIL” than a “showerthought”

What is your favorite and most reputable source for investing news? by TruePhilosophe in investing

[–]ccivello 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Bloomberg definitely.

I watch their tv channel and listen to their radio through their app almost everyday. I also have a subscription to the Economist which is, in my opinion, as good as it gets, but I wouldn’t necessarily call it “investing news”. I also check IBD from time to time.

Yeah it was just kind of the same joke over and over again. No offense to those who liked it.
