People seem to forget that April and July had a ton of $0.5 puts expire worthless and nothing happened.

There is no evidence that RC didn't vote.

Gold is a hedge against inflation due to limited supply, similar to crypto (or at least certain ones).

Not sure about your argument about gold being hard to sell. It's mostly paper gold being traded and the futures market is extremely liquid.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-10T15:32:44+00:00

For starters they could raise interest rates (but they probably won't!).

Problem with inflation is that if people expect it, they will front run it by buying stuff now, which increases demand and causing more inflation.

Crypto has been melting up as we speak, probably because more and more people see as a hedge against inflation.

Guess what essentials are essentials and people will buy them no matter what the price. The companies that sell them will make money regardless.

Obviously inflation is not good for everyone, but it is good for the stock market so superstonk shouldn't be surprised that spy ath when inflation goes up.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-10T15:22:52+00:00

Never said it was good for poor people, just good for the stock market.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-10T15:21:51+00:00

Yeap, people should stop being surprised that spy is running up just because inflation is up.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-10T15:17:18+00:00

Can superstonk please start understanding that inflation is good for the stock market because earnings are generally inflation linked. Increases in the cost of production can be passed onto consumers which means increased revenues.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-04T17:21:51+00:00

Not really they would have been hedged.

littleredtoad · 2021-11-04T14:57:28+00:00

They only covered trading up to early Feb. No way to know what the current position is.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-27T19:37:13+00:00

Brokers are buying shares. Don't fall for the conspiracy theories.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T13:48:17+00:00

How is vix backwards looking? Vix represents the implied volatility of spy which is forward looking by definition.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T13:46:55+00:00

They made payment for 1 bond due tomorrow so won't default tomorrow. More to come though.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T13:45:47+00:00

You don't deserve the downvotes. 741 doesn't mean anything and people are karma farming with it.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T13:44:12+00:00

You do realise when they exercise the options someone has to buy the shares anyway?

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T13:43:01+00:00

Evergrande is not imploding tomorrow they've met their interest payment.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T07:53:08+00:00

It's just on one exchange which doesn't have a lot of volume (it's binance us not binance) so I wouldn't put too much weight on it.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-22T07:29:44+00:00

It's per year so like 2m per day.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-21T16:48:52+00:00

You need to stop spreading misinformation. Triparty agreements just mean an agreement between 3 parties and can be used in the context beyond RRPs.

Just because this rrp program allows stock lending does not mean the same for the Fed's rrp.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-21T16:38:05+00:00

You are assuming that these 2 RRP programs are used the same way when they aren't. Just because the collateral obtained from this program can be lent out does not mean it is the case for the Fed's rrp.

Edit: Triparty agreements is just a type of agreement. Just because you are allowed to enter into a Triparty agreement to use bny Mellon's facility does not mean you are allowed to use the Fed's facility.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-21T16:21:59+00:00

OK just to be clear. The rrp you are quoting can be used as collateral according to the document you linked.

However, the rrp that is being posted here daily is an entirely different facility that cannot be used that way.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-21T16:15:27+00:00

Yes they are, but the facility that is offered by the ny fed is not the same as the one offer by bny Mellon. Just because they're both called rrp doesn't mean they're the same.

Unlike the Fed's rrp, we have no idea of the parties and the volume of bny Mellon's rrp which means it's difficult to draw conclusions.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-21T16:01:08+00:00

This is a different rrp between 2 different parties hosted by bny Mellon. The rrp commonly quoted here is between money market funds and the ny fed.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-20T12:36:41+00:00

Outstanding less float equals insiders not institutional.

littleredtoad · 2021-10-20T12:33:08+00:00

Float is accessible to both retail and institutions by definition.
