You know, I have no idea. I don't think so though.
I believe JPow when he says M1 and M2 does not correlate with inflation at all, and neither do central bank assets.
Gold by definition has a zero yield, and even treasuries are better than that. So as long as inflation is below or at around inflation, there is absolutely zero sense in going gold.

Gold miner stocks on the other hand will pump as fuck along with the general market.

Commerce Department released the report for January economic data.
Main takeaways

>Consumers spending up 2.4% (estimated 2.5%)
These are largely attributed to the $600 stimi checks
>Personal Consumer Expenditures Price Index (what the Fed uses for inflation) was up 0.2% on the month
>Comes out to 1.5% YoY, matching the Dow Jones estimate

Okay, imagine the following scenario:
XYZ company, 1000000 outstanding shares.
Share price is $1, daily volume is 1K
Let's say you and I start trading one day:
>I sell you 300 shares at $1.1
>You sell it back at $1.2, since the price increased
>I sell it back again (profit taking) 300 shares at $1.5
>You sell it back at $1.6
>Trading day closes.
-390 + 480
You basically gave me $90
The stock ownership didn't change
The company market cap increased by $1M.
Where did the $1M come from?
Did it cause inflation?

You can also imagine the same scenario in reverse. That will answer the "where did all the money go" question. It never existed. Market caps are not real in this sense.

This demosntrates the problem with stimmies.
The FED does QE, so it just pumps the bond market. It never really leaves the asset market, but gets thrown into stocks and then back to bank reserves.

The stimmy goes directly out to the economy, and circulates for way more time, increasing money velocity (the only thing that really matters) driving prices up.

If you really don't plan to cash out in 3 years, you should be okay. Also keep in mind that we may reach the top of the asset bubble anyy minute now (tm), and you'll have to hold for 5 years after the top.

Pros: better yield
Cons: huge drawdowns, so if you don't have the stomach for it, or you need cash during a dip, you'll lose a ton of money.

I put as much into SOXL and TQQQ as I can until I get to a point where I'd be devastated if it went to 0. The more wealth I get, the more I put into leverage, nominally and proportionately. My house is a 5% downpayment so that's 20 times leveraged for example. Personally I think semiconductors and big tech are just as reliable as housing.

It's a bit more involved than that. It's a compromise between better yield and more beta slippage. As you can see, SP500 has way less beta (and I guess better Sharpe ratio), so you can get away with more leverage.
The Nikkei has been crabbing for 30 years, so beta slippage is pretty bad there.

Look at crabby months, like September October 2020, sometimes QQQ and QLD outperform TQQQ because 2x suffers less volatility decay and 1x suffers none.
The ddnums article on leveraged ETFs basically says there's enough of those crabby periods that 2x leverage is better.
That's only looking at past performance though, 3x might be better for this decade but then again maybe not.

I know its just retards buying the dip, and then options whales piggybacking on volatility to push the ask price and buy up your stops, but it really makes your wanna put on some tinfoil.

I can see why Robinhood traders fall for the market manipulation meme

The smart thing to do is put a custom condition to submit the order at the price your stop limit would be set at, but that takes too long when volatility is as crazy as it is today, if the market bounces or sinks you could lose like 40% of your gain in 3 seconds.

If you're looking at stats alone, it never says "100% of day traders end up losing money", it's usually in the 80-90% bracket, which yes.. means there's day traders that are profitable. The thing is though, those are most likely professionals with a decade+ of experience which most normal people will never achieve because they're too lazy to actually learn new things, especially as they get older.. so for them it's not actually day trading, it's just pure gambling (which as we all know leads to you losing money 99% of the time)

Nah, this is not the way to do it. Everyone trades based on price action, you will never have an edge there. You have to do somewhat deep research to have an actual edge. If you don't do that, all data you base your actions on will be priced in.

I agree. And that's why the liquidity excuse is bullshit, especially on highly liquid assets like the indexes. If you can't make at least tens of millions of dollars day trading then how can ten different people make 1 million dollars day trading? There are only so many possible edges you could exploit. And Medallion and other similar quant funds are likely exploiting them all until they disappear. They don't trade just one strategy, they collect all the strategies with an edge they can find and add them to their portfolio.

>The likelihood of you buying the absolute top of an asset is the same as the likelihood of timing a trade and paying the lowest possible price.
So you're basically admitting you don't have an edge and just hope and pray that the price goes your way and you don't blow up your account.

the fact you can't understand that when it's repeated over and over makes me think shitty analogies might be more your speed
anyways i came here to get comfy so i'll just drop it. hope you're tickled with the image of me throwing my account into meme stocks or something.

fidelity wouldnt let me buy back my iron condor and the put leg expired ITM. I sold the shares for an even larger gain but they didnt even give me a warning, just three GFV and then the ban. Ive been meaning to call then but it’s too late for this short call today

I do believe this slpit will go the way of the AAPL split. There will be a mass buy in with a mass sell off before reestablishing a proper 65$ floor.

That means you'll have time to properly research Covered Options strategies anon. If you don't you can lose a ton of money.
(Key words are implied volatility, gamma and skew)

It really is great (It's like lending out your shares like an apartment, but for 10% a month), but there are some advanced mathematical pitfalls.

Yeah. the problem with retail traders is they don't understand investing as an art. They don't know how to value businesses. (Every 'investor' friend of mine doesn't even know what DCFs or intrinsic value is). These blind speculative activities are no different to gambling.This is why 99.98% of these people lose money in the long run

Splits don't really matter after a few weeks, you're right about that. This one matters even less because each of the underlying companies is a huge megacap with its own fundamentals. OTOH I think the extra liquidity will have a big impact on option prices.

How could somebody lose money on a covered call if the strike is at or above cost basis? Unless the underlying dumps?

[Anonymous No.29771497]

I joke about disabling the sell button same as the next anon, but opportunity cost is a loss.

These kinds of losses don't happen if you know what skew, IV crush, gamma hedging and similar things are. And I'd say gamma hedging is pretty fucking involved.

Missing out on a further pump isn't a real loss. Profit is profit. Under your logic every time I think about buying something but don't, take profits early, or don't know about something it's a loss. So we all have millions in imaginary losses then?

Secondly, "sell calls above cost basis" requires basic math and none of what you mentioned.

[Anonymous No.29774502]

>>29772258
There are big bid/ask spreads due to low liquidity, in other words there's not enough people buying and selling to achieve price discovery. If I want to sell calls there aren't enough customers and if I want to buy them I might have to overpay because there aren't enough sellers.
At a $600 pre-split price, the split reduces the amount of underlying represented by a contract on 100 shares from $60,000 to $4,000, I think that will vastly increase the number of people buying and selling SOXL options.

[Anonymous No.29774738]

>>29772909
>So we all have millions in imaginary losses then?
Actually, yes.
You should ideally be thining in terms of opportunity cost and NOT cost basis. Cost basis is irrelevant. So even though setting the strike above your basis is a good rule of thumb, and one I use too, it's basically a trap. The market decides whether setting your strike above your basis is profitable, not you.

[Anonymous No.29775135]

>>29774738
Selling above cost basis is profitable, period. If a retail trader covered call seller is so concerned about a run up, they can get an OTM call. The point is it's a straightforward strategy and not nearly as complicated as you all are making it.

>>29775135
Since you're technically correct though
I should have said
The market decides whether setting your strike above your basis is possible.
Imagine selling covered calls on XOM or something, it's not that hard to see why "strike above cost basis" only works when the market is willing to buy your calls.

[Anonymous No.29775696]

>>29775339
That's why you do covered calls on good quality growth stocks you would have invested in anyways. Not shitty pump and dumps.

If you're not comfortable holding you shouldn't be doing a covered call

[Anonymous No.29776007]

>>29775683
XOM is a good example though. If I was a wheeler I wouldn't have seen that coming.

There's no easy answer to the underlying dumping if you didn't have puts. You could try trading the covered put stock (selling your shares then selling the same strike put) to scalp extrinsic value if it dumps again. Or doing call credit spreads at a lower strike.
