Boiler Room: The Official Stock Market Discussion

[Futuristic Eskimo]

If you think a weak GDP print is going to affect this market you havent been paying attention for the last few years...

2.6% is still a solid print

It is. I should've rephrased that to "gdp missing estimates."

ITC ruled against Boeing in a trade dispute. Im surprised, i dont really know anything about the ITC but i thought they'd be packed with protectionist Trump cronies. Didn't really move the stock, but Trump has been getting in a pissing match with Canada over this (airplane sales).

AMZN seems to have a very strong influence in the way the market moves.

50 Cent (nickname for an anonymous trader) is a big buyer of March 24 Vix calls. Why is Bloomberg covering this guy?

Edit: apparently he's the biggest player in vix options

How can they tell that this is the same player on these trades?

When i looked him up, even in the article they admitted that it was hard for them to tell exactly if it's the same guy or not.

Edit: it seems to be they're just pegging it on a guy who likes to buy options when they cost around 50 cents. He bought 50,000 march calls for 49 cents today. So could be totally different people.

I'm going to have to see the big names come down before i do that. Amazon keeps having good prints then I'm good with this market.

Amazon is through the ficking roof. How much higher can it go?

If i had to pick a company to hit a trillion dollar market cap first...i would pick them or google. Im limiting that to American companies.

I was thinking about this over the weekend.

Going to continue to invest in the market, but I will decrease the money at risk in my positions. For example, if I usually risk $100 per trade, I am going to only risk $50 per trade now.

If I had a sizable position in TSLA I wouldn't know how to take this Elon Musk flamethrower thing.
