@Stephanie_Link @BeckyQuick @SquawkCNBC Always live your insight. Thank you. I’ll be looking at selling some puts on MS.

Always fun to talk with @BeckyQuick @SquawkCNBC especially when it’s a bit contrarian.

@pRisCiLLaG8909 @DefiyantlyFree Got it. Thanks for the insight!

@GP_Ut_Prosim @DefiyantlyFree His term is about to be up and can’t run again, unfortunately. We’d keep him forever if we could. Byron is no desantis tho. Collins is the one we want. He’s the closest we’re gonna get.

Byron Donalds will be Governor of Florida. Ken Paxton will be in the Senate. And Talrico and Fishbeck can hang out in a giant horseshoe.

@JoeBrunoWSOC9 Most mobile phone plans have UNLIMITED calling......racking up that much money on a cell phone is not calling.....it's something else......

James Mitchell has been around awhile. He was elected to Charlotte City Council in 1999. His first controversy? Likely this September 2000 Charlotte Observer article highlighting he and Patrick Cannon's city cell phone bills

@jschultzf3 I have a fever.....and the only prescription is more short puts!

The Short Put is my FAVORITE strategy for two simple reasons. IF THE STOCK IS DOWN: ✅ Volatility likely high ✅ Premium collected juicy ✅ Play for contrarian move higher IF THE STOCK IS UP: ✅ Buying stock at tippity top can be 😬 ✅ SP gives you plenty of buffer ✅ Better entry if you want to hold L/T Truly the Swiss Army knife of options strategies.

@stockmom Yeah and Iran all tells the truth.

🚨Breaking: Iranian state media says that even if the number of ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz will increase to normal levels, it will remain under Iranian management‼️

@jschultzf3 Short premium is life changing.

Short premium introduces a strategic component that cannot be duplicated anywhere else in the financial markets:  Making money without being directionally correct. Building a natural buffer into your positions. Diversifying your profit potential in unmatched ways. Each of which begins to greatly differentiate any portfolio with options from a portfolio without options. The pricing mechanisms for options involve variables that share little to no relationship with the stock prices themselves. Of course, the stock price does play a big role, and it will impact your position. But the simple fact that it is not the ONLY driver of P/L is wild. So it will not be all that uncommon to have situations where the underlying stock might not be cooperating, but your option strategy continues to work. Is there another product/strategy/asset that gives you the same flexibility? I can't think of one.

@baker_girlie Read the owner's manual.

How did I not know this about my dishwasher. I didn’t know it could tip the tray. Did you know your dishwasher could do this? Now I am on the hunt to find out everything my dishwasher can do.

@BillAckman $PSUS Do you anticipate options being available to trade on PSUS and if so, when? Thank you.

@CynicalPublius It's not called the "CONGRESSIONAL" Medal of Honor. It is the "Medal of Honor".

I was just re-watching "Midway" (the new Woody Harrelson version, not the old Charlton Heston version). Dick Best sank two Japanese aircraft carriers at Midway. How was he not awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor?

@stockmom Done

Hey Fam. Can you report this impersonator? They reach out to my followers offering copy trading and try to scam them out of money. My biggest fear is that someone gets scammed and loses their hard-earned money. 🙏🏼

@stockmom The picture I posted is of Otto, our male Maine Coon that passed away in 2023. He was like a little dog!

@GP_Ut_Prosim Beautiful. Reminds me of my Pippi. That's a girl correct?

Look at that face. Chance 😻

@SullyCNBC ATL

Quick u-turn and landing here. Where am I?

@stockmom I bought MAY15 $350 puts. Earnings will be great, but companies are absolutely getting punished in this market unless they are "super fantastic wonderfully surprisingly awesome".

@compound248 @andrewrsorkin @stockmom check this out about GME and ebay.....WOW

The $GME proposed acquisition of $EBAY is even dumber than it sounds, which is why he refused to answer @andrewrsorkin's basic questions this am. To start, the ACTUAL proposal is not GME acquiring EBAY: GME is the seller, not the buyer. Ryan Cohen is asking eBay to acquire GME, fire eBay's CEO, and let Ryan run the business. Onto the dumbness of the proposal details: The idea is 50% cash / 50% stock for roughly $56 billion of consideration to eBay. Pundits note GME's ~$11.1B market cap and ~$9B of existing cash. BUT THAT DOUBLE-COUNTS. Of GME's ~$11.1B market cap, ~$9B IS THE CASH. Or 81% of the market cap. If I have a company worth $110 with $90 of net cash, it's not worth $180: the cash is worth $90, and the company ex-cash is worth $20 = $110. As shown below, if GME pays eBay the ~$9B in existing cash, the remaining market cap (from eBay's perspective) is ~$2.1B. GME shares are worth ~$5/share ex cash. To issue $28 billion of GME shares, it has to issue ~5.6B of new shares to eBay (vs 590B FD GME shares today), giving eBay 90%+ of the post-deal shares (+ $28 billion of cash to eBay owners). To be clear, GME is proposing that eBay acquire GME, with GME owning 10% of the CombinedCo. In 2026, eBay is expected to generate $2.8B of free cash flow vs $500 mm by GameStop (15% of combinedco). eBay revenue is expected to GROW 9% in 2026 while GME's is expected to shrink 1% (and has shrunk >40% in 5 years). So eBay brings 85% of the cash flow and is growing, and gets 90% of a newco that is dragged down by GameStop's declining revenue. To compensate for owning a lower quality CombinedCo, it levers up and pays legacy eBay $62/share in cash. However, that cash is financed by the quality of eBay's business, not GameStop. eBay doesn't need GameStop to recap its existing business - it could do so and continue to own 100% of the better business. Ultimately, this is GME attempting to swap into a better business by selling itself to eBay, not vice versa. Everyone knows this deal won't happen, Ryan Cohen included.

@mattvanswol @Cernovich Evil roams the earth.

@Cernovich I never really believed in demons until I saw the videos of people celebrating after Charlie was murdered. I think about those videos a lot. Truly the most vile, evil, disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life. They didn’t even try to hide their glee. Pure evil incarnate.

The Sunday after Charlie Kirk was murdered, churches were full. We started taking our kids. I read somewhere that the demonic attacks intensify. We had some trippy things. One weekend, the car wouldn’t start. Kids had left car headlights on - a first. Strange coincidence maybe.

@ericmmatheny The high cost of low living.

Spirit was bound to fail. Budget airline known for hidden fees. When you add up all the hidden charges, you might as well purchase a ticket on a non-budget airline. Also, factor in the plethora of fights at the gates and just a general classless feel to the whole experience…

@stockmom I also worked for LOW for 10 years in supply chain....both are money printers....and HD is the 800lb gorilla.

@GP_Ut_Prosim Nice thesis!

🔫Gun to head, you can only hold one single stock, not an ETF for the rest of your life, what would it be? 🤔

@stockmom Housing will always be a "need" for society and people will always be moving/remodeling/etc. HD is an extremely well run retailer with 60+ % coming from Pro biz. Hard business to lose to online-only competition. (also big fan of LOW)

@GP_Ut_Prosim Why?
