@amitisinvesting He’s right though, I’ve had faith for over a year….that volatility will be high as long as he is president 😂

well Mr. President, you are now getting a lower stock market and higher oil prices today 😂

I’m shorting uvix every 25 cents it goes up. Before April last year uvix bottomed around $25 and went up over $100 then bottomed at $5.23, that’s the nav decay factor. Granted, uvix can still double from here so thats why im going reverse DCA on shorting and also have calls to profit from more volatility short term. Portfolio looks bad the more the market drops but I know eventually this will pay off big.

E*Trade just lowered the rate

The borrow rate on $uvix is only 5% to short on E*Trade. As long as we don’t get into a world war, I would bet any amount of money uvix will be under $5 by end of year, but more likely within 1-2 months. Worst case vix stays elevated all year but even if it breaks a record for most days over 20, it will still eventually drop and you’ll make 50% on the uvix downturn without having to time it with options. There’s never a 100% guarantee in investment but this is pretty damn close. Also, you can sell short term covered calls on uvix since the premium is so high or buy calls on uvix to profit on the volatility, knowing your downside is covered. CC’s will easily cover the borrow rate even if selling leaps. $SVIX also works for this strategy because it will go back up; it’s only 1x but don’t have to have timing or pay borrow fees. I got it under $10 last April but I just found it at the time and was testing it out. I’m going big on this strategy now. @stevenfiorillo this will help you win the challenge.

I don’t like the latest $TSLA update. On FSD on 2 lane freeway with very little cars on the road and my Tesla is switching lanes every minute, sometimes 4 times a minute. On standard setting and going 75, no reason most the time.

@PaperGainsInc Im in! I just need a couple knee braces, some icy hot, painkillers, and a whirlpool nightly.

US Army has changed the max enlistment age from 34 to 42

This is what happens when accidentally putting the limit price into the quantity box after hours 🤦‍♂️. I got so used to trading in robinhood. I sold when I noticed negative cash available, maybe should have kept it a few hours 😂

Crusoe is a private company supplying long term batteries to data centers. This will be huge as reliance on AI increases which requires redundancy against power outages or network disruptions. Good company to look into to get in early.

@Sam_Badawi I almost started a private LLC to invest in Anduril OpenAI Anthropic and Discord and spacex last July. I had the investors interested but needed someone with the right license to facilitate it. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

$VCX fund that includes 20% of Anthropic, 18% of Databricks, Anduril, and OpenAI is up over 300% in a month. Trading has been halted today! Crazy!

@Kross_Roads I just bought puts on VG for 4/2 instead of selling. Also thanks for the tip yesterday on teradyne during your stream. I sold it at 326, don’t want to be greedy. Will redo my limit buy order though.

$VG briefly crossed into the $17's today. They inked another agreement for 5 years and 1.5 MTPA, and several firms have upgraded Venture Global over the last week, noting material changes that will persist even if the Hormuz situation is resolved soon. While I hadn't planned to take gains just yet, I changed my mind and sold 20% of my LEAPs, which have given me a 4x. Locking in a profit and having some cash in the current environment feels right here.

@stevenfiorillo Figured you needed something to wash it down 😂. I wish gemini could add to a previous video but it doesn't do that.... yet.

@stevenfiorillo Just needs some inspirational montage background music like eye of the tiger intro.

OMG this would be incredible

@amitisinvesting It feels like seasons in a tv show with unpredictable twists and we’re in the middle of season 2. Everyone wants to know what happens but we can’t binge watch it because episodes are released monthly.

i think we all knew we were in for a wild 4 years when Trump got elected but this has been crazy it feels like we are in a movie and the script is writing itself daily on Truth Social every new addition to the script adds or subtracts a few trillion 😂 greatest show on earth

The marines are on the way with tanks. He likely won’t strike energy because the new plan is take over the coast to open the strait. That will be the victory be claims since regime change isn’t going to work. Good news for future outlook of oil prices depending on what Iran does in retaliation, but I doubt the war is over anytime soon and the political consequences of boots on the ground will lose GOP seats. Also need the SPY to break 667 resistance. The trend lines I drew last week hit perfectly.

TRUMP: THE US IS VERY WILLING TO MAKE A DEAL WITH IRAN S&P up 2% for the first time in a long time... we need to hold these levels but based on how he's talking, it does seem like he wants to find an offramp soon then again, any headline with the war escalating will make the market not believe him

@Sam_Badawi I had puts on 2x bitcoin etf that expired yesterday 🤦‍♂️

$BTC now in the $68k range

@amitisinvesting This is the best way to argue against 24/7 trading. So happy market is closed right now 😂

TRUMP: IRAN HAS 48 HOURS TO OPEN THE STRAIT OR WE WILL OBLITERATE THEIR POWER PLANTS oh boy

Why don’t the airlines pay TSA agents until government gets a deal done and then airlines reimbursed? I’d even donate a hour of TSA wages for an extra employee to show up, as I’m sure many people would.

@amitisinvesting National awkward moment day was yesterday

TRUMP ON THE IRAN SURPRISE ATTACK: "Who knows better about surprises than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?" bro 💀

I agree. It may help some situations where companies can use a quarter adjusting without worrying about what it will do to stock on quarterly report, but not worth the trade off. Market doesn’t like uncertainty and will have a lot more volatility around earnings. Plus less commissions to brokerages from decreased trading volume due to 2 less quarterly reports.

If the @SECGov @SECPaulAtkins proposes bi-annual reporting rather than quarterly for publicly traded companies it would be detrimental for investors. The quarterly reporting framework was strengthened after past corporate scandals because less frequent disclosure enabled fraud and abuse. Loosening these requirements is the opposite of the SEC's core mission of protecting investors and maintaining fair, orderly markets. This would represent a significant step backward for investor protection. Keep in mind these are public companies that shareholders are technically owners of, regardless of how small a percentage their shares represent. Stretching that window from 3 months to 6 months means shareholders are making decisions based on stale information while insiders continue to have real-time visibility into performance. This would widen the information gap between Wall Street and Main Street. Institutional investors have the resources to track companies through alternative data and private conversations with management. Retail investors rely heavily on official filings. Moving to semi-annual reporting concentrates critical information into fewer hands, which is the exact opposite of what is needed. For companies in distress, 6 months is too long to hide deteriorating fundamentals. Quarterly reports act as a regular accountability checkpoint. A company burning through cash, losing key customers, or taking on unsustainable debt would have an extra three months to obscure those problems, potentially allowing management to offload shares or restructure compensation before bad news becomes public. This could create increased levels of volitility in the market. When material information is bottled up for 6 months instead of 3, the eventual release can trigger sharper price swings. More frequent reporting smooths out the flow of information and allows markets to price risk incrementally rather than in sudden lurches. The reality is that the executive team works for all shareholders, not just institutional holders such as BlackRock or Vanguard. We’re seeing some individuals champion this idea as they are claiming that quarterly reporting takes away from actually running the company and adds unwanted costs, especially in compliance. My push back on these ideas is that well-run companies already maintain internal monthly and weekly financials. The executive teams know the companies inside and out and should be able to talk through an earnings call with their eyes closed. The marginal cost of putting together a quarterly report for shareholders every 90 days is insignificant considering the earnings expansion we have witnessed throughout the S&P 500. And short-termism is driven by incentive structures and compensation design, not by the cadence of disclosure. The bottom line is that this proposal would prioritize corporate convenience over investor rights. Transparency isn't a burden but rather the foundation of market confidence. Weakening it benefits the people who already have the most information and disadvantages those who have the least. This is the exact opposite of what the SEC should be concerned with. @SecScottBessent @JohnReedStark @SenWarren @ewarren @FinancialCmte @RepAnnWagner @PeteSessions @BradSherman @RepGregoryMeeks @repdavidscott @unusual_whales @KobeissiLetter @amitisinvesting @joecarlsonshow @StockMKTNewz
