@MichaelAArouet Has anyone been to Europe/russia? I’ve spent a lot of time in both and Russia would easily roll Europe especially now that Europe is divided and extremely PC these days unless USA intervenes like the did with ukraine.

As much as Russia would celebrate it, Trump doesn’t have the authority to withdraw from NATO. The Senate’s two-thirds approval is needed. There are enough responsible adult senators, not compromised by Russia, to prevent that from happening.

@TJTheWheelDeal @Keithdavis85 Can you please elaborate this more with real numbers?

@Keithdavis85 I'm going to roll these naked calls over and over and over until I match the expiration dates and turn it into a strangle. The market kicks our ass often. When you are in a position to kick back, TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE!

Up over $1M on $PLTR naked calls. What will the hater say now? I’ll keep posting this trade over and over and over and over and over again until it makes you sick to you stomach that you only watched and didn’t participate lol There are players and there are spectators. Which one are you? A player or just a spectator with a big mouth and all the right answers?!

@DesireeAmerica4 Airbnb needs to charge the guest that pad for damages and extra guests but they literally charge them nothing so guests face no consequences for this. This would completely solve these illegal party issues and it’s so fucking stupid airbnb does this.

An Airbnb host in Coachella agreed to rent their home to a group of 16 people. ​Then the Ring camera went off. ​Over 70 kids were caught pouring out of the driveway after the property manager showed up to shut down a massive, unauthorized rager. ​The internet is completely divided. ​Half say these kids should face criminal trespassing charges and massive fines for lying and risking someone's property. ​The other half say Airbnb investors are destroying local housing markets and deserve exactly what they get.

@OGshoots Paper trade until you’re profitable with 3:1 rr and stick to your trading plan 100% of the time for at least 6 months. Please. I lost so much time money and stress for years that could have all been avoided if I just did that.

I’m a 24 year old trader and have lost the majority of my net worth 8 times over. Give me some advice, not the generic “take profits” stuff either.

@ArrogantNBlack Look up their resumes, test scores, and post them compared to yours

These are not DOGE “kids”. These are fully functioning grown men with agency. They made a choice to serve in a capacity to remove jobs, contracts, and services for anyone not white! They were highly unqualified and the very definition of handpicked, merit-less, and privileged.

@allenanalysis If there’s such tremendous value in this then the free market will undertake or maybe you should.

OMG, SHUT DOWN DOGE: A DOGE official in his 20s testified today that he canceled federal research grants based on personal judgment. No peer review. No subject matter expertise. No formal process. Just him. And books he had read. He flagged a grant studying HIV in prisons during the Reagan and Clinton era — decades of academic research — as “one of the craziest” because it mentioned LGBTQ in the description. He flagged a grant examining the military service experiences of Black, Native American, female, and immigrant veterans as crazy. His qualification for making these calls: “A person can have enough judgment from reading books.” He was then asked if he regretted cutting programs that may have led to people dying. “No.” Did DOGE reduce the deficit? “No.” A person in their 20s. Reading books. Canceling peer-reviewed academic research. Deciding what knowledge the American government is allowed to fund. No experience. No regret. No results. Under oath.

My CEO has a lot battle scars. After selling PayPal to eBay, he netted $180 million and then bet it ALL. 1/ $100 million into SpaceX 2/ $70 million into Tesla Then 2008 hit him hard. Three rockets blew up. Tesla was bleeding $ millions every month in the financial crisis. He was getting divorced and basically broke and in debt. He woke up the Sunday before Christmas thinking he was on the verge of a nervous breakdown… “…it seemed pretty dark.” But the fourth Falcon rocket finally made it to orbit, which if it wasn’t successful, SpaceX would go bankrupt. Soon after, NASA called with a $1.6 billion contract. Elon couldn’t even hold the phone… just a simple “I love you guys!” And Tesla investors closed a round on Christmas Eve. He got SpaceX and Tesla out of hell by the skin of their teeth. Those battle scars built the future we’re living in today. This is a reminder to NEVER give up.

@khanadan99 You POS‘s are going to ruin the future when AI starts getting good. No one will be able to tell anything and we’ll just have to blindly rely on our governments which is worst case scenario. This sucks.

Buildings in Tel Aviv are getting BLASTED. About 200 israeli casualties tonight alone.۔۔۔۔

@sspencer_smb Can you provide more detail of when you decide to short the put? Do you wait for a big down move close to 80 5 days out? Or do you look for certain theta? Or is it something else? I have similar ideas just seem to time it too early

one way i like to use put contracts: 1) i have an idea of what price i want to be long a stock 2) if volatility spikes i will short puts with a strike at or near that price level 3) if the stock closes below my strike i'm long w/ a great basis.

@MarcGravely Using the navy to make money. Gotta love it 😂

Yesterday, I explained how seven insurance firms in London shut down one-fifth of the world's oil supply. Today, Trump may have just made the most aggressive sovereign insurance play in modern history. Here's what happened and why it matters: Trump ordered the U.S. Development Finance Corporation to immediately offer political risk insurance and guarantees to all maritime trade through the Gulf. Especially energy. Backed by Navy escorts if needed. Read that through the lens of what I described yesterday. The Strait didn't close because of missiles. It closed because the insurance market collapsed. P&I clubs pulled coverage, reinsurers withdrew, and the entire commercial shipping architecture froze. This move doesn't address the military problem. It addresses the actuarial one. The DFC is stepping into the void that Lloyd's and the London reinsurance market created when they pulled out. The U.S. government is effectively saying: we will underwrite what the private market won't. No sovereign has attempted to replace the global marine war risk market in real time during an active conflict. Here's why the structural implications are significant: 1. It challenges Lloyd's dominance. For centuries, London has been the center of gravity for marine insurance. Lloyd's and its reinsurers controlled pricing, terms, and risk appetite for global shipping. That concentration is exactly what made the actuarial blockade possible. A handful of firms in one city froze global oil flows. The DFC offering competitive political risk coverage to all shipping lines is a direct challenge to that architecture. If American-backed insurance proves cheaper and more reliable during crises, shippers may not return to London when the dust settles. 2. It breaks the actuarial blockade. I said yesterday that China has massive leverage over Iran but zero leverage over Lloyd's. The same was true of every oil-producing and oil-consuming nation watching their economies choke. This goes around the insurance market entirely. If the DFC covers the voyage and the Navy escorts the tanker, the ships sail. Oil flows. The spreadsheet blockade breaks. 3. It redirects billions in premium revenue. War risk premiums in the Gulf are currently running at extreme multiples — 3× to 5× pre-conflict rates. Those premiums were flowing to London reinsurers who then pulled coverage anyway. Now those premiums flow to Washington. At rates the DFC can set below the panicked London market, while still generating substantial returns. The same shippers get cheaper coverage. The revenue just changes continents. 4. It creates a chokepoint within the chokepoint. The Strait of Hormuz is already the world's most critical energy bottleneck. If the U.S. is both insurer and naval escort, America controls access at two levels: physical security and financial coverage. No other nation can replicate that. You need the world's dominant navy and a sovereign balance sheet large enough to backstop the risk. Only one country has both. 5. It reassures every stakeholder simultaneously. Gulf producers were watching exports freeze. Asian and European consumers were watching energy prices spike. Both feared the Iran campaign would wreck their economies. One announcement addressed all of them: your oil will move, your ships will be covered, and the rates will be reasonable. Yesterday I described a system with no TARP, no Fed equivalent, no backstop at global scale. This may be the first attempt to build one in real time, during the crisis itself. The actuarial blockade just met a sovereign counterparty.

@TJTheWheelDeal @grok Can you explain why these levels and why now?

Nothing to see here:) @Grok explain this trade to them like they are children or a golden retreiver lol

@Mr_Derivatives Within the next five years, all markets have said they’re going towards 24 seven trading. They say weekends are coming next.

I’m just gonna say what everyone else is thinking. There has got to be a better way to have some kind of stock weekend futures/indication than Weekend IG, Crypto markets, and Hyperliquid. Like something more official ish. Agreed?

@djbowzer @AgedRibEye @WallStreetMav Can you please link me to your support showing that Iran has no nukes or enriched uranium? I’m not being argumentative or attacking you at all. I’m genuinely curious because I’ve read many reports showing from many different sources, including none American that they have it

@AgedRibEye @WallStreetMav Iran doesn't have nukes. they have never tried to have nukes. their religion says they cant have nukes. I get that u fall for ever lie of propaganda but at some point u have to learn to research stuff urself

BREAKING: Israel and the United States have conducted massive joint strikes against Iran. Early reports indicate that the joint operation targeted the residence of the Ayatollah Khomeini himself and that this is only the first part in a series of strikes. We appear to be going for regime change. Follow: @WallStreetMav

@truthstreamnews @realDonaldTrump Do you think the USA should do nothing and allow Iran to create nukes? If yes, what would your plan be? Please respond

@mitchellvii Anything but stop spending so much money

NYC just got slammed with the bill they voted for - Mayor Mamdani threatening to raid retiree funds and rainy day reserves while hiking property taxes 9.5%. He's calling it a "last resort" if Albany won't tax the rich more to close the gap. But raiding retiree health benefits? That's low even for socialists. $980 million from rainy day fund this year, $229 million from Retiree Health Trust next. Hardworking retirees get screwed while spending keeps rolling. This is peak blue-city logic: elect radicals, blow the budget, then make middle-class homeowners foot the bill. Furious New Yorkers are waking up fast. You wanted change? Here's your change - higher taxes and raided savings. Trump called it, now it's happening.

$ddog should be guiding higher instead of down… not good.
