Because of coronal blast causing spectacular Aurora Borealis over most of Northern Hemisphere. Interesting nerdlinger fact: Southern Hemisphere Aurora are referred to as Aurora Austrialis.

Hopium though. Glad I never got into that shit. Hopiates lead you to the real rock bottom.

Interesting to see someone bring this up, but yeah it's fuckin gross. Everyone in my generation is a whiny antiwork bitch crying for institutions to save them and living off their OnlyFans and I'm just over here making money pressing buttons in my basement a couple times a day. Ship them all to China honestly.

And buying

Fire inbound.

Damn guess the biggest traders on Wall Street aren’t aware of that! You should tell them!

The fact that the majority of WSB is bearish is by far the most reason I have to be optimistic. Fuck your puts. The market is already down. You fuckers are late to the game and deserve to lose your shirts.

I saw some guy in another thread explain the phantom bullishness that seems to pervade the market even during shit like this. The gist of it was that the market is not a measure of the economy, but of institutional degeneracy and greed (or something like that but said much more intelligently). We'll keep going up because everyone wants to and market makers love making money. It makes a lot of sense when you think of it that way and I'm even going back on being a 🌈🐻 a little. Just until I close this put...

Market goes up over time. During the age of instant gratification, it can be difficult for lizard brains to understand the concept of dollar cost averaging.

Bullish!

fractals…. poof

ALWAYS BUY THE DIP. Dumb bears go broke

I think it’ll happen pretty quick to mid 20s

Just buy and hold for 10+ years

I really don't want to read all this. It hurts to read. Can I just buy 500 spy calls instead?

Eat my dongus you fuckin nerd.

ill take a stab

1. qt has been reversed
2. despite crazy amounts of QE inflation adjusted the S&P 500 is not that much higher than pre covid levels
3. there is no hard and fast reason why the fed will not implicitly accept a higher base line inflation rate if it is strategically expedient
4. whilst its impossible to say whats on banks' balance sheets, the lack of global fallout from the CS shitshow is telling, large US banks still think their deposits are sticky
5. ever since 2008, 2008 v 2 has been around the corner, ironically, 2008 v 2 is unlikely to happen until people forget about 2008

fundamentally if the USD moves towards a higher inflation tolerance regime we might see a systemic change in valuation considerations.

As long as you're buying a company that makes more money now than it did last quarter, what's to be concerned about?

No Bull no Bear Paradigm mode right now. Dan Peña, Antonio Brown type stuff right now. Let’s go!

With gambling problems

the market expects rate cuts of .5% by eoy fyi. simply said they don’t believe the fed and think the fed does a lot of tough talking to anchor low inflation expectation. inflation will drop to 3% by July. that is already pretty certain. it could possibly underperform even more.

Entire business models run on the fact that we’ve had low interest rates for over a decade. We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg on how this new environment will affect the economy. I think the rest of the year and the next will be full of ping-ponging between hope and fear. The market will chop around

Stonks

As long as rates keep increasing we will see the market drop. I dont think we can expect much more of a drop in earnings with another .25 raise and ive heard that might be all we need, so this could be near the bottom. Id imagine that for some companies it is the bottom, companies making money in this time is already outpacing the market even if the their price isnt reflective of that. Just buy good companies.

And buying
