W/e. I'm rolling at 75.7% gains over the last 12mn in one of my high-5-fig no-margin accounts.
I can take a dip.
Reps to AMD Boyz. I argued against it earlier this month, I was wrong.

Contracts were only like $0.30 or so strikes 300 out of the money since it was on a thursday. Couldve also bought a call to play a straggle for a little more but well worth the risk.

Mask mandates are returning, i'm certain of it. What i'm not sure of is if the government will have the balls to lockdown again. Things would get downright ugly.

Wouldn't be surprised if they locked down again cuz they want America to fail tho.

Just finished reading my favorite quarterly letter from a Canadian investment firm.
CLIFFS:
there's still value in buying SHOP, and NVEI right now.
I'm going in for some SHOP this week, and see about NVEI as well.
both are still 'founder=CEO', showing obscene revenue growth, and positive net incomes on most recent quarterly earnings.
The company’s software offering is similar to the software provided by Palantir. The difference is that while Palantir focuses on enterprise customers, NowVertical focuses on smaller companies.

I'm not too familiar with the company but based on what their earnings were like the past two quarters seems like it's a pretty good play, low risk potential high yield. The way I see it this ticker makes pretty big moves in either direction, would rather lose the value of a couple call contracts rather than shares.
I was debating whether to pay a bit more premium early this coming week and buy the calls to anticipate the contract value rising prior to earnings if there is a run up, otherwise I would end up paying a similar amount right before earnings I think. Then again, theta is a factor too. Hm I'll probably end up buying late next week
Edit: I'm surprised the open interest volume near earnings is so low, what gives?

I will watch it, and if it goes absolutely bananas ($240+) I might sell off half of my holdings.
Otherwise, just vanilla holding like a borecel.

PLTR on the other hand has way more volume around the same time frame (I believe both their earnings are forecasted for the 10th).

Not exactly informed investors who look at "earnings"
