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.

This is the exact same mentality which is the foddor of wsb lore. Quick way to eradicate any gains youve made. OTM options are cheap for a reason. Your chances of profit are 5% or less due to 5 delta or worse.

They blew their load early in March 2020 from COLD-19. Practically nuked the already poor health of our economy for the health of some terminal 80 year olds. They CANNOT lockdown for COLD-21 even if it has Spanish Flu levels of virulence and pathogenicity unless we are willing to accept "transitory" 15%+ monthly inflation or experiment with negative interest rates.

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.

look at NowVertical (NOW)

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 hold shares in non-margin account.

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.

UPST isn't exactly a meme-pumper stonk.
