OT: Stock trading

It’s the valuation of the securities and their underlying businesses, not the impact of higher rates on the business itself. Higher interest rates generally mean declining valuations everything else being relatively stable.

Sure. Except the Dow is up. The companies that face real future challenges are trending up.

Driven mostly by financials I believe. My financials and BRK are up substantially the last week or so.

May just be an excuse to take some air out of tech. Who knows. Timing is a tough go....

Yeah, pru and unm got rockets strapped to their backs right now in my portfolio.
 
ARKG -4%, TSLA -5% Hope you only went with the TSLA puts! Well played if so.
TSLA puts: exercised some Mon open. Again, they were also bought as partial ARKK hedge. After selling chunk of TSLA >880, the tech & battery power innovator must go OOB for our $51 TSLA shares to lose. Expect downturns, maybe way down, and spikes; holding yet hedged in case Musk is committed and sh|t really hits the TSLA bed. I jest, I hope.

Unrelated ARKG: Added yesterday to initial shares bought at Fri's bottom. Avg 79, on par with Nov price. LT.
 
NFT's... is it me or is it plausible, that this medium could take off and change the market for collectibles, art, music etc. forever? It seems like they are starting to take off and I can't imagine that this isn't the future. I can be very wrong, I'm sure... I'm not a trader (I do have a couple thousand dollars in HBAR, ADA and LINK that I'm planning to hold as a possible lottery ticket someday)... but I'm fascinated with Blockchain technology and have been reading everything I could find for the last couple months.. just curious of the thoughts of those of you that know much more than I.
Stick to chainlink and all will be well.

Yes, that was the play! TSLA puts, wait, then ARKG shares. As I told you they'd move together and once again they're both up today. That was my point. Well played. I'm having a good day today too, much needed. Hope to get back to making money again soon.

Good for you and many others having a better day. Yet, an ongoing view 2 separate sectors won't run near 1:1 over time is maintained. Similarly, 2 clearly different objectives and results in Wood's 2 significantly different ARRK v ARKG portfolios are anticipated to be more apparent over time. My time-horizon, LT than that of others and particularly comfortable once breakeven's ensured. Not there with ARKG.

Glad I took some old energy profits yesterday, with a bit put back to work in perceived oversold US & non-US tech/security/innovation stocks/ETFs, some to infrastructure PAVE and perceived less pricey SU (Canadian oil), and MOST to an expanding conservative bench. Relief/momentum bounce feels good today. Next month, quarter, year TBD.

NFTs are here to stay. They are going to change quite a few industries.
As an example I have friends who are very successful rock stars- but the selling of their IP has not been a big money maker for them- they have to tour to make the big bucks. NFTs can change that and they will literally begin to make millions selling albums again.
The collectable market is also huge but I am leaving that for others- going to auctions ect.. is too time consuming and I wonder about them holding value when we are in leaner times- however it is a fascinating area to follow in the blockchain world.
 
What would be your strategy buying calls on SENS with a 3-19 strike of either $2.50 or $3? The $2.50 strike is .40 and the $3 dollar strike is .25 (both on the ask if not mistaken). After hours it was trading up to around $2.69 (after the CEO confirmation) so it looks like it will open higher putting the $2.50 in the money or above strike in the first 15 mins of trading.

Any trends on SENS at open Monday would be appreciated. Is a quick pullback putting the $2.50 strike back out of the money in morning trading a good possibility? I was thinking of buying four or five contracts.

I wear the Dexcom G6. It looks like the FDA is scheduled to start review on the Eversense 180 day sensor (approved in Europe as you know) on April 15th. I think CEO has lowered expectations per conference call on when approval should be granted. So under promise over perform could the plan? I need to check short interest. Do you know what it is?

It will be interesting to see how those large stake holders like Smith/Coyle who I think are locked in @.39 c (Smith is) will move with their shares and when (I need to read terms). Partner Ascensia is hiring a bunch of people for marketing purposes like you mentioned with the April target.

Thanks for any info relating to your DD. :) Hope everyone is doing well.

Best Always,
BDH

Go Huskies!
Sorry, I didn't see this until just now. I don't dabble in options trading, so I don't think I could give you advice on that front. I tend to buy companies that I think will do well long-term and hold them until I think I've found better opportunities. I apologize if that isn't the answer you're looking for!

I'm just happy you bought TSLA puts then waited to buy ARKG when they were both down. That's all I'm saying. because I knew they wouldn't diverge any day soon. Well done.

Thanks for the str8 up answer. Appreciated. I noticed Blackrock holds 26% of the short interest or more. It looks like Roche Holdings will be selling shares as the transition to Asencia takes place.

Competitor Dexcom traded @ 1.43 in 2008 before going over $400 this year. They owned the market though back then if not mistaken. Dexcom IPO was in 2005 for close to $12.00.
 
ABML at $2, seems like a good buy?
Another b.s. hit piece by a short has hurt the last couple of days. I averaged down yesterday but they seem to have a bright future if you're willing to hold a while. The company came right back out with a rebuttal to the claims.
