OT: Stock trading

'Seriously, or did you just stutter? Also, should have mentioned - I'd ideally like a Vanguard fund or ETF.
I throw my serious money into vanguard and dabble a little on the side. VTSAX gets the lion's share. Google bogleheads and the 3 fund strategy. I'm young(ish) enough that I go heavy on VTSAX. It's been very kind to me.
 
Any thoughts on a NASDAQ index fund? I've been tech heavy, and they've been hit pretty had.

Oddly, it's easy to find and S&P fund/ETF, but not so finding a nasdaq fund/ETF.

As mentioned earlier by a poster, QQQ - or the 3x leveraged fund TQQQ.

I hope Bitcoin goes to a dollar
I don’t care so much what Bitcoin does other than the fact that it impacts the price of other crypto. ETH is a pretty solid play in my opinion, especially because I bought more around $2350 and I think there’s more upside from here than downside
 
guy I follow on twitter thinks all this selling is about leverage and margin, not fear selling. Yet.

"all"? Nah, not all IMHO. Deleveraging/margin calls play a role, but other pretty obvious factors exist: inflation/interest rate increases (US, UK, EU likely to come), continuing pandemic impacts (disincentives for some people to return to work or seek work nationwide until some run out of money, current hospitalization rates still rising nationwide vs declining rates in some areas, e.g., Tri-state and MA, etc, Russia-caused instabilities, unclear mainland China instabilities, over bought US equities of all cap sizes across most sectors (less so in old energy, some financials, cyclicals), broad inexperienced trader reactions (cough, investors) and some more experienced LT investors alike, un-/underhedged investors jumping out, some institutions CYAing or capitulating, etc etc etc. Others, some nibbling. Just one broader opinion

In smallish, aggressive self-managed accounts this morning, bought 1st ETH and more LINK <14 thanks to some exercised SPY and QQQ put profits. Hah, they'll probably tank more ST. ;)
Do you trade options?

That was me. They've got a game changing photonic process that will allow for faster data transmission using less electricity. Anyone in a data center will tell you the "less electricity" part is huge. Those of us that have it are hoping to hear about sales. This is currently a no revenue business that is between R&D and commercialization.
Is it a buy at his time? Seems to have dropped significantl.

Everything has dropped significantly, unfortunately. In their case, their price went too high considering they haven't announced any deals yet. I would say do the research into their product and decide. I'm not a financial mind so I wouldn't feel comfortable saying it's a buy, but I whole heartedly believe in their product and that it will eventually be a game changer for data centers.
A snip from the 2nd link below. "Our technology is applicable to shorter reach datacenter operators, for whom decreasing power consumption is imperative to the bottom line of a facility."

crazy earnings season
Yeah man. Stocks that have reported are trading like crypto afterwards. Seeing things up or down 10-30% after earnings is probably unprecedented. I think trading is the way to go now, with all this volatility.
 
Buy and hold solves volatility nicely. Just have to take a deep breath on bad days and not get excited on good days. I knew I needed to buy more crypto a few weeks back but didn‘t.
