This is interesting news. The release of a refreshed Model Y was supposed to mark the recovery of Tesla sales.... but offering 0% APY within weeks of release isn't exactly great news for the manufacturer.

Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants

Tesla is overstocked with Cybertrucks, the PS1 graphics-looking mobile monument to Elon’s deep lack of creativity.

I thought I noticed the Ys with an even uglier cybertruck styled nose in the last few months.

Anyway
 
In all seriousness though, is this volatility really a good thing? Or will we better off after the "dust settles"?

The volatility is a good thing - if you know what’s coming and you can play it (insider trading) cough, cough.
The volatility is a good thing if you’re looking for attractive entry or addition points or want to make short term trades.
The volatility is a bad thing in that it’s self inflicted.
The volatility is a bad thing as the market hates uncertainty
The volatility is a bad thing if you don’t have the stomach for these wild swings. i.e. fear, greed, and impulsive decisions making.

The “dust” won’t settle until the dotard (you know who) puts down the firehose of Chaos, is removed or chokes on a McDonalds cheese burger and some degree of normalcy returns.

Will we be better off after the dust settles? Well, IMHO we’ll be better off when some degree of normalcy and predictability returns. But really, nothing about the market even in the most “normal” of times is predictable.

Just look for solid companies and good entry points into them and hold on for the ride!

My 401K is up 3% today, very close to my all time high in December of last year.

Same here; as of today .. I'm only down 1% from the December high in my personal portfolio. There's at least 25% upside potential if they make it back and then some.

My latest casino hobby is buying and selling shitty penny stocks within a 10 minute window. It's intense. 🤪
 
Bought a few shares of CRWV last week $74 ... wish I would have bought more; it's already gained 40% since then.

:zwall:
 
The people making money in the market are the ones who know when the taco is happening. MTG has made a mint on insider info.

One word: Vaporware. Never gonna happen. I think I said that in 2017

Going nowhere fast and Never gonna happen are not the same thing. Never is a very strong, very permanent word. Just because you’ve been right for roughly 8 years doesn’t mean that it will not happen.

My Jr. High math teacher in the 1980’s told me I wouldn’t always have a calculator with me. :LOL:

No upside potential ? Or virtue signaling ? 🤔

Well, both. It probably has some upside but not enough to justify holding it any longer IMHO.

The current average target price is around 126.84. I sold today at 118.59 and I've held it for 1.8 years.

As far as virtue signaling. Most of the woke crap I really don't care about. However, I was really disappointed with the Snow White 2.0 fiasco.
And, going back further they have totally ruined the Star Wars franchise.

The bottom like for me is; it's time for me to get out of DIS and there are better places to invest that money.

Kathleen Kennedy is out this year so there might be a new hope.

Nevertheless the corporation being wholly reliant on resting on the laurels of old old franchises including capeshit as they have been for well over a decade seems to finally be crumbling. It’s crazy that there used to be theatrical space movies that weren’t Star Wars or Star Trek 25 years ago but there actually were! 😱

Only the following Star Wars content was the only good that came from Disney:

  • Rogue One
  • Clone Wars: Season 7 (Season 1-6 was under George Lucas)
  • Tales of the Jedi
  • Tales of the Empire
  • Bad Batch

I liked the first season of the Mandalorian and as a gearhead I admit I liked the Naboo fighter rebuild portion of the book of Boba Fett(which had nothing to do with Boba Fett). A few friends and family insist I’d like Andor (because I hate the good side/dark side Jedi/Sith shit) so I’m reserving judgement on that series until they give me their Disney+ password lol

I liked Rogue One and didn’t hate Solo… until the end when a certain disemboweled and obviously erstwhile dead facetatted cameo showed up which I guess was related to the Clone Wars cartoon I won’t spoil in name… but ugh😆 That was the last one I saw in theaters.

Haven't seen it, probably never will .. along with the rest of those live action remakes.



They both have the similar market cap and PE ratios .. except Hood didn't make it to the SP500. 🤔



I see what you did there. 🤭

Longevity wise I like HOOD over COIN, coinbase is one dimensional , only in crypto, robinhood has crypto, regular stocks, and their high yield savings account, which you have to pay a subscription for.
