What VIX Option Trades Predict

VIX trading patterns paint a cautious picture that is at odds with the fear gauge’s superficial message that investors aren’t concerned about stock risk.

With the VIX around 15—a level that suggests little to no fear about the future—investors have bought 155,000 VIX July $23 calls, 70,000 July $27 calls, and about 140,000 August $20 calls.

The trading patterns indicate that institutional investors are hedging their portfolios just in case the sto

Confused with the Adjusted Closing Price for Cash Dividend

I'm using a source where it doesn't calculate the Adjusted Closing Price, but it gives the value for the Cash Dividend e.g. date and value of the dividend given.

I read that I needed to just minus the dividend value at the same day as the closing price to get the Adjusted Closing Price.

My question is, do I minus the value of the dividend on the subsequent cl

Is their some good bargain plays in tech at this time

It’s hard to invest in tech as someone who has a small account so I’m always looking for cheaper tech plays that could make me money. Just recently I sold all my shares in MRVL. I had been holding them at an average of 37$ and sold at 62.

I’m trying to look for more tech plays. Do you guys have a recommendations for cheaper tech stocks.

Here are some tickers that I thought are interesting: PRFT, DOCU, YOU, FRSH, TOST, DLB, and NEWR

Thanks

The market has gone up over 30% since Michael Burry's infamous "Sell." tweet.

On the 31st January 2023, Michael Burry posted a very short tweet saying "Sell."Since then, the market has been on an absolute rampage, up over 30% in that time.

Whether he was early or wrong remains to be seen, although you could argue that they're the same thing. Regardless, it gives us another example of why you shouldn't try and time the market.

Personally, I find it hard to believe that somebody that intelligent could be TH

Why will inflation keep going down from here ?

Stock and houses prices are already recovering and consumer spending hasn't slowed down. The fed is already hinting at stopping hikes and were expecting more growth.

Am I missing something but I don't see any reason for inflation to fall if demand is going to ramp up ?

Thank you META! What a run it’s been on…

What a run from $80s to $280s… and some analysts are saying there is still big upside from here.

I was feeling pretty negative/depressed 6 months ago but kept buying as much Meta as I could. Wasn’t sure how it would end up but kept buying. Now the portfolio is breaking new all time highs every week.

I’m sure heavy Nvidia and Tesla investors are feeling good too.

Cheers everyone, let’s hope the run up can keep going!

Friend reported me Insider trading solicitation

Asked a friend about a company he works at. I own a few shares of his company and noticed it doing well so planning on taking my gains. Asked him if I should sell, he said he can’t tell me anything about it. Which I’m like ok but do you like it? No response.
