I canā€™t stand Dave Portnoy. But I gotta say, this post hits

Ruh-rohā€¦

Basically, it means thereā€™s no more cash to buy. Institutional managers are praying what they already have on the books continue to go up then bail before everyone else does

If Nvidia holds where it is right now at the open tomorrow morning the IV crush on both call & put options is going to be spectacular #NVDA #options #NQ #QQQ

Tesla is already a goner. If the street doesnā€™t like what comes out of Jensen Huangā€™s mouth later today during Nvidiaā€™s earnings call this market could go into free fall. Anything positive will only stanch the bleeding šŸ©øthat has happened over the last several days. #NVDA #TSLA

If any of you bozos are trading the Nvidia earnings remember itā€™s not only what they have already earned but the guidance going forward. #NVDA #NQ #NASDAQ #QQQ

2 different short calls in $APP this morning and it's trading < $350 it was >$525 a week ago easy come easy go

Nvidia earnings day should be made into a national holiday. #NVDA

Courtesy of Brian Krassenstein, if you had invested $13,000 in Melania Trumpā€™s crypto scheme just a month ago, your balance is now $990. LOL šŸ˜‚

There are so many macro factors that are pressing buttons in this market right now. Valuation is only one of them but itā€™s a huge component. Iā€™ve said it before and Iā€™ll say it again: everything is expensive, trading at multiples WAAAAY above historical averages even compared to past bull markets

Just a far-out opinion here but I feel like Michael Saylor and his company Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) is going to use GameStop as a surrogate for more Bitcoin buying. Disclaimer: I hate both companies #MSTR #GME #BTC

I need people to play attention to this šŸ‘‡ and to what I said on Thursday www.marketplace.org/2025/02/13/t... The destruction of politics is coming for the economy

Is it me or are the sports-related posts on Bluesky getting more and more engaging? Iā€™m really digging it

PPI: coming in a little hot Markets: lol, I spit in your face

CPI: coming in a little hot Markets: screw you

Maddow: If you don't have Bluesky yet, I recommend it. It is a social media network that doesn't make me want to stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork

The short positions on Ethereum is unlike anything Iā€™ve seen recently in crypto. Disclaimer: I do not trade or invest in any cryptocurrency. None. But Iā€™m watching what ends up happening with ETH, if anything at all šŸæ.

Iā€™m not going to call MicroStrategy a scam just yet until everyone figures out if itā€™s a fund, a (growth) stock, a store of value, or a Ponzi. They use convertibles, preferreds and other derivatives to buy more Bitcoinā€”this works until it doesnā€™t. #MSTR #BTC

Luka Doncic is still trending? Let's get over it, people. #buyingourwaytoachampionship

Nvidiaā€¦

Where we are right nowā€¦

Recent interview with Stephen Diggle, who runs the hedge fund Vulpes Investmentā€”he says the systemic risk the markets face today has not been this heightened since the financial crisis of 2008. Does that portend a pending crisis? No. What that does mean is donā€™t catch yourself with your pants down.

PATTERSON: ā€œ.. . The bond market is telling us something about the dawn of the second Trump presidency, and itā€™s not pretty. .. Thereā€™s probably going to be more inflation.ā€ @nytopinion.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/01/29/o...

I usually leave the politics to the many, MANY others here but I will say this about the tariffs from a purely economic and business standpoint: stupid, simply stupid

If you need a guide to where we are in the tariff messā€¦

The smart money is cutting back their equity exposure. Should you?

I sure hope a new generation of listeners catch on with Marianne Faithfull. Her beautiful voice will be missed. youtu.be/-efIjZ_1yQg?...

Reading articles referencing Jevons paradox and how it may apply to the current and future AI environment after the DeepSeek advancements en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_...

A little-known artificial intelligence lab out of China has ignited panic throughout Silicon Valley after releasing AI models that can outperform Americaā€™s best despite being built more cheaply and with less-powerful chips. Watch the full video here ā¬‡ļø.

DeepSeekā€”remember, in this day and age there is always a disrupter amongst disrupters. Today proved that. #NQ #QQQ #NVDA #META #ORCL #GOOG #MSFT

Futures before Monday open: šŸ©ø

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills are not going to have a better chance at going all the way than at this moment. I hope they win today. #NFL #BuffaloBills #JoshAllen

As someone whoā€™s from the Gulf Coast this is an amazing sight and one I donā€™t think Iā€™ll ever see again in my lifetime

Iā€™m not a fan of CZ. Binance for years has facilitated transactions that run the gamut from narcotics distribution, human trafficking, tax evasion, etc and thatā€™s just the tip of the iceberg. But Iā€™m not going to argue that public spending should be placed on the blockchain. Heā€™s correct here.

The world all of us Americans have lived in is one whereā€”despite our griping & not awesome moments & political narrativesā€”the United States has been an engine of innovation, prosperity, security, human progress But if you take out enough screws, it will lurch to a halt & not be easy to resurrect /1

Trump: ā€œdrill baby drillā€ Oil Companies: ā€œno baby noā€

Pete Carroll and the Raiders? First thought was oil and water. But maybeā€¦just maybeā€¦ (disclosure: Iā€™m not a Raider fan)
