Economy stonks v8, the wrath of icahn

I feel better that is oddly came back to life.

Regret not closing the short I put on AH yesterday on Tesla. Had a 2% gain but didn't lock it.
Thank god I bought an offsetting amount of cruise and spirit aerosystems and had shorted sportsbetting.

CLVS ends up down 7%. Good grief.

TESLA is still going nuts but surely this run has to end soon. now trading at +1000 P/E.

I may pick up SHLL before the merger providing the stock drops to 30-35

I'm going to start shorting Tesla based on the circular folly that people who already own fractional shares are the ones buying shares and calls thinking other people (who are them) are gonna suddenly be buying post split.

And yeah CLVS is just a total roulette stock lol

how do you short a high-priced stock like TSLA? typically i would buy puts but even 1 contract is through the roof.

I'm literally shorting the equity straight out because I am playing with big boy bets.
But hey good news, after the split it will be cheaper to short too lol

Wow I had been looking at AIMT again as a bottom feed play and mentioned it in last thread as example of how you can;t buy when news is priced in but after it sells off or way early....well they just got bought out for 250% by Nestle lol. (didn't have any)

Shorting Tesla right before they release their next earnings report should be easy money. By now Elon must be fresh out of accounting tricks.

Having said that, I don't know if the average Tesla investor even cares about profitability.

TESLA investors dont even know what profit means.

I've thought about shorting Tesla 10 times in last year....i would have been wrong every time

I betting that time is right around the corner. The insane part is I think it COULD have another 10% upside, but I see it collapsing hard at 500.

all the broker websites seem to be shitty the bed right now.

 

[rob mafia]

well, i'm fucked.

had a bunch of limit orders placed before market open and now they're stuck in limbo.

Finally some random luck in my favor:

Bought EXAS off Wakanda Colon cancer fears and they announce a covid test!

 

[BIKES!]

It was a major deal and very sudden/hidden, thus the commotion.
Want to bet colon cancer searches skyrocketed the last 72 hrs?

Glad I closed 75% of my TSLA short premarket when it was down slightly. Now back in again. Another no news 8% runup in a marklet down day. Insane.

 

[brackis1]

lol i love these bootleg covid financial shows. CNBC was doing a piece on SPACs and one of the hosts at home didnt realize his mic was hot as goes "I have forgotten more about SPACs than shes ever known" right in the middle of this woman guest's segment.

You know what's crazy?

Even after a 5 to 1 split, the stock value is still double what it was 1 year ago

Just sold all of my AAPL shares for a 200% gain on investment. Gonna remodel my kitchen, I think.

Congrats.
Wild run.
Like Tesla, I hope the company burns in hell, but quite the bluechip.
