short float on LVGO is still over 15%.
they are not going to give up without a fight, which is fine. straight up is not healthy


Agreed, though I decided to pickup some $100 Aug calls on LVGO when it dipped under 100, so with my other large position, I'm balls deep. Wouldn't mind another run up before we consolidate for a bit.

I have sold off TDOC to an extremely small position. I just had too much between it and LVGO and I feel much better about LVGO longterm

OTRK is another (smaller) LVGO peer, earnings on 8/5.
might be worth a look

today is a harbinger of things to come:

1) 2Q earnings are going to be terrible, outside of the very select few "work from home/COVID-19" stocks.

2) the job market is going to continue to be terrible. real people are experiencing real distress on a massive scale. small businesses are going to go belly up at an exponential rate, and large employers will slash costs.

3) despite the fed stimuli, confidence in the governmental response (federal, state, local) is dwindling (open your eyes), and real fear is escalating

4) people are still being sickened, and people are still dying. whether or not this rate is relative to the flu or whatever is immaterial at this point. normal societal activity where groups pf people are together is not happening any time soon

what to do?

invest for the future, stay on your plan, protect your capital from unnecessary risk, and be positioned for the turnaround, which is coming.

i doubt very much there will be any good news thru the rest of 2020, and into 2021. after that, it will get better.

Strange. I peaked on 7/9 too. Must have similar portfolios. Down 11%.

here's the real issue, in my humble view...
as restrictions are eased out of sheer economic necessity, people need to understand and process that that's not being done because it's safer. you are more likely to catch & spread the disease as things open up, not less, so we need to be more vigilant...not less.

and we need our leaders, all of our leaders (including the leader you see in the mirror) to help reinforce that, while continuing to make it possible for as many people to make a living as we can

True but any positive news (I assume we will mostly get positive news but obviously negative would send the markets into a freefall) on the vaccine will keep the markets moving up. We should expect to see a lot of news in the next few months as we enter the critical point of the trials.

everything I own right now I want to see earnings on so I’m not selling but if you are on the fence protecting capital today may be wise
