ALL SMILES
I have done extremely well from investing after covid. Most of you did too. In fact, the GME people WAAAAY better than me. BUT....
Something about the current climate and the shutting down of jobs and the reddit group is off to me.
I will take precaution tomorrow. I'm not selling out of my positions, but I am going some bear.
I am currently looking at SH, HDGE, FAZ. Mainly calls.
FNGD in out right purchases.
Am also looking at Puts on Bull market ETFs:
SAA.. Puts as cheap as .01
I'm not telling anybody what to do. I'm simply saying that my investments will be protected tomorrow.

I was going to start a thread for this bit it will work here.
My dad retires in a yr and is nervous as all hell. He wants to move it all to something completely safe until things play out a little more. The guy at JPM keeps telling him not to worry, he is diversified but after looking at his portfolio he is wide open for big losses.
Besides moving it all to the money market and holding where else could he put his life savings that is safe?

Well, I would trust the JP Morgan guy. Aside from bonds, treasuries, and money market, there's not a lot of places that are totally safe. I would wager he's fine but you guys just don't believe the broker. Where is he open for "big losses"?

I don't know his situation and would not be arrogant enough to suggest I do.
I made large investments from Jan to mid summer. I stopped and waited.
I have no intentions in liquidating those to move them. I'm in extremely low. For exmple PRTY. I am in at .83 and it's now at 6.70. I'm not selling it.
I will short the market using ETF calls (bear market etfs) and puts (Bull market puts).

Have you considered SQQQ?
Posted on 1/27/21 at 10:18 pm to GREENHEAD22
I'm moving a lot of index based funds to balanced funds

He is not investment savvy enough to be trading or moving anything himself.
He has roughly 30% of his assets in small, mid and total market funds.
That 30% represents a significant amount money for him.

They didn’t shut down reddit. They closed the room to sweep out the bots because they were clogging the room. It’s back and running.
Volatility is part of the market. The retailers think they have Wall Street on the ropes, but there are some remarkably smart people on Wall Street, too. It’s great theater that you can join in on.

you made this same thread last year after covid and that obviously was an awful decision considering it was the best market in years
on top of that you also posted several short positions immediately after covid which you obviously got rekt on.
then you disappeared from this forum... until today?

To be fair, a few did call the “top” right before it dropped from ~27 to 19 or whatever

sure, but he's also proclaiming that he's shorting the market when there might not be a time in the history of this country where retail has had more interest in market and easier access to purchase stocks
makes complete sense to me

Got a link to that? I did mange to find some posts on certain investments. But nothing like what you are saying.
Please link them if you are going to call people out.

Did the market drop 600 plus today? Isn't Biden killing jobs left and right?
What does shorting the market have to do with "some" stocks going up?
Nothing.

What? Please show where I stated I was selling everything and shorting the market.
Link it.

I hate when people do what you just did.
You owe him an apology and I am sure you will do the right thing.
I found the ONLY thread you can be talking about (unless you can show otherwise).
The thread is on VIX. And he was talking about, as in the title.... PUTS. LINK
Posted on 1/28/21 at 12:04 am to GodnCountry
That's because he is lying. I was on a buying spree last year.
I did talk about VIX. And anybody that understands VIX knows that it is a short.
That means if I purchase Puts, I am betting on the market to go back up and am shorting VIX.
I posted that on March 9th 2020, and it was 57.83. By March 30th it dropped to 46. By the end of the year... 22.
As in.... I made money.
I'm not sure what this clown is talking about. But if he wants, he can place the thread here.
