I went leveraged against PayPal and won, I've had a great record shorting so far this year.
Bumble earnings : November 9th. Can't wait!
Match beat on earnings, but still crashed in the following days. These companies are so easy to bet against, because even the likes of Netflix will be chosen to keep by people cutting back costs, over nebulous and expensive concepts like "love". They can stem the bleeding when the economy looks like it's "recovering", but when reality sets back in, they're as good as dead.
I guess it's not hard to keep winning when the general trend is down. Just keep adding cash to avoid the margin call until the next crash.
I'm sure a crazy person's shorts will definitely beat the market in the long run and not just because of dumb luck.
So far at least.
I sense that you're going to get into a world of trouble.
I've beaten the market handily.
Long way down from here. Fed will not slow the hikes and these negative EPS companies are dead if it reaches 5%+.
I'm not so stupid to gamble away everything I have. I have exit points that I won't go past. Bumble would have to reach a new ATH to even get close to wiping out my current position. More chance of it reaching zero than that.
I did have a good laugh at the "fair value" estimate though. $47? Don't make me laugh.
You should start a mutual fund.
Why are you the only one to have seen that then?
I'm sorry, I thought you were as crazy on the money thing as you are on the woman thing.
He's not. Pretty much every financial bit of financial advice I've seen for the past 3 years is, "we're on the part of the map that says 'thar be dragons here'".
I don't have that kind of capital.
Because a lot of retail traders are delusional because they want to be bullish on the market. Buy the dip, it's just on sale etc are all just nice sayings. They want to believe things will bounce like 2021, but there's so much more going on. China's "zero covid" plan will continue choking out supply of various things. Inflation will continue to rise until that stupid fuck Zelensky is sent back to Ukiewood, and then there will need to be strong action that will likely put a lot of people out of work just to lower it 2-3%. There's no shortage of institutions and respected traders going short right now, I'm not really swimming against the current. I just choose to short companies I don't like, rather than indexes. It's more satisfying. It feels like more of a win to see 10% cut off Bumble than 10% cut off the SPY.
The consequence of a wrong decision online is you bringing it up to mock me. The consequences of a bad decision on leverage is financial collapse. I'm not crazy, I have an investment philosophy.
