HOOD news:

Tokenization of real world assets is an unstoppable ‘freight train’ coming to major markets: Robinhood CEO

TSLA news (very good delivery report):

Tesla reports 497,000 vehicle deliveries for Q3, up %7
HOOD is at 35x sales. Very expensive.

I'm doing that PLTR thing again.

Doesn't it seem like HOOD is self-propagating? Why wouldn't most users also buy HOOD shares? As the user base grows, the shareholder base also increases.

Still, my position is pretty massive now. At +260%, I may need to at least trim soon.

I fat fingered a buy of BLK. One too many zeros in the amount column.

Placed a limit order for CMG Jan 2028 leap calls. Might not hit today, but maybe tomorrow. CMG kicks butt and the new red chimichurri sauce is awesome. :)

How long do you let your leaps run? Do you look for a certain percentage gain then sell to close?

I almost never see the advantage to buying leap calls. I find it much better to buy the underlying equity. The premium is almost always too high

Got back into BBAI at 6.50. Not getting greedy, will get out around 7.50. This is my third time in BBAI, 2 for 2 so far.
BBAI even in this environment should be down. This tells me that either someone knows something and are buying; there is corruption; or there are people buying without thinking.

I'm in the buying without thinking category. Just following the patterns (channeling)

I look to double my position within that time period (or get close) and will sell once it does. I like to do this with stocks that are more established that might not move too much (as compared to tech or spec names). As for CMG. It's at $39. If it gets back to $55'ish, those calls will likely be up about 100% vs. only 40% if you held the shares. It's a way to maximize a rally.

I don't plan on holding these contracts anywhere close to the expiration date (to avoid time decay issues).

I F’d up with Hood back around $70. Also sold RGTI the day before quantum exploded this past week. Then sold COIN at $325 the day before it started running. On the bright side still up big on stocks like MP, AMPX, OKLO, CVNA, plus NVDA and Mag7.

I owned so many quantum stocks during the summer I never thought they would run like this.

I whiffed on all quantum stocks! LOL. But my personal account has 2x'ed the S&P so far in 2025, so I can't complain. Also, my "real" accounts are all at screaming ATHs, which is what matters most.

FBIO sold off yesterday due to a CRL on manufacturing concerns. Their approval for a rare disease is now delayed 3-9 months- no issue with efficacy or safety in the FDA’s response.

Also still love TNXP, NUVB, IMRX, and ALT at these prices 🚀

Had no idea what this stock was when you posted it but then saw this when scrolling X lol. No thoughts on the stock or post, just funny timing

Whoever gets the timing right with puts or a short position is going to made a boatload of cash with RGTI!

If you haven't heard of RGTI, then you have not been reading this thread carefully. It has been mentioned numerous times over the past 9-10 months.

The bubble in this quantum stock is incredible. The call options that I sold are likely going to be called away unless there is a pullback soon. The quantum stocks are in an insane bubble. I will likely sell part of my holdings next week. Once I make enough on my CURE and LABU calls, I will use the proceeds to buy puts in quantum stocks.

Would you consider puts for RGTI or is the vol too high? I'm as bullish as you could get, but the quantum bubble just seems beyond insane.

MSFT snoozing at about $517 per share with very low volatility. It’s seemingly less risky than a long treasury bond however with a 20% near term upside kicker up to over $600/share that a TBond just can’t provide…even if we were to have a deep recession. I’m sure there’s a theoretical cap on long treasury yields right now (an 8% long bond yield would almost certainly break stuff) but nobody really knows what the yield cap is.

I have NEE on what looks like a breakout off the bottom as well.

Nice little div too.

Good thing I sold it. 🤣

Why didn't you say you sold AMD! :)

Doesn't look like I am hitting on my limit order for CMG calls. But it's GTC so we will see.

Nothing stops these quantum stocks. I think I am going to get called out on my options. Oh well... I am going to have to wait for the bubble to burst before I get back in.
