How would that over ride their rules . Sucks for the degens trying to play the fomc meetings. CPI days will still be as their pre market.

You got those diamond hands

Yea the usual iv crush is a concern . I just don't get how all these companies like Walmart or target can have only one really bad earnings and then never have one again. So might yolo some into puts. For bulls would probably see like a 10% gain if things work well

What bout earnings tho

Set aside like 50% on cash. Play some Nvidia puts expiring in 6 months ,30-40% otm and then the rest you could buy some leaps on crypto miner stocks like riot or Mara in case this " soft landing " is believed by the market.

Then probably 10-15k to yolo on some fomc meeting, inflation day , and company earnings plays in the future. Obviously not all at once, max a few hundred per earnings play and only on ones with some history of volatility

Yolo 300$ on target earning puts ,400 on some long term amd puts expiring January and 300 on some Amazon calls expiring September

The bofa trades are just as wrong as everyone else except they get paid to be wrong

Well tbh considering European markets are close to their all time highs after a 35-40% drop in dollar terms , and now up 35-45%, this soft landing might be in play and American markets are gonna eventually recover.

When stocks moon crypto will too. Then maybe your diamond hands might pay off when you sell for like 130k.

Well he used his diamond hands to diamond fuck. his impressive gains.

Yup exactly. Even if home prices go down like 30% which is a huge amount , 2008 we saw like only a 20% decline, with super high mortgages the net amount paid might actually be more.

That is exactly why I feel that the whole " 5% terminal rate bro and then massive pivot " is some soft landing meme cope . So much more work for feds to do that chances are we might either go past 5% to 6-6.5%, or we stay at 5% for a lot longer then we expect to.

As awesome as some rate cut or ending rates here would be things are still far too overshot to risk doing that now.

Correct. Though in the end market might jump pump 1% after a 25bps, and then probably the bear trend could continue anyways

Is the announcement at 2pm EST, or in the morning? Cause might as well buy puts on morning of for max roi, but if its announced in the morning pre market hours then would have to buy the day before options.
