TWTR full recovery from the news, sold.
Just wondering if anybody here has CD holdings in an IRA? I have some maturing next week and after looking at the current rates, Iām wondering if there might be better (less depressing) low-risk opportunities out there?
Still holding these? Getting close to expiration, but given the current action, could also be ITM soonā¦
I am, I should have sold when they were up 50%. They almost went to 0ā¦ Doubled today so theyāre only down 80%ā¦ I suck at short bets

So did anyone make money on Kodak in these last few days?
I heard the stock was moving BEFORE Trumpās announcement. Hence insider trading investigation triggered. Big shock. Not.
Iām up on KODK but weāll see. There are options so you can get yourself into more trouble that way (or less, if you know what youāre doing).
This guy didnāt do so well.

1.85T market cap now.
$427.
What a move in AAPL. Been holding a long timeā¦Buy more into the split?
Dunno valuation is at all time high (EPS, expected growth, etc).
Then again, relatively to the rest of the trash market itās probably still under-valued.
I should have bought some short term calls last Fri. I think the split will just irrationally push the prices up some more even though itās value neutral.
I held just over 1440 actual shares at the time of last split. Finally be up near 1400 actual shares again 
Too bad I had ādiversifiedā into other crap.

I bought some more calls Monday, both 1 week and 4 weeks out. Sold some yesterday and today.
Bought at the high Monday, both times after I sold some it went up. Basically right at 5 minutes after each of the three actions things reversed for the day. I have excellent timingā¦
Meh. Realized ~$7k loss, and am up ~$6k currently on the ones I still hold.
Edit: Sucks being right with risky bet on direction AND timing and chickening out early. Now Iām up $7k (including the $7k I lost) unrealized gain from remaining holdings from Monday. Would have been $12k if I didnāt sell some this morning or $19k if I didnāt sell some yesterday eitherā¦
Should I hold until tomorrow???
Edit2: gonna take a chance on tomorrow for the remaining 8/7 calls.
Not a bad day. First time past $400 since mid jan-mid Feb where averaged $380-430.

Extended them a week ago to somewhat deeper ITM and Aug 28.
Have the 345 shares and 16xAug 28 $412-415 calls.
Hope everyone sold their DGAZF yesterday. Nice move 
AAPL passed $2T yet? (We donāt know exact number of outstanding shares until after the fact, right? From quarterly reports? Is this correct?).
$462 now. $467.3 would be $2T using the most recent known share count I see.
$1.97T as per google search this morning.

Any ideas on a short term top for AAPL? $150/shr?
Expensive to do so, but I might change out strikes (higher) againā¦ +50% in a week isnāt too bad.
I made the mistake of putting most of these short term calls in my taxable account despite holding cash in Roth and losing over $5k in Roth last month on some wild betsā¦ (Didnāt want to put too much Roth at risk)
I should probably go look at my YTD gains and carryover losses (donāt remember how much was leftā¦ Or where to dig that out of 2019 tax return I havenāt done yet).
Intraday, up 1 
today since yesterday on AAPL :).

10 basis points higher than Alphabet :(.
40yr loans at 1.18% above Treasuries.
See? A PE of 40+ is easily sustainable and makes sense now.

Looks like AAPL passed $2T (first company to do so), intraday high so far is $468.65.
Edit: (8/20/20) my brokerage account is finally past Jan high. :). That +>$50k from adding AAPL calls two weeks ago is helping
Edit:8/21 (three consecutive posts so canāt post againā¦)
1 week to go. 
Donāt think itāll reach $150($600) by then.
3pm EST update: then again, maybe it will reach $600 by next Fridayā¦ Iām up $46k $49k on AAPL today. Up $71k overall from post 2 weeks ago.
