Good morning everyone. A new week. Last week for most was pretty tough. I believe for us many of us did stack greens. I am either generally going super defensive/defensive…buying other stuff on 3-5% percent dips for entry or buying hot money which altogether does not care what is happening with the rest of the market. Last week saw an insane surge on some of our favorite safe plays, SBSW, NEXA. AFIN, ARR and AM which are super defensive dividend stocks had a nice rally. I will still steer my trades mainly to these. If I trade something like SOFI [I own 19.10] or CPNG I will wait for a dip as these are offensive plays. I will not get aggressive and try and buy at open, don’t care if they rally without me….
Earnings week kicks off with most banks. By next week we will have probably 500 or so reports. Nearly 12,000-13 trade in the United States. Every 3 months usually for 4-6 weeks as reports come out that is the best time to make money. Also, this week Quadruple witching expires which is also every 3 months. Futures options, stocks options, index options, stock futures expire on the 17th where people who made wide bets will often make moves on the stocks to help those bets win! I did mention a good way to make a small bet on many of these Chinese ADR’s is to buy Call options with a date out. Some of us bought TIGR calls. I believe in the company definitely. As it stands the company is worth near 20. VIPS as well! The negative Chinese sentiment has been going on for months..If you believe in the fundamentals and the numbers you will stick with it… To me, if anything China will go after BABA, BIDU JD DIDI… not TIGR, VIPS, EZGO, CANG, VIOT, LX, FINV, LU, but everything is getting crushed.. even CPNG which is Korean!!! I hope our options on ENDP double by today. Several of us purchased ENDP, November 19 strike price of $5 for 15 to 20 cents. I have told the Elite members let us take profits around 40-50 cents. Yes, we do have a lot of time, but we purchased these last Thursday! 100%+ profit lets not be greedy!
SOFI has been upgraded by Morgan. This has been a fave for many of us. I have traded another block at times but don’t have another position just my 19.10. I am a strong believer that this will see 25-30 even without earnings as the growth can be 75-100% for the next few years. They are also trying to open banks!
I have a company meeting every Monday so I need to get ready for it.

Idk wtf volatile oils are or how any of this works, did i fuck up?
Please i really need an answer before I wake up tomorrow or ill potentially down 15g for nothing 🤮
Is everyone asleep? :'(
Hey all-I’ve been making nourishing infusions quite a bit lately. I know that herbs with volatile oils are not safe for use in them, and I’ve heard that if an herb is highly aromatic then it likely has volatile oils. Alas, I don’t think my nose is sensitive enough to use this as an indicator. Lemon balm, for example, doesn’t smell all that strong to me, but I know other people feel it’s quite strong.
Is there a good source that I can look to that will guide me on what herbs have a large amount volatile oils in them rendering them unsafe for nourishing infusions?
Edit: Not tea infusions that are steeped for 10-15 minutes, but more highly concentrated "nourishing infusions" specifically. These are made with 1oz of herb per quart of water, steeped for 24 hours.
Why?
Because the supply from mining is predictable. Whereas in gold and oil if its price goes up alot theres going to be alot more mining inflating the market whith alot more gold and oil, making the stock to flow going down, and crashing the price to adjust to its real value for a smaller stock to flow commoditie.
PS: I just was dreaming about lambos and come to this conclusion. Would like to get your opinion.
EDIT1: Another though that comes to my ass is that bitcoin in the long run will always have better performance than most stocks till it gets the main currency, because it only needs 10 to 20 years of running without problems for people start to invest without fear of losing it all.They dont need to wait for quarter results to see if the company is getting better revenue year on year.A company has to prove itself every single year even if they are the leader of their market, because the competion is always ready to take its place. Bitcoin just needs to prove its capable to be the best store of value and then people will buy it without even thinking about it, like the avarage joe do when they deposit their savings in the bank at 0.0001%
tl;dr NAT 5/15 7c 6/19 6c 7c
Been playing oil and USO, made out well on some smallstreetsbets but am getting ulcers from the price swings as futures contract near expiry, USO halts 5 times per day, trump alludes to war, etc etc. Looking to settle down with a nice upward trajectory.
The constant in the "Oil fucked" market is supply and storage. Not a new concept on wsb, but I was surprised when I got in at such low premiums. I've already made good tendies and I know that by posting here I'm willing this market to destroy every dollar of gains, but I've lurked long and gained and want to pay it forward.
NAT (tankers, for the truly retarded) is on a consistent rise for months, the issues with crude supply mean fundamentally it should only continue to rise, it didn't dip when the market did and shouldn't when the market dips again, and it's trying to be the popular girl among tanker tickers
A few important factors in the next two months:
- June prices are about to take a big shit, hence USO rolling past June contracts preemptively to slow their inevitable implosion. Demand for storage will increase.
- Brent June contracts expire 4/30 , already seeing the dip
- WTI June contracts expire 5/18, the same day as NAT earnings. Earnings are gonna be so Big Dick, that this on top of an inevitable bottom-price, potentially negative (though not as negative) future price is gonna make the news, which we sell.
- Brent July exp soon after, 5/29
Oil prices up oil stocks up?? Etf down?? Up???? Who fucking knows. But oil prices go down BECAUSE supply is too high, and that isn't changing, and even if it does, futures will maintain demand for storage. Something about mangos. Every time oil dips below $10 we are gonna get more news, and people will throw money into tankers.
Why NAT and not $MYBOYFRIEND'STANKER ?
Because they keep talking about how big their dick is on fucking cnbc, and if I've learned anything about this market, it's that dumbshit groupthink and popularity is as important, if not more, than any fundamentals. Two days ago they said "We are making a lot of money" and today they're +20%
Or don't, fuck you
