Re: Stock scream room
From Fidelity - "Buyers and sellers of LEAPS should consider the implications of Greeks.* Vega (an option price’s sensitivity for a given change in implied volatility) can be much higher for LEAPS. If you are thinking about buying LEAPS, you may want to do so when implied volatility is relatively low. Also, rho (an options’ sensitivity to a change in interest rates) can be important."
So buy a LEAP when VIX has quieted down substantially, when we're stable at whatever low or negative rate we end up at, and people are basically just lying on the floor bleeding out and whimpering?

Re: Stock scream room
Usually markets bottom with lower volatility. Look back at 08. Volatility spiked in October 08, and plummeted by the time the real bottom was hit in March 09 at much lower levels. Volatility is only high when people are still panicking and bulls are still fighting the downtrend. When the bulls give up, volatility will subside, even though the market will still be trending lower. The peak of the VIX in Oct 08 was 96. What was it at the bottom the week of March 9th 09? Only 17. At the time of a real "once in a lifetime" bottom, nobody will want to buy LEAP options. That is precisely the time to load up on them.ochotona wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 12:08 pmFrom Fidelity - "Buyers and sellers of LEAPS should consider the implications of Greeks.* Vega (an option price’s sensitivity for a given change in implied volatility) can be much higher for LEAPS.

Re: Stock scream room
And look at that, stocks fading now. Big reversal there.
Re: Stock scream room
Sounds great. Oh, the market reverse because everyone figured out DJT was totally lying about 10 million barrel cuts from Saudi and Russia. Both Saudi and Russia issued statements denying speaking about such cuts. This is so not the first time DJT lied like a toddler and then got caught. So many times. Googleplex times. People shorting crude oil at the top of the spike made some coin today, thanks to the Liar-In-Chief.
Re: Stock scream room
Yes, he is always exaggerating and trying to jawbone the market. Of course, at this point, a production cut is a pretty moot point. The damage is already done. We already are drowning in supply and have 0 demand.ochotona wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 1:39 pmSounds great.

Re: Stock scream room
I apologize if it's already come up: You know how Gundlach has been predicting a stock drop? At least one stock newsletter guy is really miffed. Louis Navellier accused him of making that prediction to "help bonds" and called Gundlach a "weenie." Hmm. I look forward to their upcoming in-person debate.

The lie is not about "10 million barrels". The lie is about having spoken to Putin and MBS.Libertarian666 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 1:44 pmHere's the actual tweet:
"Just spoke to my friend MBS (Crown Prince) of Saudi Arabia, who spoke with President Putin of Russia, & I expect & hope that they will be cutting back approximately 10 Million Barrels, and maybe substantially more which, if it happens, will be GREAT for the oil & gas industry!"
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/sta ... 7660925952
What is the lie exactly? Is he lying about his hope and expectation? How could you possibly know that?
- the news portal for the Saudi royal family did confirm Trump and MBS spoke, but "10 million barrels" was not in the press release.
- Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov refused on Thursday US President DT's claims about a phone conversation between Russian President P. and Saudi Crown Prince MBS. "No. There was no such conversation".
Also... 10 million barrels... per day? per month? per year? or one-time? He just said, and you quoted him, "10 million barrels". If one-time, that's about 3 hours of world consumption. Big deal!
Never forget, Trump came from real estate! If his mouth is moving... he's lying.
Why do people feel compelled to keep carrying DJT's water? Seems pointless to me.

No one has launched any talks about a potential new oil-production deal to replace the OPEC+ format, Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, said on Thursday, hours after U.S. President Donald Trump said that former friends-turned-foes Saudi Arabia and Russia are talking and “I think they’ll to come up with something.”
“No one has started talking about any specific or abstract deals yet,” the Kremlin spokesman Peskov told reporters on Thursday, as carried by Russian news agency TASS.

But wait, isn't Trump supposed to be Putin's puppet? Or was that last week?
I'm getting dizzy trying to follow the talking points!
Re: Stock scream room
The evidence that Trump is lying is that 10 million barrels per say would be 43% of Saudi and Russian daily production!
It's impossible on it's face! KSA and Russia would never volunteer for that. That's patently absurd.
Anyone who believes that's plausible has no operating brain cells. You've just proven it to the world.
That like saying Trump claiming he is going to leap from Earth to Moon, ain't going to happen.

Re: Stock scream room
It is funny how much they are panicking, especially since as of the moment the stock market still has the best case scenario priced in. We are currently at ~2500 priced for a quick V shaped recovery. The market is still strangely very optimistic on the whole, as evidenced by things like rallying on historically bad unemployment numbers, oil rallying 20%+ on a blatant and obvious lie from Trump, etc. The bulls are still impatiently looking for any sign of hope to do a Q4 2018 like V shaped recovery back to new highs by the fall. There is a desperation for good news on the bulls part. They still have way too much hope left for this to be a true bear market bottom. I'm still long term bullish, but I am bearish short term. I think we have more pain to come in the next couple months and that things are worse in the short term than is currently priced into the market.ochotona wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 8:36 amMore Boglehead panic

From what I've seen, 10+m / day from all producers is a goal of some. (Including US production cuts).ochotona wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 10:49 amLibertarian666 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 9:33 amPlease provide proof of the "blatant and obvious lie".

Trump did say just Saudi and Russia., And 10m-15m.
But didn't give any timeframe.
I sure assume he meant daily, as 10m a week (or longer) periods is pretty insignificant (less than the 2m/day Saudi's recently increased their production.
Given that storage space is running low, something is going to give. Below link quotes someone saying 15m/day worldwide cuts may not be enough.

But if work mostly from home, would we even need a second car....
