You saw what happened today when Dow dipped 1600, it jumped 800 in a matter of 10 minutes.
If people sell into the 200D mass buyers will suddenly emerge itll go right back up. This is a super controlled selloff.
## Speaker_1: ##
Agreed. It's entirely algo controlled. The bots run the show
I'll be a buyer if it hits and bounces off the 200 Day MA....if it doesn't hold and still falls through? Good fucking night.
## Speaker_2: ##
Yeah I'm not going to pretend like I know how all the alto traders will act in aggregate, but there's a possibility where they will bounce off the 200D a few times but if it breaks the 300D then the models will sell like crazy.
## Speaker_0: ##
The economy itself is great and most places in the world are accelerating growth. This will be a blip in 6 months. I say new ATH in US by the summer, if not the spring.

I was thinking if someone got Hillary's hair than the threat would cease to exist and his bail could be reinstated
#fromherpantsuitnotherhead
## Walls1337bot: ##
Hes not in jail for the 'threat' hes in jail for violating parole
## Speaker_2: ##
No... He's in jail for the threat, and because the judge was sick of dealing with his attention seeking shenanigans.
He most certainly did not violate parole because parole applies to incarcerated individuals. Although he has been convicted, he still hasn't been sentenced and has not done time in prison yet.
## Walls1337bot: ##
If he wasnt on parole they wouldnt walk him in to jail for threatening someone. Because thats not possible. Therefore hes in jail because he violated his parole causing his bail to be revoked

You left out car loans - literally as bad as student loans
## Speaker_1: ##
implying i got time to make OC. but car loans are really that bad too? damn nothing is stopping this market
## Speaker_2: ##
I read an article the other day about how 7 year loan durations are 'the new thing'. My friends thought I was crazy when I got a 3 year loan because "your payment must be so high!" I ended up paying it off 6 months early. These people amaze me.
## Speaker_3: ##
One massively overlooked issue with those long term auto loans is what can potentially happen if the car gets wrecked during the final few years of the loan. The car can depreciate to the point where it's worth less than what you owe on the loan. If the car gets wrecked, insurance will cut you a check and you'll probably be left with debt and no car.
But muh lower monthly payments amirite?
## Speaker_4: ##
This is a stupid metric. Take the loan that minimises the total discounted cost of capital. If you can get 70 months at 0 % why wouldn't you take it?
## Speaker_5: ##
Because for most people longer loan terms increases the risk of irresponsible economic behaviour.
Sure, if you get 0% interest rate, have the cash in hand, put it in a savings account and use that money to pay of the car, then that's a great financial decision. If you spend the difference in monthly free cash flow on weed and iPhones then not so much. It's a behavioural problem, not an economic one.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Several \(3\) people I work with make about $15/hr and just bought new trucks for between $45,000 and $55,000. The "Risk of irresponsible economic behavior" is 100%.

## Speaker_3: ##
My first landlord did this. Came to the US from Guatemala at 15 years old with nothing. Worked three jobs for years. Bought his first home and started renting rooms out. Leveraged equity to buy the next property. Rinse and repeat. By the age of 30 he had numerous properties across three states valued at over 3.5 million. Sold enough property to create a liquid cash base and lives off of rental income and the interest off his 2-2.5 mil in cash. Lives nicely but fairly modestly but hasn't really worked, unless you consider travelling and managing his own properties, since he was 26.
I think about all the money I've paid in student loans and what I've gained/lost in the markets and I want to smash the phone I'm typing on. If I had it to do all over again I'd say fuck college and just do what this guy did. He had it rough for a few years but the last 2/3 of his life are going to be spent not worrying about a fucking thing. Dude is my hero.
## Speaker_4: ##
Your story doesn't make a lick of sense. He hasn't been working since he was 26 ? How old was he when he started flipping homes, like 20 ? How long then did he work three jobs for ?
## Speaker_3: ##
Not working a traditional job, no. He had the cash to put a serious down payment on a home at like 20, or 21, kept working and buying homes. He wasn't flipping at least initially. He buys 4+ bedroom homes, sometimes even adds a room and/or converts a garage to a room, and then rents out all the rooms. 4-6 people, each paying $500 - $850 a month in Southern California, is more than enough to cover the mortgage from day 1. These are homes mostly in Santa Ana, Anaheim, Pomona and similar areas.

Why does he care so much? If he runs a successful company, the shorts will burn in time.
It’s almost as if he’s initiating excuses for when the company struggles with debt more
“Short sellers are why x, y, z didn’t happen!”
## Speaker_1: ##
The company is dependent on raising capital, which is dependent on it's share price and trust in the company.
## Speaker_2: ##
Short interest is like just a marginal portion of what drops a stock price. A profitable bottom line would obliterate shorts.
## Speaker_1: ##
He's more concerned with shorts having an incentive to spread FUD and scare longs into selling, thus lowering the price and making it harder for the company to sell it's bonds.

## Speaker_2: ##
honestly its probably broad market profit takers that are triggering bots to sell which are triggering more bots to sell.
short $ROBO
## Speaker_3: ##
This is probably the most likely. Price action tends to make a trader say "ahhhh good run up, let me take some profits" a bot spots it and says "ahhhh the order flow that I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits" another bot spots that and says "ahhhh good, the bot I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits." The trader then sees the negative price action and says "Interesting...heavy volume selling through key technical points, let me sell" and so on and so on. I'm pretty sure if you did enough homework you could spot this more often than not, jump in on it, and profit on these surges (and make the effect worse of course).
Edit: Coincidentally I was listening to a podcast today where the people being interviewed said they have empirical evidence that this sort of price behavior started around 2003 and has been accelerating and getting worse. Tails on the price distribution are getting fatter, the mean of the bell curve is getting pulled higher, etc. What they didn't bring up (which occurs to me) is how if this is the case, then option prices are not in anyway reflecting the actual risk inherent in them and no one should be selling them for anywhere near the premium levels they're selling at. Here's a link to it, they start talking about it towards the end: https://www.trendfollowing.com/2016/07/07/ep-465-sunrise-capital-michael-covel-trend-following-radio/

If anyone deserves criticism here, it is Haywood's agent.
## Speaker_1: ##
That’s worse advice then even Carrie Fisher got when her agent advised her to sign away her Star Wars merchandise rights for an upfront fee.
## Speaker_2: ##

Hollywood accounting can be pretty sketchy too, which is another reason to take the cash. They’re accounting practices should be fraudulent but for whatever reason isn’t. It’s on the scale of that they wrote off the entire LOTR trilogy as an loss. Every movie put them millions in the red according to their books. No idea how you spin numbers like that.
## Speaker_1: ##
That’s crazy, didn’t that movie make a fortune? I’ve always been fascinated by the whole concept of Hollywood accounting. Do you know any good sites that I could do more research?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It isn't that complicated in an example scenario, studios set up a dummy company for the movie, which contains the budget and marketing costs, and then studios charge that company ridiculous fees for distribution which means that they have to have way bigger box office than possible. So the dummy company loses money.
I don't know how it's still legal either, but its why in negotiations actors typically look for net points rather than profit points.

The problem in my view is barrier to entry for most young people. Certifications and degrees are tantamount to waste in lieu of verifiable experience. We all know at least a few people that cannot break into industry despite their education and work ethic. Perhaps it's a lacking of apprenticeships, not internships, or the unwillingness of companies to outlay cash and lost productivity to train skilled replacements for their workforce. I'm not talking about breaking into heavily unionized industries like auto or utilities. Rather, I'm speaking about the skilled trades like plumbing, glazing, baking, butchery, heavy machinery, and trucking.
## Speaker_1: ##
Or people could just get an accounting degree and never be unemployed ever
## Speaker_2: ##
I have two people with accounting degrees in my family, one of them a masters, both straight out of college. One of them can't find any non-call center jobs and just decided to start on with Amazon doing customer service, the one with the masters is working surveillance at a casino. I know both are looking for accounting jobs because I've been helping them with resumes, interview prep, etc. but the problem is they're either overqualified for entry-level jobs due to their advanced degrees or not qualified for more experienced positions due to their lack of experience doing actual accounting work. I understand my experience is anecdotal and possibly unique to the region in which we live, but these are both intelligent individuals who graduated with top marks, have strong work histories either prior to or after graduating, and are having difficulty breaking into the field. A degree doesn't guarantee success any longer, if it ever did.
## Speaker_1: ##
How the fuck did they not get a job at a big 4 if they have good GPAs? The only people I know who didn't get jobs in the field literally just didn't participate in the campus recruiting cycle.

The suspect allegedly bought options to short sell 15,000 shares of BVB stock for 78,000 euros ($83,600), according to "Bild." He would have profited from the transaction if the price for shares of the team fell.

## Speaker_1: ##

## Speaker_4: ##
I don’t completely disagree with you but my problem with Snap as a company is that they seem to be absolutely deaf to what consumers actually want. They add features, rearrange things, release products (their glasses) that fall completely flat and throw a ton of money away in the process. Meanwhile, bigger social media platforms just snag the ideas that do work, and somehow find ways to improve on them.
Bigger than that, though — how do they make profit in the long run? I work in social/web advertising (on the planning/buying/analytics side). You know how many clients I have who are calling me to ask why we aren’t advertising on Snapchat yet? Zero. As an advertiser, ads are skippable so it’s a useless platform to me. They’ve already announced plans to make ads unskippable, and that’s gonna piss off their users. They’ve had a ton of problems figuring out what it is that their users want from a content perspective, now they’re gonna forcibly pump ads into that content? Users are likely going to avoid that content, so content providers will likely migrate to other platforms (Instagram, Facebook) with similar features that their target audiences are already using. After that, Snap’s only play is to insert ads into user-created content, and by then no one’s gonna want to use it anymore.
And don’t even get me started on how fucked they are when GDPR comes to the States within the next 5 years, give or take.
I just don’t see Snap being successful in the long run, unless they really revolutionize how they serve up ads.

$2 million in the 1960s (~$20 million in 2017 dollars) and an inherited network of the most powerful real estate people in the US? Yeah, that's not skill. Does Trump have a good work ethic? Sure. Is he a master businessman? Not in the least.
And he's not a billionaire. Not even close.
Considering he's the self proclaimed "king of debt", let's assume his net worth is honestly $800MM (which is a generous fucking estimation). That's less that 1/25th of fucking UBER's worth.
As for winning the presidency? It helps if you fucking cheat by being a traitor to your own country, taking intelligence from one of our oldest global enemies.
## Speaker_2: ##
Did you seriously compare a person's networth to a company? Lol
I am not a fan of Trump but I give him some credit for being a decent businessman/marketer. He inherited 1 million from his dad and the rest 19 million from a bank. He then invested them into a 200 million real estate business which is now worth 4.7 billion.
Sure he laundered money, paid politicians, started failing companies like Trump water bottle, trump steaks etc. But he is a billionaire now.
## Speaker_3: ##
These guys mock Trump for turning millions into billions as if that's trivial. That's like turning $1000's into a million. Hell, half of his reddit critics can't even turn a college degree into a career.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Turning $2M into $1B over 50 years is a CAGR of 13%. And this ignores Trump's inherited generational wealth. You could get that kind of return with a good mutual fund.
## Speaker_3: ##

Simply put, it depends. But if you want like extreme gains buy FD’s which are OTM cheap strikes and go all in. For example, I bought a QQQ 11/30 $167.5 call yesterday before the J Powell speech and made 667%. Turned $26 to $199.
## Speaker_0: ##
Fuck that's awesome. And yeah, I don't understand much of what you just said (OTM, cheap strikes etc.). I have some learning to do.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Normally I’m a huge dick to new people here but yeah definitely learn. Google is your friend. Just keep browsing these threads and don’t comment until you know the lingo pretty much. That’s what I did and it’s worked for the most part.
OTM = out of the money
ITM = in the money
Strikes = strike price (the price you want the stock to be at)
That’s all I got can’t give away all of the lingo. You’ll learn. Good luck.

## Speaker_3: ##
Yeah but 90% of the turds here are frat boys who's daddys made some money and sent them to private school so they have no perception on real struggles of life, nor do the realities of economics effect them.
Also, what's with the conservative guys with business owning dads that worship their every word and praise their dads as some sort of savior? It's like a stereotype or something. Creepy af.
## Speaker_4: ##
As someone who knows a lot of rich kids with rich daddies, they are indeed really creepy about their dads.
One rich kid I know: "My dad is the smartest man I know."
Dad literally got rich selling shingles. Like house shingles. So smart... Lucky and persistent, is more like it.
Edit: I got more stories about rich kids if anyone wants to hear 'em!
## Speaker_5: ##
>Edit: I got more stories about rich kids if anyone wants to hear 'em!
Not like I have anything better to do. Hit me with them.
## Speaker_4: ##
All right, so one kid I knew grew up in a beach house, and his dad bought him a boat before he bought him a car. Because in that state you have to be 14 to get a boater's license and 16 to get a driver's license. Then when he became 16, he would park his car (a BMW) at a marina and drive his boat to the marina to get his car to drive to school. He claimed this was faster because the boat had a more direct route to the marina. This was clearly bullshit. It took him like 2 hours to get to school and he had to leave super early. He didn't have any real friends except these two extremely dorky dudes who only hung out with him for his possessions and beach house.
The shingles kid from my previous story graduated from college with a humanities degree and like a 2.5 GPA. His dad gave him a $1M loan to start a business. He started a SHINGLES BUSINESS.
Another kid I knew was the son of an owner of a small chain of local jewelers. He received a brand new Mercedes G-Class (which were new to the US at the time) upon high school graduation. He drove around posting pictures of him and a friend drinking vodka in the car to Facebook. He wrecked the car into a tree driving at high speeds a few years later (probably drunk) and was seriously injured. I haven't heard from or about him since. Could very well be paralyzed or brain damaged for all I know.
Hmm, let's see. I know a couple of kids whose parents spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to send them to elite private schools, only for them to barely get in to shitty state colleges with reputations for partying. I don't really know what any of them are doing with their lives now.
Edit: Then there were the normal rich kids... The freakiest of them all.
## Walls1337bot: ##
And I bet all of those rich kids were temperamental ass holes also.
## Speaker_4: ##
Hmm, I'm not sure if I would describe them as temperamental, actually. More like oblivious to how good they had it. I think they would be quicker to play the victim than to lash out.
## Walls1337bot: ##

If Warren Buffett were to divide his estimated net worth with everyone in the room, they'd each get about $4,680,000.
## Speaker_1: ##
I wonder how many of them have a higher networth already
## Speaker_2: ##
A bit over 1% of the US population is millionaires. You figure there should be at least 175 at this convention. It is probably more than that, considering that this is a specialized convention dealing with investing.
## Speaker_3: ##
As of 2017 studies there are about 10.8 million people in the United States with a net worth above 1 million dollars. The US population is about 325.7 million. 75 million of which are under 18 so they should be removed from that number since they aren't even adults. Beyond that even for a successful person you can't really expect them to build that kind of net worth until probably 30 or so (probably closer to 40 since you aren't even in the workforce till your early-mid 20s depending on level of education and time it takes to repay the cost of that education).
So the number of people in the U.S. who are old enough to reasonable have reached that net worth is really closer to 10% or so in my opinion.
Becoming a millionaire (by net worth) in your lifetime is really not "rich" and is a really reasonable goal and doesn't require you being all that successful
I would guess well over 50% of people at that meeting have a net worth above $1mil

Because they believe capitalism is cancer. In today's age, it's in late stage. So, it's like a disease on the verge of killing its host.
## Speaker_1: ##
That's bizarre. I've read up on socialism and support some of its tenets like helping the poor. Didn't read anything about this. I've heard the phrase "late capitalism" at feminist meetings too which was weird to me.

## Walls1337bot: ##
[deleted]
## Speaker_1: ##
This is a very black and white view of history but I understand why those with an apocalyptic mindset would believe something of the sort.
Things like capitalism and socialism are pretty much mixed together in modern economies, there is some unsanctioned trade within command economies as well.
Even during the feudal era, trade existed and was common especially in cities where almost nobody lived on a manor, while a form of communism existed in religious groups.
## Walls1337bot: ##
[deleted]
## Speaker_1: ##
Economies transition from subsistence farming to industrialized all the time. In fact this is happening in 'developing' countries right now. But it's rare that 'capitalism' is something to transition out of.
The few economies that transitioned to a specific type of communism were different and the evidence shows that they may be transitioning to capitalism, in fact.
Before communism, countries like Russia and China had economic and political situations that were nothing like modern, western powers that are often derided as "late capitalist" or "neoliberal".
The average lifestyle there was similar to the medieval peasant and the leaders identified it as feudal (even if it wasn't exactly feudal).

That is where you go when you do "white collar" crimes. Even the federal prisons that haven't housed a major mob boss and coke dealer, if you're in minimum security you're basically in camp.
This was what I was told from a prisoner in the federal prison in Florida "If you're going to be a criminal make sure it is fraud or something like that, on the felony level. That way you're in minimum security and it isn't bad at all. You get conjugal visits, eat decent food, are kept away from all violent offenders, and there are no worries about being raped in the shower.
Shit, even if I could go back in time and change what I did, I wouldn't. I was surrounded by guys who spent more on a suit than the average fucker makes in a month."

I've said it before and I'll say it again - ACA was the only reason I was able to become an entrepreneur. At 32 with a young family with a kid that had been hospitalized for Asthma several times - I couldn't actually even get insurance - no matter how much money I was willing to pay per month. So I stayed at my job because of the benefits. When the ACA was passed, I was able to co-found a company with my friends because I had assurances that I could GET health insurance for my kid and myself.
## Speaker_1: ##
I’m sure some white boy conservative will indirectly imply your kid should have died.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Yeah I don’t know. It’s more like they only view the costs rather than the “freedom”and societal benefits that come with health care.
I lived in Europe for my 20s and one of the things I observed there was because of how difficult it was to fire people and the benefits if you were fired or laid off the banks actually needed almost no down payment for a home loan since the risk of default was a lot lower. Also since the government/taxes covered the vast majority of university costs - young people were able to buy houses pretty much right away after their first job.
## Speaker_1: ##
afaik I’ve heard the opposite about home ownership. Due to rental laws on the mainland being so in favor of the renter and high union membership, a lot don’t buy because it allows for protracted entrenched striking if one is called.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Seriously, in the 8 years I lived there I didn't witness a single strike. Things like the trains would threaten to strike but it never happened.

can confirm everything in this thread is true
have three roommates that work in IB, insane academics in college at top 10 business school, work 80-100 hrs a week and make 150k straight out of college.
IB experience makes your resume insanely stacked. one of my roammates quit IB to join a hedge fund (BAM) and makes 300k (without bonus calculation) at 25. think about that shit.

Or you can get a job in tech, earn like $200k straight out of school, and only work 35hrs a week? And trade all day in the office.

Same goes for the availability of those positions. Getting a tech job that pays $200k right out of school isn't exactly applying to a computer repair shop or building a shitty website for some local mom and pop shop.

The fact is that not everyone is a smart, talented, hard-working, or lucky enough to get those awesome paying positions.
## Walls1337bot: ##
That and even those guys don't pay 200k to entry level software dev positions. I get maybe he was exaggerating for effect but most of these guys make significantly less than that.

Where do I turn in my full semi-automatic?
## Speaker_1: ##
At the 1000000 rpm station where they also buy your 200 round extended glock clips that make your gun shoot faster along with your silencer that makes your gun a “ghost gun” and turns you invisible.
## Speaker_2: ##
Don't forget the cop killer bullets that not only kill cops but their entire extended family as well.
## Speaker_1: ##
Oh how could I forget! And also remember the incindiery “heat seeking” explosive armor piercing rounds that cost 15 cents a piece and can blow up a city block! Wow why does our government allow such atrocities?! People could hurt each other with them!
## Walls1337bot: ##
Will they accept my baby skull-seeking rounds?

But it cost the Hang Seng 20% - suck it China
## Speaker_1: ##
That's actually kinda the point. War is about inflicting more damage than you take yourself, winning via attrition.
## Walls1337bot: ##
how about we dont damage either side? it's even easier than winning the trade war since you just do nothing and all is well.
## Speaker_2: ##
>your rival catches up to you since dont proactively act against them
>all is well
## Walls1337bot: ##
First of all, I am not sure what is wrong with the world equalizing as long as it is the poor countries becoming richer (rather than richer countries becoming poorer). The more wealthy individual chinese/indians/africans become the more they have to lose and the more they are interested in trade, IP protection, and freedom in general. Right now an average Chinese person is still incredibly poor. Their GDP per capita is $8.8k real, $16.7k PPP; a large part of the government support comes from the that people finally have decent apartments, plenty of food, access to some level of medical care, ability to educate their children, etc.. they don't have access to "luxuries" on broad basis.
Second, the current trade war doesn't actually do anything to create a differential between china/us capabilities. It simply harms both with little benefit. Do we really think US companies will have better access to Chinese markets, even if the Chinese government lowers their tariffs, given all the bad will this will garner from Chinese consumers? Boycott of American goods by chinese consumers is already a thing, and it will only worsen (it is also something you can't "negotiate" on a governmental level).
Third, one of the big drivers of the nationalistic and repressive power in CCP is the notion of "china being abused by imperialists" (sick man of asia narrative). Like the russian blame game, this allows the chinese government to focus on external enemies (the west), thereby continuing their totalitarian policy at home (thus China has internment camps with more than a million people being imprisoned without judicial oversight). By providing the CCP with a convenient boogyman, we are feeding their power and repressive capability.
Edit: words are hard, edited language after rereading.

Nah man trigger discipline
## Walls1337bot: ##
No. This is America.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah bruh, where two-thirds of all gun deaths are suicides. Trigger discipline needs to be taught to prevent accidental death and not encourage someone to kill themselves too easily
## Walls1337bot: ##
http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-accidental-gun-deaths-20180101-story.html
Accidental gun deaths are negligible and falling. Suicide is intentional, how the fuck is teaching people trigger discipline going to help with that?

$TSLA where the price is made up and the profit doesn’t matter
## Speaker_1: ##
Meh, could not care about their profit, CEO or share price as long as they keep making cars like my model 3.
The car is phenomenal. It makes me look forward to driving it every day. If reliability stays solid for the next few years I'll never buy from another manufacturer.
Special thanks to Otto's BMW for sales tactics that made me walk away from a 340i and put a deposit on a Tesla.
## Speaker_2: ##
>If reliability stays solid for the next few years I'll never buy from another manufacturer.
Boy you better hope that you don't get a car that was built during one of their production bursts.
## Speaker_3: ##
Chides Tesla owner for having to worry about in-warranty repairs at no cost to them.
Blissfully wastes all their hard-earned money on gas stations every week and ridiculous ICE maintenance costs.
Gas cars, where the warranty doesn't matter because most parts are designed to fail under "normal wear and tear".
Complain about TSLA stock all you want, but going from a gas car to an EV is like going from a basic phone to a smartphone. There's a reason why EVs--any EV, including the economy ones--have significantly higher owner satisfaction rates than gas cars and why Teslas are at the top of those lists.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> Blissfully wastes all their hard-earned money on gas stations every week
I drive a Volt.
## Speaker_4: ##
I drive a massive displacement v8 and no amount of reddit shitposting or shilling like this is gonna get me to hand over money to the Muskrat, particularly when I enjoy cars as a hobby as an enthusiast. It’s like trying to tell the guys at PCMR to joint the Steve jobs cult and buy a Mac

I was unemployed for a month this year and went to probbaly 15 movies.
$12.96 x 15 = $194.40 - my $9.99 inital investment i profited $185.
I thought the onion was suposed to be satirical
## Speaker_0: ##
Doubt they were paying full price to the theaters.
## Walls1337bot: ##
They do. I went to Regal every time. No deal worked out with them.
Edit: if you think 15 movies in a month was a lot there were kids on /r/moviepassclub going to one every day. Probably still are.

## Walls1337bot: ##
So aparently thats a new thing i didnt know about. After talking about MP on here i decided i wanted to see a movie, opened the app, and they made me agree to a new TOS which is 3 movies a month. Last time i used it was probbaly 3 weeks ago so they changed it since then. They can still loose 20 bucks a month.

I don't see any reason why it will crash, they have the CPU market pretty solid with Intel fucked for at least 2 years.
Nvidia are sitting on the next generation of GPUs basically because they have a gpu monopoly right now.
So in conclusion no reason for AMD stock to tank, which means it will tank.
The only reason I can see big movement is if Apple announce the new generation of macbooks to have mobile Ryzen in, as the stock market sure does love any apple related news.
## Speaker_1: ##
Nvidia and AMD GPUS are pretty comparable imo
## Speaker_2: ##
At their respective MSRP's maybe, AMD still has nothing to counter the 1080 or 1080 Ti.
## Speaker_3: ##
1080 isn't the issue, Vega gets close and often trades punches there.. 1080ti yes though.
## Speaker_4: ##
Modern AMD tech vs 2 year old nvidia tech. Do not underestimate the green giant
## Speaker_5: ##
7nm Vega being tested excites me. She said it’s 35% faster roughly. That’s pretty damned good if true and will possibly put them on top if NVDA takes a while.
## Walls1337bot: ##
NVDA is waiting to see what Vega looks like before they release 11 series specs. It's the same thing they did with VEGA by holding off on the 1080ti until VEGA was a known quantity. All AMD can shoot for right now is the Titan V.

All you need to know. If I could buy more I would.

I don't get it. tell me why I should buy.
## Walls1337bot: ##
We're 40 degrees hotter than usual, demand is setting historic new lows in the next two weeks. Reports are put out on Thursday's, and once they are out people will have their feelings confirmed that we are having historic lows and the price will get crushed.
## Speaker_0: ##
So shouldn't we buy after thursday?
## Walls1337bot: ##
No, buy DGAZ BEFORE Thursday. DGAZ goes up when natural gas goes down. Once the reports come out everyone's suspicions will be confirmed and it will tank.
This is like a when someone yells fire at a concert. Everyone's mood gets killed (now) then they realize what's going on and actually see the fire (this Thursday) and panic. Then they realize the doors are locked and everyone's fucked (next Thursday).
There's blood in the water right now for natural gas, and come next Thursday either you're a shark or you're the fucking chum.
## Speaker_0: ##
Oh. Next Thursday? I thought you meant this Thursday.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Both. Both will drive the price lower, but next weeks report is way, way worse than this weeks. This week is like when old yeller gets bit by the wolf, next week we bring it out behind the shed.
## Speaker_0: ##
Oh. Could you explain why DGAZ goes up when natural gas prices goes down?
## Walls1337bot: ##
That is literally how it functions. DGAZ represents a short position in natural gas leveraged by 3x and UGAZ represents a long position.

Trump is a joke. And during times of crisis, everyone tells jokes. Trumps gonna get his asshole ripped apart on this sub over the next few months as we cope with reality; but hey.

I think you're a good example of the kind of person and the kind of discourse I'm talking about. You're a /r/politics inhabitant who has found /r/wsb to be a good place to vent your bile.
You comment in /r/politics at a 10:1 ratio to your activity in WSB, and here you are with the heavy handed political nonsense.
## Walls1337bot: ##
You: "You guys, can you guys give me your honest opinions?"
Me: "Heres my honest opinion."
You: "NOT THAT HONEST."
I mean, WSB is okay with alllllllll sorts of free speech. exceptttt now that the trump admin is in flames and the stocks are tanking? I find your aim, and your timing, and your response to getting what you asked for, all exceptional.
## Speaker_1: ##
Hes not wrong tho. You got a right to say what you want but it just sounds kinds loony lol
## Walls1337bot: ##
Mod is being a bit butthurt IMO because he/she got exactly the kind of feedback that they asked for but were not prepared to receive.
You want people to be honest, okay, but dont puss about what they have to say once they've been honest. Thats just lame.
Also, Mod did a quickie biopsy on my posting in wsb vs pol and concluded I often shitpost political items in wsb... which is nooot true. of the posts I made today in wsb, one referenced Trumpy. One, of like, seven or eight, the bulk of which were self-depreciating humor. Plus, JFC man, you decide to begin to bitch about people beating up on Trump at exactly the same time where Trump has one of the worst weeks in his presidency and the markets respond appropriately to the political tumult as well as other unrelated factors?
I wonder if Mod ever spoke up in early 2017 about lots of folks being super happy that the GOP won the house senate and exec. Or during the Kav confirmation with all of the jokes. JFC. Unreal.
## Speaker_0: ##
I don't understand why you think I'm butthurt or "not prepared" for feedback.
This is about what I expected and most everyone has been cool. Relax, dude.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Lets all relax. Ill be the first to toast that.
You seem butthurt bc I provided you some feedback *that you asked for* and you responded that posters like me were the item/thing that bothered you... well dude/lady, careful about the questions you invite people to answer. Look through my posting history on this sub.
And its true that politics does have folks dander up, and does to an extent pollute / creep into other subs in a way that it influences the trough contents that folks are seeing on the daily megathreads.
I just think that its a really weird time to ask this question, now that stocks are actually suffering notably, and the POTUS is noticeably on a train for Bonkerstown. I haunt r/pol, but honestly, does the average r/pol loser also relish the atmosphere in here? Take a look at my posts in this sub. Theyre largely in the spirit of wsb as opposed to pol, with a few exceptions, which are jokes.
some of the insane shit I see on r/pol, I would *never* poison the well here with-- that shit is unadulterated craycray.
