Can someone tell me why the short is in this morning? There’s a earning’s call next week, is it to move the buying price back? There was an incredibly high 1,000,000 volume buy at 10:45 that spiked the price to $27.50 and they’ve been cutting since.

Deficits don't matter, deflation is a sin, lines go up WOOOOO!

In my autistic opinion the new found love for everything musk is not about tsla, its about the space program and starklink

Theoretically speaking, you could if wages kept up with inflation you'd out grow it. In reality... Lmao.

China just dumped a ton of money into the market. Around 1.5T total and about 800B to local goverment authorities. Printer goes brrr...
This is the only Chinese news article about this. The 1.5T announcement was made in a speech by the Minister of Finance.

BEIJING, Nov. 8 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese government will continue to improve the quality and efficiency of financial services, encourage financial institutions to optimize loan structure, strengthen financial support for new quality productive forces, and intensify the cultivation of patient capital, according to a State Council report on financial work.

The report, which was recently submitted to the 12th session of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress for deliberation, said it is necessary to intensify the counter-cyclical adjustment of monetary policy and adhere to a supportive monetary policy stance by intensifying as well as improving the precision of monetary policy regulation and making greater efforts in materializing incremental policies.

It noted that it is necessary to keep liquidity adequate at a reasonable level and lower financing costs for enterprises and households, as well as continuing to properly utilize structural monetary policy tools to strengthen support for major strategies, key areas and weak links.

According to the report, the country will comprehensively strengthen financial supervision, continue to deepen financial reform and opening up, and guard against and defuse financial risks in a proactive and prudent manner to maintain the overall stability of the financial system.

Hello. Newfag here, when it comes to investing. I would like to ask few questions.

Spoiler: Dumb-Dumb Questions

I am really interested about, what things I should watch out for when investing, and on which website I should make an account for the purpose of investing. As of right now, I only have a Bitpanda account.
I have been following the stock and crypto market, but I've never invested. The only thing I have done is read some Investopedia articles and fuck around in their "Investopedia simulator", just to get a gist of things.
The thing I am interested in, as of right now, is investing a little bit of my next paycheck into some popular crypto and holding it for some time. Just to test the waters. I do not feel comfortable investing into stocks, not yet.
I do not see investing as some "get rich quick" scheme, but the ""possibility"" of getting few extra bucks from investing seems lucrative.
Can anyone give me a little bit of insight?

P.S Sorry for shitting up the thread with my worthless stupid question. Rate me dumb, I won't be offended

So you're more comfortable with crypto than stocks?
Fair, I guess, but rule 1 applies: Not your keys, not your crypto.

fed funds rate is at 4.75 the fed chair Powell says the goal is 2% inflation.

the us 10 year treasury is at 4.75

Who is willing to give the us government money at an annual 2% loss?

The same that bought government bonds at 0.25% when inflation was 2% for over a decade, aka most countries, companies, and investment funds.

It continues so long as the fundamentals don't change. There isn't a fixed income alternative in the developed world that will get you a higher (risk adjusted) real return than US Treasuries, and taking on fixed income assets outside exposes you to default risk, interest rate risk from far more loose monetary policy, and general currency risk. Although considering inflation even now, you are basically treading water even now with bonds, and that is if you take the official inflation numbers.

As far as shares are concerned, passive investing in an index fund will outperform the vast majority of stock pickers and actively managed funds. Just pick something like SPY, VOO, or if you want more market exposure, VTI. Once you've picked an Index/ETF, add to your holdings periodically. This can be weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc, depending on what suits you.

Very true as I at one time had a very wide investment portfolio. However as you get older you tend to get more and more conservative in your investing. My investment portfolio has narrowed over the years but it still makes me a decent amount of positive NET profits.

Then again I'm not that much of a greedy person. Just enough to live confortably for the rest of my life and not to worry about any sort of bills.

TIME is your greatest asset. Use it wisely and you will get ahead.

I have $1,193 left to play with for this deposit into the market, should I dump the rest into Cheniere or should I ride Palantir? OKLO takes up like 89% of my portfolio risk but I expect it to pay up due to them already signing bids with data centers.

Jim Cramer says I should buy Palantir if I want to be a millionaire. So I’m very suspicious. If I can make 1% gains consistently I’m happy to hold.

Jim Cramer is a retard; the Cramer inverse ETF outperforms him.

I agree completely. But Palantir and Trump teaming up makes sense.

Cramer told me Bear Sterns is a sure fire investment

If you are worried about stocks, don't go into crypto. Crypto makes stocks look safe. I recommend just dollar-cost-averaging into VOO or VTI and forgetting about it. Put money in regularly, don't worry what the current price is.

I bought puts on Friday. They've been very good to me

Alright I got a question for some of you. Let's say you recently cashed out $32,000 in dogecoin. You are looking to get into the habit of investing in a fairly safe manner that allows for fairly good growth, and you want to kick it off with this 32k and continue to contribute money consistently in the future. You have zero investing skill or knowledge, and all your financial gains have been blind luck. What would the best move be going forward?

Lump-sum it into a broad-based, inexpensive index fund, and set it to auto-reinvest.

Everyone mentions VOO or VTI. Vanguard has been a bit iffy with their support of girlcock down our throats, and if that pisses you off, you can buy STRV instead which is like an S&P 500 fund but votes against DEI.
