Jaygo Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Bought some google, I give these guys a little over a grand a month and i am a microscopic company. I cant imagine ever stopping this advertising unless a far superior competitor comes up. Other than fuel this is my largest expense after labour. Figure i should start clawing it back, Own what you know kind of thing. This may be highly flawed reasoning but I like that they are not relying on China for their growth like starbucks and many other global American companies have been. Alos bought a bit of TJX and added more Aritzia too. I figure they are both great companies, well run and growing, with people going back to the office these guys should do ok short term, if not I dont really care as I want to own more long term.

What type of steak do you enjoy...T-bone, Ribeye, New York Strip, Sirloin, Filet...I start drooling when I think of any of them, but New York Strip's are my favorite. Cheers!

changegonnacome Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 APPL Puts......lots of fund managers hiding out in APPL.......but the confidence termites are making their way up to even the mighty fruit......was gonna buy SPY puts....but from here I think APPL is a superior market hedge...higher P/E, higher beta, lower vol, COVID beneficiary so over earning in 2020/21.......tougher COVID comps moving forward.....APPL is moving up iPhone launch date to try to squeeze a week or two of iPhone sales into their fiscal 4th quarter....artificially moving launch dates up & trying to 'make the quarter' is a robbing Peter to pay Paul game......maybe they make 4th Qtr but fiscal 1st Qtr could be a disaster...buying Leaps to capture both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the thesis; makes sense and seems to be playing out. Some of the March OTM puts have IV around 40+. So not expensive but not really cheap either. Different strokes for different folks. Hope you crush it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Adding to FFH. US$505 is a great price. Continuing to lighten up on my oil holdings today… up 16-17%; single digit weighting now. Love the wicked volatility in energy stocks. Happy to take quick gains with my commodity holdings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregmal Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Yea I’ve had the same aapl trade on a few times and just come to the conclusion it’s a tough nut to crack and that there’s better stuff to play on the short side. Even if you hit you’re going to have to nail the sell/cover timing bc it will be first to rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah timing might be a little difficult and why I'll mix with the underlying but for the first time in a long time with Fed funds where it is.....you get paid a little spread on shorts while you wait even with owing AAPL's dividend the spread is still good enough Edited August 23, 2022 by changegonnacome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
