Xth for what the fuck to buy in light of rate hikes?
Andrew Morgan
okay, if you're making money on oil, im happy for you, but...
what about our daily lives? what use is your money if it's inflated beyond repair and you can't afford gas for your car even with your oil gains? you faggots are just as bad as the gold bugs.
you're unlikely to make enough with your 4-5 figure portfolio to make up for the world economy collapsing as currencies hyperinflate, user. i hate to break it to you.
Will someone please explain what it will take for the VIX to finally start calming the fuck down. I bought puts before ww3, thinking that Putin wouldn't go crazy. I am now bleeding out of my ass and don't know whether there is any hope.
how is anyone going to be able to afford to drive a car, then? how is anyone going to be able to afford shipping anything anywhere? why does no one talk about this?
Adrian Cooper
I can't believe I thought this would be a green day. Fuck this market.
>St Louis Fed President and FOMC member James Bullard on Wednesday reiterated his call for a quick end to Fed support for the US economy in order to fight inflation, reported Reuters. Bullard said that economic risks from the war in Ukraine were likely to be felt more directly in Europe than in the US. Indeed, Bullard said he expects US growth and employment to remain robust and stated that high inflation requires that the Fed "follow through" with rate increases and reductions to the central bank's balance sheet.
Literally as priced in as it can get. Now it opens the door to them not hiking at all.

>Stay away from Lukoy Like these dirty kikes gave me a choice. I literally can't buy it anymore. So much for the free market.

NOOO SOMEBODY STOP PUTLER NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>despite western and ukrainian shilling, the war can't go on for much longer The war fud is about to end, and then, in a few weeks, we'll get a massive pump.
"I am inclined to propose and support a 25 basis point rate hike" at the March meeting.
Gavin Perez
Alright, who sold? Be honest.
Angel Sanchez
Link to the war map?
Benjamin Thomas
>He just said if inflation gets worse they'll become more aggressive. Protip, inflation is getting worse
No, they're going 25 basis points and reducing the balance sheet, someone posted the summary in the last thread. Inflation is going to get worse so we should expect further aggression
Noice, only 50 more dollars and you can break even.
Adrian Ortiz
My BTU bags finally feel lighter
Jaxon Peterson
Balance sheet would be later in the year btw. Inflation isn't getting better so expect ongoing hikes imo
Matthew Cox
>confirmed 0.25
bullish as fuck if they "priced in" any chance of anything higher
Jace Barnes
Me, ive been selling for the last 2 weeks in preparation of moving my accounts off of Schwab Fuck them Great customer service though, a shame about the commissions and terrible UI.
Kayden Williams
take profits retard
Carter Russell
Don't worry faggot. I will be spamming my gains for the next 6 months.
I would go all in if I could, guess I'll settle for lukoy being 30% of my portfolio.
Jackson Lewis
This IV is kicking in the nuts, especially with my balance so low :(
Jonathan Price
Thanks. Very nice of Powell to say that
Christopher Long
>bullish as fuck if they "priced in" any chance of anything higher The number of rate hikes the market can take goes down with each Fed rescue, last tantrum in 2018 was what, 2% or so? The market certainly cannot take 7-9 hikes so they were certainly not priced in.
Zachary Bailey
Did this nigga just say gold is not a preserve value asset?
Adrian Fisher
lol bobos are so fucking ass blasted I KNEW IT hahahahaha
Luke Martinez
Why? He's barely up 10%

Nobody gives a shit about some shiny rocks you fucking cavemen

to me it's really sketchy that the fed is so committed to reacting to inflation, as opposed to preventing to it in advance, especially wrt the ukraine conflict. inflation is super laggy, when you notice it spiraling out of control, it's already too late.
Caleb Gomez
A twitter account and russian tv, I think. Seems accurate, though.
Where have you been? They have been saying that ever since they outlawed the gold standard. Wealth for me not for thee.
Adrian Johnson
Everyone telling you Powell said 25 BPs rate hike is lying, he said "we will never raise rates" we have been telling you they would never raise rates for months. Bobos are now resorting to outright lies and fake news to defend their delusions, sad.
Nolan Gray
i bought when the moving averages and momentum were up today and sold when the moving averages and momentum were down, using flags to set up risk and reward.
you people holding overnight in these conditions just seem crazy to me. you can be happy if you got lucky but don't cry when volatility rapes you in the other direction and no stop loss can save you.
>doesn't go back far enough for mansa musa's pilgrimmage
Benjamin Rogers
And yet governments hoard it like its worth something So its at least as valuable as cheese
Julian Gray
They can't prevent inflation because the market can no longer take rate hikes. Buy tech, despite their language the Fed's goal is to protect stocks and I doubt they'll do more than this hike in march
>hodl gazprom for a few years >thought nothing actually serious would happen, russia would just make blanket statements to appease vatniks and nord stream would continue as planned >mfw a bunch of alcoholic dementia patients in the white house and kremlin might potentially start the big one >mfw went from nearly $10 a share to less than fucking $2 >mfw russian investing is likely permafucked from potential laws on foreign selling and oligarchs in general On the bright side I’m only down 11% instead of 15%, so I have that going I guess. Fucking krokodil addicted niggers, I hope Putins clown ass gets the Epstein Special.
Gold’s innate value is much lower than its market price. It’s all speculation with difficult control mechanisms, which makes a terrible value reserve mechanism.
Carson Mitchell
Robinjew just sent out an email about Russia stonks
Jaxson Thomas
Tell me Any Forums if China makes a move on taiwan, where do we want to be before the news breaks. Let’s hear your thoughts.
>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell noted on Wednesday that the central bank would be ready to raise interest rates by more than 25 basis points at any meeting if inflation figures come in higher or "more persistently higher" than what the Fed expects.
Jackson Thompson
So will (((they))) remove this stock etf or not? Cause I want to long leap bullish here
Republicans are such dumb fucking faggots when it comes to spending, I know Democrats love printing money but Republicans just can't shut the fuck up about it, as if their bellyaching is going to stop it
im so sick of the tease. just raise the rates already and tank the market. get it over with. i want a return to sanity please. i'd also love to day trade the volatility during the crash and then buy cheapies once they're done. i missed out on the covid crash because i was too new.
Yep, they want to avoid rate hikes at all costs because they know the market can't take the number that would be required to fight inflation. But the Fed is facing a ton of political pressure now. They caused their own problems by refusing to tighten last year. Most likely outcome to me is 1 hike in March then blame Russia/"uncertainty" to avoid future hikes.
Easton Ramirez
Dawg, have you checked the 6 month chart on NRGU. Getting major regret for not buying the dip in Nov/Dec.
Nathan Richardson
these niggas are asking the worst questions possible
Daniel Collins
show it now
David Price
It won't calm down until it makes a serious jump up. Probably over 50 at this point it's been building up so long.
Would a soxx 10% drop in a day constitute a soxl 30% drop?
Ayden Gray
they're gonna hike once in march, argue that the ukraine situation is a temporary supply shock that they cannot affect and only accelerate rate hikes when there's a considerable pressure from the public. given that midterms are coming, you can 100% expect the eventual acceleration to happen.
Connor Young
the Dec 20th options expiry was the perfect point to buy literally any OIL stock
Carter Ross
Really, how retarded do you have to be to continue a bear mindset at this point?
Not quite but close. SOXL is geared for up moves, it matches or outperforms going up and underperforms going down generally speaking.
Nicholas Baker
I still think we have much ways to go for oil stocks. I've been holding majors since back in march '20. I am looking at the 20y chart for all these oil stocks. Talking about 500% gains.
I’m not sure what it is but my first impression was markets might not like the wording. Sounds very un-Powell like. Wouldn’t it make markets fear inflation more, maybe it will scare them to not raise prices like you suggested. Confusing
Hunter Johnson
Man im tired of 6 figure hell
What should I invest in to make a million before I turn 30 this year
I think it's really interesting that the topic of companies participating in price gouging is finally coming up. Powell and the federal government don't give a single shit about that, they're friends with all these CEOs who are bragging about fleecing consumers. I think prices are going to magically come down now that it's being addressed and then inflation numbers will suddenly decrease, meaning less rate hikes and more printing.
I wish they wouldn't treat these things as opportunities to shill partisan political points, but none of their constituents actually watch it so no one holds them accountable
Michael Hughes
Hiromoot fix your servers
Brayden Watson
Are there people here that are actually afraid of a "nuclear war"? NOTHING is going to happen, it's all just theatre.
Jeremiah Martinez
Well wouldn't a 30% drawdown in a day liquidate the fund. I mean i'm sure direxion would save the fund, considering how popular it is, but the principal stands.
Cooper Clark
lmao, yes go buy LEAPS on something that can be liquidated at will at whatever the stock price is at
Hudson Wright
Holy shit SPY. Does shitty mics mean green candles?
