Today the FAA temporarily grounded their flights due to an issue with the July 11 flight. Of course the public had no way of knowing anything was wrong from watching the livestream but the insiders must have known. So what did they do? Immediately announce a large share offering. Richard Branson also sold a bunch of his shares. I'm starting to think that the time to sell SPCE is as soon as they announce good news, because usually a new offering or insider selling comes right after. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

In fact I took a taxi a couple times because it was cheaper than Uber! I've been looking at getting into this stock, because I still think the concept is genius and should be extremely profitable. I don't understand how it is they are losing money when they've shifted their core expenses (the car and labor) onto drivers. But they're also doing a new offering so it seems they may be feeling squeezed for cash.

They spike and then gradually decline before spiking again. SCHW is actually my 2nd biggest holding, so I'm pretty sure Robinhood was not valued more highly than it at any point in its rally. But um, GME (and probably AMC, I'm not sure) was really different from rallies in trendy stocks. The amount of options being traded on GME relative to the amount of stock in existence was insane. I think the number of shares necessary to secure all the GME options was like at least 200% all of the shares in existence. Meaning, most of the calls were being secured by other calls at different strikes/expiries. With most stocks, the stock price drives the options price, and with GME it was the other way around. The options drove the stock. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

Yeah, the reason is that Dems want to portray this as "Newsom vs a Republican" instead of "Newsom vs [insert your favorite candidate]." A legitimate Dem running would draw more "yes" votes for the recall question as well from voters who don't realize that a Republican will almost certainly get a plurality and be the replacement. This seems like a really stupid system. CA needs to change the recall law so that the recall question is decided first, and then, if the governor is recalled, have a replacement election with all parties. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

| red sox 777 08/11/21 2:27:17 PM #447 | Maniac64 posted... From what I gathered his argument was basically: This argument presumes that variants that are more vaccine-resistant are also more deadly to unvaccinated people. Obviously variants that are more vaccine-resistant are more deadly to vaccinated people, but that's precisely because they resist vaccines. If the solution is to not use vaccines, that won't be relevant. I would agree that a stable equilibrium would be something like where the flu has gotten over the last 100 years - very high case counts but low mortality. This is an equilibrium that works for both humans and the flu. And flu vaccines do not appear to have caused the flu virus to evolve to be deadlier - to evade the vaccines, yes, but not to be deadlier for the unvaccinated. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

| red sox 777 08/11/21 1:41:16 PM #444 | Forceful_Dragon posted... The ratio of unvaccinated deaths to vaccinated deaths seems like it has an impact. There is some logic behind it, but the conclusion is stupid. The vaccines are doing a very good job of killing the non-Delta variants. Thus, they are giving an evolutionary advantage to Delta over the earlier variants. Delta has major evolutionary advantages over the earlier variants whether or not vaccines exist (and started in a country with very low vaccination rates at the time) so it would in all likelihood have displaced them eventually anyway, but the vaccines have accelerated this process by killing the earlier variants. But the problem is, even if we accept the premise that the vaccines don't work against Delta at all (and the evidence is they do reduce the transmission rate a lot and they reduce the risk of serious illness almost to zero), would you rather have (a) X cases with 90% of them being Delta or would you rather have (b) 2X cases with 45% of them being Delta? (a) is obviously better, but the people expressing this view are going to be ignoring that. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

States are allowed to discriminate for non-prohibited reasons against non-protected classes. For example, states could enter registered voters into a lottery and randomly select 10% of them to be eligible to vote. There may possibly be a right to autonomy in making healthcare decisions for oneself, although it isn't expressly stated in the Constitution. I think most conservatives think the cases supporting that position were wrongly decided anyway. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |

It doesnt matter how reliable of a stock it is, thats a ton of lost money in one day, and it will take awhile to climb back from given the reason why it went down. Your post was useless. It's not a surprising amount to be down though. If you have a lot of money invested in any stock, going down by even a small amount will result in a lot of lost money. If you are going to be sick about that because the total dollar amount lost is big, you're going to be sick a lot. So at some point one should learn not to get too upset about downward movements in stocks for personal happiness purposes. As far as investment management goes, avoiding tilt is important. The kind of tilt where you get frustrated and close your positions and move to cash will hurt your returns but won't result in life-changing losses. The kind of tilt where you close your positions and buy short term options hoping to make back your losses quickly can lead to bankruptcy. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
