Quote from: Tonitrus on June 08, 2024, 11:24:51 AMIsn't saying "mob casino" redundant?

Is the triad considered the mob too, or is it only Italians?

I just assumed "mob" in this case = "organized crime".

Playing a straddle on NVidia.  First time I've done that.

NVIDIA has peaked for now. Maybe for good. Been switching to data centers.

I have been riding the Big Pharma train to the moon for four years now.

But I am not a monster. I also have extensive holdings in big oil, mercenary companies, and Apple.

Granted I don't actually do crap. Some guy at the Royal Bank of Canada makes all our stock decisions. I just watch the number go up.

If Xi decides to pull the trigger on Taiwan, NVDA is gonna have a hell of a day. Straddles seem like a good call to me.

Hasn't Xi been talking about how the US is trying to bait China to attack Taiwan but he's not going to fall for it?

Yes, if you are watching chicom propaganda. There is a lot of that right now. It's the main push at the moment. "Xi isn't taking the bait" and all that.

I suspect that when US realizes that Xi just can't be baited, they're going to up the provocations to the level where Xi is just forced to attack Taiwan.

Which is kind of hilarious. At least it is to me, because I'm interpreting it as Xi trying to walk away from the consequences of his own belligerent attitude and lower the tension re: Taiwan while fronting about "perfidious America."

He's a bully who's been swinging his dick around trying to look tough - but now he's backing down when because realizes he'd get his ass kicked and he's trying to put a positive spin on it.

Until China's economy is ready to implode making Xi desperate for a distraction-scapegoat combo, Taiwan will not be invaded.

Yeah well he makes the line go up, unlike the Edmonton Oilers with number of Canadian Stanley Cup Champions.

I highly doubt he makes the line go up any more than Vanguard/etc. would. I suspect you are getting fleeced.

Yeah I doubt this IRA radically outperforms other IRAs. Though I am not sure that means I am getting fleeced.

This is crazy.  They are the only producer of a product that everyone wants to buy.
