FYI Squeeze, it was Hillary who warned off Nvidia. Let the public shaming begin. :ph34r:

MSNBC interview with dude about Netflix, Disney, streaming in genera.  I thought he had interesting things to say.

Full disclosure: I own Netflix.

Disney's in a cash crunch because they have to buy Hulu. That's probably the cause of most of their current problems. Financial problems. The terrible TV shows and movies are a completely different issue.

I wish they would buy Paramount.

Finally back to my high of two years ago.  Or looking at the glass half empty, zero return for two years.

Pretty sure that would cause massive anti-trust issues.  It was tricky enough when they bought chunks of Fox.

I've finally closed my short position on Disney. Bob Iger's incompetence has been paying off for years but now hopefully bottoming out. That guy wanted to run for President. What a loser.

The shares in companies researching psilocybin based medication for depression that I bought with my play money a while back (that have done nothing but go down in value since I bought them) are showing signs of life now.  One received FDA initial approval on Monday and shot up in value.  The second received FDA approval on Wednesday and that price did not move.   So I bought a bunch more - it's just a penny stock at this point.  This morning the second company announced the results of second round of clinical trials - 75% of patients were in remission after only 2 doses.  Remission!  That is very promising.  [Furiously knocks on wood]

Tempted to toss a token amount into DJT as a very cynical investment move...on the idea that when roughly 40-45% of the population are suckers...profit???  :hmm:

It just went public.

Toni, it's never a good idea to get involved in a pump and dump scheme even if you know it is a pump and dump scheme.

No chance for return on investment.  :P
