    They not only sponsored a stadium they also lowered their exposure to student loans and increased personal and home loans while increasing member counts. They acquired a bank charter, and seem to making the right moves. The next quarterly report will tell the tale, wall street will react, or not.

    I feel good about my puts, if assigned I’m in at low cost. From there I sell covered calls and hope to ride the volatility. Of course I could be wrong about all of this, it could go to zero and I lose it all. I’ll still be up on other things and I think that’s how you play the hokey pokey.

    Selling puts is a great way to buy blue chips. Warren Buffet used to sell a ton of puts in Coke.

    odd they are dropping 3% because "Nasdaq Inc topped Wall Street estimates for first-quarter profit on Wednesday, driven by robust demand for its investment- and market technology-related products that offset a lull in initial public offerings."

    Is he still under the impression that NDAQ is an index play?

    Apparently, the answer is yes. It’s hilarious.

    NOBL has a lower yield than those, but is made up of companies that have a long history of increasing dividends.

    I’d just own SPY or QQQ if I wanted that much equity exposure. FMSDX has similar equity holdings plus the active management. FMSDX has a 300% turnover ratio.

    Edit: at a .35% expense ratio NOBL has no yield advantage over SPY

    PDI has 2% fees. BOND is .5. I want active management in this environment.

    I really like the portfolio, performance, and management of FMSDX. It has had yield as high as 8% over the years so they will adjust to rising rates. At 3% yield it’s twice that of NOBL

    BOND is currently 16% cash with a yield above 3%.

    I don’t know how NFLX solves password sharing other than limiting simultaneous logins. Do they start charging for extra screens like cable?

    “The new sub-accounts would be added to standard and premium plans, come with separate logins and profiles, and cost an additional $2 to $3”

    2FA could solve this.

    Seems like we will have an interesting month end.

    Don’t eat gas station sushi. Some shops love their low fees yet their funds don’t perform the best over 10 years either. Don’t be a sheep and do your homework.

    Netflix's biggest mistake was thinking they should just make their own content and not just ponying up for the stuff people want to watch like Friends or whatever.

    That model already existed and its called HBO.

    Is this the real thing?

    1 standard deviation reset?

    Everything is red. Even my gold, guns and cigarettes.

    Time to “catch a safe”?

    Right. That's why we have a billion streaming services now and that's one reason (among many) why CNN+ couldn't even last a month.

    Netflix didn't just "decide" to make their own programming for shits and giggles. They did and are still doing it today it because it's likely the only way they'll actually survive the next decade.

    But some of the things they did decide haven't worked well: like limited marketing, poor quality on a lot of shows, dumping entire seasons at once which kills building much word of mouth, and no real cashing in on IP in other ways (toys, games, other shit) the way Disney does.

    Jim Rogers had been short Netflix for a decade.

    Sooner or later TGR guy is going to be tight again. Maybe sooner, finally.
