Why is singapore full of chinese. I don't understand any of this and I'm pretty good at malay.

I've made it to ep 4, but I guess I don't count as a person.

Cowboys using their 17 on a WR. Finally someone agile enough to catch dak's laser throws. All you bitches going to be not seeing stars next year, just blurs.

I think the credit system being fuckered is still the biggest contagion in the market, with REITs being in the eye of that storm. People should be scared of S&P or Moodys doing credit downgrades in the coming weeks. The fed decided it's okay to slather up junk bonds with it's cash tsunami, but...

It's kinda a few things coming to play once. There's a lot of crude companies that don't want to blink, because shutting down production costs a lot of money. In a way they are obligated to some degree not to shut it down, because people gobbled up futures thinking it was an easy and safe...

The only thing buying USO time is they have a huge pile of govies. They aren't dead yet, but barring some fairytail ending that pile of cash is going to blow the fuck up over the next two months and this whole mess will probably end up very red. It's not legal to pass that on to ETF holders, is...

That was the point I was trying to make. They are growing in size in the market for Contracts only, and that's BAD, because they can't actually do the business once storage runs out. Crude buyers who do it as a business can just step back and let them have the whole market, and when USO is...

I really think people buying into USO don't know what they are getting into. USO is expanding to become more and more of the market because it's so cheap. It looks like they just barely sidestepped taking on oil this month between rollovers and storing it, but I don't think the same thing will...

It can always be worse:

The way commodity contracts are written, crude producers are still making money on the crude they deliver, at around 35-40$ a barrel probably. Newly issued contracts will go for less, but a large fraction of the pain in the futures crash is being absorbed by investors. Still not a great...

I predicted a while ago this coming halfing will take a bite out of BTC value. Long term it is not a good investment. Cryptos are just a fad with retarded millennial spending dad's money, much like TSLA. It's something you can play short term for the volatility if you like gambling, but as a...

When I was looking at oil, I came to the conclusion that oil can do so bad that shorts will lose money. (Usually when you short you end up with an asset in the end, not a liability). Additionally, ETFs, ETNs and financial instruments like USO are especially vulnerable to this, because they won't...

I did something rare for me and waffled today when the oil stuff started going down, back nearly 100% cash until I better understand the implications. I've never paid much attention to commodities. The credit market is pretty much a trash fire still that isn't showing signs of improving no...

Covered it above talking about the G fund. Apparently their bonds have no duration. TSP is run by the gov, so they can bend the rules I guess. It's very slow and limited in a lot of ways like trades taking up to a day to execute, but the fees are extremely low.

Because I have never looked at exactly what sort of bonds the G fund holds, apparently it is a fluid loan to the government where the gov pays interest equal to the average of all outstanding bonds with more than 4 years to maturity. Interesting, and explains why it's on the high end of the...

@LachiusTZ knows the pain I feel. About ~70% of my retirement money is in this horrible monster. https://www.tsp.gov/InvestmentFunds/FundPerformance/monthlyReturns.html

My govies fund is at 1.3% yield currently, which is as low as its ever been, but better than 0%.

Main thing going for the US is that as bad as it is here, we got our retarded hat to the north taking the real deep dicking in this oil glut. I think there's some restrained optimism in the US companies because canada will probably break first if this keeps up.

Terms of the lone are even more generous than I thought the fed would do at least. I'm not against hanging a noose over companies like this. Makes them put paying that loan off as a priority, which is exactly the way it should be.

I bet he sells some sick annuities when its time to retire.

Open a brokerage with vanguard or some other large firm with low expenses. Start with an S&P 500 ETF. It's an incredibly easy and solid investment that will make you money long term. From there as you learn, section off money to invest in the ways you want if you want to get involved. If you...

The biggest thing to know about economics is a chimp throwing a banana peel will do about as good as a PHD economist in investing. Sometimes you'll get it right, sometimes you'll get it wrong. The biggest thing is to make sure you're throwing your bananas in the game.

In till wens prolly. It's a gamble, but sometimes you gotta have fun.

WTI prices down under 17$ a barrel. Looks like they are going to need a bigger production cut. This is gonna be a bad year for canada's GDP.

I wouldn't want her serving me at hooters, but she's definitely not fugly.

So the game coming out of this actually a different game, so backers need to buy it? LOL. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/Packages/Squadron-42-Standalone-Pledge

Interesting, and yea commodities are weird and reactionary. I've always thought it's not a good idea to trade in them unless it's actually your business. While reading that, I stumbled upon someone looking into the comments I made about the Gilead cure here. The timing in particular felt like it...

You need to weed that vine in there, preferrably with your nuts.

And some wild animals just stayed in their pen.

So's quarantine is about the only excuse I can think of.

Gotta live with your choices. Sold when it was over 300, so in the end I won, why worry about how I coulda won bigger?

I put my roth in today since its the one I look at least and I'm lazy with it. S&P index fund VOO. I know, not exciting.

In january I said I saw a crash coming and moved out. Back then I expected a few things, the downtrend to last to may, the crash to be about 20% at this time, and that irregardless I'll almost certainly buy in mid-late april. I knew I'd be buying in before the pain is over, but I'm not here to...

Okay I get it, you recognize a kindred spirit.

Ummmm..... uhhh..... So have you finally figured it out?

I'm about 25% back in. We're about where I thought we'd be in january, though we took a scenic detour to get here. Probably gonna be some downside still, but I don't need any of this money for 10+ years. I'll probably have the rest in by the end of the month.

They claim to be restarting some manufacturing. Not every contract they had is cancelled, so could be true.

I posted a picture of my chicken wings and aunt jemima in politics. Waffles and chicken wings was fucking delicious yesterday, thank you very much.

He laid out his fucking hugo boss knockoffs to try and impress people. At least he could have put out a decent brand like ralph lauren.

I'd be careful with Gilead now. SEC and FDA probably won't act until things have cooled off, but their actions definitely warrant a look from both organizations.
