Anyone rollin the dice on the JBLU-SAVE merger? Spirit around 16 a share, jetblue promises to pay 33.5 a share if it goes through. Trial is over and awaiting judges ruling.

Will sit and wait.
The point being that over the timeframe of this report, the S&P was top 3 every year. This is the consistency you want to invest in over the long haul. Average the returns of the two and see what comes up better.
It looks like it wasn’t too 3 two of the years unless I’m interpreting something incorrectly

Around 17 companies got approved to start bitcoin spot ETFs. They are required to hold 100% assets as part of the deal. At a time where there's never been less for sale, heading into a halving. A halving is a supply crunch, where the rewards for miners get cut in half. But miners selling off what they mine are currently the only sellers. 87% of BTS is on storage wallets, not moving and will not be for sale. MARA gets a lot of attention, but they aren't even profitable now and for sure goes tits up when rewards get cut in half in a few months. The price could get high enough to save everyone, but in the event it doesn't only the top few miners make it. Probably a discussion for the other thread though.

Could look at MSTR, which is going to go to the moon, but I can't afford that gamble at the moment.

Followed, but with 20% of what you spent lol.
This will likely be held for a good bit, not a quick flip unless it really took off which I don't expect it to. Could see lower and kind of hope we do and fill some gaps

From the article:

The regulator is next expected to make an announcement about the ETF hopefuls in January 2024. Analysts have even gone so far as to note which days in January they think the industry is most likely to hear from the SEC.

Decision expected next week. Experts predicting 90% chance of approval. At this point the question is really who gets approved and when?

And how much of the decision is already priced in. I'm expecting a ton of it.

The dollar is stonksing pretty hard today. Puts the 'losses' in the indexes in perspective.
