    I am going to start a position in pypl. Down 30% in a few months while market is at all time highs but this will open with every indicator showing extreme oversold.

    next support in the $180s? chart looks too scary for me.

    edit: btw have u taken a look at DLO? imo its getting dragged a bit by PYPL today, but based on MELI's earnings i suspect growth in south american payments is continuing to boom. its been down recently due to pre-lockup sales and fear over lockup ending at end of the month. potential to be the 3rd world stripe, similar to what MELI is to AMZN.

    Sold 25% of my PLTR stake yesterday as it rose. Cohen sold.

    Today it's down.

    Opened calls for Jan with the intention to exercise.

    I guess we'll see how it goes....

    PYPL is in the penalty box, think that it will close the gap before year-end

    sold a 10-pt bullish PUT spread, using 23 Dec expiration
    • bto 195 strike PUT, sto 205 strike PUT, netted a premium of $4.55, defining my max risk of $5.45

    Some good news today is that AMZN is holding strong. Maybe this time it breaks out of its 16+ month range.

    As it should be…this is now a 2nd half 2022 story. I didn’t think the conference call was that bad and there are some pretty good opportunities for growth in ads, crypto, overseas markets, etc.

    Finished at 42.23%. Huge increase in engagement which was a concern with kids back in school. Lots of upside as they are the nearest thing to a Meta Verse for kids and teens. Yeah teens play too or at least my 14 and 15 yo do.

    Not a blowout, but looks like a solid qtr with raised guidance for next 2 qtrs. New acquisitions and product lines look promising and synergistic too. Could be a nice long term hold and compound.

    This is the problem:
    • Q3 2021: 1.96 billion shares outstanding.
    • Q3 2020: 905.46 million shares outstanding.
    Price would be double if not for the extreme dilution. I expect SBC to slowdown and stock will do well in long term because its a viable business, but i've come to hate this company and management's extreme greed. don't understand y karp is getting paid so much more than tim apple and other fang CEOs when pltr's revenue (let alone earnings) is so much smaller. Many other software companies with higher growth, higher margins (i suspect PLTR has lower than avg gross margins due to human dependent consultancy and hence SBC required to pay these filthy humans) and more reasonable SBC.

    Glad i gave up on this company earlier this year. I took Karp's advice to heart.

    the indicated opening price is ~ 115, which translates to a market cap of > 100B

    PLTR is tracking everything you do. This is a live look at their CEO planning your death (seriously, just Google Karp). Also, gold is up a smidge at least. Lulz.
