Yes, gambling makes you the best.....

He sort of looks like he may be on the autism scale in that picture.

Isn't he also a big Tesla short? Might have canceled everything out.

I’m with Webb. He is one hell of a speculator. He is not an investor. As far as pathology is concerned, i’ve been retired 7 years and I would spank him at the scope. He’s been a hedge fund guy for ages.

Put your money into starting businesses, buying land, rentals etc. The stock market is too risky. Other than making a few million off of Guardant health in recent years, I have barely played it. You guys are one percenters. Start businesses, build a brand, create better communities.

Please short it. Please.

The put spreads have been put on. Let's reassess in six months.

Individual stocks are risky. However, the overall stock market as a long term investment is not very risky at all, especially the US stock market. Historically it is probably the best way for anyone to create wealth. Small businesses have a much higher risk of failure than investing in total market funds/ETFs. The only business I personally care to own is the one I'm currently a partner in. I don't care to spend the limited hours I have outside my pathology job trying to run other businesses. But I can play stocks at my desk at work and make a few bucks here and there for kicks. I doubt running several side businesses would be as care-free.

Amen. The Bogle/Buffet way.

LADoc00,
He could also just be very lucky! BTW...I know you showed you exited the market before it went crashing down. Did you re-enter the market at the bottom or is your cash still on the sidelines (if you got back in at the bottom you may be the greatest)? FYI, I tend to invest more of the Bogle way.

He isnt lucky, Burry is a savant. A took a stroll by his house a few months back thinking I would try to run into him and get some advice on starting my own asset management company. No luck though.

Invest in water and Gamestonk.

Gme down some 70% since this thread was started. That de-escalated quickly.

Lesson learned here: Dealer gamma can be significantly more profitable than value investing.

100% market manipulation. The peak should have been higher but it fell within expected parameters. This thing will likely sink back to 20-30s by the end of the week unless something weird happens. It'll be interesting to see what happens from here on out.

Hopefully everyone will leave their basements and get a life.

Haven’t y’all seen this crap before? Maybe it is because i am 69 y.o. but, for me at least, this is all “been there, done that”
stuff. Really not worth any excitement.

 

[LADoc00]

Why you guys all gotta be haters? Hahaha.

Burry is actually a great guy. He is a truly a genius, definitely one of the smartest individuals I have ever met, up there with Paul Berg, Kary Mullis, Jordan Peterson, Lubert Stryer (who was my idol as an undergrad) etc.
