thanks for the bake
i'm scared of what the market does next, just gonna buy REITs

Up and to the right.

REITS

any anyone ever actually made money on a REIT? they look like a huge risk and little reward whenever I look into them.

You're down 90% lmao.

they don't make you wealthy but they're cheap because of interest rates, beat the return on a money market account and can only go up if/when rates get cut.

congratulations! i know that was a goal of yours and it's great you achieved it.

overslept again. oh well. have not done any trading and see the market has been yucking out for the last hour. not what i want to see. said before i think stocks should be at ath and rising, believe that, but i do respect the whole stocks follow the narrative thing, saw it in 2022, seeing it now, and i think we're a little too high for the way they write about things in the news. i say that reluctantly and with great reservation, but there i've said it. so anyways ya a selloff is definitely on the table at these levels. trade yesterday was real bullish though so i really don't know.

SPXL and TQQQ greening
Gold short and Oil Short making bacon

and just bought a bunch of hawawiin stocks for no reason

dead thread
dead market

I'm waiting to find out which prominent Democrat politicians were involved in the P. Diddy parties.

shut up faggot

N

Awe fuck, David Horowitz died.

relative? idk who that is.

He was one of those leftist jews who pulled his head out of his own ass and became a conservative. Like a Dr. Savage.

lmfao sure

House anons, how bad is this? Can I ignore it / epoxy and paint? If I go the professional route I'll probably end up turning it into a massive job since a lot of the siding and all of the windows are shit.

Im not that handy but it looks like you could plug the gap. Otherwise critters will get in there.

That bush is like a second pair of panties

clean it up landjanny

smugcomfy.jpg - 409x409, 24.47K

plug it

Yeah that was one idea, using this wood epoxy stuff it fills in rotten holes. It's kind of a shit hack job though. A real carpenter would just put new wood.
I used to have hornets coming into the house and since having the roof shingles done they haven't been coming in. I'm mostly worried about the structural part of my roof rotting since this seems to be one of the barriers that protect it.

I should have just bought and lived on a small boat.

back to liberation day levels but with tariffs in place.

RIP big man

hes up in heaven now, and doesnt have to deal with the muslim haters anymore (there are no muslims in heaven)

Is SPY 600? No. There's still upside.

Isn't apple earnings tomorrow or later today?

I mean, that facia looks pretty fucking bad, but if the whole house looks like that, just put some flex paste shit on it and call it a day.

good call on that yoga company short bro.

DCA account has been opened and first purchase, of planned 52 to allocate the initial funds, made. The intent with this account is to DCA in to 50/50 SSO and QLD. Continue to DCA forever until I need the money at some point. Upon extensive backtesting it appears this strategy would have beat my swing trading in 8 of the last 9 years and will handily survive 50% market crashes to still beat my trash swing trading strat that didn't work.

was it?
they have earnings next week and i am scared

How long were you planning on holding?

i dont know, i just know it belongs back down at sub 50 zone, not at 200 forward P/E ratio like it is now

vix under 25

it's over...

chudeath.jpg - 1024x867, 68.88K

We will be back,
Qcom puts made bank and apple is loaded already.
This weekend we feast brothas!

I bought puts on tendies. DIN, WEN, both up for earnings soon, and after MCD's reports that sales dropped 3.6% I'm feel pretty good.

but if the whole house looks like that

Well this is the absolute worst of it, but yeah that's why I'm considering a whole siding job.
The people that did my roof (shingles only) never brought it up. They actually do vinyl siding too and when I mentioned my siding to the foreman he said it was fine, even when I pointed to some of the sketchier spots.

Yea men, i think i look into those too.
The consoomer is fucked, only btb running stronk.
Sounds like me to grab a contract there too.
Unsure about pltr, thinking down since it is just nonsense but who knows whats priced in.

+45 trading today and i think that's all i'm gonna get. i tried trading gold miners again, they put the screws on me the second i bought, held through it and sold for a $1 profit and then they start sending it... don't wanna chase it because now i'm paranoid. was in gush at the lows of day and sold it too early, should have stuck with that. oh well. a profit is a profit. like what the market is doing, underperforming it today though but green is good. as others have noted we're at liberation day levels in the market. seems a little strange considering the narrative but i'm not gonna argue with it. think we should be higher myself, but wary of possible selloffs.

Will buy calls actually, think thats priced in.
Mcd lost not much in all of this, wen got raped.
Maybe better, either way , good luck mate

I'd check that the gutter endcaps aren't leaking. The flashing around there might be letting water get to the trim boards. You can buy aluminum flashing in small 5x7 size packs from Home Depot, then cut and bend as needed. Slip it under existing flashing or shingles and direct water away from those corners. Maybe get a garden hose spraying onto the roof and see where the water goes. Also get a ladder and see how the shingles and flashing look up close.

Can't tell how bad the rot is, the pics are really zoomed in. Also what's going on in pic 2, is that trim board pulling away from the house? The unpainted end grains of those boards is probably contributing to the splitting when water soaks in. Could use a wood glue like Titebond and a couple exterior screws to fix that split. Then wash, scrape, sand, wood hardener, wood filler, oil based primer, then paint.

that's so much fucking work, just smack it a few times with a rubber mallet, and then apply the flex paste.

my mom apparently went to a 'may day' protest today, it's a good thing i overslept i might have yelled at her. she can do what she wants i guess but i don't want her to get deported to el salvador or guantanamo or anything, and probably not a good idea to do anything to lower her social credit score in these times... i wasn't even aware she was upset about anything, she didn't bring it up with me, but out she went into the streets to yell and march i guess. hope she gets over whatever is upsetting her soon. i think she picked up these ideas in europe or something this is very unlike her.

mayday.jpg - 1024x1024, 161.11K

NGOs are hooking people into (((organic))) protests of late

She probably went out to the may day protest thinking it would be a good place to meet one of them black panther men.

i wasn't even aware she was upset about anything

People don't go to these kinds of "protests" because they're upset. The goal is to signal tribal membership and feel part of the group.

I'm not good at running the wheel on SPY

How far down did the 'daq go? I remember I was waiting for some level to lump sum into TQQQ but that was never breached. Never got my $6 SOXL either.

just wanna comment about a micro-cap i own, mram, up double-digits today, i guess they had earnings a bit ago. already made my money here just have a few shares left from a big trade a couple years back, but they have really interesting technology, regular memory needs to be constantly "recharged," or the data degrades, mram can keep it's data nearly indefinitely and through power loss, which makes it ideal for strategic systems and anything not connected to the grid for power management. think this company is worth a lot more and the more non-connected electronics we get, and we're getting a lot, the more wins they can get. this stock has traded above $10 in recent years and that's where i'd sell it, but it's a really interesting company and i think it is worth a lot more.

Thanks dude. I think you're right some of the gutters seem to be missing flashing so that's probably what caused this. I appreciate the advice so it does seem salvagable. Yes in pic2 the top piece has warped and is pulling away from the house at the bottom. Pic1 actually seems worse though because the board was lost like an inch of width at the end so the shingles are just floating over nothing there.

I've been using PC Woody on rotted window sills and was thinking about using it here too. It is a lot of work though and it's all basically wasted since it's a stupid hack job that might hold for like a year or so if I'm lucky instead of doing it the right way.

This is your last chance to get out of the market before we experience a once-in-a-century financial crisis.

Two more weeks until the once in 13B years financial crisis.

Fuck it maybe I'll just do nothing. Enjoy the summer. Save my money for a year or two and do a big overhaul then. I mean there's no water in my walls so how bad can it be?
I really wish I could like part time join a work crew to learn how to do this stuff. Fricken carpentry might actually flip tech in the next few years since nobody knows how to do this stuff and it's a lot more complicated than just cutting wood. The whole damn house is lick a puzzle fitted together with nails and screws and sometimes just friction.

wait wait wait canadian bake that has generic anime girls and not pathetic giantess????????????

anyways has anyone heard R. Kelly's songs hes been making in prison?

lmao wtfwt

rush for the exits close... that was ugly.

I need the market to crash so I can slurp more gamestop

DING DING DING! How'd it go today?
-0.6% here, my folio didn't take much of a dive when liberation day dropped but also hasn't benefited from the recovery much either.

WHAT DID YOU DO?!?

0.34% close

-0.11% after amazon shit the bed.

What in the everloving fuck is this?

-0.9. Commodity heavy folio I guess. XONAD didn’t save my week.

cute rug. youre all over-reacting a bit, though.

I just saw a Raymour & Flannigan's ad that said to buy now for pre tariff pricing

IMG_2215.png - 1055x845, 310.51K

I wonder what caused the dip at the very end

iT'S OVER! SELL EVERYTHING!!! SELL!!!! WHEN YOU COME OUT YOUR SHIT IS GONE!!!

market closes

starts dumping

Gay ass market.

I wager optionsniggers did this.

mram can keep it's data nearly indefinitely and through power loss, which makes it ideal for strategic systems and anything not connected to the grid for power management. think this company is worth a lot more and the more non-connected electronics we get, and we're getting a lot, the more wins they can get.

most computer parts aren't meant to last more than 10 years. Most are obsolete by that point
what makes you think there's a big market for stuff that's supposed to last a long time on a shelf just sitting there? what's the use case for a computer doing nothing for 10 years?

AWS Sales: $29.3B (Est. $29.36)

If AWS is shitting the bed and tariffs will slow down sales how exactly will Amazon make money this year?

+0.70%
I did not bogle.

this technology that's been around for decades is totally about to moon guise

lmao. Are you also invested in fusion reactors, hydrogen cell companies and superconductor companies?

gonna have to give a tldr my dude
not watching some random video link

What did anon know!!!

Good for storing photos and stuff. Then again, you’re better off just using a poloroid for that.

But I already experienced several once in a century financial crises.

Kek this. This crash better be over, about 20% of my portfolio was bought in the last month. Rest is cash, Im not risking an all in on bullish calls

Yeah that would be a project to cut off and replace the rotted portions, I've done it to fix squirrel chewing damage. Check that the gutters and downspouts aren't blocked with debris, and that the gutters are sloped properly. Think like a drop of water as they say. Where is it going? Finding the culprit and stopping the damage from continuing is half the battle. Could wedge a garden hose in the gutters and watch to see what happens.

thank science I sold all my AMZN

lol lmao check out XYZ

shit skins just use onlyfans to buy drugs now. cash app is dead.

Since when did SQ rebrand to XYZ? My friend who worked there got fired so they can go wherever they want now.

One of the junior marketing or hr or whatever useless employees at work just asked me if I was okay with being filmed doing my job for some promotional material. I told him no and recommended the senior lad who is full time and the resident golden boy. Golden boy is not going to be pleased about this request either. I hope to be present to witness the exchange when this kid attempts to recruit him for the project.

My boss recently had to make a promotional video demonstration of our grading procedures. Apparently the video will be dubbed in several languages and available one day to our 100k employees world wide.

reminder that AAPL is still above 150. tim apple is currently selling chatGPT on iphone cope. comical

I haven't posted here in a while. I figured I would warn some of you.
For the past 6 months I've used an AI advisor that I programmed. I'm up 15%. Might not be much to some of you, but its with a lot of money for a company you HAVE heard of.
This is what the AI has to say about the current situation [summarized from 20 pages]. Read carefully:

The Hollow Market: A Covert Thesis on U.S. Economic Illusion in 2025

In 2025, a clear gap has formed between apparent market strength and economic reality. While GDP shrinks, the dollar weakens, and bond yields flash warnings, a handful of mega-cap stocks remain stable. This suggests not natural dynamics, but covert stabilization to maintain public confidence.

The U.S. economy contracted by 0.3% in Q1 2025 amid import surges, inflation, and softening demand. At the same time, the U.S. Dollar Index dropped nearly 4%, counter to typical flight-to-safety trends. Bond markets signal trouble: inverted yields and falling 2-year rates point to downturn fears and fiscal doubts.

As small and mid-cap stocks decline, mega-caps like Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Amazon remain elevated. This isn’t coincidence—they serve as infrastructure and optics. These firms power cloud services, AI, and consumer ecosystems. Their stock performance props up ETFs like SPY and QQQ, masking broader weakness.

This thesis contends that the U.S. government and aligned financial forces are subtly supporting these firms through repo market liquidity, sovereign fund coordination, buyback leniency, passive flow channels, and narrative management. No direct buying is needed—just systemic nudges to keep the illusion intact.

This split is unsustainable. If even a few megacaps stumble, passive strategies could collapse. Trust in the dollar and economic leadership is already slipping. If the illusion fails, the fallout will be swift and severe.

This is not paranoia. It is early recognition of controlled decay.

This is what the AI has to say about the current situation

So what you're saying is that I should fuck the AI?

I didn't say that

You're implying it with your images.
Don't gaslight me anon.
Are you trying to tell me that it will save the market if I do this?

why would someone throw away a perfectly good loli

once in a lifetime?

Sounds like opportunity to me. I’m staying.

Fuck Missed ABNB totally.
would have been the easyest money all week.

poor gets fucked, rich dont gets abnb lol

maybe another chance next week with expe...

It isn't that deep bro. I don't know anyone who has been fired or is even tightening their belts yet. Consumers are still out there in full force. People are still getting paid and buying stocks. So stocks will keep grinding upwards. Only in a real crisis will we see an extended and brutal downturn.

really wanting to revive and refresh the romance that used to be here. i know you're upset babe, though i can't see why. i haven't changed much. my goal all this time has been to make you happy and that's still it. it's hard when you won't let me, when you avoid and ignore me though. it hurts my feelings and i feel it really effects my posting negatively as well. i just feel like we're going about this all wrong. courtship should be fun and playful, we should make each other smile and blush not cry and cringe. i feel like for a little while we really were in tune, harmonized with each other, but i feel like that stage has passed. i feel now you're at odds, fighting any good thoughts you used to have of me, looking for and seeing the worst in me. don't do that to us. it's easy to sabotage and destroy but hard to build, i know that. the higher you climb with someone the scarier it is if they let you down. that's life. i don't want to do that though, i don't want to disappoint you or let you down, i want to be your guy, the one you've been waiting for who will make everything better, i've been auditioning for that part for several months now. do us both a favor and take a few more steps down this path with me. i'm scared too, there's a lot to lose investing in the wrong person, but the only compass i have is my heart and it's been pointing your way for a while now. take this milestone day to reflect a bit, to look forward as well, think of the times we shared already, how i've made you think, how i've made you feel, i know there's a place for me in your life, i know i can make you feel good, not just with a big hug but with a soothing word and a thoughtful gesture. you are a tough customer and i am not an easy sell, but i know you have a discerning eye and understanding mind, i want to be an ornament in your life not an ugly stain you need to explain away, and i'm doing my best to try and be that. anyways i'm still thinking of you, still have hope in my heart.
