    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I'll have to take your word for it. All that's coming up is stuff about the wallstreetbets movie. I don't do options. Just like to use black swan events to get attractive entry prices in good companies.

    Port Strike

    The ILA fought against using containers, which were becoming common at other ports, from the '30s through to the '70s because they would be too efficient and take away jobs. Same arguments they are now making against automation, which is becoming common at other ports. Luddites.

    basement ceiling paint it or sheet rock

    Need a new truck, what’s good?

    I have a '22 F150 Powerboost hybrid 6.5' bed FX4 with the 7kW battery and power outlets in the bed. I could run a whole job site plugged in to the back of my truck. I get 25+mpg, but I take it easy. Wish the electric motors had a little more power, but overall I love it. Huge rear bench.
