Grabbing INTC

Intel (INTC) – Intel has been expanding its foundry business, particularly in the U.S. and Europe. A disruption to TSMC could accelerate its position as a key supplier.

Good news, holding INTC for a long time

This is simply just not true.

You should also know that target date fund composition will vary widely depending on the time horizon. Throwing out “they average 4-6%” wouldn’t even be an applicable way to discuss their returns. A 2030 fund compared to a 2070 fund is vastly different.

Maybe it’s just been the 401k administrators I’ve dealt with, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a target date fund doing better than 6%, glad to hear some of them do better but I am not gonna park my money in a subpar asset just because it’s “safe”

Nice pump off CPI now fading to gap fill yesterday's lows. If we hit 552 on SPY I will load the boat again.

My "safe" money goes into ARCC.

unrelated political posts removed

Tesla made a predictable jump after getting the well publicized presidential endorsement - things almost always get a bump from his well orchestrated announcements and endorsements. Every financial news reporting entity ran photos on this story - hardly political. $233 to $247 is an easy 6% one day bump.

For guys who didn’t know about it, or don’t see how predictable these opportunities are they missed out.

Couldn’t have been that inflation came in lower than expected.

CPI 2.8% (annual rate) vs 3% expectation? That’s good news. Sort of.

So we saw a ton of green across the board because one company got an executive endorsement not because inflation took a positive turn. Right!!! Not that it didn't help that company but it wasn't the only reason for today. I'll add another little anecdote: Most all that turned today bounced off support so there was that as well. AAPL didn't get the memo and isn't sitting so pretty at the moment

Green looks pretty concentrated in a few tech companies. News suggests large buyers bought the dip in the recent big tech lows.

AAPL seems to be the one stock that is always an outlier right now, market turns red, they go green, market turns green they go red. I can’t make sense of it

I’m watching AMD for a swing soon, she’s been beat up a ton. Targeting mid 90s for entry 80s even better.

Big volume the last couple of days putting the brakes on the slide.
