Bought some NFLX today...Netflix (NFLX) surged 8.21% after opting out of a costly Warner Bros. deal, securing a $2.8 billion breakup fee and signaling a disciplined capital approach, while the broader market fell 0.77%.

What are you buying?

NVIDIA

I'm looking for 172 ish to happen and see how it looks there. It's got some support at 177 though so will have to watch what it does there.

I bought NVDA at $195 and about to hit my 10% stop loss...your call. If you do the opposite of me you might be better off lol.

Every fookin time NVDA beats earnings expectations it gets hammered.

I still think that Data center space has plenty of room to run...but CRWV is not my favorite in that space. NVDA has grown their earning to where it's a decent PE now.....not a bad buy in price. This is why I like those companies with a huge profit margin, they grow into high valuations quick. I think the rumors of NVDA chips being replaced by something else is overblown- at least in the near term. They seem to be allocating capital well, unlike other big profit companies like META.

Personally, I have a lot of exposure to that data center sector due to those stocks growing like a weed- thats a good thing but I don't want to buy more now.

I did buy more BX- a pretty good chunk actually .......and a little more NVO to dollar cost avg lower in that one. I don't think the pro's have figured out NVO will still make a big profit on their stuff.

BX is the cream of that private equity crop- smartest folks in the room. Their assets are less affected than the smaller players. They have had an incredible return on assets in the last decade and are still raising capital when others are slowing. It's at $113 and Morningstar has their fair value at $178. Their assets are in good sectors with good returns. I think it's a rare no brainer at this price.

Beat earnings, AND had Over 70% gross margin. That's the margin you have if you are printing money!
I thought this time would be different. I bought again on Monday...

Monday is going to be rocky due to Iran. I guess we will find out now if they actually do have sleeper cells in the US per Jack Carr and others.


I fully expect my investments to be down 5-10% across the board Monday....my recent buys were not very timely.... ouch.

Oil will be up big of course. I'm thinking of some sort of oil put or short for 6 months down the road, Any ideas?

These war scenarios have had a pattern in the past....down big early on and fully recovered a couple months later- something like that.

Edit Saturday afternoon; It appears that not only did they get Ali Khamenei but the IIRG troops are requesting amnesty from the US......which could be a game changer indicating a fairly quick close.
If the Iranians capitulate quickly, this could be a huge plus for the markets....it remains to be seen.

The biggest loser in this is China. I would think China is convening now after their 2 biggest oil sources Venezuela and Iran took hits from the US. China must feel like they have to do something- not good.

Geopolitical events come and go...long term war, well that's a different thesis

Well crypto might be an early indicator, btc up after the initial dip.

I was looking to close some positions on Friday on anticipation of this happening, but maybe a nothing burger. Still early.

I’ve noticed lately, under the current president huge events don’t seem to sway the total market as much in my opinion. It seems like there is more confidence in the decisions being made.

There have been several big international events I thought like you would cause big drops the next day. Now it seems like it drops 1-2 percent, and within a day or two the market is right back where it was.

I will be pretty shocked if the market overall is down more than 2 percent by close of business Monday. We will see!
