I just closed out for a $282 loss. Take your lumps and move on is how I work. Last week I collected nearly 3k in tendies and you have to take the good with the bad.

Slipped in some last minute tendies with a call on TOL to fill out my last PMCC on those longs.

FWIW, I think snowflake will be successful as well, and now of several F500 companies that either use, or are in the process of preparing to use it

Perpetual idiot / blowhard Jim Cramer actually once said something smart, "just because it's a bad stock doesn't mean it's a bad company." I also trust Frank Slootman. Same reason I was long ServiceNow when Donahoe left and McDermott came in.

Thinking about moving 20% out of the S&P and into a high yield bond fund...except there are none of those at this moment. Also thinking about some protect puts. Think I need to go price them today.

SPY puts are surprisingly costly. Jan 21 300p for about $520. Makes ya wonder what the market is indicating there...

Okay, Aug 300p for about 160 a contract. That's basically about the dividend pay out is every six months for a contract of SPY. Free 25% downside insurance?
