Anyone watch Fast Money tonight? A month later, the "experts" pretty much quoted my post above verbatim.
Does the Fast Money picks still underperform ?? He'll probably start guiding toward a summer rate cut with what's going on in the housing market.
lmao another massive V. 0DTE QQQ 436 calls that were 0.50 hit $3. Wish I bought more. You just know they can't keep this market down no matter what. For those that think this call actually selloff, you need this to actually drill. These slow low volatility bleeds and the ones that look fake (algo selling) always get bought right back up.
I will never watch that show again lol. I used to in the 2000s and early 2010s. I agree with you that rates shouldn't be cut, but it doesn't much matter with this bull market. Unless something changes in the structure of the market, this will keep going up.
Yeah I know lol. They cover the same stocks every night. The only reason I ever hear what they say is because I sometimes leave the tv on in the office after the market closes. Imo, cnbc should bump that show to the 7PM slot, and let Bryan Sullivan have that 5-6PM slot. He does a great job with his show, but it's in the worlds toughest timeslot for the material his show is geared for. Sheppard Smith flopped in it, and you have to admire Bryan for having the courage to give it a go. Bryan's a cool cat, you can tell.
Fast Money is very boring now but they do have some good guests on occasionally. They should go back to the origin of their show which was to rotate different traders and get their opinions. I remember watching the show during the GFC and it was a lot better back then. Dylan Ratigan was less of a cheerleader of stocks than Melissa Lee so it was more balanced as well. The best show they had was Futures Now but it didn't last very long. They had a show about the credit markets but it lasted only like a month. I think it had David Kaminsky who left to go to Goldman. I never liked Options Now that much either. It wasn't really about options but it was good if you want to understand technical analysis, but it was very dry. What ever happened to the Najarian brothers? Were they banished for some reason?
Great post. Before I even got to your last sentence, the exact thought was going thru my mind... whatever happened to the NaJarian brothers? My fellow gypsy kin. Who was that one guy they fired... I liked him. H/o, this one might take me a second. Macky? It was something like that. H/o
This guy Jeff Macke Out at CNBC? By SteveK on May. 26, 2009 - 7:55 AM Following his bizarre on-air comments last week, CNBC contributor Jeff Macke’s future with the network is in doubt. Business Insider’s Joe Weisenthal reports Macke will not be back on CNBC, while sources tell TVNewser no decision has been made. Still, we hear Macke’s appearance on Fast Money the following night was being watched closely by Susan Krakower, the show’s co-creator and CNBC VP. A “backup” trader was ready in case Macke was deemed unable to go on-air. Macke has not been on CNBC since last Wednesday’s appearance. A CNBC spokesperson gave TVNewser a “no comment” on the situation. ________________ I liked him.
This one got him fired. And we still don't know what he was talking about. queued later in the vid Thing is though... he was right.
Macke was hillarious. I think he went on to work for Yahoo Finance. I remember reading his blog on Yahoo Finance and it was pretty good just like his appearances on Fast Money -- very direct with a flair of panache. I remember during the TARP vote he had a quote about the clueless politicians trying to fix the problem: "If you don't know where you're going getting there faster won't help"
