    You want a thank you for losing the readers over 1/3rd of their money?!!!

    See Stoney, you have to know when it is more advantageous to buy the underlying and SELL the calls for earnings than it is to buy the calls. Those $42's are $0.95 on the bid right now. This is graduate level market prowess, knowing which stocks to do this on, so it's not surprising you blew that one. Next time ask me first. As I wrote last week.

    How is this on the loading dock.
    You mocked me Monday when I said I was out at $199 and you were bragging about $201 telling me to "listen to you".

  3. I have 6 TJX $85 Jan calls I have owned at a price of $5.00. Sell?

    VECO, CMT, HLLY, EVLV, CPS, HWKN are all pulling back, adding more space in my trailer to load them up. I might marry these bad girls.

    Ted....
    Here's a high risk 2 day option play...
    FND 8/18 $105 calls at $0.75

    There were several sweep trades on the buy side for these earlier in the week at a much higher price. $1.45 I think

    It's a long shot, especially after their last earnings report, but that's why I like it. Sqaaaaweeez maybe? Into Friday?

  5. Very few companies -- even if they wanted to build rides that equal what's offered at Disney and Universal's parks -- own IP that people care about as much as they do about the two theme park leaders' top brands. Now, however, a new park that's being built in Arizona has become a much more serious rival due to the unexpected massive success of the "Barbie" movie.

    MAT) - Get Free Report doll was largely viewed as a children's brand that adults maybe had some nostalgic ties to. You could say the same for a number of other key Mattel properties -- He-Man (Masters of the Universe), Hot Wheels, and Thomas the Tank Engine -- which will be cornerstone franchises at Mattel Adventure Park.

    In size, Mattel Action Park, which is being built on 9 acres in Glendale Ariz., by Epic Resort Destinations won't compete in any meaningful way with Disney or Universal's offerings. "Barbie," however, might be a factor in families deciding to visit the new park given the toy's massive pop culture resurgence.

    Mattel Action Park will feature a replica of the Barbie Beach House. That will offer a number of Barbie experiences including:

    • The Barbie flying theater, taking riders on a journey from deep underwater to outer space.
    • The Dream Closet Experience, where Barbie, through state-of-the-art hologram technology, is brought to life to help curate the ultimate wardrobe.
    • The Barbie Rooftop where guests can enjoy a selection of signature pink beverages perfectly paired with sweet and savory snacks while enjoying panoramic views of the property.


    The new park, which is on track to open in 2024 will also have multiple Hot Wheels-themed roller coasters and a multi-level go-kart track themed to the beloved toy cars.

    Mattel may be opening at the right time
    Both Disney and Universal Studios have experienced some level of slowing business at their Florida theme parks. That can be blamed at least partially on people having more economic worries than they did last year, largely due to many Americans being worried about keeping their jobs.

    It can cost over $2,000 in tickets for a family of four to visit Universal Studios or Disney World, a price that does not include food, hotel, or travel. That's a big number during the best of times and it's a harder pill for some to swallow during this period of economic uncertainty.

    Six Flags and SeaWorld parks are sort of poor substitutes for a Disney or Universal trip, but Mattel Action Park may not be. It won't equal, or really come close to what the two big players offer, but the Barbie factor, plus a lower price (pricing has not been set for the new park) could win the Mattel park some customers.

  9. INTERESTING SITUATION HERE.

    ACHR IS UP 24% 1 MONTH AND JOBY IS DOWN 24% 1 MONTH. THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT. SURE ACHR GOT A MILITARY CONTRACT BUT FOR LIKE 4 UNITS....

    COULD BOTH BE WRONG?

    PAIR TRADE-? I THINK WE CAN SHORT ACHR ALL THE WAY TO $4.80 AND MAYBE THE SELL OFF STOPS IN JOBY?

    OR WILL THEY BOTH DROP MORE?
