[+28] u/DrSeuss1020: Whenever you feel bad about yourself, just take a stroll on over to the AMC sub. These are people that are allowed to vote [+24] u/ateranol: I hear bears are saying this is just a dead cat bounce from the dot-com crash [+23] u/kodaksdad2020: I’m from the future. SPY just closed its 247th Green Day in a row. The strait of Hormuz has been filled with concrete and permanently blocked. OIL just hit 216. Peace talks are starting in 10 days. SPY just hit 1,017 [+19] u/sisterbethany: I’m rebranding from ‘employee’ to ‘AI meat slave’. Give me a 400% raise. [+18] u/whagon-wheel: I am excited to announce that I am pivoting from professional goonance to AI infrastructure effective immediately. [+16] u/worktogethernow: I am 100% sure this can't go up more. I bought calls.

[+14] u/Luca_Hyper: u should always inverse wsb if u hear all the idiots celebrate it's time to buy puts when the idiots think the world is about to collapse it's time to buy calls, don't follow the sheep they are always getting fucked one way or another because the MMs wanna shakeout all their money so the difference between the rich and the poor gets larger, market is being completely irrational rn [+14] u/Street-Badger: If there’s one thing I know, it’s that 🥭’s word is his bond.  We can definitely count on a peace deal and ongoing ATHs, rather than a premeditated midweek crash on the 22nd when troop staging is complete and the ceasefire expires.  He wouldn’t dump the market just like in April 2025, right? [+13] u/Nexaz: Welp who’s ready for another day of completely normal and rational trading [+13] u/Late-Combination5060: Has no one seen the AAA national gas prices. Holy shit . Nevada hits 100 degrees in march and $5 gas.  Michigan near $4. Everyone is fucked this summer . Good thing everyone drives around in 17mpg vehicles lol. All the decades of work from the 70s to make cars more efficient and we just made them heavier and overall less safe bc they are so fast and heavy and half of america is on at least 7 drugs . [+13] u/-Ophidian-: I'm making money every day but I'm still disgusted by this market [+12] u/UnivalveX: all signs lead to a pullback after a 75 year historic +11% two week pump based off nothing but a few tweets and two tacos.. hence why we will pump another +1% today [+12] u/ScioX: I will be the very last bear [+12] u/Character_Pirate_152: Hegseth quoting the fake bible quote from Pulp Fiction during a bible gathering sums everything up nicely. [+11] u/hv876: Another 1% day and we would be at 7100 on SPX. Imagine saying that when 🥭 was talking about a whole civilization 2 weeks ago.

[+7] u/diamond12923: People start talking about 800 lol [+7] u/igotthis_man: Missed out on a generation bull run this week smh [+6] u/pink_ego_box: https://preview.redd.it/2asevhoxykvg1.jpeg?width=820&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4bcf533fdb12c0b74311c5010d55026fc193befc Textbook Wyckoff distribution, aka the biggest bull trap ever.

Especially the last one. Reversal at RSI > 80 on the QQQ 4 hour is incredibly well backtested going back 25 years. [+6] u/LasyKuuga: I am hereby announcing my pivot from human to AI 7x net worth here I come 😊 [+6] u/Homeless-Coward-2143: Even the thread is being confusing this morning. [+6] u/ALittleWorseEveryday: Puts at the top would be too obvious they’ll at least wait for this afternoon, or more like never [+6] u/ajiw370r3: Why is not everybody going long on oil futures?

Angry 🐻 noises [+5] u/jasperCrow: Almost anytime you hear “most consecutive days since x years ago” usually means the trend is bout to reverse [+5] u/crywhenugetolder: So MYSE stated that it is developing privacy-first AI agents to help its users manage their personal media, photos, videos and messages. Not sure if this will shoot up more at open like BIRD did. [+5] u/HalaMadridPapaFlo: lmao a soccer ber asked in my group if the market can crash today after Real and Barca were forced out of the Champions League rofl [+5] u/Yasqweenn: Wow, SPY.
