All too fitting that dickpunching becomes the dominant topic of the Stock Market thread.

Wow good thing I only bought one fb call. Holy fuck. The question is whether you BTFD tomorrow morning and buy another call looking for a bounce like you did with NFLX.
I will be sitting that one out.

If I wasn't in Nashville for a work conference that prevented me from checking my phone I would. |

Prob not going to play amzn er, too much of a coward. If it goes bad it pretty much wipes out my portfolio. Even though I do think they'll crush. Early reports....your gut was right. |

Lol I buy fb calls and it plummets. I sell my amzn call an hour ago and it skyrockets. I am still up overall 50% since I started but God damnit. |

Made most of that back, but this tariff news absolutely obliterated all of those gains. Holding way too many AAPL calls to come out of this in one piece.

Have you thought about selling further out of the money calls against your longs to create a vertical call? While it obviously caps your profits, it also tends to make a binary play (where you end up on the wrong side) a bit less painful.

I would not advise anyone try to time the market with their employer sponsored retirement plans.

It's also worth noting that most of the recent losses have come from large cap growth stocks, which is exactly where all of the gains from earlier in the year had come from. Value and int'l have held up well during this rough patch. If you're using an asset allocation approach you should be fine.

Kind of related I guess, those of you who have financial planners: what are their fees like?

Kind of related I guess, those of you who have financial planners: what are their fees like? You’re going to find there’s a variety of answers on this based on what kind of planner or advisor you’re using, and what kind of products you’re investing in or purchasing. Some planners will charge a flat fee to invest or work with them, and some will have a front-load fee, meaning they take out x% at the beginning when you initially put money into an account. Others of these people will be paid in commission, meaning there’s fees built into the product in other ways. Even different still is advisory, which is actively managed accounts. This is what will come with an annual percentage fee but oftentimes these accounts can perform better because there’s a team of actuaries making the decisions about the account based on the asset allocation model. The fees can also depend on how much you have invested, and when you hit certain breakpoints you’ll have lower fees. I won’t give exact percentages you should be looking for here because if any of my information is off the people who can be helpful are not legally allowed to reply to this question and they may have a small aneurysm at what I’ve written already. The bottom line is that you should play around with an online investment calculator or two and look at the long run difference between a 1% fee and a 2% fee. It’s a lot, if you were curious. Don’t be afraid to talk to someone and then walk because the advice they’re giving you seems sketchy or the fees seem weirdly high. |

The fees actually seem weirdly low (none higher than 1%) and I wasn't sure if that was normal. The consulting and advising is all free.
Also it's my friend's husband which is a little weird.
