Direxion Daily S&P 500 Bear 3X Shares New (SPXS) Options

They haven’t paid OPEX in a few
✅🏦 on this one too early hoping we get a little rally into YE 🪟👗 before the real ⛷️
🧨🧨🧨

I’m bailing now. Hit bottom range of my target
OPEX and all the other dressings for YE.
This one is a little extra manipulated, too
Hate these etfs

Can't quite bring myself to jump in here. Lots of hand-wringing by pundits, and yet the S&P 500 is still over 6,000. I think we'll drop below 4,000, but the question is when. Might not be until 2026 that the wheels start to fall off, and I don't want to hold this that long. Maybe I should start trading this. Chance of small gains as well as chances of being in this if and when the market collapses.

Market not pretty rn
Bear trap to fuck everyone going into OPEX next week
All in my opinion of course
I’ll enjoy the volatility for now

I've been surprised at how slowly this bear market has unfolded. But I am sticking with my cash position and I think the S&P has a long way further to drop.

Seriously, we do opposite what he say, always the wiser.

If Cramer was so good at forecasting inflation, why didn't he see this coming?

Seriously, the biggest inflation in 4 decades, and he entirely whiffed.

I would look for advice from someone who views inflation as a monetary phenomenon. We opened the firehose of money on the economy, and until something fairly drastic occurs to claw that back there will be no end to inflation.

And, no, in my book starting $30B in QT in June is not drastic. Nor is this tweak up in interest rates. With inflation at 7% or more, short term rates are extraordinarily negative. The Taylor Rule would have them be several points higher.

There are those who say the federal government could not withstand such rate increases given the size of our debt. But what we REALLY cannot have is prolonged periods with long rates up at 6 or 7%. We finance the debt mainly at the 10-year bond, so that's what we need to watch. And only dampening inflation fears can bring that down, especially if the dollar is going to be so high and if the Fed is doing QT (selling bonds).

We have a VERY tough road ahead, and Cramer just does not have the tools to see it.

$SPXS Peak Inflation https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/05/investing-club-were-not-panicking-cramer-sees-inflation-peaking-looks-for-stock-buys.html

Economy so damaged by supply shocks, inflation, and rate increases that the markets go up, because people think the Fed won't dare damage the economy very much further.

Huh?

China pandemic so bad that oil prices drop, and this is a good thing for the markets? This is just insanity. When rates go up and P/Es fall, and when The E in P/E drops over no more stimulus and stagflation due to rising prices and China supply chain problems, the markets have a lot further to drop. A lot further.

If it starts becoming clear to people that S&P 500 is not going to get back over its 200-day moving average, this sell-off could start to accelerate.

Happy days are here again! Well, not here at this bear 3X fund, but everywhere else. Let the bubble grow!!

In my humble opinion, we are in for a wild ride in the near term. $SPXS and $SPXL will likely be great day trading opportunities.

S&P 500 back up over its 200-day MA. I am surprised. And I think we have not seen the bottom.

Reward outweighs the risk. cover your losses.. Let's see what direction this goes

S&P 500 now back down to where it was in July 2021.

Doesn't qualify as a bubble bursting yet, but probably some dead cat bounces next week?

Is S&P 500 going to close below its 200-day MA?

Everyone is saying we are not yet at panic/meltdown. The Fed is still buying assets to prop up the market. And I guess there is still some chance that inflation is transitory and all.

But the S&P500 is certainly not the best-looking chart I've ever seen.

Futures Drift Lower In Illiquid Session As Virus Fears Resurface

All the things you mention are negatives. But in this market my best guess would be S&P ends higher. Ever more margin? What could go wrong with that?

With (slightly) more hawkish fed + CPI print this Friday + geopolitical risks + the farthest assets out in the risk curve getting polaxed (eg crypto) —> where do y’all see the SNP by end of trading this Friday?

And the market is up again -- despite record valuations, impending end to Fed efforts to prop up the market, inflation looming, and now this:

Oh, but don't worry, the first cases in South Africa for one doc were mild, except for the ones that required hospitalization.

As we contemplate next week's 'quiet' Thanksgiving week, ahead of tomorrow's options expiration, traders are bracing for the now ubiquitous volatility storm that occurs on the 3rd Friday of the month... and this one will be a doozy!

Foreclosures are surging now that Covid mortgage bailouts are ending, but they’re still at low levels

Oct 14 2021
Pandemic-related mortgage bailouts are ending, and foreclosures are now rising.

Foreclosure starts jumped 32% in the third quarter of this year from the second quarter and were 67% higher than the third quarter of 2020.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/14/foreclosures-surge-67percent-as-covid-mortgage-bailouts-expire.html

And the answer is...the bulls continue to be in charge, interpreting all news as good news and overlooking any concerns.

Tomorrow is shaping up to be a pretty important day chart-wise. A strong move up and I suppose it is "happy days are hear again" and the FOMO crowd moves back in with all the cash they have. Then again, if this shows signs of deteriorating further, the next stop down is the 200-day MA. And I don't think it will stop there.

stagflation is begging to bite

Restaurant Recovery Fried As "Business Conditions Worse Now Than Three Months Ago"
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/restaurant-recovery-fried-business-conditions-worse-now-three-months-ago

... soaring food inflation, labor shortages, and logistical nightmares that have made some restaurant items nearly impossible to obtain.

....95% of restaurant operators say their restaurant experienced supply delays or shortages of key food or beverage items during the past three months.

...Costs are up – 91% of operators are paying more for food; 84% have higher labor costs; 63% are paying higher occupancy costs, but profitability is down – 85% of operators reported smaller margins than before the pandemic.

A separate study by small business networking site Alignable, conducted between Aug. 28 and Sept. 27, found that most restaurants (51%) were unable to cover their September rent.

BUZZWORDS... historic labor shortage, walk outs, shortages.

No Jab, No Job.

Thanks. ZH is using an advancers/decliners "Tick Index." Selling is very broad-based: second lowest Tick Index in history.

But this selling is still quite modest compared to, say, the 75%+ correction that Hussman sees being needed to get us back to where we are looking at halfway decent rates of return over the next 10 years. LOL!

09:42AM The US Equity Market Just Suffered Its 2nd Biggest Selling-Wave In History

I was just a couple of weeks off with my timing.

Question now is whether the 100-day MA provides support.

I do some online property searching in several very specific areas from VA to ME. And it is very clear that the market is shifting. Up until the start of the summer, price changes were all positive. Now prices are coming down.

Sonny and Cher: The beat goes on


Many, Many more of this...

Country can't decide whether to double down on massive deficit spending. Can't decide about tax increases. Can't decide whether even to continue to support majority voting.

And now the S&P 500 is flirting with support at the 50-day MA, while if you read @hussmanjp we are more overvalued with bleaker forward expected returns than at any time including 1929. And market internals are deteriorating, while we now learn that the Fed presidents were trading in the securities the Fed was buying. Talk about a "Fed put"! And with all this easy money floating around, inflation is proving a bit less transitory than the pollyannas were hoping.

Maybe the market shrugs it all off and continues to soar higher. But I am liking cash. I might generate a bit more of it next week.

Market Deep dive inbound

I'm out at a small loss. Convinced this is a bubble, but hard to time when bubbles burst.
