Well Debenhams went down for a start, or don't you class going into administration & being liquidated as failing?Originally Posted by Montello

How come you are surprised?
Governments across the globe have spent unprecedented amounts to make sure no company goes under because of Covid. None of the airline and travel companies would have made it without government support. Hotels, restaurants, movie theatres would have almost all folded if it wasn't for cheap state-guaranteed loans or outright subsidies.

Debenhams was in trouble well before the start of the crisis, and would probably have gone down possibly just as quickly. on it's DC, there may be Covid but as a comorbidity, not a COD.

Debenhams went into administration in April last year, they didn't fold because shoppers stayed away for 3 weeks. They folded because they couldn't pay bills.

Noted. Not remembered that one.
I think they were gone before COVID ...
I guess I’m surprised at the level of support the various governments have put into the sectors you describe... when it all started I expected many businesses to be forced under.
Absolute insane amounts of TSLA calls being bought with maturity tomorrow, gamma gamma gamma squeeze. Same for 07 May maturity.
Who is spending all this cash on trying to prep up the stock? Manipulation in plain sight.

Nasdaq getting killed. Doesn't look too healthy.

Does -1.85% = getting killed these days ...?
Seems we see more bigger days presently (in both directions) ...
Not so much the size of the move but the nature of it. Impressive increase in volatility.

Coinbase now down 40% from the launch day. Microstrategy and Argo Blockchain down 50% from their tops three months ago.
Maybe sanitiy is making a comeback?

Oh, you were correct. The quarterly 'leaked' email from Elon came today: https://electrek.co/2021/05/06/tesla...-this-quarter/
Did cause a quick spike to $690 pre-opening, but fell like a stone after market open.
When even the company pumps don't move the stock anymore....

Just bought some Coinbase at $260.

I would also say that RIOT is currently a very good buy at $32ish.
No idea why the miners like MARA, RIOT and ARB are all dropping today, when Bitcoin is steady.
Because they are all hyped-up garbage.

Fell into this trap, sold my long S&P and gold position, was good for a day and now both popped to upside.
I still see a very meaningful correction very soon, but this wasn't it. Frustrating when you are chasing whipsawing markets from the wrong side.
Better take a day break.

Seems the markets like the Tory's doing well

Once again the electorate surprises me ... Torys expanding their reach into MORE former Labour heartlands ...
Usually the by-elections are an opportunity to remind the government they don't have a complete free hand ... but it seems they do; and typically that is good for big business ...
Politics frowned upon so won't comment in detail, markets though like stability, nutter Trump has gone and markets Wil like some security that PM Sunak will be in power for a while

Is Musk on SNL? Will he say something dumb? I've fired up Kraken and swiped right for Doge fun, come on Elon let's do this
Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Don't think Elon is capable of not saying dumb stuff.
It's a live show, so anything can happen. Either they really take him apart on stage, or he does it himself, or he does a blatant pump, or is incredible boring and unfunny. Or all of the above. Should be interesting.

For what it's worth, I think Doge will drop 50% next week.

Sounds like a good plan. It may still happen...

VET up another 13% today, my good friend became a millionaire a couple of weeks ago from an initial 50k deposit.
Crypto is genuinely crazy but there is real money to be made in the short term.
May I ask, out of ignorance and curiosity, two questions?
Did he manage to withdraw his investment into £££?
Did he pay tax on his gain?
He hasn’t withdrawn any, he said he’s waiting for it to hit a pound to withdraw. At that point he will be a multimillionaire.......
Or it can all go bang and he ends up with nothing.
I haven't done a million but a few hundred thousand. It's 20% on your profit made. You get £12,300 tax free capital gains ( x 2 with the wife) hard to avoid unless you sell OTC as coinbase or binance will inform hmrc.
In short your man's mate above will pay 20% on everything above 75k
Brave. I'd get the funk out now.
Next week is Tesla week. Big time.

I do agree. But a lot of my friends have been telling me to get out since 2017. They all said in 2018 they would of got out at the top back then. I've had to listen to them tell me how they would have cashed out at the top. Now when they tell me they would cash out now I can say, you already did.
I have taking money in chunks this year. I have around £200k left. But I always said this time round I'd get out when every numpty on Facebook is in. But it's harder than it sounds.
Fair play, I understand that.
I'd at least take back the principle and 30% profit, roll it in to something else, leave the rest to run if he thinks there's more upside. Sod the diamond hand bravado.
Elon Musk is the "Conor McGregor" of Business (though at least McGregor doesn't look like a mutant!). Chances are good that the S.E.C. will be reeling him in on Monday.
Watch him on SNL tonight, first time ever it is live streamed across the world. Six hours to go.

Honest question: Is this unfunny and creepy or am I just so biased that I don't recognise something funny when I see it?

I found it just a little awkward when his mother appeared and neither of them are clearly masters of the Autocue..
Maybe we all need a little more understanding and tolerance of what Asperger's and Autism are in general and how they affect peoples lives who are just wired differently.
Should we all be a lot less cynical and mind set in our ways to what we may perceive as "Normal"
Clearly Musk is very much on the spectrum and has achieved greatness with his thinking which may make many feel at times that he is like a James Bond villain but it is because of his thinking that he has achieved what he has..
Every action and Tweet he makes can be misconstrued in whichever ever way we choose to suit our bias and we live in an crazy era of social media when it seems it is anything but social and seemingly Twitter has become portal for the deranged.
I find him interesting and look forward to watching his career progress
i often imagine how individuals such as Einstein.. Galileo and the like would have been perceived if the internet had existed would they have received the same attention with their thinking.
He seems less Aspergerey when doing Tesla promo/ product launches and on that smoking a joint clip though I'll admit I've seen very little footage of him. Maybe I'm cynical but this seemed like an attempt to humanise/ sell himself to a wider audience...Aspergers aside, the pump and dump/ manipulation of dog coin should still be looked at.
It will be difficult to prosecute the pumping of Doge as it's not regulated. But what happened at Tesla will be the focus of more than one criminal investigation, and it will begin next week.
He is going down for being the huckster that he is, Asperger's or not.

Hear, hear.
I think he’s a clever guy just playing the situation to his own agenda / advantage and seems there are no real limits to him so he’s just cracking on. Nice work if you can get it.
I regret not getting on the doge train as there have been some crazy gains over the last few months but I have always tried to stick to projects that actually have actual use cases...slow and steady and all that.
I wasn't aware we had much of a crypto community on TZ !
