Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

I’m kicking myself in the nuts this AM. Got scared and sold my positions this morning as it started to dip. Had a stop loss that I should have let ride….still a nice day:

Almost seems like someone is manipulating SMCI stock.
News released after market close on Friday that SMCI will be added to the S&P 500. The stock jumped 12% after hours. I'm sure there are going to be some irritated people on Monday. Those longs that decided to keep the short call position in the $910 to $1015 weekly strike calls will be heavy cash come Monday. I would expect SMCI to do a stock split at some point soon.
 
What’s everyone’s view on impact of adding $1T to the national debt every 100 days? Seems like yesterday we were at $32T now we are fast approaching $35T. Don’t here much from the media, Congress or economists

Debt snowball is picking up steam. Don't step in front of it, cause it won't be stopping anytime soon.

Obviously tax receipts aren't keeping pace and billions in refunds are taking a bite. Yet some want to cut taxes even more.
 
Don't forget many of the individual rates that changed in the 2017 TCJA will expire at the end of next year.
jryoung wants his SALT deductions back, I see.

"Under the current rule, there is a $10,000 SALT deduction cap for single and joint-filing taxpayers who deduct local property, income and sales tax on their federal return. This deduction cap was created under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TJCA) and is expected to sunset in 2026."

I wasn't aware that the Feds allowed sales tax to be deducted. Maybe some states do.

Up to 10k right now. Standard deduction for married filing jointly is 20k, so that is what is used by the overwhelming majority of taxpayers today. If the TJCA sunsets, that will be a different story, particularly in big tax states like California and New York.

Looking likely that it will be renewed at this moment. 🙂
 
$987 now. Can one take comfort in the fact that those who bought at $1135 are expecting it to go higher? I'm out for now, but too volatile IMO to jump back in.
by MSTR instead!! YOLO!!!

Like I said, no one cares. Even the people screaming about the size of the debt don't care enough to reverse the tax cuts.

Yep. It is the greater of your state income tax or state sales tax. In a state like Texas with no state income tax we get to do a calculation based on our income of the estimated state sales tax we paid, we don't have to keep the receipts or anything for the deduction. If you buy a large item like a car you get to do a specific deduction on that above and beyond the calculated amount.

Then you add the property taxes in as well. For people with expensive houses that live in states with a state income tax it is pretty easy to hit that $10,000 limit.
