The Income Investment Report is Here

It was a long week and I am glad the market will be closed for the next two days. In the meantime, I invite you to check out and subscribe to the IIR, created by Cain Thaler. If you want some good dividend ideas or ones to avoid, crafted by a trained mathematician, this is for you.

It looks like I’ll close the day flat, coming back from a 0.8% deficit, earlier this afternoon. I’ll take it.

    GPRO will 100% beat 4th quarter earnings and then be the best short of the year as it trades down to 2x sales. Good job to their CEO pushing through all their inventory to have a blow out quarter, all the while donating his shares to a charitable trust whilst telling others not to sell. What a dolt.

      Good luck losing all your money, like an idiot, on that short.

          The difference between myself and the other shorts is that I have ridden this name long till recently and will wait till after the blowout quarter to finally short.

          Moreover, those “shorts” calling for $40 on lock up expiration are lunkheads. If they had talked to anyone who knows the CEO they would have known that no one was gonna sell in substantial quantities.

            Go short a 3-d printer company with zero revenues. I don’t understand the obsession with shorting popular trends.

            God willing, GPRO gets back to $90, more meat on the bones than a stupid 3-d printing company.

            Also, I am the last person to obesses about shorting “popular trends” ..I would rather ride the trend, makes my life much easier. But, GPRO is a special situation. Between actions of the CEO during this quarter to boost earnings, lack of proprietary products that are meaningful or actually worth anything substantial, and his actions in sneakily getting rid of his shares, a long-dated put spread is in order.

            Other than that, you’re right. Most shorts are dicksuckers.

            And if I have heard from Leon Shaulov to short GPRO, then I’m fucking doing it. 😉

      Some shorts believed it was going to $20 after the lock up, someone even said it will be as cheap as a gallon of gas! Personally, I welcome all the microbes to short this, I`d love to see a 15% squeeze when it`s $100. Squeezes down here are no fun!

    I made $40 today, in spite of the spy finishing off. Beating all my comps and crushing so far in 2015.

    100% agree with harper. GPRO and YELP will be the best shorts in 2015.

    It has been so long since i was positive on the year I am really basking in the success of being up .04% in 2015. I can tell with certainty that this is going to be a big year.

    I did pretty good with my GPRO puts. I did get a little burned getting some Christmas Eve, stopped out pretty quick. I’ve moved on to TSLA anyways.

    There is a real long con feel starting to hit the tape. Some gems blowing the fuck up include “Shale revolution” “BRIC’s” “Emerging markets” “Alternative Energy” “Nat Gas anything”. Future long cons? Throw a dart at any hype tech. Social media and cyber security are all you hear about on the old people evening news. This time could be different though. Granny and Grandpa going all in on FB and HACK could be a good thing.
