    are you guys buying today (during market open or after hours) based on the news?

    Curious if you guys are buying today (during market open or after hours) based on the news? Obviously the general market is loving the news and thinks brighter days are ahead in the near future. I am torn between wondering if that is true or whether the news driving this market today is not completely genuine…

    Either way, I put a little bit in today after hours…if it starts going down again, i will buy as it drops…if it continues to go up, at least I bought some before it continued to do so.

      The peace talk is always Monday and Tuesday. The worst of the bombings come after markets close on Fridays.

      They’re trying to fight a war without tanking the markets and it’s becoming transparent.

      Based on what news? The government constantly lies to manipulate markets with the goal of benefiting insiders, so best to just have a plan and stick with it, imo.

      The market is future looking. If there is a ceasefire and hormuz opens (what the market hopes and could be possible) any damage to infrastructure and the economy doesn’t matter to the market. All the bad inflation data will be spun with “but we expect oil prices to come down leading to lower inflation soon now that the conflict has ended”.

      Ofcourse it needs to end first. Anyone’s guess at this point. One thing is for certain, if you are a long term investor, it doesnt matter, stocks will rise back up in due time.

      I bought a little since it was oversold and just in case I am wrong, but I donā€™t think we have touched the bottom yet

      I de-risked my long position a bit and increased my hedge. Positioned for long if market pops, but I’m now also positioned for <6300. I don’t trust this one. Seems like a typical relief rally after a watershed sell off.

      The options market is still opening new puts on SPY and SPX for $20M-$55M. I do not see any similar behaviour on the long side.

      I bought yesterday, but thatā€™s only because I got paid. Dollar cost averaging for the win.

      Buy in the dips, sell on the pumps. Don’t see that changing any time soon.

      This whole negotiation is a sham. No meaningful progress has been made. Trumps claim of allowing the war to end without opening the strait was also followed up by reopening it at a later date. There’s no way Iran would agree to a ceasefire that simply allows the US to rebuild its military to come back to attack it again.

      If there is anything I learned from this presidency itā€™s that you hold

      Talk is cheap. Did everyone buying miss the news on the bombing overnight, the tanker blown up and the troops being sent over?

    23. Livueta_Zakalwe on

      Iā€™m de-risking and watching. Until proven otherwise, this was an oversold relief rally, a short squeeze, a dead cat bounce, a typical bear market face ripper. And last day of quarter typical nonsense. Even if the Strait opened tomorrow, thereā€™s been massive infrastructure damage throughout the Gulf, and best-case scenario is a 4-5% oil and gas shortage for a few years.

      Yes, I always leave money sitting around to reflexively buy with depending on the news /s

      Lets see where the market is friday. I bet there are lots of buying opportunities to follow over the next few weeks.

      I added to my Microsoft and Apple positions given possible cessation of Middle East tensions. Long-term holds for me. I like each company prospects and feel they are undervalued presently.

      im holding cash waiting to see what happens Thursday after market closes. Israel isn’t going to stop and let America just walk away from their wars.

    28. JohnBrownsErection on

      I was buying a lot yesterday but it was coincidental, not a strategic move.

      Today was quite a good day as a result.

    30. 50CalRound on

      Lmao and the strait is still closed. The rally today was just a relief rally and will give up the gains once reality gets priced in. Leaving the war and letting iran do what they want is not going to cut oil prices. Infrastructure has already been significantly damaged, and there have already been production cuts in the gulf. Furthermore if the US leaves iran to do its business it will most certainly exact a toll as reparations.

      Most people try to time this based on news and end up overthinking it. One day itā€™s bullish, next day everything flips and youā€™re stuck second guessing every move.

      If youā€™re long term, it honestly doesnā€™t matter that much whether you buy at open or after hours. What matters is that you keep buying through the noise instead of waiting for the ā€œperfectā€ moment that never comes.

      Iā€™ve found itā€™s way easier to just stick to a plan and ignore the headlines. I write about this from a normal income perspective, simple stuff that actually works, itā€™s on my profile if you want more.

      I was about to place an order for silver last night @ 755 pm. Didn’t. Trump tweets at 815 pm.Ā  Watched it rip 8% today FML.Ā

      Brighter days are not ahead outside of the market, friend lol. Weā€™re a complete fucking shit show

    39. Pinball_and_Proust on

      Any time one on my stocks is down 4%, I add to it. I never add when it’s green.

    40. Sampson2003 on

      I was 60% out since 7k, rebought yesterday and sold today, now Iā€™m 80% out, hopefully Iā€™m not an idiot. Path to 6200 was coming in May either way when data cracked as inflation shows its head. Now I think 5800s low area is very possible but Iā€™d be back in for the road to 8k in between there.

      Look you do better avoid listening to a person with no principle and credibility. Invest heavily into DJT stock you may come out ahead by accident.

      Bought a few shares here and there but seriously…. Trump is in over his head currently and his normal process of manipulating the markets is fucked if Iran does pretty much anything outside of his narrative
