NIO stock (ticker: NIO) was up almost 10% to $23.73 in premarket trading after the bullish call.
Lai thinks China's EV penetration will be four times higher by 2025, meaning that about 20% of all new cars sold in China would be battery powered. That is good news for all EV players. Lai also rates the stock of Xpeng (XPEV) a Buy, with a $27 price target. He doesn't cover the other pure-play Chinese EV startup Li Auto (LI).

Building a serious holding in NIO. See ya'll in 2025 :cheers:

Nice! Now I'm going to explore playing an options 10% dip between now and next week.
I love stocks that go bullish. They're almost always overbought and subsequently will correct on the downside.


:yes:

Evidently JPM pt is $40 be careful with those Puts

Absolutely, I don't use them on stocks like $NIO, $NKLA etc.
Those stocks carry "sentimental" and "hopeful" vibes for investors. So they tend to hold onto them and don't sell them readily unless there's a big jump in price action and they have to take profits.

Let's assume we are headed for another Hard Downward trend.... what PUTS should we be playing and how far out? or do we just trim the fat and wait for the SALE?(buy the dip) and on what?

yall stay fucking with them short term options huh? yall some brave mofos

I've made more money on short term(put options) than any other play.
Think about the psychology aspect of the market and the times we're in(election, covid, uncertainty everywhere).
Are buyers more likely to buy and hold(bullish) with gains or are they more likely to sell and take profits(Bearish)?

For example this morning there was noise about $NIO double, triple, quadruple etc in price action. Good...I played the opposite position and waited for the bullshit action to start consolidating and place my put option just below it with an expiration a few weeks out(time asset). Heck as soon as I'm done with this post I'm going to close that position up a nice profit.

I'm no longer playing the price action/market(too much manipulation there)...I'm playing investor's psychology and the strong desire to take profits as soon as they have them in this market driving that overbought position right into my waiting basket.

BTW: Same thing with Verizon and it going bullish because of the Apple event. Kindly place a put option and closed it out this morning for a nice gain. The bullish position was, like most stocks, artificial. It wasn't based on anything internal from Verizon. It was solely based on a mention and FOMO driving the stock bullish.

$FSLY tanking. That would have been a beautiful short.

It would...But you have to have some hint that it's coming. As you know earnings estimates and actual reports don't mean much. There are too many examples of positive earning and the stocks still crashes and vice versa.

This is one of those times when it's too late to play the short position.

But, Perhaps the long position can be played?

Need to do some research and find out what happened and what's the future outlook.

It's starting to be part of my normal process to jolt down the day's top gainers/losers AH and see if there's a way to position myself short/long in the next couple of days.

Typically strong companies will bounce back in a short time frame. Weak companies may not as quickly if at all.



On CNBC's "Fast Money Halftime Report," Jon Najarian said he bought American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) calls today at the $13 strike with an expiration date of Oct. 23.

Najarian says that TSA data showing 900,000 passengers per day is not great, but is a big move up from the beginning of the pandemic. He’s crossing his fingers this TSA data is a good sign people are getting back on planes.

Najarian said he also bought Fastly (NYSE:FSLY) calls with a strike price of $135 that expire in December. He noted since the calls expire in December, he will probably be in them for about two months.


^^^^OUCH!!!!! :smh:

QCLN - 15% of top holdings NIO / Tesla

Got in at like $20 when I didn't want to drop that big money on Tesla..... Its about $50 now.....

I may have mentioned here before but it's made up of all clean energy type companies..... Check it out

expecting green energy to do well since people think the dems will win
And if he doesn’t they are still a good long term hold
You can always dump them the night of the election if it looks like trump wins

Yea its not going anywhere long term. They have done some shuffling around, I have shares in 2 separate accounts. I mean 138% this past year. With Covid and retard in office. Its given me a great return but man if I could go back just 6 months when it was $20..... :puke:
