Stock picks

TSLA earnings today, any bets?  I?m guessing down 8-10% in after hours.  Not buying puts though.... super expensive!

I'm risk tolerant and not touching Tesla at all.  I've been selling out of the money puts on Redfin and Zillow with good success the past few months with the real estate pick up.
 
Welp, looks like I was wrong but I bet Options sellers still win here as the move AH doesn't justify the premium.
 
Picked up a little MRNA today.  Have limit orders at lower price if it drops some more ($68 this morning from the patent ruling).  Also keeping eye on IBIO, had bought few hundred shares earlier this month before it went crazy.  Might pick up more shares if price is right.

An acquaintance in the immunology field reviewed the research papers and in his opinion, IBIO's proprietary technology, plant based "natural" ingredients and single dose vaccine is very attractive.  He also believes the Moderna vaccine is superior to Oxford's and Pfizer's.

However since there are so many players gunning for the same target, the situation may change at any time.  It's possible that a dark horse runs in and sideswipes everyone with some miracle cure.  So don't bet your life savings on them.

I am also concerned that the political leadership may pressure Pfizer to release vaccine for general use a little too early after recent $2 billion deal.  But that's for another discussion.

Picked up a little BA @ $165.  Despite the bad news I don't think Uncle Sam will let them bleed to death.  Analyst forecast for BA is all over the map, though not as crazy as TSLA.  LoL.

I have to step in and say something. Boeing is having trouble regarding the recertification of 757 Max aircraft.

I bought Boeing at $155 in early June and wondering if I should stick it out or not.

5yrs from now - they will be fly and riding new highs - to your point, they have a very bumpy road until they get there and there will likely be a lot of volatility along the journey.

I only bought 3 shares ($500).  Might pick up more if price drops.

But to your point, in addition to BA's aircraft woes, air travel is way down.  We don't really know if and when air travel will return to previous levels, as many business trips are now replaced by zoom meetings and people are gun-shy with taking vacations and cruises.

Baron Rothschild said to buy when there is blood in the streets.  I think BA and GE are bleeding but not mortally wounded.  I also think the government would not let them bleed to death.  Just my $0.02.
 
I keep selling a few hundred out-of-the-money calls and puts on AAL each week. I'm up over $50k doing this on AAL since April. Looks of support around $10-11 and resistance around $13-14 but that can change week to week.

Just an FYI - It appears the Chief Medical Officer for Moderna (MRNA) just sold out of his entire position:
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001682852/000112760220022237/xslF345X03/form4.xml

This was under a 10b5-1 plan so he has his exercises scheduled out. So when setting it up he would elected to sell the entire shares related to the exercise. He still has about half a million options just for those two initial option grants.

This isn?t a situation where he knows something regarding the vaccine as it getting out before the stock tanks

Where was the stock tip to put my entire life savings into Kodak last week? That would have been helpful.

If we had a working crystal ball, you may have been better off putting your life savings in OSTK (overstock.com) back in March at $2.50/s.  It has performed better than Wayfair and Kodak.
 
Apple over $450 in midday trading.  At this rate it will be $500+ by the time of the split end Aug.

Not complaining though, I have a decent amount in my Roth.
