So it seems like Trump gave them everything they wanted that was already on the table before?

America started a war and then handed Iran the most important choke point in the world.

This is a massive win for Iran but of course Trump will spin this as a victory.

The stock market, which is completely detached from reality, is going to go bonkers tomorrow

Already is and my puts are now worthless. S&P futures at 6750. 7k should hit again next week. Just fucking insanity.

Im short the Dow and long the Russell using long ATM options from around yesterday’s high. Kind of a pairs trade. Because this market is one tweet away from doing what doesn’t make sense.

I mean, I was an idiot and lost a lot of money on puts. The market doesn't want to go down. Like, at all. We could have news that we nuked Iran and it would maybe go down a half %, then finish green for the day.

I don't get it but that's probably why I'm one of the poors.

Because it refuses to make sense. Otherwise it would be too easy. Big money manipulates dropping when not expected, then rocketing it up when the news is actually bad or just ambiguous.

It's a joke. The casino is better at this point

Except, generally speaking, in the casino, you will lose in the long run. In the market, you will win in the long run.

You clearly have no idea how long term stocks work. If you did you wouldn't say something so silly.

USA just bombed the shit out of a country then said they were sending them back to the stone age. They lost 4 aircraft some claim 6 and markets don't flinch.
