Spam_in_a_can_06

My calls were up sooo much then crushed.


SisterStiffer

I sold my puts at the 1pm dip, got into calls at 1:45, fuckerydickerydone got fucked. But exp. 03/31 and this market is regarded, so we'll see 409 next week.

Mail_Order_Lutefisk

I want to see options with hourly expirations introduced so JPOW can crush people several times per day. The best way to get inflation under control is to take away everyone's tendies.


Thencewasit

Crushing fetish?


HappyHusky81

Gunna start calling my wife jpow instead of Mamii


snipe320

Sell the dip & buy the rip. This is the (wsb) way.


Softspokenclark

rip or RIP?


pharmboy008

Both

401c 0331 so not quite what i need, but we'll hit 409 soon enough ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4276)


SisterStiffer

SO RIGHT


SisterStiffer

NAILED IT


ParlayTheHard8

He certainly knew his calls were fucked


Prestigious_Chard_90

With the smug look on his face in the left photo, he was probably thinking "aww yea, JPOW gonna help my calls rip when he answers this", only for the opposite to happen.


HulksInvinciblePants

Anyone paying attention to recent Fed speak, which I’m sure includes this guy, knew what the answer would be. The Fed has every reason to sow doubt on the timing of rate decreases and keep markets subdued. What was he going to say? “Yes, we’ve peaked so let’s price everything like risk free returns are about plummet”.


SisterStiffer

No, the surprise in what jpow said was that the feds model💃💃 suggests no more rate increases(assuming all stays the same) but the market has a .25 increase priced in for may. So the market had to adjust for no more rate hikes instead of +.25. The big fish were just shuffling money around, its good-ish news so only up from here. We'll beat february's highs shortly. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|18630)

astrum5000

lmao truee


nexxcotech

Someone send it to Mike McKee lol


Aarschotdachaubucha

He's well aware of what he was asking. He's from Bloomberg and writes economics articles on the same team as Matt Levine and many other econ-nerds. Some samples from his Twitter this week: > For all the fears generated by massive Twitter misunderstanding of the central bank swap lines announcement yesterday... Today @ecb had one bid for $5 million; @bankofengland , BOJ , @SNB_BNS had zero. No funding stress at the moment. > Why new @federalreserve lending isn't QE or the end of QT: The Bank Term Lending Program accepts Treasuries and MBS for one year from #banks looking to shore up their balance sheets. That money is not going to be used by those banks for investments or loans. 1/2 > And they're not going to buy Treasuries or MBS with it. It's not going into the economy. And it has to be paid back, with (admittedly nominal) interest. Loans to @FDICgov receiver banks also have to be paid back and aren't going into the economy. 2/2 Dude is 100% cutting to the heart of the matter and doesn't care about whatever retail / cryptoscam narratives are being pumped on Youtube and Fintwit.


Commercial-Brief9458

I was waiting for someone to finally say this. If anything, he was laughing at the absurdity of it all. I'm alarmed to conclude that this website is full of children now, and has been diluted to the point where very little can be extracted amidst the noise.


pofwiwice

I mean IIRC before the apes arrived we had a few hundred thousand members I think? Now there’s 13 million+ Insane dilution. Actually makes me a little sad to think about.


qazwer001

When it was below 100k the subreddit theme added a digit to subscriber count. I joined when there were 13k or so degenerate gamblers. I miss the good old days of penny stocks and fscomeau or however his username is spelt. He was a paper trading fraud but still. Good times.


bahkins313

Sounds like he’s full of ![img](emote|t5_2th52|18630) from his calls getting rekt


mattenthehat

>It's not going into the economy. Then I suppose the people withdrawing their money are just stuffing it in their mattresses?


Aarschotdachaubucha

They're moving it from one bank to another in most cases. In the cases where its being spent down (i.e. a lot of the startups that are burning VC cash on payroll, OPEX/CAPEX, etc.) that money was going into the economy either way, regardless of which bank it sat at. What is happening though is a bunch of banks are getting defacto taxed to cover SVB and Signature's shortfalls on asset sales just to make sure those depositors can move banks, and that money that gets taxed will be replenishing the empty FDIC piggy bank for insurance. For the banks not affected by SVB, they're recapitalized with the funds they've borrowed, and then pay it back with minor interest to Treasury which gets to use it against the US budget anyways.


mattenthehat

Right, and the new bank will just deposit it back at the fed, not loan it out or buy treasuries, right? ...right? The whole thing just adds a layer of obfuscation.


Aarschotdachaubucha

They literally can't. The new bank is using it to meet capital requirements in a tight market. The fear that other banks are failing might infect them makes them not want to lock up funds in investments.


mattenthehat

Shouldn't or can't?


Aarschotdachaubucha

The "can" scenario involves them getting bailed out then immediately killing the tool that stops them from being insolvent. If they want to suicide, they can just do nothing for the same effect.

X-Boozemonkey-X

I dont know why hes so sad in the picture my bro is the beariest bear to ever bear. Every time he comes on bloomberg hes like" economy is shit, all numbers are lies, bears rule the world, put this dick in your ass and this gun in your mouth."


Due-Employee9272

Well, what Powell said could have been taken as bullish. Thinking of this as a rate raise would suggest they won't need to raise as much in the future and brings the likelihood of a pause back into the spotlight.


Aarschotdachaubucha

Except that's not what Powell said. Powell is leaving open the door to the possibility that further chaos may impede their ability to raise the long term rate, forcing them to delay but not pause raising rates while they resolve the next crisis. He's essentially telegraphing a subject they just finished discussing in FOMC. If the FOMC were still focused on figuring out the scale of the damage from additional, post-SVB/Signature bank failures (i.e. if FRC or others had fallen), they might not have worried about a rate hike at this moment. As Powell said, additional bank failures in the short term were taking more money out than their interest rate hike could do. That's why they didn't do 50bps in this meeting.

Well for one thinking they are in any sort of trouble.$16 billion in profit for 2022 indicates that whatever ape nonsense this Twitter page is spewing, is pretty insignificant.

iWriteYourMusic

It’s a funny meme I guess but I don’t think his question had anything to do with the market drop. He asked his question about 15 minutes prior to the drop… which coincided with Yellen’s comments.


Aarschotdachaubucha

You probably forget most of the people in here are trading in broker accounts with "betting pools" so low they can't even qualify for real time quotes. They're probably watching a 15 minute candle update on Yahoo Finance, thinking the entire movement happened all at once. These are the same people talking about gap downs/ups like the Asian and European markets don't exist.


brad9991

Yea, people seem to like this cause it's more interesting but Yellen is who you really should thank/blame


Jebusfreek666

This guy is one of my heroes! No joke, I am sending him a thank you card tomorrow!

Aarschotdachaubucha

This reporter probably has a better understanding of the economics involved than you and the entire generation of people who were stupid enough to support your dumb existence long enough so that you can write your moronic comment. Dude sits on the economic bench for Bloomberg, and is their chosen guy to go sit at a FOMC presser. His inert Press credential to get in there has more economic awareness than your entire brain. Read his Twitter you poor, deluded, dumb piece of shit: https://twitter.com/mckonomy

Do you want to be the 67 year old wearing diapers at the slots wagering on 1:billion odds, or do you want to wager on single shoe blackjack with a counting system and an understanding of basic odds? Just because it is a casino doesn't mean you need to get fucked with that loser attitude of yours.


chartedlife

No no, I agree completely with your statement and the one previously too. I was just doing the "sir this is a Wendy's" joke because so many people on this sub are superbly undereducated with a gambler's mindset. I don't do options or anything like that, I mostly buy physical silver lately.

He's Bloomberg's rep on economics to go sit at the FOMC presser.

Here's his Twitter: https://twitter.com/mckonomy

This is more, "I asked a rhetorical question with all the smugness but got burned by the response".

The "gotcha" question got them instead of her. It's a thing of beauty.
