I opened $CLF VERTICAL 240726 CALL 16.5/CALL 17.5$ ,⛏️ This mining ticker jumped out at me for a bearish play! Cleveland-Cliffs has seen its stock tumble 12.83% in the past month, underperforming both the Basic Materials sector and the S&P 500, which gained 2.83%. With upcoming earnings expected to reveal a stark 94.2% drop in EPS to $0.04 and an 11.8% decrease in revenue to $5.28 billion year-over-year, the outlook appears grim. The full-year projections are similarly bleak, anticipating earnings of $0.48 per share and revenues of $21.05 billion, marking significant declines from the previous year. Given these figures, a short bear call spread might be a decent wager. 🤞
Top Mining Companies Commit Billions To Zambia’s Copper Industry
Last week I had the privilege of participating in a YPO (Young Presidents’ Organization) event held in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. One of the main topics of discussion was investment opportunities in neighboring Zambia, a country that, despite its challenges, is a rising star on the African continent, due largely to its copper exports. I was honored to meet Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema, whose pro-business and reform-oriented stance has attracted attention from international investors since his inauguration in August 2021. Zambia, a landlocked country in south-central Africa and the continent’s 17th largest, has shown remarkable resilience. It has a common law judicial system, the same as the U.K. and the U.S. Economic growth

TSLA Truth - Deliveries continue to drop and margins will too
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ HEADLINE: Deliveries of 440,000 BEAT estimates of 438,000! TRUTH: Deliveries continue to drop and margins will too. Important context: Deliveries were DOWN 5% and production was DOWN 14%.I'm not sure why Fintwit is excited about these trends, but this is the market we're in.ImageWhat indication is there any significant growth is on the horizon though? Capacity isn’t being built. Models aren’t being introduced/refreshed.Robotaxis are…not here. I just don’t see why Tesla is worth 10x-20x competitors if it’s losing share.Q2 Deliveries $General Motors(GM)$ UP 1% $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ DOWN 5%Stocks reaction $Gener
$Bank of America(BAC)$ received an upgrade from Seaport Research Partners, which raised its rating from "Neutral" to "Buy" and set a price target of $48. The bank's EPS growth estimates have improved, reflecting better net interest income and asset sensitivity. From the technical, we are also seeing uptrend signal posted. This is confirmed with a nice trading above the 50-day MA period, this is encouraging, and we should be seeing another nice upside move. BAC Has More Than 20% YTD Growth Considering why analyst are upgrading BAC, we could see that BAC has managed to maintain a 23.17% growth year-to-date, this is going to rise with expectation of a better EPS when BAC report their quarterly earnings on 16 July 2024 pre-market. There should be some
Q1 2024: Smashing Expectations I believe Meituan-W continues to present an intriguing opportunity in the Chinese e-commerce sector. The company recently released its Q1 2024 results, and the numbers are nothing short of impressive. Meituan reported a robust revenue growth of 26.3% year-over-year, reaching a whopping RMB 75.4 billion. This exceeded market expectations, showing that $MEITUAN-W(03690)$ is adept at maintaining strong momentum even in a competitive landscape. Meituan riders exemplify the company's expansive delivery network Profitability on the Rise What's particularly noteworthy is Meituan's improved profitability. The company's adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2024 increased by 39.7% year-over-year to RMB 7.2 billion, with an adjusted EBITDA
Case closed friends, Wall Street's old guard is just too patriotic to let the markets fall around Independence Day.Looking back at the S&P 500's price action in July, I noticed every major selloff was clustered in mid or late June, perfectly avoiding the early July 4th period. Any declines in July were just routine pullbacks within broader uptrends - leaving patriotism as the only plausible explanation.This latest June bloodletting also solely targeted chip stocks, especially Nvidia. How can a trend of opening high and selling off not qualify as a pullback?Whether July sees further downside remains to be seen ahead of earnings season. If no pre-earnings pullback, we'll likely get the nausea-inducing post-earnings sell-off again, just like last quarter.Yesterday's SPY put buying reflect
I opened $TSLA 20240705 195.0 PUT$ ,The buying hype is back for Tesla after the result beats expectation, with an expected increase in volatility. Gonna secure some premium income since it is unlikely to drop back below 200, given the increased bullish view.
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ The Man & His fans. To his many fans, Mr CEO, Elon Musk is the future. Whether that future means: - Self-driving cars (ha, ha, ha), - Brain chip implants (he should volunteer to prove his vision), - To colonized Mars (he should lead by example), or - All of the above. The fans believe in the billionaire’s ambitions and, more importantly, his capability to bring them to fruition. Why ? Doesn’t his uneven track record as both innovator and entrepreneur mean anything? If there is anything he has done “right”; that is his ability to maintains a reputation for high-tech triumph, it’s in part because he’s been a relentless self-promoter, announcing new projects at such a clip that headl

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Oh boy, back on the topic of Tesla. If you follow me, you know I'm not on the Tesla fan base, for one... I love a V8. And batteries, well I don't mind them on a drill or a rattle gun but not on my drop saw or bench saw. But even though I cringe pretty much every time Elon posts anything, because it's words that don't get followed up with actions, I have to concede one overwhelming factor in Elon's favour. My father fought in WW2 he was a signal man on a British mine sweeping boat on D day, his ship was torpedoed, he was wounded but the ship was able to limp back to port. nothing close to what American soldiers faced that day though. Anyway my point is... regarding Americans (he called you guys yanks) he said "Yanks... wh
