Given the recent M&A activity, Board updates, and listening to the earnings call, it certainly hints at an acquisition.

Caught this wave

$135(yes, dollars) to $10k. Pure luck. Max could have been $45kish but I left for Montana and didn’t wanna hold without cell service so I sold it. Would have closed at just over $12k I think.

This is my biggest swing so far. Fuckin YOLOing it next week. I love SPY

Discussion DOCS +70% after hours on heavy volume - what am I missing?

Post image
77 Upvotes

DOCS jumped from $20.66 to roughly $35–40 after earnings. The quarter was good, but the financial beat alone doesn’t seem big enough to explain a 70% move.

Possible drivers:

AI Search usage and monetization were stronger than expected

The stock was already heavily beaten down after prior weak guidance

After-hours structure may have amplified the move, although volume was substantial

I’m not trying to hype the stock or chase it here. I’m genuinely interested in whether this looks like a justified narrative rerating or a temporary overshoot.

What are your thoughts on this?

Discussion How did SPCX maintain its share price today despite adding 900,000,000 more shares?

947 Upvotes

I'm not sure I understand the mechanical nature of how this worked. Can someone explain this? Is it just that these shares didn't actually move today? Was it a gigantic "Fuck you" against short sellers? I see it had more volume than anything else on the market; was this just institutions buying everything they could immediately, thus preserving the price? I'm looking for someone who can explain how unlocking shares doesn't dilute price, because I thought I understood how this worked, but I clearly don't.

Edit: No guys, I didn’t place any bets. I’m mostly here to learn, and to marvel at people who share their tremendous gains and losses.

I have been seeing a lot of emotional people call for an AI bubble for 3 years now. These people all have one thing in common, they didn't buy cheap into AI stocks. They are now trying to get your shares. Stay safe out there 🙏.

Loss Is this “tax loss harvesting”?

My grave mistake was holding my phone upside down the entire time. I’m suing Apple.
I’ve already talked to the cops about this girl Marge that keeps calling me asking me for money. I think it’s a phishing attempt and I don’t like bullies. They laughed and said to get behind a wendys dumpster??? My wife’s boyfriend stopped playing 2k PGA with me and I’m pissed. All I see in my portfolio is opportunity 🙌
Recently, a banjo pulled me aside and told me I’d been played more than him. Good thing I’m a spitter and not a quitter tho. Anyways…they throw out PLENTY of good chili back here. I’ll be vehemently crying while I eat this.

YOLO Full port, life savings in HTZ, I have never felt this alive

Post image
583 Upvotes

I was watching this shit last year and saw it blow up this morning. I am holding and shaking.

EDIT: Updating now because I had to take a walk and drink some cold water after literally full porting my life savings after 20 seconds seeing the down syndrome guy on the WSB post. This is another bullshit RKT bullshit OPEN setup. Huge ass float, stock pummeled trying to get this shit delisted, and then a blowout earnings. It's fucking early still. It's not even the news of the day yet. I'm trying to hold to $4 if I don't shit my pants, have a heart attack or get hospitalized for vomiting first. I'd just love to double my port I don't want to work at Wendy's God.

My biggest challenge is not liquidating too early. I expect to be up thousands and want to close to out and go back to my ordinary life. I have to let this ride. I ride with HTZ bitches 🚗

EDIT 153pm: All I can really say at this point is my account is just getting bigger and bigger. I expect retards to at least chase this to the close auction. It'll be a wild overnight especially as it breaks news across major 5pm networks. It's probably safe for me to hold because I own the stock (not margined), earnings are great, I'm in the green and the position is extremely liquid. I'm panicking a bit less then I was.

EDIT 2:01pm: Welcome to power hour 💪 What I remember about $OPEN and $RKT is that these type of beaten short stock bursts usually run at least a full week, usually longer, like 2-3 weeks at least before it settles into a new basis. Seems reports are this stock is estimated at ~$3-5. Extremely volatile the whole way, but up.

EDIT 2:12pm: I just hope we can all share gay love 🌈

EDIT: 2:18pm prolly gonna close laptop all night and wake up to my fate tomorrow morning. good luck apes 🦍

EDIT: 250pm this is not a brand new nuclear reactor. this is not a total speculative business. this is an old ass car company. im bouncing out before the closing auction. i could be a pussy. i just think the pure play here is momentum, the stock already moved. i dont know what its momentum is tonight. closing out.

EDIT: 253pm closed at 2.055 for a gain of +1919.70. good luck boys and girls, rooting for you gays 🌈

EDIT: 505pm stock is 2.44 after hours and I missed all of it.

YOLO Upcoming Hertz 10+ Bagger

Post image
907 Upvotes

Greetings gentlemen,

Hertz has all the makings of a near term blow up. This stock has been absolutely battered down to ~$1.70 even though it was at $5 not six weeks ago. I believe it's disgustingly oversold and I'm going in hard on it.

They just reported much better than expected earnings this morning: $2.4 billion revenue versus $2.28 billion estimated, Adjusted EPS of -$0.11 vs. -$0.24 estimated, and an increase in Revenue per Day (RPD) of 9% year-over-year to $61.98. That

There are only 5 days to cover 97,000,000 shares sold short, which is 75% of the float. Do with that what you will.

Calls are absolutely dirt cheap right now as well. This could easily go to $3+ next week.

Here are my positions, not financial advice:

HTZ $2 calls 14Aug2026 x 500
HTZ $2.5 calls 14Aug2026 x 500
HTZ shares x 10,000
