Couple things - most options trade a spread of 1-3% depending on how far from the money they are and how near expiration. Option interest also follows interest in the underlying. In a less traded issue - I guaranty the real price is not $0

TSLA has a pretty small float which is a large part of that.

On your points: 1/ Vega is sensitivity of option price to change in level of implied volatility. Appraised is an unusual word choice. You'll have more gamma if the asset price is near the strike price of the option. But gamma can

Yes, the premiums on the long dated OTM SPY are still historically rich. My long is actually in ES futures and I have managed to sell near OTM calls high enough to not be called away while still defraying the cost of the SPY puts a bit. Any

Very good point on geographic diversity and over the long term is should work to investor advantage. In the short term, during a crash correlations are likely to be high and moves in EM more extreme (small exit doors). However, my original

The VG 2065 is only 'conservative' on paper. There was a time, 20 or more years ago that it would also be true. The issue is that there is little, if any, upside left in bond prices and they have also become far more correlated w

Unfortunately, correlation between assets and also assets classes are extremely high so diversification ain't what it used to be. A crash can happen regardless of liquidity - at its most base it is just a change in what people view i

There is nothing to prevent any politician from doing what was done before Twitter/FB - holding a press conference and inviting the press/TV. Or putting out public statements which are widely disseminated over news/pr wires.

The fact that the DoD time line of events shows it took Army officials in charge of DC National Guard 90 minutes to approve deployment after DC mayoral request (while they watch it all in realtime on TV) certainly lends credence to the symp

The environment of and around the earth is pretty chaotic. Think it is way to soon to postulate what caused such a tiny variation. How to account for it, different subject. Odd that I read this first a few days ago via a link to a Martha St

When people (especially children) can't abide by social norms they are shut down. Maybe that is a time out in the corner. Maybe it is being asked to leave the party. Reddit, Twitter, etc are no different. You go to their house, you

This. Signal devs should understand that different people have different use cases as well as different tolerances for (theoretical) secrecy/privacy. Some convos/groups are worth keeping history for, others probably not. Signal

How about multimedia? Photos, videos? Docs that I may not wish to read now but have available at a later date if needed? Most of those I would rather leave 'archived' in context than pick and choose which to download to device

It is troubling that any of that would be described as odd, especially in the age of Covid. Not everyone is a social butterfly and not everyone has large extended families. Even circles of friends tend to get smaller as one gets older.

I have been to southern Finland a number of times, luckily for me in the early summer. Not sure if all of these applicants realize what they are getting into in regards day/night time in the summer and winter. At least in the summer

Indeed. When there is no cost of money (to pretty much anyone) bad things are not far away. Less talked about and also fueling the rise over a longer time horizon has been the great reduction in the number of listed companies. That is more

Negative return wrt inflation. Of course, you could buy TIPS and earn the inflation rate and perhaps some spread over, ie a 'real' return.

No trade is that far removed from gambling. There is always risk of some type. Trading at the professional level in virtually all underlying markets has become 'one way'. There are few, if any, market makers left. Everyone is now

Why do I still have this odd desire to have my own personal line printer? Something about reading printouts on green and white paper (sacriledge to flip it over to the white side) always made debugging easier. And the sound is the best!

I don't think the 'certified unix' moniker counts for very much at all. It is uncertain that any non-corporately maintained Linux distro could qualify (per the opengroup page) as the kernel is developed outside of the distro

Makes you wonder at what point FBI etc will go crying to legislatures to ban all VPNs because of the potential for someone to do something naughty with it.
