I csll someone who intentionally throws up a bunch of clearly inflammatory partisan posts with the stated purpose of disrupting the MFO community a troll, yes. And I say that while meaning no disrespect to the real trolls that live under bridges …
Put on an April 21 20/25 combo spread for LORL. It has SPAC-like qualities and there may be some corporate actions/IPOs that drive the price higher. (This is a speculative trade, btw.)
That's a good idea.....I stopped following the General list a long time ago for reasons that, respectfully, I won't go into here.

Wish granted. Replace your link to MFO with this link:

Since FD is intentionally disrupting the forum, or has expressed a desire to do so, flag away. At some point Charles or David will jump in to do something.
dunno about that study, but my dentist last year asked me to try a Tylenol/Motrin cocktail following a root canal. I played w/the dosages a bit (3:2 or 2:3) ever 6 hours and I had no pain whatsoever!
From what I can tell, that OTC combo is just abo…
That seems to be the limit of what Tweety Amin will say about taking prompt action in response to the virus. But that's like a firefighter showing up to a house fire with nothing more than a wet blanket and saying "sorry your house is burning, but…
question asked, question answered. Thx Shadow. Le sigh...
From the following post, FD states:
"We are going to test it. I will start posting opinions from Fox News and Rush Limbaugh."

Lordy, there ARE tapes!!! (and they're released)
Kayleigh McEnany on TV just now: “The president never downplayed the virus.”
Donald Trump on tape with Bob Woodward: “I wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down because I don't …
To be honest, ZH's Twitter feed was very useful for breaking news over the years, especially for context when I was trading. But I quit following it a long while ago when it became more skewed with conspiracy theories and snark than useful informa…
Any politician in any national legislature or professor in the world can “nominate” someone for the Nobel Peace Prize - they'll get their name in the news for a day or so. Right now there are 211 people and 107 organizations nominated for the NPP t…
Have you noticed how LOUD the Trump foamers are? We'll need someone smarter than I to figure out why.
rono
I'm not smarter than anyone, but the Trumpy foamers look to their Dear Leader for example. Accordingly, they figure foaming louder and mo…
That logic ranks right up there with Tweety Amin's Fake News Syndrome....
Tweety: "I never said/did X."
MSM runs video of him doing/saying *exactlly* X. Possibly repeatedly.
Tweety denies it as 'fake news' when all they did is report on his own…
I am not affiliated with gop nor dnc but i wsnt to do my own dilligence analysis before jumping into judgements
And yet you post stuff from ZeroHedge and other confirmed sources of foreign and/or partisan disinformation & conspiracy theories…
good example of fake news
follow the herman Cain link to the tweet and then there is a link to a site called the Western Journal that says
"A new report from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that in 94 percent of the …
Another reason why I'm not interested in owning muni bonds. Taxfree or not, there are too many goofy ideas, shenanigans, and funding flow issues these days (ie, lowered sales tax revenues due to Covid) for my tastes.
I have one muni fund in my lo…
I've seen reports that late today several MSM news orgs, including Fox, have confirmed the Atlantic's story. I shudder to think how much posturing & public masturtweeting will be done by a sundowning retiree squatting in DC public housing over…
Unless it's endorsed by the MyPillow CEO and the ghost of Hermain Cain, it's not worth taking!
@MSF I'll ask Old_Skeet to contact Zerohedge and Putin to see if they have any extra of their super-good true most special yummy vaccine for Americans lik…
They say 'be ready' ... that's not the same as saying 'it's available.' I agree this is 100% political timing.
I'm not holding my breath nor am I rushing out to get the vaccine anytime soon anyway.
Initiated a 500s likely starter position in VIRT this morning to 'play' the likely looming equity volatility surrounding the elections, covid, and general world condition. Solid company, can make $$ in any market condition, and pays a good div. I…
Rickrmf - option income in CC-type funds typically are classified as ROC, which makes it confusing since that's not considered a 'bad' return of capital. I think you know that many CEFs or MLPs that use ROC to sustain high divs/distributions -- th…
I never understood how "multi-income" funds tend to always be FI funds. When I think of 'income' I always consider quality dividend stocks as part of that concept. *shrug* But I'm just weird sometimes.
In that regard, NUSI looked interesting f…
I think it's a failsafe in case he and the GOP lose or lose big in November. They can claim later on that the Democrats "raised taxes" when that deferral kicks in and folks must pay more in taxes next year.
Sounds like a Trojan Horse in an attempt…
Then there's this ..
"Federal workers will have taxes deferred under Trump’s order, sparking outcry they’re being treated as a ‘guinea pig’"

Especially on trans-pac flights, I will indulge in wine with dinner, a cocktail before, and one or more afterwards, plus tons of water -- which usually is enough to knock me out to get a few solid hours of lie-flat sleep in b-class. :)
We're not just a scotch snobs. One of our fave go-to bourbons is called Widow Jane. It uses the magical waters of upstate New York, which for those who know about New York's water, makes for a great, smooth taste.
Balvenie Carribean Cask (or Double Barrel) is quite nice. Macallan 12 is always a good 'daily' dram. I'm also partial to Jura and Scapa from the salty windy north, too.
At the moment I'm on a Laphroaig Quarter Cask kick for my scotches --- peat…
