I do have one great feeling on a short or put move though. ULTA.
So fucking overvalued. It’s going sub-100 soon regardless of what the market does.
Buy a single put contract and watch it go.
The /r/WallStreetBets degenerate who's made $300K thanks to the Kung Flu targeted Ulta as his next big payoff. [Reply]

After further analysis, it appears that you're right as usual. However, I also notice that the same amount of this stock was sold, so the increase is a mystery. [Reply]
I don't typically subscribe to too many plays on WSB, but I found this one to be particularly interesting:

TLDR 4/17 $5 Strike
I'm in for 10 contracts on that 4/17 $5 put. Nothing crazy, but I can absolutely see how this would tank in the short term due to this. Likely going to hold through the weekend and see how we look on Monday (again piggybacking on my bet against the market every weekend until this thing turns around strategy.) [Reply]
The aerospace giant has been hit hard by the coronavirus’ impact on demand, and the fiasco that still dogs its flagship 737 MAX plane. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Boeing (BA) is now weighing possibly cutting its dividend and laying off workers as the coronavirus pandemic hits home.
The stock, which is down more than 75% from its 52 week highs, is down over 2% in midday dealings, trading under $100 per share.
Three different stocks hit my completely made up targets at ~2pm on the 18th. I thought the apocalypse was on, but nope. :-) Sure hope it's a sign of some strength and Monday morning doesn't rape me. [Reply]

Moved 20K into CCL today at just under 10/share....I honestly think this is gonna be a real money maker (long term)....the cruise industry is going nowhere and Carnival Corp has the biggest piece of the pie worldwide [Reply]
