Cold Miser Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 There was a conversation on the radio about some tiktok video with a woman spouting the revelation that when a forecast says 30% chance of rain, it does not mean that there is a 30% of rain, but that it's a 100% chance of rain, but a 30% chance of rain in YOUR area. The discussion was interesting as the whole YOUR area is open to interpretation. Quite honestly I never thought of it that way...the 100% chance, but I suppose it makes sense, since it is going to rain somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Anyone here familiar with small engines. I have a Troy bilt mower with a Honda engine. I fixed a gummed up carb today. And when I ran it, it was running at low rpm... so there are two holes on the governor arm, I moved it to the further hole, and it ran at pretty high rpm. Is this bad, or can I leave it? to illustrate below. You can see the linkage in the first hole of the governor arm. I moved it to the second hole. there is now more tension, thus running at higher rpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Looks like the squeeze in Gamestop and, to a lesser extent, AMC has started again. Interesting times. Powell managed to jawbone stocks up and bond yields down a bit. We'll see how long that lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved it to the second hole. there is now more tension, thus running at higher rpm. I would move it back to the first hole and clean up all the governor linkages including the top one. Spray them with carb cleaner. Get all the linkages on the outside of the carb as well. Its extremely common for those linkages to get all gummed up and siezed. All that heat and dust causes them to stick. It looks like it has a throttle cable? Does that not adjust the engine speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just used it to illustrate what I was talking about. Ill do that though. In the spring, I’ll clean it all up and see what happens. Maybe I can buy a new spring and it’ll fit better too. I only bought the damn thing last spring. It has probably 15 hours on it. Wish I wasn’t having these issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 i can't believe game stop again. Its all in the call options . Forget just buying the stock. Millionaires made again today with 10 thousand dollars. I don't know of any other way to do that legal or not in this world. GME has done it twice now. Was 50$ this morning...call options w 100 strike price expiring this friday were like 25$ per option. If this opens at 170$ Thursday... those calls w 100 Strike should open at 7000$ per option. This was driven by insane volume and some folks bought Hundreds of calls today for 25$ per. Do the math . Now whoever bought at the BOTTOM will get the reddit retail traders to be future bag holders as they buy late. IF Robinhood allowed call options in GME again they will probably go bankrupt now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was none...just like last time. Just a planned attack. I'm looking at FUBO calls tommorrow. Stock popped( doubled ) last time there was GME run up (from 28 to 62 $) and not only did it not fall back much but it stayed above it's 50 day moving average... is 40$ currently and has a 50$ price target due to increased revenue from Sports gaming and it just is about to bounce as it's at its 50 day moving average. This thing could go to 70 easily should the shorts close shop and this see near the volume it did last time. Calls expiring this Friday are cheap so it would be a 2 day play .

STILL N OF PIKE Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 1 hour ago, wxsniss said: Your call on DNN a few weeks back was spot on The market seemed to digest the higher yields so far by selling off E comm/ TECH (and Utilities today) especially in names w super high valuation like AMZN/ SHOPIFY / MELI but Energy Sector has really been a Beast lately. Its interesting how BIG money is always rotating into different sectors as the market makes it's journey and it seems many long time successful traders have tracked Big money inflows by sector and made moves when the SP 500 bounces off lower resistance bands within uptrends or breaks above resistance levels (and bought at those times into the hot sectors) . Its one of the tried and true strategies (i.e profitable long term but not infalliable). Most predictable within established Bull markets like now. DNN is a miner and the small caps in the energy sector have been red hot. You have commodity prices increasing at a time when small cap stocks have been making new highs and money has been flowing into Energy. Money is also JUST NOW ready to flowing back into Semiconductors. China has recently threatened to withhold rare earth miners and Semi conductor chips so really any small to micro cap mining stock for lithium, graphite, uranium, nickel has done well ..its actually hard to find ONE of those miners's that hasn't tripled in last 4 months so at this point you gotta actually look to find one that still has much room from here. Regarding Semi conductor manufacturer stocks ..any (with a recent earnings beat) (AMAT/ AOSL/ FORM/COHU has been a primo risk -reward today. You have the administration focused on preparing to focus on amplifying our Supply in case China acts on veiled threats . Here .. Your entry price is a huge deal ...and ridiculously so when buying options..so the dip yesterday am and this morning were exceptional opportunities. Some fell 20% on the panic selling....so that was the time to buy ..when there was "blood in the streets" . *There is just still such a high risk because the 10 year bond yields are like 3% away from a key 1.44 level and FED CHIEF Papa powell didn't do squat to lower those yields (i.e say the fed was going to step in to monetize them to cap the rates and keep main street borrowing costs lower for a favorable recovery) but it's like the market which wants to run higher (because everyone is long) just likes to hear his soothing voice the last two days (he had two 3 hour scheduled speaking engagements) and he literally soothes the markets. The markets fell HARD both mornings for the 30 minutes after open before he began yapping at 10am. Now the markets are going the next few days without him to talk them up for 3 hours a day and if yields rise fast (which they are steadily and can turn on a dime ) we WILL sell off again (Maybe in more than just tech stocks) extremely fast. Historically stock prices fall 7-8 faster than they rise. I.E a few months gains can be wiped out in a few days. Its madness right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because usually day traders will sell it off (unless there was major news) . And then if i like it a lot i buy it back when it comes down to it's 20 day moving average. But anyway ya i think many of these will go up for a while over time and watching these and trading em is time consuming. That has happened in literally 50-100 lithium /graphite / uranium and nickel small caps in last month. My watch list has grown so long that TD won't update my watch list with real time quotes until i cut it back by like 10 names. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
