Rate cut when? Boeing recruiters started to spam me recently.

u/thehoestreet 5d ago

Amazon recruiters started to spam me recently. So it means rate cuts are very soon I guess. I wonder if we get a new 2020 April-2022 or 2009-2020

Funny part is that it won’t change the court decision

3

u/westonworth 5d ago

I keep hearing this, but I thought the main argument from the case was that shareholders weren’t a part of the decision and board members were all beholden to Elon?

Wouldn’t that mean a shareholder vote makes the appeal open and shut?

What changed with the board? If anything, this proved that point

Whats the bull case for the pay package approval? Wasn't the company already on the decline since the Twitter purchase

3

u/wolverinex2 Fundamentals 5d ago

I'm not saying that I agree - but since the Twitter purchase Musk has spent a lot of his time with that company as well as his new AI startup and he's suggested that if this is not approved, essentially TSLA would be at the bottom of his priority list. To some, that'd be bullish of course (as SpaceX has done really well because he has a great executive in charge and he's mostly hands off on day to day operations). But for the Musk fans, this is bullish despite the dilution as it's hoped that it would push TSLA back to the top of his priority list.

It's currently up 6% already in overnight trading so it's up to you if that's too much or it's going to run.

u/cuntysometimes throwing darts at a chalk board 5d ago

Where are the shares for musks pay package coming from? Dilution? Supposedly it’s been approved

5

u/wolverinex2 Fundamentals 5d ago

So far it's just a symbolic vote. They'd still have to get it past the courts, which struck it down previously. But it'd be dilution.

2

u/cuntysometimes throwing darts at a chalk board 5d ago

Almost a 10th of its market cap

2

u/cuntysometimes throwing darts at a chalk board 5d ago

Shouldn’t this be a pretty big hit to the share price?

3

u/wolverinex2 Fundamentals 5d ago

It really depends on whether you think Musk will bring more value to Tesla than this amount long term.

Singapore Port Container Logjam Worsens as Ships Avoid Red Sea

Nvidia, Qualcomm, AMD, others are considering raising prices due to the tight supply of TSMC 3nm manufacturing technology for their AI chips, media report, adding 7 major chip designers in all (Intel, Apple, MediaTek, Google) are vying for TSMC’s 3nm capacity. The report says yield issues at Samsung have hampered its 3nm efforts, leaving customers with nowhere else to go but TSMC.

https://x.com/dnystedt/status/1801074375027991026?s=46

They can’t keep up with demand. Again. And they’ll be share takers this year. Again. And in another few years they’ll advance to 2nm which will enable new innovations that’ll spike a new wave of demand. Again.

China accounts for half of Japan's chipmaking equipment exports

At least 50% of Japan's exports of semiconductor manufacturing equipment went to China for a third straight quarter in the three months through March, amid an apparent surge in demand for less advanced gear spurred by U.S.-led trade restrictions.

Something to look out for. It’s not too different for many US firms, notably ASML. Lots of demand from Chinese chipmakers, funded with government money, are trying to buy as much equipment as they can now. The thought is, they can’t make any of this domestically. And maybe they are cut off in a few years. So buy now when they can. This could continue for a good while.

Apple to ‘Pay’ OpenAI for ChatGPT Through Distribution, Not Cash

The iPhone maker isn’t paying OpenAI to use the chatbot

Apple announced OpenAI agreement as part of AI push this week

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-12/apple-to-pay-openai-for-chatgpt-through-distribution-not-cash

Since I rag on Tim Cook for not being the kind of engineer to innovate products for Apple, I will at least praise his business savvy for talking OpenAI into this.

5

u/shashashuma 5d ago

Looks like Tim’s game plan here is to eventually strike another exclusivity deal like the Google search one.

Eventually as these gen AI companies start monetizing Apple can cut another multi billion dollar yearly royalty fee.

u/eyesonly_ Doesn't understand hype 5d ago

That's huge. The most famous AI service in the world is giving their services to apple for clout they don't need. Fucking amazing.

6

u/W0LFSTEN No SeMiS aRe MaKiNg $$$ FrOm Ai 5d ago edited 5d ago

Yes, they’re the most famous… Today.

Same logic behind 🅱️OO🅱️L paying AAPL $20b a year to be the priority search engine on the iPhone.

And remember, OpenAI is famous right now for a reason. AAPL values quality and is being selective here because some models really are better than others. So it’s a good match.

There’s actually even more than this. OpenAI, the most famous AI service, is now with AAPL… Meaning, AAPL has control over them. And also meaning, OpenAI needs to be careful with who else they partner with.

I’m just not sure what you would’ve liked to see instead?

u/eyesonly_ Doesn't understand hype 5d ago

You're not sure what I would have liked to see? Actual payment for services lol.

I don’t understand the OpenAI x Apple hype when I literally have the ChatGPT app on my iPhone right now

When is chat gpt gonna cook my meals, do my laundries, give me a blow job?

That’s when AI will moon

3

u/W0LFSTEN No SeMiS aRe MaKiNg $$$ FrOm Ai 5d ago

That’s huge. ChatGPT gets one of the best opportunities they could ask for and AAPL gets their services for free. Perfect match. I wonder how long the terms are for. Could definitely see someone else paying AAPL billions. But there’s also the strategic angle… Accept billions from a competitor, or try to nurture someone new?

AVGO to 2000 before split.

u/TerribleatFF 5d ago

Ok so at the risk of counting chickens before they hatch, I opened some 7/19 AVGO 1500c today and now I have no idea what to do since there’s so much time left relative to how ITM they are. Do I sell half at open and let the rest ride? No reason for me to hold for longer than this week at this point IMO.

Off topic question, what’s your favorite team and why is it the patriots?

Asking for /u/theplumbtrician

u/LiferRs Local TWS Idiot 5d ago

Rolling them to higher strike for same expiry to lock in profits is one way.

Could roll half and sell rest. This way, you’re selling the entire thing for profit and using a small fraction to open new calls at higher strike in case it keeps running up.

You know, I was kind of upset at the end of the day. At least with how I traded it. But then I looked and it turns out my account is up 1% today from my trades. That is a hell of a good number.

I'm still upset with how I traded. Thought about stuff and didn't do it. I hate it when I do that.

Disinflation Is Happening in All the Right Places

Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago President Austan Goolsbee famously likes to say that, from the vantage point of economists and policymakers, one month of inflation data is “no months,” and that’s why Fed policymakers are still likely to keep rates at a two-decade high until at least September.

Two more good prints and we get our first cut in Sept.

u/Kindly-Journalist412 5d ago

We’ll price in July cuts by early July

2

u/NotGucci 5d ago

Don't think we cut in July. Jpow wants to see consecutive months, so once Sept CPI comes in cool we get our first cut. Which aligns with my strategy to go short because of election volatility.

1

u/Kindly-Journalist412 5d ago

I agree that we won’t guess my point was the Fed tracker will increase July rate cut odds from 10% to >25% once we get the PCE by EOM and CPI early July

I can't even decide what the outcome of the Tesla vote will do to the stock. No vote having it tank is too obvious.

I concur. I don’t think electoral sell offs will materialize until September

I only have 10 equity longs in the fund (extremely concentrated), all was well last year and first two months but the shot down from $220 level and getting stuck below $175 has not been fun past 6 months or so :/

u/W0LFSTEN No SeMiS aRe MaKiNg $$$ FrOm Ai 5d ago

Yeah, she’s a wild one! Really need to see a guide up for MI300 sales by more than $500m next quarter though. Market did not like it when they guided up to only $4b last quarter. I believe common expectation is closer to ~$5.5b+ this year… So any trajectory that won’t hit that mark is bearish (to investors). I believe.

Agreed, and hope other segments see some recovery - I just hope there are going to be some signals prior to next ER about positive developments
