Passive investing is about to get ugly. Everyone acts like buying total market indexes such as VTI is low-risk, but we are walking into a massive trap with these upcoming mega IPOs. In the past, when companies like Amazon or Google IPOed at reasonable valuations of hundreds of millions or a couple of billion, the index funds bought in cheap and captured the ride up to trillions. The public got the growth. Now? Companies like OpenAI and SpaceX are staying private until they are massive. OpenAI

Idk what to do. I need help! I’m losing everything! I’ve been asking for help from Gemini and ChatGPT but they are not helping.

I got in SOXL late July after it went from $63 to $30. I threw the whole port at it. Little did I know she was going to keep diving until it hit $9. Bought more like a regard. Deleted the app and waited for my wife's boyfriend to kick me out. Started to rip after liberation day and have been waiting to exit so I can buy my boat. Sometimes it pays to be patient. I still think it has the gas to run to $75 or more but my time horizon has shrunk. Good luck to you guys out there. I'll be back when sh

Every single call blood red. Lost over half my life savings the last week. Fuck this shit

Multiple sources, including AP News and The New York Times, report that the US House passed a funding bill on February 3, 2026, to end the partial government shutdown, sending it to President Trump for signature. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02/03/us/trump-news Sorry mod for not adding link before

Lil mix of 0dte SPY puts during the Santa rally, SLS calls at the top, and some HOOD calls the other day. Spy calls in the second and third slide, SLS calls in the third and fourth slide (expired worthless). HOOD calls unrealized but it’s a smaller amount and will likely expire worthless if not at a 60% loss today. Just got a $40k truck that I’m paying $850 a month on as well. Overtime for the next two years. Second job incoming this month as well.

My thesis is broken - the growth is decelerating and the guidance is disastrous. I’ve cut my losses.

Posts all over Reddit recently about how cheap PayPal is, well, at least in theory. Guess it just got even cheaper. However, company has no moat, endless competition and I hear even their software infrastructure and tech stack is lagging compared to their competitors. Edit: Total stock based compensation (SBC) between 2020 and 2024 is nearly $7B (!), what did the management do to deserve this compensation?

Had my biggest day ever. At first I was sad that ofc it had to be my Roth but the green happiness took over. 27 and opened my Roth in December ‘25, contributed $7k for 2025, and just $2057 for 2026 so far. Was already up $2k on the day when I got lucky with THAT SPX red candle (last pic ha). Figured I deserved a post now that I’m not going to do this again we’ll play it safe. I’m not good at this!!!

My options bro pull this crazy Silver play Friday. And now the bear can hibernate. WSB rexxxxs not entertain??

\-24k loss on weekend gambles🫡 I was hoping for a bounce-back on metals and market volatility. 🤦‍♀️ Previous yolo/dd post: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1qrlp4a/eating\_the\_cheese\_on\_the\_gld\_slv\_mousetrap/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=mweb3x&utm\_name=mweb3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button
