    IPO two days ago. Market cap now higher than Amazon, and it hasn't released a single fundamental to back up the share price. What could possibly go wrong? lol Gut tells me a whole lot of folks are going to be left holding the bag when institutions and hedge funds take massive profits before the little guys can get out. They're going to have to be disciplined enough to ride out the storm, and pray there's not a single launch issue.

  9. To me, one of the best things to happen out of this—besides no nuclear weapons for Iran if that actually gets done—is the realignment of energy across the globe. The Strait won’t be allowed to have as much impact in the future. Producers will find other outlets. Plus, the U.S. has been established as a reliable energy source without the headaches of the Middle East. We should now become one of—if not the—dominant energy producer/s in the world. Our supply lines are safe. Insurers will take note. Length of travel will not be as big an impediment if regularly scheduled shipments are undertaken by clients. This should bode well for energy investments, manufacturing, engineering, crafts and skills, and related high-paying jobs. Not to mention a boon to our resurgent steel industry.

    Nope. Even if allowed—which the stock purchase contract may not allow in this case—you’d be selling short term. Meaning, you’d pay capital gains tax at your ‘normal’ tax rate. I’m assuming somewhere in the 20% effective tax rate range. Probably higher if you’re single with no dependents, and a decent banking job. That doesn’t count your buying fees. I don’t know your situation enough to know if you’d incur AMT. But, you’d take a loss. You need to sit on it and ride for at least one year to get it treated as a long-term capital gain, and get the lowest tax rate. Sorry to burst your bubble. You still bought a good, long-term investment. Just be prepared for a bumpy ride for a year or two until the first few reports come out, and serious investors can get a better handle on the numbers. The Starlink portion of the business is the profit-making side. Not the rockets. Right now, many are investing in the hype & Musk himself. If Musk were to suddenly not be in the picture, would you have bought the stock? I doubt if many investors would… That’s a scary proposition if you actually wanted to purchase more than just a few shares. The institutional buyers can dump a lot quicker than you can.

  11. I don’t do ticktock but my wife has shared many stories of how impressed soccer foreigners are to visit our country, except for the heat. Helps make us realize how good we have it.
