$JBLU is trading at $2.69 and tomorrow's 2.50 puts are spread at 0.07/0.12. If you don't think they'll drop another 7% in the next 24 hours you can collect 3-6% in premium. They're down 60% in 3 months and have been on a constant slide with earnings next week. I added today.

$JBLU EOD recovery to 2.65, so the short 2.50 put trade is barely green at 0.05/0.08. Tomorrow will be interesting.

Close these $JBLU short 2.50 weekly puts for a penny or roll through next week’s earnings for 0.19 net?

Not exactly. You need $10M in investments to qualify for margin ($5M if you're hedging), and sports contracts are excluded. It's for institutional trading, not for some degen's weekend parlay.

I’ve been warning for years: the real divide is no longer left vs. right. It’s between those who believe America is worth defending and those who see America itself as the problem. My latest Saturday column for @RestoringWest.
Jared Moskowitz beat his DSA-backed primary challenger by nearly 30 points after calling out an "anti-American at their core" faction within his own party. @Ayaan: the deepest divide in the Democratic Party is no longer policy. It's America itself. URL: ayaan.restoringthewest.com/d… #RestoringTheWest #Politics #DSA

That car is clearly not moving. Your radar needs to be recalibrated.

Funding negotiations are going great, but I think I can squeeze a little more juice from this fruit.

I spent months building a 30-feature model to beat the expert consensus at fantasy football projections. It lost. 0.618 to 0.623. So I put that number on my sales page. 🧵

Nobody goes to Disney anymore. It's always too packed.
YA NO SE PUEDE IR A DISNEYLAND. 2 adultos. 2 niños. Hotel. Vuelos. Comidas. Antes de la era Disney: “Vamos una vez en la vida con los niños”. Ahora parece:

Hey @united. Booked on UA 1708 out of Seattle today and it's been a mess due to circumstances out of your control. But I wanted to congratulate you on your pilot, who has been awesome in keeping everyone informed. These kinds of days happen, but I've never seen a pilot so hands-on with customers. I know you have a lot of people trying to get people where they need to go today, but he's been exceptional.

TIL that "mayor" in German is "Burgermeister". And they work out of the town hall, which is "Rathaus". WTF is going on over there?

There must be some kind of equipment issue going on with Team USA. Obviously Belgium is a quality opponent, but the nature of the constant unforced errors make it seem like they were all given cleats two sizes too big. It’s like in [real] football when they expect it to be muddy so they use longer studs. But sometimes it doesn’t end up raining and the players keep getting their feet caught in the turf.
