  1. I've seen it too many times, hopefully not with IBRX but, that add on offering as the stock rises and puts $$$'s into the corporate coffers tends to take the wind out of the stock sails (look at ABML, ALPP, HMBL, etc)
  2. Just think about the people with a cost basis of $20+, not that anyone here bought at those levels
  3. Kid finally got up to the farm earlier this week, after spending about 10 days in Fairbanks due to weather, gathering supplies, car issue, etc. Took him a couple of days there before they got the satellite internet to work and he could tell us he was there and he has sent Mrs Fairway a couple of photos. Early work at the farm is shoveling the snow out of the hoop house footprint, getting the plastic pulled over the hoops and the envelope closed so they can start to heat them, and generally cleaning up winter debris all around the farm. Separately they have to get the cabins opened up, This is his biggest change/challenge - it is a dry cabin, they try to keep 4-5 5 gallon jugs filled. The outhouse is not unknown but it is a change for it to be the only place to go. Showers and laundry are about a mile up the road; they do have a generator so they have some power when they are in the cabin, but this is a huge change but he has a good attitude to this adventure. Spring has finally hit AK, it will be in the upper 50's for the next week or so, and the low will be above freezing starting Mon or Tues. Moose is good people, I want to thank you for sharing all of the information in this thread as it has made it much less stressful for a parent who is now > 3,700 miles and 60+ hours (driving time) away.
  4. Why has no one ever told me that one earlier in my life?
  5. looks like good news for the market; now what the Fed does with all that is a whole other story (seems irrational that the Fed thinks they can work inflation, employment, the market, banking stability and the overall economy by tweaking just one interest rate.)
  6. One more so far today - he can be wheels up by noon if he likes and back home for the weekend. Getting ready for the Nelson, then packing for upstate NY
  7. (Iraqi minister everything is alright gif) Today WAL - up $6, 33% ZION - up $3.10, 15% CMA - up $3.55, 11% PACW - up $1.75, 56%
  8. Man - I really hope if they make the coin that Yellen (or Biden) don't lose it in the sofa cushions. But first a quick question - who do you think they will put on the bust of the Trillion dollar coin? (we all know that Trump would do it if Pres, but only if they put his bust on the coin)
  9. OMG - it is like playing #stonk roulette; you are making me feel like a simpleton in the stonk world.
  10. found this - only list failed banks back to October 2000, so it is there are only 566 failures listed https://www.fdic.gov/resources/resolutions/bank-failures/failed-bank-list/
  11. The market indicates no they have not Western Alliance: -$18 (62%) today - at $11, $87 is 52 week high Zions: -$3 (13%) today - at $20, $60 is 52 week high Comerica: -$5.5 (16%) today - at $30, $87 is 52 week high PacWest Bancorp: -$3.65 (57%) today - at $2.77, $34 is the 52 week high if you believe in betting against my life - look at PNC, down $3 (2.5%) - at $114, but they will soon be working with "The Cooler" if rumors I hear around the office are correct
  12. Floyd is already 80, Aaron is 86 - I don't think they will do it; I am a big Freddie fan so maybe I'm overly optimistic. Maybe he will do it when I finally get tickets - so that is just about never gonna happen. I liked that they had Lee Elder to it one year, maybe they find a way to let Trevino hit it one time. I wouldn't mind Watson and Ben, and a rotation of guys. I think Fred is going to keep playing until they hid his clubs.
  13. Kinda sad that his best chance to be competitive (oh hell, I'll say it - to win) is at the Masters; but that is likely the hardest coarse for someone to walk. It will be really sad when in 2035, or 2040? that he shows up to be the honorary starter; I think that once we lose Jack or Gary that Ben could step in, then Freddie (though he "only" won 1 green jacket. Even if he isn't playing people would love to see him hit a ceremonial shot - it will take a lot for Tiger to want to participate like that, but he will already be there for the champions dinner, so why not.
  14. Y'all I've been reading a new book it's called - "How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love The Market, by Major Kong"
  15. shit - haven't paid enough attention to this, my main account is at Schwab (has been since the 1980's), though I do have some 401k's not rolled over at Fidelity. I know that Chuck got a bank, but is it structured that it could tip the entire entity? Certainly they have some side rails that would keep a failure separate, right?
  16. Western Alliance down "only" 20% today, and that is $3 off the daily low {everything is fine gif - to be inserted here}
  17. So do we think the Fed takes action today to save the banks (no move, or maybe drop rates), or do they say fuck it and continue to fight inflation and bump rates up again? Glad the Fed is finally fully at the center of the party, and their attitude seems to be FAFO
  18. is Utah also going to outlaw using a VPN? obviously, asking for a friend 😉
  19. Whatever you do, don't come up here with our freshwater beaches, sand dunes, temperate weather,and lots of state and national parks.
  20. I'm up on my shares that reduced my average cost, now I'm close to only needing it to double so I can break even
  21. whoa, whoa, whoa - we need more posts like this, hell more posters like this. she could show us her boobs and we would all vote for her for City Council
  22. Maybe they will send us a toaster for having that new account> And now that FRB has sunk, we should now focus our attention to figure out which bank is next - if you believe in the Wally jinx then Western Alliance should be on your radar, company I previously worked at banks with WAL. I finally get into a couple of tech related firms, and the banking market goes in the shitter. Good thing we aren't trying to close out a funding round (oh wait, we have 2 separate fundings that we are hoping (needing) to close by the end of the month. Here is a good likeness of my persona
  23. Presto chango - my employer is now a customer of JPMChase
