“Wild, luxurious, and absurd.”   Chatter rolls into March madness with David, Jamie, and Torie.  All eyes on David's beloved American Eagles, but Jamie's Gators look good.  Torie's beloved CAPs are on a roll, and Ovi's on the march to break Gretzky's record.  The show gets back to books (sort of) with a review of reviews of the Moby Dick opera.  Best selling author and former librarian Kristen Arnett zooms in to share “Stop Me If You've Heard This One.”  As the Washington Post put it, it's all kinds of funny.  Ostensibly about a retail employee turned clown, it's a truly original way to look at art and creativity.

As promised, here is my updated guide to buying and investing in gold. I really think it is important that you own some, given what governments are doing to currency. I have also made this available as a PDF, which you can download here:(If that PDF doesn't work, try this link)Also, there are still a couple of tickets for my musical comedy show this Friday April 5 in Guildford. And on Tuesday April 9, I'm talking money, tax, gold - all that stuff - at the IEA with Tom Clougherty. Entry is free. If you fancy it, here is the link).We are living in a world of uncertainty. There is inflation, war, political discontent, financial instability and, perhaps most concerning of all, state incompetence everywhere you look. The case for owning gold, for having wealth stored outside the system, where it is nobody else's liability, is as strong as it has ever been.There is old Wall Street adage: “Put 10% of your net worth in gold, and hope it doesn't go up.” If gold is going up, it usually means there are problems elsewhere.The adage applies now, as much as it did when it was first coined many decades ago.How to invest in gold.There are five ways:* You can go old school and buy bullion - coins or bars.* You can buy gold stored in vaults in places like London, Jersey, Zurich or Singapore. This gold is allocated to you.* You can buy ETFs via your stock broker. These are funds that store gold. The price of the fund tracks the gold price, and you own shares in the fund. (See footnote 1, if you need to understand what an ETF is).* You can buy gold companies - refiners, royalty companies, miners and so on.* You can buy futures, options, CFDs or spreadbets.I'm not talking today about buying mining companies (if you are interested in mining companies, consider a paid subscription, as gold mining companies are one of my areas of expertise). Nor am I talking about futures, options, CFDs or spread betting the gold price. Neither is safeguarding your wealth. They are speculation. In the right market they can make you a lot of money. In the wrong market, they can also lose you a lot.Upgrade your subscription here.Today we are talking about old school, physical goldI'll put to one side arguments about whether gold is a good investment or not (I think it is), and whether I think it is going up or down. I'll simply explain what is the easiest, cheapest and, perhaps above all, safest way to buy gold.A note on ETFsETFs are a simple way to get exposure to the gold price. It's not really the same as owning actual metal, so the purists tend to veer away from ETFs, though institutions like them, as do traders. ETFs are easy to buy and sell. You buy an ETF just as you would buy any stock or share through your broker. London-listed gold ETFs include RMAU.L and PHAU.L. The world's biggest is the NYSE-listed GLD. Costs - for example storage - are baked into the price.To buy an ETF, you need an account with a broker, such as Hargreaves Lansdown or Interactive Investor. You deposit money and buy through them.I steer away from ETFs mainly because they are too easy to get shaken out of. When you buy physical gold, to sell can be a bit of an undertaking, so it's less likely to be done on a whim. Owning physical turns you into a long-term investor. It may be that you never sell at all and end up passing the gold on to your heirs.So where do you buy gold from?I've used many bullion dealers over the years. The dealer I like most, and with whom I have an affiliation deal, is the Pure Gold Company. Premiums are low. Quality of service is high. You get to deal with a human being. You can take delivery of your gold or store it online with them in their vaults. They deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe. (If you speak to them, tell them I sent you).In theory, there is not a great deal of difference between an ETF and storing your gold online with a bullion dealer. Both are extremely convenient, whether for buying or selling. Both give you exposure to the gold price. But I favour the storing-it-with-a-bullion-dealer route, as, somehow, you are less likely to sell. ETFs make it too easy to sell and so weaken your hands.Where are you going to put your gold?Once you've decided where to buy your gold, the next question is: where to put it? Different people with different circumstances have different solutions.Some people have a safe at home and keep their gold there. Some keep their gold in safety deposit boxes. Others never take delivery at all, and keep it safely stored in a vault with the dealer in sensible places like Zurich, Jersey, London or Singapore.I'm not convinced homes in our “vibrant” British cities are safe, so these are not options I would take, but ... I know one guy that has all his gold stored in a sock in his loft. I know another that has buried it in his garden, and only his close family know the location - he has quite a bit of land. I know another that keeps his gold and silver in plain sight - he uses the bars as doorstops. Nuts you may say, but how about this? He got burgled and the burglars didn't take the bars. They obviously thought they were just doorstops.If - and only if - you have somewhere safe to store it, I'm a great advocate of taking delivery. You get to handle your metal. There are lots of fantastic different coins from around the world to buy - Chinese Pandas, South African Krugerrands, American Eagles, Austrian Philharmonics, Canadian Maples, Australian Kangaroos. The bars are nice too. It's good to handle gold. But I refer you to my above comment about cities today. I've also heard about homes being burgled by people with metal detectors - but I gather this is mostly an Asian-on-Asian crime. For now.What about tax?Competition amongst ETFs and bullion dealers has conspired to drive down prices, much to the benefit of the consumer. But there is one enormous cost that neither of these methods are able to avoid - tax.When you sell, you are incurring a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) event - 20% in the UK for higher rate tax-payers and 10% for lower. That's an unavoidable 10 or 20% erosion of any profit.But there's another method of buying gold (and silver), which, quite legally, avoids this cost altogether. There is a slightly higher premium to spot when you buy, but we are talking about a tiny amount, nothing like 20% CGT. Given the potential savings involved, it's surprising that more UK investors don't buy their gold and silver in this way. The method I'm describing, if you haven't already figured it out, is to buy sovereigns and Britannias.The gold sovereign used to be the pound coin. Imagine that - a pound coin made of solid gold. It was the pound coin from 1816, after the Great Recoinage, until 1932, when the UK finally abandoned its gold standard. Until then, the pound really was “as good as gold”. 22 carat gold to be precise – that's about 92% purity. A sovereign weighs about 7gs, which is around a quarter of an ounce, the same weight as a 2p piece.Such is the devaluation of currency that has taken place over successive generations in the UK, it now takes well over 400 pound coins to buy one of these old pound coins.Despite no longer being on the gold standard, the Royal Mint began producing sovereigns again in 1957 and continues to the present day. A large number of them are actually minted in that well known British heartland, Delhi. (That's because there is a huge market for them in India).Technically these coins are legal tender, so they are exempt from CGT.As sovereigns are so common, the numismatic value is very low. You can pick up 100-plus-year-old Victorian coins at a few percent over spot. You get the history for free. And you can buy them from most dealers, including, of course, the Pure Gold Company. The main exception is the 1937 sovereign struck for Edward VIII. As he abdicated, the coins were never circulated. One sold in 2014 for over half a million quid. That's some premium.Gold Britannias – which are an ounce in weight – only began to be issued in 1987. But they too are considered coins of the realm. Despite the fact that an ounce of gold is £1,800, the face value of a Britannia is £100. Don't ask me how that works. I'm sure there's a reason. But, as coins of the realm, they too are exempt from CGT.The Royal Mint began producing silver Britannias in 1997. They also weigh an ounce. They have a face value of £2 (an ounce of silver is about £16) and are also exempt from CGT.Sovereigns are not the most beautiful coins in the world - Britannias are nicer - but both make for a considerable saving on CGT (assuming you have made a gain when you come to sell - of course, there is no guarantee of that).Thank you very much for reading this report. Good luck with your investments. Remember the adage: “Put 10% of your net worth in gold, and hope it doesn't go up.” If gold is going up, it usually means there are problems elsewhere.Once again my recommended bullion dealer is the Pure Gold Company. Premiums are low, quality of service is high. You can deal with a human being. You can take delivery of your gold or store it online with them in their vaults. They deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe, or you can store your gold with them in their vaults.Until next time,Dominic This is a public episode.

#AndySchectman: Rising Rates Are Creating A Problem For The US Treasury As Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve have raised interest rates over the past year and a half, there's been an inverted yield curve, which left longer term rates at less pronounced levels. Although that's changed in recent weeks, as the yields have begun to normalize, with the longer end of the yield curve selling off rapidly. Which is creating a precarious situation for the US Treasury, as they are facing higher rates, at the same time that the supply of US debt is increasing faster than ever, and causing the interest expense on the debt to create even greater borrowing needs. For decades the treasury and the Fed have seen the debtloads accelerate and they've talked about how they would need to be reigned in at some point. Although that never happened, and now we're starting to approach the point where it's becoming a more noticeable problem. With more tangible consequences. And in today's update with Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin, we discuss the position the treasury is in, and why it's becoming a problem that's getting harder to ignore. Andy also gives an update on the latest activity in the retail #silver market and how the premiums are reacting, and talks about some of the latest data points affecting the US economy.

#AndySchectman: Does It Matter If #BRICS Launch #Gold-Backed Currency In August?One of the biggest topics in the gold and silver space throughout the summer has been the possibility of the BRICS nations announcing the launch of a gold-backed currency at their meeting this August 22-24.Jim Rickards was the first to announce that they would, and that was followed by a report from RT that an announcement would be forthcoming. Although in the time since then there have been statements from India and South Africa that the BRICS are not going to be making a major currency announcement next month.Yet in today's show with Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin, Andy talks about whether an announcement at the August meeting is really a make or break event in the long-term. Because while the launch of a gold-backed currency would be a significant milepost, whether it's announced in August or not doesn't change the longer-term trend that's been developing, of countries making preparations to reduce their dependence on the dollar to conduct international trade.Andy goes through some of the developments that have led so many nation to lose trust and confidence in the current financial infrastructure, and talks about the growing list of nations and trade groups that are coordinating to change how trade is done.

At present, I'm probably getting asked this more than anything else. “Should I be buying gold? How do I buy gold?”We have inflation, war, political discontent and financial instability, so I'm not surprised many are asking. Even if the gold price is stagnant, the case for owning it, for having wealth stored outside the system, is as strong as it has ever been. So should you be buying gold?The old Wall Street adage applies: “Put 10% of your net worth in gold, and hope it doesn't go up.”Thus today's piece, which comes at the request of several readers and listeners, explains how to buy gold. This is especially for those in the UK, Europe and North America.There are five ways to invest in gold.* You can buy bullion - coins or bars. * You can buy gold stored in vaults but allocated to you. * You can buy ETFs via your stock broker. These are funds that store gold, and thus the price of the fund tracks the gold price.* You can buy gold companies - refiners, royalty companies, miners and so on.* You can buy futures, CFDs or spreadbets. I'm not talking today about buying mining companies (if you are interested in mining companies, consider a paid subscription as gold mining companies are one of my areas of expertise). Nor am I talking about futures, CFDs or spread betting the gold price. This is not safeguarding your wealth outside the financial and political system. It is speculation - and in the right market can make you a lot of money. It can also lose you a lot.Today I'm talking about old school, physical goldI'll put to one side arguments about whether gold is a good investment or not (it is), whether it's going up or down, and simply explains what is the easiest, cheapest and, perhaps above all, safest way to buy gold.Which bullion to dealer to use?ETFs are a simple way to get exposure to the gold price. Easy to buy and sell, they are favoured by institutions. You buy an ETF just as you would buy any stock. London-listed gold ETFs include RMAU.L and PHAU.L The world's biggest is the NYSE-listed GLD. Baked into the price is usually pay a small premium to the spot price of gold, and a small annual percentage to cover storage and other related costs. But it's not really the same as owning actual metal, so the purists veer away from ETFs.To buy an ETF, you just need an account with a broker, such as Interactive Investor. (If you sign up with them, and say I referred you - frizzers@ gmail.com - you will get a year for free and I get a referral fee).The reason I steer away from ETFs is that they are too easy to get shaken out of. When you buy physical gold, to sell can be a bit of an undertaking, so it's less likely to be done on a whim. Owning physical tends to turn you into a long-term investor.In theory, there is not a great deal of difference between an ETF and the store it online with a bullion dealer route. Both are extremely convenient, for buying and selling. Both give you exposure to the gold price. But, as I say, I favour the storing it with a bullion dealer route, as it makes you less likely to sell. ETFs weaken your hands.So where do you buy gold from? I've used many dealers over the years. My current recommended bullion dealer in the UK is the Pure Gold Company, whether you are taking delivery or storing online. In Ireland it's Goldcore. Both deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe, or you can store your gold with them. I have affiliation deals with both.Where are you going to put it?Once you've decided where to buy it, the next question is: where to put it? Different people with different circumstances have different solutions. Some people have a safe at home and keep their gold there. Some keep their gold in safety deposit boxes. Others never take delivery at all, and keep it  safely stored in a vault with the dealer in sensible places like Zurich, Jersey or Singapore. I'm not convinced homes in our “vibrant” cities are safe, so these are not options I would take, but … I know one guy that has all his gold stored in a sock in his loft. I know another that has buried it in his garden, and only his close family know the location - he has quite a bit of land. I know another that keeps his gold and silver in plain sight - he uses the bars as doorstops. Nuts you may say, but how about this? He got burgled and the burglars didn't take the bars. They obviously thought they were just doorsteps …If you have somewhere safe to store it, I'm a great advocate of taking delivery. You get to handle your metal. There are lots of fantastic different coins from around the world to buy - Chinese Pandas, South African Krugerrands, American Eagles, Austrian Philharmonics, Canadian Maples, Australian Kangaroos. The bars are nice too. It's good to handle gold. But I refer you to my above comment about cities today.Competition amongst ETFs and bullion dealers has conspired to drive down prices, much to the benefit of the consumer. But there is one enormous cost that neither of these methods are able to avoid - tax.Sovereigns and BritanniasWhen you sell, you are incurring a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) event - 20% in the UK for higher rate tax-payers and 10% for lower (CGT). So that's unavoidable 10 or 20% cost for buying and selling gold at a profit. There's another method of buying gold (and silver), which, quite legally, avoids this cost altogether. There is a slightly higher premium to spot when you buy, but we are talking about a tiny amount, nothing like 20% CGT.Given the potential savings involved, it's surprising that more UK investors don't buy their gold and silver in this way. The method I'm describing, if you haven't already figured it out, is to buy sovereigns and Britannias.The gold sovereign used to be the pound coin. Imagine that - a pound coin made of solid gold. It was the pound coin from 1816, after the Great Recoinage, until 1932, when the UK finally abandoned its gold standard. Until then, the pound really was “as good as gold”. 22 carat gold to be precise – that's about 92% purity. A sovereign weighs about 7gs, which is about a quarter of an ounce. Such is the devaluation of money that has taken place over the last three generations, it now takes about 300 pound coins to buy an old pound coin.Despite no longer being on the gold standard, the Royal Mint began producing sovereigns again in 1957 and continues to the present day. A large number of them are actually minted in that well known British heartland, Delhi. (That's because there is a huge market for them in India).Technically these coins are legal tender, so they are exempt from CGT. As sovereigns are so common, the numismatic value is very low. You can pick up 100-plus-year-old Victorian coins at a few percent over spot. You get the history for free.The main exception is the 1937 sovereign struck for Edward VIII. As he abdicated, the coins were never circulated. One sold in 2014 for over half a million quid. That's some premium. Gold Britannias – which are an ounce in weight – only began to be issued in 1987. But they too are considered coins of the realm. Despite the fact that an ounce of gold is £1,450, the face value of a Britannia is £100. Don't ask me how that works. I'm sure there's a reason. But, as coins of the realm, they too are exempt from CGT.The Royal Mint began producing silver Britannias in 1997. They too weigh an ounce. They have a face value of £2 (an ounce of silver is about £16) and are also exempt from CGT.Sovereigns are not the most beautiful coins in the world - Britannias are nicer - but both make for a considerable saving on CGT (assuming you have made a gain when you come to sell - there's no guarantee of that).My current recommended bullion dealer in the UK is The Pure Gold Company, whether you are taking delivery or storing online. Premiums are low, quality of service is high. You can deal with a human being. In Ireland it's Goldcore. Both deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe, or you can store your gold with them. I have affiliation deals with both.

Today is Friday, May 13th, 2022. I think our first Friday, the 13th of the year. Good luck to everyone out there on lucky Friday, the 13th Benzing is daily stacks.Watch podcast is a list of at least five star. Handpicked by the Benzinga pro Newsdesk team. We've got them on our radar today. We want you to know about those and maybe think if you want to get them on your radar today, get them on a watch list. Get them on a chart. See how they treat. My name is Brent Sava.I'm head of Benzing is Newsdesk team and joined with me today is Is Ryan Faloona. He is our resident options expert. How you doing today, Ryan? No, really good bread. Happy Friday again. Sorry, I wasn't looking for last week. We miss you buddy, but here you are. That's what matters. All right. So our list for today.Is going to be five sacks. And then Ryan is going to hit us with some option activity that he was noting throughout the week. He's got three stacks for us and my partner, Steve Kraus is a way today. He's going to be away on Monday also. So Ryan, if, as I'm going through the sax watch list, if you want to pop in and give some of your thoughts, you are more than welcome, sir.Our first sock to watch for the day is Twitter. TWT are we haven't really talked about Twitter. Very recently. We had been talking about it pretty consistently for a few sacks watch podcasts there and kind of fell off the radar. It's back to. Our SOC to watch. Number two is OTR acquisition Corp it's ticker O T R a number three is American Eagle is Outfitters H E O.Number four is easterly government properties, ticker DEA, and our last sack to watch today is AI Quito pharma. It's ticker a I K I let's get it kicked off with Twitter here, folks. So an update on the Elon Musk. Shares had fallen as much as 27% earlier in today's pre-market session. Elon Musk tweeted that he was putting the Twitter deal temporarily on hold shares.Again, fell almost 30%. The reason that Musk gave in the tweet, I was like a little uncertain of, I don't know how it would be uncertain of it, but I read it and I was like, that's sort of odd to me, the full tweet. Twitter deal, Twitter deal temporarily on hold, filing pending details, supporting calculation that spam slash fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users.I was a little confused because I, Ryan, maybe you can pop in here with your thoughts. I was confused because I read the tweet and I was like, so does that mean. It's over 5% that he wouldn't want to do the deal or something like that. That seems kind of crazy, right? Yeah. To me, to me, this seems like a negotiation tactic to be quite, I was hoping you're going to kind of say something like that.One of the biggest metrics that Twitter reports when they report their earnings or when anyone talks about it, frankly, it's going to be their, their daily active users and those daily active users numbers of that really important data point is being inflated due to fake. Then that's a bargaining.Exactly. It it's a bargaining. Ultimately, what does this mean? I don't know. Um, I think that, you know, given the market conditions here on how everything is down, I would imagine he's trying to get it at a better price. That's kinda what I took from it. And his second tweet about, about the acquisition still being on showed you that he still wants to do this.He still wants to fix this, but he's not just going to shell out 54 20. If he can shell out, let's say 44. Right or whatever it ends up being. So I think that this is probably just a negotiation. So a couple of hours later, as, as Ryan just sent it out there, he tweeted again. He said, he's still committed to the deal.Shares were kind of already rebounding when Musk had tweeted that, but they did move over. Let me just pull up my chart here real quick. They did move over. Uh, about the $40 level when the second tweet from Mohs came out and he said, I'm still committed. Shares are around 39 50 here in pre-market session.And Ryan, you were, you were looking at, uh, you were looking at options in Twitter this week and seen a little bit, a few interesting. Yeah. So, I mean, obviously, you know, I was watching the options quite a bit this week. Nothing really stood out to me on Twitter until I woke up this morning and the news.And I was like, you know, the interesting, let me go back and see what happened these past couple of days. Okay. If, if anyone positioned for it and I can't tell for certain, uh, of course you can't, you can't tell for certain, but yeah. I find a couple of transactions that were interesting. So, so number one, there were, there was a sweep, uh, yesterday that these, these four transactions took place yesterday.And the day before yesterday, there was a 44, uh, Sweep for the December 16, those are going to be your December monthly contracts. And someone paid $6 in premium for like 104 contracts. This was interesting to me because this was a, a strike that had not yet been traded. So there was a very high volume to open interest ratio on that trade.And that generally gets my eye looking at it. Um, now, uh, what was the open interest before on that one? Ryan? Uh, let me, let me get that here for you. Open it up. Oh, wow. Okay. So there were nine sidetracks being held open. Then someone came in and swept up 104 of them. So that was a call right to me. And they're leaving some time on this trade, right?So this, this tells me that yeah, they, they are bullish on it, right. Were, these are definitely calls to the upside high premium, um, and they're bullish on it, but they they're, they're kind of positioning themselves a day before this kind of goes public. And then they're giving themselves time for this to play out.Right December. We still have half of a year here. For this thesis to play out. Um, so I don't know if that's related. I saw that one yesterday. The other one that I saw yesterday was a bet in the other direction, which is interesting. It was the 41 put sweep and it expires on June 10th. So if I look at the, uh, if I look at the option at the option chain here, June 10th is going to be a weekly call, right?So that's not the monthly call. It's a weekly call. It expires 28 days from. Someone came in and bought 192 contracts at 180 5. Now this trade is only about $36,000 in terms of total premium, um, but was still there at that strike at that weekly strike, there were only 21 contracts being held open in the open interest and someone came in and bought nearly 200 of them.So again, something worth noting. The other two transactions were a little bit bigger. One was a thousand, uh, con uh, excuse me, a thousand. Uh, by, and it was for expiring August 19th. So that's eight 19, and that is the monthly contract. So there, there's definitely more, uh, activity and contracts like that.They paid $4 for those contracts and they shelled out a total of 400,000 in order to take that position. Um, so that's definitely a bet to the downside and, you know, that's a 46 strikes, so that was effectively an app. Trade when that trade went off, that one went off on the 11th. So that was Thursday.Excuse me. That was Wednesday. That was Wednesday. Uh, so that one is obviously a downside bet. And then we had another call that on the same day someone bought the 49 calls that expire may 26. Uh, so that's, that's a weekly, that's a week after the monthly expert. And though that trader bought 1,344 contracts, uh, at 91 cents a contract.So the total premium outlay was 122,000 there. Uh, that was actually a block that wasn't even a sweep. Uh, And that also had, you know, only 637 contracts in the open interest. Then someone came in and bought 1300 double what was in there. So it's interesting. There were bets in both directions and, and to me that tells me that no one was really sure what was going to happen, but they probably had an.That's it, at least something was going to happen. They didn't know what was going to happen, but at least something was going to happen. Ryan, a question really quickly that I think there are listeners are going to, like, how often do you go back and. Unusual option activity that gives you some value for a decision that you're going to make today.Oh, man, that is a fantastic question. I don't think I'm going to be asked a better question than that today. Um, the, any time that there's like a big kind of surprise like this, I will often go back and see if there's anything I can see in the options. Now, obviously we're, we're talking about going back in time, so there's no way to actually trade off of this information, but one of the things that I hope.Say again, it's informing your, your path forward. Right. And that's exactly right. One of the things I'm hoping to do is to look for patterns or look for something that stands out. Um, it wa was there something where I can kind of put the puzzle. Together and come up with something that I can then use in the future.Um, like I, I was just telling you, you know, I had a gut feeling about this and one of the, one of the contracts that I have for my segment here, um, it, there's kind of a gut feeling aspect to it. And I've developed that, getting that feeling by watching some of these, even if I don't trade them, there's value in watching them and seeing how some of these places.Awesome. Awesome stuff, Ryan. All right. I'm looking forward to your, your next call here. Let's keep it rolling with our second sock to watch for the day. It is OTR acquisition Corp. The ticker is OT, R a. This is a spec redemption play for today. Likely throughout next week, there was a tweet, there was news last night and a tweet that we saw highlighting it noted that shareholders approved his deal, approved the company's deal with comm Comoro life sciences.There were 10.3 million shares related to this back redeemed. That was almost 98%. That was over 98%. And when this redemption happened, it left only about 170,000 shares out there in the. Now we have a spec expert at, and Benzing, uh, Chris catchy is also a writer for us and he tipped me off to this one.And he noted that this vote led to what you said, quote, one of the biggest redemptions ever, and why this is important because when we have these SPAC redemptions, what ends up happening is investors. Give those shares back and then they're way less shares in the flow. And we know what happens with lower float names.They can tend to be more manipulated. They can tend to be more pushed around. Traders can kind of like corner the market in the, in the sack a little bit. And so Chris reached out to me, he said, Hey, I'm going to be watching OTR today. I'm going to be watching OTR next week. This is probably going to be a popular spec redemption play moving forward.Our third sack to watch is American Eagles, American Eagle Outfitters AEO. I'm probably surprising a few people with this one. This is a retailer with a pretty decent dividend yield. Let's just keep that theme that we've been having on the, to watch for the last few days, highlighting some bigger dividend paying companies as we're moving into seemingly more of a value market versus a growth market.Dividends are going to become more important. People are going to be looking for forms, a ways to get passive income and a dividend is a good way to do that. American Eagles has an 18 cents per share quarterly dividend. That's about a three and a half percent yield. If we're getting over two to 3% in dividend yields, that's like a pretty nice dividend.If we're getting over 3%, even better. If we're getting a dividend yield, that's over five or 6%, that's like really, really high. And so American Eagles around a three and a half percent dividend yield, pretty nice little dividend that they're paying their staff to watch. What number are we on? Easterly government properties.The ticker is DEA. This is kind of a fun one, a good ticker symbol that this company has because they are a play on a property owner for us government buildings. They own the buildings that have. The drug enforcement agency, that house, the FBI, that house, the CIA and yesterday I was tuned into CNBC's fast money halftime report.And one of their contributors from a lady named Jenny Harrington from Gilman hill. She really liked this act. She said she had been watching the stock for seven or eight years. And she didn't see an opportunity to buy it over those seven or eight years. And now as we're moving into a higher interest rate market, she said, this thing is starting to get a little bit sexier.I don't know if she, I don't remember if she said she, she bought some or she was buying some, but kind of an interesting little niche play here. If you're ever looking for a way to get access to the property that us government buildings. Our last stock to watch for the day is AI Quito pharma. It's AI. K I Ryan, this is, this is kind of a cool one.If you, if you hadn't heard about heard of this company a few weeks ago, this company disclosed that they had a stake in discord, like the chat platform discord. Yes. And you, uh, yesterday we saw a press release that said that the company secured an interest in a, another non seemingly pharma company is a data and AI company.It's called data bricks. If you ever heard of data bricks. So this company, AI, Quito, they're kind of like becoming this sort of like portfolio of kind of some cool, like AI and web 3.0 and metaverse assets. I don't know what the company does as far as their pharma or their biotech assets go. This is in my opinion, a play on these interests that this company is kind of collecting kind of a cool one, kind of a fun one here off our list.You know, you know, what's interesting about this one is this actually appeared on the relative volume scanner that I use within Benzinga pro it's what I use every day to find day trading opportunities. Okay. W I said, believe what you're talking about happened on me. Um, because that thing, yeah, the information about it, Akido pharmaceutical reports, strategic investment in social communication platform, discord military, that actually popped the stock from a 39 cent handle all the way up to 58 at the highest.So a stock that small making that kind of move is. Absolutely going to get traders in it. And if you look at the chart that volume, the volume stick is, is gigantic. Um, I had heard of this because of the period on my scanner. I have no edge to it. I have no, I have no position in it, but I'll be honest. I I'm, I'm eagerly awaiting, uh, the discord IPO.And I think that there's going to be other opportunities for other stocks that are mentioned alongside discourt shares. Discord probably going to be 20, 20 twos, hottest IPO. Would you venture to agree with me, right? Yeah, I think, I think that you're right. I don't play a lot of IPO's. I may play that one.Ooh. Interesting. I'm intrigued. I'm intrigued. Right. All right. I am excited to hear some of your options, ideas here. Do you want to reveal the tickers or do you want me to intro them? Okay, so I got three for you today. First of all, I'm a long bias trader. So. It was a little tough on some of the long side ones.However, there were some interesting things that I found and we're gonna talk about them right now. Uh, three tickers that I have are going to be CCL, which is carnival cruise lines, GM, which is general motors and D a L, which is Delta airlines. Uh, first here, the CCL one. This one is perhaps the most interesting, um, this, uh, was the June monthly fees for next year.So that expert date on these contracts is six 16 of 2023. Okay, 20, 20 threes. This is next year. It's the 12 and a half strike and it was, uh, about a million dollars in premium. Um, so, so first of all, obviously that's, that's gigantic just in terms of the, just in terms of the total premium, but this was a put sweep.So here's the thing. I actually think that this was a. Okay, because if you take a look at, at what's going on here, first of all, these puts went off at the bid. So there was 3,600 contracts that went off, uh, at the bid and the total trade value was 997,000. So that's a. Uh, a million bucks there and they're so long, they're so far into the future.I think what's happening here is that we recognize there was a very, very precipitous drop in pretty much market-wide. And I think what they're trying to do is sell, puts at the bottom, right? So the hope here is that they never have to revive these, that these just expire worthless. And even if they do have to buy these, perhaps they buy them back at a much, much cheaper price premium paid for these was 2 77 per contract.So, um, again, we don't get debit and credit information from the exchange. So it's impossible to know for certain, if the transaction was opened or closed, however, um, monitoring where these took place with respect to the bid or the asking sometimes tip you off to what's going on. And I've seen this before.Um, I. To me, my, again, this is just my gut feeling is that these were sold contracts. And the hope here is that they never have to buy these back. And they just immediately were credited with that million dollars in their account. Pretty cool stuff, uh, rich for my blood, but definitely, definitely interesting.I would not follow this. Um, but to me, it's almost as if this marks a pretty decent floor for carnival cruise lines, right. 12 and a half 18. And she was saying it looks to be a price floor. We'll see how that plays out over the summer here. And then into next year. Um, second one that I have here was GM.This was this year's June monthly 42 calls, and it was about $936,000 in premium. So again, just under a million dollars, 24,000 contracts, these were out of the money contracts, uh, that were taken here and there were 24,000 of them. Um, so th th this is, this is actually a. Um, this is actually the type of trade that I like to follow along with.Right. Um, because these contracts were only 39 cents a contract. Like what's the big deal for me grabbing 10. Like even if these expire worth is my risk is well-defined and if they end up going up a couple of hundred percent, that's a nice, that's a nice little trade there. So, uh, this one's really, really interesting.Okay. Actually expire. Let's see the June 17 contract that expires in 35 days. Right? So we're going to know real quick at this trade's going to work. Stock is currently at $36. The strike price was at 42. If looking at the chart here, if the stock bounced, it would actually take out this downside formation, uh, this recent downside formation that's been going on since the beginning of may.So to me, this is very, very interesting. There was a huge volume stick on the equity. Um, Yeah, I believe this was yesterday. Yeah, May 12th, uh, yesterday. So just a really, really interesting call. This is one that, um, you probably could have also scalped the stock as soon as the set, just because it's so big.Uh, but again, I didn't, I didn't trade any of these. I'm absolutely watching this. Here's the other thing, Brent, going forward. If I see repeats. Huge sweeps and some of these GM names or anything that's around this, that's going to make me think even more that, Hey, you know, they, we expect a bounce here in GM or maybe even the overall market, and that might be worth plan.So I got my eye on that one as well, add in the premium in there from where the Sachs trading in, I mean, this, this better is thinking that GM shares are going to be up a good 20% over the next like month. Right. Wow. Interesting. Interesting. I really like what you're saying about watching. At this contract too, it'll give you more conviction that this better is more convicted themself, right?Yep, absolutely. And then one of the other things that you can watch for is to see, like, if they roll out of this one and roll into the forties, for example, uh, perhaps they're saying, okay, well maybe that bounce is not going to be as much as we thought, but we still want exposure to the upside. So again, This is an aggressive bet out of the money calls like that.Um, often very appealing because they're inexpensive and a lot of people can buy them, but just a really, really interesting trade definitely fits the criteria for unusual that's for sure. Last one we have here is Delta airlines. Um, so th th these are interesting to me too. The airlines are really interesting to me.I know personally that the prices of all of the tickets are going up, bookings are going up. It's the summer people want to travel. Um, so th this one really interesting to me, $40 calls. This transaction also happened yesterday. These calls, these are the contracts that is for the June monthly. So again, 6 17, 20 22 35 days, uh, for this to materialize, they paid one 17 per contract and the total tray and they, they bought 9,000.423 contracts, which means that the total trade value of this trade was $1.1 million. So another big bet, um, these contracts, interestingly enough, these contracts are quite affordable at a dollar 17. Again, you know, even a retail trader can pick up just a couple of them and have some pretty good leverage, uh, here for Delta.And when we were looking at Delta here, you know, Delta is currently at $37, but the Delta was at $40 on. All right. So we'll bounce back to. With any type of good news is absolutely possible. And when you're in a levered trade like this, you could see some pretty substantial gains, obviously. Um, uh, also one more thing to note on those, those contracts went off at the asks.So those are calls at the ask and, uh, there was the open interest. Is it, you know, these airlines, especially in some of these monthly contracts, there are, these airlines are. Quite a bit, uh, there was 21,000 contracts in the open interest, so I don't have like an outlier number here for volume over open interest.Um, but it is still a huge, huge bet. And it does, if you look at the chart, it kind of looks like Delta is going to bounce right here. So just a really, really strategic interesting, but a huge and a really affordable. Ryan really, really good stuff, man. I love you coming on because it brings some fresh blood to the podcast, brings a fresh angle.Really appreciate your time. Really appreciate your insights are. And I hope that our listeners. Do you also thanks for coming on, man. Really appreciate it. Yeah, absolutely. And to the listeners out there, um, give me some feedback, let me know what you want to see. I watch a lot of different option contracts.I try to pick something different. Uh, today I tried to go with one that I thought might be a sale. So, uh, let us know, let us know what it is that you want to see and what we can do. I'd be happy. I'd be happy to come on and talk about it. I love this. I love doing this awesome, man. We'll we'll put Ryan's email in the description for the podcast.So check it out there. My, my emails also in there, you, you guys and gals can always give us feedback. That's how we get better as individuals. That's how we get better as an organization. So would really appreciate that feedback that is going to wrap it up for us this week. Another week in the books.

However, it seems the following Youtube video titled "Class Action Against FBI For Abusive Seizure and CIVIL FORFEITURE! Viva & Barnes" suggests even private vaults have third party State Agency (FBI) risk. Is this a risk from your perspective or an aberration? Question 2: 2:36 I am fairly well qualified in technical fields such as mathematics, sciences etc. I cannot understand how inflation equates to a covert tax? Question 3: 3:58 How do you know this reset will happen? There are others who are not so sure. Question 4: 8:24 Can the Federal Government ever go bankrupt? Question 5: 8:40 Can you give an example on how junk silver or American Eagles might be used to barter during hyperinflation? How does a person go about determining the value of the product (i.e. eggs or milk) in silver if during hyperinflation the value of silver in terms of fiat is constantly changing?

Self Directed Investor Talk:  Alternative Asset Investing through Self-Directed IRA's & Solo 401k's

GOLD!  No matter how expensive or cheap gold is, there’s always a lot of conversation about investing in it through an IRA or 401k.  But the IRS says you can’t use your IRA to invest in collectibles, which includes metals and coins.  Is it even possible or legal to buy gold in your IRA or 401k?  I’m Bryan Ellis.  I’ll tell you the answer right now in Episode 147.-----Hello, SDI Nation!  Welcome to the podcast of record for savvy, self-directed investors like you!It’s always easy to stir up conversation and find out what a person’s world view is by bringing up the topic of gold investing.  Gold is the one asset where many otherwise intelligent investors are wholly willing to completely ignore declining value just because of the feeling of security offered by ownership of the asset.  It’s as if Gold occupies some rarified plain of uniqueness among asset classes.And you know, I’m not really going to argue with that.  I’m not a total brainwashee to the whole “gold” thing… but I certainly see the point of those who are.Having said that, there’s a curiosity – more of a technicality, actually – that you need to know about if you’re interested in using your retirement account to purchase gold.The technicality is that, technically, you can’t really do it.  The IRS specifically includes bullion and coins in the definition of the term “collectibles”.  And collectibles is one of only two asset classes specified as wholly unavailable to retirement accounts, with the other being life insurance.And if you can’t buy gold in the form of bullion or coins, how will you buy it?Fortunately, there are exceptions.  Those exceptions are rather specific, but not unreasonably restrictive.  Here’s the gist of it:If you want to buy bullion – specifically, gold, silver, platinum or palladium – the purity of the bullion must be equal to or greater than the level required by public exchanges like COMEX or NYMEX, which is measures about 99.9%… in other words, very, very pure bullion.  If it meets that standard, then your retirement account is allowed to purchase it.And then there’s the question of gold coins.  The rules are fairly rigid here as well.  By and large, government-manufactured gold coins are acceptable.  For example – American Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs and Australian Nuggets.  But the purity standard still applies.  For that reason, some popular government-issued gold coins, including the South African Krugerrand, which has a purity below 92%, does not meet the qualifications.But that’s not the end of the story.  Now that your retirement account has purchased bullion or coins of the appropriate purity, the next big question becomes:  Where are those assets physically housed?  Do you get to take possession of those items, such as to store in a home safe or safe deposit box?Folks, this answer certainly isn’t going to make you happy if you’re one of the many people who have an inherent distrust in either financial institutions or the government – which certainly includes me.  The answer is that – with only one exception – if you own coins or bullion, they must be physically in the custody of a trustee, which will likely be the custodian of your self-directed retirement account.I hate to burst your bubble on that one, for those of you who like the idea of stashing a lot of gold at your home in the event of a systemic collapse.But there is, as I mentioned, one exception.  The exception is that if your retirement account purchases a specific type of gold coin – American Eagles – then those coins can be held by you personally at your discretion.  So, bottom line:  If you want to use your retirement funds to buy gold and you want to hold that gold in your home safe or otherwise, then you must purchase American Eagles.As an aside, have you ever looked at an American Eagle coin?  Those coins are absolutely stunning, just an absolutely magnificent design.There you have it, folks… the rules for investing in Gold or other precious metals in your retirement account.  I think there absolutely is a place for Gold in the portfolio of most investors, though I prefer other hard assets more, such as real estate.  But Gold certainly has a place.  And if you’re in the market to buy some gold, I do have some suggestions for you concerning a good, reputable source for making those purchases.  Just check out SDIRadio.com/gold for that information.My friends, invest wisely today, and live well forever!
