    Oil whipsaw continues. After reaching 28 last night, it's taking another dive into sub-24 waters:

    Wait until close - shorts going to cover again most likely. But might not with all this bad news rolling in.

    @Venom08 - does your DJIA price point take into account a US Lockdown?

    ehhhh, if today was green I would maybe buy some puts - but the premiums are so high on all options right now

    Well, I've been working at home for the last week. Just got off a conference call that our company is mandating that all US workers burn a week of vacation next week (auto part supplier). I think it's a little premature, but it appears things are definitely shutting down, fwiw.

    front month rbob gasoline futures just printed a fresh low going back to late 2001.

    @OldFart this should eventually translate into lower prices at the pump amirite? o_O

    I hate to hear that but it seems the “news” media keeps pushing this “work from home” attitude, but blue collar workers can’t do that.

    I do work from home - sole proprietor, but my clients are blue collar workers in steel construction.
    So far, they’re still working, so I’m ok for now.

    Picked up 105 shares of TMF AH at the close price of 38.25. Usually play options on these but the TLT call options have like a .15 bid/ask spread... crazy!!!!
