(0) Let us actuate conjecture, test the premise, try the theory, and see if the idea works or not ...
(1) The Tesla trades I did as a matter-of-course, and closed-out same trading session, for the trouble of staying at iPad beyond 9:00pm whilst watching Agatha Christie movie. Have other long-term-short-and-hold short naked Call positions time-decaying on my counterparties :0)

The experience has been positive, especially as I had to clear my mind of distractions and so unloaded most shares.
Message 32573590 (2020 02 27) luckier than smart
Ever since I initiated the play in early February, TSLA has been a dependable safe-to-short, albeit at times thrilling, especially over the weekends.

(2) SBSW, Berkshire Hathaway, DRD options were done to ... conjecture, premise, theory, idea, ... try on for size ... long-range artillery ... etc etc ... and let us see what if anything Berkshire manages to shop for us, undoubtedly w/ US Congressional and White House and Wall Street support
When the going gets rough, and it is, we best go w/ Team A, and Berkshire is Team A
(3) The DRD straight add-buy was done because I like the idea of a gold tailing processing operation - in effect a bank backed by gold minus the risks of lending, trading and such, and paying a healthy dividend.
Also environmentally sound as it cleans up tired tailings dam and preempts acid water run-off and generally supported by the authorities.
Has no exploration risks given that every ton of tailings is meticulously assayed and recorded.
No mining risk because it doesn’t bother with such dirty hard work.
Let’s see if sound.
