2019nCoV Chronicles Hi C2, watch & brief am doing, along w/ the gaming described here Message 32542302 Do you remember what I noted to you on 2003 05 01 ? A reminder Message 18904730 :0) <<suspicion of its return will materialize (cold, flu, bronchitis etc) - how do people with a bad cold get on a flight?>> ... and here we are once again. As events not yet dire, given that we can only know once all over whether optimism justified, even as alertness warranted; but beyond staying home, home-school, walk in fresh air, drink fluids, sleep plenty, eat right, keep engaged, wash hands, wear mask if going into enclosed space w/ other occupants, make good use of time, wait it out, not much else is called for at the current moment unless one is being trapped on a cruise ship w/ a bunch of patients during SARS 2003 if you remember I was engaging w/ gold mining options and Canadian energy royalty stocks, along with wines and sausages w/ friends, exercises at the beach, conceiving daughter Coconut Message 19328949 , and 2003 was a very good year at multiple levels If you do not remember, I searched on one key word ("wine") for my postings circa 2003, and below be results ... 2003 05 19 Message 18958019 2003 05 20 Message 18958271 2003 05 27 Message 18976076 2003 05 28 Message 18979484 2003 06 01 Message 18991522 2003 07 20 Message 19126789 2003 09 12 Message 19297657 2003 09 15 Message 19308346 2003 11 05 Message 19467092 2003 11 06 Message 19471243 2003 12 08 Message 19572846 On a different key word ("Bora Bora") but for 2004 ... 2004 01 13 Message 19684563 2004 01 14 Message 19692270 2004 01 17 Message 19702948 2004 01 25 Message 19731390 etc etc, but overarching and generally, events worked out quite well Like 2003 and 2004, 2020 has so far been an excellent year, and as for 2019nCoV, I do as I once did w/r to SARS, spend time w/ wine and sausages w/ friends, exercises at the beach, and as circumstances changed between 2003 and now, walking w/ son Jack Life is a struggle, and one that goes better w/ wines and sausages Endurance war, I have the self-tutorial book published in 1938 passed to me by my dad in 1970, autographed by the author in 1947. Take-away, easier to endure if we are having fun, and if we are having fun, we shall keep enduring, a virtuous circle. The current episode shall too pass and the good times shall return

2019nCoV Chronicles Even as they named the thing officially different I shall stay w/ the same name to ease future search when 2026 something or such requires backward view starting perhaps here Message 32543110 I have been executing the campaign to do w/ Tesla, traded in and out, at first via long-range artillery that be shorting naked but out-of-the-money calls of various strikes / expirations to allow convenient fine-tuning and agile reinforcements Lately, meaning since Monday, have committed ground troops, at corp strength, comprised of armour, armoured infantry, lesser mechanised infantry, to take up positions much closer to the front line trenches, occupy the trenches, thrown against wavering TSLA (translation, bought some TSLA so as to issue covered Calls closer / at the money) and to give chase to retreating same TSLA (selling of massive calls as the shares retreat, but closeout at end of chase) Many positions are closed intra-session, with troops recalled to rest unperturbed, only to be recommitted the following session for intensive high density kinetic combat As Armstrong computer seems to believe TSLA is still strong and can bite back, am making sure I do not go a bridge too far, or worse, on the wrong side of the river without retreating bridge occupied or unwatched. It all means the nature of portfolio changed, from something sensible to something else, ridiculous and scary to look at, harder to dwell on, but as the Jack might say, "whoa!" Am hoping I shall not have to quote the Jack's "oh snap" It is dangerous to wage campaign against a religion, and that is TSLA.
