Yeah, that's why I didn't post the Malaysia chart. I didn't think it was safe for women and children.
I managed to trade my way out this morning. I was actually surprised that it didn't gap up more this morning. I had gone short in the after hours Friday but then was sweating all weekend because I was thinking about how they could screw everyone over the most. With all the 3600 puts that closed in the money and were assigned, it just seemed logical for them to gap it up big this morning and then run it on the squeeze.
Luckily my short in after hours Friday was pretty much the top tick around 3595ish so this morning in premarket, I was able to unload as they started bringing it up.
I was still carrying the underwater long but just closed it out and came out smelling like a rose somehow. Now flat and catching my breath.
Anyone have experience building with posts in the ground in clay? I found out why my tractor sinks in a spot in the spring up to the axles but the ground is like concrete now. Had my son in law on the tractor yesterday augering while I was on the backhoe pushing down on the auger. Managed to chew down about 4 feet and it's pure powdery clay all the way down. I could open a pottery business. My concern is that the posts are going to stay wet surrounded by clay and rot faster. Concrete actually attracts moisture so that probably won't help. It's not going to be a waterproof building so those plastic post protectors could have rain seep in the top and hold moisture too unless I caulk the top and then remember to keep it current. Not sure how I could soak the posts in used oil since they're 16' long so tough to stand up with the bottoms in a barrel.
It is scary that our drought is so bad that 4 feet down, the clay was still powder dry.
