We saw the S&P 500 rebound some today and managed to stall at 4900; it was the spot where the index opened yesterday. Given the results from Meta and its big move higher, it seems we could fill that gap tomorrow

While there is a modest implied volatility plateau involving at-money options, we see that there is a pronounced, steep downside skew in the front expiration, and more subtle, but still typically risk-averse skews in the following two weeks:

Companies Scramble to Avoid the "Trump Tweet"
Companies know not to get on #Trump's bad side, but it will hopefully be the average American who benefits from this. And while yes, many companies were planning these expansions anyway, pressure from Trump can't hurt to ensure those jobs stay in the US. Plus a little good PR never hurt a company. $WMT $AMZN
Just How Dangerous Is Amazon's Alexa?
I agree... anything can be hacked. It is only a matter of time before"always on" devices like #Amazon'ss Echo are targeted as eaves dropping devices. Hackers, corporate espionage, or if the 2016 election is any indication, foreign governments are all likely perpetrators. $AMZN
The Battle of Smartphone Assistants: Siri Vs. Google Assistant
I use #Alexa often. It can't answer nearly as many questions as #Siri, but can have "skills" added, app-like programs to do everything from play games to control your smart home. $AMZN $AAPL
I've never used #GoogleAssist and hadn't realized #Google was getting into this space but could see them being formidable. But I've never had #Cortana successfully answer anything I've ever asked it. All it does is direct me to a web search. No idea what #Microsoft is trying to accomplish with that but I would place them dead last. $GOOGL $MSFT
The Battle of Smartphone Assistants: Siri Vs. Google Assistant
How would you say #Apple's #Siri or #Google's #GoogleAssistant compares with #Microsoft's #Cortana or #Amazon's #Alexa? $AAPL $GOOGL $MSFT $AMZN
Amazon Says Prime Video Now Available In Over 200 Countries Around The World
#Amazon is definitely going to give #Netflix a run for its money with this expansion!! $NFLX $AMZN
Amazon Says Prime Video Now Available In Over 200 Countries Around The World
Interesting that it seems to be a stand alone service from #Amazon in countries where they don't offer #AmazonPrime. But how much will they charge after the introductory offer expires? I wonder... Either way, it could be some unwanted competition for #NEtflix which has invested heavily in this area. $AMZN $NFLX
Tech May Hold Key To Continued Santa Rally
The article is cogent and you are right in suggesting that Tech needs to get involved if the Santa or #Trump rally is to continue! What puzzles me is $AMZN's lack of involvement in the rally, same goes for $FB but they are fighting the currents caused by inaccurate ad metrics and fake news! AAPL is a one product company and lately they can't even produce a decent phone. AMZN, however, has no excuse. A 55% YOY increase in AWS and stupendous sales numbers have not moved the needle. $GOOGL is the only #FANG member that has shown some positive momentum. In the absence of Biotech and Pharma, Tech needs to fill that void or the rally has seen its best days already!
Will Netflix Ever Disappoint Investors?
Interesting read but I have to take issue with your comment that "For creating new content, there are no barriers to entry." How can you say that? Creating a quality TV program or movie can take hundreds of millions of dollars. Especially if it involves a cast with star power. #Netflix and #Amazon definitely excel at this. Personally I think #Hulu and #YouTube fall short. $NFLX $AMZN
Amazon Goes Offline With Bricks-And-Mortar Grocery Chain; Envisions Opening 2,000 Stores
It all comes down to this: "#Amazon automatically determines what items customers take from the shelves. "
No idea how they do this. But if it works, it could solve all the problems and complaints of the programs that came before. It would also limit petty theft/shoplifting which is a major problem in this industry. $AMZN
Amazon Goes Offline With Bricks-And-Mortar Grocery Chain; Envisions Opening 2,000 Stores
I'm curious to see if #Amazon can make this work. $AMZN always manages to do things better. The idea is great, but to date, implementations have been poor.
