    Jumped in on some DIS puts for Sept (95 strike). Admittedly, I may be completely wrong about how fucked Disney is, but if I'm correct  the magnitude of the  revenue shortfall should be apparent by the time they release their Q3 numbers. Over 1/3 of their revenue comes from the Parks division, and even if they have the balls to open up their parks, how many people are going to a.) feel comfortable milling around those parks b.)  feel comfortable loading up their credit cards to pay for the experience? #STONKS

    That is a interesting one. We have a trip for the end of may first week of June we have not cancelled. But likely will just due to the fact the park might not be open. However we are also looking at rescheduling as soon as we can. I think a lot of people will be eager to be back. I also think (at least for the US) many people will avoid international vacations so US desitnations will see a quicker recovery. 

    I dont think the parks have to get back to 100% revenue to justify the current stock price. I think the reoccuing revenue from Disney+ and if the parks get to 70% revenue is more then enough to justify the current price. 

  2. Yes it is being considered by the big houses. 

    Disney announced Artemis Fowl will go straight to streaming - https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2020-04-03/disneys-artemis-fowl-will-skip-theaters-and-go-straight-to-streaming-on-disney

    The new Trolls movie is also going straight to streaming for $19.99 - https://www.distractify.com/p/trolls-world-tour-streaming

    I believe other movies will follow soon as more studios test out this idea.

    I was just thinking of jumping off TD.  Don't like the layout.  But if it works for the people who know a lot more than me (Trey and Nuggets) I'll have to reconsider.  I did get hit with a trade fee last week for some reason, but haven't again?  I haven't dug into it but sure as shit did.  I also haven't been hit for several other trades in last few weeks so who knows.

    was it for options trading? I know E*Trade does free trades of stocks, but buying and selling options still has a fee.

    Air Canada has mistake $350 RT Denver to Australia for Jan/Feb 2021. Too risky as tempting as that is 

     

    What is the risk? We will be able to travel by then and if they cancel the flight because it is a mistake they will refund you.

    A good while back on the old board, I made a post about piri piri chicken in Austin. My prayers were answered in the form of Tio Pepe, located in Lincoln Village at 290 and 35 (I refuse to call it whatever they're calling it now). It's a local restaurant, with outstanding reviews, and truly terrific food. He's cut back a lot on staffing, and could really use the patronage.

    If you're looking for an extremely flavorful, healthy option, I can't recommend it enough.

    Website is down, hope thats not a bad sign.

    So is overnight trading up or down?  It's getting worse out there, but it seems like the downslope is (sorry for this) priced in.  I think we'll be choppy until something new, bad, happens.

    I don't think we see them until about 5 o'clock on Sunday evenings.

     As far as the daycare example, our school daycare has refunded tuition and all spots are held until they can reopen so it depends on the daycare.

    Ours did not do that and we are paying full tuition. On top of that (and this is the part that bothers me) the teachers working are getting paid, but those that are not due to low attendance or because they are self isolating are NOT getting paid. In my mind if I am paying full tuition all the teachers should be getting paid.
