Mental health related justifications are a slippery slope when it comes to due process and forfeiture of our rights.
Today there are some people that consider 'conservative values' as a mental deficiency or a problem that needs to be corrected.
Many of the Reddit folks that are a part of this activity (WSB) aren't necessarily doing this for the money (although that's important) they are really wanting to put the screws to the big money hedgefunds that make a living out of squeezing the life from vulnerable businesses.

For those asking about 'covered' versus 'naked', as long as you are 'buying' the call/put, your loss is fixed. I.e. limited risk.
It is when you start 'selling' either puts or calls that your risk become more uncertain.
Moral of the story, buy all the calls/puts you want, you can't lose...
Interesting perspective- selling puts or buying calls.
I'm not an options expert, but if I were bullish on a stock (and I didn't own the underlying stock) I'd buy calls. Your risk (loss) is fixed (what you pay for the calls) and profit is unlimited.
Options for this stock don't appear to have...
Correct, as long as you're comfortable with purchasing the stock in the event the option expires in the money. It wasn't clear if you're referring to naked or covered puts. I'd be cautious of the former as your loss is only limited to the stock not being able to go below zero; unless you have...

Try Ally Invest (used to be Trade King) for option and stock trading. Options have a sliding scale fee, but can be purchased/sold for as little as $0.50 per contract. Plus, they don't require a margin account for trading covered options.
The glass top induction stoves are nice, but I hated the cleanup afterward. Because the top was black, I was super paranoid of scratching the glass during cleaning, so I used an ultra mild liquid/paste (almost like polishing compound) to clean mine. No scratches, but damn, it took a lot of...
Only mechanical locks for me, preferably the level 2 (or whatever S&G calls the version above base model) or better. Best advice I was given by a locksmith was to turn the dial slowly so that you could almost read the numbers as you rotated it. I.e. don't spin the ***** to quickly get to your...
I use a seasoned cast iron flattop and skillet for high heat and food that has a high thermal inertia (i.e. large steaks or pieces of chicken) as the lighter duty pans will lose too much heat then these are added. I normally clean the pan while it is still hot, which is just a wet towel (or...
