Hanes Brands Gets a Wedgie
I’ve lost track of how many times I suggested this as a short, both here and on tastytrade. I think the quantity was “a lot”
Smear One
A Sloper asked me a few days ago if it bothered me to have to wake up so early (I got up at 4:45 this morning). After all, the markets open at 6:30 a.m. My response was basically – – are you kidding me? I love my time zone!
