Like many parents in the United States, we are very concerned about what our child sees on the television.
“That’s just a conspiracy theory!” many will claim. And yet, every once in a while my daughter gets a hold of some new show and I hear dialogue that makes me want to cancel all of my content subscriptions and salt the earth that Hollywood stands on.
Instead, we’ve focused on giving her wholesome, family friendly content.
Like AFV. America’s Funniest Home Videos.
We’re currently in the “Tom Bergeron” arc.
Nvidia and the “Loaded Dock” Trade
He hosted from 2001 all the way up until 2015, when things flew off the rails.
Think about the pre-cellphone era. You aren’t going to pull out a camcorder unless…
Usually it’s a combination of these. Our current favorite is the “wedding picture on the dock” bit.
It’s a classic– a combination of hubris and stupidity that shows up even though everyone knows how this is going to play out.
Here’s the setup… you are a blushing bride on her wedding day, and your dad has splurged for the “waterfront” property.
The photographer wants to get everyone with water in the background for the shot.
So what do you do?
This:
Nvidia and the “Loaded Dock” Trade
Now I only took a few classes in structural engineering, but I do live on the water, and I know the load bearing weight of a 2×6 starts to drop over time.
Which leads to this:
Nvidia and the “Loaded Dock” Trade
I’ve seen dozens of these. I know the setup, I know exactly what’s going to happen, and it’s HILARIOUS EVERY TIME.
It’s embedded so much into my psyche that I have a “loaded dock” trade setup that works just like this.
Imagine you have a company that is the talk of the town. The price skyrockets higher, and fund managers all of a sudden have to answer as to why they don’t have any of this stock in their portfolio.
More and more people step onto the dock so they can look good for the picture…. Until it gets overloaded and the dock sinks.
Just like what has occurred with Nvidia (NVDA):
Nvidia and the “Loaded Dock” Trade
Our Trading Roadmap shows us how much inventory is currently holding this stock at much higher prices.
The dock collapsed, they’re soaking wet, and they look like idiots.
Now let me ask you a question…
Imagine you are one of these fund managers that got rooked into buying the stock right before it took a huge dive.
What are you going to do if the stock comes back to breakeven?
You get off the dock, and you sell your stock.
I wouldn’t be shocked if Nvidia, along with a host of other “popular” tech stocks, sees a second push lower once it comes back to the “loaded dock” prices.
