Let's see what an editor over at Forbes thinks...

“If you look at the fundamentals of the company, it’s poised to go down a lot more,” Dan Alexander told CNN’s Erin Burnett on Monday. “If you look at the number of users this company has, the amount of revenue that it generates, you know, its valuation should be measured in the hundreds of millions of dollars, at the most. Right now, the public markets are valuing it at 3.5 billion.”
“So that means this stock should fall by at least another 90% before the metrics start to make any amount of sense,” he continued.

Dave -

I think you have the basic gist. But maybe not the details.

A $17.50 put gives you the right to sell at $17.50.

Currently ....
It will costs you $8 20 to buy a Put option, to sell stock at $17.50 in November.

Some possible outcomes:
1) Stock is above $17.50 - you lose the $8.20 you spent.
(You won't use the option to sell the stock for $17.50. You can sell the stock for more than that without using the option).......
$8.20 loss/share

2) Stock is equal $9.30.
You spent $8.20 on the option, you can buy the stock for $9.30 and sell it for $17.50.
Total sale = $17.50
Total cost = $8.20 option + $9.30 for stock
Thus break even is $9.30

3) Stock is $0.
You can buy stock for $O.
You can sell for $17.50
Max Gain = $17.50 - $8.20 (option price)
Max Gain $9.30

One might say, that since the breakeven point is $9.30 - then this is some kind of estimated value.

Actually - percentage losses and percentage gains are not the same (i.e. a 50% loss is the same as a 100% gain).......

In short...
A rational person would believe this stock is very, very likely to be worthless before they would pay $8.20 for that option.

Pretty sure that's what I said, Assuming you do not own the stock today, you will need to buy it in Nov to sell it with the Put, so when I mentioned buying it at Market Rate, thats cause well thats what you will do to sell it with the put.

And that's the point that is hard to interpret from your Put values, from a glance for a non-options person.

A high sell point for a future put, indicates, the market is saying oh its probably gonna be lower than this, so I want a bunch of guaranteed money to get into this deal.

Opposite, if a Nov $17.50 on DJT were selling for $1 that's because the market see's it as a Free $1 cause almost certainly the stock will be more than that in a few months, so everyone is willing to sell the put and high supply, low demand, price falls.

I havnt really looked, but its not on the front base of any news sources that trump has lost 4 billion dollars in a single week.

He's got a long way to go before reaching Musk-level losses.

There is NOTHING more exciting than watching a deranged geriatric make up incoherent lies on social media.

It's like watching C-Span when you are black-out drunk!!

That's the thing with Trump, you can't keep up with all his shit. It's just an endless spew that no one can keep up with.

Like trying to track his lies. While you are writing one down, he's already let 2 or 3 more go. You can't keep up with it.

I'm sometimes amazed at the amount of energy and cognitive bandwidth it takes for HIM to keep up with all his BS. I think it was Mark Twain that said, "never tell lies and you have nothing to remember", something to that effect. If only this much organization was used for good.

Off topic, but I saw one of those in the wild over the weekend. I guess I was expecting more, not sure more what. It just didn't look impressive at all. I much preferred the Tundra I was driving in looks and definitely in capabilities.

Sorry don't see how to get daily % loss.

I know multiple ways to get the daily close, open, range. I could just export to excel calc. daily % change and plot it or put in table, just not that interested to do it.

I heard they were going to stream, Stormy and Trump doing the nasty, and oh would that be nasty.

They will have a reality game show, Grab em by the Pussy. each contestant is given a cat backpack to wear (what where you thinking?)

They will also have the game show, Can you get me out of this oval office.

A tutorial show, how to cheat at golf.

Who wants to be a Dr. You evaluate trump them provide a medical summary of him. He picks which is most accurate and the winner gets an PHD from trump University.
