I think the psychologically most difficult scenario will be when BOC drops to, say, 11 by expiration in November. Then to exercise the call and buy the shares for essentially 14.5 (10+4.5), while they trade at 11, is hard. In such a scenario, many people w[...]

Haven't seen that, I'll look for it.[...]

Yep, I could have bought puts instead. Prices similar, outcome likely similar... because this is in a non-taxable account, the difference is mostly psychological.[...]

This time the Fool claims to have an AI system that scores companies on their use or their shift to using AI, and a system giving expected stock price ranges, and that the former is a "game changer" for the Fool. They issued an "emergency buy" alert for N[...]

Technical question, Travis, as I'm often confused about options: Couldn't you have bought put options and kept the shares you had? How would that compare with selling shares and buying call options in terms of advantages (or disadvantages)?[...]

NO, I Don't think America will accept a Newsom presidency unless they want to destroy this nation like as electing Trudeau has done to Canada[...]

I'll add that hopefully they are considering more frequent communication to stockholders. I think it will be necessary to help the stock price in the short to medium term.[...]

Thanks for the early article, it convinced me against option 3 which I'll admit I was contemplating today (before reading this post) and in hindsight too emotional and likely to be a bad decision. My fear in the medium term is that there is going to be a l[...]

I have a few hundred coins (silver) that came to me randomly over the decades (so I know little in terms of collecting).Seems like only 1 of 3 variables being discussed? While looking at the average premium vs the current on coins...wouldn't a main co[...]

As luck would have it, Boston Omaha (BOC) released its quarterly earnings about an hour after I posted this articleNo surprises on the financial front, book value is essentially unchanged at about $17 as of March 31, with the most meaningful change on [...]

Good point. The internet has certainly helped with some solid online dealers... but it's also true that there are very few physical coin dealers left, so those who really like to deal in cash and keep it genuinely private are increasingly out of luck.[...]

I once accepted 200 pieces of silver as partial payment on a sailboat. That was fun![...]

I started buying K-Rands in the late '70's from a local coin shop. In December '79 the coin shop owner was interviewed on local Public Television. The gold price was in the news and he was asked about it's prospects. He appeared visibly nervous which I [...]

Could be, I own some of both. What worries me is that most of the time Bitcoin actually trades like a 3X levered ETF on the Nasdaq 100... much better growth in price than gold over pretty much any timeframe, of course, but also only a couple decades of hi[...]

Thanks... fingers crossed that we won't need the insurance, but I agree that it helps calm the mind a bit.[...]

Hopefully we won't have the kind of dystopian outcome that would bring that distinction between collectible and bullion coins.And just FYI, even the good ol' American Eagle coin has a face value of only $50 these days, so not much more dramatic than [...]

I am an expert in gold coins and most precious metals as I have been buying and studying the metals markets for decades. I have bought many times from APMEX and am one of their highest tier clients. APMEX is extremely reliable, but they have some of the hi[...]
