The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Lately I've been estimating price trajectory by looking at possible future average P/B numbers of 1.37, 1.40, 1.45 and nominal growth rates of 1.5%, 2.0%, and 2.5% per quarter, just to get a cloud of reasonably plausible futures over the next couple of years. As a hobby I've been writing calls whose exit dates/prices are entirely above the cloud, and puts whose entry dates/prices are entirely below the cloud.

Jim, care to part the clouds and spill a few more details about that cloud range of yours?
It looks like prime put-selling weather out there, my own nebula whispers May or June around $440.
TIA
