Obituary: Farewell to Todd's PnL (August 2, 2024 - Nov. 5, 2024)

Funny stock market joke

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Todd's PnL, which departed this world in a blaze of glory on November 5, 2024. Born with high hopes and a decent start, Todd's PnL lived fast and traded faster, succumbing to an addiction to 0DTE options.

Todd’s PnL was known for its meteoric highs, fueled by reckless bets on SPY calls at 9:31 a.m., and its catastrophic lows, which occurred at 9:33 a.m. Todd's PnL had a brief, tumultuous existence, marked by spreadsheets, caffeine-fueled decisions, and phrases like "This can’t possibly go wrong."

Friends recall the unshakable optimism of Todd’s PnL. His portfolio’s death spiral began with a YOLO on FOMC day and ended with a heartbreaking "Trade Rejected: Insufficient Funds."

Todd’s PnL is survived by his credit card bill and a margin call from his broker.

A memorial service will be held at the local WeWork, where attendees will light candles and chant, “Buy the dip.” In lieu of flowers, send puts.
