Is there a simple way to compare my performance to some metric like a S&P 500 index fund? I'm up 25% (which includes dividends) since March 17, the Vanguard ETF's stock price for the same period is up 18%, but I was wondering if there's some webapp or program that I can use to calculate the dividend I would have gotten if I were invested in the index instead of me looking up dividend payouts for the period.
Or another question: generally how much do I have to "beat" the S&P annually to make for the tax disadvantage of most of my stocks not being held for a year+?

Guys did I fuck up?
Made my first call on Draftkings and up on it at like 10$
But I fucked up on friday and made an AMD PUT and I"m down 66$ on it.
Both expire June 19th. Do you think I'll break even at least to close that AMD put. It rose insanely the second I bought it

You'd make more money if you dispensed of the nigros.

What the fuck is your problem?
Dude that guy was literally murdered on fucking camera.
There is no possible way you support what the police officer did
Let’s say I buy 25 contracts of company A, at $17. The trading price right now is $14. The expiration is 6/15. I understand that if my contracts don’t reach $17 by 6/15, they will expire worthless and I will lose all my money. But let’s say it hits $18, before expiration.
Would I be able to sell my contracts for profit at that moment? Also, what if I believe they will go higher than the $18, I hold and they will increase in value? Let’s say they reach $20 on 6/15. Do I have to sell my contract or can I let it expire and it will give me my profit automatically?
career criminals with a history of violence shouldn’t be mourned when they die of a heart attack during arrest

Sort of a tangent, but I still think that the cop killing Daniel Shiver (chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-daniel-shaver-police-video-20171208-story.html) was more disturbing than almost all the jogger deaths. Knee on throat is a pretty graphic image, for sure, plus the fact that it's a white dumpy looking cop doing the damage to a black guy.
Shiver's death was harrowing though. If he had been black and it happened in some Jogger city like LA Chicago or Detroit there would have been Minneapolis-tier chimp outs, no doubt in my mind.
Whites in the United States are pretty docile. Minorities are more prone to civil unrest but end up being useful idiots for politicians/corporations/causes that co-opt their chimp-outs. It's literally already happening with Minneapolis.
