[quote=svelte]Wow, we’re all doing well! Beating the indexes!
Can’t sneeze at that.[/quote]
I’m really thankful that at least for now financially I have been mostly unaffected by the covid induced downturn despite my company initially being the first one affected by all the closures. We’ve had to scramble to reinvent ourselves very quickly and even so, it’s no walk in the park. We aren’t out of the woods yet so we will see. Knock on wood. The need to do contact tracing for many companies has helped us pay the bills …. for now…
And the only reason why my portfolio looks good is because in my trading account, I regularly move in and out of positions, which while normally underperforms indexes in the past,.in the current volatile environment has worked out well. How long it lasts, who knows, but I did a few weeks ago swear I was going to sit out the rest of the year….only to reenter a small position when the Dow fell back to 25k…..Now that it’s 27k again, if the 500pt futures rise hold up in the regularly trading session, I’m going be moving back into more cash.
Damn Robinhood day traders that drove Tesla to $1790/share….lol
Anyway, folks doing well, count your blessings and give thanks …and try to help those around you that light not be so lucky… You never know what tomorrow brings…
