ParticipantMy head spins like crazy seeing a handful of companies marching up in double, triple digits day in/out. I too unloaded my dead money in UBS that I have held since 2017. I put all proceeds into aapl @455 and already getting >10% returns in less than two weeks. The market is acting really stupid. If the crash in March was a train-wreck in slow motion as scaredy was saying. I think this train-wreck is happening in front of our eyes in SUPER slow motion.
I think in the end, the house always win. In this case the house are those big institutions. The gamblers are the robinhood crowds. It’s not going to end well for the robbing hoods.
ParticipantI get this weird feeling that the number of stocks-related posts on this forum is a good indicator of an impending market correction.
Here’s my prediction – we’re not going to make it past election day unscathed.

Since then, companies have gotten a lot smarter. Many have a company policy against you or a family member owning derivatives of the company stock….
[/quote]I wonder how that would hold up in court – how can you control what a family member does?[/quote]
Probably as enforceable as the new home builders telling the buyers “thou shall not resell within the next 12 months”.
Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Dow up about 10% since this post. Nasdaq up closer to 20%. Like the say. Don’t drink the water in Mexico. Glad I didn’t
YTD trading portfolio not as good as Coronita. Up 30%.
YTD long term conservative dividend/total return portfolio. Up 8%[/quote]After many years of being stuck in neutral (making good money with established strategy and then losing most back by deviating from it), my day-trading account has been 50%+ the last few years. A good chunk of the gains has been through dividends and the nickles and dimes I collected selling covered call options. I have more or less decided dividends+option$ is how I am going to play with my trading account. My goal is to net 10-15% yearly just on selling options. I am getting about 12% so far this year.
I am interested in hearing from others on their trading strategy. I think the days of chasing high-flying stocks is behind me. I just want a steady stream of returns from lesser volatile stocks.
ParticipantI am still roughly 60% cash. I am happy to see new highs, but I am really biding my time for the next melt down. The best thing about it is I actually sleep well with my current investment portfolio.
Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]on the other hand, never tell a fellow religious person you’ll be praying for them. too much to lay on anyone. if you must do it, do it silently.
[/quote]Not sure if that’s how it works with the religious. They are not praying unless other could hear or see that they are praying. That’s why many insisting on reopening of the churches amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Silently praying at home is not effective. Apparently, g*d only hangs out at churches.
ParticipantWhat happened to the placebo effect? Unless the recipients, deep down, don’t believe in the prayers themselves and realized that if people are praying for them then that means they’re really in deep sh*t?
Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]Prayer kills[/quote]
For many, g*d is real but the the virus ain’t. To each his own.
ParticipantIf you want that wet, shiny looks to the concrete then lacquer it is. I don’t think you’ll get that with acrylic polyurethane. This is a relatively easy job that you could do in a day or take your time and spread it over a couple weekends. You can pick up the lacquer sealer at a local White Cap store for about $300 for a 5 gallon bucket. Just make the measurements and the guys at the store will let you know how many buckets you’ll need.
Participant[quote=Coronita]Add Karl to the list of Karens…

BTW: this is (was?) his shitty company
https://www.linkedin.com/company/solid8llc/
Looks like his shitty 2-10 person company went down…
https://solid8.io/Like i said. People like him aren’t sorry and really apologizing because they are sorry.
They are sorry they got caught…
Adios![/quote]
I’d rather focus on the waitress for how swiftly and fiercely stepping in and put the englishman in his place.

I’ll even throwing in a tip
https://www.gofundme.com/f/waitress-gennica-cochranParticipantSaw a news clip yesterday. The doctors cited these reasons:
1. Invasive ventilators are absolutely last-ditch effort, last resort measure. They are relying more on non-invasive methods that don’t require intubation. My guess is a lot of folks died not because of the virus but because of the infections brought on by the intubations.
2. Lessons learned
3. Medications – they are using a variety of meds that have some effectiveness against the virus.
Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Am I the only one who finds these posts unreadable?[/quote]
Phaster knows he’s not g*d. Therefore, he brought the “data”.
ParticipantThe stock market is in the buy-high-sell-higher beast mode not unlike the dot bomb era. This too will end badly for a lot of folks. I am more convinced to hang on tight with the cash.
