    Dave and busters makes me nervous. Not sure how people will think about their kids being in a potential Corona Virus Epi Center. A place you are encourage to Eat, put hands around face and food. Then play on game machines that a bunch of other kids and adults are touching while sneezing and coughing. Tough place

        Was looking at Dave and Busters as well.

        A new one is being built out here in the mall, taking the old Sears section.

        Even though the markets seem to be propped up a bit I think the concept of long term is a little twisted right now.

        We still aren't anywhere near election night levels and I think we could head that way, maybe 19k on the dow.

        It's a tough call as some things to look like good deals but I just don't like what I see.

        'Hold up, wait a minute, something 'aint right."

          considering the fact that a total of 3 CHILDREN have died from coronavirus, i think my kids will be fine

          think about that for a minute, 3 children total... over 1,000 kids are gonna die from drowning this year, and 3 are gonna die from coronavirus... yet people feel safer taking their kids to a pool or the beach than a dave and busters? totally illogical

            Whoah there dude. I didn't say kids aren't safe. Re-read my post bro. I'm ready to go out also. But, from an investor stand point, you have to read the room. and the room as too many scared parents thanks to your news stations

              i hear you, i guess i was more responding to homie's post about not going there for a year

              i'm gonna be in there the 1st day it opens, i think i have enough points for about 2000 servings of nachos

              but if our snowflake society is gonna totally melt and hide under the bed over something that is gonna kill about the same amount of people as the flu or car accidents, then what are we gonna do when we have BIG problems?

                But it's not illogical to worry that the kid will pick it up and then give it to dad or grandpa.

                  lol.

                  Dave and Busters is for adults and kids can go if accompanied by adults.

                  I've never been to one, are the generally kids there? They do have birthday party packages and some family type offerings.

                  In general, on a busy night, is it adult or child dominated?

                  Maybe weeknights look different than the weekends, I don't really know.

                  Just seems like they were geared for adults.

                    Yes there are kids but nothing like Chuck E cheese or Boomers. Haven't been in a while but loved the food, and they used to have a happy hour that was half off all cocktails. It's a fun spot

                      they still do, 4-7pm and 10pm-midnight

                      kvb, i would say it all depends on what kind of parties are going on, but for the most part it's more adults than kids especially in the bar/restaurant area

                        asymptomatic ppl esp kids can be carriers and get mom and dad and grandma and grandpa sick. let's get that established and move on.

                        and let's get back to stocks.

                        BA trading all over the place again.

                          totally agree that the debt is unpayable, if you add in unfunded ss/medicare, then we're at 100 trillion (1 million for every household lol)

                          if govt pays the 2.9 trillion they borrowed from s.s. and medicare IT WOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM!

                              Missed the big move on APA. Was afraid of oil then $4.30 turned into $13 in a month.

                              Seems like everything looks the same with a drop and recovery about midway, S&P, DOW, tons of individual equities.

                              Then there's GLD, or Gold, which has more than recovered.

                              Then there's AMZN and Netflix.

                              Unreal.

                                  Looks like EA and ATVI (Electronic Arts and Activision) have made their run and even though they have benefited through the lockdown they look like mutliple tops.

                                  Even if there are good earnings, and the fact is they have had a huge rise in business, analysts seem cautious.

                                  They aren't sold on how many customers will remain as we enter a recession.

                                  Hardware sales have been there as well so I think they will retatin some business.

                                  I would look to buy these guys if they do drop in price again. Just not sure of my overall strategy with them.

                                      I've been looking at entering the oil market sector myself. It has been beaten down and now is the time in my opinion.

                                        any consolidations on the road to high 20s for starters, those won't last.
                                        companies are another thing entirely, however. a big part of the reason for this price bottom formation
                                        is the shutting off of wells. Exploration and production companies, pass... because they won't be realiable
                                        unless WTI sees upper 30s at the least anyway.

                                          Congrats! What is your total portfolio you are trading? Most of what I hold are preservation of capital and higher priced stocks, so the DIV relative to the price is small. My point was for the folks just beginning with small $$ portfolio's hoping to help them understand that dividends are great but not to depend on if your portfolio is smaller. BOL.

                                            Are we overbought? Seems like the highs are close to in?? I'm reading the virus is already mutating into possibly stronger version. Having a hard time seeing how the next 9 months are rosy given the virus, questions regarding reopening, and election.

                                            Personally, thinking of taking some $$ off the table. Thoughts??

                                              Best bets are probably the banks.... then airlines, but those haven't bottomed out yet. I think the banks have pretty much bottomed out.

                                                  companies are another thing entirely, however. a big part of the reason for this price bottom formation
                                                  is the shutting off of wells. Exploration and production companies, pass... because they won't be realiable
                                                  unless WTI sees upper 30s at the least anyway.

                                                        I took JPM at 87 a few weeks ago. BkofAma and wells cheaper but I wanted what I consider best of breed.

                                                                    Even if there are good earnings, and the fact is they have had a huge rise in business, analysts seem cautious.

                                                                    They aren't sold on how many customers will remain as we enter a recession.

                                                                    Hardware sales have been there as well so I think they will retatin some business.

                                                                    I would look to buy these guys if they do drop in price again. Just not sure of my overall strategy with them.
