    Maybe I should learn options cause I think I could crush it.
    poor excuse plenty of information and videos to learn from. being lazy is an excuse.

        I put some money into BA this morning at 185. Think they will rebound back over 200 soon and then I’ll prolly sell again.

        Read an article on MRNA last night that worried me so sold that stock. Too risky and I don’t like risky plays.

          I'm probably not gonna mess around too much, market seems a little volatile today, not sure which way it's gonna go. Just added shares of Facebook and Apple for retirement fund, bought some SPXL for day trade and GNUS for swing trade. Might jump on the TVIX before closing if it's still down to below 170 because I think Monday will be another blood bath.

                My thought exactly, definitely more than plausible.

                        Stocks definitely cooling off from pre-market levels. Not seeing the green like we saw an hour ago. BA has gone from 190 to 180 in 30 minutes.

                          permabear

                          i have multiple family members who are permabears too and my theory is it's because they are not in the market (for various reasons) and they are feeling "left out" as the rest of us make money. another word for it would be "haters".

                          LOL

                            That's a pretty solid theory lol. Chicken and egg though. If you are "in the market" it's probably cuz you're bullish and if you're out it's cuz you're bearish. But there's no doubt that getting in and out is not for the faint of heart. That's why the advice for long-termers is usually completely set it and forget it.

                            Back to the topic though, the gains are almost gone and might be wiped out in minutes. This seems to confirm a downleg here in the near-term. Unless of course it doesn't.

                                  i always expected a down leg after the surge but more of the garden variety 10% or so correction.

                                  a full retracement and retest of the march low was and is 99% out of the question in my mind.

                                  1% chance we shut down the economy again between now and the election. maybe less than 1%

                                    Fortunately i unloaded everything back the end of Feb. and bought back in the first week of April. Lucky or smart or perhaps just intuition not sure. Was down a lot when i got out, since getting back in, back to where i was in March and have doubled what i was down. I had some Reits then, that thank God i sold because they have not rebounded like others except for AGNC. When i bought back in i made sure i was very well diversified with some like BA MMM SQ HD EVA DOW INTC and O. Plus others. Have several dividend paying stocks and just reinvest those into more shares. This business is all about accumualation of shares even at my age. If your trying to accumulate wealth i see trying to catch the falling knife as they say a losing proposition. jmo. Your right D, gewtting in and out is a tough way to gain wealth.

                                            Buy the rumor and sell on the news. This is what the market is doing.

                                              Firmly in the red now and starting to look like freefall again. Last couple hours could bring anything. In this market, a day trades like a week and a week like a month.

                                                200 MA critical point for S&P
                                                must hold or the 50 is next around 2900
                                                then maybe even the triple supports at 2800

                                                but it won't be abandoned until the 200 is given up on.

                                                tech and semiconductors look ready for more consolidation lower

                                                  Too much stress here

                                                  If you bought in March just wait 5 years and you’ll be really happy

                                                  Buy the dip now and check back in 5 years and you’ll be happy

                                                  March lows will never be retested

                                                    I traded the TVIX all the way up to 230 during lunch and pulled out within an hour. Quick grand and I was out.

                                                      So close to pulling the trigger on Tesla, still hoping to see below 800 before years end

                                                          it's like you and I are twins LOL

                                                          i actually have a 4 year outlook to spring 2024 (next prez election cycle) and keep telling my closest peeps that the true measure should be at least 4 years. i am holding best in breed companies and ONLY buying more when the stock dips a material amount and am also considering market and economic conditions.

                                                          my rule: NEVER add to your position when the stock is above your COST BASIS. never never never.
