I also took a new position in PXD thanks to the secondary at $153
I needed to add another name in the sector to go along with CVX and EOG
now the only other sector I'm underweight in is leisureÂ
Dude I am a charter member of ENPH. I made a few hundred a month the past year selling short puts while it ran. I have a few short puts that are WAY in the money after this bloodbath.  I can only roll forward so much before I own $140 shares.   I said here many times I was good with adding a real position starting at $125. If I am honest I need ENPH to head back to $120ish to be back to even. I wasn;t aggressive enough when it was truly cheap. I'll add shares to my growthy port in the meantime.
Yeah yeah. What ever floats your boat  lol
I am very good with owning ENPH long-term. How happy I am in the end very much depends on the entry. We'll see where the bottom is soon enough.
Well me too. Got in at $108.90Â
This will be a big winner for years to come. You have to add at some point, so why not today. I don't worry about making a few $ here and there . I'm in to win it lolÂ
Are we having fun todayÂ

By the way do we have an updated spreadsheet of the Dividend Increases? The last spreadsheet I have is from 2018 lol
It use to be updated every day with companies dividend increases. What happened to that?
And also not sure if anyone noticed but the last new member post was in Jan. I have some friends who signed up but cant even post because the creator of this site wont verify them and approve them. This site has to have another person as a co owner who can run this site to approve new users. Otherwise this boards will lose interest. Its always the same 7 people lol.
You are right. Anyone know Kerim well enough to raise the subject? It's nothing like a hostile takeover. It can still be his site and he can take full control if he wishes to in the future. That's my opinion anyway.
I've discussed moderation with Kerim once before and just reached out to him to see if that is something that can be transferred to one or more of us regulars.
I don't have his email or any other way to contact him. Hopefully he checks in soon.

Darn. I had his email when I gained access to the site, but the correspondence has been purged out of my google account.
I'm quite curious how Kerim's DGI portfolio is doing, too.

In his profile there is a "send email" link. Not sure if it goes to an inbox that he is actively looking at though, but worth a shot.

Setting up for a trade again, soon. Need VIX to drop back first.

I just sent him a message, we'll see what happens.
Uncle Joe gave us a buying opportunity in railroad stocks.
I bought my first NSC shares. I still think the entry price is damn high, then again that seems to have been the trend for these for the past several years. But I'm ok starting to nibble here, larger purchases will have to wait.
TXN, QCOM and IBM
Had to get some more exposure to tech. And what better way then good dividend growers.

I have accepted the fact that about every good stock I own or care to own will be targeted with political paper at some point. I have also decided that when railroad stocks are truly cheap my port will be melting so I just add slowly. Â
Before the market has it's next mood swing I closed some option that got profitable fast. Multiple contracts in WY and HAS. Thanks to Ken for HAS. That one wasn't even on my radar before you mentioned it. The nieces and nephews Christmas toys are paid for now. Still have a few long shares and wish I had bought more a few weeks ago. It does look like a good DGI stock to hold.
I don't own HAS. Toys to me are a a fad. You get 1-2 hot toys a year and the rest sits on shelves.  Kids now a days don't even play with toys anymore. Its all games on the IPAD, Fortnite or Roblox.
The big generator for Hasbro is Magic the Gathering. Where would the growth be without the card business?? NERF is not as popular as it was 2 years ago. My kids and friends use to love it and play every day. They lost interest and haven't picked up one in years. And my kids' are 7.8, 11 and 14.Â
HAS looks good but I just don't trust it especially with the shutdown over and kids will be doing other things now and the toy industry will slow.Â
But that's just my opinion.
