Do you own MARA? Just curious. I know you like that industry 

Have you bought more RIO yet?

MARA - nope, and I don't care if it's taken off like a rocket.  If I were to buy it again, it would go down sooner or later, and I wouldn't end up making money on it.  Like Fenders said, I need to stay away from equities I don't have conviction in.

RIO - up to 30 shares.  Still 70 more to go to reach where I was.  I'm looking forward to finishing it off.

NAIL - wow it's back over 100 last I checked.  I still don't think this is a triple that over time goes up like SOXL, TECL, and TQQQ do.  If I had any now I would surely sell, then wait for it to go back to 60 and start the wheel all over again. 

LABU - my vote for worst triple.  

ORC - keeps slowly sinking.  That 15-16% yield tempts me no longer.

VZ, T - I got out of these, even with the small amounts I had in them

OHI, AGNC - more yield traps I won't return to

NLY - I have about $100 in it as a "watch".  

TTD, NVDA, TSLA, ISRG, ADBE, GOOGL, FB, UPST - I like these tickers but I got out of individual stocks in my ROTH.  I'm sure they will come back next year or the year after in the taxable.

MRNA - if it's going back up I don't want to know.  All my other mistakes this year were papercuts compared to this body blow.  Still, in the long run I believe in their technology and I will eventually bring it back if it is at a sane price.  Ideally when they have some other drugs in phase 3 trials.

Despite all of my missteps this year, the taxable is up 43.3% year to date and the ROTH 66.11%.  That said, the ROTH hasn't moved since August.

Of all the stocks out there to choose from you pick FB and ABNB 

You have a better chance winning $10 on a scratch off lol

ABNB will reach $500 one day. They are a great recovery play. Good news yesterday on the sector. Headed much higher

Conversely, I see Capital One Financial once again at the bottom of the heap today ...

My wife loved the stores and its always crowded. Stock has come down where it could go up 50 points after earnings.

I'm sure I'm the only one who owns this name

Also added NOC, ATVI and new position in HII

Bought some calls in TGT for fun play on earnings.

Closed out my $22 Puts in CCL for a 203% gain

There's a million Puts I would buy right now but not going to play that game until we get closer to Dec in case the market keeps running lol
