I remember asking why one of you was buying Ford stock. Now ... wow! I wish I'd bought it too back then.

Yeah yeah. What ever floats your boat
Well me too. Got in at $108.90
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
Are we having fun today

I got shaken out when Covid hit because their balance sheet was in real trouble and they killed their div. It was always a Div stock. I just rode the EV momentum lately. It will likely be years before they make real money on EV but the trend is extremely clear. F and GM are onboard with EV and that is where we are going WAY faster than I thought. TSLA should be very afraid.
RE: What Did You Buy Today? - ken-do-nim - 05-27-2021
Indeed my thought exactly.
It's time that I face the music - my company stock is just not going anywhere anytime soon, and there are all these great investments to be made elsewhere. I will just have to sell a large chunk and start paying extra taxes on every paycheck to compensate.

Is your company down because they are underperforming the sector's business results? If not then move money gradually is the only advice I have because FOMO isn't a good strategy. Selling your company stock, paying taxes then chase this week's hype? You missed the chance to sell the top. Selling the potential bottom doesn't fix that. You are over-invested in company stock so just leave gradually.
RE: What Did You Buy Today? - ken-do-nim - 05-27-2021
That's an excellent point. Looking at the CRM and NOW charts for the last 6 months, they are pretty similar. CRM has clearly the best chart of the 3, but we are definitely moving with the industry.
RE: What Did You Buy Today? - kblake - 05-27-2021
Added CVX, MO, SAFM and TCF
Sold my calls AMC at $24

I wouldn't panic and dump too many shares low if you are just going to buy different overvalued stuff and pay high taxes for the privilege.

> I wouldn't panic and dump too many shares low if you are just going to buy different overvalued stuff and pay high taxes for the privilege.
Of course "low" is relative; the highest I ever sold at was $130 back in December, and it's around $120 now, so selling now would still represent the second highest I've ever sold at. For comparison, I built my patio last year off of $97 a share. I just happened to have missed February's high of $146; there was one open stock trading window day to have done so. I don't think I even realized the window was already open that day.
RE: What Did You Buy Today? - divmenow - 05-28-2021
I decided Bought some DLTR at $99.80 in my sons account. Half position. Will add it should get under $95. I looked at the report. It was very good. Opening up 1000 new stores and the revamp of Family Dollar is really paying off. At 16x next earnings not that expensive.

So 25% off the high. I'd just average out on your open season dates. You'll diversified out of your company stock before too long.

It will be hard for these two chains to screw this up if they watch their debt. People know you can save $20 a week on a smallish cart just cherry picking some of your favorite items you have some "price awareness" of. They have plenty of name brands that ar sometimes 20% off the big grocery chains. There are two DGs in the upscale down I work in, but there is a small poor folks district and it is busy. The store is raggedy and they do one heck of a business with people spending their government help cards, whatever they are called now.
