ETSY up another 5.5% this morning and a new all-time high.

Still just a $27B market cap company...
Dirt cheap.    Big Grin

At least it has earnings!  Cool

Doubters like me missed the ride.  I know, it's not to late to get in and drive your shares up higher.    Big Grin

Don't know why, but I had a good laugh at this one.

That's hilarious.  I have this feeling I am going to battle myself to actually spend my retirement account as scheduled.  It's been the plan for 35 years.  I am supposed to start drawing off it in 18-24 months.  But what if I kept the old car and waited another year or two at a mere CAGR 4%?    Big Grin

It's probably the reason many of us build a nice port much earlier than most.  It never mattered how low my wage was early in life.  We find a way to invest.  Then HODL lol.

This resource may be better suited for more established "speculative" trades but I've been knocking around in there a bit. Makes a lot of sense to me.

Good stuff Mike. This is exactly what keeps me with significant cash at all times, and afraid to get too deep in a stock that is clearly parabolic. The fear has cost me some money the past few years but I lived that 1999 MSFT chart with real money. About 15 years to get even. Today I constantly hear people saying MSFT is not the same company now. Seems to me they were pretty dominant in the late 90s so it wasn't like there was a clear warning. The excessive PE took them out, and it will take some new tech stocks out this time.

ETSY up another 5.5% this morning and a new all-time high.

Up 6% this morning to another fresh all-time high.

Up nearly 100% since I dumped ULTA for it on October 30.

A current favorite play that is set to trigger at tomorrow's open. Safe, volatility based trade that makes sense. Can be done with vanilla SPY or SPY options, leveraged S7P ETFs or even futuresI can't find the performance stats anymore but it's about 66% winners with profit factor of 1.5.
Developed by THE options guru, Larry McMillan.

Starts on page 18 and is only a couple of pages. The strategy may speak to some of you. Good luck to all.
