Oh gosh, Cracker Barrel is the poster child for huge-run-up-then-flat.  Great stock to own from late 2008 to 2016.

CBRL is a theme restaurant geared towards southern food and country anywhere food.  Not something a Bostoner would be able to fully comprehend but they have been wildly successful for decades and paid good dividend.  The stock is volatile as hell compared to most large chain restaurants lately.  Old folks like me understand the theme but it will be a tough challenge going forward.  It's not a big attraction to city kids that will be tomorrow's

I don’t agree with you at on CBRL. It’s for all ages and you can get breakfast, lunch and dinner at all times. They cater to everyone. I go myself every Sunday and there packed every time.  From young to old. Doesn’t matter. My kids love going there and playing checkers and looking in the store. They have so many cool and interesting items. They will always be successful because people like that southern comfort food. And there entire menu is affordable. That’s a huge plus. They have the best hash browns lol. ]The numbers don’t lie.  They have been is business since 1969. So this has been a huge successful story for a long, long time. They are not going anywhere.  So enough of your negative talk. Your just mad because you didn’t buy with it was under $70 a year ago lol. They killed earnings. They killed the outlook. They reinstated the dividend. Not many companies during a pandemic can say that.

I've traded it for years and probably held it longer than you have as well.  So hush your sassy mouth.  I eat there now and then too.  Gotta run.  Need to buy some of those $45 PENN shares you promised me.

I totally agree on CBRL. They are and will be very successful for many more years and beyond. They have the right formula. Fenders just doesn't know a good thing when he sees it. Must have fell off the rocker at CBRL and has been bitter ever since

LOL I really like the place though my last meal their was some cheapened up processed food.  (not breakfast).  A couple times a month for my wife and/or I.

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 leisure 

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 $108.90 

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  . I'm in to win it lol 

Are we having fun today

Just ease it in slowly city kid lol.  Breakfast is safe.  Most of their dinner entries are good, but you are warned the sides are country.  The turnip greens with a drizzle of vinegar and the fried okra is really tasty.  Seriously though they have completely normal meals.  Whatever the evening special is will be good.  Its mostly a good place to raise your cholesterol a couple points in one sitting.

I don't know who's in charge of this site but a friend of my sons just signed up on here but cant post anything. Says he's not registered and he already activated his email and verified it.

His user name is MrFortune

Hope you can help him.

I added some ABBV, and PM today

Google says our closest Cracker Barrel is a 5:30 drive. Don't think we will be contributing to that dividend any time soon.

Maybe try the "send email" function as he is pretty busy with life and doesn't visit here too often.

Got rid of a few low share count ETFs in the ROTH so I could buy one more share of Trade Desk (TTD). That brings me to ... 2 shares! But hey, gotta start the non-leveraged growth portion of the ROTH somehow, right? In the meantime, I don't want to break up the band (NAIL, RETL) who are carrying me today.

So much for the great NASDAQ crash of 2021.

I'm still waiting for Divmenow to throw up the buy signal.    

Looks like a nice day so far.

Hard to find good buy today; I added a little MRK and AMGN.

Also initiated a small position in ABNB. My pick on speculative stocks has been terrible this year. Other than TSLA & CHWY that I bought earlier, most of my picks are showing great (some are 50%) losses. I guess I should stop following Cathie Wood sooner.
