Between the earnings miss and short report I haven’t seen it this low in a while. So I said why not lol. You in on this one too Fenders ?I haven't researched it. Hadn't heard of it until you and Otter were discussing it last week. I am trying to not add too many more new names. We'll see how long that lasts.
What I need is for tech to get hammered for real again, but this market is resilient.
Very small trades this morning. Added a few shares to DG-ARKF Sold a few SLV puts.

What ever floats your boatI 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.lol
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 think TTD is my biggest stock holding for instance.Wait for a dip and start nibbling. After Christmas is when the toy stocks pullback so don't enter on the annual peak.

Back to Hasbro, much more than just a toy company.
- Yes, Magic the Gathering & Pokemon are big money makers and will always be
- The board game hobby is growing, and they have some star titles like Betrayal at House on the Hill and the whole Axis & Allies line
- D&D 5th edition is selling like hot cakes.
- Nerf as mentioned has been very big for them
I don't own any right now, but next year when new money arrives I hope to.It will go flat a few times per year in a good year, like early summertime. It doesn't have to be the perfect stock ever, but I can't think of a better stock for YOU. A CNBC headline headline isn't gong to make you nervous about their mid-long-term plans. Kind of like my VSTO. I target shoot and I love my Davy Crockett black powder toys. I know reality and some dude in a suit on TV won't scare me out when I know their books and they can't keep the shelves half full for over a year now. It really is the same thing. Invest some of your money in what you truly know. Hold and worry about your other holdings.
Totally agreed. So I've decided my next crop of acquisitions are all companies I use every day.Panera is no longer public. I have Starbucks. I can't think of any other restaurants I regularly go to that are public. Target & Home Depot are already in the fold too. I'm sure other companies that I use often are out there but this is all that comes to mind for now.
- Apple - my computer, my phone, my tablet, iTunes, etc.
- Disney - Marvel, Star Wars, and maybe I'll even return to the theme park, plus the cruise lines are great. Been really enjoying Disney Plus streaming service
- Microsoft - Powers my work laptop
- Amazon - where I shop the most; covers Whole Foods as well, and I've been using the streaming service
- Facebook - browse it often
- Exxon-Mobil - where I get my gas. I really do think they locate their stations in the most ideal spots compared to others
- Hasbro - D&D, Axis & Allies, board games, etc.
- Verizon - both my cable and my phone
- CVS - I shop there almost every day. I prefer it to Walgreens
- Capital One Financial - my bank
- Mastercard - one of my 2 cards. Discover isn't public. I dropped my Visa card when they couldn't handle fraud properly
- Morgan Stanley - home of my company stock, and they bought E*Trade. Supposedly my accounts will merge next year.
- Cisco - all the VPN and meeting software we use at work
- General Mills - Cheerios!
- Proctor & Gamble - Head & Shoulders, probably lots of other things I take for granted.
- Netflix - still the best streaming service
Once I've got all these up at $5000+, I can explore other stocks like CP, possibly the controversial LYB, CMI, MGA, etc.
DFS - Has had a hell of run. No longer a buying opportunity lol Ones you left out below
What no HSY - You don't eat chocolate lol
MKC - No spices with your cooking?
MCD - Dont tell me your health conscious (My kids eat here 3 times a week with happy meals)
DLTR - Who doesn't shop ay Dollar Tree
COST - I got there weekly
PINS - I'm on every day sharing and looking at recipes
TWTR - I'm addicted every day use
CLX - Products used daily
Just a few off the top of my head left out
