No FOMO for you? I still can't figure out what the hell the market is doing. The Feds don't have that much money to cause the last 2 days. Futures are all green again. Nikki is up. I've never seen the market this divorced from reality. I like it. lol

 

I saw a volleyball game in the park on the way home from work..nobody called the police...I'm guessing it's "back to normalism"...we'll see where that gets us in about a month. The one thing that bugs me is "Cases are up.." well, how about "because testing is waaay up"...I want to know % hospitalization of cases. If that number remains level we're all good.

 

Even if you think we are on the way up, as most seem to think, there has to be a day or 2 dip to pick some of this stuff up. But I’ve been waiting to grab things and sometimes it feels like it’s passed me by. Still thinking there will be opportunities. Everyone talking about nail going to 50 or 90 should be buying it like crazy if they believe it, because that’s still a massive return from where we are now. And that goes for many stocks.

 

I traveled, visited friends and went boating this last weekend.

 

The opportunity to buy the “market” came and went, admittedly faster than even someone bullish like me could have imagined.

There is plenty of opportunity in individual stocks, like banks, REITs, hotels, casinos, cruise lines, air lines, probably many more. The market came back but so many categories didn’t. They have to catch up eventually.

 

Honestly right now stocks still on sale but it won't be like this forever. There might be a dip. I'm saying Friday. Fridays gotta be a sell day. But after that we should be all right overall.

I don't have a boat but yeah. Went to see family the next state over had some friends over did barbecue rode bikes etc. All without being arrested.

Maine is the last frontier.

 

I think the lowest has passed. But we're still well in a low. Honestly VTI is still a smart buy. I mean to be fair it never isn't a smart buy but still you get what I'm trying to say. Hopefully.

 

Yea it’s always good. But not like it was 25% ago. But good for a buy and hold and add forever.

 

My account this year lol

 

I don't either and we traveled to TN to stay with them.

 

Even people who bought HTZ post bankruptcy...It closed at $0.55 yesterday and today closed at 1.3100 (+0.7550) (+136.04%) someone with the balls to buy $1000 yesterday sold for $2,381.58‬ today...

 

I bought 1000$ ford.today 6 bucks seems cheap

 

If you have a lot of balls and discipline, close your eyes on that for 5 years, it might be a whole lot more. Or gone, that’s the balls part I guess.

 

I laughed when I saw the daily gain %. That would have been a killer day trade. Too bad I was at work. lol

 

I think DKNG is going to be huge in the near future.

I hope so, but I know some states have decided to keep them out until local casinos can establish sports books and apps. But certainly plenty of market still untapped, and states certainly could use increased revenues, so the incentive to legalize things is there

 

Oh tell me more about this NRGU. I just dumped 1200.00 into my E*TRADE account.
