    Actually out of curiosity how does fractional shares work with voting? I think BRK.A gives voting rights. So would that just be the share holder (TD for example) gets the rights, and I as the share “owner” just get paid from TD? I should research how fractional shares work before asking dumb questions I guess.

    fair enough. What about exporting it via csv and using that as a data table? That’s my plan - but I’m also not interested in fractional shares either. My monopoly account is for fun, it’s more “fun” to dig into 30 shares and “play” with the cheap stuff. The serious accounts, I focus on etfs which are more approachable, when SPHD or DIV for example is 30 and 17 bucks a share, there’s no real incentive to go fractional at that point. Especially since there’s probably some weird implications that affect 0.01% of fractional share owners, but I’d want to know them before going in.

    I just checked, my girlfriend has an account with my broker. She has SPHD on DRIP so she gets partial shares (although we still can’t buy them). Hers is rounded to 4 decimal places, so it’s pretty annoying.

    Not really. Thinking maybe this week since it’s one of the highest. But also may wait until I dump everything before the election. If the market gets a whiff of a certain someone winning, I don’t think the markets will like it

    Lotsa snake oil in this game in general. Lately i keep getting these ads about guys pedaling their scheme of how they made a couple g's into a couple commas and can teach you. Like shit mannn if they really did that so easy they'd be spending a months vacation on an island every month instead of teaching random scrubs over the internet lmao

    that’s the train of thought I tell people.

    put yourself in their shoes. You have a sure fire way to make thousands a month if not more. Confident enough to publish it, yeah? Why do you need to sell books, or YouTube subscriptions, to make a few bucks? If they’re so successful, they don’t need to sell their method.

    I have 27 holdings. I’d rather plug in:

    12
    50
    26
    ...

    Than..

    12.7362
    50.8373
    26.8362

    Which would change every time I made a purchase, which is usually a few times a week.

    Hard pass on partial shares for me.

    On the other hand.... You could balance your allocation percentages perfectly (no decimals)

    Is that ATH going to be tough to break through? The technical analysis people might know how that works.

    That's like the old school stock predictor grift..
    SNAIL mail 1200 people a newsletter with a 600 predict a stock will go up...600 say down...
    2nd mailing take the 600 that were right and split it 300 and 300...
    3rd mailing take the 300 that were right and split it 150 150
    4th mailing split 75 and 75...
    Now you have 75 people who have seen you make 4 straight perfect stock picks...You hit them up for $$ for you to reveal your can't miss 5th pick...And then you split it 1/2 and 1/2 and keep doing this until you have milked down to the last 5 or so people and you run..
    Old school grift...
