How long do you think gas stays this cheap? If it's the new normal, ok.Cheap gas has killed my Tesla motivation.
WOW!True story with Hertz:
Renting a cargo van to go back to NYC and get our stuff. Rented it from Palm Beach to drive to NYC and drive back with some of our things. Renting a van in NYC is insanely expensive (if you can find one) bc everyone has been renting them and not returning them, so the smart move was already to rent it down here. Mom/aunt staying here (Florida) to watch the kids.
I rented it the day after they filed bankruptcy so I have no clue what the costs are pre-bankruptcy. Everyone else was between $400-$600 plus anywhere from 30 cents to 70 cents a mile, Hertz was $235 all-in for a week.
That is one I am watching but not buying at this time.Some big dips in some stocks that have been running. TDOC was talked about in here. Still above the prices I should have bought at, but down about 25% from its peak. Lots of dips out there. Not sure where to go and if it’s a one day or multi-day thing.
I took TSLA profits at $820.Interesting. I wonder if Tesla is responding to the flood of cheap new and used cars hitting the markets from companies like Hertz having to re-structure and re-organize. I could see some of the other rental car chains having to unload some of their bloated inventories at well. It's clear that people love Tesla's-- but the motivation to buy one shrinks when you can get other decent vehicles for relatively dirt cheap. Maybe Elon realizes this and is lowering prices to shrink the gap between teh cost of his vehicles and what else is being offered out there.

Seems like this isn’t just a one day phenomenon so I’m going to wait a bit. Maybe we’ll have an end of the day purge too.That is one I am watching but not buying at this time.
Bag of cash depending on when you bought it. I wish I was able to travel back in time to October when I decided to buy ZM at $65 (a great buy) instead of TDOC at $65. I’d smack myself in the head and just say buy both moron.<-----TDOC bagholder AMA
but lets not sugar coat my stock trading prowess ...I took TSLA profits at $820.
Kernen is terrible and has been for years. I feel sorry for the people watching him instead of Bloomberg.Kernen is a giant d-bag and a giant Trump schill. For months now--anytime Sorkin interviews anybody or mentions any concern about the virus--Kernen would belittle him in a very rude and condescending manner. Sorkin would remain professional even through the bs that Kernen would throw at him. I'm glad that Sorkin spoke up--and I hope that interview gets more traction. Kernen was turning into a baby Trump where he basically tries to shut anybody or any idea up that doesn't support his narrative.
added a few hundred more shares at 2.85Nadar had a conference call and completely botched it again. #notselling
If you have dry powder, then now would be a good time to add IMO.
I'm in at much lower levels, but I don't even know if it's the "doc" I like best out of all of this. Think DOCU* sees additional wins from more remote work, and I was already a fan before this. Anytime a noun becomes a verb...<-----TDOC bagholder AMA
Could be worse, you could own a good amount of CYDY near it's high.JFC, getting my ### handed to me today.
Post it here next time so at least one of us can benefit gb.Made a note last night to buy some TAP this morning. Took the dog out for a walk and since I've gotten back just watching it run away from me.![]()
Dust up on CNBC this morning. Almost never watch these clowns but I would have tuned in this am if I'd have known this was going to happen.
Andrew Ross Sorken got owned this morning. Sad.Dust up on CNBC this morning. Almost never watch these clowns but I would have tuned in this am if I'd have known this was going to happen.
I like it. However, I bought at $23 a few weeks ago and sold at $26 so I am kicking myself for not holding. I will probably buy again on a dip though.Anybody want to talk me out of LUV? (Southwest Airlines)
- strong balance sheet
- less impacted by international travel restrictions
- good chance of gaining marketshare
- will pop with vaccine
- trading well below 52 week high (currently at 33 was at 58)

Someone posted this a month ago when the stock was trading at $29. Sounded good so I bought and it proceeded to drop to $23. All good now for me, but I would suggest nibbling in if you like it.Anybody want to talk me out of LUV? (Southwest Airlines)

I did buy more right about here, but got 10k of shares around $1, so I can hold our a little more.Could be worse, you could own a good amount of CYDY near it's high.
Hey, I resemble that remark. But don't look now. Tankers up ~10% over the past few days. I've probably had my expectations for tankers tempered. Probably not getting a double so in this market when everyone is hunting for those, may not be loved. But especially with the recent beating and 2Q record results, going to be getting a nice shareholder yield. I'll wait to get that back but still think there are 20-50% upside on these.Anything but tankers.
Even more tempting today with BUD and DFS up another 5 and 10 percent. Are you taking profits or sticking it out for more?I'm very tempted to sell.
BUD and DFS having a race today. Almost 8% each
I hate UAL...wouldn't mind them going BK to be honest.Someone posted this a month ago when the stock was trading at $29. Sounded good so I bought and it proceeded to drop to $23. All good now for me, but I would suggest nibbling in if you like it.
Things to consider
1) Southwest has more future fuel contracts than it's peers and it locked those if when fuel was significantly more expensive.
2) AAL and UAL are trading at 70% discounts, LUV is only 40%. The less impacted is already priced in and then some.
3) All airlines will pop with a vaccine.
4) I'm not sure how much profit there is in limited capacity flights.
Buy at $20, sell at $30. My current shares are free.I hate UAL...wouldn't mind them going BK to be honest.
I do like AAL though...I'll take a look there.
I posted around that time, wasn't the best timed purchase ever but is positive now...Someone posted this a month ago when the stock was trading at $29. Sounded good so I bought and it proceeded to drop to $23. All good now for me, but I would suggest nibbling in if you like it.

All good. It's worked out for the good, just not as good as your WFC.I posted around that time, wasn't the best timed purchase ever but is positive now...
lol ... don't need to tell anyone in here what side of that argument I'M on...Dust up on CNBC this morning. Almost never watch these clowns but I would have tuned in this am if I'd have known this was going to happen.
I'm not on your side, but I thought Kernan acquitted himself well at the end.lol ... don't need to tell anyone in here what side of that argument I'M on...
He got the last word in but Sorkin scored heavier blows IMO.I'm not on your side, but I thought Kernan acquitted himself well at the end.
Unless another black swan happens....the lows were put in on March 23rd. The easy money has been made.Experiencing some fomo right now with some cash on the sidelines. Is this train going to keep going and push through like nothing has happened. Just a small bump in the road.![]()
Where Sorkin failed is assuming Kernan doesn't care about deaths which is flawed logicHe got the last word in but Sorkin scored heavier blows IMO.
I'm super lazy here but could you repost your master list? I had it marked and lost it.Unless another black swan happens....the lows were put in on March 23rd. The easy money has been made.
With that being said.....we will have pull backs. No doubt. It is par for the course. If you have some cash, I would not be rushing into this rally. No reason too. We have a long way to go. And I have been around for a very long time to know at some point the fundamental will meet the road and we will see some bumps again and no question this is not a straight line up. There are well over 35MM american out of work right now.
Let that sink in for a moment.
This is a consumer based economy.
All the jobs are not coming back on the flip of a switch. We are going to have some serious mud to wade through her over the next 6 months. Buy the dips. That is all I will say. Have a list of stocks you really want to own for the long term and simply buy the dips.
March 16th-23rd was a once in 10 year chance to buy a fire sale. Literally a massive fire sale. If we see that again it will be because we are shutdown again (which IMO is simply not going to happen).
Demand is pent up but also know certain industries will take massive earnings hits over the next 6-12 months. And when those fundamentals come into play the stocks will price accordingly.
I am loaded up on the master list. I stick with those industries with clean balance sheets (save for BA right now but IMO they will roar back in due time), strong dividends and can’t live without type industries.
People are not going to be traveling nearly as much, discretionary spending will go down. At the same time I think residential real estate will remains stable and actually increase because in my mind we are no doubt going to have some real inflation in the next year......10 trillion has been thrown at this thing. 10!!!!! Let than sink in too.
The markets will be a wild ride for a few years......but having great/fundamentally sound yields in your portfolio get you through the tougher times.
So again.....buy the dips, don’t chase the market. Let it come to you.
