Same here. We may get another chance, we may not. I selfishly hope we drop another 10%, rip the bandaid off and then start the recovery.

This came across my news feed and I kind of scanned over it. I suppose if it's organized and they're knowingly committing a crime you could call it a stock market mafia. Some of them seem more like "Lefty" two-bit hustler than they do Corleone. Don't really know enough about where the line of legality is either.Sand said:

Not a ton of money. I only would have bought like 10 grand worth if all my buy limits hit, and that would have had me like 60% deployed. The bulk of my investing is index funds in my 403b.
I am.pretty close to just buying index funds in my roth and never looking at anything ever again
I got 20 years till retirement, so long term I guess

This was what I was wondering, not how much actual $ amount, and going long.
I do a lot of smaller buys. I pretty much have all my stocks/ETFs set for what I want to be in so I'm usually adding and trimming through the waves. I did just start a new position in $WANT. I saw it around 45, I liked that range so I bought. Not much. 25% position to get started. Now it's in the 50's and I'm not adding more here so I'll wait. Had it dropped to 42's I would have added more. Maybe not 25% stake, but another 10%. 40's, add another 10-15%.

I have 0 individual holdings in TSLA and AMZN (or any of the others top holdings) so that was one of the reasons why it caught my attention.

Thanks for the FLGT stock tip. It was a bumpy ride, but I exited my position with a gain in just two days. Good luck to everyone who continues to hold it.

I could quadruple down on either BLDP or STMH for the same money. Or, for the rest of my cash, I could do the same with QS.
Of course, I could buy a handful of JNJ and wait for the breakup to capture the big return, but I feel like that violates the spirit of this thread. Perhaps I'll circle back to SBLK....

I am still waiting on funds to clear in order to buy so I am certainly not having a good time. Killing me seeing these two big Green Days.

I generally don't think so but I personally am. Great buying opportunities.

Anyhow, let's repeat today every day next week.

How in the name of all that is good did the market go nuts yesterday? Other than US GDP and the country opening up, what potential good news is there in the near future.

One theory is shorts covering driving the rally . It can happen with a gap down https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/put-sellers-incredible-feb-24th-intraday-reversal.
I unfortunately didn’t get any money in, waiting for things to go lower. The market can do anything, but I’m thinking (hoping) we see some more downside in the coming weeks as another opportunity.
As always I’d love @Todemopinion on if he thinks that was the bottom or not.

Interesting. I'm not rooting for the market to go down but it just seems odd to me that there are virtually no positive short term indicators. The fed really needs to increase rates to get inflation under control and give folks other options to park their money. We need to get back to normalcy.

I've been thinking more along the lines of the Ukrainian resistance, the possibility of talks, the unity of the West against Putin as all being drivers of more moves in the green.

Y’all making any plays or do we sit back and watch for awhile?
I bought a bit on Thursday, may hold off.

Since 1997 it's more or less lost it's entire value, but the drop since 2015 and now this is, steep
And now it looks like they are only down about 2%. At this rate, we'll close green on Monday, gotta be at least +2%. I love extrapolation.

I think I'm just going to put in some stupid low limit orders again and see if my phone vibrates while I'm at work.

Futures not looking good I sold some positions in the green on Friday, and added more to TIPS, oil looks like it will spike as well. Feels like the stock market is a roller coaster. Putin threatening nukes has the market spooked.

We've seen his tank alpha team stop for gas and get arrested by the local constable. I would bet his nukes have rusted out 20 years ago.

Schwab. It’s getting the money and then getting it to Schwab. It was an inheritance where the company sending the money was a major pain.
Ironically if we got it a month ago like we should have we’d probably be down 25% so hey sometimes it works out.

I'm pretty sure you know this, but this time of year you can fund two years worth of 401ks for both you and your wife

If you didn't contribute in full last year, you can still do it now. You can also contribute for this year.

I've done this before when I had a thin $$ year and did not max out, but got a windfall in March so I did what I'm talking about.

Futures haven't been the best indicators lately. However, because of the huge run late last week I'm expecting this downturn to hold. Haven't done any buying yet. Down around 3% now. May sit today out unless I got something that goes down 10%+

This just in, Lordstown Motors won't sell trucks to Russia....
or pretty much anyone,
Lordstown Motors CEO Dan Ninivaggi said the company will initially only sell vehicles to a small amount of pre-selected businesses. Embattled electric vehicle start-up Lordstown Motors expects to produce and sell up to only 3,000 vehicles through next year, the company announced Monday.
