Not holding anything after the close. Weekends are too risky for bad news and no good news comes out over weekend. I’d rather miss an up swing than get stuck holding something if the market is down.


I get it.

I'm looking year end to a year out so I don't mind holding.

You're probably correct but by the way the market is behaving right now it would not totally shock me if the stock averages close up for the day.



it tried

ETA: Damn, that took a sharp turn south in the last 30

Yep, the DJ30 climbed all the way back to where it was "only" down -278 before the selling started.

I'm thinking we'll see a drop at the end of today for fear of bad weekend news, but I'm still holding.



Good call. Was thinking we could end up flat for the day but algos kicked in last 30 minutes.

i pulled my investments after the jump this week and placed some 1-2 month puts... Already up 20%. Already sold one position that was up 100%. I might get a bit more aggressive with the rest.

It's like that sometimes man. I bought additional shares yesterday thinking it wouldn't dip much today. Had I waited till this morning to execute the transaction I would've earned another 3$ a share when I sold.

Sold some shares to get some more cash on hand in my Roth to prepare to add to my UDOW position. Got it at 33.50 when the price was low. Want to add to it to take advantage of the eventual rise.

Sold the stock I had the most invested in . Made a small profit wanted to free up some cash because I feel we are headed down. Will be more bargains soon on good companies

Agreed. I sold some things and reloaded my accounts with cash.

I think we’re in for another dip and I’m not upset about buying on the ramp up.

We’re not in full recovery until people are going back to work.

I think I'm just going to hold everything since I bought in at around 19,000. If it goes lower I'll just buy more
