Buying solid chunks of all of these at various points over the last 5-7 trading days - ALB, OXY, WMT, SOFI, and NKE.

Watch list - RIO, MTDR, and COST. Waiting on these to drop a little further before I jump in.

Everything about that company is worse than it was 10 years ago and that’s coming from someone who had companion status with them for a decade and used to defend them.

Now they’re priced like Delta while running their business like Frontier or Spirit.

Are you me? I couldn't have said this better myself. I had companion pass for 5 straight years 2013 - 2018. I flew from Houston to Dallas and El Paso 35+ times per year and it made so much sense at the time.

Now, I won't even consider Southwest unless they are $100 cheaper than United.

Hurricane season brings a triple threat you may not have to deal with as much in November - April: hurricanes and tropical storms, more rain in general, and it’s also a good bit hotter (and more humid).

Costs Rica certainly gets storms. I’d go further south. In Aug - Oct I would lean toward ABC islands or Barbados. Maybe Panama. Northern coast of Colombia is amazing too, think Cartagena or Barranquilla.

I lived on St Croix one year and it was crazy to see the off season (which is basically June - mid November. Covid kinda changed that and people have been going nonstop all year around the past 2-3 years.


Booking a week long trip to Grand Cayman late June 2017 and getting hit by a tropical storm that brought rain almost all day for 4 of our 6 days there was honestly pretty aggravating with all the money spent.

Bought 100 shares at $9.34 on Friday to keep me interested. Let’s see where this thing goes!

I usually don’t buy without a good bit of DD. I’ll post some more info when I get time over the coming weeks to dig into this one.

Second weekend of march where would people here go- WA (Crystal, Snoqualmie, Alpental), Montana (Big Sky), or UT (Brighton, Solitude, Alta, and Snowbird)?

In the L48, aside from the PNW, Big Sky is the only major resort / mountain I haven’t made it to yet. That would be my choice of what you listed.

I haven’t corroborated this with any data but I heard from a buddy that lives in SLC that they weren’t getting the best snow this year. I think they’ve had a couple near record years in a row so maybe they got spoiled. Not sure.
