Looking long term, I bought a little patch of good farm land. The Lord ain't gonna make no more dirt, and corn and wheat are a lot tastier than oil, computing services, or cars.

Already avoided about $1800 down in the past hour, and bought in the mid 250s. Blind squirrel found a nut.

I plan to buy more VUG very soon, gonna wait a few days. I really like VUG but timing is important. It;s heavy into Microsoft and apple, hard to go wrong there.

Buy on the dip. I have about 700 shares of VUG now and will prolly increase that 4x by Thursday to catch the Friday bump. Depends on how far it drops today and tomorrow.

I've been doing lots of ETF stuff, mostly large-cap growth and have done well. Almost too good lately.
I don't have the goanies to be playing individual stocks right now except for a couple of oil stocks that have done very well, like 50% up well. Risky but paid off. Mentioned them a few weeks ago in a whole nuther thread.
It's easy when it's easy.

I think we're due for a correction this week but long-term I'd be a fool to watch the stair-climb over the next 12 months from the sidelines.

And that's worth every penny you paid for it
Just had order filled for 1800 shares VUG @ 178.21
rolled the dice.


Sold SPY @292.5, its at 278.65 now.

VUG was at 186.5, now it's 178.
Doesn't matter if it keeps going down but I'm betting it won't.

It is a lot more difficult since a certain poster quit giving stock advice here. He was the perfect contrarian indicator. Take the exact opposite position and score every time.

I've been out of equities for the most part except for one single stock for some time now...but it wasn't chump change (for me anyways)....it's skyrocketed since I sold....but I'd still be down bigly wiggly....

My tip of the day: Don't trade yer Apples for Canadian Pot ....

I just threw a random dart with my pick...a pure WAG gamble....and I lost.

Boohoohoo .

I don't keep up with this stuff anymore....gone fishin'

I do accept commisions for moving the market though

Easy stuff is easy when it's easy.
But when it gets hard it isn't easy anymore.

Deep thought of the day
