Covid Stock Purchase Thread
 

I’m a real estate investor, not an huge stock fan, but I do own some.
I haven’t bought a stock in probably 5 years, the last was Apple.
That was documented in the multi year Apple thread here, which has been fun.
Anyways, I’m buying now.


I bought yesterday:

Home Depot $158
Coca Cola $38

Anyone else?

Swanson's unsalted chicken stock....mebbe $3???

Loaded up with two of 'em!

low cost index funds. At this time with the market the way it is, you'd probably have to try hard to make a bad choice.

Who makes vibrators?

Hopefully.
Like with real estate I only buy, never sell.

Is it time already? I predict we will go to <15k on the Dow.

If you do have money to invest it may be good to slowly start feeding it in for cost averaging.

I stayed put - no individual stocks outside of my retirement accounts. Have a youngster that is getting started and held it in cash for now. Smart move!

G

Yes, I’ll ladder down.

I blew my AAPL $ on pot....literally... ACB. Might get back in with index/etf. I'll let it bottom...

My individual bonds are getting hammered too :(

Haha, pot stocks.
Were all the Bitcoins sold out? :)

lol...

I agree it is to early. <15k, as good a number as any.

Be interesting when the employment numbers, gpd, cpi start coming out. Or any of our leaders (Trump and his team, Cuomo, Newsom, etc) get the virus and die.

But hey, my yacht is a 14 ff aluminum fishing boat, that I have to borrow from my brother.

BRK and O

Too early for me, I'll give up the first 15% ^ to be safe.

I also bought BRK.B

Fedex

Banks.

And of course.....disney.

Bought GE yesterday at 6.10.

Hopefully prices drop a little tomorrow on some profit taking.
I think I’ll do some Disney and Boeing and then sit for a while.

What trading service do you guys use?

I bought a decent chunk of the fund I have our IRA'a in on Friday, which is only available to investors that already own it - no institutional investors. I'll hang onto it long term and expect it to probably go up & down in the interim but make good advances when things settle down.

Schwab

When I buy, I just do it through the Vanguard site, but that's for funds.
