Zachnorn 07/15/21 2:50:12 PM #282 | I was told to drop about 50k into stocks all at once and decided to just drop in about 5k instead. I'm so glad I hesitated. I've lost about $500 this week (on about 20k of investments) which is bad, but not horrible I guess. I'm thinking I just continue dollar cost averaging for now into ETFs. I've been burned on gambling on RCON, SOFI, and GME, so I might take a break from stock picking and just toss money into my M1 pies that mostly have ETFs based on indexes. --- <D |

Zachnorn 07/14/21 1:02:22 PM #273 | Forceful_Dragon posted... @Zachnorn does he have the same number of tokens as he did before the switch from V1 to V2? A quick googling appears that Aerdrop recently had an upgrade, but that during the changeover they essentially did a reverse split of sorts so each individual token is worth significantly more than before, but everyone has less tokens in their wallet after the change to V2.Not sure. But he did tell me he made several grand from it. --- <D |

Zachnorn 07/09/21 1:34:55 PM #248 | Been thinking about Tastyworks myself. I love thinkorswim and from what I understand, the people behind Tastyworks sold thinkorswim to TD Ameritrade before they created Tastyworks. I feel too lazy to switch though, especially since I don't currently trade options. --- <D |

Zachnorn 07/07/21 2:40:33 PM #230 | I took the opportunity to buy more SOFI at $17. I've lost money so far, but I believe in the stock since it seems like some early investors or executives were able to sell it and probably decided to just to avoid having their net worth mostly in one company. I think it will take several weeks and possibly a few months, but I'll see gains on it. --- <D |

Topic | How long do you usually keep cars for? |
Zachnorn 07/02/21 3:40:17 PM #26 | Until it has a major failure or accident that is too expensive to be fixed. Though my strategy is to buy a new car once my car hits 150-200k miles to prepare for such a failure and have two cars for a bit. This worked when my old car got totaled in an accident. EDIT: So far, my current car only has 71k miles on it. I've had it for 6.5 years. I've barely driven it since the pandemic started since I work from home though. Normally, I'd have 80 or 90k on it by now. --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/18/21 10:17:23 AM #474 | What makes you say that? Isn't the economy supposed to be booming? The stock market isn't the economy. The stock market has been known to drop after good unemployment numbers come out because more employed people increases inflation. From what I'm seeing, the market is reacting to increasing inflation and potential interest rate increases, which occur when the economy is improving. --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/17/21 1:14:33 PM #464 | I don't think they can close the markets that quickly. It's my understanding that the NYSE sets the holidays pretty far in advance. They have holidays announced through 2023. https://www.nyse.com/markets/hours-calendars --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/17/21 10:18:19 AM #456 | Shorting is definitely not a game I'd want to play. Especially with the anti-shorting sentiment. I can see why the likes of AMC and GME were shorted heavily and why it was seen as such a sure thing; that is, until WSB changed things. --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/16/21 8:16:32 PM #453 | red sox 777 posted... Shorts tend to lose money on average, but the thing about levered ETFs like SQQQ is that there's an additional problem generated by the goal of matching daily percentage returns and the mathematics of multiplying percentages. Like, if QQQ drops 10% today and rises 10% tomorrow, it doesn't get back to even - it'll still be down 1%. But, SQQQ would have fallen 30% the first day and risen 30% the second day - and it's still down 9%. Much worse than the 3% you'd expect! Over time, these losses are brutal.Makes sense. But again for SQQQ specifically, isn't the best strategy for using it, if you're really confident that QQQ will fall, is to buy it early (in the premarket, let's say) and then sell it a few hours later? At least, I wouldn't hold SQQQ past a market close, personally. --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/16/21 6:11:39 PM #447 | I don't play with the stock market more than "buy stocks/ETFs low, sell them high, get dividends along the way" but isn't that just how shorting is? You buy SQQQ as a way to short QQQ using an ETF and since stocks go up more than down, you're more likely to lose money with SQQQ just as you would if you shorted QQQ yourself. --- <D |

Zachnorn 06/16/21 3:35:59 PM #444 | red sox 777 posted... Just look at the long term chart for SQQQ. This is one of the worst investments ever dreamed up.It's not meant to be an investment, from what I understand. It's meant for short term profits for traders. --- <D |
