these elections have all been sold as "referendums on trump" and the dems have lost them all

Two full years that's really interesting. What year did you buy in/what year did you sell? I'm really curious.

I literally just bought into it end of April. I've had it on a Watchlist for about 9 months though. It got hammered from a quarterly earnings report and so I swooped in.


Averaged around in it from feb 2014 to October 2014

Rode it all the way down in 2015

Got out in feb 2016 after it recovered

Cars 3 comes out next month and Mattel has a huge amount of sales hinging on that Pixar merchandise selling well. Also I guess they got a new CEO February some nice lady from Google.

I would've done the same if I were you. I looked at the charts and the numbers when I put in and I figured "It literally can't get any worse and the Dividend is as good as some stock 5x as pricey..."

It's good you got out in 2016 when it was still atleast in the $30's. It's nearly in the Teens here recently.

Good luck with the position, friend. Hope it works out for you. However, this is now multiple years of the company not turning it around. Core brands continue to decline/stagnate. The dividend could be at risk.

turns out the president being unstable is bad for the market

It's still higher than it was before the election

Turns out the market hates the uncertainty of not knowing who will be President and making policy the next 4 years. It's as if it would've risen either way.

Also: I'm down $112...Mattel's Dividend day was today so it only dropped a few cents...

Ugh, MAT

Owned that thing for 2 years thinking I would collect the fat div while management turned things around

Finally gave up on it and got out with a measly 3% gain
