    I’m getting over that in my money market with (I think) a $500 minimum.

    Well, my Apple prediction is not favorable. I think their latest product (digital glasses thing) will flop, and there is nothing breathtaking in the company's pipeline. They are losing their past magic, yet they still have tremendous momentum and cash to be a top tech contender. Just don't expect the same growth they have done in the past.

    That cash is rapidly losing purchasing power through inflation. May I suggest an acquisition spree? Some are suggesting DIS, but may I suggest starting with WBD?

    Please.

    Maybe get in a bidding war with AMZN and GOOG for it! That would be great.

    Finally got off my ass and made the call to my financial advisor I've been with for 29 years...I'm taking over my IRA management. Wasn't real keen on his strategy the last few years and the 1.5% or so fees hurt when the bottom line isn't growing. I probably won't make any huge changes to the mix...or will I go full YOLO???

    There I added WBD ... :D

    Already have DIS, AMZN and GOOG, so why not.

    Disney! I vote Disney! By all you can. Tell your friends. :D

    Wrapped up in nice one-month trade this week with APLS. 30% in about 30 days. I like when things go right once in a while.

    You got some?

    I've thought about holding my nose and buying a little bit. Just can't bring myself to do it even if it might be a moneymaker in the medium term. :Puke:

    Yeah, I don't have your issues. I've been owning it. :D I am down about 10%. I'm thinking about adding more but that would take me well above how much I really want to own.

    I shrewdly bought DIS in March 2020... it's -1% since. At least the dividends have made...oh yeah, those stopped about the same time.

    Buy the big 3 autos...they're all down about 10%+

    The UAW strike is 2 weeks away so be ready to hold for a bit

    I'd stay away from stellantis, election year is coming up and the UAW victims are a amazing way to buy votes

    Pretty much how I invest. Buy high, sell low. Always worked for me.
