    Hey y'all I'm out of the Jumia bidness as of yesterday. The gub'ment baller can have it all for now.

    I waited long enough for it to come back to where it would cover my transaction fees (Matter of principle) and gtfo. I'll be back when it returns to $1 or so. :D

    Went into PMs hard August and September. Still riding that train. Have friends doing better playing lottery with crypto or VIX but my goto is gonna be PMs just before elections and as soon as I here a real catastrophic event. Growth between.

    meh...penny stocks be doing penny stock shit

    haven't been buying much lately, but couldn't resist more GOOGL at $149 a few days ago. Total no brainer at that price.

    Could be. I'm betting on a lot more pain across the board, though.

    I caught a ban for going into what I thought were non-political details a while back, so I will just be general with a few key words: reverse repo/ bank reserves ratio, qualitative easing, earnings disappointments.

    Let's revisit right around this point in the next earnings season and see.

    I hope I'm wrong.

    Edit : don't forget about gold getting marked to market (or higher). There are good reasons to do this, but good reasons to wait, too. Some are rumbling about it happening on the 4th of July for the symbolism.

    BA turned about to be a great run for me.

    Meh, I only cared about losing money on it. There are a couple of things that jumped today that hurt my soul a lot more, as I was seriously contemplating buying them yesterday.

    Doesn't mean shit long term, but I had to chuckle when I saw damn near everything green except... PSLV. I'll give it a year before I pass real judgement.

    unrelated- sold most of my TSLA @$322. So expect an epic bull run...

    PLTR just keeps on proving that p/e's don't matter... just sold a bit more at $127 (cost basis on those was about $12). Will hold the last 50 shares for a while ($7 cost on those)

    Boeing decides to fly to the moon. Maybe the "gift plane" did the trick.

    Your time frames don't fit the thread title.

    You should put it all on black.

    Or JMIA.

    they landed on that $200 moon 4 years ago... maybe try for another planet?

    I wouldn't call a year "day trading". What exactly is a reasonable time frame for PSLV to outperform the market in your view? If the goal is just keeping up with inflation or putting $$ in a "safe" place, that's a rich guy level way above where I'll ever be. I'd bet on the Mag7 (or hell- the S&P index) against metals at 1,5,10, or 20 years if the goal is to actually grow your $$.
