Good question. It is hard to be a long term holder of anything but quality names like ERI will comeback . The problem with the gambling group right now is the debt the carry with rates rising. Eri was able to refi into mostly fixed rates ,and I believe Nevada growth will be very strong regardless . Vegas properties may be much more susceptible to a slowdown

Got stopped out on some in my margin acct to protect the acct. Also hedged with ETFs like FAZ, and TZA, and in retirement accts, and sold some calls against my position

Watching close

Like many, lots a of technical damage has been done , but earnings and conference call next week I believe

Yeah, I dunno as much about the company as you do but a casino company that is largely tied to a region that grew in the last 10 years seems like ground zero for a bubble stock if the market were to go down.

Down 7.5% today and 50 to 33 in a matter of weeks.

GL tho, was a great call from the jump.

``look how far the price is from its 20 SMA; acts like a rubber band. In addition as you noted its stupid oversold, below 20. Thursday`s candle was a bullish hurami. Friday a doji, . Doji`s at a bottom or top can often act as pivot points. A GENERAL rule for a doji in such a spot is ; the price will move in the direction it opens``



........

pretty cool, she followed probability :)


the market rallied again, strong breadth as internationals, emerging markets, and US markets all a Sea of Green

BIG day tomorrow......aapl after the close

aapl

3 month daily

big.chart



still comfortably in front of its 200 MA (unlike the qqq). We saw a violent near 10% drops in goog and amzn a week ago after earnings, sent the qqq into free fall. If the market doesnt like what appl has to say the gap at 192 may act like a magnet, and the 200 SMA will be a support test. If appl comes through, the qqq`s should reclaim its 200 sma

will be interesting to see aapl`s candlestick tomorrow, they report after the close


fun fact;

since 1945 in the mid-election years: AFTER the elections (Nov 7th, i believe) the spy over the next 12 months has always been positive. 18 for 18 , perfecto . With AN AVERAGE return of 16.6% (worst yr +3 %)

going to be fun, Recon

with the US running an absurd deficit given its `booming economic times`, this is called throwing in the towel;

another reminder of the dangers in buying individual stocks as a long term investment, rather than say ALL the top 500 US companies; the SPY . Instant diversification. ( Or if one is more apt, the whole wolrd ,ACWI...or a sector etf, etc etc)

'obviously $12 ish is a BIG BIG level, she's at $12.77.........'

a HUGE HUGE level was breached today on USO,.......triggering stops from Provo, Utah to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (see charts above). Bearing engulfing pattern two days on highER volume, and today's blow off. WAY WAY WAY stretched from 20 sma, not stable



the markets are back to normal, took us some time but here we are-- The Central Bankers Rule The World. Powell remained hawkish last week and the markets rolled over like a cheap suit. I think CPI tomorrow? ,could impact direction short term

Please continue, Ricboff.

Never heard the OP complain. Some people can stand being wrong. It's one of the important learning ladders in life.

This thread has to haunt the OP. So brutal to keep bumping it

Listen to Dexter....LMAO

Knocking a thread that has at least 30 posters participating in it.

I would say a thread like this has 100% more value over a fantasy land thread where 1 poster is talking to himself.

You can book that cheersgif

I did something similar a short time ago. Not all but a significant portion. I just think stocks in general are over priced. The best time to buy stocks are always when there is blood on the streets. You cant do that when you are fully invested. All you can do is change what you own.

I have a good portion in mutual funds only because that is my only 401k option. I have for the most part kept those in the market because I am dollar cost averaging those by adding each month.

The portion I pulled out about a month ago went mostly to a cash position with some in gold. I really hate gold but it is where money flees for safety. I also hate bonds.....just not a fan. Rates are so low I don't see a big upside in bonds.

For the record....last time I did this there was a signifcant market correction and I was happy to be sitting on the sidelines. The hard part is to know when to jump back in. I agree with whoever else said that.

Last year my self directed portfolio showed a 52% return. So even if i sit for 12 months it will still be a decent 24 month return.

Burning some time today. I looked at what pulling out of the market did. If I held the exact same mutual funds I would have lost 11%. Instead going to a very conservative mutual fund it was up 1.64%.

I still think that the market has some more room for correction downwards.

Reasons I think: interest rates have been going up is one of the bigger reasons, I still think the amount that the market went up for the 10 plus years of a bull market was significant and probably too much, the initial bump to the market from tax cuts will become old news and not drive the market up and current dysfunctional government will start to become a negative drain on the economy.....like the last government shut down and whatever the negative effect was on the economy.
