The above was posted on April 28th. I thought it would be interesting to see how things progressed a little over a month later.

WYNN -- Closing Price April 28th: $123.01 Closing Price Today: $133.59 Gain of $10.48 or 8.52% Gain

This will be about the fifth time I have posted stocks to buy over the course of the last few years and as you can see once again I have delivered for you. Did you make money? Or were you foolish to pull all of your $ out of the market?
It better be you made money because if you did what I said, you made a KILLING !!!! Smallest gain of 5.07% out of all listed, you certainly couldn't have gone wrong unless you didn't listen or pulled all of your $ out of the market......................
If you stuck with these since April 28th last year, you would have yourself a nice nest egg. Dividend reinvestment alone brought in a nice amount of profit.
Just as an FYI CACQ was turned into 1.6825 shares or something close to that amount into CZR stock. This trade alone is up over 50% since April 28th last year. Wynn is up to $165 from $123 a 33% lift not including dividends. DAL and AAL up at $60 u $15 and $18 each. The others are up as well and the one I said to stay clear of (T) down nearly $3 in what has been the bull of bull markets.
Tried and True still works, you just have to be patient.
Someone messaged me asking me what I thought would be a cheap stock they could get into that might have potential. Long long term and not something that will make you rich quick. There are hurdles and obstacles to overcome but if they can pull it off, the potential could be big. ERBB and yes you can buy a million shares for around $1,600. This is truly a spec and not a green light to go all in. Buy a million and sit on it. Forget about it.
Random thoughts:
A stock that has been hammered recently that has great value and was oversold - PLAY
Oil stocks may be in for a strong rally because they have learned how to downsize and cut expenses and will end up coming out smelling like a rose. - MRO
Almost forgot someone asked me what I thought about cryptocurrencies and what was a good one. -- Right now there is a mania to find the next bitcoin. There won't be a next bitcoin, there is only one bitcoin. Crypto animals and all this nonsense, people are being suckered in and will ultimately find these "fortunes" are worthless. Madoff strikes again and multiple times but under fake names or no names. If you must get involved, I am intrigued with Lite Coin. I know it's not sexy like Bitcoin but you can buy a lot more of it and can build a nice solid position in it. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon.
In closing come Tuesday the market could have a melt down, cryptocurrencies can crash to nothing and you still can't time anything, you can only hope to get in or out before the next big move happens and you don't know it until it happens. There is no get rich quick schemes. PT Barnum proved that over and over and would still be doing it today if alive. Don't be the sucker, be the one being sucked.
Good luck.
