This is not one of my picks, and i only like airlines for their credit arm, but Copa Holdings SA $ 53.41 has some good fundamentals, The net current asset value is a little low for my liking, but its the only play i see right now in the airline space,

Mr, CADILLACJACK

I don't hold anything , I buy and sell as fast as I can, Id rather make 75% less profit and not create liquidity in a market and always have big cash reserves. If i cant sell a stock, I buy and sell more of it as a very low profit to create more volume. I'm always waiting for a dip in price before a stocks Ex date. Today I bought and sold MSFT, RSG, CPA, AQN and LK.

Funny you say that I just had a conversation with my father recently about stocks he's been in it for YEARS....he said the same exact thing....he said the market now at the moment is not to hold onto stocks long he buys and sells quick also. He suggested the same to me

Just be careful..Smartmo has been at it a long long long time..like your dad but longer, way longer like your grand father might have been ..if he's still alive.
Joking.. I have no idea how old smartmo is but you can lose your wallet quickly flipping stocks without knowledge, experience and timing. I hold something I like long.. hold and wait.
I'm boring and possibly stupid given the market now.

Good luck

I have been buying stock since 1984, when i used IBD ratings .. what a distaster , I started day trading in 1992 on TradePlus that became Etrade, buying lots the day "after" the IPO , I am 50 now, i have bough and sold well over a half a billion dollars of stock.

yeah..I'm in the same boat..got my ass kick on the dot com..took 10,000 and turned it into 500K then lost about half of it.. then lost half of that half.

I got out with around 150K holding my ass in my hands.

Lesson learned..this market is different. Obviously the Fed will prop up the market as long as possible.
Key word "propped" up. Not to say you can't make serious money..but it is treacherous the way things look.

Read the mad hedge today I posted..he's thrown in now as well

Sold ALK a few days ago.
If it bottoms out again..I'll jump back in.
Bought @ 27 sold it in the mid 30's but I blew it as it hit 50 at one point.
it's an easy money maker in a improving travel environment .. I'm not liking the new C19 threat and some cities talking about travel bans.

I'll be back on this one.




Seems as if multiple companies are making progress on a vaccine.
I'm starting to think about making a smallish vaccine play in a solid company in an industry that right now looks hopeless.

I'm interested in knowing what your top "Vaccine Play" would be.

I like Alaska airlines as my "Vaccine play" forgive the pun but I'd almost take a "Flier" on this one.
IMO they are one of the best companies flying today.. with a vaccine this would double quickly from where it is today..
Trading @ $25 this AM

I’m in the same boat with ALK, I’ll be looking to get back in when it bottoms out again as well...

I’ll probably take the earnings this time and book an Alaskan fishing trip as it’s a bucket list item anywho...
