Down goes the Dow

I wonder how Swaglord is doing?

vix 32 today, which is about what it hit in the end of january selloff. which we've all forgotten already since feb was such a great month.

before that,. you go to October for a VIX 40.

was that as the new wave of covid got going? I don't remember.

So far, just a regular correction, except in meme stonks.

I bot some PTON. Spin spin spin!

I have less than $50k in stocks and I am still down over $4k today and over $6k in the last 3 days.

Thank God I pulled out 90% of my investments.

I was already down $160k in two weeks..I'd be down another $60k this week.

you might want to use two terms:

"investments"

and

"trades"

or "rentals" instead of "trades" if that works.

Investments are meant to be held for a long time and are high conviction. What you are doing is trading or renting.

Gamestop going on a runner.

Straight up.

Too bad I only have $1,500 in it.

Gamestop up 17% in nine minutes.

Now heading back down.

Lots of manipulation going on

To paraphrase the WSJ, the Fed chairman said things are fine, don't panic, so the bond market panicked again, and stocks panicked too.

How can this just be algorithms or stop-loss orders? I can't see anything I own that I'd sell at its current price, knowing it will all likely recover. Taking a loss that way is irrational.

I don't understand your question. Add a couple more lines to this line.

You guys need to help Cathy Wood out. Come on Bulls!

Here are the daily returns on my (albeit volatile) investments.

-4.86%, -4.19%, - 11.74%, -10.71%, -8.09%, -2.97%, -4.47%, and -10.31%.

And + 6.58% (GME).

S+P 500 down 1.34%.

Safe to say the last three weeks the market has been bad and my stuff has been bad x 5.

how about 3, a haiku even

Wall Street is a mob

Stupid frightened animals

Running back and forth

I don't worry, I just loaded up on more Logitech which I noticed analysts drooling over a few weeks ago. They all insist it's gonna be worth $122 within the year, it was $93 at one point today.

Hussman HSGFX +1.18%

He has no idea how it works but he's gonna continue to insist.

The bond market isn't "freaking out," people are speculating that the long term outlook is getting getting better and it is.

Yes! Hey, a 9¢ gain looks pretty good percentage wise when your fund price is depressed. But, so what? It’s just money, baby!

Buy ARKK, Troll. Just up your alley. I heard it is on sale.?

Thanks, Ignatz. There’s no such thing as bad publicity. Right?

I wonder how Bummbull is doing.

Thanks Troll. I appreciate the confidence of your $100 investment in ARKK. I know it is a sacrifice.
