One quick buy today...Starbucks. I bought 100 shares for $97.17 I then did a covered call for the June 24 $100, for $8.45. It seems they are gaining and holding market share...I don't know how long that will last. They will need to close some lower performing locations. Still expanding...

Or this...

They learn Castilian Spanish...Like learning King's English. My wife went to Spain for a month, and Mexico for a month during college. Also other trips to Mexico over the years (even our honeymoon). We took a trip to Spain (before the kids came). We knew that once the kids came, it would be...

Small and medium size businesses are getting squeezed for the next few months...That is what I get out of it. Maybe short a small growth ETF for Dec/Jan??

I've been chewing on a few things for the last couple of days. "Neither a borrower nor a lender be, For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry." Hamlet I overheard something in the airport the other day. One company is trying to buy out another. They...

Don't know...My wife had it for years. There may have been one or two covered calls. She tends to do less of them in her Roth IRA. "On paper" she has made good money with this company. You may not believe this, but she will look long and hard at "her" stocks every year or few years. If she...

Back from Montana...What a long day. Last night I was moving equipment for wheat/barley harvest. Today, two hour drive to catch a flight from Great Falls, 1 1/2 layover in Salt Lake, then onto Sacramento. Then another 2 1/2 drive (in traffic) home. I just viewed the markets, but didn't look...

Didn't read the whole thread... I'm a insomniac...I can understand these issues. If you've read my threads on these forums, many of my trades are submitted the night before or after 11am Pacific time...Two hours before the markets close!! I take both Ambien and Xanax. Both can really mess...

I plan to be on vacation for a week...No trades. Also no CDs or US Treasuries maturing. The only thing I will do (unlikely as it might be), if the market drops over 20%, I will pick up 100 shares of QQQ. No real research needed for that one...

Look into Youtube crock pot ideas...

Most investors don't understand farm land. They look at income rather than assets. Most farmers/farm ETFs try to hide their income!! They want assets to grow, not income. No, they do not want to be losing money...Investors could bail. But the years they gain money, they will plow it back...

I stopped security when Obamacare came in. I had two health insurance policies (security and private)...Both didn't cover a lot of stuff. Once Obamacare came in, I was free from jumping though a lot of hoops. Once Medicare came in for me and my wife, the world opened up many other...

New trades today...Enovis (ENOV). I put in my price days ago...$54.90, last night I dropped it to $54.83. I picked it up for the low...But it didn't show that low on Yahoo! Finance. I just happened to get it for the low of the day in the first hour...When the markets were down. I couldn't...

At Schwab...Look which bank has the highest 1 year CD rate!! Charles Schwab Bank, TX 5.35% CD 08/20/2024 Northwest Bank PA 5.3% CD 08/23/2024 Preferred Bank CA 5.3% CD 08/30/2024 BANK BARODA NEW YORK NY 5.3% CD 08/23/2024

So you are saying a "flash crash" could/can happen before you blink...??

I think I know the answers, but if you could confirm, it would be nice. Also, if there are any papers written on the subject... So a large institution's computer sees a sell order for the general market. It starts to sell. What were some of the triggers?? Was it a drop or rise in the...

So all of this lovey dovey business was just a trick...

BUT, BUT, KEN, YOU CALLED US FAMILY...
