I can leverage up about 4x when markets are open (only 2x overnight). I'd like to employ the capital that magically comes available every day--which means day-trading--but how is day trading anything but a gamble? With all the talk of resistance levels, moving averages, trendlines, etc., what...

I find that having a second job/interest that I can work while the ball bounces helps a lot. Take some university/night classes. They can be related to trading, like Computer Science, Mathematics, and Economics, ir something completely different, like Psychology or Genetics. It also helps to...

Yeah because they printed zillions of dollars and flooded the system with cash, devaluing every dollar by 40%. Their positive movements are just equity prices catching up with the resulting inflation. AAPL's fundamental worth hasn't changed much since 2019, but its dollar measurement has! If In...

Didn't he kill the dog too?

I wonder... if you have an active rental and the company files for bankruptcy, do you get to keep the car?

Betcha I could do the same in 200 sloc or less. Quality, not quantity my friend. ;)

...the spread of communism must be halted. It's dejá vu, all over again.

Or just order through Kitco or JM Bullion.

Not to investors!!!

Another in what I expect to be a slew of CV-fallout bankruptcies. Traders and friends, please be sure to assess bankruptcy risk before taking a position in industries hard-hit by CV. Obviously airlines and cruise lines, but also associate businesses, like hotels, auto rental, stores that have...
