Picked up a handful of shares in amazon a few weeks ago. That worked out pretty well.

I woke up earlier this morning. Grabbed my phone and swiped to my stocks. Looked at DIS. Immediately sold.

NBEV

after the big up move this week, the correction so far is text book. Had a position @ 5.77 and after touched off 5.4, added another position @5.53. If the next major move is wave 3, this is where I want to plant my entry.

Surely that’s not solely due to the ep9 trailer dropping, is it??

It's mostly the Disney+ streaming announcement. Netflix lost 3% simultaneously. It should open up a new revenue stream and give them a better way to monetize the huge library they have now, especially with the fox acquisition.

Signed up for Crave for GoT, and I think the selection is better than Netflix.
With Disney+ being $6.99, I might be cancelling Netflix.

[killramos]

I really like Crave. But the Crave+HBO is a rip-off.

That makes perfect sense. My wife’s going to be all over that.

I wonder how deep they’ll go in their old back catalog. It’d be neat to see some of their really old live action stuff like Old Yeller, Shaggy Dog, Witch Mountain etc. Stuff I haven’t seen for 35-40 years.

damn nice, congrats!

Well played, wish I jumped in on that. Instead I’m stuck with UGAZ sinking.

Wait until $50

[BavarianBeast]

I was just joking about retiring. Just pumped about it as I dumped a huge chunk of change in and honestly didn't expect the SP to recover this quickly. $60 was my PT to be honest, and I figured 12-16 months.

I wouldn't recommend you hold UGAZ for longer than a week danno, it's meant for quick in-and-out and the upside goes down drastically over time. Just FYI if you don't know already.

Yeah, as has been discussed elsewhere, those leveraged funds constantly depreciate. If gas is at $5 today, and UGAZ is at $5 today, 12 months from now gas could be $5 but UGAZ will only be $3 (just a rough e.g., moral of the story is you can never bank on getting your money out of those for anything other than a quick trade).
