I have VUG
Toss a coin at this point. I’m just gonna grab my ankles and hold on for dear life.
Long Term Investors / 401Ks… this type of turmoil is great, because your buying on a regular basis on the way down and the way back up.. Long Termers time is on your side… 401Ks are buying stocks bi weekly or monthly and dollar cost averaging.. getting some good deals right now…
Only the ballers are buying which causes the median prices to go up. Phoenix has record high inventory and record low sales. Nothing but price cuts by me, especially on new builds.
For ETF's, I have QQQ, DIA, DVY. The latter, has done pretty well with this pull back (makes sense looking at the underlying holdings). Until today. Weird day - many of the 'defensive' stocks got beat down, some tech held strong, while others declined. Retail wasn't good either.
You never know until you grab the doorknob lol, I picked up some stuff yesterday for the long haul.Will this be another day of slamming our dick in a doorway

There’s a ton of them. Apps. Ninja trader, robinhood. Schwab. Just search paper trading. Maybe go where you want to trade so you get familiar with their platform.
Short answer, short-term capital gains (assets held for one year or less) are taxed at ordinary income tax rates, if you are buying for 15 months you will have 3 months that are eligible for long term cap gains tax and you MUST sell your stocks as First in First Out to assure you are selling just the stock bought prior to the 12 months required period. All that said, basically the total amount of stock profits and income made during the year along with when you sell a stock dictates your tax liability for that stock. So much info available online I would do a bunch of research and if unsure ask your CPA or Tax Professional for a final clarification just to be sure you are not screwed at the end of the year. JMO. (Shinto on the boards is a smart cookie you could also ask him for advice he is always a great source of info).
So there is a way to tell when you bought each stock individually purchased even though they’re all the same in the same box. Date code or such. Shintoo has helped me before.
Since there is a way to track it yes......going to have to poke around your past buy/sell history that should be there. If you need help on that you should be able to call whoever you are trading thru.
When you buy or sell, these become what's known as lots. Each trade will show the lot( shares bought or sold and at what price, and date). It pays to be mindful when short term trading as it can have a serious tax ramification.
Yes, you can go into your trade or transaction history, punch up a specific stock, date range, click bought or sold, usually gives you all the details needed. To do the First bought First sold, or last bought last sold or even highest cost or lowest cost you have to go to your account and check search or even on google they describe almost every trading platform info.
Thanks I hadn’t tried and didn’t know what to look for.
When your viewing your holdings, look to the sides of your stock ticker symbol to see if there is some form of a drop down menu available. Possibly an arrow symbol, or some lines stacked on top of another. Click on that & look for something that says: Lot Details, Tax Lot Details, View Positions, etc. That should provide you with a listing of purchase dates & amounts.
I'm waiting for TSLA to get back to $220 lolSurprised there have been no comments in this thread till just now, is everybody in shock or what?
I’ve been nibbling and picking adding to some existing positions, but my cash reserves are getting down to the point where I’m gonna have to stop this shit.
I moved all my 401 to safe spot.Surprised there have been no comments in this thread till just now, is everybody in shock or what?
Why move your 401k to a safe spot after the drop?
Anyone who’s been in the markets for any length of time takes their lumps now and then.
I had a little money in NKLA at one time. 
Was it restricted stock he was locked into or did he just not have forethought to diversify?
He listens to stupid people and thought the easy 5% dividend was great. It is until there is a large “event”Was it restricted stock he was locked into or did he just not have for thought to diversify?
I use it as one of my benchmark comparisons. It pretty consistently matches or beats the S&P 500.
How has play been on public courses? Still pretty busy?
I'm not promoting nor do I even play golf but the Refuge in Lake havasu opened their golf range.
