Employer said I now have to pre-clear individual stock trades. Dampens the trading excitement. I keep buying index funds and other funds on the daily. Market always comes back...eventually.

It's been looking like a falling knife for a while now.

The market climbed to record highs, it peaked in February, with crazy multiples. it has a long way to go down.
Kind of what I was saying with my patience comment

Most of this volatility is Tariff threats and uncertainty. Wait til we enter a recession. It's inevitable and about time...........

Don't let fear of the "R" word or Tariff's scare you out of your solid quality investments or buying on the dips. What goes up must come down but in the market eventually goes back up. No one can be positive that we may have a correction coming or not but it seems like we might be heading towards one, 10% would actually do the market good getting some of these crazy valuations under control and creating some amazing opportunities to buy some great stocks, either way there is money to be made in the market, may change to long term profits vs daily, weekly, monthly gains but profits will always be made in the market no matter what happens. (As long as you know what you are doing). (PS I have had my knife dropping gloves on and been buying on every dip lol)...JUST MY OPINION

Absolutely agree, it's not necessarily a bad thing unless you are over extended and can't afford to wait it out.........

I am most likely picking up a swing trade on NVDA, today/tomorrow…
Unless I find something with a better upside.

Adding to my Sofi position…

Whats your top picks right now?

Waiting for for about 10am PST to get a better feel for what the market is going to do today.
Today is pricing in tomorrows news….
Tomorrow could also be a red day, because we dont know???? But it could also be a green day, if the news is not as bad as most think…

So today could be the day, to take advantage of, pending how much your risk tolerance it?????

MAN UP MFKRS… LOL…. just messing with yall…

Last think PYPL…
Those that are following it.. most of the stocks I am watching are very very red… PYPL is barely moving on a red day…
Telling me its pretty close to bottom, with not much selling pressure at all.
It will most likely be a very slow recovery… but I still see a nice upside potential for those looking for a safer investment.

Wish I had some capital this morning.

If a big crash happens. I think I may take the hit and pull the kids CD early and put it in the market.

Got some more NVDA, sold F, a buddy of mine texted me asked if I had shares of NMAX, I said have not even looked at it, he said he was going to buy 1k shares at 10 but missed the IPO open price on NMAX site, we watched it go up and up as it kept getting halted a bunch of times, I kept missing the buy... finally I said take a chance and bid 27.25 when it halted at 27 for the 5th time, kept shooting up as it opened and halted, got 1850 shares at 27.25, kept going up fast (all this in 20 minutes) finally I said I better sell before it drops so I put in a sell order for 42.25 when it was at 38.50....sold in another 2 minutes. $27500.00 WOW. Not trying to brag but due to my buddy I had a great day, if he did not text me I would have missed it. lol left money on the table but said NOT TO BE GREEDY. It's at 51 halted again a few minutes after I sold lol. Now up to 56...gave up 25k more but my view is safe than sorry so no complaints...well not a lot of complaining lol. Now at 59.50 and halted again...crap where is this going...high of 77, wow what a miss...

Picked up a 50% of NVDA for a swing trade, saving some dry powder incase tomorrow gives us a bigger discount.
Picked up another 25% of SOFI….

I am very happy with my patience to date. But I am worried that tomorrows news could cost me some serious $$$ or a long time to recover.

I have confidence that Trump doesnt want to upset the markets to much, tomorrows announcements should not be as bad as Wall Street is expecting…

So in some respects, these are risky times for sure, but with higher risk should come with higher rewards, or expenses… one way or another. I have some $$$ still on the sidelines to deploy.

There is about to be a whole lot of $$$ made or lost in the next 48 hours… Hang on to your hats boys… this is gonna be a bumpy ride for sure.

I honestly think NVDA is a Steller stock and will go up hopefully 50-100% from todays price someday down the road hopefully this year BUT what the heck do I know just my opinion.
I think Trump wants the market to go down, if it does a lot further then we may get rates dropped by idiot Powell which would be a good thing, then the market will BOOM once again. I have straps holding down my hat and buying til I am over stuffed.

As I have mentioned…
I have several different accounts that I trade in.
Some are retirement accounts that allow me to buy/hold/sell individual stocks, but not get hit capital gains taxs, but I am limited in the volume of trades I can make.

Other accounts are day trade level accounts…

I own NVDA is several of these accounts. As a Long Term Hold in one, and a Swing Trade in another.
Same with PLTR…

Picking Sofi in a day trading account. Its volatility, may be a good one to buy on dips, and sell on peaks every few weeks. Those gains could add up in hurry, if your willing to pay the tax’s… LOL. Minimum its a swing trade for me, but hoping its long term hold.

Bought some more near closing yesterday thinking "WTF AM I DOING" lol. Sold it premarket this AM made a little more so the sting of selling earlier yesterday morning softened a bit. I have absolutely no clue where this one is going to stabilize or end up.

Especially now that it hit 190+ on the high, just dropped to 149...I think it is adjusting a bit but we will see how today's ride ends up.
