I don’t know.

I will reduce my Apple shares next pump though.
I think I’m better served to lock those large gains into something like VUG as Apple hasn’t done anything new in a long time. Milking I phone won’t last forever.

Tough decision. This thing can pop to $150 at a drop of a dime or go under $100. Long term, you can't go wrong. Short term, tough decision.

Exactly. Long term cannot go wrong, short term if you make a profit you can always sell and hope it goes down again (which I think it will once we correct a bit after this run up).

He was just talking about 80% would be a good figure, Caroline just stated he is NOT going to change from the 145%. Playing hardball because China is drowning right now, they are in such pain, factories have closed, people are actually rioting about jobs and money, the countries that China tried swaying away to take the products that the US was buying failed, I can almost guarantee there will be a great deal coming out of this.

I believe good news will come soon. It has to change soon due to the future isnt looking to good if it dont. The last big bulk of ships will be hitting the ports shortly then its really going to die off. The effects of the tarrifs/trade embargo americans are about to feel. I think we will get get some green but I dont see it lasting. Im not feeling very bullish for the future.

I could use some cash at the moment. Feeling the pain we all feel.

For short term traders…yes I fully understand some of yall’s concerns.

Seriously, Trump is making HUGE progress on many fronts, at the same time. Hamas is about to release the last american hostage, Iran is still negotiating nuke deal. Tariff deals are happening, and will happen alot faster once the first couple ones are fully completed. Russia now wants to sit down with Zelinski… which I don’t 100% believe at all, but they did say that on their state run news agency, which is new / different.

For Long Term investors… I see a BULL MARKET… Thinking we will be breaking new highs on the SP500 in 4-5 months ish. Could be alot faster, pending what congress can pass in the big beautiful budget package. Especially is there are tax breaks for middle income.

edited… AND Trump is heading to Saudi next week… so you know thats very bad news for Iran… VERY… thats the last thing they want to see.

What am I missing?

As I had said many times, once another deal is made we are going to BOOOOOM and here we are.. (not even thinking China would be the next to fold but glad they decided to come to their senses). I am up 151k premarket, may sell it all today may only sell partial because 2 of the 3 stocks I have monster positions in are booming, the 3rd is just stable and up a bit.

Dude… I know your a short term trader….. but if I where you…
I would hold positions till the market breaks new highs…

If you are truly feeling the heat… sell in increments… 33% here…. Another 33% when we get about 5% from Market peaks…. And finally 33% at market peak…

Something to consider… because you will be leaving at least 10% Pending the stock, on the table… assuming the we are 10% from market peaks…

I am an all or nothing trader on each position lol. I decided to keep both the high flyers because I think they will go up another 50% at minimum. (at least for a few days lol).

I’d just like to know what everybody’s utopia of “out of the woods” is?

It seems to me that we’ve been scrambling around the woods for many many many years.🤣

My financials and energy stocks are starting out very strong today. PSX followed by VLO amongst others close by :)

Just heard a guy on TV say he expects another 50% downward price on gold

Also claimed today is nothing as compared to going forward

Lots of excitement out there. Lets drive this market rally right up the DEMS ass

personally up about 1% at this point today on my entire portfolio. Much needed

What’s the catalyst for the next sell off? Tariffs have been a big distraction, but we all know their is something else brewing in the financial melting pot.

Housing is still sky high. Unemployment is low. Transportation is very expensive. Food prices reaching the point of rationing.

Will it be a major World War? Something more destructive than WWI and WWII ……combined?

Don’t forget survival planning, as you stock pile your wealth.

Personally, I believe the catalyst will be the truth about the economy getting out.

All the number we see are skewed. Numbers being revised at later dates, definitions being changed, it’s all a game.

There sure are a lot of pessimists in this thread.🤔

Not pessimist. Just cautious. I'm up a lot today. Had AFRM calls that I bought on Friday and sold them today up 150% on those. I just tend to be on the cautious side because one post on Truth Social or X can change everything.

If you're in it long term, none of this matters but if you're also day trading, then you have to watch out for these things and keep it realistic. I welcome all this up and down by the way. It's awesome for trading.
