What did you learn this year that made you a better investor? I’ll go first: 1. The trend is your friend. 2. Making money > being right 3. Everyone’s wrong sometimes. Take a small loss and move on. Takeaway: Strong fundamentals + momentum can be life changing.

Since 1926, the average bull market lasted 8.9 years with an average return of 468%. The average 🐻 lasted 1.4 years with an average loss of 41%. I’ll take those odds. No one knows when the next crash or bear market is coming. Tune out the noise and stick to your plan.

Buying the dip has worked for 40+ years. Except for a handful of years during extended drawdowns, it’s been the right move for two generations. Buying the dip enabled your parents & grandparents to retire. So let’s stop treating dip buying like a Covid artifact by dumb retail.

Pullbacks reveal your true feelings about your portfolio. Can’t sleep at night? You’re too far out on the risk spectrum. Unusually worried about a stock? You don’t have as much conviction as you thought.

Unpopular Opinion: Be careful. $PLTR has 60% public ownership. The pullback will be swift and brutal. I never use stops. But I’d use stops on all the small cap meme stocks right now. $PLTR, $JUMIA, $NIO

This is an interesting perspective on when the bull market began. Thoughts?

There’s been some confusion about the date of the final lockup expiration for $ABNB. Based on the prospectus, I believe it already passed. But I emailed IR to confirm. If I hear back, I’ll let y’all know.

$TDOC is looking weak today. If it breaks $200, I’m buying LEAP calls. Price won’t be weak forever. What do you think, traders?
