Here's where I get stumped -News is out that China and the Us have some sort of deal on tarrifs .. PreM jumped !
Your plan ,, stick to it ! ... dont listen to the other babblers ,,, its like readng product reviews and not your own DD ...Here's where I get stumped -
My practice portfolio is up -(wish it were real lol) but is this the point where I would consider taking profit on the NVDA stock? It's up to about a 24% gain since i bought the 10 stocks.
I wouldn't sell any ETF since those are long and have divs. But NVDA can take a big drop on news or keep rising on news.
My dilemna is some say take profit other stuff i read says stay in. If you always stay in, then the big drop comes there goes the profit ( albeit unrealized)
Youll never time the markets or the buy and sellThat happened when I bought NVDA pre split. It moved way up and I held and down down down - if I had cashed out I find have made more and there was definitely more buy opportunities later.
I did get out in the green but i think i held to long
Gotta know when to hold em, Know when to fold em ..... I'm not a good gambler hahah
Waiting is a money loser , period IMO ! I can tell you how kany stocks I was thinking cost to much that I was proved very wrong and lost the opertunity ...I always feel like it's to late to buy but it seems to work against me
The green ones are all tied to Chinese products/market and the red ones aren't so much. Except WM and I'm not sure why it's not upCheck out the red stocks on this watch list .
Todays China tariff news kicked the market in except those stocks on the list ...... In general , why and what do you see odd about that ?

Thank you - very sound opinion. And I've come to see and realize that - because of this thread! It's been such a learning tool for me.Waiting is a money loser , period IMO ! I can tell you how kany stocks I was thinking cost to much that I was proved very wrong and lost the opertunity ...
I think many positions are way high and they keep proving me wrong ... like aapl at 500 plus , but got in anyway with a few shares here and there ,, then 2 splits and the price was then down around 90$ ,,, I loaded up on the drops ... now I have a major position value .. it doesnt happen overnight but aapl didnt take long at all .. googL , Amzn, TSLA , msft , PM , Meta are a few that turned out really great , all still longs with divs ( Except TSLA) forma long time .. Ive owned them for years/ decades and just collecting divs , watching the growth and account value going up ..
It times like the last 4 years that can drive investors crazy ,, but those times make for great buy ops which can turn into fortunes ...
Absolutely! And I've seen it proven over the last year! You have sound practice. May not fit everyone but I've scrutinized it and I've definitely started leaning more towards the invest rather than trade Frame of mindThe point is ,, like everything else ,, If you dont try you'll never know ..
No matter what you do there is some kind of risk ...
Some of what I see are basically US companies that tend to be recession proof and somewhat inflation proof .. All are solid div. Paying companies that are a major part of peoples investment portfolios .. They should not be or have been affected by the tariffs .The green ones are all tied to Chinese products/market and the red ones aren't so much. Except WM and I'm not sure why it's not up
I thank you and I thank Prof for starting it years ago .... Just wish he would pop in and give more feedback along with others .. Im always looking for more myself !Thank you - very sound opinion. And I've come to see and realize that - because of this thread! It's been such a learning tool for me.
You can play it both ways .. I do trades once in a while but prioritise investing to build income ! If a trade fails at least I have the div income to keep it growing or have funds to add more or pay bills etc !Absolutely! And I've seen it proven over the last year! You have sound practice. May not fit everyone but I've scrutinized it and I've definitely started leaning more towards the invest rather than trade Frame of mind![]()
