On days like today, you just gotta find the companies that got beat up more than they should have. Gives you buying opportunities

It is very easy to make good money when stocks are steadily rising. Even old farts like me made money without the need to trade often. I did sell from about 23k dow and up. I'll start buying if it gets below that, but only a little at a time in case it continues to falI. Ineeded to keep selling to get to the percentage of bond I wanted in

The government and the Fed are proping up the stock market.

That’s why I just go long (or day trade if the opportunity presents itself). They almost always go back up. I could have bought Spirit last week at $25, and as long as I have patience, I won’t lose any money. It may take 6 months, but they’d eventually hit it.

I’m still learning and only buying what i can afford to lose.
Is BA a good price looking long term?

If you're looking 10ish years out? Absolutely. It's a $400 stock once they get the 737 MAX production back up and some issues on the defense side fixed. Could definitely dip below 170 in the short term.

BA is critically important to the USA remaining the USA. However, the Federal gov't has got to step in financially, and at some point they might still decide to wipe out the shareholders. So it's a either/or proposition. It'll either go to zero or it won't. If it doesn't, you're okay long-term.

I was reading your post and then I went to do dishes and get everything ready for the night and I had to come back. The stomach issues in my life were never there until this day trading started. Sweating at night, anxiety throughout the day and the need to pull all 4000 shares of CCL purchased at 11.50. The next day it went up to 12.45 and boom I had made money (didn't know about taxes) and I said out loud take out dinner and a $30 bottle of wine is on this guy. Wake up after maybe 2 more bottles of wine, with a bit of a headache and welp the market is open. I am looking at my account and somehow it is red and I am losing money. What the $@%@$, I juat paid for dinner and I thought I was big balling!!. Sold everything at 11.40 and vowed never to do this crap again. I came in here and listened, not many comments juat followed some friendly advice and tried it once more. I have not looked back since mid April. You will be humbled whether on the first week or the first month or even a day like today!! The people in here are nothing but helpful and once you get the hang it is alot of fun. Remember XSPA and GNUS make more money FOR YOU,then TSLA ans AMZN. Enjoy the ride, do some DD, listen to some of the people in here and always be humble when you win and when you lose.

Since there's a lot of **** that gets thrown against the wall to see what sticks, I'll guess that there will be an afternoon or late morning sell off. Might even end the day down. Other than buyers not wanting to hold positions into the weekend after a bad week, it's just a guess.

Well, Friday’s are typically sell days. I’ll hold. SAVE loves to gap up over weekends.
