Chris, That makes sense!
Didn't even know that NSCP doesn't offer you a trading vehicle.
It is kind of interesting that you prefer PFE, MG likes SGP, JT likes MRK, I take LLY (I'm trading, not holding). The point being that 2 of the (only) 5 mutual funds that beat the Index over 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-years are health care funds. With the baby-boomers getting older and falling apart (myself included) it sure doesn't seem like it matters which one you choose. If this market is going up, they will go up faster.
MG is working for a living this week. I get to start in a few short weeks -- Bummer Dude. I am having more fun! I think that 5 of the 8 stocks that I have in various portfolios were up today. No small achievement.
But, I got to tell you a funny one. I bought BLS as a position trade in an account Wednesday at $47 1/8. I immediately (as I now do) put the sell order in at $48 7/16. It slammed on $48 3/8 for 15 mins. and then crashed. I hate to miss by 1/16 of a point. I sure wish I could buy more in that account.
Yup, grab a little under 3% in a day or two any time you can, and one may even be able to beat JT's Leaping Ability! On the otherhand, I've given up trying to trade NAVR, as those four-legged creatures are really tough. Been watching it for a month and still having problems. A friend got a 37% swing from Friday to Monday and I had to settle for 6% as I was trying to trade it. I've come to appreciate to only commit a reasonable bet to them and let it ride (much like blackjack).
Good luck to you!
