Thanks Graustus. Nothing life threatening at the moment. Of course the end doesn't need to give advance
notice. Need to look at the bright side more. Paying full fare for my girls college, and setting my grandkids up
for success, no small feats for a blue collar construction worker and an LPN who went back to school after
being home with our girls for ten years.
Seems I have always had a problem enjoying accomplishments, as I always put a new goal out there to attain.
Time to do a prolog on this book. LOL!
I went through all accounts I manage this week and simplified.
Just can't for the most part get myself to buy into the new highs. Trying to keep 30 to 50k for a pullback. If
things get serious I always have ATLCZ.
Had a little fun in my IRA too. AVGO was a great trader. Bought seven, and sold six of them for +$215.
Guess that is over now as the split is showing on Schwab.
LRCX bought five, sold two for $36. Six bucks in the hole on the three kept.
$13 in the hole on four COST I bought.
Brother brought SMR to my attention. Thought it might be good long term. Ended up buying 12 shares, but
sold +$21, as I think the hype is too soon and there will be a better time. Now probably go to $100.
Decided CAVA could be a future CMG. Turned profitable, no debt, planning on 15% annual growth, and they
sound like the smartest people in the room. As per my norm, started too early, $262 in the hole on 63 shares
so far. Wouldn't mind 100.
Small stocks:
Definitely been lagging. Why the only ETFs I have been adding are COWZ and CALF. Added 10 more CALF
this week, but this might be over now with this weeks move.
Always something in the small cap arena going up, but many of my selections would have best been skipped
while the sheet was hitting the fan.
ADMA showing a $3800 gain on 600 shares sold, plus +$4300 on the 500 I still hold.
SPRY made me nervous so I sold 40%. -$1300 on those shares, but up $10,300 on the 3000 I hold.
PESI which I think has big things coming in the next few years, showing -$589 on the 2943 I am holding, but
have sold 1200 for $900 while I wait.
WVE sold 500 for +$292, hold 1825 +$419.
Current "little dogs":
DTST added 50 this week. 400 -$239.
SDOT last buy 1000 5/15 @ .29. Holding 8709 -$3656 no restaurant sale yet.
XAIR last buy this week 1500 @.57. revenue for this year cut from 16X last year to 10X last year. May have
waited one more quarter as they are talking big $ use this quarter yet, but product is real, revenue growth is
real, and I expect profitability in 2/3 years.
Decided I will have to write notes for my stock market following son in law on traders I hold.
All the best to you and yours! |
