Living here in CA where the same Trump haters who would say or do anything to see him replaced also hate the energy companies with the same fervor, I just can't get too excited about buying that sector. Maybe that is a good signal? If I recall, energy usually does well at the end of a cycle when tech stocks start to flatten out. Myself, I'm more interested in taking profits in tech to buy fixed income and maybe eventually getting a less volatile (and profitable) portfolio in exchange for working less and sleeping more! Hard to say as I still really enjoy this life. 11th..... hmmm they might ignore it like they do quite often and really push it down right into expiration.

I should add that I've had more fun/luck/success with the biotech sector rather than energy. I considered adding energy but decided to do biotech many years ago... figuring I knew little about either but bio was harder so probably less competition than energy/oil where people have been making and losing fortunes there for centuries... "Who shot JR?" Everyone loves a cure for cancer and I just had my second Shingrix shot with a secret sauce from one of my micro cap biotech companies that made the vaccine so effective. I pay my own dividends by trading the ups and downs AFTER I've accumulated a big enough position in individual stocks and one of the funds that has a very nice position now all on house money. and those went UP today!
