<There are no "good stocks". They all are garbage.> You are a cynic, which is exactly the right attitude for a day-trader. I hope you understand, I was not criticizing you or your method. You and I are playing different games, with different rules. Your holding period is hours to days; some of my shares I bought 15 years ago. For you, FA is meaningless. I was responding to Lee’s bemoaning all the over-valued stocks that keep hitting ATHs.

< All stocks have risk> Volatility = a stock going up and down. Risk = the probability of a stock going down and staying down. I try to avoid risk. I embrace volatility. Many people confuse volatility and risk, but they are very different. During the entire 2020 downturn, I sold nothing, and bought nothing. My portfolio has recovered. So, the temporary low stock prices did not effect me. I had picked stocks that would recover from that once-a-century event (or any event). So, I avoided risk, and accepted the volatility.
