MCO. Has some reaffirming lessons for me:

It's sometimes ok to buy what you don't know. That would be MCO for me. As also with SIMO here, no matter how much Elroy tries to educate me -g-

Small positions held through some serious ups and downs, and with some fear-based selling of some shares BUT not all, during the bad times, can result in a stock working out ok for the risk-vs-small bet tradeoff.

And sometimes when they work out, they make up for the times when such things don't work out. I've MU shares from 2024-25. Have under 100 shares total with paper profits in many $1000's. On paper anyway

Thanks for your views on Micron, because your analysis gives me some indication that I should continue on this ride.

Madharry, I can see why somebody might find day-trade posts, reported here after the fact, to be irrelevant and maybe irritating, because the information can't be acted upon.

OT Madharry,
Did not see your post until Paul mentioned it, because you are still on timeout.

i did my first day trade in years. bought mu at $373 out at $389
I was expressing my view that MU was oversold at $365 and willingness to act on that.

pls say what you mean and the provide rationale.
I thought that you were showing how lucky or smart you were.
Or maybe you were been saying, "after deep analysis, MU was a value at $373, but not at $389."
certainly neither was a reason for me to do anything.

I made a profit on a day trade on Thursday. I am trying to say that I was careless and entered a buy order in the wrong acct and sold it 2 minutes later. :o)
