Boeing currently at $371. I just put in a limit order to buy a small amount if the price gets to $350 or less. Will probably never execute, which is fine. [Reply]

TTWO has treated me well over a long period of time and it's been down a fair bit this year. Plus, I feel like I'm investing in the promotion of auto-based crime sprees. [Reply]
Boeing will be a great value - in like three to six months when Wall Street realizes that the 737 pipeline was 60% of Boeing's revenue, and that it is going to take way longer than anticipated to finish the investigation and implement FAA approved fixes. [Reply]

If anything, take a flier on GE.
Or.. you know. Just buy the fucking index since you can't beat the fuckin index.
The 787 was grounded when they had the battery issue after its launch, and that was just a blip. I'm betting that this will be the same thing. It unfortunately caused a bunch of people to die, whereas the 787 problem didn't. But I don't think the deaths are going to drag Boeing down. [Reply]

Dreamliners are to Porsche Cayennes as 737 MAXs are to Jetta TDIs.
VLKAY is fucked over worse if they're needing to fix an innately fatal issue with Jettas compared to a potentially fatal issue with Cayennes. [Reply]

Those speculating that the market may only return 2-3% in the next decade are saying actively managed funds may surpass index fund gains if gains really do loathe that much. [Reply]

There are always a handful of active funds that beat the market. Which few, and for how long, is a big crap shoot. Best of luck if that's your strategy though. [Reply]
