Sadly I've not done any investing in stocks or options as I am keeping cash free for a down payment in the community I just moved into. :-)

Well that’s the responsible thing to do!

Or you could put your down payment in something like IQ and lose your ass. That was a good one.

Well, I timed the fuck out of the market only using half my cash two weeks ago :-)

Last week we had 4 straight +1% days for the first time in 38 years and now this, hah. The recovery stocks like cruises are going to have a huge day

Dow is up 6.3% now and the small caps have been stuck at the 7% limit up circuit breaker

Is it because of the vaccine test results?
[Reply]

Appears to be because of the 90% effectiveness with little side effects.

i'm rich, biatch!

I guess as people get vaccinated the first thing they do is cancel their Netflix.

Airline stocks up big time.
[Reply]

Hell yeah!

This is where the math can be cruel. I was down roughly 70 percent on my cruise line stocks. They rose 35 percent and now I'm only down 60 percent. But hey, it's still a big win.

I'm kicking derrieres and taking names today. I just held a lot of my most embattled stocks and even added a little to some of them over the past six months. Today is a great, great day.

I’m still waiting to go on a cruise that was scheduled in May. I think it’s going to be a while before I can reschedule it. If they do open them back up, there’s going to be a huge backlog of people like me that want to reschedule their cruises as well as people wanting to book new ones.

If Pfe really has a 90% vaccine, the cruise lines will be back in business strong. I think some of them have lost capacity by scuttling some of their older ships, so it'll be a while before their stock gets back to breakeven on my purchase prices, but I'm tempted to buy more this week when we see a little pullback from today's exuberance.

Added some more SBE today. With Dementia in the oval he wants to spend 1.3 trillion on EV infrastructure.
