True but I'll say it again...I've still lost money and all because Trump is an idiot and a pawn...as now proven

you don't lose money until you sell at a loss.

If you sell at a loss; you're doing it wrong; i.e., you haven't planned sufficiently. unless you need to offset gains for tax purposes.

today's drops in all major indices was less than 1%; that's nothing. even the recent 3% drops...all modest buying opportunities.

I'm still buying on many of these dips, not today because the drop wasn't big enough. I'm also still waiting for the crash.


many sellers are panic selling. SMH. this provides opportunities for others like myself. don't panic sell. ride it out; if it's a good investment, buy more when it's down...or find other investments that are on sale in the down market.

I'm pretty sure I have a handle on what I'm doing but I thank you for your insight and tips.

I haven't sold anything but loaning power decreases with a lesser valued asset...as you know.

that's different.

this is why using leverage needs to be done carefully; you have to anticipate margin calls, and be ready to cover.

it's easy to over extend, especially in a volatile market. high reward always has high risk. IMO, there are safer ways to manage high risk and high reward; but if you're in deep in margins, you need to cut your losses or keep feeding it equity.

I'm spread thin on purpose...tax credits etc...

I don't have to sell but I'll never recover what I've lost to date...unless there's an unforeseen windfall coming.

this is why I rarely use leverage; outside of very finite situations, and be in a position to cover.

I'm slowly building a SBLOC while also having sufficient cash reserves to cover risks (margin calls, interest rates) so I'm not pressured to sell. It's not for me, it's for my heirs... to inherit a ready-made BBD - Buy, Borrow, Die system...and other assets.

All sage words. This whole page. It is funny to me the one person who associates your posts with a laughing emoji :lol:

No. Fucking. Clue. :poke:

Thanks. Though I did initially miss @NoHassle was talking about being leveraged when I posted what you quoted.

as we've seen, CrotchBoi is just background noise and TDS rants and meme spams. the capitalist-hating business owner with employees. I'm sure he lets his employees run his business and decide their hours and wages by committee like a good socialist tycoon. :yes:

No matter the year, Panic Sellers = Dodo Birds/Slow Gazelles.

I find it amusing (at first, then sad ☹️ ) how many dummies out there with JACK SHIT for investments and no experience outside of their managed company 401Ks offer investing "advice" to the interwebs.

Obviously, the market will continue to seesaw long after we are all dead. Value in the long game is what matters. But that's not why our Leftist friends keep stinking up this thread, they are just trying to secure a daily fix of political points when the market is down, so they cheer for it to go down when their puppet isn't in the White House. Actual Value of political points = $0.00. 🤡
