Does anyone know what constitutes a day trade on Robinhood? Been 3 days since I bought in on Boeing, thinking about selling out now before tomorrow's slew of bad news hits.
Buying and selling the stock on the same trading day. If you bought Boeing 3 days ago you're in the clear.

how does it not? It’s not a big deal in they likely will be back to normal when this CV shyt is over.

Restaurants run lean, a mass downturn like this would cause disruption in paying rent, especially when you can’t attempt to float yourself from takeout like neighborhood restaurants might be able to.

this corona aint goin away for a while


The Cheesecake Factory, one of the most popular sit-down restaurant chains in the country, says it will not be able to make upcoming rent payments for any of its storefronts on April 1 because of significant loss of income due to the coronavirus crisis.

The Calabasas Hills-based company informed all of its landlords in a letter dated March 18 (reproduced below) that a severe decline in restaurant traffic has decreased its cash flow and “inflicted a tremendous financial blow” to business. Cheesecake Factory’s affiliated restaurants, such as Rock Sugar and North Italia, will also not make April 1 rent payments.

Company chairman and CEO David Overton writes, “Due to these extraordinary events, I am asking for your patience, and frankly, your help.” He continues, “we appreciate our landlords’ understanding given the exigency of the current situation.” The letter says that the company hopes to resume paying rent as soon as possible.

You brehs are going to lose a lot of money assuming all stocks are going back to what they were trading at 3 months ago. It doesn't work like that. You might catch a good trade on a short squeeze but be careful holding if you don't need how to read financial statements and understand markets really well.

Corona issue hasn't been solved. We threw a stimulus at it. Cities will have to remain closed.

Tomorrow's numbers are going to be wild. Be careful everyone. Don't get greedy. Make your decent return and get out

Corona numbers are spiking. You're not going to be rallying with 500+ Americans drying every day and trading desks in new York shut down for the next month.

I only fukk with large caps companies that have some kind of market edge so I don't bother wth a lot of the chatter around the smaller companies on here.

Wth that said, there was a post some time back regarding some gene therapy companies that Martin Shkreli liked. Scooped up a handful that were slightly battered and got some great returns :ehh:

Reading financial statements isn't too difficult after like 10-15 minutes on YouTube. A couple videos can drill in the basics so you aren't buying total BS.

I understand what you're saying. I wasn't planning on holding much for too long anyway, unless it just looks too good of an opportunity to pass up on. At the same time, do we think that we have already seen the bottom? How much more can it fall? Have most of the people who wanted to get out already gotten out?
