Dumped Revolve. Made no sense to hold 29 shares in the $430 range in my portfolio. If I can't get a position to at least $1000 I usually close it and Revolve went too far above my cost basis. I wasn't gonna keep buying. If the market crashes I'll buy back in. Should have held the proceeds but I averaged down on JP Morgan Chase with 5 shares. Got it above $1000.

That's how i feel about a lot of stocks.

A lot of shyt is over valued. So i'd rather break even then restructure. Not like the economy is about to get better overnight.

Im way more pessimistic on the economy now based on something i heard regarding my industry. This could take years :francis:

what did you hear

Posted on stimulus thread and discord

33% expected drop in revenue in tennis industry

Small businesses are really fukked if its that bad for us

Distancing may be easiest in tennis amongst all sports. If its that bad for us how bad is it for everyone else?

Now, it may just be a bad estimate. Who knows with all the moving variables. But i didnt expect it to be nearly that bad

Took JetBlue from JFK last week and it was still a ghost town in the airport. I took a 12 p.m. flight, looked more like a 3 a.m. flight got through security and baggage claim in less than 10 minutes from walking in. Gates were completely empty nobody in the middle seats and they weren't selling any on flight extras.

I like to do real world research on stocks I'm investing in and it doesn't seem airlines are getting back to normal anytime soon

I can't really say. I didn't sell because I didn't believe in the company I just sold because the position was so small and had a sizable gain. If it was a decent sized position I would have just kept it.

Then again I sold 3 shares of Nvidia in the $170 range bought at $162, 2 shares of Charter in the $320 range bought at $282, 20 shares of AMD in the $30 range bought at $19.50. All those stocks are worth drastically more than I sold at. Charter is $500 Nvidia is $312 and AMD is $53.

Due to how slowly I buy stocks this happens a lot.
