learn to let go brehs.

if you didn't see this dip coming, admit you were wrong and take the small loss.

if you are able to admit when you are wrong, you will be successful. Nothing cool about taking punishment. Take profit or a loss........... don't hold to losers!!

Just saw this thread.

I started out like many here. Chasing quick bucks but I changed strategies and went the long-term route (sticking together like flour and water to make that slow dough ... for the Outkast fans). I try to buy good companies with history of rebounding after tough quarters. CAT, AXP, NKE fit that profile. Dividends make it easier to stomach the pain.

- I bought some Ford calls this morning. $11 w/ 5% dividend. WIll drop a lot here after the high from the new CEO wears off. They will announce a special dividend or stock buyback in next 3 months.
- Eating good on Lumber Liquidators. I jumped this around $11 last Feb. Was a long slow ride, but sitting on $30 this morning. That one paid off big. I sold 25% of my stake at $26 to lock in profit. Riding it to 40+ with the rest.
- Jumped on some UAA (Under Armour) too.

Otherwise, I'm waiting on dips and not getting to overextended so I can make a move next time Trump does some Trump-ish shyt.

Your doing great! I like your strategy keep it pushing

Trump may not have much fanfare, but business is booming and the gains have been good to many in the markets
