AAPL is a buy for me.
I only got a hand full of shares of Apple. I'm a coward so when I was buying stocks I put about $7000 on FXAIX which is a low fee S&P500 index fund from Fidelity. I only had about $11,000 I was willing to play around with. I divided the other $4000 into individual stocks. Ironically all my individual stocks have barely made me any money but FXAIX has my portfolio up almost $300 since I bought it. Cron Aapl Nvda Msft and AMD have all been winners for me. JD is up a bit too.

What's the difference between fxaix and IVV? I know they are both different s&p 500 stock Investments.

I used to have IVV and it paid decent dividends and within the course of five years it went up 120% until of course the slump came

FXAIX is just a Fidelity brand S&P 500 low cost index fund. Other companies have their own brand funds like Vanguard has VOO. IVV is just someone else’s brand.

$300 on a $11k investment ? Crazy low return (for now). I'd go the penny stock route with $1000 and see what happens.

Yes. That's why I put a few hundred dollars down. If this one, HMNY wasn't too damn low I'd be interested in doing it but this looks like a sub penny stock that I don't know how it isn't delisted already can you imagine even if it went up to $0.10 you're rich.

PIR is still making me smile. I wonder if they'll hit the dollar limit by tomorrow.

If this gets to .$10 ... I didn't even gamble

Man. I wish I brought more I brought it at $10 flat...:francis: :manny: I wish I had more money to play with but not trying to touch my savings...
I only bought about 20 shares myself. Could have bought more but I wasn't a believer.

I knew cron would blow up later down the line... but I copped 35 pieces of ACB as a backup and plan to get more so that way when THAT blows up I'll be sitting nice...:youngsabo:

Portfolio is all in red today.

Still mad I did not pull trigger on HMNY bit I posted it here so that those with deeper pockets can take advantage.

My better judgment says I should sell all my shares of Cron and take the lil $70 profit. I didn't sell Nvidia when it got to $160 and took a huge L on it.

If they don't spinoff MoviePass or kill it the company will fail.

Call me a $170 fool but I bought HMNY. I missed the 60% jump but bought in on the slight dip today.
