Smith & Wesson. I've said it before as well.

Not going to make 500% on it but it's probably something good to have exposure to with what's going on.

If you're going down that road prob worth looking at RGR as well.

Yeah...either, or.

Doesn't look like it enjoyed the vaccine news much though!

Still a good hold once the hype dies down in my opinion.

EZJ up 35% on today's news. Been a good day for some people, less so if you own Peleton, Netflix etc.

Selling off beginning this month was the worst decision I made all year! Cd hv had around 75k if stayed in. After seeing this the last few days, I started dabbling in some swing trades. Slowly building up. Bought ARCT when it was down 45% yesterday and gonna be selling that off this morning for a little spike.
60k hunting. Let’s keep going!! Sprint thru finish line. #NoQuit

Still haven’t played any live poker, but keep looking for gd games. The poker roll and I are ready to put it on the line.

I fully expect market to boom until January - where the usual sell offs occur. Post inauguration when Biden takes over and the new policies get stale mated the market should continue to lull.

May be a good entry on some of those that dropped post vaccine news. The lockdown 2.0 is on the horizon.

Thinking bout jumping in on some oil stocks. Am I foolish for seeing a run?

Side note: big fan of clean energy. Hate oil stocks but love money more. If I see an opportunity, I’m gonna go for it.

If you just keep putting all your money on all the stocks that have lost all their value you will be a millionaire in no time. Literally can't go tits up.

BS, keep in mind that Biden may try to re-start Obama's "war on the poor" that trump killed off and one of the major tenants of that war is increasing energy costs in the US via raising taxes and regulation on oil while giving that money to their competitors in clean energy.

I'm with BS's insightful analysis of "The price is down so it must go back up at some point."

With not a single thought as to why the price went down in the first place.

I'm still holding onto my East India shares. Have a feeling 2021 will be the comeback.

Until I can see an airplanes (or anything else of weight) run on electric; then I’m gonna stay curious to oil prices.
I’m not a fan, but it’s here to stay. I since a turnaround w the prices at these levels. It’s economics for me.
I’m no expert, but I’m willing to put my own money otl.

We been on the Ignition grind during my slow days. Slow days are just about every day now. Winter creeping it’s head and OSC is coming to a red light. Last few weeks we been dabbling, but now I plan on playing more of these 3 man jackpot turbo sngs.
We started w $400 deposit and hv doubled to $800. We are not using bankroll management. I repeat, WE ARE NOT USING BRM.
Every sng game is $60-$100...I just can’t get interested enough for anything less. If we go broke, we still gd. But we’re swinging for fences. Let’s riu.

They are spin n gos I'm guessing. 3 players, winner take all. Typically they don't pay great, so you have to win a decent clip, but occasionally you'll get a 5x or 10x payout - with the chance of hitting the jackpot payout.

Been having some network issues off and on the last week. Tonight was the worst. Sorry got ahead of ourself w the daily pics posts. Just can’t waste those hundreds getting buffered/booted off. That felt sickening tonight! Must withdraw.
