I'm pretty much out of ammo. Will be looking to sell short term out of the money calls on 10 positions if/when we get a (dead cat) bounce.

LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs
easilyscan replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
I just read a similar comment on a yahoo message board. The only difference is that this guy was planning a trip to Europe this summer, but was considering canceling because they really hate America right now.

Almost 30 years ago, so things could be a lot different leading up to the latest tariff move. Apologies if this has already been posted. -

#1: Cosmo Kramer: Why? Told Jerry he knows some Russian dudes who could get him free cable, only to see them demand $500 Asked Jerry to shave his back. Not closing Jerry's door & he gets robbed. Installing Jerry's air-condition & it falls out the window & kills a dog. Telling George it would be OK to park his fathers car in a handicap spot Telling Jerry to make illegal copies of movies for Brody Setting Newmans mail truck on fire with his paint thinner Elaine’s nipple shot Christmas card Mail fraud with Jerry’s stereo Burning Susan’s fathers cabin down Feeds the horse beefarino before taking George’s in-laws for a ride The Puffy shirt Convinced miss Rhode Island to sing for the talent portion of the competition Screaming so loud when he passes his kidney stone, that it caused a wire walker to fall Fusilli Jerry ends up lodged in Frank’s arse Traded away a faulty radar detector to Newman The junior mint Convinced Jerry to give money to a volcano relief fund that didn't actually exist. Resulted in an audit Causing the runner to barely make it to the NYC Marathon on time, then costing him the win by spilling scalding hot coffee on him. Kramerica Industries & his idea for a rubber bladder system to prevent oil tanker spills. As usual, Kramer escapes unscathed. His intern Darin wasn't so lucky. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/52d28f4f-a1e5-49e8-a04f-77d60bc281c4 Honorable mention to Alan Harper: Charlie's brother on 2 1/2 men. The ultimate moocher

That sounded right to me too, but they were 2 different actors. Ray Walston was Mr. Hand & Jonathan Harris was Dr. Smith. -
I remember it all too well. Had started accumulating Bank Of America 2 or 3 years earlier. Had dollar cost averaged my way into a 25K loss around the time the market bottomed. I didn't even like to log into my account during that time. I said what the F and bought another 700 shares @ around $8 This brought my average cost down to $24 and change. Not sure how long it took to get back to that point, but I sold when it reached that level & never looked back. I also remember how the markets reacted to 9/11 The company I worked at for almost 30 years, was is in deep trouble in 2001. A packaging/container Co. & the CEO oversaw a horrendous acquisition of a large French company in the same sector sometime in 1997. He wanted to be the biggest at any cost. Another problem for the company was the fact that we had to pay millions into an asbestos fund annually. In 1962, they acquired a small company. The only part of the company they wanted, was the division that made caps for beer bottles. Less than 90 days later, they sold the other part of the company, which made insulation. So 40 years later, even though we held the insulation part of the business less than 90 days, we were the last man standing so to speak, and to this day, still have to pay out millions every year. On the first day the markets opened after 911, I bought 1600 shares at $2.00 I also had 2500 shares purchased through the ESPP @ an average cost of around $20 it's trading in the mid 80s today & the dividend that was eliminated in the late 90s, was brought back about 10 years ago. I still can't remember why, but I also purchased 400 shares of Eli Lilly in the mid-30s sometime in 2011. That, along with Apple, American water works, & eTFs/funds helped me to retire early. If this sounds like I'm bragging, trust me, I've made many mistakes along the way, but I learned to let my winners ride & when I buy something that turns out to be a dud, I don't try to dollar cost average my way back to even. That's the biggest mistake I see with investors on yahoo finance, which has been my homepage since 1998. The only thing that concerns me in this thread, is that many (myself included) assume that it's going to be a short term bear, and will bounce back relatively quickly. I wasn't around for a good portion of it, & wasn't investing at the time, but I've researched the bear market that lasted for 15 years (1965-1980) If you watch CNBC, you probably know who Joe Kernan is. Around 1980, he was just starting out at a small investment firm. Many years ago, he recalled what it was like back then. "no one was buying stocks, no one was selling stocks, no one even wanted to talk about stocks or the markets" Compare that to today. The word stagflation has been showing up quite often recently. That's what existed during that bear market. I'm not suggesting/predicting anything, just saying that it would be a rude awakening for investors like myself & others who've never lived through an extended bear market.
