Overall, this past month has been mostly good. Up about 9% overall.

HEI is up to 170ish a share now. For the first time in 14 years, I've sold a few shares, then buy when they dip in the 140-150 range. I've left my HEI-A shares alone.

AAL was finally reasonably positive for me, so I just offloaded them and took the profit. It was still a pretty small investment, I just wanted them off my books.

Nothing new for now. I'll just sit on some cash, and let everything else ride.

Just sold Tesla 162.50 calls that I bought 3 days ago for $1.04 for $16.95 each. It's been a hell of a week.

I went cash before close in my swing trading account. I was all in on GME today and sold when it hit $23.06. Really happy.

My Fidelity chart hasn’t updated to reflect the 15% gain today. But super pumped. The last month was exclusively swapping GME and BBBY back and forth. From $1949 to over $5K since early January.



I don’t do options because I’d lose it all.

2 year anniversary of the buy button being removed.

It’s also the 2 year anniversary to the day of when GME, AMC, BBBY, and many others became tokenized. Crazy coincidence.

Those tokenized shares we were told were backed 1:1 with “real” shares in exchanges like FTX.

Those “real” shares counted as “locates” in the world of shorting.

Surely FTX and others actually bought the underlying shares that are backed 1:1. Surely.

Bed Bath and Beyond issued a memo yesterday afternoon for all store managers to remove and destroy all in-store gift cards immediately.

I checked today and was told “they are out of stock “.

Typically they would continue to sell these before officially filing for bankruptcy. All gift cards are good to be redeemed at BBBY and Baby. I wonder if that’s the problem right now.

 

[Turfie]

I’m confident I would have held from $3 to $6.

Proud of this one. I sold 217 GME shares at $23.06 on Friday.

I waited out Monday and Tuesday.



Yolo’d back on GME at $20.65. And got to purchase 240 shares with the same money. That was at 2:36 pm.



Just happy.

Google and Amazon say good morning.

Google and Amazon say good morning.

And their earnings this afternoon said goodbye

This recent pop, especially in NASDAQ, gives me a really uneasy feeling. It all seems really forced.

And their earnings this afternoon said goodbye

Good thing I sold off a decent amount of my Google shares earlier today, thinking it was a bit too much of a spike. I'll jump back in because I still think their long term path is good.

AMZN, I left alone, and I'm not worried about profits being a bit lower than expected, they are still growing like crazy, their AWS crushed it again.. they're still a relatively cheap buy now.

 

[NewOrleansFan]

AMZN bad earning is partially due to their investment with Rivian and they also counted their losses because of the recent layoffs and cost cutting measures in this earning instead of spreading them out to this year. They would’ve beat.

Had $15 sitting in my brokerage account. Bought 6 shares of LUCY at $2.25 yesterday. Sold today at $2.32.

Made $0.42. After paying short term gain taxes. That’s $0.27 profit.

Boom

History doesn’t always repeat itself, but it rhymes.

Revlon and BBBY


Revlon (top) filed paperwork that included bankruptcy talk (blue arrow).

BBBY also took a major dip on January 6th when it also filed paperwork with bankruptcy included.


This is what BBBY did. I find this stuff fascinating. If it keeps up then BBBY should retest it’s recent closing high of $5.25 in the next 3 weeks.
