What is your current opinion of FB? When it dropped 20% in July I bought 50 shares at $172. Thought I was in good shape when it rallied back to $185. But then it tanked again so I bought 50 more at $166. Bought 50 more at $160. Now I'm holding 150 shares and it has dropped to $154. I'm stuck for $1,800. What do I do? Cut my losses and run? Or hold and pray???
What are you holding?

Goose,
I am on the other side of buck here but thats ok. I think it is going to be more difficult for FB to grow to the numbers they have in the past unless they find some new way to grow that I cannot see. I think their demographic is going to decline and their PE is pretty high even now for what their growth might be over the next few years.
I am a bit perplexed why you did such tight adds from your initial buy? I probably would not have bought a second time until it dropped 15-20%, then added.

Wallstreet: It had already dropped just over 20% and I was convinced it was a very good buying dip timing. I will just have to hold it I guess. It's funny how I throw this cash all around in the Markets but only bet $100 sports games.

BTW, speaking about parking cash, do you think October 11th was a serious enough correction overall? Safe enough to stop sideline hoarding and get a little something back into the game?

I just have a really hard time doing any research because I feel the market is so overvalued and a global slowdown is happening and our economic "boom" is phony pumped up with debt and financial engineering. I just dont see what the MSM is seeing about our economy. If things were so good and the economy so strong then why are we hitting historic highs in debt and running a HUGE deficit? Why is that dope Trump so afraid of normalizing interest rates and needing to try and play media games to keep the market sentiment up?
I dont see this at all...I think the market is overvalued by 60-70% maybe more, there are so many issues and it seems like the way the market isnt crashing is the hope that the FED will rescue and step in on a drop and the way corps are leveraging to prop up share prices via debt and buybacks. I do not see much signs of any structural economic improvement, especially with the fake unemployment rate being so low why are average earnings doing so poorly? The "jobs" being created are garbage no future jobs where wealth to the consumer does not materialize, so someone try and tell me what in a real sense is so strong to warrant these levels and what how can we ignore the blaring global issues out there?

Hey Wall YECO down to $4.70s think of all the cash you couldve made via puts or shortJOIN THE DARKSIDE
My 70% lower call came faster than I thought. I doubt there were puts on that stock, the float is so small and getting shares to short would be impossible.
Those shipping stocks are so depressed, lots of small small cap companies that did multiple RS to survive, ANY sort of momentum higher could take them much much higher. Look at TOPS market cap even now!

This is a rare valuable article from that right wing, gold loving, Trump kissing site zerohedge. It explains part of a reason why I feel the market is DRAMATICALLY overvalued...this is not a biased piece, rather an insight as to the calculation of stock prices and why higher rates actually mean something-

I was going to come here and say I think you get filled at 8.50 and you did it yourself! I hope it goes well and that you make out on the trade. I think I saw they are going to start trading on that crap hole NYSE this week right?
