Trump is making bookoo bucks while he's in the W H. He's buying thousands of stocks like Dell, Micron and Apple then he goes out and builds them up to people to strengthen the stock.
I also think he is paying people to either...

The wars going on in various parts of the world and the tight atmosphere due to such conditions always put a great amount of strain on the stock market. If stock markets in the US or in any European country or Japan fluctuate, it...

It may be a weird way to think about it but, it is one of the ways my mind just thinks about money. When I am invested in things.
I like to drink beer. I am sure I have mentioned that a time or two here and there. Of course I...

First, last week there was a stellar earnings report from Texas Roadhouse that allowed me to cash in on a 34% return on my investment, a stock which I sold my entire position of.
It hasn't really done much today, so I think it...

Now, let me just say this right off the bat so that it is clear.
When a stock split occurs, it means NOTHING.
Okay, now that that's out of the way let me explain. Yeah, yeah, I know. I am being vague. Work with me here. I...

It happens to be a love or hate relationship that people have with Walmart stores. Many people will declare they hate it. Yet at the same, they will still shop there. Not that Walmart is the cheapest when it comes to...

Earnings calls are sometimes an interesting thing. You can, for example, beat expectations, but still not paint a rosy picture for the future and short term investors react.
I say short term investors for good reason.
As...

If I have not mentioned it before, I own shares of stock in Yum! Brands, which owns the restaurant chains Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut and The Habit Burger Grill.
It has always been an "odd" position for me in a...

No, no, no. Inflation is not over and done with. It still rose 0.4%, so inflation in October was still higher than it was in November. But it rose slower and less than expected.
Thus, the stock market rallied...

No, no. Not in the grocery store. I am talking about in the stock market. But of course I am. Because my aim is always to increase my profits and take advantage of little downward spikes in the markets to add to company's I like...

So, if my math is correct, all I have to do is make $5 a month on myLot. With that I can buy 1.65 shares of Rivian. And then just wait.
The current value of 1.65 shares of Rivian is $60.
The stock only needs to get to...

As you are probably aware, I own stock in Walmart, and for me it is a long term held position. So, today it became clear it would be a good time to add to my position as the stock tanked a bit this morning after it announced...

It is not often that I necessarily agree with the antics of Elon Musk, the CEO and founder of Tesla and Space X. I mean, what can you say about a guy who justifies shooting his car into space just because he can?

Well, not just the booze itself. Buy the companies that make it and sell it. Because one thing people do not do less of when the economy is in the tank and inflation is high is drink.
It's a fact.
In fact, even during the recent...
