nice

i jumped in a bit early on RCL -- at $30 / share -- but I think they'll be fine long term

their CEO has been around for a long time so this isn't his first rodeo -- Financial Crisis, H1N1, etc.

I also got NCLH at around $7 / share so I'm up a bit on that for now.

I want to hold these for a few years and see what happens.

Hopefully this anomaly will pass in the next 6 months or so.

Nice bump on NCLH!

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is 30 stocks... 30... out of almost 700,000 world wide.


The ones complaining about massive losses are the ones that have no idea about how the stock market actually works.


Exactly, you haven't lost money until you've actually sold the stock.

I’ve been buying OIH (Vanguard Oil producers ETF) as oil prices have fallen, doubled my holdings yesterday. I’m not expecting a quick payout, but sometime in the next 10 years I figure oil will be a lot more expensive again. Plus I figure schulumberger and Halliburton (largest holdings in the ETF) can weather a couple year storm.

the question is -- is the 'new normal' earnings reality already 'baked into' the market?

Or will we see another major series of drops when earnings season arrives and the earnings reports are abysmal?

personally i think most of its baked in already but we may see some lower levels when 'reality' hits.

maybe another broader -10% to -15% when the reality hits.

just a guess though -- I'm just a 'mom & pop' investor who reads the WSJ daily

The market is rebounding now in anticipation of the $2 trillion stimulus package. However, it's not going to last. I think earnings for this quarter are already priced in. However, the way things are looking, most companies are going to have terrible earnings next quarter and the quarter after. Just heard from a large yacht builder (one of the largest in the Country), they just closed their plant today, for 30 days. It could be longer than 30 days......most companies are facing this. I don't think it will be until the 4th quarter that most companies start becoming somewhat normal and somewhat profitable again.

Based on today's trading, the 1 and 3 month US treasury bills now have negative yields - -.01% for the 1 month and -.03% for the 3 month. The 5 year note yields a whopping +.5%. You can lend your money to the government for 30 years for 1.342%

Found out I was being furloughed last week, undefined length of time, so the $20k I had primed to dump into RCL got re-allocated to living expense...

Not. Happy.

Stocks Tumble Into Close As Bernie Sanders Threatens To Hold Up Coronavirus Package

Stocks tumbled into the bell after Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) became the latest lawmaker to threaten to hold up the coronavirus stimulus package "until stronger conditions are imposed on the $500 billion corporate welfare fund."

"Unless Senators Graham (R-SC), Sasse (R-NE) and Time Scott (R-SC) drop their anti-worker objections to fast-tracking the emergency coronavirus legislation, I am prepared to put a hold on this bill until stronger conditions are imposed on the $500 billion corporate welfare fund," Sanders said over Twitter.

Graham stated that there are incentives built into the package that makes it so that certain workers can make more money off of govt. than going back to work, feeling it would slow the economic comeback.

I can't wait to see Berkshire Hathaway's next 13F. They've got billions in cash waiting for opportunities like what we saw this month. I would be surprised if they didn't make some huge purchases.
