A company I knew nothing about until this morning at about 4:30 -5:00am. I bought and had my son manage the sell. This is often how we trade. I usually buy something NEW in the pre-market, and then have my son shepherd it to a sale at market open. Or a little before the open.
So you just invest only under the M Fool's advice and make money!

I think the market will move sideways within a range. Look at the high fliers now then wait till there is a correction, then jump on. I have begun using option screeners and they tell me stocks that have unusual option activity. Those are high fliers.

Good for you on all accounts. I have a solar credit, major losses on the orange ranch and major losses on the packing houses. I doubt if I will pay any tax for this year or the next or next with the carryovers of deductions I cannot use. Our packing house was going to pay off all its Sunkist pension obligation (about $7M) and pay off the loan over the next few years. Our payments on the loan would be essentially the same as kicking the can down the road and just paying the minimum pension obligation each year, With that pension pay off, we would not be paying taxes for years. Not sure if that deduction would be a passthrough or just go against any packinghouse income. It would definitely carry over for several years.

Be careful. Market has priced in a trade agreement this year. Is not going to happen. New Tariffs to take effect on Dec 15 will likely be postponed, but that may not be enough. China will retaliate for bill signed by Trump supporting HK protestors.
