    No shortage of customers at Dollar General either btw. Corona's the best thing that ever happened to them.
    Its actually nipping at an all time high today, which it set 4/16. Earnings are 5/28. I don't know how much more upside they have left. They're getting pretty pricey for a retail operation... not to mention I personally thought they were opening too many stores too fast before this Corona thing. $DLTR, (Family Dollar Stores and Dollar Tree stores), while in a hurt locker as a stock due to their merger, still provide stiff competition on basically an identical model. I'd be tempted to call DG a good short here... but one thing I learned long ago... never short a stock making all time highs.

    Cheap f's.... every other store has set up point of sale plastic shields for their employees and given them masks and gloves... not DG. Where they based out of(?)... go figure huh.

    No, I haven't looked at that one. Is it good?
    Where's Overstock btw, haven't looked at it in awhile either.
    (Just looked) $11.... ahhh... it might be ok.
    I wish I would have seen Restoration Hardware at $250 a few months back.
    So many stocks, so little time eh?

    I don't know about airlines and cruise-ships.... why chase lousy sectors hoping for a lottery ticket?
    This Corona stuff is here to stay, these sectors have a long haul ahead of them unfortunately.

    hindsight is 20/20, live & learn from this one as what happened back in recent times 1987, 2000, 2012, 2016, December 2018 ... likely good stocks will recover, all it takes is time & money.

    the index is living proof ... long haul, steady as she goes.

    all I need is another 30 years

    my 2 close HD have been pretty steady. Curbside pick up is a Hit.

    Close it at $117 prior to HD earnings.
    For no good reason, other than the way the game gets played. Another crowed trade that's too obvious.

    BTFD however.
    $103 is a good level.
    They report Wednesday, HD tommo.

    They're off the charts packed with customers fwiw.
    Everyday has been a "Sunday" for the last month.
    Sell the news... buy the dip.
    Good stocks. Lowes moreso.

    Have you looked at Park Hotels?
    Its up nearly 50% since we spoke of it last month. That was a good one. Somewhere here I wrote about back in March when it was at $6. Of course I didn't buy any :banghead:
