It’s funny, the stock I recently hit big on my goal was to pull it out at 1.50, did so and took 30k profit. Tanked down to 1.18 today and after reading you guys and getting some perspective I put it all back in and got it at 1.19, it closed 1.35, which was an 18k swing up for me, feels good man.

It's funny seeing peopler/news talk about the market being up or down tied to waiting on Iran to decide what it is doing. I'm in the camp even if Iran opened the strait, no fee or they disappeared entirely the impact on the market isnb't going to be that much. Assuming the rest of the world doesn't die off from lack of oil and that's not likely to happen.
As I mentioned earlier, day of find the least loss. Some were still up today. One day....VLO down 1.17& and up 52% YTD. That stuff will return to a normal hike when the strait gets straigtened out (see what I did there). My index funds go in, stay in, until it's time they are done. Now that I'm retired I really don't look at the market index daily/weekly. They will do what they are going to do. Until I get news people are jumping out of buildings at least.

Isn’t this just their reaction to the US Friday? Samsung and SK Hynix (their two index leaders) were downstream of all the AI pullbacks.
I don’t think it’s indicative of tomorrow’s opening but wtf do I know?

Hearing Bloomberg talk about it, this is partially follow through from Friday, and also because Israel and Iran are lobbing bombs again. The various Crude oil prices are also crawling up.

Seems its over for now.
Israel and US conveyed a message to Iran that there will be no further attacks if Iran does not fire again, Al Jazeera reports citing Israel Hayom sources
Iran's armed forces announce end of military operations against Israel, warn of harsher attacks if Israel resumes attacks on Lebanon, Fars reports

This is what concerns me as Israel also openly said they have not finished their military objectives in Lebanon. Sounds like they're just setting up for a couple day breather and then back to the dance.

Any of you traders have experience with IPOs? Vanguard doesn't offer IPO participation programs but I don't *think* that matters for just setting up limit orders on Friday and waiting until its available for public trading? Or is my money going to be locked out from trading for X period of time?
When I called to ask about this I got put in touch with a couple of very "green" representatives who were struggling to explain to me how it was going to work, with 1 of the kids trying to tell me it would be at least a few days before I would be able to trade SpaceX after IPO, which I am pretty sure is incorrect based on my experience on Vanguard with Palantir at IPO.

The spacex ipo is like 10x bigger and a really tiny sliver of the company is going wild. The entire IPO altogether is something like 8% of Elon’s class B shares, with basically 0 vote or control between all of them. Won’t stop people from wanting them though.
