Today is a good example of why you have to be very careful in the market

hind sight is 20/20. But what happened in the past doesnt exactly apply to the future. It would be a mistake to draw linear conclusion that it would happen. There are a lot of levers that are being pulled so that you really cant draw conclusiions from it.

Ok Boomer...

Google +$112 today
Amazon +$58 and then +46 after the bell
Tesla +$31 and then $71 after the bell

Time to change the OP to "Today was the day you leave your fears behind."

GDP down > 4% for the 1st quarter.

What do you think it will be for the second quarter?

How are any of these the reason why you shud be careful? Amazon reports earnings tomorrow. What does that have to with GDP? People are buying goods via amazon. Close the malls for all I care. I dont shop at sears.

Again...this is changing of the guards. Tesla is booming while ford is shuttering. Who gives a crup about ford or gm?

When I was 18 I started working at Home Depot. Everyone over 40 hated their jobs, they all were pissed that Bob Nardelli was running the company into the ground. I was looking for advice on stocks and 401K. Every adult at Home Depot said don't buy stock, don't worry about your 401K, Nardelli will bankrupt this company. Then 2008 happened and stock dropped to $16.00 or so. Everyone ran around like Chicken Little screaming the sky is falling. Instead of investing I went out and drank away my paycheck at the bars and clubs. For 8 years I invested very minimally in the company stock purchase program because thats what the older, wiser employees suggested I do. Now that $16 stock from 2008 was at $250 in February and I could have had a VERY sizable investment that could be helping me live a very comfortable life. What I learned from this is scared money never makes money, and when the market is down and the opportunity presents itself, it can't hurt to make some smart investments with your expendable income. I'm up $8,000 so far and had I listened to a good many of the people on this site I wouldn't even have that much right now.
 
This. Exactly this. No doubt covd19 is a variable. Its an excuse for people who isnt in the game. David Groggins once said: 100 men goto war. 10 shouldn't be there. 80 are just targets. 9 do most of the fighting. 1 is a warrior.

During times like these, it pays to be warrior. GE sucks, P&G sucks? Move on. Buy the heavy hitters. Netflix, Amzn, Tsla, google. Buy them when the elevator drops. Have the balls to get on. IT-PAYS.

I'm taking the opportunity for risks. I've bought about 15 stocks with a potential upside of 500-800%. If 8 of the 15 companies even come back to a fraction of what they once were I will profit. You would have to purposely try to lose money right now. I could cash out my profits right this second and cover almost 80% of my original investment and I risk more than that when I go to a casino.
