This is a small position, so it's not going to affect my account whether it jumps up or down.
I would be concerned NFLX will be weak tomorrow and then, yeah, probably spike on earnings. I am staying in $AMZN @ 1689.5 into tomorrow. Jeff Bozo is the man again, keeping me paid so far in 2019.

lol true, maybe I'll buy half at market close and the other half sometime tomorrow before earnings then. That's happened to me before where I bought the day before and then the following day it went down and then up after hours, so I basically broke even lol. I think AMZN is going to rule the world.

NFLX is raising their prices. The question is how far they will raise their content development.

Just bought some TIF.

I've never seen it rally off a price raise, always a selloff on this kind of news. This market is very odd. I seriously doubt the rally we are getting so far this year is indicative of how this year is going to play out.

Buy 1 block of a small annuity co. Increase shares to existing, and hope to get 10% gain. Rationale is retirees will be looking for immediate and fixed annuities. Disclaimer, I am evaluating my and our annuity options have a couple of quotes.
Buy 1 block of a big money center bank. Not sure why I bought this other than I used to own this co. This bank had its 15% run-up in the past 5 days. Probably due for a pullback.

I made a couple of trades yesterday. I knew KSHB took a helluva hit the last two days. I bought in at 5.20 per share and i sold it at 5.38 per share just now. I did the same for CGC. I bought in at 41.65 and sold it at 43.96 per share. Since I trade with $10,000 increments each, i made almost $1,000 profit.

Buy 100 the financial services co. @75 basis above original sell. It's too good of a stock to miss out on any runups. I have enough profit in this stock to survive a 10% down.
