Picked up 1000 shares of KEM at 20.15 this morning. Company got another $30 million interest free advance from a customer to increase capacity. Stock is down over a dollar this morning, so added to my position.

Bought 188 shares of FTEC today @ $53.75. Long term holding, so not really caring about what it does in the next couple of months.

Still not seeing much "as you make them" I think we have a lot of keyboard commando "traders" with a few exceptions of course.

I have, surprisingly, not added/sold any of my positions this week. I'm happy with my positions, glad the Fed has shifted despite holding banks and don't want to trade the G20 talk waves. So far so good though.

However, I have been playing with after hours trades, trying to take advantage of bid/ask differences. Today my targets are EBAY, which I'm hoping to grab at 29.06 and EMN at 76.05. We'll see. Most of the time I don't get anything, and even when I do it's generally something dumb like 9 shares....where the transaction cost eliminates the discount anyway...but I'm exploring.

Doubling down on AMZN at this price. Bought 3 more shares today for just over $5k. About $1,690 per share.

I might start a speculative position with Canopy Growth (CGC). It's hanging on the 200 day. Normally I would wait to see more of a bounce, but I'll just keep a tight stop. I'll how it opens tomorrow first.

I missed the boat! I was watching it closely this morning and it quickly started down trending where I stopped watching it. I now see it's up 3%! That would have been a good reversal buy when it turned positive again. I still might start a position with a tight stop, but I'll be watching again.


Just bought it @ 34.21, just a speculative play, not much money. I'll use today's low for my stop. It's a bigger risk than I normally would take, but I didn't buy much, so it's not a big deal, just more for fun.
