In either case, I'd assumed that would mean I either gain or lose money as the economic value of the options are changed into cash with the most likely outcome being that I lose money. The real headscratcher is why the asshat exercised the call to begin with. |

I picked AMZN because I used them a lot and they didn’t seem likely to go away. So far, I think they’ve outperformed most/all of my mutual funds. This makes me think I’m an investing expert now. |

If you have any mutual funds my guess is you own some Amazon.

I also moved my 401k to a stable value fund after shit hit the fan and I lost about $20,000.00. It's held fast but I'm getting ready to move it into a more aggressive investment but I don't want to do it to soon. Is it to soon?

I’m seriously just consider buying now. I don’t see this economy cratering again like it did in March. Could be wrong but doubt it

Great day. Fearing the S&P 500 drop to 140 though. Any day now.

I lost $25k in my modest 401k on the drop. I’m not worried. Timing the market to buy back in is the $1000 question. If we all knew the answer, we’d be rich. |

I moved the 401K back in February when things first started going to shit when the DJI was a little over 25,000.

Lots of bad news out today. Looks like more bargains are coming (except TSLA, they have a new stock target of close to $900). |

I know those numbers are historically bad, but they're actually much better than I would have guessed.
