I stop loss at 15%....sometimes.
I usually take it case-by-case though depending on how volatile the stock is. I have one at 15.6% loss that I’m holding onto because I’m optimistic I will recoup that in the coming weeks. |

Yeah. If you’re not outrunning the return on your debt service you need to just service the debt from a pure mathematical perspective. But there is some value in diversification. Over time a diversified portfolio should outrun debt service for sure so you need to be a little patient. But at minimum yeah your return should be higher than your interest rate.

Where there's winners there's losers. I do own a bunch of ZOM which happens to be on the list so I'm gonna have to keep an eye on it. |

I recognize there's a benefit of investing if you can outperform your mortgage, but I found a huge intangible value in paying off my house. I ran outside and yelled to the world that I would never be homeless as long as I paid my property taxes that cost more than an apartment in a low-cost city.

I had avoided pennies for the most part but after talking more with a couple of friends who dabble with pennies for. Iberia. Ickes I’ve gotten into some. So far they’ve been better plays for me than more name brand oil, casino, airline, steel, energy stocks.
My current swings are ASTI, KWBT, hcmc, and aitx. Now....looking back, I had good entry points on gevo and a couple of others I bailed on for$1 profits and left 10 on the table. Live and learn. I’d like to learn how to read charts better. I appreciate the thoughtful advice on here. A lot to learn. |
