Oh no! I lost $1,245 today!
OK, to be exact, it was -$1,245.51.
That neatly counteracts gain of $1,245.84 yesterday.
I have a few cents left over, as you can see. I'll add that onto the gain of $1,774.96 the day before yesterday, $902.30 the day before that, $279.75 the day before that day, and $2,887.50 on April 30th.
These days sure are more fun than some choice days, and a series of other mildly offensive days, in Jan., Feb., March to name a few months. But we hung in through it all.
It's funny that I will not ride actual roller-coasters but I don't mind this. Volatility is something I am able to take. (Though the day after MLK Jr. Day was like going through the tunnel of the roller coaster, in the dark, down a steep incline.) My tolerance is helped by things like a 50% gain on VISA in the approximate one month that it's been out.
Anyway, I was going to say that while I made and lost an identical amount today and yesterday, today the market at large was way down and yesterday it was mildly up. On May 5, it was down, and on April 30, it was down.
Does anyone else play CAPS, by the way? My score dropped a lil' today but yesterday I had one of those jewels in my cap for a little while (I think you get one when over 95 or 96, not sure.)
