    I'm really tempted to trim my TDOC and JMIA positions since they've been on such tear and are at all-time highs. But they just seem like the kind of ones you'll kick yourself for selling a year later.

    You should have sold when it peaked.

    It's as likely to be $40 as it is to be $140 next week. This is a full-on gamble at this point.

    I added to JMIA earlier and trimmed TDOC. TDOC was simply way overweight for me after the LVGO merger and recent run up. I still like it a lot.

    Seems like it may have been you forever ago that got me looking at LVGO (many thanks if so), and I sold that after it ran like 90%, only to have it run another 90% lol. Maybe i'll just trim this time.

    So for those that do the day trading and stuff of that sort, how does after hours “work”? Just wondering as I always thought trading stopped at 4 or 5 est

    For commons, lots of brokers carry after hours trading. Options trading is strictly between market hours(except a couple of ETFs)

    So as I stated earlier my RH account is for gambling, I think I’m gonna try to ride this GameStop thing to it’s conclusion unless y’all think there’s a better play

    This has been a really high level of theater.

    I'll be legit sad when it's time to just going back to watching AAPL move $2 in a day.

    Possibly. Assuming all the big production companies don’t just keep releasing on streaming services like we are currently seeing.They were on the verge of bankruptcy and raised over $750 million in capital.
