The Markets Turned it Around Last Week on Friday to End the Week. Friday was a Nice Green Day in the Markets, and Another Big Beat for Me Against the S&P Index. I am Sitting Back, and Waiting for the Earnings Reports. -IndependentCandy14
Howdy Fellow Stockaholics! Much of the Same has been Happening in the Markets Recently so I haven’t been Posting as Much. It was Feeling Repetitive…Another Day, Another Beat on the S&P Index. LoL. I will Gladly Take it. Last week Was much of the Same as this Month has Been. Green Day, and a Beat on the S&P. I did have one day last week where I was in the Red, and Also got beat by the S&P Index. Yesterday was a Red Day, but I managed to Beat the S&P Index and Be Green due to the SOFI Earnings Call. Today, Was a Nice Green Day, and a Strong Rally after Yesterday’s Red Day. Not One Red Holding Today, and a Big Beat on the S&P Index Again. I Will Gladly take the Returns that Mr. Market Gave us this Month. It has Been a Stellar Month. More Earnings on Deck this Week, and the All Important FED Talk as well. -IndependentCandy14
Earnings Reports have Came in and they have been Great. AXP, XOM, and SOFI reported Great Numbers. AXP and XOM did miss on EPS and Revenue Metrics Respectively, nevertheless, the Stocks have been Rallying. I Continue to be Long in all three of these Companies. As a Reminder, XOM and SOFI are Large Material Holdings of Mine. AXP is a Small Non-Material Position in my Portfolio. -IndependentCandy14
I Did Make my Monthly Retirement Plan Contribution Today. I Increased my W-2 Base Salary for 2023, so thus, I Can Contribute More into my Retirement Plan. The Contribution is Sitting as CASH and Uninvested. Do We see some Red Days, and a Chance to Deploy! If we See some Red tomorrow Morning Pre Fed, I will Invest it all. Time Will Tell. -IndependentCandy14
