Agree on Google. It's my favorite company in the world besides Alibaba which is higher risk but higher reward.
As a trade, Square is a option for a quick trade.
This weeks downdraft has been orderly imo meaning I see more to come. Your not seeing everyone running for the exits and volume exploding.
What do others think?
Yeah. I've started to be more cautious since the market dropped two weeks in a row after setting an all time high on 4/16. I don't think that had occurred in about six months. It bounced back nicely last week but I still reviewed my holdings and set trailing stops for each position. The stocks that I wanted to upgrade I set the trailing stop at < 5%. The better holdings I set at 10% or higher.
I am guessing this week will be a down week, as well since we are still down about 750 pts from monday opening (prior week close).
The good news is I sold the worst positions and bought back a select few at a lower price and managed to buy some of the more attractive stocks (that I didn't previously own) at a discount. Perfect market to upgrade the portfolio.
TLDR. Earlier this week I was thinking that it was the start of a steady, long term decline. Inflation numbers reinforced my fear. Today, has me more optimistic.
Agree, on GOOG. Bought a small position on slight dip recently. I'll take a pass, for now, on SQ and BABA. .
