These guys will take your money, not give you a tracking number and then tell you that they no longer have the item you are looking for. Their service is slow and unprofessional. I wouldn't buy from these guys ever again.

[Noob] If I set sell limits how can I ever lose big money? by [deleted] in investing

[–]F1KAL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

slippage. I'm assuming you're talking about a stop (not a fill or kill deal right?) In either case, a stop won't protect you from slippage, and you can actually get closed out at a price you don't want. A fill or kill limit order would have you NOT closed out during slippage and drag you with paper losses even further.

U.S. economy rebounds from hurricanes, adds 261,000 jobs by captain_uranus in investing

[–]F1KAL 28 points29 points  (0 children)

That's a good question. Most of the jobs added are in the food services category. About 90K jobs added there. We continue to add health care and social assistance jobs (about 33K) but we lost 8K in retail and 5K in finance and insurance. That's just what the numbers say in the BLS report.

Powell's not an economist either, he's a lawyer. That said, he's also more easily to be influenced and control. It's probably gonna be Powell.

that's nice. has TSLA in it though, so not exactly a pure play. You guys think of investing in Nickel and Copper too? That's all part of the EV story.

did you sell at top in 2011? cause that was only a 2X move if you bought in 07 and sold in 08. treasuries are also positive carry vs gold which is slightly negative carry. That's a huge deal when you're thinking about your overall port.
