Black Swans FTW
What you looking to buy?
Nothing quite yet, I'm already long on everything I want to be long on, dividend paying equity

I'm keeping my powder dry otherwise, because the Corona panic could have some significant value to yield yet

The pandemic is just getting warmed up, if it breaks out, that panic will make this panic look like calm

Bear in mind how inflated the prices were to start off with, -11% is not that much in the grand scheme of things
Wouldn't it have been better to sell everything a week ago when it was high and buy something stable like gold then wait for everything to crash and rebuy everything at the bottom of the slump?
Gold is up on where it was at the beginning of the month.

I've already been taking profits, in expectation of Corona panic

None the less, I wouldn't sell everything, are you selling Amazon at $1883.00 ? AAPL at $273 ? LMT at $384 ?

All these sorts of stocks are still way up just from 2019, if they take a big dip, don't sell, buy more

Also bear in mind dividends paid, if a stock is paying you to own it, the stock price is not the only reason to hold

I'm already holding as much gold as I care too, it's a question of allocation

I'm heavily invested in Boston Bruins, Nashville Predators and Minnesota Wild to win tonight.
I've also got $10 on the Leafs.

Calle Rosen is in the line up, so the Loafs are going with 7 defensemen.

I've got all my calls and puts in place, so my strike prices are already dialed in

Still no Soupie.
Matthews hasn't scored in 3 so it's time for him to get a couple.

Andersen hasn't really been the problem, when the team shows up in front of him, he's fine.

If they don't show up, no goalie can save them

This is not really about the D nor the G, it's all about puck management by the forwards, or lack thereof

See, that goal is not on Andersen, everybody is just standing around like deer in the headlights, Fredo has no chance

Good high tempo start to the game so far.
