I don't think we will be buying really soon here so I am really considering dropping it into stocks/index funds if the market drops much more and riding it out for a little while. It could bring in a chunk of money. Would you do it?
Yeah, don't take risk with something you need in the relative short term.

I'm wondering if maybe Gilead's news could have put it back. Or that Israeli company's news. It'll be a race to market if it even works. If it goes back up tomorrow I'll do a little profit taking since I'm still up 10 percent in two days. [Reply]
IBIO, for those that don’t know, owns the facility the COVID vaccine will be manufactured in, regardless of who gets it approved first.
It’s currently trading at $1.40 in AH, with volume and room to explode tomorrow in PM or open. Some looking for $4 - $10, similar to the $CODX run yesterday.
I got in at .22 and made the most money in a single day I’ve ever made trading. If you’ve got a little cash to spare, it’s not a bad idea to bet on this horse. [Reply]

I might guess it’s people realizing that even if they ultimately have an effective vaccine, it won’t be ready to come to market for at least a year and there are plenty of other competitors who may very well beat them to market. [Reply]

I think this is going to get worse via panic when it starts spreading in the US or just because of the unknown of how bad it's going to drag the global economy down for at least the next 2 quarters or even year.
Only 4 out of the last 26 corrections went past 20%. I remember us bouncing off 20% like it was a force field in 2011 and 2018. I'll go with the stats/odds? over my gut and start buying the dip today.
SCHX - Schwab Dow Jones US Large Cap
VIGI - Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation
Maybe add to TTD or VEEV. Pick up a beat down cloud SAAS stock?
I'll have to pick through my watchlist. [Reply]

I think so too. I think we are a little more than halfway through [Reply]
