All the dividends were reinvested back into the stock to help it grow over time

Her initial purchase was 100 shares at 31.962 on 1/6/2021

So why don't they calculate the dividend reinvestment into the end result ??

STUPED computers!

Yeah, that's a pet peeve of mine. If you buy $1,000 of stock and it pays at 10% dividend and doesn't change in price, then reinvesting dividends will report that you have a return of 0% when it's really 10%.

I suppose since you paid taxes on the dividends that were reinvested it’s technically not a gain. However, I have the same annoyance since I just want to be able to glance at my brokerage account and get a good picture of how much return I’ve had on my original investment.

Yeah, that's a good point about taxes. So there's probably no perfect way that a brokerage could report it without knowing a lot of stuff about us that we don't want them to know.

It just seems like it should be a problem that's been solved, and it hasn't.

Good reminder to pump those investment accounts in red years to gain a significant compounding interest advantage and savings for the future. These large red years don't happen as often as you think. It can be hard mentally for people to look at their account and see the decline. My passive investing into my 401k/IRA are down 19% from their all-time highs but I am looking to invest even further now as my gains for the future will be greater.

Hope this helps someone sock away a little more!

I saw an article the other day that said that the median error of stock forecasting by the major Wall Street firms was something like 8 percentage points. So that basically means that they're off by nearly the entire amount of the average annual return.

I'm liking 2023 so far. I was hoping that the market would do a reset at year end, and maybe we'll get that.

I do think that the market is trying to run a year ahead, so I think it'll be better than the news indicates if there's an expectation that 2024 will be back to normalcy. I'll bet that I'm right, plus or minus eight percentage points.

Yeah, for all the doomsday talk I've read . . . it's not a terrible start. At least, Apple hasn't gotten down to the level where I want pick it up at. Is below $100 asking too much?

So are you usually buying in the pre market and selling same day after it moves a bit? What’s the average you gain each day when you pick correctly?

i buy premarket as well as throughout the day.

Actually I've been playing both off their buy zones.

For SOXS below 32.50 is buy zone. 31 and below is MONEY

For SOXL $9.50 or below is easy MONEY

If you have a platform where you can put up two charts side by side and watch them both you can play them easy. They move exactly opposite. Watch RSI and bottom points for entries.

Quick in and out trade this morning. Bought XPON at $2.22. Had to leave the computer so put a limit order in which executed at $2.45. Looks like I could have got a bit more had I been watching, but not bad for holding it an hour.

I hope one of the young guys sees this. Many it's crazy what starting early can do. I wish I started much earlier.
