I hope some of you were paying attention to (BYND). There's a lot of emotion built into this one that might allow for some fun.

Why are you clinging to it? It's a sunk cost, and just waiting forever on the hope that you don't lock in your loss isn't exactly the best decision to make TODAY. If you sold it, whatever, six months ago, and put the whole thing into an S&P 500 index fund, you'd have a tax loss to use again tax gains, and appreciation on the index fund. Instead, you're just chasing your tail hoping that you catch it. Why?

It's too early to dump it. Long-term play, at least until the Chinese market turns.

I bought a shitload of KBLB years ago at.02.. Sold it at .04 bought it back at .06 sold it at .04 . so I made some then lost some. I'm too ****ing impatient.
I thought they had a great product and I got in at the beginning. They cross silkworms with spider dna and make a super strong spider silk that the military is using for ballistic vests. Stronger than Kevlar. I talked my brother into buying 100,000 shares. He's a military guy so he said hell yeah. Well he owns those shares still and I have none. Today it closed at .2499 I had like 500,000 shares at one time. ****! |

I don't see the logic here. Let's say your stock in the company is worth -- whatever - $1,000 today. It is utterly irrelevant how much you spent to GET that stock. That is where you are today. Your choices are: 1. sell, lock in the loss (which can be used to offset taxable gains elsewhere), invest in something else, or 2. hold, waiting for...something. The stock to recover so you take no loss I guess. Or less of one. Would you be better off a year from now, or ten, if you sold today, took the loss, had the tax write off, and invested in teh S&P 500 or whatever, or continued to hold this dog of a stock? The answer is likely clear. If your stock is down, whatever, 50%, then you don't need it to go up 50%, you need it to go up 100% to get back to even. What are the chances of that? Yeah, likely not good. If the odds were good it was going to go up 100%, then it's a strong buy for EVERYONE, not just a hold for you. But are people buying? Apparently not. This is nothing more than the Disposition Effect in action. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposition_effect

Guess what order just got filled at $347.94? We'll see if it takes off, or if I got a small discount on a stock on an extended spiral heading into a crash landing...
