You're welcome.
Anyone who felt like they missed the boat on Portola (PTLA) could find a nice jumping in point now. Earnings conf. call yesterday, ramping up for production for an end of June approval for the first of their 2 drugs in clinical trials. I averaged down a wee bit yesterday, picking up another 100 shares at $37.35. Could be looking at $45-$50 per share or higher by the end of June.

I almost bought it last year. My finger was on the button and I decided not to. Oh, well.

My TTWO stock has been on a nice run. I've had that stock for at least a decade and it's been a nice investment.

On the other side of the table, my SSW stock has been killing me. I'm down 50 percent. I keep buying to dollar cost average because I keep reading that it's going to come back, but I'm about at my max for it. I can't figure out if I'm buying a bargain or if I'm on a sinking ship (pun intended). On the positive side, the dividend yield is nice if I keep buying, assuming that the company doesn't disappear beneath the waves.

Dammit rain, I gave you the lead on it. If you had bought 1 million shares you'd have $160 million dollars.

I spent it buying a mid-sized Caribbean island that was pure folly.

Damn brother, I owe you a steak dinner or bottle of champagne or both! Based solely on your post, I started doing research on these and ended up buying 500 shares of Portola at $37.88. Kept averaging down every time it got below my entry point. Ended up with 1000 shares at $37.66. They just got a drug approval about an hour ago and the price skyrocketed. It's around $55 now, I'm up around $18,000 so far, and I'm holding because the other drug they have in clinical trials is even more likely to get approved than the one that got approved today.

Nice work, and THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

Are you holding any?

You're welcome. I will probably sell 25% since I purchased a good chunk pretty low and let the rest ride. I think there's more good news to come but there will probably a little volatility until that news comes out. Still surprised there hasn't been any news on andexanet alfa and we are into late Q2

Conference call at 4:30eastern might provide more clarity on Andexanet. I think it will be more good news, and if you crunch the numbers, I think this stock has a lot more room to run. Congratulations on your gains, and thanks again so much! I'm going to hold this for a year from my entry, at which time I believe your tip will pocket me over $50K.

Back to investing.

I am self employed and am needing to set up an additional Roth IRA. I have one through a company a buddy of mine works for. I told him I'd give it a shot. It's meh. I'm going to do one that works on my terms.

Since this is self directed, I'm looking for the following:
1. Lowest overhead/fees - cost essentially. I won't be running a lot of trades so I'm not as concerned with commission, but I need the cost to be low.

2. Convenience - I'm busy as ****. I need to make something happen with a low time commitment. I'm disciplined enough I don't necessarily need direct deposit, but it wouldn't be a bad look. I just don't want to **** with this thing during the busy season.

Anybody have experience with any companies out there?

So you have a ROTH IRA already but want another one? This is a bit confusing as your total contribution limit for the year won't change by adding another one. I'd just up your contribution to your work one if that's the case, to max it out.

Vanguard probably meets what you want. Numerous, low cost funds with excellent track records.

If you are unsure or don't want to make many moves, simply buy into a target date fund and it resets your allocation (stocks/bonds) for you as you age.
