Recently I have consolidated all my assets in Fidelity and I'm working on simplifying my portfolio. My 401k, IRA, and HSA are all invest in total market mutual funds which is…

If you are with Schwab and trade Section 1256, check your gains/losses!
Guys. I never imagined a major broker could be this bad. I was looking at the gains from my section 1256 contracts this morning and realized that Schwab recorded all gains as short-term gains. I contacted customer support and the representative told me that “when you short a position, it's always short-term gain”. Which is…

Moving all SGOV into MGK/VOO
Hi all Would it make sense to move all my bond funds into MgK/VOO? The way I see it this looks like a sustained run where only a black swan event would stop this run? The economy is doing great, rates are likely to come down, defaults are not out of whack. Is there any…

Will the cannabis industry (MSOS) ever take off?
Someone please give me a reason to be excited. I'm not. Going from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3 will take months. Even afterwards, weed will still be illegal federally so every grower will have to sell in the state where the weed was grown since it can’t cross state lines. All states that get legalization…

Should I cut my losses?
I have a a play account that I opened a couple of years ago, where I made a serious mistake in buying a meme stock (CEI) on 3/8/2022 somehow thinking I’d make a quick buck or two. To be specific, I bought $15K of CEI and it’s down 99.78%. Literally a day later that stock…

Why not disclose Chubb investments but disclose Oxy
Brk did not disclose that they are buying Chubb from last 3 Qs. They did not want prices to shoot up if they disclose (as it happens with any investment Brk buys). This makes sense.
