Ross812 Posted February 29 Posted February 29 Sold cascading calls on 2k shares of LUV from 35 to 40 before earnings in April.
aws Posted February 29 Posted February 29 I flipped the OZ I bought a couple weeks ago. It still trades at a hefty discount to their claimed NAV, but I can't pass up a nearly 50% gain in two weeks on no news. Just got kind of lucky catching a bottom on it.
E. Nashton Posted February 29 Posted February 29 Sold the last tranche of my BAC position that was bought in 2012!

longlake95 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Ya, it’s been quite the ride. Bought in 2020. Trying to water the flowers and pull the weeds here - letting winners run. Sitting on my hands, mostly, very interested to hear their commentary on current business conditions and the backlog. I think they earn +$6 this year. LL

I've been guilty of sitting on losers too long while waiting for them to come back. I think Buffett had a great quip about the stock not knowing that you own it. I was listening to a podcast yesterday from an investor, who has a concentrated book and he had a great line about not cutting the flowers and watering the weeds, but doing the opposite. Rather than throwing good money at a bad business and hoping it will turn around he said "It's much easier to give birth than it is to resurrect the dead."
longlake95 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 (edited) Agreed. I think the biggest lesson for me the last 20 years, has been to constantly re-assess if your thesis has under-shot or over-shot as the fundamentals play out over time. If you’ve under-shot like I did with HPS.a, where the business has blossomed mightly ahead of my thesis, JUST SIT ON YOURS HANDS. Continually re-assess. Easy to say, hard to do. But sure is fun. Confirmation bias can really kill your returns. Edited March 1 by longlake95
Spekulatius Posted March 2 Posted March 2 Sold some CUERVO.MX which I bought for a trade a while ago.

Red Lion Posted March 4 Posted March 4 ARES, BX, AMP, and GOOGL. all have done well for me. Would rather not sell, but I had racked up a decent size margin debt in these multiple real estate renovation projects and wanted to right myself while the markets are hot.
Paarslaars Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Sold 25% of my BYON calls as they're up 350%. Probably selling some flowers to water the weeds.
Saluki Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Trimmed a few shares of META. I still have a good mid size position in it, but other than sitting on my hands and doing nothing, I don't I have any advantage over the hordes of analysts looking at a trillion dollar stock, so I think I'm better off looking at things that are overlooked and unloved.
Libs Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Sold most of my Tesla puts that exploded this week. I'm finally in the black betting against Tesla (my white whale!).

sleepydragon Posted March 6 Posted March 6 5 minutes ago, Dinar said: Why did you sell YELLQ? Thank you. I merely trim it. I had 4% of my portfolio in it, which is a zero or multi bag situation depending on a litigation situation . After $SAVE fiasco, I have turned into a person without guts. Now I have about 2% of my portfolio in it and probably will keep holding till full liquidation.
Luke Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I have exchanged a large part of my alibaba position for tencent, reduced some prosus and added to tencent. I am planning to play it with 60% Prosus 40% Tencent as a full position and think thats optimal. My opinion on alibaba did not change but i think tencent is just the better business with better tailwinds. Small gain on the alibaba position in this short time frame.
Spekulatius Posted March 16 Posted March 16 I reduced $C a bit more on this premarket $GS bump earlier this week.
frommi Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Sold FFH after my thesis has played out and the stock has re-rated. Don't like betting on further multiple expansion.
