“Very simple... When your stock holding makes the news, wait two days, then SELL SELL SELL.c

It’s so funny that you say that, cuz that’s exactly what I did! On the good side, I got extremely lucky and bought across the board literally the same week that the DOW hit the bottom in 2009. I made $150k profit (which is actually not that good compared to where the market is now.)
