Sold!
Me and restaurants and retail have never been friends. No ridicule here. They are definitely down, but is the knife still falling?I believe these bottom feeders got sold off for tax loss harvesting and might be good buys in the mid term (6 months max, likely less). I may buy some or all in small amounts.
Opinions or ridicule welcome.

I went sorta big (but not Z9 big) into oil and gas, that sector certainly got a boost.

More cash than ever - I have to say my accounts are a lot more stable, trade off being less growth and slightly lower month end beginning pay days. Kind of enjoying it.
MLPX and MLPA were the larger allocations.Not saying I am right, just answering the questions
The technicals seem to show they have capitulated. Doesn't mean they will go up, but if there is good news they have a better chance to outperform.
I normally don't like these segments either, but they would seem to benefit most from the soon to be announced vote buying stimi checks.
I would be interested in what you see in O&G. I fail to see any value there currently. I agree in 1 - 2 years that will be the place to be. If you wanted to share any tickers publicly or privately I would be all ears - I generally love that sector.
I also have a lot of cash.
I do like pipeline MLP's in an ETF to simplify taxes. Especially with falling rates.MLPX and MLPA were the larger allocations.

Not saying I am correct, just collecting the divi's (no K-1's) and some small upward push, maybe winter or maybe the new MPG regs...........
I agree. I never try to catch the bottom. On a short term basis at least they have been rising again, and the technicals align with that.I've tried to catch a falling knife before with mixed success. Buying retail or restaurant stocks right now would be like (warning - attempt to use a metaphor here!) trying to catch a falling anvil.

I've decided, $10-15K month is OK from the market, we spend $6-7K max and our SS, pensions, etc is more than spending. Don't tell the kids. I was worrying too much, but it might be the caffeine.I do like pipeline MLP's in an ETF to simplify taxes. Especially with falling rates.

You need to take a class on how to spend more. I need that class also. Let me know if you find one.I've decided, $10-15K month is OK from the market, we spend $6-7K max and our SS, pensions, etc is more than spending. Don't tell the kids. I was worrying too much, but it might be the caffeine.

Oh, I know how to give money away. I just need the skills to transition from being such a "thrifty" person.I am more than happy to send you both an account number. Or a gift registry if you prefer.
Last winter, I ran into a friend at the airport, boarding the same flight from ORF-DEn that I was on. He’s a retired UAL Captain and a big skier. He was heading out to spend a couple of weeks skiing.You need to take a class on how to spend more. I need that class also. Let me know if you find one.
