One Night Stand Investment

Categories: Trading

We’re gonna keep this G.

So...you met a guy at the bar. You noted that his tat was the yin to your yang. You never remembered his last name, much less his first (in reality, it was “Dude”). Then you left in the morning, panties balled up in your jacket pocket, hair…mussed.

Okay, maybe that was PG-13.

For the investment version of this one, think about a stock you just met, and fell instantly in love with. That love turned to lust. You bought at $28.12 and it went to $29.30 on 100,000 shares...and you just woke up the next day no longer in love or lust. So you sold it. Made a quick hundred grand and change and moved on.
