  1. We may have to retire later than we planned.
  2. I will not be surprised if the season gets cancelled, but am praying that it does not. If the season does get cancelled, at least we will have each other.
  3. I am seeing a lot of "bargains" today. Taking a significant position in XLU -- utilities ETF with yield around 3%. Also adding to "death" portfolio and selling QQQ puts at $175. Is anyone else buying, and if so, what are you buying? I
  4. I continue to build positions in funeral homes and cemeteries. It's a low volatility sector that could get a huge bump fairly soon, and I think that other investors may be beginning to pile on. Two of my three positions were up today. Not sexy like tech, but more grounded.
  5. I am taking a very close look at NS. I think that it's been oversold, but there is risk of its customers defaulting.
  6. Stocks that I am buying tomorrow: CSV SCI STON
  7. Based on my lack of confidence in the powers that be, I am looking at companies that operate funeral homes and cemeteries. https://frugalfortunes.com/funeral-home-stocks-death-care-trends/
  8. Thank you. I sold a put on this last week at $130.
  9. I placed an order to sell a June put on MMM at $130 -- nice premium and I would be happy to own the stock at that price.
  10. That sounds like a good one to look at. I want to try to figure out how much of their revenue comes from the mask business.
  11. I am deep in these sectors, but even deeper in REITs and cash. Like you, I will be looking for bargains next week. I wish that the manufacturer of Purell was a public company.
  12. Tomorrow will be a big day, and I am not optimistic.
  13. Welcome to TD. Nice first post.
  14. I think that the signings of Pineda and Odorizzi also suggest that the Twins provide an environment where players want to stay.
  15. Moderator note -- please stay on topic. If you want to complain about the site then please do so in the Minncentric forum. http://twinsdaily.com/forum/13-questions-about-minncentric/
  16. Moderator note -- there has been a lot of discussion in this thread that directly or indirectly characterizes other posters as attacking Rosario. This leads to squabbling and away from discussion of the issues raised bu the original post. This thread is going to be carefully monitored going forward and infraction points will be issued to those who want to continue to squabble about who said what instead of what is true.
  17. I don't blame Buxton for being angry or the Twins for making a business decision. I would rather focus on the potential upside for both parties. As I recall, when this came up in an earlier thread a lot of people came to the view that it would be good for everyone if Buxton used his anger to fuel improved performance, especially at the plate. It seems to me that his batting performance improved greatly this year. His OBS of .827 was by far the best of his career -- but he had only 271 ABs. I think that Buxton has the tools to be be a huge star, but only if he can reduce his time on the DL. Is there any other star player, past or present, who has crashed into outfield walls harder and/or more often than Byron? Next year I would like to see an angry Buxton playing in at least 150 games and, after that, a long term contract. But if Buxton is not going to commit to being more careful with walls, I wonder if it might be better to trade him before his next collision. And I sure wish that someone would work with Buxton on his bunting skills. With his speed, he would be scary if he could bunt more effectively.
  18. I want to face the Yankees in the postseason next year and every other year, and that the front office and the coaching staff need to focus more on building a team that can beat the Yankees. I hope for better pitching, better situational hitting and better defense. And Buxton needs to be more careful when he is close to the wall. I think that a healthy Buxton would have helped a lot.
  19. Great article! I am drinking your Kool-Ade.
  20. Here is an article on a national media site that talks about the history yet seems hopeful for the Twins: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-yankees-always-have-the-twins-number-will-this-postseason-be-different/
  21. Great article. Lewis seem to making the most of this opportunity. It also sounds like there are a lot of fielding errors by our AFL affiliate.
  22. Great article about a great human being. I hope that Jake makes the Show.
