Here's my take

Posted by: Lib84 on Nov 20, 10:37 in response to lapuckfan's post I don't think re-investing pays off...

It is worth it, but it has definitely taken a hit in credibility.

If you reshort, the accessible cash you acquire up can go to other stocks and you can make profit off that freed up cash.

The reason the credibility is hit was because reshorting was a no brain procedure during 'no commission' weekends. But with that being scrapped, the effectiveness is definitely diminished.

Is it ever advantageous to re-invest in something? Let me explain CP7x77 Nov 20, 08:59

If I read this correctly... eyescovered Nov 20, 09:19

This is my take too. Covering and re-shorting shorts is fine, if you want to free up cash and don't mind paying commission. RogerMore Nov 20, 10:17

This is quite inaccurate. First of, selling from a long while it's sinking, typically helps on your daily profit, Secondly, the cash you Facto Nov 20, 10:37

But that's not what he's asking. He is asking whether selling a stock, banking the profits and rebuying the stock immediately is a good idea {nm} RogerMore Nov 20, 13:54

The advantage would be to shelter in case the price goes up. {nm} CP7x77 Nov 20, 10:37

I would agree, but if you make more than enough to cover the commission and still pull profit, it's still good for shorts, but... CP7x77 Nov 20, 14:23

Sure, look at a movie like Bruno it was easy to take the profits from the short and then reshort from all the bad numbers. damenchipguy Nov 20, 14:28

Seriously, 2012 will never go anywhere near that low... You still have some work to do before you are fully seasoned, it seems :-)) {nm} Facto Nov 20, 22:14

Got that right I am dumping at 140, holding way better than I thought. It looks like lack of DC instead of quality of movie {nm} damenchipguy Nov 21, 14:41
