Mike --- I'd love to FIRE the entire team that drug your dog and pony around... but we know that ain't gonna happen. These bozos in Washington DC are the most frustrating bunch of clowns I've ever seen my my short lifetime. I truly hate every single one of them! Both sides of the aisle!

Animal abuse is what I call it....I almost called the Humane Society..

They screw it up and then save the day....At the last dramatic second..

I was a Ron Paul guy, but even the GOP knew he would come in and clean house, so they kicked sand in his face....Too bad for us...

Yes, I am in for the long haul...No short term Trading... I look at the good days and just let the bad days ride...A crappy deal, but a deal ...

The Dog and Pony are resting now....The thing that I know is that they will all go to a 5 star restaurant on our dime and joke about it....Both parties together off Camera....Laughing at us

Man.. what a day yesterday huh!?

Still waiting for my ABT split to take affect. I dont show the ABBV stock in my account to make up for the ABT stock splitting in half. So I show a big loss (relative to me, lol).

Hopefully in a day or two it shows up.

You not only got a split -- they raised the dividend 6%.... what's not to like about that. I see they also received approval for the split off (AbbVie) to join the S&P 100 and 500 indexes. Usually that means that Mutual Funds and ETFs that mimic, or trade in, those indexes will buy those shares. That should be viewed as a positive.
