Premarket...Penn all the way down to $77

good lesson in "price matters"

people that piled into door dash early have lost half their money, people that piled into penn at 140 similar problem

unemployment ending (unless you're actually looking for work) must have a lot to do with this stuff... for the past year these lazy pricks have been taking unemployment/stimulus money and pissing it away in regional casinos, with nothing better to do all day

Well pretty close to the same. Only problem there is on some issues might not be enough volume or only monthly instead of weekly.....

ugh sorry to hear that erb

i held on to penn to save 10% on capital gains rates and it cost me 50%

painful but not to your extent

Yeah not sure what to do now, just have to hold For now.  Will have to liquidate stocks tomorrow I imagine, really want to hold on to kohls and xom so will have to dump six ccl and cnk most likely to stay afloat

Thanks for the encouragement, I’ll have to see how bad today ends up being.  I have 180k of my own money invested and my portfolio looks like it will drop to around 230k today, maybe worse.  So it’s not the end of the world for me, just would hate to sell everything after such a huge drop.  Depending on how big the margin call is my order of liquidation would be six, ccl, cnk, kohl’s, xom.  Hopefully it doesn’t get past the first three!

Well they win...I'm about done with Penn. I don't own a ton of it but selling 3/4  of my shares for a loss. Need to get off the sinking ship. 

Will reconsider getting back in around $50. 

i don't think penn is going down to the 50s

i would hold it and sell covered calls against it... for example you can sell june 85 calls for around $4... that way you get $4/month to wait rather than taking 75

I just think Penn is one of the more manipulated stocks currently. When the stock drops 3% 1 minute into premarket hours because of a 200 share sell order, something is going on. 

 

No explanation for Apple or Amazon like w2w said. How Apple isn't a $150-170 stock right now after their last 2 earnings reports is mind blowing.
