But it seems to me the old Peter Lynch saw that you should just buy stocks of the companies that make stuff you like wouldn’t apply here. This stock, which has the good fortune to exist during the most comically-oversupported bull market in human history, has never met an uptick in its life. Honestly, it’s rare you see any common stock so consistently suck out loud. Wow.

Good Lord, where was I going with that? I’ve forgotten. In any case, having lost 80% of my account thanks to the March 14-29 rally, I’m clawing my way back. I’m almost back to $300 billion. Elizabeth, you will be mine again, one way or another.
