I would like to contribute the document I make when investing and while invested to help ease my own mind, and make informed decisions. This i-hub board has been hugely helpful, so I hope this post is helpful to anyone new thinking of buying/selling/holding. I’m new to i-hub. That being said, I accept I am human and may make errors. Please correct me if needed to allow the best possible decisions of the readers. This is as up to date at the time of this posting.
