How are the flippers losing when we are back down into the 4's again? They just pick up more cheap shares to flip in a few days and keep their core. I'm not a flipper, I have flipped some in the past but I kept a certain amount of my shares as my core, added at the dips and took profit when I decided it was time, but never ever sold enough to affect my core. I could always increase my core too as the pps went up or down. When I did take a profit, half went to my checking account, the other half went back into my brokerage account to buy at the dips, or other stocks...
