It's a crazy, stormy afternoon here in Portland, but it was all sunshine and roses for the Fun Fund today. My Citi stock came out of the gate strong, plateaued a bit, but then continued an upward climb. I did put in a sell order at $4.50, but our little pony did not get quite that high. Instead, Citi closed at $3.80, up $0.76 a share. Not too shabby. The people who track such things say that Citi continues strong in after-hours trading (which I am not yet hip to so much).
I think my current online broker (Sharebuilder) kinda hosed me out of some free trades that I should have gotten for opening an IRA with them. They gave me three free automatic investment trades, which is a service I don't use. The certainly rekindles my desire to get a new online broker. Probably have to wait until the beginning of the month though.
So here's where we are:
C Citigroup $3.80 30.000 $114.00 (less $9.95 comission)
Still planning on holding Citi until earnings come out on Friday. But if it hits $5 this week I'll probably dump it then.
