DJT performance today is underwhelming, up 6%. Many Trump trades were up many times that. So, those that took gains in the last few days were right to do so. If you shorted this sucker when it was trading in 50s, you did fine to close today.Hope nobody’s shorting this stock today…..
None in this forum. It would be interesting to see how the stock trades going forward, given so many took their gains in the last four days.
Hanging on to a few Trump trades did not feel great the last few days. Can not wait to see how they would open tomorrow - I am sure I do not enough.

Thanks Mike. I have near full position in CGDV, with a bit of room but not enough. (Incidentally, its Quality score in M* factor profile is low, though higher than that of GQHPX, the fund that has Quality in its name. I think I may have to rethink my looking Quality in isolation. May be low quality combined with low volatility produces magic!. I always discounted equity volatility in benign credit conditions but may be there is something I am not considering.)@BaluBalu, FWIW, I really like the Capital Group ETFs, particularly CGDV for LCV. Not sure what 'quality factor' means so I can't say it "overweighs" it.
I own it in six figures. My dilemma is what to replace with and I want to replace it with one ticker. SPY is always too expensive to my eye, though it made money within six months after every time I bought it, and I never sold it. MRFOX is a value fund and so may be I should replace it with a value fund. I would appreciate if anyone knows of a value fund that overweights Quality factor.CPAI is systematic, a diversifier, and defensive. Its aim is capital appreciation. It uses multiple machine models and AI to select the stocks while adjusting to different factors to seek outperformance to the market. It is new to the portfolio. (BTW I sold 60K of MRFOX but still own 20K.)

Jeffrey M Colon, Unplugging Heartbeat Trades and Reforming the Taxation of ETFs, University of Chicago Business Law Review, Vol 2.1 (2022?), Section VII.Recognizing the potential benefits to ETFs and their shareholders of employing custom baskets, but also being cognizant of the potential for abuses, the SEC now permits virtually unfettered use of custom baskets. However, ETFs using these custom baskets must adopt and implement detailed written procedures that “set forth detailed parameters for the construction and acceptance of custom baskets that are in the best interest of the [ETF] and its shareholders . . . .” These written procedures are internal, non-public documents. Rule 6c-11 also permits ETFs to do heartbeat trades with non-APs on the day of a reorganization, merger, conversion, or liquidation.
https://www.bogleheads.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=404611As an illustration of how well ETFs can avoid capital gains, Vanguard has had only three years in which its diversified stock ETFs distributed a gain.
Vanguard FTSE All-World Ex-US Small-Cap distributed small capital gains in 2009-2010, its first two years. It started near the 2009 market bottom and doubled in its first year, so it didn't have many stocks with losses to sell to meet index changes.
Vanguard International Dividend Achievers Index distributed a 6% capital gain in 2021, when it changed indexes and was thus forced to sell a lot of stock.
Among sector funds, Vanguard Consumer Staples ETF distributed a gain in 2004, its first year, and REIT Index has frequently distributed gains.

Then, Fidelity Capital Market Services (FCMS) goes to the market for domestic securities to purchase securities for reinvestment two days before the payable date. Fidelity purchases as many shares as possible on a best-efforts basis, determines the average share prices, and then reallocates those shares proportionately to our clients. The reinvestment price is the average price of all shares purchased, which is determined by the market.
