Individual Stock Performance for the Week of March 1 – 5, 2021: It Wasn’t Very Pretty…

This week saw some drops in the market in the middle of the week more than wiping out any gains made on Monday or Friday. The Dow industrial average ended basically flat with a 0.06% gain for the week whereas the S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended down 0.89% and a whopping 3.73% respectively.

I primarily use Webull for individual stocks and while my portfolio there is still up overall, this past week it took a bit of a beating and ended up down over 2% for the week.

If you are interested in opening a Webull account, they do offer a couple of free stocks for signing up and making an initial deposit. I’d appreciate using my affiliate link to sign up.
