Stocks

So, I’ve been dabbling in the stock market and need some advice.

First, short selling.
I am on the WeBull app, which makes shorting a stock easy.
When I short a stock, the price that appears when I initially confirm the short is the maximum amount I want to short, correct?. Anything sold for less than that amount with the difference from the original short is the profit, correct?

Second, any tips on stocks that might jump up in the next 3-6 months. I am not necessarily looking to be a day trader, just a month(s) trader. I am looking to invest a few hundred dollars, so if I make $50 in the next few months on the sale I’d be happy.

Third, thanks for any and all advice!

Are Democrats probably going to gain a net of two seats in the House?

I am reading different things but it seems like that will be the case for the next Congress.

So, GOP gains Presidency, gains four seats in the Senate, and loses two seats in the House?

(Final pre-election) Report from the field in Butler, PA

Butler County, PA has a 2:1 GOP registration advantage.

Never in my life have I seen so many signs for any Democratic candidate as i have seen for Harris/Walz this year. In and around the city of Butler, the signs on people's property are about 50/50 for Harris/the rapist/felon/fraud. I have noticed in the last two weeks or so that many of the Harris signs along roads have gone missing and in some cases signs for rapist/felon/fraud have replaced them, which almost certainly means Trump supporters have been taking them.

Now, I took a drive from Butler to Huntingdon county this weekend on Routes 422 and 22. The rapist/felon/fraud signs outnumber Harris signs by what seemed like 10:1, but that has been pretty much Republican territory this century. I discounted the amount of those signs because it has been the case with the followers of the rapist/felon/fraud since 2016.

The fact that there is so much enthusiasm for Harris in Butler of all places makes me think that there is a lot of enthusiasm the podcasters in their basement studios and the so-called pundits are missing.

Kamala's SNL skit was awesome!

Definitely worth the watch.
Sorry, no link in this post. You’re on the Internet, you can find it.

Does anyone know if Harris is leading in Michigan?

This site seems strangely silent on the issue.
