Errata:
It was March 18 and 19, not March 23 when the BUYS were made.
Finally taking a look after about 6 weeks.
so far it looks like some FEAR has been shoved aside for now.
That said, this is just for some plain vanilla large cap dow dividend plays,
and the buy execution was not sophisticated, simply press "BUY" and hold one's nose at the time.
If you look at growth platforms, the numbers are really eyepopping.
$DIS 17.6%
$V 17.9%
$MSFT 23.8%
$AXP 28%
$GS 28.7%
$INTC 32%
$HD 38.7%

fintechs may rule the future but AMEX has seen many come and go.
The story here is brand
in a space that over time erodes differentiation (e.g. in investments section of fintech, EVERYONE is doing fractional equity shares or will do so therefore "table stakes"), BRAND and experience will be monetized.
