Luckily I bought a majority of it around $3.7.
If you're willing to wait out for Citi, it's a matter of time when their earnings come back.

I originally purchased this stock with a 1.5 year time frame. Expected the stock to rise up $6. I didn't expected they go through with a 10-1 reverse split. I was hoping to see more of normalized earnings and more of a stock buy back or increase in dividends. Because the stock was below $5 before, I was waiting for it to rise above it so institutional money can buy into it.
For now, I'm just going to wait it out and see how it settles after the reverse split.

And USD was higher when I started.
Now that the model is set, it's more difficult to change it back to CDN.
Back to topic, I am betting big on the recovery of uranium. In this sector alone, 30K so far on a mix of CCJ and URRE
Bought some CSCO when it hit below 17. Let's hope its refocus back to its core business bring some good value to my holdings.

We'll see what this 10:1 reverse split does to Citi.

if you're not opening a tfsa, i suggest looking into other platforms. i don't find questrade that good, the platform doesn't have enough information and i was holding a company that was being bought and had their shares converted, and it took questrade too long to convert them, delaying my trades
