I like this thread- nice idea!
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

Seems like a large # of these are in a sorta concentrated geographical area. Could it be a truckdriver making several of these? Something like that? It would be neat to put them on a map and annotate dates.
