What does it mean to "Archive Order" on amazon.com?
In my Amazon order history, there are several buttons beside each item, such as "Contact Seller" and "Archive Order." What happens if I choose to "archive" an order? I can't find anything in the help system about it.
Thanks,

Usually MLPs move with the price of oil, not in the opposite direction>
1 AnswerInvesting5 years agoI want to trade safe, solid preferred stocks with low bid-ask spreads. What would you suggest?
My idea is to buy when stock price drops on ex-dividend day and sell in a few days or weeks when most of the drop has recovered. This strategy requires decent volume and small bid-ask spreads. I don't want to speculate on distressed companies in energy or other beaten-up sectors: I'd be happy with small gains.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,

4 AnswersInvesting6 years agoWhat long-short funds lived up to their promise of significantly outperforming the S&P500 during the 2008-09 crash, if any?
I'm willing to give up some upside in good years if a fund really will outperform in bad years, but all I can find is aggregate 10-year returns, which doesn't tell me when gains and losses occurred.
Thanks,

5 AnswersYahoo Answers6 years agoIs there a stock market trading simulation game that allows stop limit orders?
Investopedia has a pretty good-looking simulation but it only supports market, limit and stop orders.
1 AnswerInvesting6 years agoWhat website has the best stock market trading simulation?
I want to practice trading in as realistic an environment as possible, with limit orders, stop orders, short sales, etc. Not interested in options or futures, just stocks.
Thanks,

3 AnswersInvesting6 years agoHas Jack In the Box cut back on the free tacos for doing a survey promotion?
2 of the last 3 times I went I didn't have instructions on my receipt for doing an online survey to get 2 free tacos. I used to get this offer every time I went, and I got a lot of free tacos.
1 AnswerOther - Advertising & Marketing6 years agoWhy did Yahoo strip many features out of Answers?
The site isn't much fun any more with no voting for best answers and no way to find old unanswered questions except to scroll through many pages of a topic (at least I can't find an easy way). My high percentage of best answers is going to erode since we're now dependent on the askers to select a best answer. I think I'll check out Askville.

1 AnswerOther - Advertising & Marketing6 years agoWhere do you find the Trend Spotter feature on Barcharts.com?
I get "Chart of the Day" emails from barcharts.com. The emails always say something like "Trend Spotter recommended buying this stock on 5/1/2015." I have found Barcharts Opinions on the site, but not anything called Trend Spotter. Would appreciate any help in locating this feature.

4 AnswersUnited States6 years agoLong-term foster dog, poorly trained as a puppy, about 5 years old, usually goes outside to urinate but sometimes uses the carpet inside?
How should we reinforce training to go outside? It's a somewhat high-strung small dog.
