    Buy now when it's still lower-ish

    Next year will be a blast, they already raised the prices

    • Marking again the date for next year

      118.59 28 08 2021
      grafician
    • Why marking the date?monospaced
    • I mean, why do it here when you can just look at a 1 year chart next year? Would be far easier than a side note in this thread several pages back.monospaced
    • How much did you buy? Seriously?monospaced
    • Because post dates here are relative

      And I don't buy stocks like you
      grafician
    • For example trading commodities makes you a lot more money than holding dumb stock, as you can see from my other posts, but hey, not everybody is up to thatgrafician
    • I know how the post date works. Just not sure why you would reference an historic price on QBN vs a simple chart later.monospaced
    • If you're not buying, why are you saying "buy now" on this? You fancy yourself and advisor? lolmonospaced
    • y'know, walk the walk, not just talkmonospaced
    • *face palm*

      oh boy, you really are clueless
      grafician
    • You give advice. You don’t follow it. What am I possibly clueless about?monospaced
    • I asked if you bought this stock after advising here to buy it. Simple question. There’s literally nothing I missed.monospaced

    How long do you hold on to a stock?

    If you buy and the stock goes down and you're at a loss, do you hold and hope to recoup losses?

    Have you profited overall?

    Are you holding onto unrealized gains hoping to gain more?

    • It's hot "hoping to gain more", it's "investing". I've held some for over 20 years. Always know why you buy, hold or sell. It's research.formed
    • If a company you believe in goes down, you add to your position, if it goes up 20-50% in one week, take some profits.formed
    • Overall, my port is up several 100's of %. If I tried to time the market, take too many profits, etc., I'd have missed out on 90% of those gains.formed
    • Same as formed. Most of my holdings are mutual funds and ETFs but my stocks I simply grow as formed described.monospaced
    • For me it’s simplified because I don’t do much high risk stuff. I don’t have time for that nonsense.monospaced
    • So if you're up 200%, you don't sell because you just assume it will continue to grow?bainbridge
    • That depends on what the research says. The annual reports and news are usually enough combined with trends.monospaced
    • If it’s still going up, I might sell a little and let the rest go up. But if it dips or falls significantly on the way, you buy more. Hedge your own bets.monospaced

    Whenever you're investing in PLTR you're basically investing in a police state lol

    https://www.vice.com/en/article/…

    • Or you’re just investing your money in something that generates returns and you don’t really give af about what they do.monospaced
    • ^what a morally corrupt thing to say

      No wonder I get downvoted whenever I point out uncomfortable truths around here
      grafician
    • it has nothing to do with morals, and your downvotes have nothing to do with your weird delusion that you are making anyone uncomfortablemonospaced
    • buying stock in a company and holding it like you means you're actively supporting that company you idiot - with your money!
      do you even know what stocks are?!

    • Damn somebody made a killin shorting thatgrafician
    • Surprised it took this long. Good product, but it clearly was all due to covid. Too expensive, too much competition, etc.formed

    ^Look into car stocks for shorts near future as chip shortages will continue:

    Toyota ($TM) already down over 4% today (just announced they will cut production by 40%)
    Ford $F down over 2%
    General Motors $GM down over 3%

    and so on...

    • In fact, short anything that uses chips until 2022.grafician
    • But not intel or Apple.monospaced
    • Not Intel or Apple.grafician
    • So just keep an eye out on the chip shortages situation, that affects many more industries than covid does rngrafician
    • Three days ago you said to buy Intel. And Apple is a good buy regardless.monospaced
    • Yes man, buy Intel for sure, the car industry is affected a lot more than tech stocks by the chip shortages, damn
      This is not financial advice lol
      grafician
    • Tech stocks like Intel or Apple can easily recover as they sell other shit too. But Toyota cut production by 40% meaning no chips = no cars = no revenuegrafician
    • < IF you would've shorted these 3 stocks today, that'd be your 10% of the daygrafician
    • I’m sure you did just that and make the mythical 10%monospaced
    • @mono
      GOOG +0,43%
      AAPL +0.47%
      AMZN -0.19%

      But sure, good luck holding tech stock...
      grafician
    • huh?monospaced
    • And no, no stocks for me, just buying and selling GBP, for some reason the pound is rather strong these days.grafician
    • You point out these car stocks as if their dropping 2-4% is unique to them. Yet, the entire market is showing that, including tech. It's not chip related.monospaced
    • The selloff today is because of economic policy, covid fears, global growth concerns, job loss claims in the US, and so much moremonospaced
    • Just because you don't agree doesn't mean it's not valid. For you many of the things I say here don't even compute it seems.

      Why tf do I even bother...
      grafician
    • Here, maybe you even manage to read some news this time: https://www.bbc.com/…grafician
    • I’m aware of the news. From YESTERDAY. It’s part of the issue but not the whole picture. That’s all.monospaced
    • Please stop assuming people aren’t as informed. It’s silly and why people are not responsible to you in a positive way. It’s condescending.monospaced
    • Nothing you’ve ever said manages to “not commute” for me. You’re not that “smart” I guess. Not what you think.monospaced
    • It literally says right there it's all about the fucking chips, as the whole market knows this and acting on it, but nooooo for monospaced it does not compute.grafician
    • and yes, it's always YESTERDAY news because you live in the fucking US where it's forever yesterdaygrafician
    • also the fact that it seems I always need to explain facts to you like to a 5 yo is disconcerting
      entire market: it's the chips
      mono: no no it's other stuff
      grafician
    • If you don't like my posts, ignore the posts and move the fuck on, I really don't get your need to comment everywhere, stay in your fucking lane and move ongrafician
    • You don’t need to explain. That’s my point.monospaced
    • And they all recovered since with gains.monospaced
    • I do need to explain because you're not that sharp.

      ALSO this was a post about trading, not buying and holding. I specifically said to short the stock...
      grafician
    • you don't need to explain, though, you never have had to, since nothing you've said has ever been beyond my existing knowledgemonospaced

    INTC

    Would start buying now while it's still low, as they announced new GPUs and will cut competition early 2022 as chips availability still rages on.

    • But they haven’t recovered from their shit spring earnings ;)monospaced
    • Gamble. Apple, Nvidia, etc., left them scrambling. They need the designs and production. Playing catch up, but competition will be food for us.formed
    • I hope you’re not implying their phone sales are not good. They need to keep up services instead. Phones and design are already killing it.monospaced
    • The idea that they are playing catch up and need to improve to succeed isn’t based on any actual reality. No offense.monospaced

    • It would be incredibly naive to think that is the end of their capabilities or the extent of their plans.monospaced

    • Sure, we're at the start of another space race for sure, but no, companies like Virgin or Blue Origin have nothing to do with it. Try again in 20 yearsgrafician
    • I never said anything about a space race. I said this is the birth of commercial space flight. I'm not wrong.monospaced
    • Considering both BO and Virgin are the two primary movers in commercial space flight, it's safe to say they have almost everything to do with it. LOLmonospaced

    Amazon after Bezos stepped down not doing so good

    "So with that in mind, how did Amazon do? Well... not so good: not only did the company miss on the top line and operating income, but guided much lower than Wall Street expected

    Net Sales $113.1B, missing estimates of $115.1B
    EPS $15.12, beating estimates of $12.28
    Operating Income $7.7BN, missing est. $7.82B
    AWS net sales $14.81 billion, beating estimate $14.18 billion
    Free cash flow increased to $16.8 billion for the trailing twelve months, compared with $11.7 billion for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2020.
    Looking ahead, the company's guidance was unexpecteldy ugly, with the high end of expectations missing sellside consensus

    Q3 Net Sales $106.0B to $112.0B, badly missing Wall Street est. $118.75B
    Q3 Operating income between $2.5 billion and $6.0 billion, also missing estimates of $8.11BN'

    • Nothing but a bump in the road. One of the best investments anyone could have made in the last 5-10 years.monospaced
    • So Amazon is left with only AWS now, so be itgrafician
    • Yeah but that’s like 90%+ of their business. They basically own the internet.monospaced

    • So you trade, but not stocks?monospaced
    • You said you were smarter than the average trader. And you use a top brokerage.monospaced
    • And why switch? What do you mean by "mostly" fx? Why would you even use different ones? Weird.monospaced

      Oh right, you're not a trader
