Up PM

It was 50 odd shares though, no volume as yet, one of the few shippers not to really spike the last week or so. ER in early november might draw some attention to it.

I see the float is back under a million shares again.

First checked my portfolio for the first time in weeks. Down 10% in total...annoying...always get in at the worst possible time, same with bitcoin.

Abbvie fell apart on me...what happened there?

Nope, but im going back in to Alibaba. Opened at a 15mth low today, they have earnings call on friday and outlook is not good. However, they also have 11/11 coming up - its the biggest shopping day of the year in China & East Asia - their version of black friday/cyber monday. This will feed into the next quarter earnings and should see an increase in earnings/share price - see earnings for past 3 years below:

Share price generally rose from Nov-Jan over the past few years too.

You timed that well

Apple market cap is still ridiculous imho...

And they need to pay back the illegal subsidy you and I (as Irish tax payers) were forced to pay them...

Thoughts on General Motors?

oops I missed the boat here.

uncertainty whether the iPhone maker can keep up with demand for new products.

So there is so much demand for new products that the company is uncertain if they can meet it. That's a good place to be surely.

Apple is trading at fair value as is. It's a buy at fair value and hold forever stock.

Skelet0n · 02-11-2018 12:38pm

Anyone who followed me into EDRY again after the 40% run previously, from ST:

Bouncing nicely off resistance and support lines, should keep tracing up.

Look for a run if it breaks above the blue line.

That's pure spin don't believe it. Apple handset sales have been falling for a while, I think they've pushed the boat a bit to far with their new handset prices.
There really only a 1 trick pony, the likes of Xiaomi are gobbling up market share, samsung is starting to make cheap phones again.
I think their sales are completely in the bin but as there's so many floating around on ships, sitting in warehouses and in shop stock rooms it looks as if everything is ok.
I'm not going to go on a complete rant about them as there's a lot more tricks that should be called out.

I don't think it's a safe buy that's going to be around forever. Mickey Mouse and Pluto will but not Apple. It's a niche that's now out of most peoples reach.

If porsche doesn't break 60 today i'll eat my hat, Did you take your 10% yet Unkle...? Barclays updated target the other day to 90.

unkel · 02-11-2018 2:00pm

Nowhere near 10% dude, not even half that!

They gave me a bit of a fright over the past few weeks, I want more than 10% on this one...

Up 7.5% on this atm. Very long on it though.

Up 10% with Starbucks after just a fortnight, long on at too. Hope Ackman didn't get this one wrong too.

Gruffalo22 · 02-11-2018 2:51pm

Well I'm back in the green

Underground · 02-11-2018 3:28pm

Cashed out on my 2.5k portfolio in Wednesday for a 14.76% return, quite pleased.

I took my chips off the table for a few reasons. The markets have been going through an unprecedented period of low volatility for a number of years now and the market has to drawdown eventually.

I think uncertainty is starting to creep back in regarding the low interest rate environment that has facilitated higher levels of corporate debt. The fed has hiked their key rates a number of times and will likely do so again in 2019.
When you add trade wars and Brexit into the mix, I can understand why uncertainty is on the rise. I smell something in the offing.

Gonna keep my degiro account open and keep an eye on the market. I think you can set price alerts on securities so I will be investigating that. All that being said, I could be posting in here again on a few months time with egg on my face having missed a massive bull run, such is life!

Skelet0n · 02-11-2018 3:58pm

The Donald needs to crack out his phone and tweet something positive to get this recovery back on track.

Anone in on Xiaomi, shares are starting to lift and the Q3 number should be impressive. The only place I can find them is on the Hong Kong Exchange with Degiro, would prefer a euro or us ticker if anyone knows one.

Did you get in on this? I would like to buy a couple of shares through degiro and can't see any buy prices.

Are you looking at XIAOMI CORP-CLASS B ? Try etnet.com.hk.
