Could about life in general, money, decision making, news, economy, etc. I finished listening to ‘The Psychology of Money’’ by Morgan Hounsel, would highly recommend. I also listen to the weekly MyWallSt podcast, alongside Motely Fool Money Podcast.

It'll collapse eventually, ye should probably think about what point you want to get out. Last one out will be in the red. As for long term investments, GME has been on a downward spiral for a long time, if you're thinking of going long, wait till the short squeeze is over and buy lots more shares at $5

Until I checked the chart. Mother of God look how parabolic it's gone, and how far away from its 20day moving average it still is, even with its 14% drop. 2bh you must of total fomo'd and bought when it was crazy extended, and you'd totally missed the boat. Hopefully this drop will be enough to scare you away from fomo'ing in any future stocks in a similar position. But anyways thanks, Mara on my watchlist now, my loose target for it to consolidate around the 20$ mark until the 20day moving average catches up, and get in when it continues an uptrend.

That ship has sailed let it go, the risk is not worth it. Find stocks that people aren't seeing the value in, not ones that every single person is talking about and has already pumped 300%

Skillz provides a platform to turn any mobile game on iOS and Android into a game you can play with friends or strangers for cash, prizes, or points. Market Cap 7 billion - 30 million players and 20k developers - 2.7 million monthly active users - 2 billion tournaments per year - Revenue grew 91% to $162.4 million during the nine month period of 2020 - Gross profit grew 89% to $153.6 million during the nine month period of 2020 - Gross margin was 95% during the nine month period of 2020 (Never seen such a high figure) - Spending a lot on sales and marketing but they have no long term debt - Average time spent by gamers on Skillz is twice the industry average at 62 mins per day - On the advisory board is Trip Hawkins the co founder of EA Sports - CEO is Andrew Paradise who founded AisleBuyer and sold it to Intuit for between 80 and $100m - 90% of their revenues come from North America but international market is four times larger I'm not a massive gamer myself but I know from reading up and talking with others how big Egaming is becoming, this is probably a more risky investment than I would normally make but given the potential returns and the growth that is coming in egaming I think this is worth the risk. Risks? They have very little competition at the moment and when covid ends will it effect the time spent by users on the platform?
1. Covanta - Own and operate waste to energy plants throughout the US and Europe. The good: the industry will survive recessions/pandemics as we still produce rubbish, they also have a few projects going on in the UK, the bad, they have a significant amount of long term debt. They are now conducting a strategic review to see how they can exploit their assets further. Paying about a 2.5% dividend. Probably a 3 year+ hold for me. Wouldn't expect major returns on this, but I think you need to try diversify away from purely tech or SPAC's

This news came out a month ago but seems to be driving SP now as people think they will announce funding news.

jams100 wrote: » To the people who think you have to jump into every SPAC at the beginning! I Mentioned Skillz Three weeks ago now up 60% I also mentioned Open up 40% The idea you have to rush into these SPAC or just buy any old SPAC is pure nonsense and nothing but speculation. Of course some people will do well for a short time with this strategy but as more and more SPAC come on stream only the quality ones will survive. None the less, these gains of 40-60% don't make me feel comfortable so its probably getting time to reduce holdings in these.

Possibility they may go fab-less like AMD and just design but not make their chips..... will be outsourcing to TSMC/ Samsung to make them. Earnings call is coming up were a the company direction will likely be disclosed....... squeaky bum time

Have a look at BFT and its merger with paysafe. Merger should happen in Q1. Paysafe should do well with e-buying and the change in gambling regulations in the US.

Paul_Mc1988 wrote: » Leixlip has three fabs all running 14nm. This node is now 6 years old was expected to be finished by now. It's still at full capacity due to the 10nm issues they faced but will likely ramp down this year. The new fab for 7nm is currently being build out there. Its the biggest concrete pour in Europe and a site like no other I've seen (size wise). But the thing is they haven't ordered any tools to go into it as they still dont know if they can get the wafer to work. We are expecting an announcement soon (fingers crossed). If they outsource its likely there will be huge job cuts out there over the next few years and a complete shut down possibly on the cards.
