    Kerry Group took a serious hit at one point today apparently because a very critical report was published by 'ontake research' (never heard of them either). I must have a look at it later.

    Either way Kerry is definitely one I'll be watching next week. Earnings are out Tuesday also and they're in the midst of negotiations to offload their consumer-facing businesses,

    I really like the company but am wary of buying above 95 as I like to give myself some kind of margin of error for companies I plan on holding for a few years and even 95 is still quite high.

    I've stopped taking any articles into account any more, they seem to be way off the mark more often than not.

    Almost as if it is intended to be that way.

    Zillow (Z) is the gift that keeps on giving. Up another 16% after beating Q4 earnings estimates. Now my second-largest holding after TSLA.

    3rd biggest holding in ARKF, which has also performed well recently.

    Covaxin is successful in tackling UK strain - informs ICMR (edit - old news misread)

    3 of my shroom stocks are up over 10-15% today.

    If those sales/spins offs were to go through do you think it will jump alot? I feel the price is already built it

    At which point is Paypal going to pull back? Wish I got in sub $120...

    It’s got an investor day today so we’ll see the stocks reaction to that, could go either way. PayPal own the US equivalent of Revolut, it’s taking on banks

    Tried to buy champignon brands on Degiro today. Typically Degiro would put through the buy. Up 17 % now .

    I'm getting pretty pissed off that on top of finding stocks, looking at the charts and looking at the company profile I have to trawl reddit to make sure it's not getting pumped there as I'll get caught unawares as the growth is so rapid.

    I dont understand the issue here, if you are satisfied with the fundamentals, can see the share price at the time and are happy to buy in at that price, then why not buy anyway ride the pump and set the stop loss so save you from the dip.

    Then rebuy following the pump if you believe in the stock ?


    What is the difference between it being discussed on Reddit vs someone on Bloomberg or CNBC pumping it for the hedge funds ?



    The anti-reddit rhetoric is bizarre , pump and dump is hardly their invention.

    HYLN announced a new EV battery 🔋, up nearly 20% could go higher once Reddit band jumps into it😀

    I get that. My problem is I've always traded long. I'm trying to learn more about trends, fundamentals etc and making choices based on what I believe to be a solid theory when in reality what I'm seeing is the beginning of a reddit rush.

    I had longer term stocks in some medicinal cannabis companies that I had to dump out today because the top post on WSB was advising people to do this, driving the price down. Sure I'd make a profit from the stop loss but for someone who isn't glued to the screen all day the price shooting up then down is far too much volatility to keep on top of.

    I got on the GME train, of course I did. It was 140% shorted for **** sake. But everything is now to the moon then days later dump it. Means I have another metric to keep on top of while trying to actually learn to trade. I intend on doing this long beyond it being a cool thing on Reddit and right now suits me for applying time to learn.

    EDIT: Just to add, I don't begrudge people from making money on the market. Not at all, I'm just frustrated that when I have the time to learn this stuff, it coincides witha trend off the back of the GME boom. I also wonder how many of the millions of new users are Wall Street folks using this as a tool to push their agenda, knowing full well that the SEC will put pressure on Reddit to either reign in or completely removing trading discussions altogether. It's a win-win for Wall Street. Make the money they lost on GME back with pump and dumps in the guise of some WSB user doing "great DD" and they also remove a platform for the retail traders that have been making inroads since the start of the pandemic.

    HYLN announced a new EV battery ��, up nearly 20% could go higher once Reddit band jumps into it��



    Leveraging previous battery experience and incorporating enhancements for improved battery cooling, the new module delivers multiple benefits tied to performance and allows for more than a 40 percent improvement in cooling compared to the previous system. Key benefits include:
    • Longer Life – Hyliion’s improved battery module is capable of up to 5 times as much cycle life than a conventional EV battery.
    • Higher Charging Rates – Improved heat dissipation allows for higher charge and discharge rates of the battery and longer sustained power output.
    • Speed – The battery can be recharged in under 8 minutes, an unprecedented charge time compared to other EV battery solutions.
    • Safety –The new module design reduces the operating temperature of the cells allowing for a safer operating environment.

    That's pretty impressive if it goes into production with these kinds of figures.

    Cannabis sector is on a bull run again.

    2 small tips would be Organigram and Medipharm. Probably only 1 or two days left in it.

    Thanks for this. I have just started out with small sums. Bought organigram when I saw your post @ 4.45, sold after one day @ 5.62. Right now it's down to 3.69

    I very nearly bought me for around 15 a few days ago for HYLN, I thought it was a great price! Ah well...

    Stock market at the moment is decoupled from traditional concept of investment where shareholders get a profit of the company. Its pure speculations fuelled by COVID-19 money and people stuck at home. We are playing zero sum game where someone wins at the expense of someone loosing. Social media only highlights winning though.

    Are you buying something to hold for day, months, years or hours? if its months don't look at reddit, its just noise when you zoom out.

    If I am going into AMC,SNDL which is purely speculative, hype etc I am only staying there for couple hours, days max.. get profit and get out. Then Ill keep an eye on reddit, twitter sentiment and go with the wave.

    Sorry, I should have mentioned I was quoting the Canadian Dollar amount at the time. But ya the price % changes are still the same.

    I reckon the whole sector will be down more in the next few days.

    Interesting the small bio canna pharma stocks are a bit slower to drop. I mentioned earlier, they're the ones to take a punt on the next time the big boys go up. Once everyone and their granny hear about cannabis stocks at the dinner table, by the time they try and get in on the headliners it's too late, so a couple of days later you'll see these minnows take off as people get desperate for any foot in the door.

    Just bought 1,000 $TXMD @ $1.92.

    Anyone else holding any?

    I was looking at Warren Buffets portfolio last night. Here it is;

    https://dataroma.com/m/holdings.php?m=BRK

    https://dataroma.com/m/hist/hist.php?f=BRK&s=AAPL

    I was wondering what price he bought the Apple stock. Most bought 2017 to 2018. Prices then were around $30 to 40, allowing for share splits. Today its 135. That gives you an idea how much the market has moved in 2 years for top stocks.
    You'd have to wonder if a correction is coming.

    Will you keep us posted on this. I want to get in on this share and would like to do so on Degiro.

    I also emailed Degiro today about this. They say they're swamped so not expecting a quick response. Might call them tomorrow if it hasn't been added.

    All fund managers have to file a 13F with the SEC every quarter. This lists their portfolio composition.
