    Pulling your money on a general red day isn't a good strategy in my opinion. Like returning a pair of shoes you bought the day they are sale for the sale price. Patience my man

    Agreed

    I started winding down positions after GME/AMC wave.. before I get too big headed. Closed all clean energy stocks and ETF couple days ago.. Pure luck there. Seems like PLUG is dragging INRG down now. Also finished with my oil plays.. Was only short term. All in green.

    Couple red days aint nothing new to me.. hence why I am leaving some meme stocks like NAKD and ATOS run.

    I dont see anything attractive at the moment.. so debating tilting to short side.

    Did this for my first year of trading.. Or sell at the drop, see its climbing again, buy back in at fomo and it drops even more. double kick in the nuts

    Bloodbath out there today, if you'd told me WTI & Brent would be at $60 and you'd still get a drop like this back in April I would have laughed in your face...

    Has anybody invested in, or know of, any Smart Materials companies? I know there are some big players in this field (GSK, Unilever), but are there any smaller stocks that are on your radar? Was thinking of something in the construction sector specifically

    Market correction for the next while or just a red day?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,569 ✭✭✭Nemeses2050


    another little pull back there...Apple in the range and PLTR too, will wait though to see the extent of sell-off before jumping in for PLTR.

    anyone interested in Renewals, watch HASI - it's a renewables REIT.

    with earnings season coming to an end, we may see a bit more pull-back...

    rise in Jobless claims triggered todays drop, I guess market's waiting for excuse to take profits. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 330 ✭✭DutchYurt


    -8% now overall. Thank god I LOVE losing money.. gets my back up to start paying attention again, the red gets the bulls attention (I don't think anyone famous said that I think I just made it up). Will rework my strategy over the weekend and come back firing. Back to the day job for now!

    Bloom energy BE - has dropped 25% since Tuesday, getting dragged down with Plug power etc. One to keep an eye on for an entry! I've been in and out since 4 - it's a wild one but the potential is there.

    Fidelity - Since 1920 the S&P 500 on average has recorded a 5% pullback 3 times a year, 10% drop once every 16 months and a 20% correction every 7 years.

    Today and the last few days correction are mostly the high growth stocks, which have been on an insane run this year so far. The dip has barely registered on the s&p500, which is only back like 1.6% from its ath, a 6 or 7 % pullback would leave it back under that last dip during GameStop, and that would still be a very normal healthy correction. Not that I'm predicting this, just that I wouldn't bat an eyelid if it happened. in terms of the market, nothing has changed, people have cashed out today but that money isn't gonna be long sitting in their accounts before they lob it back in the market, the only question is will it rotate away to a different sector like crypto, or back into them good growth companies

    Warren Buffett says he loves when stock prices are down. It means he can buy more stock. :rolleyes:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,857 ✭✭✭Atlas_IRL


    Palantir sliding beautifully into buy zone, Will be interesting at market open tomorrow when the lockup is gone to see if it drops a lot more. I'll probably buy back in the afternoon tomorrow.

    CCIV is holding down the other EV stocks for weeks. NIO will stop the bleeding when this settles.

    Bill Ackman speaking about PSTH at the PSH earnings...

    Majority of his & companies time spent working on PSTH
    Won't announce anything until definitive agreement
    Timeline is "out of their control", possibly based on the company in question not PSH
    Wouldn't say anything about the company other than "it's a big one"
    Likely their next investment announcement will be the merger but no timeline mentioned

    Basically.....nothing new.

    I wonder are they waiting for the CCIV deal and attention to pass and then hoover up whoever didn't get in on that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,391 ✭✭✭✭Timmaay


    I suppose it's a nice complaint that I use to buy 1000s of nndm in one go before but nowadays I'm only able to afford 200 shares ha, bought the pullback but would happily of got 1000 more shares but not nearly enough cash.

    Interesting upcoming IPO Cellular Goods.

    Synthetic cannabinoid products. Has David Beckham as an early investor as is the guy behind Argo.
    With the current buzz around cannabis products could be interesting. Kanabo, the only other cannabis share on the LSE is up from 15p to 40p since IPO on Tuesday

    For those UK based, shares can be purchased now through PrimaryBid. 5p a share, min purchase £100, closes tomorrow though.

    Ark Invest show their purchases every day.

    Shopify dropped about 7/8% on Wednesday after results - Ark bought $74m.

    These drops are what keep the good funds in business. They know the prices will recover

    Anyone know why RIOT (-9.29%) and MARA (-8.9%) while Bitcoin is showing +1.14% https://www.coindesk.com/price/bitcoin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 15,636 ✭✭✭✭retalivity


    This red day has barely eaten into the gains of the past week, portfolio is down 1.7% and still ahead of where I was at open of business yesterday morning.
    The red numbers always look scarier than they are!

    I went with $VTGN - VistaGen Therapeutics. They are a biopharmaceutical company developing a generation of novel medicines for anxiety, depression, primarily through nasal sprays One of their products in the pipeline is called PH94B(neuroactive nasal spray) that is in phase 3 awaiting results very soon(Q2 2021). It treats social anxiety disorder. With everything that's been going on in the last year we see lots of people suffering from depression and anxiety. When PH94B passes FDA Phase 3 development the price will go up significantly. I am in long at $1.97

    Started investing in the last few weeks (€2k total), a mix of crypto and tips from lurking on here. I'm hoping to learn as much as I can this year, and will probably add a couple of hundred a month to my portfolio and see how I get on. I've been doing OK so far, especially on the crypto side.

    Anyway I added Vistagen last week after reading this post and after doing a small bit of research on the company. Just opened Degiro and I saw that they're up over 35% today.

    I dont post too often on boards, but just wanted to acknowledge this tip, and to express my gratitude. Gonna have to figure out how long to hold the stock now, but that's another days work!

    It went up 200% off a 25% move in BTC. Got too far ahead of itself. Be careful trading it off of BTC price.

    RIOT is up 4500% in the past 12 months. Some run it has been on
