What's gonna be the GME or AMC of the year? Money to be made still.
I'm going to take a small punt on Teladoc health at the current price. I'm hoping someone will target them for a takeover.
Beyond meat are down 90%.any hope for them I double down or write it off?
I'd hold. I expect they'll be around in 5 years and the plant trend is only going to continue to build momentum
Would it be madness to lower my bep at least ? It's around the 50 mark..I cant find much info about it that points to bankruptcy
Do you consider it to be the absolute best possible place you could put that money right now? Doesn't sound like it tbh. They might never get back to the highs, there was a massive amount of hype around them and the other plantburger company that launched at the same time a while back likely never to be repeated, more likely they'll be sold off to Amazons Wholefoods or Walmart or someone else for around todays price, look at the fridge next time in Tesco or wherever you shop, all their first mover advantage is gone, competitors everywhere now.
I can never understand why people sink money into a share to lower bep, especially when the share looks a turd. You can just end up with a bigger headache.
As said above, there must be better opportunities?
I suppose my point is, is it completely oversold...like it's a massive drop..as buffet himself said when others are fearfull that's the time to buy.I dont know, its a write-off regardless,I'll probly just leave it alone and like my bank of Ireland shares it might come good in 5 years
Amazon shaking things up a bit today. Could be a turning point for this turd of a stock...
Back to March 2020 levels. You expect this to run or further drops? Wouldn't mind adding to my holdings at some point.
I see alibaba now at 105 from a 12 month low of 58. Just goes to show, more money to be made at the bottom of the dips.
Still makes me sick, thinking about it. :( Hard to get over it.
What price did you sell off at?
I think the low. Painful. I panic sold the first day Xi was re-elected. Wish I didn't have access. It was pure panic mode as I was reading reddit and the talk of taiwan invasion was all over the place.
goog at 17.5 p/e and high net income is currently attractive among top companies .. if income stays up and share price falls a bit more could be well worth a buy
WYNN Up 12% since my post (in a falling market)
Amryt Pharma buyout announced over the weekend (100% premium to current share price).

I have little doubt that Poolbeg Pharma buyout is not far behind. Don't gamble with money you can't afford to lose and always DYOR!
Unlucky to hit the low.
One thing I see a lot with Stock prices, often the build up to something happening (Chinese Election) the price falls, but when the thing actually happens (election result), the price bounces back. Often it doesn't eve matter what the outcome is, it's just that there is an outcome. The market likes confirmations. Reliase this is all MMGB for you but might help others or yourself in the future.
Luck doesn't come into it. Someone makes a decision to buy or sell at a certain price, based on judgement.
I wanna cry. it's gonna break 115 USD today and I sold around 60 after having a BEP of 177.
It's probably 7 or 8k I have lost out on.
Invest for the long term and not on short term emotions and you won't have this feeling.
After 5 or so years, I feel the only worthwhile investments are pre-tax share purchase schemes in the company you work for.
For everything else, the tax system makes the risks really not worth it (not trying to descend the thread into another tax debate, but it really is the ruination of most investors)
Sellers remorse, just learn your lessons, forget about it and move on. It happens to everyone at some stage. Baba has too many unknowns and too much chinese government interference. It could go to $200 or it could reverse and dump again who knows, defo not anybody here for sure.
I would totally agree, the only real money I have made out of all of my long term investments including all tax paid have without doubt being the SAYE schemes and bonus share purchase schemes from my work.
Those schemes save income tax but gains are still liable to CGT. If you're calculating your CGT right, it still comes down to investing in a company that's share price goes up.
That's true but the main saving is the bonus scheme as at least it is not going in 40% tax to revenue. Once its goes up sure everyone looks great, if the only price was dripping year in year out then the bonus schemes wouldn't be worth much. Take meta for example, share price the last 3 years thatbpeople would have took the share options would be down over half, but that's what they would have paid in tax anyway if they took it in cash
Ya, I'm sitting on the fence with google too. I really like what they do just a bit uneasy with the idea that they may not have anywhere near the same monopoly in a few years. I'm old enough to remember Alta Vista.
Saving 40% income tax is incredible for those schemes. I couldn't care less if the share price goes up! Bonus if it does, but the cash cow is the income tax saving.
Absolutely, and I max out those schemes with my own employer too.
There's other savings schemes like EIIS also that you can save up to 40% on
BBBYBros...the turn of the tide is approaching.
