    Just hit 20% gain with NIO myself. Hoping for another 1000% with this one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,503 ✭✭✭✭Mad_maxx


    Have held on to FB since getting in at $136...very tempted to sell at this point and just put it in the bank for now.

    Do no such thing, it's very cheap for the level of growth, its a $250 stock within two years

    Really and how exactly do you measure ‘cheap’ versus growth then? What is the yardstick then?

    It is a company with few tangible assets, highly dependent on reputation and social trends for it’s valuation. How are you measuring that risk versus say a recovery in say GE? And what level of return would you require to take on that level of risk?

    You are not giving advice, you’re speculating with someone else’s money!

    Looking for a gamble, short term 20% plus opportunity, any tips?

    AVEO! Dropped 60% yesterday due to delays in FDA approval. Already approved in EU. Someone tipped them in the 2018 thread.. Bad day yesterday.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭ct5amr2ig1nfhp


    Interesting. Will give them a look.

    Thanks will do some homework before open


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 551 ✭✭✭Squeaksoutloud


    Not sure I would to be honest but you never know. Seems oversold possibly but obviously issues with FDA approval so I'm not convinced. Might be worth the risk now after the drop but I'm not happy anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,502 ✭✭✭q85dw7osi4lebg


    Things look fairly dire for now, interesting that it's approved in EU and not the other way around. An overreaction maybe but a long wait for recovery. Might dip toes, will see how it is PM.

    Forward PE is low for a company with such strong growth.

    I'm familiar with your ultra orthodox style and philosophy.if Facebook waa $30 with a PE of 5, you would advise against owning it

    I did not advocate putting everything in Facebook but it blew away earnings expectations and the massive move yesterday confirmed the recent lows of sub $130 were unwarranted, the poster bought it so must have felt it was undervalued,

    yea no bounce at all would be a very bad sign.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,502 ✭✭✭q85dw7osi4lebg


    .59 now. I’ll see it it looks just before close. Might be worth a small punt.

    Don't think I would to be honest. I nearly sold last week! Doh. Hding for now as not much worth there anyway at this stage. Not much sales in Europe either.

    They’re down from over 20$ few years ago. What happened ??

    So because someone analyst came up with a figure it must be right.... When analysts fail to get it right they blame the company for failing to meet their expectations rather than accepting their responsibility for getting it wrong.

    And of course your statement fails to address the original question on risk.
    I'm familiar with your ultra orthodox style and philosophy.if Facebook waa $30 with a PE of 5, you would advise against owning it

    You don’t know me nor my investing style. And even if you did it should have no influence on your opinion of the company nor your ability to answer the questions posed.
    I did not advocate putting everything in Facebook but it blew away earnings expectations and the massive move yesterday confirmed the recent lows of sub $130 were unwarranted, the poster bought it so must have felt it was undervalued,

    That is simply evidence of the crowd mentality. Just because people agree with you does not mean you are right on a valuation.

    You did not answer any of the original questions posed nor provided any meaningful insight in the post => to much listen to the talking heads.

    Enough said.


  • Registered Users Posts: 83 ✭✭XMG


    AVEO are having the same issue with FDA approval that they had in 2013, a lack of overall survival data, I'd say they will get there eventually so if I was invested then I'd hold on.

    On another note, I’ll be keeping an eye on STX tomorrow, earnings report out after market close

    Welcome to the rollercoaster. I'm up 300% odd (small investment) between the big 4. Acb canopy aphria organigram . But in it for the very long haul and not buying any more.
    I think it's an international game at this stage so do your research if you are going to buy in any more. I reckon there'll be more dips to come.

    Ya it's a bit like the dotcom or Bitcoin frenzy... but at the same time the main companies are producing/selling/heading towards profit.

    Davy StockBrokers released a research note on their client, Kenmare Resources yesterday. Kenmare are mining for titanium in Mozambique. Davy reckon its massively underpriced at €2.50 on the ISEQ...and this doesn't reflect the fact that they have brought the mine to production. They have a target of €6. Thats a whopping 140% upside for believers :-o

    Personally it does indeed look undervalued ...but exploration stocks are getting a kicking worldwide at the moment, soo it might be a mid or long term play

    Broker notes are not worth the paper they are printed on, goodbody put a 40 euro price target on crh last summer when it was at 30, it dropped 30%. Afterwards

    I don't disagree with you. But maybe an interesting one to keep on the backburner watchlist all the same.

    incidently CRH in the news today and sp has taken a good jump.

    Unsurprisingly Davy is listed on the Kenmare site as one of their 3 stockbrokers.

    Probably my best trade of the year so far.

    I didn't manage to get mine down that low. BEP is 12.09. Bought a good few more when it was around 10 to bring it down to that. Was only getting started when they were around 16. Will only buy more if they drop again with Brexit but the news of O'Leary staying on and the restructuring has given it a bounce.

    Currently 11.67 so not too far from breaking even. Didn't think it'd happen so quickly.

    Providence Resources creeping up the last few weeks, almost nudging its 1 year high. Have sell order of everything in at €0.20 which was what it opened at this morning but no takers yet. stand to make a few bob at that price which I may either punt on weed or be sensible and try get my Ryanair BEP down from €16

    That announcement seems to have put the afterburners on CRH sp. Up 5% today. But still only approaching my €28 BEP point now (shows how bad a 6 months they have had) :rolleyes:

    Fair play captain

    and a lot of people on the Share Picks 2018 thread guffawed when I (and somebody else) suggested Providence might be a good place to throw a bit of spare change. Got in and out myself last year and was waiting, waiting, waiting for it to go down to 11c for a buy in again but it never did :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,007 ✭✭✭greenfield21


    There's just no volume moving providence though, looking on the lse trades it's so quiet. Could see a lot of manipulation. The an taisce survey challenge put a downer on it. Also with drilling far away so I think it will fall back. Hopefully an rns with survey approval and maybe some other farmouts might change things. Maybe get more mug punters on board with more media coverage. Its gambling a binary bet.

    Interesting observation. CRH fell from a high of €35 in 2007 to a low of € 11 in 2011. As cyclicals I wonder would both now also be close to their highs again given that we are arguably at the top of another Economic cycle?

    (I currently hold a nice bit of CRH and a small few Smurfit shares)

    Atlassian @78

    Currently $103 & $170, will cash a few of them out. Also got skyworks around the same time for $65, sold out today at $82 after earnings. Where to go now???

    No I haven't sold any yet, tempted to (and probably will) sell some MONC, I have them a few years and have made a tidy profit, probably should have made that decision in the middle of last year but cest la vie, the sp flip flops a bit so if I sell some I would be looking at an opportunity to get back in if there is a drop. Something similar for BUR.

    I expect to be holding VOO indefinitely.
