Anyone know what happens IPOC when it merges? I have IPOC shares and they are supposed to go to Clover Health. Just curious to know how the stock is affected.

Also, is there a way to track the gains/losses per day of your portfolio in DeGiro. They have it displayed when you log in but only for the current trading day. Can't find historical info

From folloiwng @MrZackMorris on Twitter and his crew, they seem to think it is going to the moon.. if that helps.. which it probably doesn't

From a practical point of view, Degiro will show a sale of IPOC and a purchase of a new share, some day next week. From a price point of view, probably a drop initially. A lot of SPAC hunters will sell and use the money to buy another SPAC. And SPAC funds will sell the shares. It'll then trade on fundamentals so will rise over time (hopefully)

No, I can't find anything like that. I have a google spreadsheet on my phone where I note the value of my portfolio at the close each day

Doesn't

Is that a spammer account that pumps stocks and then people pile in and they cash out when the price goes up a bit?

Delighted to log into Degiro and see my P/L in the green. I've finally done well enough to write off my Australian disaster that was TAW. Huge chunk never to be seen again, good riddance.

It's even more sickening to see the turnaround in other lithium miners that I keep an eye on, GXY, LTR and PLS.

Nice bit of green today!

retalivity · 06-01-2021 4:46pm

Motoring in the green today, portfolio up 1.5% but see that TEAM, FSLY & KO are down 2-3% so picking up a few more of each.

jams100 · 06-01-2021 4:55pm

The disconnect from reality in this market never fails to surprise me!

Cut a company like Coca Cola that pay a nice dividend and has a low PE and raise companies like Tesla that have a PE of 1400.

I like Tesla as a company and they will do well but the way these 'analysts' go on you'd think Tesla has no competition or will never have any competition. If people don't think the likes of Toyota, BMW, GM or even the likes of apple won't catch up then I think your mad. The market isn't endless for Tesla, and yes, I get that they are as much of a tech company as a ev company.

Tesla's market cap is equal to the combined market cap of Toyota, Volkswagon, Bmw, honda, GM, Ford, Porche, Ferrari, SAP & DraftKings.

They only sold half a million cars in 2020, again I'm not for a second saying its a bad company but I wonder if you invested 10k split between the above companies or 10k in Tesla which would be worth more in 10 years time???
I know it will probably continue to rise but there's no justifying it

(I no longer feel confident in my prediction that there would be a 5% correct in Jan but I'm going to keep the 15% cash to play with on the side for now)

Very glad I held onto GAN in the end was down 25% now up 5%, the owl saying of its only a loss when you actually sell rings through!

I think they were always confident they had offtake contracts in the bag and would pick up once Chinese markets and the lithium price started to recover.

The entitlement shares are basically up 170 percent for shareholders. Once we get out of the pandemic and manufacturing takes off, the EV market could drive this stock way up, fingers crossed.!

Yeah I see Degiro took some money for those last night aswell, still showing as a separate entry but should settle in the next 2 weeks. Im massively up there now, that was a pleasant Christmas surprise just likt the ETH and BTC bull run.

Fcuking TAW burned me badly aswell, Ill be getting it back hopefully by writing that off when I sell my crypto and a few others to buy a house this year even if they're still there in my portfolio, that money is gone, I think there is a provision with revenue that you can write something off as a loss even if its still there.

The Tesla valuation is utterly nuts. I'm a sucker for never owning a share and keep not buying because I feel its so overvalued. Yet continues to go higher and higher.

Likewise I'm down 7% on GAN, held on and hopefully will turn green in the coming days.

I am sure anyone who as TSLA shares are kicking themselves for not buying more back when they got in. it's heading to 800 (4000 pre-split). Madness.

Tell me about it, reminds me of BTC which I thought was madness and couldn't go any further so didnt invest. Then it went up and up and up and....

Maybe time to go with the flow, who knows?

sternn · 06-01-2021 6:33pm

Bought tsla back in July 2019 when at about $250. Sold at $900 pre the share split. Obviously would have been amazing to still be holding them...but I was delighted with my earnings when I sold, and still am.

dashcamdanny · 06-01-2021 6:40pm

Canopy growth gave me a healthy 15% before I sold it today.

Might have legs to go more over the next few weeks.

Keeping an eye on a dip to re enter

Michael burry (the big short dude who won big in the 08 financial crisis) apparently went big on shorting Tesla back in early Dec, when it was 540$. He must be holding massive losses at the sec.

I bought at 450 ish when it was quite volatile and not long after the split. I fancied a speculative trade on the basis of hype for battery day and S&P inclusion and just set an order of 10% below the price high it was hitting and it filled a day or two later. One of my biggest holdings at that price (only 11 shares) but it’s in a different brokerage account so thankfully doesn’t distort my view too much.

It’s hard to make sense of it and at the time I couldn’t help but doubt I was last to the party! I haven’t yet got comfortable with averaging up on existing stocks as I haven’t done enough (any meaningful...) DD and am still constructing a portfolio and experimenting.

May I ask your thoughts on FSLY its a ball ache of a stock for me. Its been getting hammered the last month or so from its 104 high. Should have cashed out. My BEP is 93 or so. I'm wary of the stock myself not sure to hold or just cut losses.

DutchYurt · 06-01-2021 8:53pm

Anyone looking at Kerry Group. I was just reading about the possibility of them selling off the meat/meals section and spinning off diary (assume its due to lack of profit?) there was a jump when they announced they were looking into it. Wondering if its worth getting in on now if it goes ahead? I imagine they wouldn't faf about too long so I expect news on it this quarter or next.

Purchased some more at low 100 s in November .To me its a solid well run investment/company . Its a stock I plan on holding very long term. At the moment it seem s to be classified as uncool or boring but when a lot of our more riskier punts go array , Kerry group will still be providing returns .

I've bought twice at 80, sold once at 97. I cant remember where or how I got into it, may well have been through a tip on here.

I picked Sturm Ruger back in Sept at $66 and later at $59, based on expected US election chaos. Took a bit longer than I thought to shoot up but its on a rocket today - even before all the madness that's currently going on in Washington.

Bought some more baba at 226. My BEP is down to 243 now. Got very unlucky that I bought initially the day before the drop to 210/220. But taking advantage of the drop.

I've seen JD down around 80 a good bit so think it could drop some more. However BABA has taken a bad news bashing for months, only so much a stock can drop that has these fundamentals.

It formed via a spac but is a battery company building solid-state batteries for EV's. If they produce what they are claiming it could be a massive company as the battery is the most expensive part of an EV car.

Any opinions on Fisker FSR? Fisker Ocean suv being launched late 2022. Manufacturing is being outsourced to a company called Magna who also produces cars for BMW, Daimler, Jaguar Land Rover and Toyota, will build the Ocean at its Graz, Austria, plant. Other models in the pipeline before 2025. Base price of $37500 for Fisker Ocean which is half of what the cheapest Tesla model x sells for.

One of my biggest holdings after NIO (my holdings are smallish tbh) and still a good price to get in at. It has a bit of a cult following for some reason but If you can sit on it for a few years its a cheap EV play. Henrik Fisker did go bankrupt before with his old car company but he's one of the best car designers in the world.

He's adding it to a unique leasing model and they will have showrooms similar to Tesla in the states. The Ocean is the first car and then there is a Sedan in the mix as well. I think the Ocean could do well in the states if they can produce them fast enough, they are huge on sustainability.

NIO still makes me sick today, I traded that over the course of year buying and selling and making a profit. Bought another tranche at around USD3 and sold at USD8 a few months ago as I knew I wouldnt be able to day trade for a few months, I come back and see it at over 50!!

Don't worry there's plenty like you and I on this sub. I thought they were going nowhere at the start of last year and sold out.

I bought back in at 43, which sickened me after selling way way way below that. I'm hoping for a decent bounce in the coming days.

Just thought I'd share this view of the market.

So what’s Grantham’s complaint? The co-founder of the Boston-based investment manager GMO has a few: “Extreme overvaluation, explosive price increases, frenzied issuance, and hysterically speculative investor behaviour.” He likens the mood to the South Sea bubble, the Wall Street crash of 1929 and the turn-of-the-millennium dotcom mania.

To be clear, Grantham’s eyes are mainly on US markets, and many of his examples of excess relate to US tech valuations, especially Tesla, and the boom in listings on Wall Street last year of “blank cheque” special acquisition companies. But his broad thesis should still be noted: it is that, counterintuitively, the broad rollout of vaccines may be the moment that investors are forced to rethink.

Whilst I agree the broad rollout of vaccines is going to take between 6-9 months minimum so there's still plenty of yolo investing going on and speculative behavior over the next few months I think!

It was 33 at the time and it has continued to rocket now to almost 80. Up 140 percent. But I don't know what to do now. Sell or hold..

Edit: My Degiro graph for it is showing 80 but in fact I think it's even higher than that now.

Came across this as well: https://theirrelevantinvestor.com/2021/01/05/one-of-the-great-bubbles-of-financial-history/

"Grantham is famous for calling the Japanese, tech, and housing bubbles. So when he speaks on this topic, investors pay attention. You can’t mention his prescient calls without mentioning the ones that didn’t come to fruition. It’s only fair to point out that he has been bearish for much of the recent bull market.

2010 - Have Cash, Wait for Stocks to Fall
2011 - Grantham sees most global equities as ranging from “unattractive” to “very unattractive” – valuing the S&P 500 at “no more than 950.”
2012 - Jeremy Grantham Warns 2013 Will Be A Dangerous Year For Stocks
2013 - Much of everything else is once again brutally overpriced
2014 - Big stock bubble will end badly in 2016
2015 - GMO founder Grantham says markets ‘ripe for major decline’ in 2016"

Maybe he's 100% right this time but broken clock and all that

It's tied to BTC right? I think BTC could go to 50k but there has to be a drop at some point.

Some of the valuations are saying it will run to 100k-300k this year, but with everything its crystal ball territory and all that. But if you look at the previous halvings and the hash rate of mining it could be right. If BTC gets to 50k I'll do some profit taking and reassess from there.

I'm just watching it with fascination like Tesla to be honest.
