Amazon Zoox unveils self-driving robotaxi — CNBC Can amazon just leave this shyt alone for Tesla? I remember reading that Bezos and Elon don’t like each other.
Lol, no way Amazon dips out the autonomous game, it’s a game changer for them. But they wouldn’t be reselling this tech the way someone like TSLA would. There’s room for multiple companies to eat in autonomous driving

when did you buy and why you have an urge to sell? you need to spend money? :jbhmm:
if you are going to sell then i recommend holding at least 1 year, so you pay less taxes. :manny:

I’m canadian, don’t have to worry about year hold for less taxes. But also have these Tesla shares in tax protected accounts.

I bought a bit after s&p inclusion, just due to knowing the price would likely go up. Why I’m looking to sell? Because Tesla was already over half my portfolio before I saw this quick flip opportunity. I would like to buy some Arkg, at least with the profits. I figured worst case, if I was wrong about s&p inclusion driving price up, I could hold them for a bit and be ok anyway.

I see the government finally trying to stop big tech monopolies. What about a single company/owner that is literally in everything and too powerful? Perhaps they just chalk that up to capitalism and it’s fine. Not fully thought out but I believe it has its dangers and maybe they should cap people. And yes even Elon himself too. Any space rules? Guess they’ll work on that later but both Elon and Bezos are involved in space field.

guess I mainly just don’t like amazon haha. dominating e-commerce and then sponsoring their own products. Their unethical moves by listening to sales pitches and just taking peoples ideas.

Really taking it serious now investing 100 every two weeks for the next 3 months
Every paycheck I take at least $100 and invest in something. My typical strategy is to open a position and get it up to at least 50 shares or at least $1000 in market value then pause on it and see if I can lower my cost basis. I’ll buy other stuff but I’m trying to keep to 20 companies or less.

once everything is 50 shares I’ll move onto 100 shares per position.

Up to 35 shares of ARKG across all platforms
20 of SQ
12 of TSLA

Most are in my retirement account (except SQ) i have a total of abt 7 other holdings in my retirement, any thoughts on what to trim down. Goal is to add on ARKG.

PLTR
ARKK
WTRH
EH
IPOC
DKNG

none of them have over $750 in each. Any entertainment related thoughts if I should consolidate into solely TSLA, SQ and ARKG? All thoughts and opinions are appreciated. TIA.

breaking up big tech wouldn't help in a situation like this. amzn bought zoox and could def make money introducing/running an automated cab company, but if the govt says you have to make that its own company, they'll just use the tech for shipping, and possibly delivery, and that can't be stopped.

elon at least broke his companies up from the start, which was smart

people are not getting why market aggregation is a bad thing. especially in a world with (local) differences.

we see it on IG, facebook, in online search, dating etc but people are not getting it.

big tech needs to be broken up :picard:

Got 3800 to spend on my ira and tryna see what I get. My most desired but least likely is 5 of Tesla. At 30 now and would like to reach 50 but with just gains from selling funds and not added money being able to play with, not sure if I can reach that goal just yet. Especially with wanting to add more ark. I can add 20 more arkf and use the rest on arkq or get some arkg. Arkw which I have 30 and arkk, have none in that account, likely too high for me to add to right now. Might just add to arkf and get some arkg. Spend some money on the lower cost stuff to be able to add more shares. Might likely convert more of the 8 mutual funds I have left to ark and individual stocks but all depends on how they do. Luckily I don't get taxed on trades so no need to worry about that. Plus I can take the risk now instead of later.

I see Apple doing good today. Hopefully that trend continues. Think I'm good with my 32 tho.
