Boiler Room: The Official Stock Market Discussion

[dora_da_destroyer]

My average share price for Uber is like $29.30. I have 50 shares. The current share price for AT&T is $28.49 I also have 50 shares. At $2.08 per share those 50 shares of AT&T in 2 years have paid $208. All the lots I have of Uber were purchased in 2020 and I'm up $1192.55 on them combined. It would take me 11 years of collecting dividends on AT&T to match that performance. That doesn't even factor in the fact that my AT&T shares are worth $100 less than my cost basis or that 5 years ago it was worth $36 and now it's worth $28.

It's literally almost worthless to hold that AT&T stock. It's kinda sad because the shares of Hughes Electronics my mom gave me that became DirecTV and turned into AT&T were what caught my attention on investing but it's probably time to let it go.

Oh shyt, you’re seeing the light of growth stocks

so on growth stocks it seems a lot of people who invested well found a growing stock and rode it either to the top or until they were able to make a great profit. Do companies like Apple, Amazon and Microsoft and others have that upwards growth left where they can 2-3-more x. Or should we be looking for something that is still moving upwards that we can ride to that point. Like Tesla or Shopify.

I have a bunch of shares of Apple and ARK G-K-f and have continued to collect them as well as a few others ATT for example but I'm thinking PLTR, NIO, PACB, Disney, TTCF is what I should focus on.

The dip paid off as I ended up reaching ATHs in my accounts today...

I'm happy with most of my positions and their growth stories... let's get it 2021

I don't know they seem like they troll a whole lot in that reddit to me. So I don't know what they are serious about or just joking on.

A couple of scalpers got rich buying cheap excess calls when the stock was trading at 5.00. Obviously when you make those kind of gains you want to tell the world about it. I could have done the same thing with Ford if I followed my instincts.

I'm trying to do a similar thing with Hertz now.

 

[the cac mamba]

think im gonna pick up this CHWY dip. dogs and e-commerce, that fukkin stock isnt going anywhere but up

i consider DIS to be the same in the same boat as Apple. You need to weigh the risk vs reward when it comes to (almost) guaranteed gains vs stocks that are going to be more volatile.

Chewy founder is investing heavily into it and there are fundamentals that point to it due to the amount of shorts out there. This is a decent overview of it - GameStop ($GME): A squeeze to $44 from $14 can be justified fundamentally...100% of the shares are short. Watch out. -

I know some ppl don’t like the idea of investing in what you frequently use/buy but for me it would’ve been a great long-term strategy if I was savvy about investing when I was in my early 20s...especially in tech...apple sony and microsoft would’ve been good to me

I got that advice from a oldhead earlier in the year. Didn't listen, but if I did my portfolio would look like this:

AAPL (own)
DIS
NFLX
FB (own)
TWTR
PYPL
SQ (own)
GOOGL
AMZN
CELH
KO
COST

That portfolio is kinda fire

Don't have a good answer for you, but good to see you in this thread breh. I remember you touted SHOP and ZM in mid March

Maybe PTON? You know brehs/brehettes try to get in better shape after break-ups.

Yeah that was crazy
Those two are still holding strong
I took a break with the markets in late November and December but I’m trying to get back into things and seeing what’s hot for 2021
This thread seemed like the best place
I actually bought pton in August and it’s been doing well
Chewy seems good
