Whats ur rationale. Im curious cuz Im currently looking for more long term plays in my port
Easier for me to follow. I work in health and studied health policy in school, so clover checks a lot of boxes for addressing persistent problems with Medicare.

Nothing wrong with going long in both tbh. I’m not going to though. You need to research for yourself ultimately breh. I can’t answer certain questions for you. These are just my ideas.

I’m curious about this. Sofi is almost a full service online banking institution that also has investing capabilities and does student loans. I like clover as well but why do you think sofi is secondary? I think both are strong entities going forward.
Nothing wrong with that. I’m just not going invest in SoFi long term

i won't be around too much the rest of the week during trading hours so for all u who hopped in CCIV. Make sure to set a stop loss. if the deal isn't lucid and/or talks fall through this will drop like a rock. You have to keep an eye on it, i don't want u to get burned. Remember my cost basis is $14. I can afford it to drop. Good luck.

Spacs are great for retail investors if you get in early enough (close to $10).

the hardest part for me is not buying too many stocks. I’m at 10 and have to stop. Bft went up 8% today and I only made a few hundred instead of a few thousand, since I’m too spread out now. I’m trying to retire early, few hundred won’t do it.

got Tesla as my biggest holding by far. Planet 13 has reached 2nd and I’m hoping it makes me six figures long term. Arkg is great as it’s a growth etf and my only stock/etf that gives me a dividend.

Realistically I can’t get under 12-15 primary holdings. I’m not selling Abbive it’s a 7% dividend and I’m up 50% on the shares. Walgreens is another one. Walgreens is almost 5% on the dividend and it’s too stable to drop. Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, JP Morgan, and Disney are foundational pieces. Not selling Tesla.

That puts me at 8 minimum core holdings. SoFi is my main spec play actually 2nd largest holding. CCIV, Planet 13, and Tattooed Chef are other spec plays. If it came to it CCIV gets dropped. Will exit Uber eventually but it’s been good to me so far.

Doing some late night DD on clov, this is what the healthcare space needs, and im sure they are going to move beyond medicare in the future

@Serious you're right about this one
I hope not that’s what gives them their edge. All the legacy companies are focused on a million things in addition to Medicare.


Medicare itself is a big enough beast. That addressable market is going be crazy in a few years, with baby boomer retiring / being eligible for Medicare.

Plus fixing Medicare isn’t an overnight thing. I think most people who invest should do small portion of their profile because this is a long long play at least 3-5 years in the making before it truly pops.

I’m willing to wait that long though, while allocating a significant portion of my profile to it. I work with seniors and monitor health policy so it’s easy for me to see the big picture and do dd.

The SEC needs to get on Elon Musk. He's out here trolling on Twitter moving markets and shyt. He could literally be telling the homies aye go buy some Dogecoin I'm about to tweet for all they know. He's a CEO and should act like it. It's just so unprofessional. You don't see Nadella or Zuck out there troll tweeting they keep their profile low and just do their job growing the companies.

For me or you no. For a person of power and influence that is literally moving stocks and markets by doing so yeah should be. Elon Musk shouldn't be inserting himself into the market by picking winners off random tweets.

He tweets use signal and some unrelated stock jumps 100%. You think that level of behavior from someone of that status is ok? You don't see the problem with that?

Just holding a single company doesn't seem like a good idea. 5 maybe but just 1? If something unforeseen happens to that single company hello financial ruin.
3 - 5 stocks and 3 - 5 crypto
