    It's kind of funny how the whole world is on KTOV in twitter yet they don't even post one thing about the drugs they're trying to make. I would've already suspected stock to go up just based on how many ppl are pumping it.

    Just had a relatively large CD (3%) expire. As most of you likely know I am older and while I play some my largest holdings are "preservation of capital".

    Anyone care to offer ideas where I can safely park most of this? I've never had much luck with bonds but was thinking about checking out Pimco.

    Advice much appreciated. BOL to all.

    FSLY climbing back up. Hope you guys got in on the discount.

    IDEX gonna be a stock to watch today. It's like a soap opera on which way it will go, but they have a big meeting and PC today and it could really skyrocket if it goes well. Re-bought some shares at 2.25 banking on an explosion, not a plummet. So we'll see. The way the EV industry is performing this week, I'm banking on good news, not bad.

    Chico, i was not laughing at you, you are my buddy. i was laughing at OAN. they are clearly on the side of absolutely anything that will help Trump's re-election chances. for them to say a COVID vaccine will be ready in the next month is just pure insanity and not believable.

    i am not taking a political side here. i am telling you NOT to believe what CNN and MSNBC and FOX and OAN tell you. it is all slanted and must be filtered through that lense

    A rarity, but so far all the stocks I own (TTD, AAPL, FSLY, IDEX) are all in the green. Glad I sold SHLL at the right time and fought off the urge to buy iBIO, KTOV, and AYRO. All in the red today.

    How do you make a lot of money buying those super expensive stocks? Doesn't seem worth it unless you can buy 500-1000 shares of a stock at a time. Maybe I'm just greedy.

    Well AAPL and TTD are long termers. Put $10k into each one. I already gained a lot with both. FSLY isn’t that expensive. And IDEx...well, I just dropped it haha. Disappointing PC today. Tanking since. I usually play more but right now I’m holding out some $$& doing some studying up on what to buy and waiting for some good dips. May invest in AYRO with this dip. Also looking to put another long term buy with MSFT.

    Wish I would have put my long term $10k into FSLY. I'd be at almost $20k right now. That thing has been the best stock I invested in. Great company.

    What’s the story with XSPA? Today was supposed to be a huge home run for them. Had a lot of big PR and unveilings. Instead it’s only going down. Reminds me of GNUS.

    XSPA should be up and running in JFK pretty soon. I haven on idea what profit margins will be like for them, I just know they've adapted vey well to all this. I don't see it dropping below 4 or mid 3s max. Looking like it'll be around 12ish in a couple months.

    Watch out for FMCI. Studying their chart over the last month they have a consistent pattern going and it’s due for a spike after this dip Plus they just announced a merger this week with Tatooed Chef. Good time to buy into them. May not spike tomorrow but it’s coming in the next couple weeks.

    Will check it, thanks. I stopped viewing a bunch of these guys on twitter because they're all just day traders/swingers. They pump a stock and then they're out of it and they don't even say anything on their page. There was one guy "StantheMan" who was trying to boost a toy company that's been around since the mid 90s lol. His tweet was "Toys+Kids+Covid = More toys" or something stupid like that. Another one has tweeted KTOV about 15 times in 3 days and hasn't posted one thing about the actual drugs they're working on. These guys are just trying to get suckers like me to buy, and then they'll collect their 20% and sell it and not even say anything on twitter after the fact.

    Too many fools out of that twitter list that was dropped in this thread. Done with those nerds.

    I only buy best in breed. I dont own a stock under $75 and most are over $100. I like iconic brand names that are household names

    I look at it like I was being asked to invest in a small private company like on Share Tank. What are the sales? Are they growing year over year & QoQ? What do the margins look like? What about ROA/E/I? What are the bottom-line earnings? Are the big funds and banks showing consistent support?

    Right outta the gate this morning I have to buy back my PFE shares due to an announcement about their vaccine for the china syndrome. Later today, I'll short this stock again after it runs up today.

    A bit of bad luck as I was about to cash in on the short gains from this month's efforts, now it looks like it will all be for not. Hopefully it runs up today so I can test my theory about vaccine announcements.

    I used to watch that. Do you watch Ballard Power also? I have some of that in a Roth from a long time ago. Did nothing for the longest period of time. Finally alive now.

    I don't. I've actually got more disciplined with my trading the last week. I've researched a ton of companies and in the end have really just stuck with FSLY. Thank God I fought the urge to buy KTOV. That thing has sunk. But I'm in the green every day which is my main goal, even if it's just 0.0001%. I've gone back and forth trading IDEX on dips, like I may now if it drops under 1.50 again, to gain a quick profit. But FSLY has been my go-to.

    OK here is the tale of the tape from the dog styling I took this morning when Pfizer announced their vaccine news. The chart doesn't show the $350 I made by shorting a 1000 shares before the start date, but big whoop I was about to exit this stock but instead I was able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory on this one. That and the market was decidedly negative this morning and the market sentiment changed although it has calmed down once it hit resistance on the S&P when it got to 3115.

    Tomorrow is the last day before the 3 day weekend along with a jobs report, so it is totally setting up to be a blockbuster day. It has to be, this week started bad for me and has continued so I'm sure tomorrow will be more of the same. Still holding to the trend is my friend scenario even though it is moving the other way, so the short plays stay on with the chart reading telling me that it is the right move. Although we will see if I get stopped out of the other plays before the market moves my way.
