I fucking hate the market. AMD jumps a good 6% or so after their earnings yesterday.... slowly tapers down and by the next day near end of trading it's lower than it was before the earnings. wtf?

Happens to pretty much every stock I buy. But to be fair, the entire market took a dive toward the end of the day.

What does everyone use to purchase their stocks?

I'll primarily be using it to invest in it for anywhere between 5-7 years, won't be selling, only buying till that time.

I use my bank's brokerage since they offer me 100 free trades a year. At most I use 20.

Damn that's not bad.

Personally I use Robinhood. I would honestly never contemplate paying $5 per trade or whatever. I might not care if I was a pro or real-time investor with tons of capital. I just play around with 20k or so for shits and giggles.


By the way just sold my Chipotle (CMG) today for $708. Called it quits after buying in around $320 and $400 or so. Probably regret it, but I'm really feeling antsy - The sell in may and go away is strong within me. Now I just need to decide when to sell my AMD.

FWIW, the fed rate odds of staying flat jumped quite a bit from the Fed meeting. They are however forecasting a cut perhaps at the end of the year or January.

I am the same way. Real money account with bank, pay $2.95 for standard stock trades.
YOLO play money at robinhood (and bovada) for my 5/3 $72.5 SQ calls and the like.
OOPS, i guess trading at 100x earnings shoulda given me a hint.

Alright got Robinhood all up in there. I plan on just spending a little bit of cash each month, not a lot, and purchasing weed stocks. Max I plan on spending it in total is $500, about .2% of my take home.

Anyone try out the app "value investing 2.0"? Not going to use it but a good place that consolidates information.

Weed stocks (as much as everyone is trying to see growth) isn't exactly a guarantee.... I mean I guess my main point is that when it comes to investing in non-established markets (such as weed) there are going to be a TON of companies/people that try to swarm in and make it big.

Tons will fail. Some will make it okay. Some will be gobbled up by the biggest ones, etc...

Personally, the only weed stocks I have is MJ - which is basically a diversified index fund for weed

I did touch on Tilray (TLRY) when they made their IPO - they shot up like crazy for no apparent reason.... Then in keeping with the volatility it went bust and fell back down.

My hope is that one that I end up investing in gets gobbled up. With 500, I'm hoping that I diversify enough that some of my picks make it out alive.

Trump threatens higher tariff rates if China does not reach trade deal with US soon.

"For 10 months, China has been paying Tariffs to the USA of 25% on 50 Billion Dollars of High Tech, and 10% on 200 Billion Dollars of other goods. These payments are partially responsible for our great economic results. The 10% will go up to 25% on Friday .."


NYSE Futures off 400

Well crap. Thanks Donald.

I haven't been paying attention. Futures were up big most of the weekend. This will probably hit my BILI pretty hard.

Positives: almost 20% of my portfolio got called away Friday so I'm sitting on some cash.

Chinese stock market is down 5.00% at the moment. If we experienced a similar drop, the DOW would be off 1,352 points!

....luckily futures are only pointing to a 540 point loss on the DOW ...S&P off 60 ...Nasdaq off 187 (open down ~ 2.30%)

Yeap, next week is going to hurt... Until Thursday or something when rumors of SOMETHING supposedly MAYBE SORTA good come along will bubble up. Will it actually result in a good a trade agreement? Doubtful.

Next week is going to suck. I just want to sell my remaining AMD for a decent price and go away for a while

One thing I've figured out with investing, look at absolute price, not how much it jumps in one day. I consider the S&P 500 at 2900+ to be very overpriced, and at 2800+ to still be overpriced. Though of course one needs to adjust expectations over time.

I don't consider myself sophisticated enough to derive valuations. I base my decisions on individual stocks by macroeconomic conditions and guidance, which are still good at present.

Which is why today was a buying opportunity imo. The dip was all noise and bluster.

Don't you only buy like one share at a time?

Sheeet. I buy hundreds of billions of ruppees worth of shares.

Warren Buffet calls ME for stock advice.

I move the market.

I AM the market.*


(*TBH I havent even traded one stock so far this year. First time in 21 years. But I've been watching the market since 1982, and as usual I always have an interest.)

Looks like Trump might have been warranted on his latest rant.

Info is that the Chinese tried to walk back a bunch of concessions.

Plenty.

Just don't sell anything right now.

I think the fact that BILI has dropped less than 2% is a great sign. I expected as much as 4%.
