Moatman posted:CCIV is the 4th Churchill Capital SPAC. CCV is the 5th. They really put a lot of effort into their naming. You guys should look into what Churchill has done with their second and third SPAC. Their only good SPAC that closed on a good target was their first one at almost two years ago when their was no SPACs mania. Also, CCIV is far from a sure thing so I’d be careful about thinking that Churchill is a big player that always secures targets.

CCV units are already up almost 10% since Tuesday, so it's been a decent short term play thus far. Just make sure you have a stop set as if CCIV-Lucid falls through I'd expect CCV to drop back to NAV as well.

I started trading again maybe a week ago due to the GME craze. I didn't touch any of those meme stocks at all but it reminded me I had a couple hundred dollars in an E-Trade account that I forgot about. I opened it a few years ago due to this thread. I initially got it to trade penny weed stocks. Almost all failed but one, APHA, which is up 121% since I got it. So I just threw another $500 into my account to play with. A few days ago someone in here mentioned Ericsson's 5G prospects so I looked into it and it seems like a possibly safe bet so I threw $250 in there to hold for a long time. I also bought 50 shares of NDRA because you guys kept talking about it and I just figured "eh, what the hell."

Really the difference is Short-Term (this thread) vs Long-Term (that thread) They've evolved a bit; and since short-term trading is inherently a loser's game it has led to this thread being a clown car Indisputable best way to be a long-term investor is boring ol index investing so it has led to that thread being dogmatic and with little to do other than quash the occasional raid from a doctor or engineer who Figured Out Stock Market

I like this thread a lot. I love it when people discuss what they think of stocks or etfs, especially ones I'd never hear about otherwise. The only posts I don't like are "here's how how much this random guy made/lost" (who cares?) and "wow number went up/down I should have bought/sold" (just a bad approach to investing/gambling)

IRAs and 401Ks are a type of retirement account. A mutual fund is something you would hold in those accounts, just like stock and ETFs. Mutual funds are out of favor as they basically do the same thing as ETFs but worse and with higher expense ratios. MagicBoots fucked around with this message at 19:29 on Feb 5, 2021 |

How they are $1.50 ($6.75B Market Cap) off of pure bullshit about "the next Paypal" despite not having even a beta app is amazing when there are already a dozen other companies who actually have real products. Oh wait sorry they announced the ability to give them money to buy some blockchain ETFs via an app but still have nothing on their "global payments" thing.

Leal posted:That thread seems to be exclusively about IRA or 401k, so where do I go to learn about mutual funds? I figured those would be a long term thing but... Mutual funds are something you would invest in inside a brokerage account, including but not limited to an IRA or 401k. Most company-sponsored IRAs and 401ks offer employees a limited menu of mutual funds from which to choose, so the topics overlap a lot. Mutual funds by and large drag behind index funds in terms of performance, especially when you factor in fees, taxes, and fund managers (this claim has been thoroughly backtested). There are a few that outperform the S&P 500, but they tend to be temporary highs followed by microscopic or negative returns. Again, indexes reign supreme. The Bogleheads website breaks down some good three-fund portfolios based on which brokerage you use. Do not (DO NOT) pay fees to, say, buy Vanguard mutual funds from Fidelity. Generally speaking, ETFs can act as a tax-efficient substitute for a mutual fund if you are using a taxable account (many are fee-free between companies, too). For example, if you use Fidelity you might hold Fidelity index funds FSKAX / FTIHX / FUAMX in your Roth IRA and Vanguard's ETFs VTI / VXUS in your taxable account. There are justifications and edge cases for this or that specific goal/strategy/circumstance, but these examples work for basic indexing. Uh oh, that sounded like long-term advice. Hmmm... I swapped out Sundial for Trulieve. What better way to refresh the economy than to legalize pot just in time for the latest stimmy?
