people were posting their positions in the thread, it was kind of a bandwagon effect. the tally came from counting through posts. the counted assumed that no sold out of their position unless they announced it, and that everyone was telling the truth about how many shares they bought, so the count should be take with a grain of salt

Give NDRA credit, they nearly pulled off the pivot from sous videing rats to detecting fatty liver disease. If only somebody over there knew how to apply for FDA approval... vvv that quoted Space Fish post below was from May 16, 2021. On a split adjusted basis NDRA closed at $41/sh during the previous trading session. Today it closed at $2.05, for a nice and even 95% drawdown Agronox fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Apr 13, 2023 |

Tokyo Sex Whale posted:In the US there's both a shortage of housing and lots of vacancies but rents a lot of asking rents aren't being reduced because it would make loans callable and this whole space is uninvestable at the moment imo. Canada might be better though. Baddog posted:
Crosby B. Alfred posted:As far as capitalizing on it, it kind of feels to me that there could be a huge residential real estate rush but the problem now is that despite the growing population developers might have built too many units in the short term and with the upcoming recession vacancy rates are expected to increase at time when we really do not want that happen because it'll likely hurt long term development and prices will likely spike in the future. Man that's interesting the sentiment difference couldn't be more night and day. I think there would be very few in Canada that are expecting a housing crash along with a recession. I mean I think I'm a turbo housing bull, but vacancy in Canadian cities is like bumping along 0% so it's doesn't seem at all a similar situation if there's a feeling that in the USA vacancy is too high. The Ontario government for example has said it needs to build 1.5M homes in a decade to make up this enormous shortfall of homes, and apparently Ontario has never before, even at its best, built more than 850,000 in a decade. Other provinces are in similar trouble. So yea Canada is deep in this hole and unlikely to crawl out of it any time soon. All that means a sustained high floor on rents and that there should be lots of rent appreciation. Femtosecond fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Apr 13, 2023 |

mrmcd posted:Is BUD really taking a 4% haircut for no reason than dumb poo poo right wingers are mad they hired a trans person? Outside of the hoopla, BUD was a stock trading at its yearly high, up almost 50% from its low 6 months ago. A reversion to the mean seems sensible enough. I'm considering shorting it, although shorting stocks has almost never worked when I've tried it before.

Re the Bud thing, if anyone cares this is a great post on the history of Bud being the gay beerProkhor Zakharov posted:So I figured I'd add a bit of context to how deeply hilarious the whole Bud Light situation is given my amateur homo historian hobby. You see Bud, and especially Bud Light, have been gay beers since the 70s, in some areas they were THE gay beer, I myself drank roughly a metric ton of Bud (with salt and lime as God intended) at LGBT+ bars in my college years. "But why?" you ask, how did Bud achieve this status?

I bought a 6er each of Budweiser and Michelob, the vanilla, not light/ultra/whatever version, back in my mid 20s homebrew beer phase to do some kind of "craft brew taste calibration" or whatever the gently caress, and I remember them being pretty tolerable as a standard beer. Haven't tried the stuff since but if you're looking for a tolerable beer that's a bit lighter than sam Adams the non light domestic beers are ok. That said I'm about to go pick up a sixer of Shiner Bock beer and go grill some burgers in the back yard. Last time I tried a light beer was probably at some backyard get together and that's all they had. Even the smallest country bar with pickups and camo hats has at least one tap of craft something these days

Sharing a small win: put a small amount into the a few of the S&P bank stocks a few weeks ago, when the news cycle was talking poo poo about bank runs and imminent collapse. Now, $C is up 12%, and $BAC & $WFC are up 6%. I got lucky on that one I guess. Was trying to apply the "blood in the streets" advice to trade on market emotions. However, what I'm trying to figure out is when I'm supposed to close the positions... because since I'm trading on emotions rather than valuations, I don't have any firm target. What % return do you all prefer to take profit on, when you don't have a hard price target to wait for? The advice I've seen is: "if the position is good enough to brag about, it's good enough to close out". So, maybe the right time to close out is today because most likely it'll correct tomorrow... and emotions are always short-term swings rather than long-term expectations.

If you're trading on market moves like that, you sell when the market stops moving and look for another thing to buy, because just sitting on a stock that is not moving (or rather, is only moving in sync with the rest of the market) is taking the big risk from being in an individual stock while only reaping the identical reward you'd get from being in a much lower risk index instead. Similarly, if your investment thesis has been fulfilled, you have no new thesis on which to be in this stock, you should close the position. So in this case: your investment thesis was "bank stocks are artificially low due to this news event, I will buy these discounted stocks" and if they are no longer discounted then your thesis is fulfilled and it's time to sell. All that aside, it's also OK to set a profit target and close when you hit that target. That'd be sort of a different thesis or a refinement of the thesis: e.g., "bank stocks are artificially low by 15 percent, I will buy these discounted stocks and sell when they recover that 15%" is a refinement of the previous thesis that comes with actionable targets. I don't think finding out what targets other people have set is very informative because IMO you should be setting a target based on each specific thesis, not having some kind of generalized "rule" that you always go with, because stock moves can be for any amount between -100% and +infinity% and your targets should be based on some combination of your thesis, tolerance for risk, investment timeframe, and greed, and not on what other people's tolerance for risk, thesis, timeframe, and greed number happens to be.

So we will be able to give you better clarity on timing before too long." highly suggests that banamex will be figured out this summer (maybe even before next earnings) and buybacks will resume soon after. you can tell they wanna be done with it and are now looking at two distinct ways to exit. I'm not sure if I will wait around to find out, but, if I do exit $C will be on my shortlist to swing back in on later.

LanceHunter posted:True major US default is basically a “nukes are flying” situation. No good solution there. Biden will mint the platinum coin before it gets to that. So the true opportunity is to get your awesome Ocean’s 11 crew to stake out the intersection of H Street and 15th Street in DC so you can steal the trillion-dollar coin as it makes its way from the White House to the Treasury building. (With a backup crew in Lafayette Square when it turns out they have an incognito runner transporting the actual coin on foot via that path.) Biden is not going to mint the coin. Probably what's going to happen is things start to get rocky as we near default, the market looks like its going to crash, and donor pressure starts to get intense. McCarthy introduces a bill that does only a few cuts to something no one cares about, like the arts or immigrants, and gets just enough of his own party to get on board, along with 100% of democrats. Crisis averted, but then McCarthy is immediately deposed as leader because the cuts weren't big enough. Point being, it's not going to be road warrior, but the market will be feeling this and I think it will probably induce a recession if one isn't on the way already. I plan on buying the dip

Outside of idly flipping through the channels at a random hotel I can't think of the last time I watched actual broadcast television for more than 90 seconds; PBS is not long for this world, they did not make the jump very well They do have a good YouTube series that occasionally pops up on my feed called "Eons"

There was a period where I was watching stuff through PBS's streaming app as often as I was watching Netflix. Alas, that got gutted when the local affiliates threw a fit and made them hide most of the content behind a paywall (called "PBS Passport", a paywall you can only get through by donating to your local station). They do also have a bunch of short-form stuff out there through PBS Digital Studios. Most of that content is outsourced to different companies who do the production, though. For example, PBS Eons is made by Complexly (an arm of the Vlogbrothers empire). PBS SpaceTime is made by Kornhaber/Brown. Some of that content is still produced by PBS affiliates, but those are generally the less-popular programs (ever heard of PBS Voices?)
