Off-Topic Stock Market & Crypto Discussion

There is a site called stocktwits where shareholders discuss stocks, usually that they own. There doesn't appear to be any news. Might be related to 6 million shares coming onto the market in an offering they just had? Also, they're working on a covid drug and these companies are super volatile right now.

Thanks.

A little higher than I'd have liked to see you get in, but if this works how I hope it will, a half buck per share won't matter that much.

I do like the Jan $6 calls under $1 today though.

With yesterday's upward movment, I was thinking it was going to take off today...just bought the stock, I have not been able to get options to work for me. I can hold this for a while, so no worries.
 
I would like to recommend ESGU to the board. It is an ESG (environmental social governance) themed ETF offered at a low expense ratio of 15 bps. The gambling odds indicate we are going to see a change in regime and, if so, this will move higher. I don’t believe it’s fully baked into the current price because as of now it’s still an unknown, but all the environmental tax credit cuts that our current Prez did away with for solar and clean air will assuredly be reversed if so.

And with respect to social and governance issues, it’s readily apparent people are willing to support those companies who hire more minorities on their Boards and whatnot.

As an ETF, it is well diversified, liquid, and this one is managed by BlackRock, the world’s ETF leader. I hold a nice chunk of my portfolio in ESGU.
 
The Fed will speak tomorrow. They will keep rates low, GROW INFLATION and most likely say very little about the seven trillion on the books now. The dollar won’t hold at these levels and should test .88 lows. I would be very comfortable calling a top today or tomorrow. I wouldn’t want to be in this market this time next week. Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered. Enjoy the day boys, they’re fleeting. I love capitol markets and there’s a huge opportunity here. It’s no longer on the side of the bulls. Have a great rest of your week and weekend. If you can’t hear that train coming, you’re not listening.

I like the concept, as well as themed ETFs in general, but this one strikes me more as a basket of top companies performing well (top three holdings are AAPL, FB, and GOOGL) rather than anything currently undervalued that would jump if Biden wins.

The ECB is printing money like crazy too.

It's only a matter of time.

Fair point, but those 3 holdings comprise just 17% of the ETF. They’re held for the Social and Governance themes, but I see quite a few utilities and energy sector companies held that likely are for the Environmental theme.

Do you have any ETFs you’d recommend? I’m researching the health care sector ETFs.

The wall of worry continues to be climbed as long as this sentiment persists.

The case for continued bull market for the rest of the year.

Cheap money/monetary policy by the fed; corporations investing heavily in productivity enhancing software and services and cutting costs; US companies are by far world leaders in high tech/internet/software/services and are the innovators, which will drive share prices higher.

Just playing devil's advocate, you very well could be right.

In general, I like clean energy ETFs (ICLN, YLCO, ACES) and cybersecurity ETFs (BUG, HACK, CIBR) because those are basically guaranteed future growth industries, IMO. All six of those have made me money. I also like TAN, CLOU, PHO, and ARKG a lot. Problem is, they've all been on a tear for a while -- I bought in late 2019 -- and I'm hesitant to buy at historic highs. If we see drops this fall, I'll put some more in, but I'm not sure if any are buys right now.

If you find any others, holler!

The rest of the year. Reading comprehension... respectfully, there’s a difference between now and the rest of the year. The market will pull back here. I’m guessing the S&P will see 2600. It will also come roaring back, just like it has. Rest of the year is ten lifetimes in markets. You’re not the Devi’s advocate. I’m talking about making it coming and going. I’m hoping we head into November with the DOW above 28,000. I’ll wait and see how the first two weeks of the pull back fairs.
