Pretty meh day for me. Ford is up. NVDA is down.
I do have a fairly small amount of money invested into various "penny stocks" that I think have long term potential. One of those is MOBX, which ran up as high as 140% in pre-market trading today. Of course I missed that run up and now it's back near my average position, lol.
I would like to believe in Disney. Pre-Pandemic, I thought they were take off like a Rocket with the addition of Disney+, along with having Hulu and ESPN. But they keep making mistake after mistake and they keep proving time and time again that they don't really listen to what their customers want.MOBX stock price can be easily manipulated. I wouldn’t worry about missing a run up opportunity to sell some shares.
It has $200,000 in cash and $4.75 million in debt. It’s also barely shorted so a squeeze isn’t going to happen to get it rolling.
I sold some IBM today. Less than 10% of my shares. I haven’t decided where to use the proceeds. Maybe one of the S&P ETFs that aren’t cap weighted. Maybe BRK. Warren Buffett just bought back $350 million or so. But that’s only a small fraction of the $275 billion of cash Berkshire is sitting on.
I’d like to pick up ASML or TSM but I’m already overweighted in tech.
Thinking about ALLY. Or BAC. Or Dow Dogs BA or DIS.

Yeah, Stock mkt doesn't seem to think a recession is in the cards.The recent job reports revision is pretty concerning to me. Companies are not hiring. It will surely help reduce inflation, but it's signaling a recession, imo, unless there are some major policy changes. Enjoy the gains as long as you can
If I were to select a car company in which to own stock, no clue where to go with that idea. Brutal competition. USA not good at mass production.Ford is doing well for me in the 3 weeks since I caught it on the drop. Up over 10% at the moment.

However, 10% in three weeks is great. I dozed off in early August, but seems like several areas are upticking.
Think I would take the money and run next week. Disclaimer...don't follow F or really any of them.

I have used that approach. Takes a lot of time because I'm slow.Not a long term hold for me. I play patterns. Looking for $13 before I sell. If no significant market downturns, I expect to be there before the election.
I have a portion of my money with a fiduciary and I have allow them to make the calls every time except once about a year back. They were proposing to sell IBM and buy Disney which I shot down. I never want to invest in a company that takes public positions on political issues that aren’t related to their own business interests. I want companies that are 100% focused on running their business.I would like to believe in Disney.

Yes Yes., I concur. Who knows, but I too think it is going up.
Except for the short-term juke moves, hard to picture NVDA going down. The mutual fund managers just continue to gobble it up.
Market Cap of $4T by Christmas. There...I said it.
I don't know. The 20 something age crowd used to love them. Now they show up to work with other unknown cold caffeine type of beverages. Not drinking regular old black coffee in a coffee pool anymore. The Bunn units sit unused.CELH is approaching a fair valuation. They are profitable and now trades around 40x after falling by 60% rather quickly.
Their distribution deal with Pepsi makes them very relevant. Maybe not almost $10 billion market cap relevant, but relevant.
They are no longer growing at a rapid rate.
Since they are profitable and could some day be in play as a takeover, the downside risk has been greatly reduced. Maybe nearly eliminated unless management really screws up.
