    What to do with JD

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 08:40 AM PDT

    Anyone think JD is a good opportunity to buy before ER in November? Its at prices that it was at 5 years ago, when it has 5 times less revenue . Even lackluster results would bring it up at this point. Can't see why a trade war with US would cause the price to drop from $45 to $23. Sure its bad for the Chinese economy, but JD doesn't have business in US. So only indirectly affected by tariffs. The CEO arrest is bad but even if he left, JD would still exist as a company. Apple survived without Jobs.

    Did anyone buy a bunch of tesla today.

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 12:35 PM PDT

    The title says it all guys. I did a hard YOLO today into Tesla hoping to catch the bounce. I really respect the balls on Musk. It's very entertaining and clearly causes panic selling. Anyone else went in on this with me ? I'm only 15 shares in. Small account.

    With gold really low, is it time to buy Newmont (NEM) or Barrick (ABX)?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 12:19 PM PDT

    I feel like gold might be reaching a bottom point, and at $11.50 a share Barrick is really tempting, but Newmont seems to be in a slightly better position, company wise. Any opinions on these two stocks? Avoid both, invest in both, or choose one?

    Can someone please give me examples of which calls and puts to buy on let's say, VFC, or NKE... where I have limited but more upside than the downside of losing the entire premium...

    Thanks

    Why do people focus on companies financial records when all that matters is supply/demand of the stock?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 01:20 PM PDT

    If everyone just decided that they don't want the stock anymore and sell it off going from $100 to 1 cent but the company is still making money and has a good balance sheet/ income statement. Can the company still be doing good even though the stock price went down? it just means the company won't have money to borrow from investors right?

    If this is true then why do people do research on a company if the only thing that matters is supply/demand of the stock and not on the company financials record.

    General Electric, thoughts?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 10:21 AM PDT

    I'm thinking of buying GE considering the terrible last few years that they have had. However, it would be nice to hear any of your opinions on this company and whether or not it's a good buy? I think it is, and I'm not very familiar with this industry, a powerful company that will not go lower than it is right now. They are still atop the industry throughout all of North America and are leading in energy efficient machinery, no? Just wanna know what you guys think and maybe you can share some insight on the company? Thanks so much!

    19 y/o college student need help

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 10:10 AM PDT

    So my plan as of right now, I make some money on the side that I would like to make into more money. I currently have a savings account and throw some money in there every pay check. I have read a bit about IRA accounts and I would like to open one. I'm not sure which of the two is the best fit for me or where I would go to open on. I am located in the US btw.

    Also I know a little about stocks and how to analyze them so, so I want to invest in things like ETFs since those are safer. As I learn more and have more time to do research (full time college student and nearly full time employee) I will start to own individual stocks. Can someone point me in the right direction? Where do I open an IRA account? Is that even the best option for me? If so, which type of IRA account?

    What do you guys think Elon is trying to do by tweeting things like "Shortseller Enrichment Commission"? I mean yea it rubs it in their faces that he won the settlement but the stock is down 5% because of it. Recently his Twitter activity has only hurt the stock price, not hurt it....

    Putting the office NFLpool ahead of retirement planning? You're not the only one

    https://business.financialpost.com/investing/putting-the-office-hockey-pool-ahead-of-retirement-planning-youre-not-the-only-one

    ' They monitor daily (or hourly) how they're doing in the NFL pool, but have no idea how their portfolio is performing. '

    Spot on! I was just complaining to my wife the other day about the amount of time people spent on our fantasy NFL pool and yet probably have no idea about investing money.

    Would anyone recommend buying the construction stock Lennar(LEN)?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 09:10 AM PDT

    The stock was at 55 a few months ago and they seem poised to make a nice profit in the long term. Actually what caught my eye about this construction stock is they are building tons of new homes around my area. Should I buy now at 43 or wait some more for a further dip?

    IPGP announced "preliminary" results and stock tanked. Why do this?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 08:27 AM PDT

    Why would a company announce results preemptively without warning? And then caveat it with "it may change"?

    Is this damage control, or price manipulation for what's to come?

    (Historically speaking) What will happen if real earnings land on this preliminary results? Will it drop any more?

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 07:29 AM PDT

    401k and full roth are through Fidelity, I'd like to buy SMCI because I believe the dip is not wholly justified fear, didn't realize Fidelity would block some or all of OTCMKTS.
