| Posted: 28 Feb 2020 11:53 PM PST Over the last couple of years that I have lurked on this sub, I have observed a noticeable decline in the quality of the posts and comments. The conversation here used to be much more rigorous and collegiate in its analysis of investments.
An example of one, out of many, low quality posts: https://www.reddit.com/r/investing/comments/fb6y7c/coronavirus_in_idaho/
The linked post above is highly dubious, probably made by OP to spread misinformation about the Coronavirus (because he probably bought puts). This kind of low quality post and misinformation should not be allowed on this sub. We did not come here to read misinformation, or make posts that belong on /r/wallstreetbets. We did not come here to look at memes or "get rich" schemes. We came here for high quality discussions on investing.
I am really sad that this sub has started to turn into /r/wallstreetbets. I actually hate to say this, but the quality of this sub has declined so much that I sometimes find more useful advice on /r/wsb than here.
Mods, this is not an attack on the hard work you do, but we really need much stronger moderation in this sub. It is not about limiting free speech. It is about maintaining the integrity and quality of the sub. More concretely, comments that are borderline low quality can be downvoted by the sub, comments that obviously fall below a certain quality bar should be removed via moderation, and egregiously low quality comments like above should result in temporary banning of the member.

| My Coronavirus Stock Portfolio strategy Posted: 28 Feb 2020 05:51 AM PST Thought I would add something for a change, take this FWIW. Here is my strategy: 1 - DCA I am buying this week. I will be buying next week and the week after. Catch a falling knife, wait for the bottom, blahs blahs blahs. I am buying. I am mostly in index funds, although I have positions in several large companies also. I have been around a while, possibly longer than many people here. I was also buying in 2008 when people were freaking out and I have done quite well 2 - Unsubscribe from this sub Seriously. This place has become a fear mongering echo chamber lately. Last week people were asking if they should buy at all time highs. Now people are shitting themselves because everything is on sale. I am going to Unsubscribe and try to focus more on my side hustles to generate more cash for buying (see item #1). I am not saying this to be a dick. I am saying it because it is legit unhealthy to freak out and surround yourself with other people that are freaking out. Take a deep breath. New flu strains surface from time to time, it is very cyclical. Yes, things will get a little worse, but it will rebound and people who buy will be the beneficiaries (don't buy with your rent money obviously, just be smart). Watch what happens when a vaccine is announced. Just my two cents. I am going to Unsubscribe now and go for a run. Because good mental & physical health is key. Downvote away and peace out brothers.

| Posted: 28 Feb 2020 01:19 PM PST When bonds return effectively negative yields, they are no longer bonds in the traditional sense. We're seeing a worldwide erasure of an entire asset class as treasury bonds no longer yield positive returns after inflation. The U.S. 30 Year was, before this COVID-19 panic, returning barely at or above inflation. Every bond now, for almost every developed nation around the world, is essentially a penalty.

| The thing about "buying the dip" Posted: 28 Feb 2020 07:01 AM PST The S&P at 2900 is basically back to October 2019 prices. If you weren't buying all the stocks back then, why are you so excited to buy them now? The future earnings projections and risk from corona has certainly increased. Buying the dip from a long term perspective is fine but dont think this will definitely recover ASAP like it did in December 2018. it might but this may also lead to further price declines. On an individual stock level, there's probably some values that are beginning to emerge but the overall market is probably not that amazing a deal just yet with all the unknowns. If your investment horizon is 10+ years, you're good to go but be wary if you're investing money you need 6 months from today. Keep DCAing via the 401ks and HSAs and keep ignoring the day to day fluctuations and you'll be fine long term but buying now with the expectation of quick returns is a risky proposition.

| What's wrong with buying the dip... Posted: 28 Feb 2020 08:47 PM PST If you expect to get something at a discount/fair value and are willing to accept some short-term losses? I don't understand why people on this subreddit discourage buying stocks during a market correction. You are likely not going to buy them when they reach their low point, but they're bound to go back up in the long-term, and you would be purchasing them at a discount. Anyways, I was thinking about buying into these companies if they drop to the following prices. MSFT: $140, SBUX: $65, TGT: $75, DIS: $95, AMD: $35 [link] [comments]  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Corona Virus Research and Stock DD: Part 2 Posted: 29 Feb 2020 03:33 AM PST As 19th century German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer claimed, "All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as self-evident." The Coronavirus outbreak has reached the "highest level" of risk for the world, the World Health Organization announced today. Bill Gates calls coronavirus a 'once-in-a-century' pathogen. The Dow fell over 3,500 points this week. The US Federal Reserve's Chairman stated "U.S. economy remain strong", Iran has no plans to quarantine cities, The acting US administration is lying to the public, and has barred the top US disease expert from speaking freely to the public.
Countries with First Case Outbreaks between 2/26 - 2/28
Keep in mind the asymptomatic period was reported to be at most 27 days and patients whom recovered are developing the coronavirus and testing positive again, which means public exposure in these countries could have begun weeks ago. By Monday, I estimate that there will be at least 2,000 total new cases in the above countries experiencing the new outbreaks alone. Why does this matter? This weekend the Corona Virus news will be flowing steadily, thus IMO influencing the virus stocks to continue to rise on Monday and throughout next week. Controlling the outbreak is going to become increasingly difficult. The Case of Africa With the continent's high volume of air traffic and trade between China new outbreaks are inevitable. Without treatment or vaccines, and without pre-existing immunity, sustained Corona Virus outbreaks might be devastating due to the multiple health challenges the continent already faces: rapid population growth and increased movement of people; existing endemic diseases, such as human immunodeficiency virus, tuberculosis, and malaria; remerging and emerging infectious pathogens such as Ebola virus disease, Lassa haemorrhagic fever, and others; and increasing incidence of non-communicable diseases. Governments are already anticipating demand and addressing supply chain management, mapping, and stockpiling of COVID-19 response needs: large quantities of personal protective equipment, gloves, surgical masks, coveralls, and hoods, and medical countermeasures like antiviral agents. IMO, the market for the products of Corona Virus stocks will increase exponentially when new outbreaks begin in this continent. The Stock Market Things are about to get way worse. Brace for a major effect on manufacturing worldwide. It will begin to hit full force in two to three weeks and could last for months. IMO, the only safe plays are plastic, Biotech, and Biopharmaceutical stocks. Liquidate your other positions now so you can buy back in lower. The Vaccines Stocks According to the WHO, more than 20 coronavirus vaccines are in development around the world. IMO, I am waiting to invest in the below companies once they release more data on their Corona virus vaccines. Gilead Sciences ($GILD)🔻6% this week Shares Outstanding 1,263,640,000, Float 1,257,113,299, Insider Ownership 0.53%, Institutional Ownership 85.30%
Moderna INC ($MRNA) 🔺 34% this week Shares Outstanding 362,853,000, Float 220,527,176, Insider Ownership 2.90%, Institutional Ownership 49.10%
Novavax ($NVAX) 🔺 93% this week Shares Outstanding 32,122,600, Float 31,917,176, Insider Ownership 0.10%, Institutional Ownership 21.40%
NanoViricides Inc. ($NNVC) 🔻 5% this week Shares Outstanding 3,854,000, Float 3,249,889, Insider Ownership 15.64%, Institutional Ownership 2.00%
Vaccine Manufacturer Ibio Inc. ($IBIO)🔺 665% this week Shares Outstanding 76,195,500, Float 72,305,339, Insider Ownership 41.32%, Institutional Ownership 10.00%
The Testing Stock Co-Diagnostics ($CODX)🔺 293% this week Shares Outstanding 24,916,000, Float 16,954,890, Insider Ownership 26.66%, Institutional Ownership 3.70%
OpGen Inc ($OPGN) 🔺 112% this week Shares Outstanding 5,602,000, Float 5,560,982, Insider Ownership 0.35%, Institutional Ownership 14.10%
Medical Supply Stocks "Health systems around the world are just not ready," Dr Mike Ryan, head of the WHO emergencies program, told a news briefing. The FDA is keenly aware that the outbreak will likely affect the medical product supply chain, including potential disruptions to suppliers shortages of critical medical products in the US. The US relies heavily on Chinese-made medical devices, with their supply chain disrupted domestics medical supply companies have skyrocket. Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. ($APT) 🔺 215% this week Shares Outstanding 13,021,000, Float 10,133,697, Insider Ownership 22.14% , Institutional Ownership 25.50%
Allied Healthcare Products Inc. ($AHPI) 🔺 832% this week Shares Outstanding 4,014,000, Float 2,286,607, Insider Ownership 2.30%, Institutional Ownership 10.00%
Harvard Bioscience ($HBIO) 🔺 25% this week Shares Outstanding 38,066,000, Float 33,950,000, Insider Ownership 2.60%, Institutional Ownership 67.00%
Additional: $LAKE🔺40% this week, $BIMI🔺5% this week, $LLIT🔻4% this week The USA More cases are likely to be identified in the coming days, including more cases in the United States. It's also likely that person-to-person spread will continue to occur, including in the United States. As of 2/28. there are now 61 confirmed cases of novel coronavirus in the United States, according to an update today by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These include:
The CDC aims to have ALL state and local health departments testing for coronavirus by end of next week. Word choice of all is interesting here, we already know that the CDC didn't have an ample supply of test kits and they were reported as inaccurate last week. If the were going to provide each state and local health departments with testing capabilities, this might be a signal that test kits developed in the private sector will be distributed. Looking Forward to Next Week IMO, the virus news this weekend will be off the charts. As new outbreaks occur and the sustained outbreaks continue, the demand for these corona virus stocks will rise. I still stand by the recommendation from my initial posting, in which I suggested investing into the companies producing test kits and personal protection / medical equipment. I am still currently holding $APT, $AHPI, and $CODX. No vaccine companies at the moment. I feel that there is a great deal of profit to be made swinging these stocks using 15 second candle chart & the 50, 100, and 200 day moving average. Take a look at how the stock behaved the last two days and find a plan that can work for you. Watch the volume in premarket as well on the various virus stock to get a sense of where the interest is for that day. My Portfolio Breakdown:
