    r/Stocks Daily Discussion & Fundamentals Friday Jun 12, 2020

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 01:07 AM PDT

    This is the daily discussion, so anything stocks related is fine, but the theme for today is on fundamentals, but if fundamentals aren't your thing then just ignore the theme and/or post your arguments against fundamentals here and not in the current post.

    Some helpful day to day links, including news:


    Most fundamentals are updated every 3 months due to the fact that corporations release earnings reports every quarter, so traders are always speculating at what those earnings will say, and investors may change the size of their holdings based on those reports. Expect a lot of volatility around earnings, but it usually doesn't matter if you're holding long term, but keep in mind the importance of earnings reports because a trend of declining earnings or a decline in some other fundamental will drive the stock down over the long term as well.

    See the following word cloud and click through for the wiki:

    Market Cap - Shares Outstanding - Volume - Dividend - EPS - P/E Ratio - EPS Q/Q - PEG - Sales Q/Q - Return on Assets (ROA) - Return on Equity (ROE) - BETA - SMA - quarterly earnings

    If you have a basic question, for example "what is EBITDA," then google "investopedia EBITDA" and click the Investopedia article on it; do this for everything until you have a more in depth question or just want to share what you learned.

    Thank you to all you common sense duckers that said “sit back, relax, have a beer” about yesterday. Started trading a month ago. Didn’t touch anything and I’m back in the green today.

    i feel like one of those fantasy dragons who live in a cave, just obsessing over their accumulated wealth... Without any real goal other than accumulating more wealth.

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 10:49 AM PDT

    Actually I do live in a garage. Every morning i open my account on my computer and just look at how much money I've accumulated over VNQ/VTI/QQQ/VGT and some individual stocks like DNKG and AMD.... Then I watch more videos on investing. I don't eat out at all, and pretty much just eat ramen and frozen foods so I can dump more money into my account.
    So far l I just feel like my investment account is some kind of video game, and I'm trying to get as high of a score as possible.

    I don't actually really have an end goal and I feel like I don't ever want to spend any of the money in my account either. Because then my "game score" would decrease.

    To all young investors

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 03:00 PM PDT

    I'm seeing a lot of posts from young investors (as young as 18), taking first steps into the stock market. Of course their capital's very small, often less than $1,000, and they are all excited to make big bucks fast.

    I'm just genuinely worried that a lot of these investors are taking the stock market as a place to gamble, and not put any thoughts into the stocks they purchase, and take actions very emotionally. Too many of you are eyeing on penny stocks, or companies that have been beaten down so much from COVID, even filed for Chapter 11.

    Sure you may get very lucky and double your bank account in a week, and think to yourself, "man I'm a good trader." I believe there are people out there who are truly good traders. However, chances are that you are not one of them, and 99 percent of yall will lose money if not all in a few months. This is gambling and not any different from taking your $1,000 to Vegas and putting it into a slot machine.

    What I really want to tell you guys is, try to be patient, and buy stocks with a very constructive reasoning behind it. You spend hours thinking about how to spend $20 on clothes or shoes you want to buy. Then, why can't you put just as much thought, if not more, into stocks you will be investing hundreds of dollars in? If you are spending so much money on something, you gotta be able to convince not only yourself, but also your parents, friends, people, with a load of information, take constructive criticism, etc.!

    And really, keep buying, and get a habit of buying often. 1st of every month could be your investing day, and you will transfer like $50 dollars to your account to buy another, i don't know, Coca Cola stock. These small things will add up with the compound law, and in 10 years you won't believe where you are at. (If your initial investment grow 10% every year for 10 years, you will be up 150% in total, and S&P 500 does grow approximately 10% every year on average).

    So summing up, young investors, you started early and time is on your side. Always be patient and be thoughtful with your decisions!

    Good luck to yall!

    Analyst says NKLA will drop to 15 a share....

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 02:07 PM PDT

    Just saw somewhere online about how the same analyst that said Tesla would hit over 1k is saying how NKLA will 15 dollars a share. I don't think this will happen now as there will be more positive announcements at the end of the month. But for those who still hold shares like me, whats your take on this?

    Dow futures bounce by 500 points as Wall Street tries to recover from its worst day since March

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 04:39 AM PDT

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/11/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html

    Investors on Friday went right back into the plays whose fates hinge on a successful reopening of the economy. Carnival Corp jumped 10% in premarket trading. United Airlines climbed 8%. Other premarket winners included brick-and-mortar retailers Kohl's and Gap. Those stocks were hit big time during Thursday's sell-off as investors feared the reopening of the economy could be delayed by a second wave of cases.

    Even after Friday morning's bounce, Morgan Stanley Investment Management's Andrew Slimmon said: "Given the magnitude of the rally, it would shock me if we had a one day sell-off and that's it."

    Licking my wounds today

    If you bought out of FOMO this morning when some stocks were up 15% and now you’re panicking as they sink...you haven’t been paying attention

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 11:02 AM PDT

    I'm not saying I or anyone else knew they'd drop again today. I'm saying when you buy at a moment like this morning you HAVE to understand it may be lower by closing. You HAVE to understand and react accordingly to simple concepts like that or you will lose all your money in the stock market. If you added a little this morning out of a rational understanding that the market will eventually recover even if it dips even lower first, than you'll be comfortable holding and maybe adjusting/adding to your positions if they dip lower. If you threw all your money into the market this morning because YOLO and are selling now, you're acknowledging you made an impulsive move. If this is the kind of invester you are, once you sell you need to carefully reevaluate your strategy before buying anything again.

    And Let me clarify: I'm not talking about day traders who risked a little hoping it might keep rising and then backed out, sometimes you need to cut your losses. And I'm not calling out people who enjoyed the rise the last few weeks and decided to back out today for some profit. I'm talking about those who jumped in for a medium-long term strategy literally this morning and are now having a panic attack

    BABA 1 to 8 split. Do you think it will still happen?

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 02:18 PM PDT

    This happens in July 2019... Alibaba shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favor of a stock split that the e-commerce giant said could help with further fundraising activities. That stock split, which must come into effect before July 15, 2020, will see one ordinary share split into eight. That would mean the current number of ordinary shares — which stands at 4 billion — will increase to 32 billion.

    So you think it will still happen?

    Is this a good one to buy as much as I can over the next week or two?

    Do stocks typically go up after a spilt?

    Sadly I have only played stocks that reverse split in the past haha

    Isn’t it incredible how accessible information is to the everyday investor

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 08:27 AM PDT

    Just had this thought pass through my mind. You can access almost any public record of a company in a matter of seconds and seconds after doing your research you could make an investment. I'd love to hear from some of the pre-internet era investors on how they did their research. I want to get some perspective on how good I have it being able to invest so easily. Yours truly, A Gen Z kid

    Another Interesting Plant Based Food Business

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 03:17 PM PDT

    This one is for Frozen Foods and is sold now in Costco, Sam's and Walmart. Sales in those locations is showing excellent yoy growth. They merged with a SPAC (FMCI on the NASDAQ) today to officially become a public company. It is plant based frozen foods. Here is much of their press release at 8 am today.

    Paramount, California and Delray Beach, Florida, June 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ittella International (the "Company"), a plant-based food company with a broad portfolio of innovative products available both in private label and the Company's "Tattooed Chef" brand, and Forum Merger II Corporation (FMCI) ("Forum"), a special purpose acquisition company, today announced a definitive agreement (the "Business Combination Agreement") to combine the Company and Forum as Tattooed Chef, Inc. ("Tattooed Chef"). This transaction will introduce Tattooed Chef as a Nasdaq-listed public company, with an anticipated initial enterprise value of approximately $482 million, 2.2x Tattooed Chef's estimated 2021 revenue of $222 million, or 15.6x Tattooed Chef's estimated 2021 Adjusted EBITDA of $30.8 million.

    Tattooed Chef Investment Highlights

    • High growth and innovative plant-based food company with an established brand as well as a private label presence, serving leading national retailers, with significant growth opportunities through expanded distribution to new and existing customers
    • Large addressable market in the $55 billion U.S. frozen food category where plant-based products are rapidly expanding share
    • Strong product positioning aligned with major consumer trends
    • Diverse portfolio of plant-based products with a proven innovation track record of creating great tasting, unique flavor profiles that allow consumers to connect with a plant-based lifestyle
    • Passionate management team with deep food industry expertise
    • Compelling financial profile
      • Projected $148 million and $222 million in revenue and $17 million and $31 million in Adjusted EBITDA in 2020 and 2021, respectively
      • Projected 2018-2021 revenue compounded annual growth rate of 67%
      • Anticipated initial enterprise value of approximately $482 million implying a 2.2x and 15.6x multiple of projected 2021 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively

    "After a thorough search, we are pleased to have signed a definitive agreement to bring Tattooed Chef public," said David Boris, Co-CEO and CFO of Forum. "The company has an exciting plant-based product portfolio, a compelling financial profile, and a long runway for growth. We look forward to working with the team at Tattooed Chef to further capitalize on these attractive growth prospects."

    Note: I opened a position in FMCI today averaging in at $12.50/share. I like the space, their growth rate and that they have been seeing that growth rate with only three retailers so far; Costco, Sam's and Walmart. They have the entire grocery store space to grow into.

    A simple note to new investors

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 10:42 AM PDT

    I, for one, am glad to see more people investing; to me the bigger the tent the better. A quick word about panicking. If you buy quality then time will heal most wounds. When you are researching make sure to expand the chart to 3 months, 6 months, a year and so on. If you're looking at 5 day intervals get ready for an ulcer. Have your long positions (and retirement) set before you start playing with that mad money. Be informed, have some fun and take deep breaths before acting.

    ARK ETFs

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 09:28 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    Just wondering who else is investing in the ARK ETFs. To me, it seems like a great, safer way to invest long term. However, I am tempted to just buy straight up Tesla stocks.

    How high do you think the ARK Disruptive Innovations ETF could go?

    Remember: the stock market almost always goes down faster than it goes up, but long term it almost always goes up more than it goes down.

    Posted: 11 Jun 2020 01:43 PM PDT

    One of the sayings of David Gardner of The Motley Fool. For those of us in long (multi-year) positions, remember that long term, the stock market almost always goes up more than it goes down.

    What’s causes all stocks to go down on red days?

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 04:48 AM PDT

    Is it just a chain reaction of people panic selling or is there a bigger picture I'm missing? I've been investing for a few months now and this is something that has been bothering me that I do not know yet.

    HTZ equity raise

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 05:46 AM PDT

    To anyone thinking HTZ issuing an additional $1bn of shares is a positive for the stock, put the mouse down and step away from the buy button. If equity is issued what the creditors of HTZ are doing are effectively selling short the equity portion of the capital structure. Given the debt HTZ carries and the fact that bondholders get paid first they are using the rise in equity to try and make whole (at least in part) the bonds they own. The equity portion is worth $0 regardless of how much capital they can raise so the bond holders are simply arbing the spread between where they can issue shares and $0.

    The fact that this stock is up %50 in pre market on this news is absolutely mind boggling, but if they do issue shares, its a genius move on behalf of the creditors of HTZ.

    NRGU as a long term hold?

    Posted: 12 Jun 2020 09:56 AM PDT

    NRGU is down from $35 to about $5. I were to hold this through maybe July 4th, when travel (and thus oil) should likely pick up again, would it be likely to double my money at the very least? I've been told to never hold 3x leveraged stocks, but I'm not so sure why.
