    r/Stocks Daily Discussion & Fundamentals Friday Jun 05, 2020

    Posted: 05 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.

    A philosophy for the new (young) investor

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 10:04 AM PDT

    "Why did I not buy x in March, I could have a 250% return right now" "Damn, I should've poured my entire fucking life savings into $BITCH when I saw that DD post on it a week ago" "I should've just held, sold way too early and now it's up $3" Been seeing a lot of posts along the lines of these statements for the past few weeks. The volatility of the market bestowing random lotto wins upon a handful of risk takers, who then proceed to (justifiably) claim bragging rights along with their newfound cash isn't helping the issue. People will, of course, daydream themselves into a similar scenario, and the likelihood of a large, UNeducated gamble increases with each "missed" opportunity perceived.

    For those of you who are in your university years or a little past, we're looking at most likely a baseline hourly wage of $12.50 (CA assumption). This is what you'd be standing on your feet for 8 hours a day to earn, a daily intake of roughly $80 after taxes, all the while dealing with the dumb shit that presents itself in every entry level position.

    Did your trade today result in a profit greater than $80? Congratulations, you have no cause to be regretful. Did your profit for the week average out to greater than $400? Nice, you just made a week's salary without enduring the arduous process of punching in a time card every day. Maybe you made double, triple that, quadruple, or even 10 times that in the span of a week or less. You should be ecstatic; you just earned several months' paychecks in a fraction of the time and with a sliver of the work. Maybe you have an actual job on top of this windfall; now you've doubled your financial stability (or more) and take that trip with the boys.

    Maybe the stock or contract climbs after you sell. So long as you beat your working average, consider it a win. Don't think "what if". Just count your cash.

    Stocks and cruises - yeah I’m glad I didn’t listen

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 05:52 AM PDT

    I said this yesterday and last week but holy shit I'm glad I didn't listen to almost everyone here saying to keep far away from the airlines and stocks. I'm up a stupid amount of money because 90% of my portfolio is in airlines and cruises right now. It was a no brainer especially with airlines

    https://www.mprnews.org/story/2020/06/05/us-unemployment-drops-unexpectedly-to-a-stillhigh-133

    Minnesota Public Radio

    The Labor Department admitted that government household survey-takers mistakenly counted about 4.9 million temporarily laid-off people as employed. The government doesn't correct its survey results for fear of the appearance of political manipulation.

    Had the mistake been corrected, the unemployment rate would have risen to 16.1 percent in May. But the corrected April figure would have been more than than 19 percent, rather than 14.7 percent.

    This market is mad

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 12:15 PM PDT

    I'm not super bearish, but I must say this market has gone mad.

    We are back within 5% ish of all time highs which were already based on generous valuations and general optimism.

    There are factors boosting valuations on the market like extremely low treasury rates, repos and QE, but, at the end of the day, risk is a lot higher than 4 months ago and future cashflows for most major corporations are reduced.

    The risk of a second wave is definetely not priced in nor are Q3 earnings that will be awfull for anything related to travel, tourism, brick and mortar retail, etc.

    I would not advise to yolo everything on puts, but be carefull, hedge your bets and don't be too hasty to jump on that V shaped recovery train.

    Airlines

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 09:32 AM PDT

    I regret not dumping more money into Boeing at $100 or even cruises or airlines. But at least I learned my lesson. People were saying Boeing was failing and it's gonna go bankrupt. But now the price is at $200... also everyone is waiting for a 2nd stock market crash? What happened to "never time the market"

    $NOK - a massive dark horse on its way up.

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 10:45 AM PDT

    My fellow brothers, if you followed the ET play carefully, you've made +600% today. I've cashed out and now looking for another short-term play. In the meantime, here is a great long term play if you have the patience.

    $NOK is one of the most overlooked and forgotten stocks in the tech market. Although it is true that they are no longer the company the used to be (a dominant phones manufacturer) which is why the stock had gone on a long and extensive slide. However, that's exactly the point a lot of people are missing – it's NOT the same company anymore. Although they are still making phones, their focus had changed from phones to telecommunication equipment. In my opinion, they are the most promising and undervalued 5G player in the game.

    First of all, look at how their financials have improved over the last 16 months. Since this part is easy to look up, I'm not going into details. Check their SEC filings.

    Now, the political landscape has turned upside down compared to last year and is now a lot more favorable to Nokia than ever before. With all the China commotion and numerous accusations, Huawei, the leading 5G player, is now growing a very bad reputation in the Western part of the world. The Trump administration has already signed an executive order to focus on 5G telecommunications development independent from China.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/15/business/economy/commerce-department-huawei.html

    TELUS, a Canadian telecommunications company, recently announced that it had selected Nokia and Ericsson to deploy 5G services across its network.

    https://finance.yahoo.com/news/telus-chooses-nokia-ericsson-equipment-134101823.html

    Believe me, Europe is going to turn their backs on Huawei in a very near future because daddy (uncle Sam) said so. Guess who all the contracts will be divided between? Nokia and Ericsson. The recent falling out of Canada and China (see the Huawei extradition case) only added more fuel to the fire in their relationship. Nokia is also signing new contracts left and right (yes, Ericsson does too) and growing its presence in India (probably, thanks to the CEO). Now, a new CEO will be taking over the chair in September, who is going to focus on expanding Nokia's presence in Europe and Asia.

    The US is also going to stay away from Huawei, although there are many people who claim we are too dependent on China to break ties like this. What those same people forget is that putting all the blame on China is basically a 100% chance for Trump to get re-elected and believe me, he is not going to let this chance slip away. In my opinion, it is silly to apply TA to this stock in this environment. This is more of a political play than anything else. COVID-19 and the country-wide riots have basically cemented the already sure scenario of a mass-scale surveillance. 5G equipment is about to start spreading faster than the Spanish Flu back in 1900s whether you like it or not.

    Nokia has been on a fire run from 2.40-ish to today's 4.49 as of this post. It's been upgraded to buy by a few major investment banks (including JPM).

    My positions:

    • Jan 2022 10c which are already up 50% since I got in and we haven't even started yet.

    • Jan 2021 – 7c or 8c.

    • Shares

    In my opinion, this stock is going over 10 by 2021 and to 20s by 2022. Get in while it's still cheap or stay back and watch it fly.

    Good luck!

    For the inevitable, "is now a good time to buy Donkey Kong?" posts

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 07:58 AM PDT

    Look at DKNG today, slightly in the red, hovering around $40. If you believe in DKNG (either long or short term) and I mean if you really believe in them, then consider buying today, so you're not on this sub posting is now a good time to buy DKNG when it rallies to $45 on the next announcement. Just my $.02.

    $BABA New Resistance @ $220, Eye for Breakout

    Posted: 05 Jun 2020 12:22 PM PDT

    Called the rise in Alibaba a week or so ago. Way too much positive press from articles and analyst target price adjustments for those gains not to happen. Encountering pretty strong headwinds at the 219-220 range though. Keep an eye on this as it could serve as a new platform to make another leap from. Of the frontrunners this situation has produced, Alibaba is set to contend with the best of them.
