| Posted: 25 Jan 2021 11:54 AM PST Just a quick PSA, because we are not going to leave personalized comments on the dozens of threads getting nuked here, things that are being taken down:
We just don't care, and we certainly are not going to be a venue for anyone to complain about the moderation of another subreddit. If you have a disagreement with the mods of WSB then slide in to their DM and let them know (modmail, don't actually DM a mod, that's weird), or go to one of the subreddits like /r/subredditdrama that are dedicated to this sort of dumb shit, but don't post about it here because that'll be immediately removed. This subreddit is for discussing investing, not for airing out disagreements with other subreddits. I think I've nuked a dozen threads on this topic, and two people have already been banned for re-posting removed threads. E: I don't know how but lot's of confused comments here, "WSB Affairs" means we don't want to see people here bitching about things that happen on that subreddit. It does not mean we're preventing any discussion of any actual trade, investment, whatever. "GME up 70000% in premarket" is a thread that get's to stay because it's an investment topic. "WSB mods did a thing I don't like" is not, that's reddit drama. Simple enough. [link] [comments]  |
| GME's latest Short Interest after Jan 22 EOD is 70.97M. Cost of borrowing also increased Posted: 25 Jan 2021 04:46 AM PST After Friday's close, SI reached 70.97M from Jan 21's SI of 70.46M. Institutional cost of borrowing also increased very slightly to 24.2%. GME SI left to the rightmost column(exported from ORTEX data) We know GME absolutely ripped in Friday due to gamma hedging. Some old shorts covering could have been the main reason behind the ignition switch but I am not very confident about that. GME is already ripping in pre-market and I don't know what's triggering that. Maybe it's retail euphoria. Looks like we will continue to have gamma squeezes, tweets from Papa Cohen etc until shorts are forced to cover and close most of their shorts. I am changing my thesis. I thought we will see a slow TSLA-esque short-covering in GME. Looks like we are setting up for something much quicker. Disclaimer: This is based on ORTEX's best estimates. I am not a financial advisor. This is not investment advice. Invest in anything at your own risk. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:03 PM PST The motley fool. Too many damn ads. Emails falsely leading you to believe they have insider information. Shittily written articles directing you to a page for your credit card info. I've heard there was a time when these gentlemen were highly acclaimed stock pickers in the investing community, however I wasn't around to see it. They've been around a long time. What is your opinion on them? Is there any sound investing advice behind the noise and money grubbing bullshit? Thank you for your time. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:43 PM PST This crazy market we see today is nothing new. Speculations, euphoria, hype, "prodigy" investors.... It has happened and will continue to happen for as long as the stock markets exist. However, no matter the market conditions, the fundamentals and logic behind investing should not change. Here is a little quote from the timeless "the intelligent investor" book.
To all fellow investors, have fun and invest smartly. [link] [comments]  |
| My Bullish take on BB long term Posted: 25 Jan 2021 09:46 PM PST Position:194 shares at $19.28 Disclaimer: I started trading this January and my views are purely informational and I do not condone anyone making financial/trading decisions based on this post. Do your DD before you trade. This is a bullish take on BB and may have some holes in it. So I have been watching BB for a while now and feel the company is undervalued. Forgive me as I have not made a DD post before, I failed English in high school, and I am typing this up on my phone. BB originally caught my attention because it struck me that it survived being primarily a phone company and shifted its business to its cyber security and other software. I Put it on my watch list to swing it a little bit and recently sold 140 shares at $11. Seeing the price go up and the volume I decided I would jump back in since the trend analysis looked pretty good. Bought in at 19.28 and it almost immediately crashed, I suspect likely due to the pullback the whole market had this morning with stimulus talks being delayed. Canada Halts trading today due to the volatility followed by BB making a statement in response basically saying idk why investors are buying up the stock we haven't made any announcements Trading resumes and the price rises back up beyond open in AH, closing at nearly 20 dollars. THEN as you have already probably seen, BB announces partnership with Baidu - coincidence? Probably not, investors probably coaxed that information out of them and they likely didn't want to get caught in some insider trading schenangians. Speculation for tomorrow: BB Will open strong and meet or exceed the 40% growth of today since it just got that huge news. Baidu is Chinese google, and they partnered with BB since they need a operating system platform to mass produce their maps software in autonomous/ev vehicles with their partner GAC. Now this is a lot of China talk but BB is headquartered in CANADA which is much friendlier in regards to trade than the U.S. A little bit of information about GAC, they are a Chinese automotive giant that has came to the United States National Automobile Dealers association expos begging for investors, however has not had much success since the last 4 years have not been good for U.S. and China Trade. The LONG game: Once our new administration warms up to China after those in charge of trade take their cuts, (and they will because history repeats itself, but right now the bear case would be that Biden is not looking to change tariffs on China, playing tough until he gets some leverage is what I think is really going on) GAC will have lots of opportunity to start putting their vehicles on our roads. GAC is the highest rated car brand in China so it may have a chance in the United States if it plays its cards right, which means we could have Blackberry powered Autonomous EVs on our streets in the next 5 years. This company has a lot of value in our up and coming future of Electric and Autonomous vehicles. I am too new to this to speculate on where this stock should be valued at, but here are some resources where I got my information so you can decide for yourself: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-blackberry-stocks-idUSKBN29U28L https://www.autodeal.com.ph/articles/car-features/10-things-you-need-know-about-gac-motor [link] [comments]  |
| Ok. I think institutional investors really are looking at Reddit now. Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:20 AM PST Or they were already. But I think more and more are paying closer attention. All this talk about BB over the weekend. And then suddenly it increases by 33% today on Monday. That is more than 3 billion dollars moved around. There's no way that's just Reddit by itself. This is not a coincidence. [link] [comments]  |
| Does anyone know what happened today to cause the “crash” around 11:05 am ET Posted: 25 Jan 2021 01:32 PM PST I've been trying to look for some information on what happened, but I haven't really found anything specific. Seemed like a flash crash, but it was short lived and $DOW only dropped like 200pts. No gonna lie, it was a little scary there, saw March 2020 coming back for a second round. Still, I'd love to hear from anyone who understands this better than I do or has an article that discusses the causes of such an event. Thanks ! [link] [comments]  |
| Why would Gamestop (GME) succeed in selling games online? Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:29 PM PST Gamestop's business model back in the days was to sell games in brick and mortar shops. This worked well for Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo because they didn't have to deal with running a retail business; it was cost effective to just give a cut to GME. The gaming console companies were effectively paying Gamestop for the service of running stores to sell their games. In the digital world however, why would someone buy games from Gamestop when they could just buy it on the Playstation Store or the Nintendo eShop? I don't know a single person who buys iOS apps outside the Apple App Store. I don't know a single person who buys Android apps outside the Play Store. What's Gamestop's moat here? Why wouldn't Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo cut out the middle man that's Gamestop? If someone can seriously address these concerns, I'll put in 100k into GME shares and join the squeeze with a screenshot. [link] [comments]  |
| What if this was not a bubble - but a price correction? Posted: 25 Jan 2021 06:51 PM PST What if this is the new standard? What if with COVID, people realized they had a lot of unused money laying around and they decided to invest it in stock, bitcoin, gold and even collectibles (pokémon, magic and figures have seen huge spikes on extra-rare items). Of course, there is the side of people getting free checks and the government money printing. However, people who were getting free money were not the people who have a lot of buying power. People with buying power became those who substituted money from transport to benefitting from tax relief for their romote work (electricity, internet, etc). I can only see a crash happening when COVID is over and everything reopens (I thought this would've already happened but look at where we are now). Then again, would people start selling off their stock/investments to go to the restaurant or to the bar? [link] [comments]  |
| Stocks to Buy after Bidens "America First" Speech and US Manufacturing Executive Order Posted: 25 Jan 2021 01:40 PM PST Was watching CNBC when it was interrupted to Bidens speech. Biden said he is going to force the government to buy american made products as much as possible. He talked about cars, steel and there was an emphasis on electric and alternative vehicles as well. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by what he said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVquVGYdlg0 After hearing his speech I went out and purchased Ford GM Tesla United States Steel Corp CLEVELAND-CLIFFS INC Lordstown Motors What is r/investing buying after hearing this speech and the subsequent EO?

| Why are all GME buyers say wait til Friday? Posted: 25 Jan 2021 01:44 PM PST I heard that options expire on 1/29 for 115c, but what significance does that have? Why would the stock rise on Friday? Excuse me because I am still relatively new to trading. I myself have bought 80 shares at $69 (complete coincidence). But can anybody explain to me what the significance of Friday/end of week implications would mean for the price of the GME stock? [link] [comments]  |
| PLUG POWER EXCEEDS 2020 GUIDANCE AND RAISES TARGETS FOR 2021 AND 2024 Posted: 26 Jan 2021 04:21 AM PST Plug Power has exceeded its 2020 gross billings target and is raising 2021 estimates to $475M, up from $450M.

| What tools/methods do you guys use to understand a company? Posted: 25 Jan 2021 07:41 PM PST I want to figure out how to go in depth into a company's business model and understand the founders vision before I become a co-owner. Are there any websites or something that you guys use to get a good understand or deep analysis without too much sifting through useless information? [link] [comments]  |
| What does Gamestop get out of their stock taking off? Posted: 26 Jan 2021 02:35 AM PST I'm not an investor, don't know much about investing. But I got a couple of questions maybe you all can help me with.
Thank you. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Jan 2021 04:23 AM PST What is everyone's opinion about this company? I have 10G invested so far ! I've bought "All" the call options that expire in May from 5$ to 13$. I believe the earnings will be great. They are only valued at 800 million and the stock has a short position of 25% ! Please let me know your thoughts thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Jan 2021 04:11 AM PST It was reported that the upcoming EVGO SPAC merger has a valuation of $2.6B. However the CLII SPAC company has a market cap of $500M, pre merger. This is after the big run up after the announcement last week. Is the difference the upside potential in this investment? Or is it something else? Just trying to gauge. I assume the gap wouldn't be that big now, but you never know. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Full Diligence Post on DIGITAL TURBINE ($APPS) +650% in 1 year and a Hidden Monopoly Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:55 AM PST Wanted to share some of my research on Digital Turbine, which in my view isn't getting enough attention. The company owns a monopoly in the pre-load app space, has a lot of exciting growth opportunities, and is a great long-term buy. The stock is up over 650% over the past 12 months, so the valuation does seem stretched, but I could see the stock going to $100 within the next 6-12 months if the next few earnings calls don't disappoint. Super long post, TLDR on the bottom. What Does Digital Turbine Do?
Business Model
Growth Prospects
Financials
Risks & mitigations
What I'm Doing
Resources I looked at:
TLDR: Company owns a monopoly in the Android pre-load app space with partnerships with the largest carriers and OEMs in the world not named Apple; lots of good growth prospects including its recent acquisition + international expansion. Expensive stock fundamentally right now but good one to keep an eye on if there are any major dips. Strong buy in the $30s-40s. Medium buy in the $50s. Earnings call on February 3rd should materially move the stock either up or down so will be important to pay attention to that. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jan 2021 06:27 PM PST Okay so currently the three highest shorted stocks are: GME, SPCE, and AMC. Now unlike GME, SPCE has a TON of legitimate potential. They're vying to become the future of fast long-distance transportation, and are one of the most future oriented companies. Now that said they're still an extremely risky play, but they're no where near as risky as GME is. Could SPCE be ripe for a short-squeeze? What do you guys think of this play? - This is not investment advice. You can do whatever you want with your own money. [link] [comments]  |
| Why is there a lack of quality stock research for retail investors Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:29 PM PST Hi everyone, I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but here goes. For a little background I work as a hedge fund analyst, so researching stocks is essentially what I do on a daily basis. The discrepancy between the research and resources an institution has in comparison to a retail investor is astounding, and I was hoping I could narrow this gap. Looking around there doesn't seem to be a quality service that offers quality stock research with unbias analysis for the everyday investor. There are things like Morningstar and Zacks but they are either expensive or terrible (talking about Zacks). So I wanted to ask the community would you be willing to pay for a service that can provide high-quality research on stocks with a unbias view. Rather than paying for a subscription and not using 90% of the offered resources the investor can simply request a report for a specific stock and will only be charged for that report. Therefore you can pay for only what you want. My thought is I would get together a group of my hedge fund buddies who love equity research as much as an I do and we would do the analysis on a per request basis to start off. Let me know what you guys think? Is it something people on this forum would actually pay or am I just over-analyzing the situation? [link] [comments]  |
| SPAC Question CCIV and Lucid Motors Posted: 26 Jan 2021 12:08 AM PST Hi, I have a question that I wasn't able to find the answer online. Say that I buy stock of CCIV because I believe the deal with lucid motors will go forward. What could happen in 10years? Cciv is the same has owning stock of lucid motors, or cciv can sell Lucid motors at a later date? Therefore reducing my exposure/hanging me to dry. I just want to confirm if this purchase is the same as a long term investment. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| AI could be front-running WallStreetBets Posted: 25 Jan 2021 10:23 AM PST There is an ETF that makes trades based on artificial intelligence (ticker: AIEQ). The AI combs through mountains of data (expressly including social media and regular news reporting). When I heard about it, I was originally dubious about its ability to beat a relatively efficient market based on searching through this dataset, but I was curious. So I bought a little bit when it debuted, and it didn't do much of anything, and indeed kinda underperformed so I lost patience and sold it. But I remember an AI podcast I heard that talked about machine learning and how early on (with Chess, or Go, or other tests), humans would beat the AI easily. But then over time, AI progressively learned and then became unbeatable. So I took a flyer and bought back into AIEQ in early November and continued to leg into the position, and it continues to do well. I ran a three month chart vs. SPY and Vanguard's Total Stock Index. It is beating both handily. (This is true on longer time periods also, but I didn't own it before November). Moreover, the outperformance seems to be accelerating, which could mean the AI is learning and improving as it goes. That outperformance raised my eyebrows, and I was surprised that this dataset had in fact yielded actionable alpha. Then I heard about wallstreetbets. And then I made the connection - AIEQ may be outperforming because it is reading all the Reddit trade discussion, and is following or perhaps even front-running those trades. If you look at AIEQ's top portfolio positions, they are full of Reddit faves like TSLA, ENPH, SPWR, AMD, ROKU, ETSY, SQ, MRNA, ZS, CRWD, PLUG, etc. I don't know if my theory is correct (the AI trading methodology is a black box), but it's certainly food for thought.

| Prospects of Intel going foward Posted: 25 Jan 2021 04:17 PM PST I'm currently interested in opening up a small position in Intel. However, it is a highly debated stock and I would like to hear corresponding arguments coming from Bull and Bear. Intel currently has a revenue of $80 billion which is bigger than Nvidia and AMD combined. The delays in production of newly advanced nodes is beginning to hurt Intel. Intel currently announced a new CEO to change the management around and hopefully get things back onto track. This , however, will take several quarter if not longer to implement. But Intel still has growth story in it's' datacenter and MobileEye division. What do you think of Intel as a turn around play? [link] [comments]  |
| Why did I invest in battery recycling: Neometals Posted: 25 Jan 2021 05:26 PM PST Reasons why: - EV battery recycling market expected to grow 10x - inflationary env. with rising commodity prices years ahead - small cap, with promising set of projects and patents - pure play just for recycling - targeting EU markets as this will be the biggest EV market [link] [comments]  |
