OT: Stock and Investment Talk
- Thread starter RU-05
- Start date
That can also be interpreted as everything is in a bubble because of today’s interest rate environment.
I think the mega techs will go to new highs after their earnings In a week. Even NFLX earnings came out and was bad and started to fall down 5% but came right back after a few minutes.
Their performance and earnings justify nice new highs. Hope they keep rolling. I'm heavy into the big 5 (which includes MSFT, not NFLX).
Yup, good timing on the posts. Just saw NFLX:
Netflix beats on paid subscriber growth, but misses earnings expectations
Netflix reported earnings after the bell. Here are the results.
The # of subscribers can't keep going up at the same rate. They need to start maximizing the value of each customer.
I got rid of NFLX but huge into AMZN and MSFT and Apple.
The reason for AMZN and MSFT is because both beat the earning estimate big last quarter but didn’t go to new highs until months later. Apple has the smallest % increase in the first half and will catch up the second half. Just my opinion. Also GOOG ran up so much in the first half already.

Seriously though, I posted the Cooperman quote originally, I'm not arguing against him here.
Sad that so many people think this. I just don't see it:

The Covid-19 pandemic has made parents even more pessimistic about their children's future, according to a survey by Pew Research.
Just Boomers finally realizing how easy they had it.Sad that so many people think this. I just don't see it:

Just trying to motivate you to do some critical thinking instead of click bait headlines. I agree with Cooperman but what he doesn’t say is which way the rate will go.
absolutely true. to think otherwise is crazy given the growth in other mkts we allowed and supported while having the resources and pop we do have. All those feelz good people shouldn't give a dam if someone in some commy $hithole has a better living standard over their own kidsSad that so many people think this. I just don't see it:

There was a spike in that sentiment after the oil embargo in 73-74. And it stayed that way through the shitty economy that lasted until 1982.
I agree with pretty much all of this. I still like GOOGL/GOOG, though. They didn't have huge run-ups in the past few years but the company is a money printing machine.

We live in such a bifurcated time. Yes, many are doing so well now. However, for the have-nots, it is a hard time to thrive.
Yeah, we graduated from college and all got (inflation adjusted) multiple 100k a year entry level job offers in exactly the field we wanted. At least that's what how the popular myth goes that I've been hearing for over 20 years. There were good time and bad times just like any other generation. I loved hearing during the Great Recession that the Boomers never had a bad job market. I said you don't know many graduates from the classes of '74-'75 and '79-'82. And the single BEST time people had it was for the classes of '96-'99. Boomers never had it so good, but it didn't cover a generation, just part of it.
But adequate income to save is partially, and I repeat partially, how responsible you are with respect to spending.
What click bait headline? I listened to his interview and thought that was an interesting quote.
Well wouldn't that question apply to whatever the reason was?
I doubt there was one single reason as to why the market dipped, but why it rebounded is probably not because those that were selling had a change of mindset. More likely there was money on the sidelines waiting to pounce.
So tired of d-bag Musk. Quote of the century: “I might pump but I don’t dump.” Hmmm, when does Tesla report earnings…

Ethereum price rises after Elon Musk confirms he owns the cryptocurrency
Musk also expressed his support for cryptocurrency in general, despite environmental concerns related to mining.
Cramer and Carolyn Borodin Fibonacci confirms my feeling S&P will be up and Amazon one of best stocks currently forecasting 3,800 , pretty much my FC.
It will be interesting to see how much we leave our daughter. She will at least inherit one hell of a shore house! We will allocate some to our nephew as well. My sister and her husband do okay, but are not world class savers (however, definitely not in the irresponsible camp).
I'm close to a big promotion, so the savings party will only increase.
That’s great, you always had the right formula in saving for the long run. I also account which of my relatives have been really successful in my inheritance. It really should be only a safety net and hope they pass it to the next generation.

Sounds like there are still a bunch of chicken littles that still don't believe in this economy and market. Can you short the 10-yr? LOL.
