OT: Stock and Investment Talk

RIVN seemed to bounce off that $10 level, and is up today, perhaps riding some TSLA coat tails.
TSLA is blowing up. Back to about even with my small RIVN position. I need to do some research on SOFI. Seems like a big rally into earnings may equal a pullback even with a positive report.

I’m sitting on a rather large SOFI position that was deep in the red forever. Now green. I think there is more room to run here but need to decide whether to sell or hold into earnings. I like what they are doing on the loan and credit side. If I wasn’t so locked into using Chase/Fidelity for just about everything I would be a SOFI customer. Looks like a great product/platform.

I wonder if MSFT (or TSLA, or any other tech company) would actually use BTC for something besides an investment. Is there a "lightning" type use case possibility still out there?

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but we seem to be beyond the point of the most recent BTC post halvening move resembling previous moves. I think that comparable is off the table.

But we have never seen BTC, after a big run up, basing at/near record highs like we have seen BTC do for the last 6 months. Typically it runs past previous highs, setting new significantly higher highs, then quickly falls back. But not this time.

I just dable with charts, but it def looks like if it breaks through those highs, this thing is off and running.

Last two cycle’s ath came at 24 and 25 weeks. We are at 26 weeks. Still very much following a similar pattern to previous halvings.

Agree about the overall trend/chart. This amount of consolidation is setting up nicely.

+1
6 months after a halving is normally when the bull market really begins. SOL is pumping over the past few days.

I'm guessing the trend was sharply upward for those 24-25 weeks. This 26 weeks is sideways/slightly down.

Granted, this time, I think people were running the stock up in preparation for the halvening.

Speaking about pumping, GEV approaching $300 after a bunch of price target upgrades. I'm now up 85%. Perhaps a bit extended? LOL! Hmm.....

How exactly the ETF is impacting this cycle is the big unknown.

The clear cycle winner has already been crowned. $sol and sol alt’s are going to get silly
I still have a nice bag of SHDW. I see little signs of life from time to time, but no major pumps yet. SOL is firmly my #2 position now.
 
Super stonk + Bitcoin. @Knight Owl has to weigh in on this.

I’m with the Board on that one.🤣
BTC has a “market cap” that would already make it one of the largest companies on earth and I’m guessing 50 years from now BTC will be a footnote in the history of “money.” At least tulip bulb bubble buyers got tulips!
MSFT has melted back up to $427.50 at this moment and still seems very stonky as the BigTech oligopolists would never allow some promising unknown AI startup to stay independent and become a threat. They pounce on these startups faster than Elon Musk pounces on and disseminates disinformation.😆
Glad to see gold rally this year though (I don’t own any but at least it sorta makes sense historically speaking).
I did see today that Tether is in trouble with the government because when it comes to their “customers” they’re not bringing their best apparently.😂

Fake Tether headlines are a hallmark of Bitcoin bull runs. Love to see it

What’s does the Bible say the Bitcoin to gold market cap ratio should be? I mean surely “digital gold” can’t be just a relatively short-lived bubble, can it? What about Doge?

Very exited to see the work the Department of Government Efficiency does
 
We should have invested in Knicks' guard Mark Jackson's 1990 Hoops card.
It's now selling for over a grand.
Several years ago,it was going for 2 cents.
Then,someone discovered in the background The Menendez Brothers sitting courtside.
With them back in the news cycle,it's soaring again.

Not sure were you saw that price. I just sold a ungraded one on eBay for $15. You can look at completed sales and the majority are going in that range.
 
Typical SOFI.

People just realized Musk say a lot of things that are false.
Pretty good report for SOFI, but getting whacked since the growth is in traditional banking, not more profitable fintech activities.
 
Just checked the prices of DJT puts and calls. Incredibly expensive. No way I'd buy either.
 
Wow, huge Q for GOOGL powered by AI:

(Reuters) - Google parent Alphabet topped third-quarter revenue and earnings expectations on Tuesday, helped by an AI-driven 35% surge in its cloud business as well as a jump in its digital advertising revenue.

Alphabet shares, which closed up 1.8% on Tuesday, were up 4.4% in after-hours trading. The stock has risen nearly 22% this year, in line with the broader market.

CEO Sundar Pichai said in a statement that investments in AI were "paying off" through use of and sales in its Search and Cloud businesses.

Perceived as slow to catch up with Big Tech rival Microsoft in the AI race, Google has been beefing up its Gemini AI chatbot and working out more improvements to its AI-powered search offering. The company is continuing to spend big on AI.
