Problem is they can't meet those backorders.
They had the backorders as the stock was tanking.

Don't forget there are dividends on the unrealized appreciation. This year it's about $6.50. On just the original purchase that would be over 30%. On the current price it's a little over 4%.
Agree but it’s the total value of your holdings today vs maybe other investments with equal or higher longterm returns that are held for the same time period
Yes there are some. But 11-12% average annual return (dividends + appreciation) for 29 years is better than most.
But that goes back to his point about “buy and hold”. Even at “only” 7% yearly he 8x’d his money over time. Need to stay in to compound those gains.
I'm still holding, but updated my stop loss order to $40 to lock in profits if it starts to dip. Bought in at $18 and change.

Obviously, this more applies to an index fund than a specific stock, but we all get the point.

Ive been waiting for a pullback since it crossed $20.
Looks good on paper but there is no point of reference.
What did the sp500 go up? How about aapl? Cost of living? Tuition? Healthcare?
You can always find something better. But the dividend was in the 4-4.5% range over those years. As they were not reinvested you'd have to ask what that went towards. Hypothetically, not in my case, if it reduced a credit card that was charging 14% or more that would be another benefit. And cost of living did not go up 11% annually over those years. I'm not sure it did in any of them.
SMCI down 15% in extended. Not sure what happened, but things seem to be getting worse. PLTR up a cool +22% on the day. LOL!
@rurahrah000 - PLTR over $50 now. Hold or trim?

7% compounded plus a 4% dividend(not sure if these are reinvested) are a solid performer in any portfolio.
Way outpacing cost of living.
Edit: Since the start of 1995, strictly on a price appreciation basis, the S&P has outperformed CVX by a score of 1100%-550%.
But interestingly all of that out performance is since Sept 2022, as it was a dead heat for the preceding 27 years.
And if we look at the last 12 years, the S&P is up 300% to about 50% CVX. For the first 17 years CVX was leading 300% to 120%.
I'm thinking this reflects the S&P leaning more heavily towards tech, while the likes of Oil and Gas as well as industrial's are out of favor. (could be an intersting discussion as to whether CVX is due for a catchup, or is tech going to continue to run away from oil stocks).

Based on Morningstar's growth chart, CVX and the S&P 500 are about equal since 1995. Stock price returns plus dividends.
Talked about it in the edit above, though I was just going off price, no dividend.
Does the total return also reflect significant outpeformance in the last 10-15 years?
CVX was better in the first half of the time period - 1995-2010. Then the S&P caught up during 2010-today.
People, meaning those selling the stock, thus causing the price to drop.
Not Gold/Silver.
Banks, and especially regionals are leading my portfolio early.
VLY up 10%
FLG up 7%
MS up 7.5%
TSLA up 12% this morning.
DJT up 25%. Though this may due to their surprise earnings call last night. $1mil in rev's.
Can he even run? Born in South Africa I believe.
For today? Yes.
I tend to think though, that in terms of election results, in the long run, what's good for TSLA is also good for RIVN.
