Before you buy anything, make a brokerage account and read investopedia articles and/or the books in the OP list. If you don't have a broker, you can't buy stocks and if you blindly buy things without understanding how the stock market works or doing any research on the individual stocks you're buying, you will lose money and it will be entirely your fault.

Don't let gains steal your soul. I get giddy when I think of making money without lifting a finger (thank divvie bro)

Well done, OP.

I still miss RKG's OC's because I love enemay gorls, but you do you.

Is it the 'eat my balls' tweet?
All those 'bullish' tags on the LCI stocktwits make me want to sell

I only make these threads because I have to, no else does until they hit like 350 or die

Is it wise to buy stocks before the weekend, or should I just wait until Monday.

1st for TQQQ

Ding ding ding! How did everyone do this week? I'm up .24% today, would have been killer but it looks like buying a shitload of BGS after hours yesterday.... might not have been the best idea.Today we're going to a Romano's in Denver Colorado!

there are stories about how, if you took some nice small British town, there would be some days where 50% of the fighting age males in that town would have died in one or two days.
just unbelievable stories that you can read about, but reading about WWI is pretty depressing.

Far better to stay in lci for earnings. This could easily double your money in a day.

How long will you hold LCI for? At what price will you consider selling? I'm hoping to sell for at least $10, but it all depends on this next couple of months moves.

Honesty I don't think it really maters which brokerage you use. They all have zero commission traded funds for use. Even if you do pay a commission fee, unless your doing a shit load of trades at a time a month then it ain't that bad.

LETS GO MAX YOUR IRAs FREE TAX ADVANTAGED ACCOUNTS

LETS GO IRA

>Is it even okay to have both accounts?
yes

A Vanguard, Schwab, or other broker account is fine for a lower number of transactions.
Some people in these threads (me) like to buy and sell an awful lot of various stocks, buy in and sell out slowly, etc. for that, RH is better, if I had to pay a 5$ transaction on all my RH transactions that would be somewhere in the 25K-50K range, just for the past 4 months.

a 'traditional brokerage ' is fine, but you'll want to limit your transactions - just buying into mutual funds once a month or so.

What's best for a roth ira? Taking advantage of a diverse dividend portfolio and reinvesting it, or just a mutual fund or etf like VTSAX? Any data?

>Are vanguard accounts best for divvie investing?
You can't get individual stocks there, so if you're trying to buy good companies at a discount Vanguard is not a good choice. They're solid for index investing though.

just VTSAX, its basically risk free and returns much higher over time than how slow dividend yields move in stock price even including divvys.

I am 100% VTSAX in my IRA I dump in $5,500 and now $6,000 a year every January in total market fund and let it ride

None of you are going to live long enough to use your IRA. Haven't you heard of climate change?

Unless you're trying something like scalping the dividend I wouldn't. IIRC RH doesn't offer DRIP which is one of the best things you can have as a dividend fren.

Well it’s been a bumpy rollercoaster but I finally crawled back from the shithole that is biotech and made all my money back
Don’t do biotech if you’re actually investing. Investing is looking at a company, seeing what they do and whether or not it’s useful and then deciding if they’re growing up or down. If you want to gamble then you’ll have better odds at a casino don’t do biotech. You will lose. 90% of the time and the 10% you do win won’t be enough to recover.

>I wasn't successful with biotechs, so that means nobody can be

Women are somewhere in between men and children in terms of responsibility. One of those unwritten but upheld rules.

I actually made money off GALT and LCI and I’m still in LCI now but I researched them both and galt looks good just not taking off fast enough for me and LCI is a nice cyclical stock that taught me how to read the ebb and flow from a long perspective.
But seriously, other stocks that claim to have the FDA approval in their back pocket are fucking lying and taking every motherfucker down with them. I had NVAX, AVCO(bought that at 9), REPH(sold at a loss) and a couple others that were minor and I was going on “cusp of approval” type shit and nah just dead regardless I bet some people are just luckier or richer than myself to afford taking big gambles on biotechs

From what I've seen, biotechs will run up on anticipation of FDA approval and then sell off when it actually happens and people realize the company will actually have to market the drug and make sales
A notable example of this is VSTM, was at $10 when it got approved, has been heavily short

has been heavily shorted and in freefall since

So is the market going up forever?

LOCO could learn a thing or two from TACO and start selling fake meat

Back in the selloff you had sentiment readings that registered near all time lows

every retarded asset manager was bearish and hundreds of hedge funds sold out

there's a LONG way to go, pain trade is much higher

I mean don’t get me wrong there are some great growth biotech out there that I plan to hodl in (CDXS and FTSV) but for the most part a lot of those penny stock biotechs that get these crazy price points on “solid” research are straight up bullshit and unless you get someone to breakdown their formulas and abstracts then I’m sorry it’s not something your average middle class dude should be fucking around with

I'm concerned for T bros, they should really diversify
The reason being
>GE

How can i benefit from my GALT rights and how can I exercise my rights on RH after I've waited 7 years?

>after I've waited 7 years

the expiration date on the rights themselves is May 29th
the warrants are what expire in 7 years

Procedural dump. ex-dividend date was today

I'm holding Jan 2020 VIXM calls at $23 and Jan 2021 Ford puts at $10

It was not a good day

yes thanks to the power of friendship

VSTM's problems seem to be in sales and marketing. I've stopped trying to DCA because of how much I already have in that one, hoping they report excellent sales number this quarter but I might be a long road.

If your observations are correct, the obvious thing to do would be to buy biotechs as soon as you hear they are starting a trial, then sell right before the FDA announcement is made. I would love to run some simulations on this.

I should start researching a company's management more than their drugs in the future.

Fuck I really hope VSTM got their shit together.

Thanks fren.

If it's that predictable, why doesn't everyone short stonks before the EX date? Or do traders see that coming and engineer a short squeeze...

Sort of. There's also an issue of proportionality. Men are generally bigger and stronger then women, especially upper body strength. If a woman slaps a man as hard as she can, she's going to leave a welt, and maybe cut his face if she's wearing jewelry. If a man punches a women in the chest as hard as he can, he could cause major damage, really break some ribs, maybe worse.

If you buy the Rights you maintain your proportionate ownership of Galt and also help ensure no more dilution happens.

The warrants are a minor incentive for you and add to the potential should it reach it's potential. Which it will.

Remember those article about how hedge funds were shorting the VIX more heavily than ever?

How the fuck did they know...

>the obvious thing to do would be to buy biotechs as soon as you hear they are starting a trial

there's no guarantee that a company will succeed every trial it undergoes, and a company will almost always go into freefall at least temporarily if people the words "failed to meet primary endpoint" regardless of the context surrounding it (ex: VTGN, even though it was a small study using its drug not even funded by the company with a patient population significantly different than the one they're aiming for in their ongoing phase 2 trial)

it's better to buy a company that has previous success in trials and outside scientific literature supporting the idea that its drug will work

Tax applies as if it's straight cash, qualified or non

T will not be another GE. They have already started paying down the debt, indeed so far this year they've paid down more than originally anticipated.

Profit is up. Even after paying down the debt/other expenses and paying out Divvys they still show an excess of free money.

Time Warner + 5G will be the big money earners for them as will the existing phone customers and streaming service subscribers once it's rolled out.

In short T is on track to staying very healthy.

The Harry potter spin off films alone should bring in a nice haul. Still 3 to come out.

The stock is staying pretty flat right now cause they are still "merging" every bit of Time Warner into the whole of T. Plus the streaming service and 5G roll out plans are still pretty vague. There is nothing "new" for investors to get excited about right now. Which is good. Means you can take your time and buy up cheap T stock at your leisure.

Witness Disney; stock was stuck at $100 - 112 range forever then wham once the Fox and Dis+ deal/plans were laid out the stock took off like a rocket.

The Latin America division may yet prove to be a diamond in the rough for T. People in that part of the world are constantly earning more income, corporations move there cause its cheap. I'm glad the proposed spinoff fell through cause now that Profit stays with the company as a whole.

Which is best? Yearly OTM or ITM calls in a bull market?

>How the fuck did they know...

Well, if you analyze just overall trade volume on each sell off during the run up since January, you will see there has been progressively weaker sell activity on each dip. Only one of them had serious mustard behind it (March 22nd red dildo) while the rest have been either weak volume or good volume but overwhelmed but dip buying bulls. Steady rising trend of oil probably also played a role. These are essentially the same reasons I have been long on the S&P since a brief series of shorts in March.
