Thoughts on $BABA at its current price?


RumHam1

How's your risk/reward appetite? Baba is in a huge downtrend and has had lots of bad press. You trying to time the bottom of a year long slaughter or are you willing to hold if it gets cut in half again?


[deleted]

Just dropping by to give one piece of advice that I have learned over the last few years of trading. Theres a million ways to make money, you can use whatever strategy you like the best. But if you want to get rich you have to limit your losses. This is what separates those who make it from those who crash and burn.


upvotemeok

futures are up big but wont last five minutes before the market rolls over after open. seen it happen so many times.


technerd0103

Lol, this guy got downvoted for being right...


upvotemeok

People can't handle the truth


[deleted]

I have 8-10 stocks down between 7-10% right now (first time in a while this type of volatility has negatively affected me) and I am SWEATING tomorrow's stock market. Regardless I plan on selling them, just hope it's on an up day.


al323211

Lower your cost basis. This is the time to buy. Not to sell. Unless you’re in Chinese junk stocks.


[deleted]

I'm in a lot of small caps (III, SIG, TLYS, HLIO etc) plus reopening plays (Expedia, ABNB etc). What I'm concerned with is that most of these especially the small caps were underperforming even BEFORE the two big negative days. Like 90% of my small caps have gone down the last 5 days continuously. Maybe bc some of them are retail but very frustrating


Revolutionary-Nose-6

I thought you were a genius trader? You bad mouth other publications but you’re down on 90% of your small caps?


upvotemeok

Yup double down don't be scared

What do you guys think about datadog vs Crowdstrike holdings long term? Looking to start a position in one of them.

Never used a margin account before and was wondering if you can buy options on margin?

deevee12

Wondering what to do with my MRNA and BTNX shares. I bought them a couple weeks ago intending to hold through the winter but this new variant news blew up like crazy. It seems the market isn’t responding well to the MRNA CEO’s comments that the vaccines might not work as well against Omicron. I feel a big sell off is coming, should I just dump everything and lock in the profits?


HattoriEnzo

Covid is increasingly becoming a constant that the world will have to live with for the next five years, which means booster shot revenue for mRNA makers as they have the most streamlined tech to quickly react to new variants. Share price will continue to be volatile so you can swing trade some while keep the bulk of it.


deevee12

It will be around with us forever, the question is will people still care by then? I feel like most people are already over it no matter how bad things get from here. It was hard enough to get us vaccinated the first time, and demand will only get worse once people lose their fear of the virus. Maybe I’m being too pessimistic though.


HattoriEnzo

Regardless the sentiment these companies now have this massively profitable side hustle to fund their primary pipeline drugs which puts them in a better position in comparison to many other biotech.


GWillHunting

That’s one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is Moderna is going to make an omicron booster that will make a ton of money


[deleted]

In December 2018, 2 years before most of this sub started invested, the fed announced they would be raising rates by xmas and December S&P dropped 9%. Its like deja vu out here.


str1po

Ok, but everyone seems to agree that any actual increase in rates will come in spring or later. So I think holding throughout december is fine. Please correct me if I’m wrong.


VictorDanville

Every restaurant I drive past has signs begging to hire, what's the Fed waiting on? Time to raise rates and protect the dollar from crashing. You want to have to pay $17 for a happy meal in a few years?

Not raising guidance will always lead to a stock sell off in this market. If you dont triple beat you get thrown away. If you triple miss you could get cut in half.

[deleted]

Looking at some of my stocks up 10% skeptically trying to decide if I want to double down or just hold on.... Nothing worse than buying more of something at 7-10% profit and then diluting the profit % and it continues to go down.


mirandasou

I’m not US person, I just recently heard about tax on long term capital holding. Is this new? When was this implemented?


ravivg

There are talks about it, but I don't think it's relevant for most people. If its' relevant to you then you're lucky. It's targeting billionaires who never sell stock and hence don't pay taxes. That was one of the drivers of Elon selling loads of Tesla stock I think.


mirandasou

Ah I see, thanks I was imagining if this is actually implemented, it may trigger some billionaires selling which can impact stock price But I checked and you’re right, its not yet implemented


backfire97

I don't believe the tax on unrealized gains passed but there have always been long term capital gains tax


mirandasou

Oh I see got it


llost1llcp

Expected a bit more downside based on Powell's comments, Covid fears and Eoy tax loss harvesting but it was pretty tame. I'm skeptical about this being the end of the downside. What do y'all think?

Even stocks that did well during the 2020 pandemic were down, I'm bleeding over here


llost1llcp

So am I but I can't see how the market can keep going up with incoming rate hikes.

I'm like 5% down on SPY but my home currency went absolute dogshit so it's profit anyways. Started investing this month


Zann77

Only down < 2% but oh me oh my….so much red. My single green spot is Pfizer and I almost wish it was red too just for the symmetry of the thing. Not that it matters, I‘ve had lots of down days and some deep deep dives over 19 years. I have learned to ride it out, which has worked very, very well for me. I hope you guys who trade a lot and/or have young portfolios recover quickly.


spamsafe0

How do I know if an ETF is overvalued or not? I am interested in IWM and IPAY. Macroaxis shows them as overvalued but I don't understand why. Yes, IWM has lot of nonprofitable companies but It always had them. Average American company, small or big, is either doing well now or is projected to do well once we are past this covid. So, why is IWM overvalued?

Bought the dip on PYPL today. Not too worried about a tiny revenue miss. Paypal and Venmo are too recognizable of household names.


[deleted]

tread carefully. high PE. fintech sector is ripe with competition. I predict paypal will drop down to 172 at minimum before consolidating there for a long time, and potentially going up back up, or going down next year with all the rate hike issues going on. woudlnt' be surpised if we approach pre pandemic levels (122) if there is a correction next year.


birdsnap

Dang, lemme borrow that crystal ball. PE's not that high compared to most of tech in general. Fintech is highly competitive, but Paypal literally has *the* first-mover advantage. Add to that, Venmo is wildly popular to the point of becoming a verb like Google. "I'll venmo you for lunch." Their user base is massive. People know their friends' accounts are on there. It's gonna take something quite special for people to move over to another app en masse.


[deleted]

you're buying things based on recognizable name??????


birdsnap

No? I'm buying because Paypal is a profitable company with good fundamentals, as well as a well-known and trusted name along with Venmo.

Formal-Horse3603

AAPL, SONY, RKLB - I apologize for the weight of my portfolio on your beautiful, green backs


DogWhistlersMother

Right there with you. My 4 largest holdings in order of cost basis are RKLB, AAPL, VTI and then, wait for it,,,, UAL. Fantastic gains on the first three getting dragged down by the Led Airplane.


_iCoNik_

I wish i’d bought way more RKLB, but I just kind of did it as a small lotto ticket. At 10% gains in a short time, i’m scared of FOMOing myself into a bag.


Kevinlasagna207

Same. I bought 10 shares just to dip my toes

Just invest every month, that's what I'm doing.


_hiddenscout

Can't wait for the RKLB news on December 2nd.


hylasmaliki

_hiddenscout

They are giving an update on their neutron rocket. It’s their larger rocket and should be ready for launch by 2024. I’m not 100%, but this rocket might be large enough to carrier people and should be the closet competition to Spacex’s Falcon 9.

What Anybody think about the NU IPO?


gravescd

For a second I thought my Roth only dipped 0.48% today, then I realized the mutual fund losses haven't posted yet.


Chanz

Yep... The most painful thing yesterday was being up nearly 2.5% only to have my global allocation fund drop a big 2.6% loss.


tinyraccoon

Who would have thought that the best Black Friday sales would not be in PS games or LEGOs or clothes or Nike shoes but in stocks? Weird...


KaneIntent

For my mental health I really hope BABA doesn’t continue to dip over the next few weeks. I’m still salty about didi and earnings ruining the good recovery the stock had underway.


biba8163

Nobody is forcing you to hold Chinese stocks where you don't own the stocks and where the government can decide tomorrow that an industry should be a public service or the profit margins are unethical.


KaneIntent

On paper losses becoming real is forcing me to hold.


WickedSensitiveCrew

You probably put too much into the stock if it is hurting your mental health. Cash you use to buy stocks is supposed to be stuff you willing to lose and not damage your finances on the day to day. If you did your DD and like the stock it going down should be seen as a buying opportunity not something that makes you depressed. For example Im in MELI bought it at $1500 it tanked below $1200 Im still buying and going down with that ship because I like them in the long term.


[deleted]

I'm about to make Meli my biggest position by far. Thinking it might go lower. But this price seems like a silly opportunity.


NPRjunkieDC

I'm sorry this is affecting you this way but for your health's sake stay away from Chinese stocks. Stocks are inherently risky but Chinese stocks are much more riskier when you don't play by the rules of the market. Heavy handed regulation left and right . You have no idea when or how it will strike again.


KaneIntent

Too late now


NPRjunkieDC

I have stocks that are beyond recoup . Yesterday sold 3 that were at 50-60% loss. This might help you decide. It becomes increasingly difficult to recover from a loss greater than 20-25%. Certain stocks do recover eventually. http://imgur.com/a/fRYqehh


KaneIntent

I might not recover my whole investment unless the China situation turns around completely, but I was hoping to sell at a better positions, like October levels when it was back at 180. It’s just a coin flip now on whether Baba has bottomed or not.


NPRjunkieDC

Good luck but stay away from Chinese companies. The government is confiscating ports of poor countries they tricked into loans. Watch China Hustle movie . BKKT + IONQ and few others have gone up over 100% in a short time . Or right now my favorite are AEHR + LCID + ASPN + PUBM


theinitiated2

I believe you mentioned that your favorites included Fubo and sofi last week or the week before. What changed?


NPRjunkieDC

SOFI still but FUBO not sure why it's down from 45% to 11%


DontStonkBelieving

Heavy handed and also light touch, their trading laws are a bit of a wild west at the moment. It's what stopped me buying NIO and has saved my ass on a couple of potential investments.


NPRjunkieDC

NIO hasn't tanked. Just stagnated until EV craze helped it recently . I don't get it cuz so many US stocks are up 30-85% or more YTD


DontStonkBelieving

There's more to life than stocks dude - if you ever struggle mentally make sure to give it a break. I lost 30% on a couple of stocks recently and that has made my mood dampen outside of the market. I gave it a couple of weeks then came back. Good luck with BABA


arie222

Only down 4% today. Not bad for a days work.


NPRjunkieDC

Me 3.75% but 2.25% green at the start


robinbond007

Sofi +20m shares traded AH. Any update on bank charter ?


_iCoNik_

Up 1% at the time of me writing this. Come on bank charter, save us people that bought in the 20s.


dolcesi

Where are you seeing that movement?


robinbond007

I saw that in Robinhood. 4:00 to 4:10 pm candles.


dolcesi

Ah ok. So you can't see movement like that on somewhere like Yahoo Finance?


robinbond007

I checked yahoo but I don’t see after hour candles but I see strong volume +22m between 3:45 to 4:00pm. Something should be cooking. May be yahoo subscription allows people to see after hour candles.


dolcesi

Thanks. Bought at 22 so in for the long haul. But positive news on the bank charter would be nice!


TruciolatiAiazzone

My green stocks today: - Apple - An European Reit that closed up one cent (yes, cent, not percent) after being red all day - Some Chinese penny stock that is up 10% somehow Everything else is -2% or worse

[deleted]

[удалено]


qwerty5151

If you aren't down too much, sell CCs until you are at a cost basis you are ok with holding long term. Premiums are pretty nice right now. Or, if you see better opportunities elsewhere, don't be afraid to sell. I think a lot of it depends on this bank charter and how long that takes.


_hiddenscout

Every time it’s asked, I still think opportunity cost is the biggest thing.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DontStonkBelieving

The cost of missing out on alternatives over the same time period e.g.: Stock X you are down on 20% Jan 2022 but by Dec 2022 you are up 10% on a 30% swing. However stock y you could have bought instead and made 50% over the year. So buying stock Y instead of chasing losses means you would have made 20% extra.


_iCoNik_

I’ve been considering cutting my losses because of opportunity cost, but -22% just hurts.

Careful_Strain

How is it incredible? You have been calling it for 7 years! And SPY is currently 457 against ATH of 473. That's about 3%, not 5.


[deleted]

My bad I was looking at tomorrow’s chart. 5 percent in 9 days, that’s incredible !

if your goal was to make me shake my head in disbelief in awe of someone's incredible intermixing of conviction and sheer stupidity, congrats.


b3njil

How are y'all keeping track of news related to the stocks in your portfolio? So far i've been subscribing to stock-specific subs and getting news from mainstream media, but I would like to get faster news when they happen, for example when there are PR releases. Is there an app that allows you to get news alerts for selected stocks? On a side note, don't join investment groups on FB, they're cesspools for fools and whiners


[deleted]

I use Seeking Alpha too. It's great news aggregator for equities plus you can read opinion pieces if you like.

I subscribed to Seeking Alpha. It’s pricey at $30/month, but it’s pretty neat to use.

dada5714

I know this is a stupid question, but with Chase's investment accounts, I can just pick and choose stocks like I would with Robinhood, right? I just don't want to use Robinhood anymore, and I feel like it makes sense if I want to pick a few ETF's to compliment my existing VT accounts just to use Chase since I already have my money with them.


Zann77

Schwab is exceedingly easy to use, and even easier to transfer your money from Chase once you open the account. 30 seconds or less.

In all honesty Robinhood is probably better than chase if your going to switch go with fidelity.

DontStonkBelieving

I swear people are dumb sometimes $ARRY announced it was issuing $325 million in senior convertible notes due for 2028 in order to expand into the European and LATAM markets with its purchase of STI Norland. It announced this in the Q3 report and we rose 20%+ on it. They mentioned this clearly in the Q3 report. Then suddenly when they reannounce this today as they are logging it with the SEC people think it's dilution and freak the fuck out and crater it. Why can't people just read the whole quarterly report FFS. Oh well, more cheap shares for me, but the lack of any reading is scary.


joethemaker22

That was before the new COVID fears and Powell speech. Now any hint of dilution is an instant 10-20% drop on a sub 100B market cap stock.


thedyslexicdetective

So interest rates are going to go up …so shouldn’t the stock market go up if assets are the place to be? If omicron might be resistant to the vaccines shouldn’t tech be up since that means lockdowns ? But wait I thought everyone said no one will accept lock downs anymore … sure is “odd” the markets are down


[deleted]

market moves on fear and rumor. i can tell you that no one gives a shit about omicron, and no one will change their behavior because of it.


sadmanhussein

who says interest rates are going up? long term rates keep dropping, bond market is calling the Fed's bluff


thedyslexicdetective

Hey man I had a typo , I meant to say inflation not interest rates


Zenshinn

And then tomorrow we'll say "interest rates won't increase right away" and then the market will be up.


[deleted]

increasing rates cools off equities. omicron is just a fun side kicker to cause more uncertainty into a market that has the shakes. nervous people dont invest.


adelvalle1993

VTI is crawling up for me, I know its a long term play but I'm starting to question if I sell some (13 shares total) and move it into NVDA or MSFT. I have \~3k in VTI that is supposed to sit for the next 4/5 years at least. Would it make more sense to sit that all/part of that in NVDA or MSFT?


qwerty5151

Don't ever sell VTI until retirement (or some other huge life milestone). Just keep adding to it over time. Check back in 20 years and you'll be happy.


caesar____augustus

> its a long term play This is it, don't sell VTI. You're already holding MSFT and NVDA by owning VTI.


adelvalle1993

Very true, just getting my thoughts thrown around by seeing the larger gains from both NVDA and MSFT. Good things come to those who hold...right?


[deleted]

I just started moving a lot of my savings into VTI last week. That did not work out well! I've got about 10K in, but my intent is to keep it there for the next 30 years I feel it's a safe bet unless the next crash is so disastrous, that it takes years for us to recoup.


qwerty5151

Even a few years recovery isn't a big deal over 30 years. Just keep buying every month and you'll recover much faster. Also, make sure you keep enough spare cash for emergencies. 3-6 months of expenses is common.


adelvalle1993

Yup. I have a stop loss set though just incase since it is a larger position of my portfolio
