NFT: Anyone have any hot stock tips they'd like to share?

Beezer : 7/14/2020 2:58 pm
Just got a quarterly report for mutual funds I started contributing to back in 1997 - solid quarter. Still, not retiring any time soon.

Just wanted to see if anyone has any good advice on a sunny Tuesday that can make all the rest of us filthy rich!

Thanks in advance.

You can't go wrong. What's the worst that can happen? It's not like you'll start the day as a billionaire and end the day out on the streets.

I just started looking into the Dow Dividend Yield strategy, also called 'Dogs of the Dow' strategy. Not sure what I think yet, but Walgreens(WBA) is looking undervalued.

I see some big names holding onto a lot of cash/money market right now, as if they're waiting for a downturn. Current Shiller PE ratio is 29.57, seems a bit overvalued.
I'm actually on hold right now

Not only is the market overvalued, outside of tech (where everyone is in) 2Q earnings are going to be bad.

Maybe it doesn't matter, but I would wait and wait for the market correct unless you have a strong feeling about a growth stock.

you have the stomach for speculative biotech investing, I like Anavex Life Sciences. AVXL. Multiple ongoing trials for a drug that could potentially treat various central nervous system disorders, such as Alzheimer's & Parkinson's. Trial results for latest phase in Parkinson's disease dementia should be coming out in next month or so.

better staying in the funds, outside of that you cant really go wrong with QQQ, its an ETF, similar to a fund but riskier.

it mirrors the Nasdaq

typical first-time, Robin Hood app, millennial investor, so I don't feign any semblance of authority. But I have done okay since I started last fall. I try to buy companies that I know something about and have an understanding of their fundamental demand.

I do some work in the construction industry and so I know the brand names that find their way onto blueprints. Some of them are pretty-near universal. One that I keep in my portfolio is Simpson Manufacturing (SSD). I believe in home building and home repairs right now because many people are leaving big cities. The newfound viability of work from home, combined with the less than necessary (for some) cost of living and greater susceptibility to future pandemics, should cause more young professionals to leave SF, NYC, LA, etc. and set up new homesteads elsewhere. You can still build cheaply in many states of this union. Simpson products go into most foundation/crawlspace repairs or new construction thereof. It's a good company with mild volatility.

I've also done really well with PLUG Power, although its arguable how much run it has left. Same with Peloton. They are no joke. I don't see all these housewives turning in their subscriptions they started during COVID-19. That's a few names I'm keyed in on. Love to read more from others!

look into Realty Income Corp. (Stock Ticker: O). This is a REIT that pays a monthly dividend with a yield just shy of 5%. A Dividend Aristocrat that has increased dividends for the past 91 consecutive quarters.

I'm basically buying as many shares as I can of this and Amazon as I can.

But Regeneron is on the cusp of mass producing a vaccine/treatment combo for COVID. They just got $450MM from the Federal Government and assuming their Phase 3 trials go as planned they'll start rolling it out to the US this Fall.

the market really feels overvalued. It feels like institutions are doing enough to keep the masses investing so they can continue to take their profits.

Regeneron ... turned down an offer from them four years ago because it was light on the compensation package. Knew it was a gamble, but the stock options would've paid well above and beyond expectations. smh.

maybe buy and hold but some people who I trust have an opinion that until (and if) marijuana is removed from the federal schedule the stocks are risky as a group.

and if you do buy I'd avoid OTC and make sure (as best you can) it's not a scam, so many scams out there.

has run in a 30-48 range for years and years but has some really lucrative projects coming to fruition (one with Pfizer) and, if the marked doesn't completely tank, hight see 65 IMHO.
Stick to index Funds/etfs long term  
rsmith32 : 7/16/2020 3:03 pm : link
If you have some play money - sure go with stocks or some maybe some specialty etfs that should do well in the next 3-5 years (ESPO, XBI, IHI). Go with QQQ if you want to hold the FAANG + Msft stocks without having to buy them individually.

Most of the time, simpler is better

the fact you are posting on BBI asking for stock tips just shows you won't make any.

tables have turned big time from you giving me shit about driving my dads jalopy (i'll admit I was wrong about that, but holy fucking shit, this is where you come for 'stock tips'?"

Trans-Atlantic Zeppelin, Amalgamated Spats, Congreves and Flammable Powders, U.S. Hay, and sink the rest into that up-and-coming Baltimore Opera Hat Company.

Also, I hear Confederated Slave Holdings is pretty steady.
