OT: Stock trading

One interesting point is the resale value of a used EV car. After the battry life has been reached (unknown, say 5-7 years), the buyer must also buy a new battery - for $20-30K. What does that do to the resale / salvage value.?? Would u buy a used EV??

Electrek just had an article on a Model 3 with 100k miles. It showed 5% degradation. On EVs with active cooling (most these days) as long as the battery was used properly they should be fine. Resale value is extremely high on Teslas.

RUN remains on fire. Wish l still had the bigger position I had but happy to have some.

I grabbed TAN and another clean energy ETF, because RUN's actual financials are just crappy. Feel like playing the industry is slightly safer even if is still a gamble.
 
Forgot that I also grabbed NVIDEA two days ago. Up 10% since Monday.

need them to grow. That’s how you end up with incredible, even market beating returns. Because 10 years in that 3.5% yield you bought is now a 12% yield.

I read an article that said people who bought proctor and gamble in like 1985 are now getting 33% yield dividends or something outrageous like that.

That is absolutely incorrect and suggests that earnings and cash flow are the ultimate drivers of value.

No, check the last 3-5 pages, they were discussed.

I saw airlines and such discussed but that was less about their actual price and marketing timing than their actual dgi characteristics

Yes. I largely buy different things in different accounts. Dividend growth stocks or ETFs of them are Traditional IRA and 401k holdings for me. I don’t expect big price improvements but many such companies are fairly stable and the dividend provides income. My Roth gets more aggressive growth targets. My main account is really a blend of all of that plus bond funds.

The challenge at the moment is that oil stocks are some of the best dividend growth stocks and are way down. Telco is down too.

I’ve got some 10 stocks in my Roth and another 8 in a brokerage.

I wish my 401k allowed me to buy individual stocks. Such bs that they don’t. My goal is to never have to touch principle and just live off the dividends...probably starting at 80 with the way we’re moving as a society lol

My 401k is all funds too. I am about 10 years from retirement, and will need to start shifting to less risky income producing assets eventually. I did that a little in the 401k, probably was a mistake.

I’d much rather have stocks with big returns that don’t pay a dividend than dividend stocks with bad returns

I prefer cash flow. Price is an opinion. Cash flow is a fact. I’d rather never touch Principle.

But there’s more than one way to win at the market. That’s part of the fun.
 
Anyone have a good take on CRISPR, and similar stocks?
 
anyone have WKHS? Bought it at $17, currently at $28.50 now. USPS decision is tomorrow. If they get awarded the contract it will boom, if not it could crumble. I've heard mixed things but what do people following this think?

Good luck. I got in WkHS a little late a couple months ago around 17 also and sold on its way down at no profit. Glad you’ve done well from this. I’m guessing this price builds in the overall health of the business, not just the USPS hope. I won’t chase it here but I think you’re in good shape to hold it, USPS deal or not.

Looks like there’s a good chance Hindenburg slams them tomorrow.
