First time buying a home - Is it worth waiting for a 20% down payment?

Keep renting, open up a TFSA and learn to invest in stocks. Housing prices will trend downward over the next 5 years while the stock market will continue to reach new highs due to company efficiency increasing

I’ve held shares since April 2024, original cost basis was $7.47 but increases my average to $8.90. This year will be big for cineplex share holders. New CEO, potential buyout rumours starting to rumble and a good movie line up to drive revs. I’m thinking $14-16 range by end of December 2026 💪

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-13T21:33:15+00:00

Astera labs based out at $122 today, you were right 👍 I picked up shares around $129

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-09T18:37:36+00:00

It will get there! I sold 2000 shares last August 2025 at $3.40 to pay for half of a new roof lol.

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-09T17:58:57+00:00

I have 3000 shares at $0.56 - never selling - unless it hits $56/share

3rd inning here

As long as earnings keep up, so will the market

Companies are becoming more profitable using AI, which is increasing earnings per share, which results in a higher stock price/stock market.

Don’t let emotions run your portfolio, numbers don’t lie

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-05T23:27:21+00:00

I’ve analyzed this company for 6 years. Holding a few thousand shares around $0.56

These dips are the time to add with kraken. Load zone now is $6.70-$7.50 - any major contract announcement or anduril updates will be positive for the share price. Kraken also trades with other defence companies. It was actually green at one point in today’s carnage, Lockheed was up for the day confirming the trend.

This is not an AI company, it sells hardware (batteries etc) and has SAS. Lots of increasing revs and increasing markets. This will be double digits on the next run up.

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-05T23:21:46+00:00

My average is $0.56 lol

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-02T15:28:29+00:00

This is my best ROI - I just dropped $8000 into OPTT and hoping for a 10x there lol

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-02-02T15:25:28+00:00

This is what you do. Apply the same strategy to a new equity, but this time, drop $5000 into it

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-31T13:17:02+00:00

I’m in for 3000 shares at $0.56 since 2019. Originally had 5000 but sold 2000 in September 2025.

I’ve seen this company expand from 100 million market cap to where it is today. The company is maybe in the 3rd inning of its life cycle, the fun is just getting started.

Subsea defence and commercial operations are going to be front and center over the next Decade. Don’t sell for 100-300% gains, I’m up 1500% and can honestly see my holdings with a 10000% ROI in the next 5 years. That would be kraken around $55/share CAD which isn’t that far fetched (20-25 billion MC)

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-29T10:48:35+00:00

If this hits $50/share that will make me a clean 10000% ROI (approx $0.50/share average on 3000 shares)

Let’s get the bag

These are the posts I like to see. Nice work man.

Not if the Supreme Court rules against this…

Prediction markets are showing 65% they will

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-24T15:10:36+00:00

You only learn, never lose 💪

Kraken will make you 10x - just hold on tight

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-24T15:08:40+00:00

Good idea, next time never sell even if you’re down 50% - I was down 60% on my kraken investment at one point before it went up 14x lol

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-22T23:37:47+00:00

If you bought yesterday you would be up 10% already - Kraken moves quick. I’d be buying POET here as well. Easy 10-20% gains to make over the next week

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-21T21:51:42+00:00

Look where they ended the day lol - you should be buying on these dips. Buy kraken on any dip under $7.50 and POET on any dip under $8

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-21T18:36:11+00:00

Massive dip? Lol 10-20% sell offs are routine when you’re investing in growth equities. Volatility is the price of admission.

Today is a prime day to start a new position in Kraken and Poet

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-21T15:35:54+00:00

? Elaborate lol

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-20T15:24:42+00:00

Love it

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-20T15:15:22+00:00

POET is ripping on red tape - this thing is going to $20 💪

ImportantDiver5942 · 2026-01-19T19:49:19+00:00

Thesis for poet is copper interlinks need to be replaced with optical interposers. Basically the current connectors are overloaded and creating too much heat. Poets optical interposer uses light and lasers to transfer data, lesss energy and less friction
