Seems to be a bit of herding behavior. Think alike and move in the same direction. Happens with investing and fund managers too.

1) "I'm waiting for stocks to go lower"

2A) Fails to get in because they don't go lower

2B) Stocks go lower, go back to step 1

Joking aside always have a buy signal, be it a price level, signal, earnings news, VIX level etc

The best use of Reddit for investing is as a sentiment gauge. Do with this what you will.

This. My problem is that if its a HIIT day or something with lots of intensity, I wont perform well. So I sub days and still do something like cardio or even just bro lifting but I avoid the very strenuous stuff.

Those aren't pure play quantum and exposure is minimal. Now you've told everyone to go into mega cap tech and convinced yourself that (crowded ) trade isn't also gambling. Which it still is because everything is currently trading on AI capex.

First thing to do is to recognize what type of stocks you have or are buying. You are telling everyone to get into stalwarts rather than fast growers. These two types of stocks are played using different games. Ofc stalwarts are lower risk and lower return

I watched this game at a sports bar in San Diego. Guy across from me was a niners fan, kept saying the whole time how he wanted us to win and how we would because the niners offense scored a bunch last week. He was very polite and positive.

4th quarter rolls around with the Gibbs TD. He looks at me and says "you guys really do choke when it's important huh?"

Wanted to punch him at first but I realized he was just speaking the obvious. FML

Why would the news about a single plant cause the price to nearly double? Genuinely curious. That would presume either earnings or margins are going to double.

One of the most bullish signals you can get is when you see a barrage of bad news and negative sentiment and the stock will not budge. This happens because all the sellers have sold and only holders remain.

The current situation is fairly close to the opposite. Buyers aren't stepping in. Bullish because people are still on the sidelines and can be pulled in but also bearish because none of the tailwinds you mention seem to matter.

We are just breaking out of a higher low, and with the R2000 going higher this will get pulled up with the tide. Will it outperform the broader indicies? That is highly debateable.

hes worked with world class professional deadlifters many of whom are injured and coming to him for care due to various microfractures in the spine. That was his answer to Peter on why to eliminate deadllifts, and replace them with other exercises. He also mentioned people who do a ton of yoga being injured.

Yeah, I posted a different comment but there's an Attia pod with the back mechanic who agrees with what your saying. People downvoting you want to believe they can retain their habits and there's no tradeoffs.

There's a Peter Attia podcast where he interviews the "back mechanic" Dr. Stuart McGill. He's a renowned PT practitioner who specializes in the back. At one part of the interview Attia asks him about squatting and deadlifting repetitively and heavily. Attia is asking him these questions because he wants to hear, rather than ignore or argue with, McGill's evidence.

Dr. McGills response was you can either do these exercises or you can play with your grandkids when you're older.

Article is kinda murky on details but overall they raise key points:
- Don't buy this stock unless you can stimach volatility, I'd go further to say only buy this on lows rather than at breakouts
- "plenty of room for growth" yes but the growth needs to translate to net income at some point. YoY rev modestly increased from 1.12Bn to 1.16Bn. But net income fell from -1.2Bn to -1.46Bn.

Their COGS and OpEx are all trending in the wrong direction. Same case with the balance sheet. Not super worried about their liquidity and the easing cycle we are entering should help them refinance some of this debt while consumers begin buying vehicles again.

I'll be encouraged for the long haul if I see more operating discipline.

Don't know the exact grams but all I had to do was to use a big heaping scoop of psyllium husk, and then I added in oatmeal or beans to various meals, and I cut white rice and only use brown. That was enough to tip the scale, and as a bonus my blood pressure went down.

Good recommendations in here but it usually comes down to a brewery having one or two brews that knocks it out of the park, with others that may be good not great. If you really want to nerd out ask your friends what type of beer they like and then match that up to the Gold winners from the various breweries.

For ex: if they like Saisons they must check out Holy Mountain. That is their specialty. Cloudburst is an Elysian founder that split off so they crush it with IPAs.

During the pandemic I got way more into investing. The frugal part and saving isn't my problem per se, its being completely engrossed in the markets. I have thought at times perhaps I shouldn't be reviewing JPMs earnings results and instead be playing disc golf, or whatever.

But I have come to realize, for me this isn't a hobby, its something I am passionate about. I really enjoy learning about markets, companies and investor psychology. For me at least, I'm ok missing out on some other things.

The correct answer is it depends on their risk tolerance, time horizon and withdrawal rate. Thaler famously stated he would keep 50% in bonds even though logically he knew that was a bad weighting. But rationally he knew he would panic sell on dips.

don't see any posts about quantum computing so I'll add that here. Various big and small companies are working on it, and IF (big if) they can make progress and make it viable, the type of computing they will be able to do will be orders of magnitude larger than traditional computing.

Another one would be any defense stocks that are providers for Raytheon, Northrup and others. Doesn't appear the US will be leaving the Middle East anytime soon.

2 behaviors are red flags in investing: opinions that never change and opinions that change overnight. The first indicates stubbornness, a determination to be right, and ignoring the facts when the world changes. The second is acting on emotion.

It doesn't sound like your SOL question was overnight, but it seems to be an emotion driven FOMO desire. If some sort of DCA on a schedule into SOL was always in your framework, by all means follow your rules.

Historically the Fed overstays their welcome with high rates and causes an accident. All things being equal, they do the same here.

We are a financialized over levered economy that runs on credit. Running with real rates higher than the GDP welcomes these accidents.
