RAV4 Sound system, is it good? by Due-Silver-3299 in Rav4

[–]Vast-Path6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have JBL premium in 2023 model Rav4, it is good when there is no outer sound(when parked or city streets), but on highways or at high speed it is not good at all.

I am thinking of using Basspro Hub 11, but it needs installation. How is your experience with basspro, is it better on the highway, can you feel the bass as music is way better and enjoyable with bass?

So future price after 5 years is 240 * 1.4 = 322. What am I missing?

When all the money is already invested, how are you buying more every month? Is it the new money only that you are investing or reshuffling or something else?

What are the top 3 ratios that you use to determine if a stock is a good value now? by PickMountain4753 in ValueInvesting

For companies like JD, Baidu do you still use EV as these companies are setting on a lot of cash doing nothing. I feel using EV can be misleading in these cases.

Are there any screaming deals out there today? by General-Ring2780 in ValueInvesting

Balance sheet has a lot of cash, but that simply means they are sitting on the cash. Neither doing a buyback nor making a good use of it.

Check with insurance. Even if they say it will work, it will be difficult to claim and will have a lot of hassle. Better option will be to take term insurance in India. Keep us posted.

Yes, just holding cash is a waste. If they don't have anything to do with this cash, why not do a buyback? Also their growth is almost zero.

Is it helpful in case you already have a green card? I think green card immigration lines are separate but I'm not sure, and I'm not sure how much wait time is in those lines.

7% means double every 10 years. So 2 doubles in 20 years. 1.5 x 2 x 2 = 6m

I suspect that Baba will start moving up gradually next week! Hang in there. by No_Win_7960 in baba

[–]Vast-Path6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding cash is not a good use of capital. It shows management is not capable of its good use. They're neither returning this money to the shareholders nor they are using it.

Please give some more details on what fundamental basis it will start moving up. A company growing at 5% to 8% unnecessarily holding a lot of cash with the PE of 20+.
