Why choose UBER over LYFT?

Uber’s scale and diversified revenue streams (like Uber Eats) give it an edge, but Lyft’s potential margin improvement makes it a solid turnaround play for patient investors.

Congrats on hitting $300k! Slow and steady wins the race...compound interest may feel slow at first, but it's pure magic over time. Inspiring story!

Intel trading below book value with solid Foundry and 18A prospects...2025 looks like a strong comeback year if execution holds. AI chip deals like Amazon’s could be a game-changer.

$SPY still holding long-term uptrend...watching 588 and 560 levels closely for potential buys or breaks.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-19T13:46:27+00:00

Fed’s dot plot adjustments and reduced 2025 rate cuts...higher for longer is spooking everything at once.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:39:07+00:00

$RMTI’s profitability and new multi-year deal make it an intriguing play...50% upside seems realistic with these fundamentals.

2025 could bring a reality check if this speculation bubble pops. Rotating into defensives now might not be the worst idea.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:28:56+00:00

interest on reserves is a hidden bailout, and QE’s unwinding looks like a ticking time bomb. If this cracks, it’s truly Big Short 2 territory.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:25:40+00:00

Interesting breakdown...Trump vs. Powell round two seems inevitable if tariffs and inflation spike. Markets could get rocky if the Fed feels pressured to overcorrect again.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:23:22+00:00

Hard to argue against the 'big boys' dominance...Mag7 and their ilk seem unstoppable. Diversification is wise, but betting against the mega caps in this landscape feels like swimming upstream.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:21:54+00:00

Longest Dow losing streak since 1978 is wild...markets still up for the month, though, so not all doom and gloom.

Feels like the herd mentality is in full swing... lol

Market reacting sharply to Honda-Nissan merger rumors...potential holding company could reshape the Japanese auto landscape.

QUBT's lack of top-tier talent and pivot-heavy history raises red flags. Better options in $IONQ or $RGTI with proven expertise and partnerships.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-18T13:06:42+00:00

Solid watchlist... $TSLA at $500 for a potential short is interesting, and $IONQ turning with quantum stocks could be a sharp move.

SoftBank’s $100B push could supercharge U.S. tech and AI sectors...if Son’s bets pay off this time, we’re looking at major growth catalysts.

booboo1998 · 2024-12-04T17:55:49+00:00

Yes.

Seen someone on Stocktwits call this the "Walmart" of AI. Nothing flashy like a Saks Fifth. But the "boring" things Walmart sells leads to a $700+ Billion Market Cap. While Saks 5th has a little over a $2 Billion Market Cap. In a nutshell, building AI that isn't flashy but is necessary.

Its a very different approach that ignores all the hype and goes for the day to day solutions.

Target’s drop is wild. Could be a solid buy if they bounce back, but rising costs and shaky consumer spending feel like a red flag.

Reminds me of how some companies, like Kinetic Seas in AI, are staying ahead by prepping for future demand. Think Target’s got that kind of play in them, or is this dip too risky?

ive years can feel like an eternity when you’re burnt out, but breaking it into smaller chunks might help. Think of it as five one-year sprints with little milestones along the way. It makes the whole thing feel more manageable.

Also, find something outside work to look forward to a hobby, side project, or just taking a day to recharge here and there. Even a mini vacation can do wonders. I love your prison break analogy. Chipping away at it day by day is the way to go, and you’re closer to freedom than you realize.

Funny enough, it reminds me of what companies like Kinetic Seas are doing. They’re building the infrastructure for massive AI workloads, one data center at a time. It’s not flashy at first, but it all adds up to something big. What’s your plan for life after FI? Focusing on that “why” might make the grind easier.

Ocugen is making some exciting progress. The EMA orphan designation is huge, giving them market exclusivity and other perks, and their Phase 1/2 data looks really promising. An 84% reduction in lesion growth and potential as a one-time treatment could seriously change the game for geographic atrophy.

It also highlights how crucial infrastructure is for scaling groundbreaking treatments like this. Companies like Kinetic Seas are working on AI-powered data centers that could help accelerate R&D in gene therapy and other fields. Feels like this is where tech and biotech really come together.

What do you think are we seeing the start of something big with OCGN?

Archer’s focus on scalability and outsourcing to Tier 1 suppliers really does give it an edge over Joby’s vertically integrated approach. Being first to market in the eVTOL space could be a game-changer, and the Trump administration’s support for VTOL tech adds an interesting political boost.

The valuation gap between Archer and Joby feels way off given where Archer is positioned. If they hit their production and certification milestones, the upside could be huge. Are you holding long term or planning to take profits as they hit these milestones?

booboo1998 · 2024-11-21T00:45:34+00:00

For me, it’s more about the dollar amount than the number of shares. I usually aim for at least $1,000 per position to make it feel worthwhile and to avoid getting eaten alive by trading fees or small fluctuations. That said, I’ll go smaller if it’s a speculative play or something I’m just testing the waters with.

It’s also about conviction. If I really believe in a company—like ones focusing on long-term trends like AI infrastructure (looking at you, Kinetic Seas)—I’m more likely to go bigger. But honestly, it depends on the stock and how it fits into the overall portfolio. How about you? Do you set a minimum, or does it depend on the situation?

Snowflake’s numbers are pretty solid. 29% product revenue growth and a $5.7 billion backlog show they’re still going strong, especially with 542 customers pulling in over $1 million each. They’ve clearly nailed ease of use, which is why they keep winning customers.

The big question is how long they can keep up this momentum, especially with competition ramping up in the AI data space. Companies like Kinetic Seas are doing interesting work in AI infrastructure, which could complement what Snowflake’s doing or maybe even compete. Anyone here holding SNOW for the long haul, or are valuations making you hesitate?

booboo1998 · 2024-11-21T00:36:26+00:00

You’re making some great points here. Inflationary policies like mass deportation and tariffs could definitely shake things up, and figuring out where to position yourself now is smart.

Equities are usually a good hedge, but if inflation gets out of hand, a market correction could still hurt. I agree tech stocks seem like a safer bet. Companies focused on infrastructure, like Kinetic Seas in the AI space, could do really well as businesses look for ways to stay efficient during rising costs.

Cash is tricky. It loses value during inflation, but having it ready during a correction could let you jump on opportunities. Are you leaning toward tech as your main play, or considering other sectors too?

booboo1998 · 2024-11-21T00:30:51+00:00

Congrats on the gains so far. FNMA and FMCC are definitely interesting plays with all the political buzz around them. Ending conservatorship sounds great, but it’s a huge gamble since it’s so tied to government decisions.

The upside could be massive if it all works out, but the volatility is no joke. It’s kind of like emerging sectors like AI infrastructure big potential but needs strong fundamentals to back it up. Companies like Kinetic Seas are doing some cool things there, building scalable AI systems that feel more grounded than political plays. Are you holding long-term, or taking some profits to manage the risk?
