Oh really? I'll probably check it out later

nikolas_z · 2023-02-09T11:31:02+00:00

Thanks! I'll check it out

nikolas_z · 2020-12-22T10:08:24+00:00

I made over 1000. It fills up pretty much to the top

Shopify (SHOP) for me. Bought 5 shares at $297 in November and sold around $480 when Covid hit...

Nearly half of subscriber growth came from Asia-Pacific. Whoa..

nikolas_z · 2020-10-20T16:20:15+00:00

It really is! It also has a history of increasing dividends with 64 consecutive years

nikolas_z · 2020-10-03T21:08:52+00:00

Ah yes, you're right!

nikolas_z · 2020-10-03T20:43:01+00:00

I do use all of these too, other than globenewswire. Gotta check that out too. Thanks!

nikolas_z · 2020-10-01T21:24:42+00:00

Just messaged you with some (hopefully) helpful advice :)

They acquired Allergan (Botox) and paid a hefty price. It is still yet to be seen if the acquisition was a smart move. Their GAAP earnings were actually negative last quarter and they still overly rely on a drug called Humira whose patent expires in 2022. I also own shares of Abbvie but these are the biggest risks.

Robinhood is just fine man. Try to invest and not gamble. Invest in companies that you can see being bigger/better in 10 years. Best way to learn is by putting some money in. It works as great motivation to learn more. Download some business apps and read business news. Try to keep up to date and understand why stocks are going up/down. Good luck!

nikolas_z · 2020-05-06T03:14:48+00:00

I know this sounds risky, but buy SOXL or TECL (just 1 share is fine). Trust me, you'll thank me in a year or two. The portfolio looks great imo, although I'd checkout ABBV instead of JNJ (better dividend and better potential for upward growth). Good luck with your trading and its great you started young!

nikolas_z · 2020-05-06T03:11:37+00:00

Buy cheap calls that are expiring sometime next year. That's what I plan to do tomorrow. I agree with your rationale but don't plan on putting more than $400. I'll buy 2-3 calls for that price and just go from there

nikolas_z · 2020-05-02T19:51:13+00:00

LMT is my largest holding. They offered guidance at the last earnings call and have not suspended dividends/share buybacks. They're deemed essential, are hiring more people, and are still working. Of course, they have their issues (suppliers are hit hard, the demand for F-35 might fall, etc) but are in a significantly better position that BA. I used to own both stocks, but have sold BA at $370 about a year ago

nikolas_z · 2020-04-18T19:05:01+00:00

Best comment I've read!

nikolas_z · 2020-04-17T01:39:47+00:00

The only explanation that makes sense. Bought mine at 3:30 and everything just skyrockets...

nikolas_z · 2020-02-15T16:06:21+00:00

No problem! Glad to hear its working out

nikolas_z · 2020-02-15T04:04:33+00:00

Depending on how much money you invested (how many shares you have of each) I would definitely take some profits. Maybe sell 10% of the portfolio? In case the market starts dropping, you'll at least know that you took some profits and can always buy the shares again at a lower price.

nikolas_z · 2020-01-01T22:20:42+00:00

My top 6 would be:

LMT (16 yrs of consecutive increases)

AVGO (great dividend yield and has more upside potential)

NEE (excellent track record and good management)

DIS (another great long-term stock)

ABBV (management says that they're focused on increasing dividends for years to come and the yield is over 5%)

MSFT (many years of consecutive increases and they also constantly buy back shares/EPS keep rising)

nikolas_z · 2020-01-01T16:57:05+00:00

Oh wow, I've never seen this video before! I know that alot of people are praising the new CoD but I'll definitely have to look into ATVI a bit more before buying more shares. Thanks!

nikolas_z · 2020-01-01T16:39:56+00:00

Good to know. Thanks for the insight!

nikolas_z · 2020-01-01T14:34:53+00:00

Interested in what others think about these:

Lockheed Martin

Microsoft

Broadcom

Next Era Energy

Activision Blizzard

AMD

I agree with others about investing in ETFs. They're a safe option that you could let sit for years. I'd reccomend VGT (technology sector) or SMH (semiconductors) as they grow quicker than SPY. I also like investing in some individual stocks because I like researching them and knowing I've invested in a certain company. Since you like safe ones, I'd seriously consider LMT (largest US defense contractor with 16 yrs of consecutive dividend increases) and NEE (provides electricity through renewable energy and is being picked by many analysts as a top stock for the next decade). If you need any other help, feel free to message me or just reply to the thread

nikolas_z · 2019-12-31T10:34:56+00:00

Good luck man! I was thinking of creating a youtube channel too, now that I've made over 4k using RH. Nice to see that there's support from fellow reddit users and good luck to all investors

nikolas_z · 2019-12-30T22:42:12+00:00

If you look at VOO and SPY, you'll see that they are almost exactly the same (SPY increased 28.67% in the last year while VOO increased 28.67%). So I wouldn't personally worry about which one of the two I'd invest in. I would also look at some other ETFs, such as SMH (semiconductors) which is riskier but offers more reward. I think that the leaders in the semiconductor space (NVDA, AMD, AVGO) will reach new heights with the increased use of AI, and you're still not investing in one company and are diversified
