Michaels buyout has a 25 day period they can pursue better offers. Not sure whether to dump today at $22 and move on, or hold.

I myself am not sure whats going on there.
I guess when people hear ICAR, they worry about innovation and its reinvestment rate.

I've stepped up my increase into cyclicals and UK stocks in particular for value. Should have done it weeks ago but I'm learning as I go.

My equities and ETFs share a lot of the same companies (aapl, tsla, msft, etc) and it kills me on days like these. I need to rebalance, but I'm also not wanting to take losses right now. I've been burned way too much in the past selling things at the first sign of a dip. Notables include:
Chewy
Roku
Tesla
Nvidia
I would have had huge gains if I didn't freak out and sell those investments.

Do. Not. Hold. Meme. Stocks.
Day trade them, scalp them, but do not hold.
Take it from me, holding them never ends well.

What was the ticker before they merged?
A search on that would yield results I'd imagine.

Cant answer that part, but I had KHC at $33 I think hoping it would rebound as it used to be $90. It was dead money, covid hit (didn't drop a lot), rebounded to I think $34 and I bailed making $1/share and a year or so of 5% divvys.
Didn't know it crept up to $37.
I think this company still has lots of debt, and watch out for any potential divvy cut.

Biden backs Trump on bifacial solar tariffs
- Solar names (NYSEARCA:TAN) fell broadly in today's trade after the Biden administration backed former President Trump's stance on solar tariffs in a Monday filing with the U.S. International Court of Trade, marking a potential setback to clean power developers.
- Today's biggest losers included ENPH -7.9%, SPWR -7.9%, SUNW -7.1%, MAXN -5.6%, SEDG -5.3%, JKS -4.6%, CSIQ -3.3%, FSLR -2%.
- The new administration asked the court to dismiss a complaint from some solar industry members arguing that Trump's October proclamation that placed tariffs on two-sided solar panels was unlawful.
- The Trump administration "acted lawfully and fully within his authority" when he killed a tariff exemption for bifacial solar "by closing a loophole that the President determined had been undermining the effectiveness of the safeguard measure on solar products."
- First Solar is "a high-quality market leader and a good way to capture exposure to favorable trends in clean energy," BOOX Research writes in a

Yes, they do have a lot of debt. I have a feeling that their brands will have growth in the changing society with work from home. Their products are well known.

I definitely need to do a better of diversifying. I'll be adding more Financial, Real Estate, and other sectors into my portfolio.
However, I am currently down about 5-8% total on the ARK ETFs. I am going to wait until those go back up before splitting into different sectors. I refuse to sell until I am green overall...even if it'll take 3-6+ months to go back up. I'm okay with being patient and I no in the long run ARK will eventually go up.
This has definitely been a lesson for me.

When I check Livent I think of the scam theatre company from the 90s. lol

Yah its got problems but I stated this is one of those companies that has a catalyst on its side. I'm not over exposed on it, so if it doesn't do well I'll cut my losses.
It's inclusion barely shifted my targeted Sharpe Ratio.

I don't see any reason why they shouldn't do well over the long term. Their fundamentals are solid. It's just that for some reason all the attention is going in the direction of PLL.
No matter, I'm just loading up and averaging down on the dips for now.

I don't think of the US Livent company is a scam.
Just the naming brings back memories of articles about Garth Drabinsky. LOL
Anyone who wants a laugh, read up on Livent (Canada theatre company) and this tard who got put in prison.

I fucked up...kinda. I still profited, but could've been up $11k yesterday.
Went into my Fidelity account where I keep most of my savings and bought 1000 shares of RKT at $29. I had a chance to sell at $40, but got greedy and instead sold at $31
I still made $2,000, but could've been up significantly more.
I still have 100 shares (bought at $22) in my Robin Hood acct. Will be keeping that long term. Company seems legit and their earnings were very impressive. I think long term it's going to be a keeper.

Don't feel too bad about it. During the reddit craze I posted pages back I had 5000 shares of Trivago. I sold it at around $2.40-ish making my usual 10-15% hit and run (third time).
I sold at around 11 or 11:30 am. Half any hour later, the reddit brigade came in out of nowhere and made the stock go to $5.80 in an hour or two.
I missed out on $3/share by half an hour. $15k US = $20k CDN

Bro you might be setting yourself for a world of hurt.. Unless you have another portfolio filled with total domestic, international, and bond index funds.

Nice. I always had my eye on Ford and GE when they were down in the dumps. I was tempted at GE at $10.

So on Monday we were saying the market should be ok for at least a couple of months...
What are we saying now? Looks pretty bearish to me.
Bought some F yesterday. If nothing else I can look at the F on my portfolio and pay respects.

Only up 1%. Most of my shit is down. Disappointing. Only reason I'm up is due to MIK.

I don't unfortunately. To be honest, most of my money has been sitting in savings for the past 4-5 years and getting shit interest. I decided I'd start investing for long term gains and use about 20-30% for day trading.
What is it that's mainly making you think it'll end up being a world of hurt? I am still new to this so I'm open to suggestions, but I definitely don't want to sell on my current losses right now for the sake of diversifying. I want to wait until those positions go back to being green, even if it takes a while.

Your portfolio is not recession-proof (diversified). Put those savings in a 3 fund portfolio IMO

I've never had Apple. But it's come down $20. I'm actually tempted hoping to get in for a rebound and get out.
