    Not sure if you are joking or not, but Tom Lee is the most bullish of all perma-bulls. He is known for calling new bull runs every time he is on television, including January of 2022. The guy is nothing but market positive, no matter the macro situation. Nuclear WW3 could break out and the guy...

    SMCI going straight into extreme multi timeframe overbought territory. The reversion trade is getting juicier by the day. These are the EV trades that can make a traders month(s), but timing is critical.

    You're citing analyst upgrades as some kind of tea leaves for an earnings beat? Analysts are absolutely worthless. You're far smarter than that.

    It's not the quarter's miss, its the rapidly shrinking margins. Higher wages and them lowering pricing on vehicles is going to take a toll.

    The only thing I can say in the UK (notably not EU anymore), every single piece of fresh fruit and vegetables have the city and country of origin on the packaging. Sometimes as much info as the specific farm. I am all for this transparency as it helps make better informed decisions. Saw a...

    Shouldn't be any surprise in the margins. They have been pressured by raising wages while simultaneously lowering prices of their vehicles to capture market share. Would have been some accounting magic if they had beat margins.

    My old company matched 100% of the first 6% of your contributions. So, if you elected for 6% 401k contribution, they would match that 100%. You basically are immediately doubling your contribution before mr market even does its magic.

    @Foler This is important. I found this out the hard way one year many moons ago. Capped my 401k contributions in Aug/Sep and missed quite a bit of the year's match vs had I just split my cap out more evenly through the whole year.

    I've got a feeling Powell is going to come out and poo poo all over the market at 2pm (2:30 press conference).

    The thing you REALLY need to consider is that compounding works both ways. That 1% AUM fee each year also compounds against you (some are as high as 2-3%). Fees are the bane of long term investing accounts. Real talk, 98%+ in this thread should just be DCA into the S&P500 and forgetting the...

    We don’t live in that mess. We are 15min from the beach on the south coast.

There is also a massive...

    This. Instead of open ownership, it’d just get obfuscated by shell companies overseas. There’s basically a free for all in the US for foreign ownership, so it’s easy to hide.
