New rule allowing direct IPOs from companies

How a New SEC Ruling on Direct IPOs Affects Underwriters, Small Investors, SPAC Mergers

The U.S. SEC has approved new rules to make it possible for privately held companies to issue new stock in a direct listing IPO. This has big implications for investment banks and, perhaps, SPACs.

I had seen that. Been trying to digest the real impact once it all gets thought through.

Another analysis of LAZR. No real revenue growth till around 2023. Can probably expect similar for other Lidar companies like VLDR

so ARKG came up on my radar, they're an ETF that specializes in genome technology, research, etc. They're up about 200% YTD and genome technology is being hyped as the next FANG. I'll be throwing some money in today or selling some puts depending on the premiums.

0.75%

Yeah that's one of my issues with these speciality ETFs. I don't like the jacked up costs.

Fogel · Dec 28, 2020

Yeah it's a bit higher than some of the more established ETFS like SPY, but if they keep the same growth it's still worth the extra expense. Can always bail when the growth tapers off.

BTWN, BFT, and GHIV all up almost 10% premarket. I think these all have too much hype too close to their mergers to think there'll be a dip before mergers in late january. Still holding all 3.

Sanrith Descartes · Dec 28, 2020

AAPL +1.5% pre-market. Thoughts and prayers

Bought APXT and GHIV last week, just sold for a little over $1000 in taking. Not bad for a week!

Now to see what SPAC to buy next.

Edit:

Just bought 200 shares of FUSE, 300 of CRHC, and 200 of AACQ. Was already holding 200 GIK.

DIS racked up a new 52 high. I have now made more return on DIS this year than MSFT. Looks like a definite rotation or profit taking on the SaaS / Stay at home plays and into the more traditional stuff. Also most SPACS are getting some air let out of the tires. Most likely some profit taking going on.

Sanrith Descartes · Dec 28, 2020

Option chain is now available for GIK. Something to keep an eye on.

Gik looks like it's on a dip, I like it enough I'll buy in tomorrow. Most EV players are jumping but most of them are still in prototype phase where as gik is buying someone already producing.

If the 1st one on the list (FID 500 Index) has the symbol FXAIX then that is your long term simple answer. S&P 500 index mutual with no load and 0.02 net fee.

Sanrith should be correct, just double check the symbol matches the one he listed.

Yeah it is fxaix.

Should I look at the fidcontrafund? Which is next one down. Seems to have better yearly return and lifetime. Lot of fang and tech heavy it seems.
