Its one of the odd positions. Every single fundamental says its a $400 plus stock but it just gets no love. At this point I hold it because I like the company and console myself with the 3% dividend. I am in the same boat with NOC. Im green in them both but they just cant break out. Maybe Biden will start a war someplace.

VZ is another stock that just can't break new ground, but the still provide ballast and are easy to endlessly flip calls.

Im starting to like HD at about $260 but not sure it will reach there. I might have to bite the bullet and reach up a few dollars on it.

I threw some dice on CCIV. Its a $2+ billion SPAC. Current trading at $10 so its ultra low risk. They lowballed ATT to buy dying Directv. Current Directv has EBITDA of 4.5 billion and its expected to shrink to 3 Billion by 2023. Thats bad. But... CCIV is rumored to have lowballed ATT with a 3.5 billion offer (cash and debt assumption) for a 49% stake. That is like 1.5x current EBITDA. T has no real alternatives but to take the deal and write off the shitty purchase it made. It needs to dump debt. 99% chance I don't keep this SPAC past the merge, but for $10 a share, i am betting I can get 20-30% off the merger announcement pop.

The enticing part is even though Directv is dying, getting it for 1 to 1.5x EBITDA is a solid buy for the next few years. they just need to stabilize it. And T owning 51% gives them an incentive to support it and provide HBO Max at a healthy discount from T to Directv.

Read an article that Apple is teaming up with Hyundai for their car. That could be good news for GOEV who's also working with Hyundai. GOEV has been down ever since the merger

He needs to dilute the shares as much as the market will tolerate. Flow the money from investors to the company instead of just into shareholders. Tesla should never need capital again, he has 10 more giga factories he wants to build then let investors hand you the operating cash you need for the next 7yrs.

Anyone have any thoughts on HD? Revenue growth is generally flatlining but except for LOW I dont see it having any real competition in the space. 18b in EBITDA, LTD to EBITDA under 2 and free cash flows in the 11b range.

I only don't own it because I own LOW and don't want to be too heavy into the same area. However if it dropped sufficiently I would probably pick it up despite that. In a diversified portfolio I think one of them should be held unless you already have homebuilders in your portfolio.

One of my goals for 2021 is to fill in some gaps in my portfolio sector-wise. Its sitting at this huge clusterfuck convergence of technicals. In an ideal world I get it down near $256 at the 200 DMA but I don't now with increased stimulus likely that it falls down there and I end up missing out on an entry point.
