Icahn took him to the woodshed on Herbalife. That was super entertaining for finance. Ackman tried the dump and short but got caught.
OT: Stock and Investment Thread
- Thread starter RU05
- Start date
I think IPOE which is now SOFI has the potential to be a long term winner. There is likely to be a pullback in the upcoming weeks once the PIPE investors lock-up period ends and can sell.
For those who followed me into PLTR at $15-16; IPOE/SOFI at $14-15 and PBR at $10-11... congratulations. Keep those good stock tips coming.
Next step is to figure out an entry point for SNOW. It would be nice to get in somewhere around $200, but that will be tough. We missed our chance when it dipped in the $180's

I'm in on some post spac's like STEM and DNMR. Doing very well there(though STEM was down big today).
Missed out on NKLA which I should have bought around $11.
A couple SPAC's I'm watching( but don't own) like SNPR, THBR and AGC haven't done much, either way, of late.
I did catch myself a big ole memefish in WISH.
Thought I was just buying a recent IPO caught in the downdraft, but it launched today, I sold in afterhours at around a 95% gain for the day(only 85ish% overall).
I'm not even sure it was a WSB stock, but figure it had to be. I might try to buy back in in the morning extended if it gets down below $13. Could totally see this get to $20 tomorrow, but I wanted to take my winnings while I could. Given BB stalled at around $20 thought the risk reward suggest to sell here. But who knows.

PLTR at $15? Are you talking back in Nov?
PBR looks like it could be dangerous....In a good way. Breakout levels here at $12, and then pretty smooth sailing to $16.
In on SNPR. Got back in on CCIV and THCB recently. Still holding long gambling tech that have de-SPAC’s GENI and RSI.
Another TSLA competitor going down. More to come. Prototypes are easy, profitable production is hell.
Geni down on stock offering today.
RSI does look to be in the early stages of an upswing.
And for traditional ICE makers. The EV Mustang loses money just like many others.
TSLA doesn’t make money on cars either. Ford Lighting put it out of business. Cybertruck will be a next.
I think the Cybertruck will have a niche.
Ride's market was/is to be work trucks. And that is the f-150 stomping ground.
My bet is there will be a fair amount of interest and buzz with the Cybertruck’s initial release (assuming it actually hits the road) and then sales will fall off a cliff and it will disappear or undergo a massive facelift. 20 years from now it will be hobbyist dream.
The narrative by the TSLA crazies that F, GM and the rest of the legacies won't be able to build at scale is not based in reality.
F literally has a centuries worth of experience building at scale.
It's based on history. All EV models via ICE companies have been busts so far. Even the F CEO admitted that the base model of the F150 Lighting will lose money.
Maybe they'll make a movie about it staring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd.
The previous failures was not due to their inability to scale.
And Ford had said the entirety of the F-150 line will be profitable, you can dice up the #'s to fit your narrative but end of the day Ford will be profitable with the F-150.
And that is even with including R&D in the accounting, which is apparently not the industry standard.
It won't be profitable (as per the CEO). They are going to take a bath on the base model.
I can't exceed the buying power in my margin account. So technically they're naked, but backed by my SMA.
Current p/s is 20x but that is jacked up by rev's that were crushed in 2020. End of year p/s would be around 10x of current market cap. OK growth predicted for 2022, but then it takes off after that.
Looks like a resistance level at $5 which goes back a couple years and bounced off that level in early Feb.
Eerily similar story to SRAX, which I'm in on and have done very well with in a month. SRAX recently broke through a $6ish resistance which it also bounced off of in Feb. Currently at $7. So it's a bit ahead of IDEX on the timeline.
Time to move back into growth stocks. Cathie Woods was correct, at least on that one.
Ya that trade is back on.
You noted PLTR, it's up 30% in a month. Others have mentioned some other growth stocks which have been hot in the last month as well.
I assume this all relates to commodity prices which have cut pretty significantly during this time.
Hah, halftime report opens with Cathie Wood saying the growth trade is back on.
Does the base model generally make up a large percentage of the units sold of most vehicles?
I posted a link a couple pages back in which Ford stated the EV F-150 would be profitable.
Depends, but likely yes in this case. The truck will range from $40k to $80k. Most purchases will be closer to the lower #.
And I pulled out the quote where the CEO said the base model won't be. I think we are talking about the same article. LOL!
+1
Not sure of exactly when, but growth will boom again very soon. People can only be emotional and stupid for so long. Can't ignore these earnings and revenue growth #'s forever.
