Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By apexcrusade: What do you consider longer? Most of what I am watching is above my price point, but I invest to hold indefinitely and to create long term income so I can get out of the workforce, so look for dividend/interest paying equities, fixed income, etc. at good prices. Lately I have been sucked into this thread, though and now am a flaming day trader! I wrote a long post I was going to put on here about it lastnight but decided not to burden everyone with it. Some of my best ideas are finding companies that are beaten down and have a good chance to recover over the next 3-6-12 months or so, since the financial crisis there are a multitude of these companies - I call them special situations - some have stopped their dividend, price crashes, buy near the low, they restart dividend and you make a 400% capital gain on it. I have a bunch of these I keep an eye on. PEI and XAN-C are two examples. Thinking of getting into PEI again. I bought that at 25 cents and sold out at 1,13. Might do that again at a higher level now. If you don't mind holding, this is trading at 5% of its pre crisis price. PEI is in retail real estate. That isn't coming back. It was dead before the crisis. |

I'm thinking anything EV or AI related might be a good bet right now. It's tough to findreally good candidates since the market is so high. If you create watchlists, while you are waiting for a good entry price you can monitor the ones on it and keep adding to it, of companies that you've vetted and would like to own, but the price is too high now. One day a chance will come to get into one of those. There are a dozen or so I am waiting on to either get in to or to add to what I already have when/if the price goes down. If you are into TESLA, tech, AI and so forth, the stuff I would recommend would probably bore you. I have some regional banks, baby bonds, REITs, etc for long term holds for income. So that works for me. I get about 9% return on one portfolio, so am building that up to pay out income - my next target is 10K/Year. This is a slow process since I want companies that are stable and will be around longer than I will. These are T, MO, PRU, ABBV, TSE, NEWT, ARCC,. I love baby bonds, these have a fixed price you will get paid at the maturity date, so if you get in at a good price there is a cap gain at the end. A good example I had was MFO. (baby bond of MFA) Got in at around $18, collected 9% or a while and the company just called them all paying me $25 per share. I wanted to hold for much longer but they called them early. I have RCA, RCB, RILYZ, etc all in under $20, they will all be called at the end at $25, so a built in profit and in the meantime paying 9% or so. . I made 3 portfolios with TDAmeritrade, each with sort of a different character, one is a ROTH, so have probably 80 stocks total in all 3. All them either pay me regular income, or as I mentioned above are the day trading ones I;ve gotten sucked into from this thread. Sorry so long on this. The whole concept of making money in the market is fascinating to me. You have to have a plan, though, before you buy something, which includes an exit plan and stick to it. Failures occur when something emotional happens in the interim causing you to not follow your plan. |

You definitely need to engage with some online resources, your broker should be able to help. But consider something - if you could only buy even a couple of shares of a dividend paying stock, have the dividends automatically reinvested and then just forget about it and move to the next one. Your shares in that stock will compound and grow all by themselves and the additional shares will pay income to buy more and more, etc. You have to start somewhere. I wish I could recommend something, pretty much everything I have or want is above my buy price. But I would buy more MO, or KNOP, or OXLC at the moment for some examples. I am pondering that. |

UNIT is starting to look good again. I am in at a higher price and they are coming out of a 2 years long legal nightmare, but I see the price going back up and the dividend increasing over the next 6 months or so. I had this as a long term hold and the legal situation killed it. fortunately I held through all of that and now it is showing some strength.

Zomedica is one popular stock in Robinhood as company fortifies liquidity Jan. 21, 2021 9:29 AM ETZomedica Corp. (ZOM) Despite a ~393.5% rise in the past 30-day period Zomedica (NYSEMKT:ZOM) reigns supreme in the Robinhood trading platform by clinging to its position as one of the 100 most popular stocks. The development stage company focused on veterinary health recently announced that it raised $40M after investors exercised outstanding warrants. It also regained compliance with NASDAQ listing standards, informed Zomedica CEO Robert Cohen in a letter to shareholders. The company continues to lose money at the operating level, but with the recent exercise of warrants by shareholders, cash and equivalents have jumped to over $90M compared to ~$1.5M at the end of 2019. |

I just bought a million shares of PDOS just to say I have a million shares of something lol.
 . Should be a fun ride but with some spare cash in my etrade account and Marvel and DC cooling off a bit could get lucky with their comic library. Picked up 100k shares of TSOI as well. I think i'm about tapped out on penny stocks and penny crypto though. The nice thing about the lockdown is all the money I would have pissed away at bars, travel, eating out, and strippers i've just thrown long into some higher risk/reward stocks and crypto. So even if they do nothing or lose i'm still coming out ahead lol. I promise I'll try to be a good little speculator from here on out.

On a ZOM note, anyone see the daily chart over the last 3 hours?
It looks like a pulse train on an oscilloscope. Literally up and down one cent hundreds of times in a short time frame, making a very inorganic chart.  Barcode Pattern Candlesticks I have heard this referred to as "barcoding" and it is evidence of algorithmic manipulation apparently. I don't know much about it, but it has a bad feel. I'm long on ZOM, going to hold out for a while. |
