Stock Market/Investing/Day Trading/Speculative Trading Thread

Checking on my holdings today...

Im Out GIF
 
Fucking fed mins haha

I made some moves just before New Year that I really wish I'd made today instead... 😣

Edit: Well, one of the moves I made was to sell about half my shares in a fund that's down about 10% today, so that was alright. Just wish I'd held off on the corresponding buys I made after selling that.
 
@gents -- thoughts on RIVN? Dropped the past couple days(even down to 75.12 earlier) even more after some recent Amazon-Stellantis news, but I jumped on board today buying a good chunk and curious what you fellas think.

Haven't heard of them before. Do they actually make cars or parts for ev's?

Mostly Trucks and an SUV. I had seen snippets of their prototype on gadget blogs, but their 1st legit exposure came on "The Long Way Up" show on Apple TV+. They literally installed rapid chargers so Ewan McGregor and his buddy Charlie could ride electric Harley's from the tip of South America to Los Angeles. Of course, the support vehicles were Rivian trucks (Serial #00000001 and #00000002). Pretty interesting show, IMO.

Supposed to have 100,000 delivery vehicles deployed with Amazon by 2030. Likely to have the first 10,000 or so on the road as early as 2022.

Buddy of mine is high on them so I joined in.

A tale told by many near-belly up corps over the past couple years tho.

This is another stock that drives people that care about fundamentals nuts...

Roughly same valuation as Ford and they might have a 10k sales next year.

Have a really hard time getting behind a company that ipo’ed larger than both Ford and GM and had only produced a couple hundred cars, personally. Obviously it’s come crashing back to earth, but still.
 
Fair points all around, gents. Haven’t contributed to this thread but watch frequently. Given they’re in bed with Amazon I figured I’d give it a whirl.

If you like it as a long term play, I would probably look at dollar cost averaging into it over time till you get your full position into it.

I imagine with rate increases coming it will be a very volatile stock.

Yeah, just talked about easing in with my guy today. Definitely a long play.
 
Motor Trend just named the Rivian R1T their Truck of the Year. They acknowledged that it's expensive but really liked it, saying "It's not the Business Plan of the Year Award." Of course, the latter would be much more useful in knowing whether to invest in them...
