OFFICIAL STOCK MARKET AND ECONOMY THREAD VOL. A NEW CHAPTER

[Chopper]

So you’d rather buy gold instead of the picks and shovels?

Yeah I'd lean towards gold in that example. Similar I'd lean towards Google vs. a trading platform like Etrade or RH...

I got caught in that failed bounce, but if I’m going down, then the whole market can come with me .

Netflix was always over valued. Definitely needed a correction.

It having good content back then and a no brainer 7-9/month was very appealing.
Them losing a ton of shows like Office and those HBO/ showtime shows probably hurt as well.
Also when they drop new shows everyone can just just watch it real quick and unsub.

They pump out a mix of shows, both good and bad. I would say more good than bad. Plus their contents spans globally. Shows in parts of Europe are exclusive to the region and the same for the U.S. People have short term memories, but they put out a number of bangers yearly. Just last year they had Squid game running the place. They constantly put out good content. IMO Netflix should do a bit more marketing with popups in cities like a movie night of sorts. Do more partnerships with other industries such airlines, tesla and metros etc. I think it's a step in the right direction to crack down on people who are leachers. They also need to do a better job on marketing their shows. I was in London and across the hotel I was staying at they had a huge spray painted mural of stranger things. People were constantly walking by and stopping and staring at it and asking questions about it.

Yeah part of my thesis on them is their accessibility moat. Nobody sees Netflix when it comes to worldwide reach and scope. Shrinking subscribers won't last - like I said, I think the sector cannibalization will occur sooner than later, especially if they offer ad-supported plans.

As for content, yeah, they constantly hit on series. Squid Games, Narcos, Ozark, Arcane, Bridgerton. Tons more. They pump out hits, even if it costs them in terms of quality (eg. killing the OA early).

Now of people think their P/E ratio was overvalued, or that they don't have any inherent advantages over rivals, that's fine too.

So this causes fb to rip 18%?

Why?

Apparently a 1% DAU beat is worth an 18% market cap bump?

 

[coolcool]

It’s all about the flow. Nothing makes sense fundamentally

 

[noskey]

AAPL survived and it looks like the markets will too. For at least tonight.

 

[ballinsam23]

Wow AMZN. Not a good look

 

[deusavertat]

I'm scared to check the netxinvestor website.

 

[noskey]

Wow AMZN. Not a good look

Dragging down Apple now

 

[southernhospita]

Man FB is still down 30% since January
That’s ******* insane
I’m starting the realize the long term plays on in index funds and REITS
90% of this **** ain’t safe unless it from a company that you really need and makes your life easier

Example WM because regardless of how the economy looks you will always need someone to take out the trash
KMB because will all like showers (or at least you should ) and keeping a clean house


But that **** doesn’t sound sexy in convos

Damn near all the hyped up **** is literally in the trash a business wise are replaceable and go without even being used


Like PTON and BYND was once over $100 a share now they are the same price as a pack of NIKE socks from Kohl’s

 

[ballinsam23]

The economic professors were right. Just invest in the SP500, because when **** hits the fan, you'll lose way less than buying/holding individual stocks.

Imagine DCA'ing down from PINS or CURI or ROKU. You'd never come back. Gotta get yours and get out for 95% of these companies.

So much bleeding

That’s where I’m at with it if it’s not introducing something ground breaking for the future of the way we live or something you can’t see yourself never not buying from them or using it **** it

Like dudes thought BYND was going to lead them to the promise land when it was $300 a share you could take that **** off the shelf and most of that customer base would find a alternative without any protest

Who was it that said concentration makes you wealthy, and diversification keeps you wealthy? Was it antidope ? Thats my train of thought. Invest in good future-focused companies and you'll be alright. Trade short-term volatility and easily-replicable/non-innovative companies. FB is easy to clone, but they're not replicable. PTON, god bless their souls, werent innovative or building a reason for long money to stay invested.

Tl;dr: don't buy trash.

 

[ballinsam23]

Good future companies so broad though. Every suggestion here was a good future company mentioned at the time

Until you dig into the financials and get emotions out the way, you’re not finding the leader of future companies.

Elon Musk is probably the smartest guy at offloading restricted stock ever. Always has some crazy story attached to it. Then when he has no shares he's gonna come out and say "oh BTW the cars don't work"

Oh you want me to pay taxes? Gotta sell shares. I want to buy Twitter. Gotta sell more shares though. The market won't care that I'm doing it cause I have some crazy story that's bigger than the story that I'm selling shares attached to it.

Digging into financials and getting emotions out of the way is key to investing tho. Growth stage companies are different but thats where qualitative analysis comes into play.
