nna777: I posted about the above stock a week ago. It closed higher today. refer to my initial post for better understanding. gained $2.70 today. |
Re: Us Stocks Pick Alert by OakPearl(m): 5:21am On Feb 22, 2020 |
nna777: Very pleased with your gains bro. Did a quick check just now and found some interesting details. GILD is a large-cap biotech company that has been out of favor for a few years, with price weakness tied to past drug pricing failures and seeing its once-dominant hepatitis C market share decline. However, the upside of Wall Street’s bearishness is that Gilead shares are now dirt cheap relative to its S&P 500 peers and sport an attractive 4% dividend. Furthermore, the price chart is also in agreement that now is the time to take the other side of today’s investor pessimism. Since forming a Fibonacci-supported double-bottom pivot in December 2018, Gilead shares have established a symmetrical triangle built over 14 months. This month’s announced sales beat for the company resulted in the contrarian stock breaking above pattern resistance before settling back into a test of the triangle for support. Overall, the price action appears bullish while skewing the risk profile heavily in favor of buying shares now. Gilead Stock Strategy: I’d suggest buying this contrarian stock right now and setting a stop at $63.70. The exit contains risk to about 5% and only closes the position if Gilead’s February low and the pattern’s apex line fail. On the upside, $78 to $83.50 looks about right for profit-taking as shares challenge Fibonacci resistance and GILD’s 2018 high See the chart below. 1 Like

STOCK FOCUS Tocagen Inc. (TOCA) $1.90 When a stock is gaining over 100% in a down market, you've got to pay attention! Maybe this should have been posted Monday morning but I couldn't wait to post this one. That's because I witnessed what I have never experienced before. For the first time, I remained glued to my screen looking at the behaviour of only one stock for 30 minutes! It was past trading time last night after 9.30pm Nigerian time, but the usual market makers trading was still on so I was able to see this stock trade from 42m shares around $1.88 until it rose to a day's high of $2.35 and came down back to close at $1.90 with a total of 50.4m shares traded finally. I saw that it opened the day at a mere $0.90, meaning at a closing price of $1.90, this stock gained a whole $1.00/share, translating to a whopping 111% gain in one day! It has now gained 292% in the last 5 days, 210% in the last 1 month, and 256% from January to date. This is such an "unreal" or out-of-this-world return I had to look for information why this is happening. I wondered if this could be a typical case of what is called "Pump & dump" especially when the last info I could lay my hands on was an article written since Sept. 2019 about how the stock had slumped from an all time high of $17.95 to a terrible low of $0.42. I continued my search all night until alas I found the reason at about 4am. Tocagen is merging with Forte Biosciences. It was announced during their Conference Call on February 20, 2020. A good entry and exit timing will surely make you some serious gains on Monday. N/B: Do your due diligence. You are the CEO of your portfolio. 11 Likes |

The oracle of Omaha has spoken. While Warren Buffett doesn't prognosticate on where interest rates are heading, the legendary 89-year-old investor expects stocks to continue to outperform bonds over time. "Our perhaps jaundiced view is that the pundits who opine on these subjects reveal, by that very behavior, far more about themselves than they reveal about the future. What we can say is that if something close to current rates should prevail over the coming decades and if corporate tax rates also remain near the low level businesses now enjoy, it is almost certain that equities will over time perform far better than long-term, fixed-rate debt instruments,” Buffett wrote in Berkshire Hathaway’s (BRK-A, BRK-B) widely-read annual letter. Buffett has long argued that stretched stock market valuations are justified by the fact that interest rates are at historically low levels. On Friday, the 30-year Treasury bond yield fell to a record low. That said, Buffett cautioned that his "rosy prediction" for equities "comes with a warning." "Anything can happen to stock prices tomorrow,” he said. “Occasionally, there will be major drops in the market, perhaps of 50% magnitude or even greater. But the combination of The American Tailwind, about which I wrote last year, and the compounding wonders described by Mr. [Edgar Lawrence] Smith, will make equities the much better long-term choice FOR THE INDIVIDUAL WHO DOES NOT USE BORROWED MONEY AND WHO CAN CONTROL HIS OR HER EMOTIONS . Others? Beware!" In the opening of this year's letter, Buffett highlighted a once "obscure economist and financial advisor," Edgar Lawrence Smith, whose 1924 book “Common Stocks as Long Term Investments” would change the investment world. Specifically, the main takeaway from the book is that well-run companies retain and reinvest earnings to grow the business. Today, as Buffett points out, this once novel idea is now well-known: "combining savings with compound interest works wonders." Berkshire Hathaway's top stock holdings. Berkshire Hathaway's top stock holdings. Elsewhere, Buffett touted Berkshire Hathaway's $248 billion stock portfolio, which includes names like American Express, Apple, and Delta Airlines. Rather than stock holdings, Buffett views these as companies Berkshire Hathaway "partly owns." He added that these are companies "earning more than 20% on the net tangible equity capital required to run their businesses" and are profitable "without employing excessive levels of debt." "Returns of that order by large, established and understandable businesses are remarkable under any circumstances," Buffett wrote. "They are truly mind-blowing when compared to the returns that many investors have accepted on bonds over the last decade — 2 1/2% or even less on 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds, for example. 1 Like

And I nearly placed my order after my own analysis on the same stocks while it traded $0.80. Nevertheless, I wasn't too convinced then. And when I finally placed my order yesterday, it got rejected twice by Trove. A big lesson learned. OakPearl: |
Re: Us Stocks Pick Alert by millennium2012: 8:36pm On Feb 22, 2020 |
I have officially closed my account on Trove. Their rip off is too much. Imagine charging $2.5 for every order no matter how small, outside conversion rate of 368.8/$. Coupled with their app anomaly. I will end up working for them. I think I'd rather stick with Etoro, pending when I get a better alternative. 4 Likes |

Ride on guys, I am really enjoying being here. My fears are just with the rather pessimistic tone of some as regards the operations of Trove. You guys mentioned Chaka at sometimes but you haven't said anything much about bamboo. All these names and your reviews of them don't exude confidence at all. Trading stocks is risky enough. It looks like these brokers have not perfected their app for a lot of people to give negative reviews of their app messing up and not executing trades. Then there is this complaints of Trove overcharging. My question is for those who have experience with these brokers. Which is better in terms of friendly commissions, speed execution of trades, withdrawals and ease of funding. What about they spread? Which broker has the tightest spread and also commission. Want to fund bamboo or Trove but don't want to keep dashing my profits to these guys all in the name of unfavourable exchange, large spread, commissions and other hidden charges. 2 Likes |

Chaka added limit option on platform Chaka opted for alternative way to compensate for the profit lost as a result of delay execution of buying and selling orders. Chaka increased exchange rates conversion. Nigeria start up companies are not here to serve the masses, rather to take maximum benefits from your money. They knew that Nigerians would flock to them. Hopefully, the international brokerage platforms will open up for Nigerians in the future once the identity issue and TIN are fully functional. For now, investors have limited choices |

PRE-MARKET UPDATE As the coronavirus debacle continues, Italy becomes the latest casualty. Brace up for a massive hit to the Dow. Many expensive stocks are about to become cheaper for those looking for medium to long term value. Wealth transfer happens when the stock market is in crisis mode. Don't be in a hurry to buy until you are convinced with your due diligence. Interesting times ahead. 6 Likes |
