    Tesla 2020

    Just for kicks... did you make the same prediction about Amzn in 2015?

    Tesla 2020

    From CNBC: Taking the total S&P market value to be $27.8 trillion, this would give Tesla a 0.8% weighting if it were to join the index. This means that funds tracking the index would need to buy roughly $30 billion worth of Tesla stock. Not to mention active managers that track the index, as...

    Day trading profit target

    The year is far from over and much can happen between now and December, but I'm on target to beat my 401k to the finish.

    Fractional trading and stock splits

    Closing at 1835 yesterday, I'd say the split announcement has done far more than I had expected, and no S&P confirmation yet, and battery day is still 3 weeks away! Watch for Tsla to break 2k soon...

    I don't think I can use E-Trade living in Singapore.

    Picking lots to sell

    As a newbie trader, I discover new things on my learning adventure. Early on I realized that not all platform allow 4 am to 8 pm EST trading and, in fact, very few do even if they aggressively promote 24h trading (yes, you TDAmeritrade) but only with a handful of companies. Recently I learned...

    Day trading profit target

    I measure my trading goals against investment opportunities in the real world, simply because if I can't beat those then I might as well put my money with them. For example, the highest investment return I've found happens to be my 401k which is on fire, with +50% returns this year so far...

    (With a Poll) To those who trade for living, how much trading capital did you start with ?

    TradeTune you're off on a tangent. The question is very simple:. How much capital did you start trading with? It asks nothing about outcomes.

    Fractional trading and stock splits

    I had thrown this one out a few days ago hoping for insights that never came, in anticipation of Tsla's split which was announced yesterday. Seems to me that fractional trading is a boon to brokerage houses yet does a disservice to those companies wishing to use stock splits in their strategy. I...

    Day trading is for suckers?

    What stuns me more than anything is the lack of humility of those guys (we have a few in here as well). Based on law of averages, big highs are likely to lead or follow big lows but I don't expect bragging videos about those. Must be a generational or probably just a personality thing.

    Electrek news: Tesla, Inc. (“Tesla”) announced today that the Board of Directors has approved and declared a five-for-one split of Tesla’s common stock in the form of a stock dividend to make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors. Each stockholder of record on August 21...

    Huawei chips

    I'm not one to boast of my country's superiority if in the end it means thousands of dead or more on either side. Today's China is far stronger than yesterday's, yet they would lose a war, at great cost to all. Lest we forget, Western countries propped up China from poverty starting in the...

    Huawei chips

    Not stupid, just not familiar enough with the various corporate strategies that led so many big and small western businesses to plant their tents in China.

    Huawei chips

    Taiwan Semi makes chips (my mistake, not Intel in this particular case) under various Us agreements, so the fact remains that Trump is inciting China to build their own manufacturing facility to bypass US sanctions. Taiwan Semi is probably indemnified by the US government for the loss of...

    Huawei chips

    Now you're not making sense. China will be manufacturing their own chips for the sake of their sovereignty and independence, and Intel will be losing tons of money because they will be left out of the phone chip market. Remember that US and European companies went to China because it was good...

    Huawei chips

    That or maybe you don't know enough about manufacturing to understand this.

    Huawei chips

    But it's the Chinese who can't build their phones because they don't have their sovereignty and independence? It goes both ways and in the end we all lose.

    Huawei chips

    Much of Germany's car parts manufacturing is done in China as well. The robots are for assembly. I've been to Chinese manufacturing plants where all their sophisticated machinery is made in Germany.

    Huawei chips

    So much politics going on between China and the US right now, it's very difficult to figure out each other's end goal, other than perhaps Trump trying to provoke China into a hot headed response which the Chinese won't bite into. They know time's on their side. Still, fundamental issues remain...
