    CEO of Nio is the Real Deal!

    The NIO model is complicated. Battery swapping seems like a good idea but it's a logistics nightmare. A 7 to 8 minutes swap time isn't particularly fast if you have 3-4 cars ahead of you and the swapping stations must always have stock. This works when you have few vehicles but become quite...

    $TSLA

    Cashing in on the credits is part of the present business model, not some fluke that keeps Tesla afloat. Remember, without government intervention there would be no GM or Ford or Chrysler and that doesn't include oil subsidies over many decades. Yes, there is no rational for Tsla price. But...

    Day trading vs swing trading vs investing...

    Interesting observation. I trade at 1 min, occasionally going to 5 min for perspective, but always feel I'm missing out on something. 5 min seems like a long time and much can happen in that time frame, although I have gotten caught a few times by sudden drops after hitting a high that...

    Day trading vs swing trading vs investing...

    I'm a day trader until I have to become a swing trader :D but no patience for investment trading (although I have an investment account opened in Q1 2020 that I use as a measuring point for how well I'm day/swing trading). At end of 2020 it was up 30% which isn't good enough for me but waiting...

    Traders...how did you do in 2020? I crushed it after two blown out accounts!

    Congratulations on your success. I suggest you measure your returns as a percentage of your investment, because $40K doesn't mean anything. If your returns are better than that of a managed fund less fees, you're doing really well! I couldn't beat my managed fund which returned a stunning...

    Future of Options?

    I only trade equities and would welcome 24/7 trading as not everyone is US EST. Also I would ban fractional trading which make stock splits much less meaningful.

    $TSLA

    Looks like some of my predictions were right and others not (but, how can it be?). I expected Tsla to have dropped significantly by now but it hasn't. In fact it's at an all time high. So congratulations to those who held on to the shares! Tsla share price is defying all established...

    On covid outlook

    I live in Singapore and saw the impact of covid well before most of you if you live in Europe or the US. I put my 401k to cash on the day of the crash and prevented a 25% drop to my account. I also put everything back in the market in early March, when everyone was pulling out. At the end of...

    What is greater Wisdom or Wealth?

    What I know and the cash in my pocket! Of course it would have been nice to have all this long before I reached my late 50s, but better late than never.

    I was told that USD $ is going to collapse, True ?

    I'm certainly no currency expert or even have basic understanding of trends. All I have is age and memory and I can still remember when the dollard dipped to near toilet paper before euro days. It seems to me that competition with the euro has kept it from dipping that low again but there's no...

    Recent hot sectors, which are you following?

    I'm following EV supply chain (mining, batteries, vehicles) and enterprise apps (QS, SNOW, LMND, RNG, CRWD and a couple others).

    I was told that USD $ is going to collapse, True ?

    It wouldn't be the first time the US devalued its currency to spruce up its exports and liven its economy. Generally happens after a national election.

    I was told that USD $ is going to collapse, True ?

    Speaking of my experience, I bought an apartment in Spain in September and would not have been able to secure a euro loan if my employment income had been in US dollars... for that specific reason.
