    Natural gas looking like MEME stock!

    Makes sense given the worldwide shortages and news that US will sell some to Europe. And in a connected way Canada will sell to US because we don't have the logistics yet to send internationally. In a couple of years, major new pipeline opens up Asian NG market to Canadian producers. Always...

    Massive S&P options trade may have roiled U.S. stocks on Thursday

    Similar impact on monthly option expiry and most Friday/Monday as well. I've incorporated this dynamic somewhat into my trading choices but if anything I've underplayed it because I'm surprised how predictable it can be. Occasionally Friday dynamics are trumped by other dynamics; for example...

    Will the momentum continue?

    It's a mixed market where US indexes will likely be flat to moderately bullish all year after the correction Jan. 27th. The trick is to play trends in the commodity areas and buy quality US large caps on oversold conditions imo. I'd add buying banks lower range for more conservative plays...

    GBA Presents: THE BARE ESSENTIALS

    Sorry I'm mostly focused on a narrow band of Canadian stocks because in this environment Cdn$/US$ is neutral to bullish ( prob bullish ), and many valuations are cheaper in Canada. Once the cycle gets stretched I'll consider more choices ( like the lithium plays I did try ). Speaking of lithium...

    What is your stance on crypto?

    Hard to say playing energy made a lot more money most of the last two years and it's based on tangible growth in company balance sheets. The trick is to identify these huge growth situations early in the cycle and crypto may possibly be late cycle.

    Please explain how to keep up with a fricking 7.9% inflation rate...

    If you at least put a decent size of your portfolio long stocks that do well in an inflationary environment there is no problem.

    GBA Presents: THE BARE ESSENTIALS

    I've been owning this stock off and on since it was around $2.50 October 2020. MEG Energy is very similar. Great value play. They both tend to overreact on the down moves in Oil then the buyers pile in. Since the War introduced some choppiness I often treat them both as a trade but earnings...

    Interest rates rising, debt, expansion...Some stocks are not ready for it

    Perspective, since Jan. 27th ( a little over 2 months ) : SPX 4326 --> 4481 +3.6% TSX 20544.11 --> 21788. 6 +6.1%

    What is your stance on crypto?

    "More transactions settled on the bitcoin network last year than Visa!" This doesn't seem to be true. Last year, there were 188 Billion transactions on Visa. If Bitcoin is 300K-400K transactions a day it's well under 1/1000 of the number of Visa transactions.

    Basically recovered Friday's drop. FL ( Frontier Lithium ) is up 9% without the Friday drop that might suggest they will all go up. I also look at Copper as a rough leading indicator of sentiment. I still own Copper Mountain, bought Capstone and Hudbay as a day trade already took profits on...

    MORE Act v2: House passes landmark marijuana legalization bill

    Maybe but my guess is they run up some more ( eg TLRY is down 15% from recent highs ), on the chances that the vote will pass ( even if it's less then 50% chance of passing ).

    Queen Kamala

    Successful women always attract the same losers on here. She's an educated women that built a career and is now in high office. Somehow some of the crew on here that supported a psychopath like Trump has something to say about her. Trump was often incoherent and worst of all he's basically...

    GBA Presents: THE BARE ESSENTIALS

    Usual pattern of selling/listlessness on the TSX on a Friday usually is followed by buying on the next Monday. Barring any disruptive news of course. I managed to b/e but if I took the day off I'd had made 1% on my existing holdings. Cdn energy starts reporting April 28th. Any stock that you can...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    We can look back to 2010/2011 and note that some of the more popular themes were short SPX, short Canadian real estate, short AAPL, etc etc. There is something about many traders that they think whatever goes up must come down, and it's simply not true. Pullbacks can happen but when there a...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    Unemployment is already at close to record lows. Toronto had the largest creation of new IT jobs in NA in one very recent 5 year period ( higher then the next 3 largest gains combined ). There are still major companies setting up new offices here ( Facebook announced a significant new project...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    I can only speak about real estate in Toronto. Any drops at this point are really pull backs because recent price gains were quite sharp in certain segments. The overall market is bullish until at least year 2050 ( I posted this in 2010 ). Now that there is far more work at home and unemployment...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    You trued that ploy before and I blocked you. I took you off to address your very clear attempt to troll Canada. You could have discussed the topic without taking many needless basically off topic jabs at Canada but you chose not to. Obviously you aren't familiar with people who just stand up in...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    I still see no numbers. Or any evidence you can think clearly on this topic. Of course foreign ownership is relevant based on specific points in YOUR posts. Try to keep up. The evidence suggests almost your entire body of work on this forum is pure trolling if we want to be real here. But you do...

    Profit from potential home price drop in Canada, especially Vancouver and Toronto

    Go ahead let's see the numbers. I already posted that the foreign ownership in Toronto is 3.4%. So far you just make a lot of vague claims and post a lot of cynical bs about Canada. A good chunk of which is extremely misleading or false. But that seems to be how you operate. You aren't going to...
