To The Moon

So, i believe the biggest issue fundamental investors have is the information they rely on. Often, more often than you think, it's actually wrong, or sometimes it's just calculated in a way you didn't realise. I will use two cases to illustrate, from one investor class... the dividend investor. I look at data every day, and dividend investors are looking for consistent and growing company dividend over time. Personally I want a dividend stock to be doing both. At least once a week, information about the stock I invest in is actually wrong. #arcc last week for eg on one site told me it paid a dividend of only 3 cents per share during 2 quarters of last year, totally wrong. Checking other sources quickly confirmed it to be totally wrong. Moral of the story... don't trust one source of data,

WOW WHAT DID I MISS $ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd.(ZIM)$  So if you have never heard of zim, well no surprise, I've had holdings, granted small ones, but it has had some insane dividends in the past. At one point over 100% dividend yield.  So its a very very large shipping company thats been round a long long time, listed on the US stock exchange for a few years now, financials are, hmmm difficult to get to the bottom off, especially the IPO ones. Based in Israel, yes i know, but lets not go there please.  Anyway, to my point. It was like 0.1% of my portfolio a week ago, annual announcements came out this week 2% reductions In revenue for the foreseeable future was all i read then quite frankly I moved on. But to be fair

It will probably hover around $1100 prior to the split but given that people particularly retail investors will like to buy it more at $110 than $1100, id pick it's going to go higher after rather than before the split. Not a rational approach to be fair. But then humans are not always rational. Another emotional play by an emotional investor. Facts are paramount, but feeling plays an interesting role when it comes to investing. I have not decided whether I'll buy direct before the split, or wait til after and buy calls@MillionaireTiger @Tiger_chat @Optionspuppy @Barcode&nb

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Can't Wait, living in New Zealand, theirs only a small window of trading time to buy or sell so this option is great

Sorry i smell a rat

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  Lots of excitement round this company atm, I'll wait til after the split and probably buy some calls

I would love to do a piece here on undelivered vs delivered promises made by $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ CEO Elon. Work in progress cause there's alot of content to review. Tesla has a huge number of lovies which could easily push the price to $200. But for me it's Like the game hangman. Eventually to many promises will be unfulfilled, the penny will drop, and the hangman will be completed 

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  The future looks bright for this chip maker, I'm picking it will be the market darling for a few weeks, maybe months. But I seem to recall was it 6 months or a year ago? Can't remember but it was being trashed. Then it wasn't, then it was, then it wasn't. To be fair, fantastic companies that get all the attention, well I tend to avoid them, only because I get totally pissed off reading all the BS about them. I'd rather focus on the stocks that just do the business, pretty much avoid the radar, and just deliver.  Nothing against Nivdia, great stock. I'm just not bothered with all the positive and negative discourse that comes with them. Sometimes a quickie is loads of fun, but long slow fore play yields better outcome

$NextEra Energy Partners LP(NEP)$  So why did I buy NEP, because they announced that they may not be able to increase their dividend recently because of the current interest rate environment. The stock dived on this news, but was it really bad news? Well their dividend yield (at close today) is 10.53%, not too shabby. They have a very solid history of consistantly paying and raising dividends, an guess what? Even though their announcement indicated they may not be able to raise the dividend this year, they just have. A classic example of market overreaction. I'm happy to keep buying this stock at current levels, banking the cold hard cash from dividends and watching as people get with the program and realise it's cheap cheap cheap. Disclosure:

$Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$ $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$  I'm Still a newbie with options, so try to play safe. So my approach so far is to go long and try to bet on certainty. But I here you thinking "nothing is certain in the stock market" and of course you are right. But based on historical data, with the S&P over the long term, the only way is up. Yes there have been corrections but on average we are told that the historical 9% average return is not beaten by most investors that try to pick stocks. And although we are also told past performance is no guarantee of future performance. Well I'd argue that the data on the S&P is so vast, well it gives a level of reliability and of course

Obviously I talk too much lol, but thanks for the badge
