Guys, what about that Target $TGT this week? I saw that it reported results, but the main driver to the downside (down 20%) was the weaker outlook for the Christmas season. I guess that's not that drastic right? Or was there something else negative said?
How much do you take into account the outlook of companies in your analysis? It's just that such $ASML is not looking bad at all right now price-wise and I came across its outlook this morning which looks pretty good.
I recently sold off my stake in $TR due to underperformance and the dividend wasn't that interesting to hold on to either. Still, I walk away with some +9%, which is the main thing. However, I have a spot in my portfolio right now for some dividend stocks. Can you post some of your divi portfolio stocks? Ideally the yield should be at least 4-5%.
An incredible performance by $TSM. Revenues in 2024 will reach $83 billion, up from $8 billion in 2004. But do you think the current pace is sustainable? For the next couple of years I guess it's clear, but what's next? Is anyone keeping TSM here for the long term?
Great company, so far I only have $ASML and $NVDA from this industry. TSM is pretty high right now and we'll mostly see how the US election goes as it may affect a lot of things too.
Hey! Hey! I would like to ask about your portfolio allocation in terms of how many positions you focus on dividend stocks and how many on growth stocks and possibly other assets?
I have it about 50/50, the one half which is dividend stocks makes up sort of the stable part of the portfolio, while in the other half I have some big tech, pharmaceutical companies and a few "play"... Read more
Hi investors, I would like to know your opinion. I'm sure you've all noticed how China has started pumping money into growth, easing rates, supporting companies, just to kick start growth again (they want to achieve 5% growth this year if I'm not mistaken).
Short term? Probably great if you hold Chinese stocks. But what about the long term implications? Does anyone here have an... Read more
Well, I thought about it before, but I decided that I just won't buy stocks from China. The only thing that would probably make sense to me is to position for some short period of time and sell at a nice profit.
What do you currently say about stocks from China? Are you buying?
Chinese stocks plunged today to their lowest level since January 2019, a grim reflection of how investors have lost faith in the country's earnings and economic recovery. The CSI 300 index closed with a 0.4% loss on Thursday, down around 14% from its May high.
It's been 15 years since Disney $DIS bought Marvel Studios for $4 billion. Since then, Disney has made more than $30 billion worldwide from Marvel movies. But what's next for the division? It seems to me that Marvel has begun to decline a bit. How do you feel about that?
Hello, investors. Do you think $NVDAwill look at a new ATHafter earnings ? 🤔
What do you guys expect from the results anyway? And do you think the main driver will be outperformance x disappointment in terms of forecasts or outlook for the rest of the year ?
Same as the banks, they're always being discussed here. 😂 ...anyway I'm here, I had to dilute because I got hasty and now I'm averaging around 140$ ...hence I'm still in the negative. I'm not worried about the company, it's big, operates a lot around the world and is still working on innovations it's good at. As Stepan writes, it has settled in a sideways trend now where I think it might not go down anymore even though I don't expect any earnings growth this year either. But once more and more interest rates are low, I believe there will be demand for solar products again and the company will kick it back up in price per share. So we'll see, but that outlook is certainly long. 😊
Intel $INTC dropped almost 20% after the results in the after market! Is that tempting to you when you consider the plan to cut costs, lay off employees and cut the dividend? Or do you need to see some evidence that the company is on the mend first?
Today on the agenda we have earnings johnson & johnson $JNJ. What are your expectations? 17 analysts are estimating earnings of $2.71 per share compared to earnings of $1.98 per share in the same quarter a year ago.
Analysts at Berenberg have raised their estimates for the global obesity market to $150 billion by 2035, up from $125 billion previously. This revision is the result of positive data on co-morbidities and advances in competing studies. Berenberg recommends buying shares of $LLY and Zealand Pharma, while he recommends holding on to shares of $NVO.
Shein is committed to investing in the UK and Europe ahead of a potential IPO.
Fast-fashion retailer Shein said it will invest 250 million euros ($271 million) over five years in the U.K. and Europe as the company battles criticism of its model based on shipping cheap clothes and accessories from factories in China directly to customers around the world.
I'm staying away from TGT and would rather look at other stocks in the sector. WMT is doing very well, but their stock is pretty expensive right now.
