I just don’t like the look of the plastic stuff, however some of the fake wood looks pretty good.

Metals are boring AF and produce mediocre gains generally speaking

Only guy I know of that made big gains on silver was because he was playing USLV which is a 3x long ETN, he was holding for over a year though and really just had good timing (of course he was pissed because he sold it all at once instead of averaging out like all you noob fuks do on here and everywhere else......So he missed out on another massive run up).

The real gains are elsewhere imo and I love precious metals (long time coin enthusiast) but I prefer to hold the physical metal now, the stonks I traded like GDX and what not gave me blue balls/narcolepsy.

Forex has always intrigued me though since we're kind of on a similar subject. Metals and currency to me are short day/swing trades/options. I'd never go long on them unless I by the physical metal (which is more of a asset/security at this point than an investment).

And of course its different when you play the options side of thing like venom and a few others have done. I don't do options...yet

Cliffs- Precious metals are boring but you can make money....Just not anything comparable to playing the big boy stocks on the big boy exchanges

Edit- But yeah....That's like just my opinion mannnnnnnn there's always money to be made in every sector. Tech, pot stocks and crypto is where I made most of my **** and it makes my gains from metals look like fractions of pennies

Less than a month ago they were projecting a 70B direct list lol. Could legitimately list at 120B+. Same thing with Stripe trading at a +100B cap on private markets on around 500M revenue.

seems like everyone is down ITT. what are ya'll holding thats down? Alot of tech stocks? (sorry I havnt been keeping up well, very busy)

I just dont understand, all indices are near all-time highs. My account's all-time high is $148k, usually hovering around 147k, hasnt dipped below $146k in like over a month.

(Maybe im getting lucky? my anus is prepared for correction, I have a little cash ready)

I’d say small-cap growth stocks in general (which many are tech, but also non-tech ones too) have been battered hard the past few weeks

I'm not all that far off ATH in my accounts. The vast majority of my holdings in my 401k and taxable account are index funds, so those have done ok. The tech drop hurt a bit. I don't have a huge position in individual stonks, but what I do have has been a bit of a mixed bag . . . done well in some (AAL, PLTR, CTYX) and had a slow bleed in a few others (BABA, AAPL)

Gonna do what NIO did yesterday.

Pop before market and than fade.

Month ago analyst were predicting 185K than they lowered it down to 165K so now it can be sold better they beat 165K estimates.

"The new Model S and Model X have also been exceptionally well received, with the new equipment installed and tested in Q1 and we are in the early stages of ramping production."

what does that even mean, they haven't even made single model yet of new S and X.

This could be bad for growth stocks on such massive beat.

Yield will rise again.

Citi Group was predicting 10 year yield will be 2.5% by June.

10 year yield opened this year at 0.9% not even 4 months in and its its almost doubled 1.726%
