I'm looking to invest in more dividend yielding stocks, but do dividends get invested back into your account as money or as additional stock?

>>5487438
money

Who $teum here?

AUY is doing great. Huge returns this year. Hope you guys bought the dip.

I WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE A SANTA CLAUS RALLY THIS WEEK

MAKE IT STOP PAPA SANJAY

Is today a UVXY day boyos?

>>5487596
MARA gets shilled quite a bit around these parts, apparently will be renamed to Marathon Blockchain in JAN and people keep saying it will be $10 at the very least

Unrelated, thoughts on DLPH Long anyone? Just started reading about the company this weekend and it seems solid

>>5487625
uvxy santa claus rally this week for all the good little NEETs

>>5487456
I don't know if I want to,hold this long term or take profits.

MCB - this is the bank that coinbase uses, every transaction through cb makes them money.

OSTK, TEUM, DPW, SSC

>>5487596
Good way to read these stocks is to watch the bitcoin market. If bitcoin starts to fall, these stocks will fall. Like last week all these stocks fell because bitcoin tanked and if you were smart enough to buy them at market close you’re going to be seeing some nice profits this morning because of the bitcoin rally.

>>5487698
SSC is up today. Blew past my profit sell. DPW has sold off enough to counter that.

Get in on DPW while it's still low

ALT building up steam.

With 2017 winding down. I'm interested in what everybody speculates will be the best picks for 2018. I also want to bring discussion to the /biz/ consensus for the performance of individual sectors will be.

>>5488197

How about you go fuck yourself?

>>5488197
Im all in on cannabis and hemp stocks for 2018. Lot of legislation changes happened over the last few years to set up for some big changes really soon. IGC is a great long imo because they've got a patent on a 0% THC strain of cannabis, making it ideal for industrial hemp and creating the possibility of crop insurance for industrial hemp growers. They're expected to start growing it in May of 2018, and once that crop is harvested at the end of 2018 I expect yuge profits. IGC is another great pick, I just got out of it this morning after the big blockchain PR announcement. US based company doing CBD therapy. The growing leeway given to low THC cannabis grows should benefit their company as well, along with the growing cultural acceptance of medicinal cannabis.

>>5488197
I've seeing a lot that tech might not do as well this year.

>>5488197
Looking for long, short, swing, day?

Also, I could use some resources on what’s moving, how to read charts, basic how to’s and where to look. The shit memed here is invariably at the top of a pump. The only pick that’s made me money was the one I own as a product.

>>5488341
so hostile.....


i like it

>>5488344
Sorry, typo. XXII has the 0% thc hemp.

>>5488341
you having a bad day friend?

Why won't dpw fucking move.
Bought this piece of shit for 4 dollars. Thought bitcoin pump would help.
Other shitty crypto stocks are pumping except this trash

>>5488382

I was having a good day until I came here. I need to stop coming here.

Thanks for asking. How's your day going, friend?

I'm really skeptical about investing in the US Cannabis market. With it still being schedule 1 and a republican controlled government I don't see this taking off. Just too easy for the feds to change their mind and completely destroy your investment. There are other options for lucrative gains, and I'm not saying you're wrong. I would just stick to Canadian pot companies, where they have a liberal at the helm who's going to back this shit.

>>5488355
What kind of tech? I'm thinking we could see growth in cloud computing. Semi-conductors saw their boom, but will probably just end up trading sideways all year.

>>5488358
I'm looking for any speculation. Finviz is pretty good for a market scanner. Just start reading stuff and figure out what you can.

>>5488483

Should have bought the Indian cannabis turned blockchain company

Making money doesn't have to be exciting. Are you expecting REITs to go crazy? They usually offer great dividends, and if you can grab a few points on top of that, isn't that what we're all about here? Making money?

>>5487375
What are some good stocks that are actually available on Robinhood? A lot of the shit on here isn't on there.

AMRS baybayyy

has anyone shilled UBIA here?

>>5489550
I’m expecting solid moves out of almost all tower and data center REITs, residentials and looking at EXR and CUBE to keep moving.

>>5489746
nm not on rh

>>5489490

Also, in regards to energy. I've never really tried too hard to understand that market. It's a pretty wide market with a lot of intrinsic details and different players. You've got oil, nat-gas, nuclear, renewables, coal. Then there's the transportation and infrastructure that supports these different forms of energy. You have see good gains in one while the others tank. What kind of strategy would you recommend for some one interested in getting started out investing in energy?

I have an interesting stock for 2018. Even though i think BGFV is going to do well for 3-6 months i have another stock that i think will do oddly well if anyone is interested

>>5489649
Oh and I told you guys about TWMJF for weed last week. (Not on RH)

>>5489850

Let me guess, Sears?

>>5489888
let me guess, you are going to hate on the BGFV pick as it climbs up into the high teens and almost to $20 and never ever make gains on it? wow. what are you doing here again?

and no it's not sears it has something to do with a new california law that takes effect on jan. 1 but it isn't about weed.

>>5489950
>climbs up into the high teens and almost to $20

Have you considered a career in comedy?

>>5489888

Think more niche and smaller market share.

>>5489979
ok retard. just watch as it does it. Been saying this since 6.40 and people are still hating. i guess you really just don't understand how stocks work.

>>5489950
Just tell us what this interesting stock is. If it's DRYS though I'm gonna fucking lose it

>>5490003
yes it is a niche i did some research on it over the weekend and it's not one of my usual type of stocks but i think it's going to do well for a particular reason, they have a few products but only one that i am interested in.

>>5489888
kek

I'm already on it, I just wish it would let me transfer some back to my bank account as quickly as it lets me deposit from it cause I got bills to pay.

Still it's great so beginners like me don't pay extra when they pick a losing stock. I wish the graph updated quicker, though. You also need to supplement it with other sources of information, as its news feed is very lackluster. But yeah it's been good so far.

The company is OraSure Technologies, Inc. (OSUR)

They make a take home HIV test kit.

The governor of California recently signed a law that now if you knowingly pass HIV onto someone it is no longer a felony as of 2018. The law has been dropped to misdameanor.

This is not my usual type of stock, i usually trade based off accumulation/distriubution phases, short interest, fundamentals of shares structure, and basic fundamentals of company. Although I don't usually trade the kind of set up and stock that OSUR is i think it'll have interesting potential for 2018.

On their 10-q it states that they are now shipping this HIV home test to other countries and that sells have been going up.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1116463/000119312517338742/d480771d10q.htm
Pg 20 of their Q

>Net product revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased 43% when compared to the first nine months of 2016, primarily due to higher sales of our molecular and OraQuick® HCV products and increased international sales of our OraQuick® HIV self-test.

With HIV testing it takes anywhere from 3 weeks to 6 months for people to develop antibodies to get an accurate test. HIV symptoms come on 3-4weeks after being infected at which time 95% will have detectable antibodies, the other 5% won't

OSUR at home HIV test will be able to test most individuals at 4 weeks but the test still won't be considered conclusive, the person would have to wait 3 months to get a conclusive test from the OSUR at home HIV test.

with this being said, i wen't through the HIV forums that talked about the OSUR at home HIV test, and it appears to me that alot of people that think they might have HIV buy the test at around 4 weeks, test, then again at 6 weeks and test, then again at 8 weeks and test.

Some even go on to say they've bought 5 within a month times to test.

Cont..

First of all the AIDS only infects homosexuals. So once again you've got a niche market and are eliminating the vast majority of American consumers. Secondly can't these faggots already get free AIDS testing from the government? I'm not touching this one.

>>5490330
There are people that are buying this test left and right just to treat themselfs and also buying the test for others just to be sure.

I became pretty interested in the new HIV law because i live in california and had no idea they had a at home test for HIV

Their revenues are growing and they also have gotten grant money for other product production, grant money typically doesn't have to be paid back.

Bill and melinda gates foundation has given them some money aswell.

Their revenue is already growing and i think it'll continue to grow since they just recently started shipping this test internationally and plus with the new california law and ever increasing population.

there is more in their Q that points to them still growing and it might be a good stock to hold a small portion of in your portfolio.

The market cap is currently sitting around 1.1billion but i think the market cap could get into the 10-20billion range.

I won't continue to go through my findings if you guys aren't interested.

Hopefully some TA specialist in here could help with an entry point because like i said, this isn't the usual type of set up i like to trade but i think this company has real potential for 2018

also they do have other products im just interested in the at home HIV test and how paranoid people buy them up like candy.

How high is Macy's going to go?
I sold @ $25.50 and getting FOMO

>>5490441
>Secondly can't these faggots already get free AIDS testing from the government?
Yes but they don't because they don't want to go be seen in a clinic they rather wait around 3 months buying test up and using it rather than go to the damn clinic after a few weeks for blood testing.

I read up on all the forums, when this law changes the gay community which is heavy in california will get a little paranoid and start buying up this product, the company is seeing YOY growth and with international shipping i think they will continue to do so.

Just read some of the forums about HIV testing, some people buy this test every other day due to paranoia.

I don't think it's going to moon, i just think it might be a good hold to have maybe 5% of your portfolio in, it also doesn't pay a dividend but they have a well established product (amongst other productst) and will be having a higher demand (imo) due to the change in laws in california.

I don't care if AIDS are for gays.. im in this to make money, and shit, ill make money off aids patients

>>5490386
jesus christ man, this shit is fucking crazy some fucking weirdos out there

I bought into IGC, am I stupid?

It's really over bought on the daily chart, I'd look for an entry closer to $17.09 if the stock doesn't bounce up from $18.33 support. You'd have to be some kind of poz-hole crack head to buy this at its current price.

>>5490746
>IGC

Ask yourself how it is going to make you money

>>5490923
yeah that is what i was thinking was waiting for a strong pullback, like i said it's not my usual trading style but the whole at home test intrigued me and how often people buy these things.

Im not going to enter it just yet but i'm going to keep an eye on it forsure, theres alot of good stuff in their 10-q, i just don't think it's the right entry point for it

>>5490746

Typical biz. Never change

DO SOMETHING DPW

>>5491689
forward split. This is what you want to own as long as we stay in a bull market. If you think we are at the end of the cycle and about to turn bearish, uvxy will actually be the one you want to trade until it reverts to backwardation and begins doing the same thing that products like vmin and svxy do.

>>5491762
Once the backwardation has taken place, you can swing it/own uvxy. Until then, these will continue to decay while the svxy and vmin of the world do the exact opposite.

>>5491438
Why are you bullish on bgfv

Sports retail is hard - that’s why cos like Cabelas and Bass Pro have merged. Others have gone bankrupt(sports authority i think). BGFV has a low-end product assortment

It’s way over-exposed to California economy (50 pct of stores there), which is projected to stagnate for next few years. I just don’t see the bull case

>>5491762

Im not sure what you mean forward split. You mean just a standard split?

>>5491753

How heavy are those bags?

How many of you are full-time investors and for those that are part-time, then what do you do as your job?

>>5491808
It was a dividend.

>>5491808
Those terms are interchangeable i believe. Yes, same as "normal" split.

I actually apologize though. They did pay a divy. I didn't think they did. Wow. 25%... Holy shit

>>5491829
Still up 24 cents

>>5491797
>I just don’t see the bull case
maybe you should read the filings

>Others have gone bankrupt(sports authority i think)
also sports chalet
this is the point, less competition and BGFV has survived and not only has it survived it is building new stores and growing. It is a well established company that has been around for a long time that not only survived the sports retail down market (due to too over saturating sporting good stores) but is now building new stores and creating a strong foothold for when the market rebounds without much competition.

I can go into so much detail of why BGFV is going to have nice gains next 3-6 months with a dividend and share buyback program in place, but i suggest you read the filings for yourself.

>>5492002
Buy BGFV and maybe MYDX, EVIO and RSII

>>5489490
Why energy?

>>5489550
The reason why no one on this board aside from a handful of us care about shit like this is because you can't exactly put $100 on cell tower reits and make any money that matters

This is why biz went crazy over cryptos. For $100, you can buy at .0000001 and sell at .0000002 and youve doubled your money. More volatility, which is great for kids gambling on xmas money

I miss the days of actual threads on investing, real estate, etc. I love the idea of making/saving/investing and receiving gains enough to the point where I can buy something that doesn't move and just live the rest of my live on a beach getting a check every month

>>5492200
Look at the price of crude and it’s trend

>>5492348
>I miss the days of actual threads on investing, real estate, etc.

i think those old guys just became rich and stopped browsing forums

Opinions for 2018?

>>5492424
I'm not sure if I'll still come here or not when I finally make it.
>>5492438
I concur. Or make it to where you have to have actual information on what you're trying to shill, instead of "(insert shit coin). Why should I buy this, biz?", and then have 100 different threads just like that

>>5492615
I approve. NRZ is your best one

>>5487375
>I can't really day trade without getting banned

So, just make a relatively diverse portfolio and get reasonable returns?

>>5492348
Dividends are exactly what I want, that sit on it and forget it autonomy but the problem I (and correct me if I'm wrong) is that you can't buy a fraction of a share it has to be 1 whole share. The advantage of crypto is that you can sub divide coins. Still though I love dividends and I'm still learning about how to pick good stocks.

-I avoid one's with super high p/e ratios because it doesn't seem sustainable.
-I look for yields around 3-5% for long hold stocks and then do a little research into what the company does.
-I look to see if they have been increasing their dividend to keep up with inflation

What other factors should I be on the lookout for possible healthy dividend yielding stocks?

and what's the best way to figure out if a stock is undervalued?

>>5493087
all these questions could be answered by simply looking into BGFV desu

Is the marathon news real? Can anyone confirm with proof? I’m willing to risk some big money on it

TEUM halted, see you boys on Pluto!!!

>>5493087
I use the following for super long holds:
Book value
P/E
Sector performance
Personal opinion on the future of the product/service the company provides

As for swing trades, I use a lot of techs.
MACD
A/D line
RSI

I also buy a lot of penny stocks with no volume but have decent business plans. When you can get in on the ground floor(Do your DD please. It's crucial with stocks but especially with pennies), you can maximize your returns.

For instance, AIRI is one of my favorites and fits the description.
They'll profit off of Trump funding the military.
They continue to get contracts
Cheap and no one knows about it.

When you buy BEFORE they become memes, you are considered smart money. Smart money profits, while schmucks chasing dreams by buying whatever and doing no homework get rekt when the shit crashes.

Put some cash on some promosing pennies. Sell half when they get to 100% returns, because you never know where these companies could be in 2, 3, 4, or 5 years. You'll have made your capital back, built a portfolio, and riding free shares, so the fluctuation of the stock on the day to day won't matter that much.Imagine if they become so profitable that they can afford a divy? (Unlikely but still)

>>5493440
THATS WHAT IM TALKING BOUT

BOOM GOES THE TEUM

Assuming it moons. I need a good selling point

>>5493574
damn. me either. I changed from Ustocktrade to Robinhood, and had to sell mine before the transfer. Take a gander on what day I sold. Hint: It was the day before it jumped to 1.60's

I'll buy again when it comes down though. I love AIRI's potential

SSC picking up traction too

>>5493619
For pennies I like AIRI WMIH and CPHI right now.

so you started trading right before the tech trend started im guessing?

>>5493997
At least I can say I'm not as autistic as someone who actually believes in some third rate ghetto tier retail store

Sold my Nak for TEUM
Good decision

>>5493997
the market is cyclical. Tech will fall a bit or remain stagnant and money will flow into something else. The key is finding that something else. I'm thinking short term that it's oil. Find a penny stock related to oil(There are plenty. Trust me). Sit on it.

Last year, I bought LNCO and made a solid profit because they all pumped at once with oil. With crude closing at its best close since 2015(Get CNBC notifications too. Normise tend to buy what cnbc tells them to). These types of notifications are usually indicative of what's to come.(See Bitcoin surge to 20k)

>>5494057
i just trade man, i really don't care about stores as much as i care about natural business cycles and accumulation distribution with stocks. hate all you fucking want but ill trade anything as long as there is money to be made because i know how to actually fucking trade.

huurr duurr i only know how to trade tech stock because i happend to start trading when they were going up and i don't know how to trade anything else

how about you actually learn to trade no matter the fucking sector.

Im here to make money on price action doesn't matter the sector.

Can’t tell you why, but I’m now all in on KEM. Ride or die

What's going on with that Long Island Ice Tea blockchain company? Crypto is recovering and they're going down?

>>5493484
Same anon here I just switched to my mobile.

All good to know, I'm still learning the trading terms but this sounds like a great start. I've only invested in a few stocks on Robinhood (Ford, and one other) so far Ford is the only one that paid me a dividend ($.60/per share) but I was psyched for it. Now I'm looking to go in a little harder but only after I've done my DD. I've also started reading up on Benjamin Graham who Warren Buffet recommended as a means of being able to understand how to better evaluate companies/stocks to see if they are a good deal.

Any authors you recommend checking out? Thanks again for the help.

>>5494502
thanks for that BGFV pick, I think this is going to $20 in the next few months

>>5494799
>You're going to tire yourself out feeding the trolls. BGFV is having a great day. Enjoy.
i get full of rage sometimes :( i feel as if this is all easy to understand and newbs that got lucky their first few months of trading think they know what they are doing but really don't. I know i shouldn't get worked up but im really just trying to help people, the back and forth in here is actually what i think made me a what i consider a decent trader imo.

if it weren't for /rgt/ i don't think i would have learned as much as i do now and that is because i have listened to others that seem to know what they are doing rather than bash them without hearing what they have to say.

There have been many times i've pointed out a stock that i think is going up and some anon says it's going down, tells me why and he ends up being right. then there have been opposite times where it does go up. That guy doesn't seem to want to learn how the game works and it just gets me frustrated. Im just trying to make people some money just as many anons in here have helped me make money

>>5495285
i think so too Faggy, it's really undervalued and a very stable company that is growing.

The value alone is beautiful plus with the actual trade cycle of the stock we good

BGFV wasn't even on my radar before you shilled it here. Now, it is one of my favorite holdings. Let the haters hate. I plan to talk a lot of shit here when it does what I expect it to do in the coming months.

Always been telling ya nerds about LTBR, hope some of you made some gains

I don't like penny stocks because that shit could go the wrong way quickly

I got burned when the dilution came months ago. Held from 1.80 up to 2.2 and thought something big was happening. Dropped nearly a third in one day when the dilution came and thankfully I sold at 1.60. I'm scared to hold it now

Cute gains. Come to TEUM for real money, $5+ eow.

>shitty company that lost over 90% of its value over the past 8 years and is only at $2 now because it tricked some gullible people by getting on the fake crypto stock bandwagon

You sound mad like your daddy raped you and then held you down for your uncle to take his turn. Wipe the blood and semen off your gapping asshole and cheer up buddy. We are all gonna make it.
