This year started with a lot of pessimism, and although I don't think any of that has passed, it feels like fresh air is starting to move in. In January, we were definitely still feels the pain of inflation, and it was feeling like a recession was imminent. But then a sudden AI craze sprang from the release of Chat GPT. Nvidia's stock soared, as did all manor to tech and semiconductor stocks. This may not make up the bulk of my portfoli...

Investors are certainly technically able to call themselves 'owners' if they like, but the entire point of a corporation is to spread ownership and liability. Shareholders are invited to annual meetings, and are able to vote on certain items, but they do not usually have outsized influence without banding together in extreme ways.
There are times, however, where this balance shifts, and shareholders take control. One of the most talked about was the recent takeover of $Twitter (Delisted)(TWTR.US$ by Elon M...

We've certainly seen a few turbulent years now. I've done my best to pick up some technical analysis tools along the way, but a string of unexpected bank failures should remind us that you can't predict the future. The world is full of chaos: we can try to identify patterns, but they should aid us instead of rule us.

This year started off with an unexpectedly resilient stock market. February sure turned that around... Overall my losses weren't bad enough to sell, but I didn't find too much to be excited about. Stocks seemed to do well in one part of the month, then dip suddenly a few days later. Most of my January growth slowly evaporated. Since this seems to be another year of inconsistent growth and mitigating factors, I'm planning to buy dips in favorite stocks, and take prof...
I bought $United Maritime(USEA.US)$ on a whim in July. The stock had just been released and was surging. I bought a few shares at the end of the trading day, and woke up to find that the value had plunged, and lost about 70%. Served me right, I thought, investing without doing any research, and planned on selling off in December to lower my taxable income.
USEA continued to fall a bit over summer, but eventually found a bottom and began to slowly drif...

Pro: DeMark 9® (TDS 9) occurs frequently in charts, and is very easy to spot. Draws the eye to fluctuations.
Con: It occurs frequently, and indicates changes that may or may not have much significance. It also does not seem to correspond to a specific timing for change, sometimes occurring before and sometimes after the change.
Potential useful for a quick overview of historical data. Not great for immediate indications. Best used in conjunction with ot...

Everyone seems to be in agreement that chip stocks will regain in value, but nobody wants to catch the falling knife i.e. buying while the price is still falling.
One predicted bottom I’ve heard for many industries is the prepandemic price. As the world shut down, the entire world faced an unprecedented situation, and the market entered a bubble. While there were massive layoffs, there was also free money and free time, and the market soared. The desire to s...

Leaving 2022 behind with lots of highs and lows. It had been my first year investing, and it was nothing like I expected. Coming off the highs of the pandemic, I thought I'd be able to plug some money into 'safe' companies and watch my money grow. That isn't quite how things turned out, but I learned a lot along the way.
When I started in the springtime, my goal was to build up a bigger financial cushion to maybe buy a house and start a family down the line. I sta...

I’d love to see a stock ‘Wishlist’ that people can compile. Users could share with friends to let them know what stocks they would most like. Would be different from a watchlist (personal list of stocks to watch), and function more like a registry (shareable list of gift wishes). Could be useful for sharing birthday & Christmas desires, or as an alternative for a wedding registry, baby shower, or graduation.

2022 has certainly been a year where I've seen plenty of setbacks. But I've learned that all these challenges have also forced me to find new opportunities.
I started investing online this spring, and at first was fairly cautious, investing small bits into well established companies. Watching the money grow was exciting at first - but the return was climbing too slowly. I began to look at stocks that were surging wildly in price, and I figured if I c...
