Yeah gap filled pretty quick. I'm sort of surprised at the market reaction.

I love this thread. I learn shit from it and look up things I don’t understand. There’s a lot less garbage here than random investing forums and people answer noob questions Without being dicks. 1/3 of my investments are from advice/conversations in this thread.

For those looking for an under the radar investment take a look at TER. Teradyne Inc. They make automated testing systems for all sorts of segments including semiconductors, wifi chipsets, memory chips etc. EPS growth is 15% ttm and they make about $3 a share in earnings. Very little debt (long term debt less than 2019 EBITDA). Its not "cheap", but I can see a 15-20% window up possible from its current price.

Needless to say, do your own due diligence.

So this jumped like 4% today.

I bought 10 shares of it with some spare cash sitting in the account. What the hell. Got it at 65

i gotta think in a few years dkng under $40 is going to look like a steal. no reason that stock isn't worth several hunderd dollars imho once more states open up for gambling.

P/E 860.... I mean I can see them getting helped by covid, but those are some massive shoes.

Buy a boat and bug out like the rest of the elites

Civil War means invest in lead, gunsmithing and reloading tools....

and long lasting food. Dig out a bunker on some rural land.

Sanrith Descartes · May 30, 2020

Just my opinion, but I believe one of the great mistakes many investors make is looking for the "homerun" stock. Look at all the great stocks today, AAPL, MSFT, GOOG, FB, AMZN, WMT etc. They all Wallowa for a long time. I remember FB dropping to like $18 a share a while after the IPO. In baseball, homerun hitters strikeout a ton. Tony Gwynn, Wade Boggs, Ichiro and many others went to the HOF hitting singles and doubles while almost never striking out.

Buy quality and hold it. Remember if a stock looks underpriced in today's information age, there is a reason its priced the way it is. Price discovery tends to be really good these days.

Government contractor companies. In either scenario they are still making stuff for the gubment.

True.

Maybe boot and denim companies?

Nah, you need to think big time. Weapons and shit. Even if they don't use them on our own people they can sell them to 3rd world dictators. RTX, LMT, GD and the like. Weapon manufacturers never go out of style.

Looks like we might get some looting/rioting discounts on stocks tomorrow based on futures.

Sanrith Descartes · May 31, 2020

Futures just turned green. Not even mass acts of sedition throughout the country can keep the market red.

Gotta be billions in damages at this point. Entire upscale shopping centers ransacked all over the country.

Does insurance cover all this?

My guess is it would depend on the wording of the policy.

LachiusTZ · May 31, 2020

Saw statements earlier about civil blah blah, not covered.

Guessing there will be govt handouts to cover all of it, because as a country we are immune to consequence.

Big Phoenix · May 31, 2020

Theres gotta be some economic fall out over this. For the past 48+ hours LA, Philly and a few other cities has had a looting free for all.
