It is a Dividend King, trading at 104w ATL. Div Yield of 4.69% habing several buy consensus which range between 46 to 52 USD. Last quarter earnings were above expectations. Under this circumstances this is a growth and div stock. What are your thoughts?

I am very much aware how everyone says never change your strategy, stick to it and work on it until you become profitable. In my case, my strategy is fundemenatally broken. Ive been trading for more than a year, and my strategy is based on techncials. I've noticed my strategy is really dependant on the overall condition of the market. Rarely do I ever make a profit when the market is in the red and vice versa. I want to move to a completely different strateg

I can’t find anything about any publicly traded scaffolding companies. Recently watched ‘ how to with john Wilson’ and one episode goes into the world of scaffolding in NYC and the need for it and how it’s over a 50bill market that isn’t going anywhere as we are only going to be continuing to build upwards. Anyone know the best play for this opportunity?

Hello! I’m 21 yo, investing every month into this pie I made. I also buy S&P500 monthly. I achieved around 3-4% higher return on individual stocks compared to S&P.

Hey guys,

Believe it or not, I wrote this post yesterday at work, circa 3 hours before the news about the company and its shares skyrocketing. I'm from the field so I've heard about the drug for obesity around 3 months ago for the first time. Even though now probably not a good buy due to the momentum and hype, I'll post the original post anyway:

What's your opinion about Novo Nordisk (NVO). It's not the best buy right now and

PayPal has become the first major US fintech company to offer its own crypto token with a dollar-pegged stablecoin called PayPal USD. The company is entering an extremely crowded market already dominated by stablecoins like tether and USDC, at a time when the hype over cryptocurrency has largely fizzled and prices have been mostly stable with no big run-ups since 2022. PayPal's chief crypto executive, Jose Fernandez da Ponte, believes that stablecoins are th

Prominent China hawk Kyle Bass told CNBC on Tuesday that he believes Chinese President Xi Jinping is determined to “bring war to the West,” with an invasion of Taiwan likely before the end of 2024.

Bass, who is founder and chief investment officer at U.S. investment firm Hayman Capital Management, said that the West — and particularly Wall Street — is too preoccupied by the apparent economic unviability of such an attack.

From what I understand, when I short-sell a stock, the sale amount gets credited to my cash balance, and often have to pay a 0% interest for the position (depending on the broker and how hard the stock is to locate). I also know that because of regulation T, I need to have 150% of the value of the shorted stock in my account (100% of the current market value and 50% more as collateral). I am wondering if there is any broker that will allow me to keep that collat

I am interested in purchasing a penny stock. It closed at .85 cents and the buy is currently .8 (the ask is .81). At what price is it best to set my limit order to have the best chance of the trade executing at open? I currently have it set at the close price of .85, but was wondering if I should set it closer to the bid price. Confused newbie. Thanks for any advice.

If you buy into a vanguard mutual fund before closing time, you get the close price at the end of that day.

But how is your price effected if you buy on the ex dividend date?

For example if the close price is $100 but the dividend is $2 would you pay $98 a share or would you pay the full $100, not receive the dividend, and effectively be penalized the $2 when the shares dropped after the dividend?

Which others can we add to the list?

Dear all, I would like to pick up your collective financial brain. I work for a UN agency and for our pension we have different investment options (this is not a 401K). We can contribute up to 11% of our gross salary and the employer matches it 100%. We can compose our portfolio as we want selecting 20% of this, 10% of that, etc. I am pretty sure we have a "special" option which is the "3% option" which guarantees us 3% net over the CPI of th

Datadog, Inc. (DDOG) shares faced a significant drop in Tuesday's premarket trading.

Why the Stock Dropped: The decline in Datadog's stock can be attributed to the company's revenue forecast falling short of expectations for the rest of the year.

Although Q2 results showed improvements and topped expectations, the Q3 and full-year outlook missed analyst forecasts, causing investor concerns and leading t

i hope this question is allowed here. i'm looking at the income statement for a few companies that mine lithium, and 4/6 of them say they have 0 total revenue, and they've had 0 since 2019-2020. does anyone know what this means? it's messing with a calculation this how-to video mentioned when trying to pick which companies to invest in.

*In a shareholder-friendly move, Illinois Tool Works ITW has hiked its quarterly dividend by 7% to $1.40 per share (annually: $5.60). The move underscores the company’s sound financial health as it utilizes free cash flow to enhance shareholders’ returns.

Wanted to revisit a post I made last year about VRCA. See Post history around 250ish days ago. While it played out nicely earlier this year, anyone who held through approvals got cooked.

Eli Lilly on Tuesday raised its full-year guidance as second-quarter profit jumped 85% from the same period a year ago on strong sales from the pharmaceutical giant's diabetes treatment Mounjaro and other drugs.

The company now expects full-year revenue of between $33.4 billion and $33.9 billion, up from a previous forecast of $31.2 billion to $31.7 billion. Eli Lilly also increased its adjusted earnings guidance to a range of $9.70 to $9.90 per share

While many economic forecasters expected a recession to begin early 2023, what we got instead was a robust continuation of the recovery post-Covid after a sluggish 2022. Last year we saw two quarters of negative GDP, often cited as a simple test for a "technical recession".

However, 2023 was a different story. 1Q real GDP was 2.0% and 2Q was 2.4%. Now the Fed's latest GDPNow estimate for 3Q is at a whopping 4.1% due to increasing

I used to work at company C, and they gave me a lot of stock. And some I bought in the form of Employee Share Purchase Program.
Anyways, while I was there, stock was doing great - I kept holding it like the dumbass that I am. Lo and be hold, stock now is 1/3 of where it used to be.
I do not have trust in this company, nor do I think they will do well in the future.
What do I do with this stock? Should I just sell it all at once so I can sleep bett

So I’ve had a fidelity account for a decade plus. It’s a secondary account i set up and why I can’t remember. Anyways, there’s about 400 shares of apple and some other odds and ends.

My wife and i have our own Roths. I have an LLC that employs my daughter. I set up a roth for her. My question is, should i invest in an etf or two even if me or my wife are already investing in the same one?

Anybody here thought about getting into TCPC? I don’t really see it discussed here.. I recent read it’s Q2 earnings report and it looks promising to succeed in the environment with future rate increases expected. Also, as mentioned in the report, the blackrock name to back it up will allow it the power of that platform to help it. Hasn’t done as great as ARCC or MAIN in recovering but has the future growth to get back to pre-COVID levels

I bought Society Pass (SOPA) not too long after its initial IPO. With an emerging Southeast Asian market, I always expected this would be a long-term play, but at this point it’s virtually worthless stock. Does anyone have any thoughts as how long to recoup my losses and possibly turn a profit? Also, it looks like recent guidance has it undervalued. Anyone have a SOPA position they are hanging on to or increasing shares in?

Hey y’all, I just recently found this ETF and I’m thinking of going in. I’m pretty bearish on the market as a whole and with CPI coming out I think we will sell off. Does anyone hold any $SARK? Let me know. Thanks!

Americans are hanging on to a lot of cash compared to prepandemic. Since 2020, probably the most since 2006 and more spread out. GenX/Millennials are also entering their peak earning years. Absent housing, where does the money go? Or will it sit in accounts?

Housing will not be solved in the couple of years, I think.

Paramount's earnings were rough. They swung to a net loss of $299 million compared to a profit last year. Ouch.

The main culprit? Investing tons of cash into streaming content for Paramount+ while revenue dropped in other areas like movies. Double ouch.

But hey, at least streaming subs are way up to 61 million. And adjusted earnings were still slightly in the black at $80 million.

As for debt, it ticked up to $15.8 billion. Not ideal but

HIMS had a strong Q2. Despite no moat, they may have built a better or at least sexier mousetrap. Strong membership retention/growth and revenue growth. They anticipate 1B+ in revenue by 2025 and currently have a $1B market cap. They have no debt and have a strong runway given their cash equivalents. Anybody hold them or have opposing view?

Pltr earnings were in line with estimates and they raised guidance on unprecedented demand for AI. Growth continues and the company said they will repurchase up to a billion dollars in shares.

Overall this results look about as good as could have been anticipated, now the big question is will there actually be an unprecedented demand for ai or is this a jump on pure hype?

Will I end up with a short position in my portfolio that I will never be able to close?

As far as I understand I should not because if the company ceases to exist, is delisted from the exchange then no shares exist anymore(?). I couldn't be short of something that doesn't exist anymore. I would assume the broker would forcefully close my position (credit the shares*sp from my account). But these are just assumptions I am making, can't find a d

Hello. I know that no one can answer this question for sure, as we don't have a crystall ball. But I have some spare cash which I don't want to keep in the bank account. However I've heard that now is not a good time to invest into stock market. So I'd love to hear some educated (and speculating!) opinions from someone more knowledgable.

Just like the title says. We put almost all of our extra cash into some form of investment and retirement accounts. Some unexpected expenses have popped up. My wife and I have five different retirement accounts: two 403bs, two Roth’s and a taxable account. We are both teachers, so we also get decent pensions.

My grandfather has been trading for decades, using a strategy that involves a lot of data points. The main issue is, he inputs all the data by hand and it really limits how many companies he can keep track of at once.
