The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

I guess I was able to take the risk on msty because im heavily diversified in bitcoin, land with rivers, tesla, mstr, physical silver. You won't find me crying about a loss that was almost break even anyways. I still remember everyone on here crying about tesla and Elon when the price dipped to $260. Nobody was buying and i backed the truck up and bought more. Sure it tanked my previous entry prices, but turns out to still be a great buy. Everything is risky if your a pu**y

Spoken like a true trader.
 
MSTY is like the old saying;

If it seems too good to be true....it usually is.
Sell it now and you can offset against other ST gains you have...so at least it helps tax wise.

The CBRL I keep talking about is probably about its low after bad earnings. I still think it's a Bud Light situation and my bet is it's a good gainer over the next 1 to 2 years...but it probably won't do much for a little while. I'm in a pickle as I did buy a little and have a loss in it that I need to capture...but if I do I can't buy the stock for 30 days.

In my situation, I have a fair amount of ST gains I really need to offset and I only have 1 dog I can sell to compensate. At this point cutting tax is a priority so I'm going to sell the little bit of CBRL.....then in 31 days reevaluate.

My newest buys ANET and MU have been on a tear...as has just about everything I own- a rarity. I usually have something that was in the dumper. I had sold out of BRKB- some I had for awhile- LT gain...and some I owned ST [pretty flat] that just wasn't doing much...but otherwise everything is on a good run- knock on wood.

Anyway, now is the time to reconcile your ST gains for tax purposes.....just remember the 30 day rule.
 
That was always my question about MSTR. I mean, if you got in early, I get it, but I didn't see much of an advantage of investing in a company buying bitcoin when I could just buy Bitcoin or buy a spot ETF from Fidelity, Grayscale, Blackrock etc.

Now, of course, the dividend is crazy good and I can see the attraction there, but thinking in terms of portfolio diversity, I wouldn't invest in MSTY instead of Bitcoin, but rather in supplementation and that combination could quickly take over your portfolio. I'm unsure how you would take a balanced approach to that vs, say, investing in Bitcoin ETFs and SCHD for dividends.
Zero Hedge reposted a MarketEar article concerning MSTR this morning. Worth taking a look at….
 
Presumably, Palantir just landed the highly auspicious task of scanning 5 years worth of social media for any visitor to the US. Probably a contract that = a not insignificant amount of payday.
We are fast becoming a banana republic, surely that won't be abused...smh
