The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

I bought 111 shares ($10k) of OKLO at the opener today and up 6.22%...also bought $10.2k of AVAV a couple days ago and up 18%...offsets my losses with TSLA and CVX today.
Nicely done. I was going to buy 10 shares around 75 a share but got busy with other things and missed it.

Would have been helpful, I get to replace the main water line into my house.
 
Lame. If I was closer, I’d give you a hand.
I wish you were. I was telling my wife the other day how nice it would be to have someone that was handy to teach me how to do things.

If it wasn’t winter, I might would have tried it myself but that sounds cold. Plus there’s a gas line right where you would need to dig and I haven’t ran an excavator in 15 or so years. Sometimes it’s just better to pay someone. Old duck hunting buddy is a plumber so I get a little bit of a deal which helps but still not cheap.

Just not a good year for it to happen. Having a kid, out of state elk hunt that was expensive, this and needing to replace my wife’s car…if we make it through Decem…2026, everything’s going to be alright, I know.
 
Not exactly stocks, but a crypto that popped up that I was interested in adding to my portfolio. Everytime something interesting comes up I'll throw in just enough change to hold it on my home page so I can see it actively. Bought 13 cents worth on Dec 29th, closed my app and just looked at it an hour ago. Up 120%. Was up 167% at one point. Lord knows if I would have bought a decent amount, a dip would have ensued.

Moral of the story, stick to stocks. Crypto hurts me constantly 🤣

Dang, I was hoping for some advice.
I was hoping someone would respond to you, too. I haven't seen many actionable stock picks thrown out lately. It's been mostly posts about past performance or safer-than-stocks investments.

I'm going to have to just roll my Rokslide stock gambling account into VOO if we don't get any spicy tips soon.
 
Highly speculative play here… but I just bought some IMSR. Nuclear play that just got a big contract with the DOE. Feel free to roast my pick with your own due diligence!

Gold might be a good compromise between stocks and crypto….

Easy to buy it with the GLD SPDR
 
Over/under on Trump backing out of the ban on institutional housing investors and Black Rock stock jumping as a result?
I would say more likely than not.

Although if you think about it, BlackRock has already gobbled up a bunch of properties. Banning it would stop other PE companies from doing the same, decreasing their competition…so who knows.

While @2531usmc is on the right track, may I suggest buying American Gold Eagles or Buffalos.

If you can't hold it, you don't own it and that's never been truer than with paper gold like $GLD.

Good luck,

I bought CBRL, BX, ANET, MU- all on that dip before Christmas. It looks like this rally is petering out now.

In fact, right now, I'm looking for an inexpensive way of hedging my overweight in Tech stocks. I don't want to put stops on them and they trigger- I don't want to pay the tax.

If I had to buy something right here for LT, it would probably be QTEC or VOO. Goog seems to be holding up. I might buy CBRL under $28, or BX under $150.
