Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2

Not sure why the euphoria Ptak - the US markets have gained about 0,2 percent today

CMS, am I in title to some euphoria now?20.000 Somolians in one day with more to come in the near future.Heeeee

Only if you had the money to place an order, you coward. You are projecting the illusion that you bought nothing. Besides, you are waiting for the recovery from about 20% down. Trusting your instinct, bravery, knowledge, and perfect timing is the game. Plus, you are too ignorant and lack the bravery to play individual stocks successfully. In the bull market, you might stay above the surface in the bear. You are drowning, gulping for air. Basically, your ar*s is grass.

Yeah, the world is your lap dog; it will do as you wish and commit suicide because because it is your desire. I bet on individual deals, even EU countries will not act as one. France tried to take the tuff stance once, but faced with retaliatory tariffs on alcoholic produce, they quickly backed down with the tail between their legs

But I told you my selections

Now I am waiting for yours - post your selections here and stop the ranting because nobody wants to read about Somalis on this thread.

Should be simple for you - 6 stocks, from any stock market, even Mogadishu if you want

Not much point you posting about bravery and ignorance without a few quick suggestions.

Look at Surgutneftegas.

The company's market cap is 1.6 trillion rubles. It has almost 7 trillion Rubles of cash-like assets on its balance, and practically zero debt.

That is, the company is worth about $16 billion dollars, while it has almost $70B of cash sitting in deposits.

Theoretically - if you could buy the company, you would immediately get a 4X+ return.

It's one of the most mysterious companies on the Moscow Exchange. It has been hoarding cash for almost twenty years. Nobody knows anything about who it's shareholders are, beyond its mysterious director Vladimir Bogdanov who only controls a small share.

Rumor is that it is Putin's personal piggy bank. It's as good an explanation as any, for why an oil and gas company would hoard dollars like Smaug the Dragon.

At one point last year - SURGUTNEFTEGAS accounted for 40% of all FX deposits in Russia. There were about $150B of USD-denominated deposits in Russia, and $70B of it was held by SNG.

They never invest this cash into anything. Not even US Treasuries (they can't do it now because they are sanctioned). They could have turned that $70B into $500 billion by now, through simple investment activity, but instead they just collect more and more cash.

So there's a stock tip for you - a company which controls 5 times more cash than its worth.

Another great stock pick if you are bullish Russia - GAZPROM.

Total market cap is $35 billion dollars. Meanwhile, ExxonMobil which is tiny in comparison is worth almost half a trillion dollars.

You can own the largest gas producer in the world, for a 90% discount.

Did I forget to say it pays a 50% dividend? Who cares about the stock price performance, when Gazprom prints money for you? It will continue to print money in dividends, for as long as the Russian government relies on it to fill up its coffers.

Your "selections" are on your broker's statement.

No statement, no "selections". Just PF BS.

They are in post 286, same place they have been for 2 days waiting for Ptak's reponse.

This is a man who must have put down 400.000 bucks to make the 20.000 profit he claims. Obviously he is another member of the PF millionaires club though I am slightly skeptical

Been a good day for my 3 European selections - Bank Pekao 9 % up. swatch and Essilor both 4% up. But the market will be nervous until Golden Cow's next climbdown on China. Anyway these 6 are all doing well for the time being so will look again in May - which gives Ptak, mister half million trade, a chance to list his selections .

Thanks for the tips Bobko, as you can guess I am not very bullish about the MOEX, not least because impossible to move money in or out. But maybe in the future there will be a day when it's safe to invest there.

286 is a PF post, not an account statement.

I already responded to that

No account statement posted online

Unlike Folding Cow, I mean what I write

Why?

Being as ignorant about the markets and trading, you should be locked up in the basement and the keys thrown away.10% of the 200000 equals 20000 thousand profits, and my investments were up 10%, so you pulled 400000 out of your ar*e. Besides, I don't give a flying f*ck if you believe it or not, you were too stupid to recognize
the tip I was providing, when I said BUY, BUY, BUY, you can check my post it was at the very bottom somewhere around 38 000.
As far as your stock selection, your imaginary gains are worthless; those gains are recovery from more significant loss. For instance, if your swatch lost 20% of the value and regained 4%, you would be 16% in the hole. Please don't bother me with nonsense; you are not worth my time Besides, I really don't care what you think, and I don't need tips from you

That's why scumbags like him never post their accounts statements. It's legal and safe if personal data is blacked out.

When asked why, they can't be found anywhere...

But this is a contest that started 2 days ago, not in January

April 9th is when I made my selections in post 286. Also the same day you claim to have thrown 200k bucks on the table

So i am still waiting for your selections - and something tells me it will be a long wait for something simple, 6 stocks from any index

Even dear Bobko is beating you - Gazprom up half a percent this morning

Tell ya what, Novi.

Go to your local coffee shop and buy a coffee for 5 bucks. Oh, no! Now you have a $5 trade deficit with the coffee shop - this is unacceptable. You have no other option but to fight this injustice, Trump-style. Impose a 50% tariff on them.

When you go there next time, your coffee will be $7.50. 5D chess.

*rolls eyes*

You think it's retarded? Well, it's even more retarded when you're a country that can print dollars and pay for coffee and everything with them (the inflation is spread all over the world, because dollar is the main reserve currency of the world). Add to this all the insider trading (billionaires making money while average joes losing money in their retirement funds) as well as the worldwide loss of credibility of the USA as an ally and you will see that your president is not only a caveman but also a crook who hurts his own people the most. But, by all means, knock yourself out and continue worshipping the orange-skinned 5D chess player.

Our problem is 36-3-1 trillion bucks.

What would you do as president? If you are clueless, STFU and let adults handle adult matters.


So what's stopping you from posting your account statement from Jan till now, for example?

I already told you in #296.


You are being rude for no reason. I'm just explaining things to you in very simple terms. Trump is like Polish generals in 1939 - they wanted to win modern war with cavalry, Trump wants to win in modern globalised economy with 19th, early-20th century methods.


Your problem is that you elected a caveman for a president.

What contest? You are the only contestant ? Like ar*e kicking contest, with you as one leged contestant

Is that an order? As for suggestions, never play with the straight razor, and limit yourself to the confines of your own sandbox.

BS.

I asked what you would do as president:



Another dose of meaningless crap...

What would you do as president. Today...

As I said...One simple question and it's over...

TDS is a terrible mental disorder...It makes one say meaningless word salad and, at the same time, feel like a genius...See Lyzko, Patient #127.

And I told you in #296:

Put an irrevocable government ban on all budget deficits. Don't spend more than you earn. Go back to good old American thrift and curb the exorbitant consumerism. Stop spending more than you earn, which means not taking on any more government debt. Cut all you can cut, save as much as you can. Tighten your belt - that's what you do in times of crisis and not impose tariffs on the entire world (which will only result in driving up prices for American consumers).

The problem is Trump won't do it, he won't go back to honest common sense economy. He's a crook worried more about giving insider trading tips to his billionaire friends than about average Americans. Horrible president and a horrible person.

The only positive thing I can see in the current administration is cutting the government administration cost (although I'm not sure if they're cutting in the right places). Apart from that they're all over the place.

One more time...


Since you are stupid...A reminder...Congress decides how much to spend. President spends what he is allowed to spend.

If you respond with another moronic advice, this conversation will be over.

Yes, moron, you are the only one who knows where waste is. Everybody else here is bouncing off the walls in a dark windowless room.

That was the last straw. We are done. You are worse than a retarded kid with Down...

It's Lent, so I'm being nice to people and I won't respond the way I should.


Republicans have majority in Congress, don't they? So why shouldn't they follow their own president's advice and do all he asks them?

You have no idea how economy works, you fall for stupid populist slogans, and you treat LGBT the way Crow treats Vatican. Funny and sad at the same time.

I asked what you would do as president.

OK, have it your way - let's assume that Congress doesn't listen to me and they decide everything connected with spending, saving, economic policies etc. on their own.

So here's what I would do...

I would play golf or have fun with female interns and cigars. Or both.

This way I wouldn't do any damage to the perfect system of economic violence that the USA managed to achieve at great cost, using all its military might, bribery and diplomatic cunning. This system also benefits all our allies in Europe (including Poland). Sure, the third-worlders would keep suffering but that wouldn't worry us too much, now would it?

And here's what I wouldn't do...

I wouldn't impose tariffs on the entire world, driving up prices of everything for my beloved Americans. I wouldn't give insider trading tips to my billionaire friends whilst watching average Joe's retirement fund go down the drain. In other words, I wouldn't step on a rake and claim that it's 5D chess.

I didn't ask what you would not do.

I asked:

I asked what you would do as president.

Asking Congress is not "doing". Executive orders are "doing". Deporting foreign scum is "doing". Killing terrorists is "doing". Got it, moron?

So:

What you would do as president to prevent the US from adding to the problem of 36-3-1 trillion bucks?

And I told you above, you perfect idiot. :)


... and I even explained why :)

Now, go away - you bore me. *yaaaaaaaaawn*

I asked what you would do as president.

You must be sure about it, almost as sure as CMS is about investing strategies. How about all other consumers?

You must possess a lot of insider trading information. Hurry and share it with CMS so both of you can rapidly descend into the depths of bankruptcy.
