Thank God spambot banned me since yesterday.

We are suffering a crisis of confidence. I hope Frank can get it together. He should have parked bus today instead of trying to press them given the lack of confidence in the team. That's what you do when your back is against the wall but he naively left us open.

I thought Silva was at fault for the first two goals and Kante for the third.

Leyqute:
I think when Biden assumes power around January and things start looking stable economically and health wise all over the world the price may drop.

How do you day trade? Do you use any technical indicator or you do a fundamental analysis ? Cos that shiite is freaking unpredictable.

I generally stay away from trading and haven't traded for 9 years but I fit reason am for big news days or for crypto. I dey reason am with the way this Bitcoin surge dey vex me. If I do trade, it will be a swing trade based on momentum. I would set up a straddle (both ways) that capitalises on momentum and volatility both long and short eg if it rises 10%, clock me in till it reaches 15% rise, simultaneously if it drops 10%, clock me in till 15% drop. I'll study the volatility history before setting these entry prices and both act as stop loss against each other. Na to find exchange that won't hammer you on slippage be the main issue, more so than your strategy. Na why I just prefer to buy and hold a highly volatile asset like Bitcoin with strong bullish sentiment, but I fit reason trading with the way I dey vex.

Another strategy is to invest in firms (e.g tech, healthcare, clean energy, retailers and wholesalers) that you believe will exceed market expectations for 2020 FY numbers. Most of them will release earnings reports in February and March, you can look to get in now and exit a few days after they release their FY 20 numbers. Market typically prices in expected performances 4-6 weeks before earnings release dates, reason I am suggesting you get in now.

Q4 Earnings calendar will run from mid-Jan to mid-Feb. Most of the techs will be reporting start of Feb. We should already have a clue from Q1-Q3 trading reports. Do you have some names? Wouldn't a better strategy be trading these stocks from 4th Jan?

Right now, my hard earned cash is in Eurobonds of some countries that can give me between 6-10% USD returns per annum. Also, there are mutual funds linked to those bonds such that when yields drop, prices of the bonds and the mutual funds go up. I can’t do any stock market or speculative investing right now, except the stocks I have been holding since 2-3 years ago.

U.S just released another bailout funds early this week, we would see another cruise ride by the stock market. Real estate assets are also overpriced, except maybe commercial real estate that is affected by Covid-19. Liquidity is just too much in the system right now.

This is a very good time for traders. Shey I for resume trading of instruments right now, but I don’t think I can sacrifice steady income for roller coaster income.

For anyone still interested in stocks investing right now, target clean/renewable energy stocks.

If the bailouts continue, excess cash will continue to find its way to Bitcoin. How many months more of this bubble do you think we have, let boys see if they can do a quick flip. I am thinking they will continue to bailout till pandemic quiet down in summer.

nihilistjnr:
Don't get it twisted, I'm not in any way blaming you.
.what you said was logical plus I did my research and came to the conclusion that some of the big boys were pumping up the thing for a monumental dump later.

No be me hedgefund manager go use satisfy his investors.

But still e pain me die.

How you see stock market right now? There's a lot of wailing and gnashing in my family group chat. My papa dey cry the other day say all him guys buy Tesla and he flopped.

Man, value investing is out the window so I can't think of entering stockmarket. If you have a pension, you're in the stockmarket anyway so no need to double down by routing personal funds there. 10 years ago you value companies at a ratio to their fundamentals, nowadays any company will be valued high with little reference to their fundamentals (Net Asset Value, price-to-book ratio, price-to-earnings ratio, ROE, Gearing ratios etc) so there's a big bubble.

For example one quick valuation method we use to value non-listed companies is using the higher of their Assets-Liabilities or 7 times their yearly operating profit. For listed companies, we look at the average price-to-earnings ratio to judge if companies are being overvalued. The historic price-to-earnings ratio of all the companies in the S&P500 is around 19, but right now in 2020, the average P-E ratio in S&P is 38 which indicates share values are too high.

The question is whether Govt has the chutzpah to allow the markets correct themselves or will continue to pump in more liquidity to keep the bubble going. Na siddon look I dey on a personal level, but with the comfort of knowing that if the bubble continues indefinitely, I'm also invested in the market via pension fund.

Godx:
But we told you and greatihex back then that bitcoin could go up. As at today it's $29k

They've been saying it will hit $100k since 2017. Just because it went up doesn't mean they were right. Eventually some people will get burned real bad. Na Govt bailouts dey fuel all these increases both in stockmarket and Bitcoin cos there's too much cash in the system chasing too little value. A lot of crap is being overvalued at the moment, man just needs to know the right times to get in and out without getting burned in the long run. I would rather wait till it drop, and if it never drops, I haven't lost anything, than enter at a price that could burn me later

nihilistjnr:
Guy remember I ask you this summer about bitcoin. You and leyqute.

Omo as I see news that the thing don reach 28k na cry I wan cry. I woulda trebled my money if I had entered at 9k sef.

The thing had been floating between 4 and 10 for the last 3 years. Only a reckless person will give someone advice to enter at 9. Just like the stock market, there's excess liquidity from Govts pumping bailout upon bailout since 2008. Institutions don't know what to do with this cash and even they have already overpriced stockmarket way beyond the value of the stocks, excess cash na him dem done dey put toward bitcoin. This whole excess liquidity relies on continuous Govt bailouts and I'm not even sure now that Biden will off the tap if not Trump will troll him. Value investing has been out the window for the last 5 years. At some point, stockmarket must correct itself and Bïtcoin will follow, I just don't know if that will happen anytime soon cos na politics dey fuel this bubble, not economics.

sod09:
Don't wait bro, just put any money you currently not using at the moment

There is nothing like unencumbered cash. No be few hundred dollars I dey chase. I want something life improving which will require putting major capital at risk, which I judiciously squirrelled away these last few months to ride out any potential job loss during this pandemic. At the current price the risk is too much. I no fit think am till the price drop back toward the 20k mark.

ThisisIkemefuna:
Long time ibeme, rap battle god of NL. Your siggy is so crack, I literally fell on the floor laughing.

Quick question sir, what platform do you recommend that one use for crypto? I checked binance reviews on play store and they weren't pretty at all. Would you say your experience with binance has been smooth so far? Season's greetings.

I only use Bïnance to check prices and charts. I've never transacted on it, na Cõinbase wey I do transactions. Na frustration and anger make me want enter Bïnance to do daytrading as I can't make crazy returns by buying and holding at this price point against without putting large capital at risk

DeadPresidents:
I pulled out of Ethereum at $616. Almost immediately, the bastard started rising stratospherically.

Still waiting for support zone to fall within the $620 range but maybe I have to make peace with the fact that the new support zone is within $700.

Exiting Ethëreum at 616 is never a bad thing. You would have taken some good profit there. Taking profit is never bad.

Unlimited22:
Lol. Na your escapades for American politics thread dey cause all these bans?

No, I quote pesin here on Bïtcoin na him spambot ban me

PDPGuy:
I’m predicting bitcoin to hit $40k by the end of the first quarter of next year. I have no hope of getting into bitcoin, but I’m always happy when it rises because my crypto-related stocks (MARA, Dogecoin) also rise.

There must surely be a correction early January before it moves forward again. From 30k to 40k is a 33% growth which won't do it for me. It must come back to like 22k first before I venture it

See what I mean by unlucky draws.

This gameweek, I had the 4th highest score but just happened to be playing the guy with the highest score. SMH

Melvyn11:
I gave them 7/10 because I don't think Ziyech is actually a 10 or will be effective in that role.

With Ndidi and Partey behind he will have plenty freedom.

I will replace Onana with Mendy

LordReed:
Oh snap!

“You gained international infamy earlier this month as Rudy Giuliani’s so-called ‘star witness’ who could supposedly corroborate outlandish accusations that Dominion has somehow rigged or otherwise improperly influenced the outcome of the Nov. 2020 U.S. presidential election,” attorneys Thomas Clare and Megan Meier wrote. “Without a shred of corroborating evidence, you have claimed that you witnessed several different versions of voter fraud—ranging from one story involving a van, to other accusations that votes were counted multiple times. You published these statements even though you knew all along that your attacks on Dominion have no basis in reality.”

lol. So the stripper was just a bloody cleaner forming IT contractor

liver123:
yes sir

I'll contact you separately via DM, meanwhile follow abragr8 recommendations and try to reach him via DM function after submitting your CV as he recommended

Merry Christmas to all blues.

liver123:
50k sir

Per year?

liver123:
Please pardon my grammatical blunders. I have stayed in abuja since 2018 after my service and I have done some petty work work as a civil engineering graduate which doesn't measure up for survival and up till date I have not gotten a decent job.

This year has been very tough for me as I struggle to even feed. My rent in abuja will expire February and I don't have a job.

Now am in lokoja to visit my elder brother for xmass and he is in support that I should stay back in lokoja since I don't have a job in abuja and my rent will soon expire. Am totally confused now on whether to stay back or go back to abuja as this lokoja town is too dry and I don't even know how I can get a job here.

How much is your rent in Abuja?

Amoto94:
Honestly his thesis is rich in content and you shouldn't fault BlueAngel for saying what she said but as you've previously written on this thread coaching in football requires more of man management than having beautiful ideas. Players won't play for you if you don't respect them and massage their egos, they will rubbish your brilliant ideas and make you look clueless.

Football is not rocket science. It's hardly equivalent to splitting an atom or even SSCE Mathematics. All that dissertation stuff is just hot fluff. There are many analysts within clubs and even journalists on sites like The Athletic that have the same level of knowledge. Every manager that wants to follow Klopp, Pep or Mourinho has their template, same way they all followed Bielsa. The wahala is in getting good players, keeping them motivated and having power within the club so wayward players can be kept in line.

sanpipita:
Hot air, he is just trying to get his base fired up, basilico and others will soon come and be dropping hot takes here

Don't underestimate his powers of stüpidity

LordReed:
I read it and I am not seeing any language in there that says the VP has the power to reject the electors the States have sent.

He is asking VP to reject State electors and accept a ragtag of GOP votes from legislatures not even in session

Don the Con is planning something massively egregious, such as appointing Sidney Powell as special counsel to investigate the election. I thought it was a joke when I first read it. He is playing with impeachment in his final days. How far can a Mafia President usurp democracy? We may find out in the next 3 weeks.

Bluebyrd:
Fake news, very ridiculous fake news.

Back to this again. You are a big fool.

Trump pressuring Mitch Mcconnell is fake news according to you, yet the Mafia President is now pressuring his VP on Twitter to break with the constitution and reject electors on Jan 6th.

What sort of Govt does he run that he he will threaten his VP on Twitter?

SyIvalord:
You just shot yourself in the foot with this statement. How did you know that the setbacks Manchester United faced last season will resurface? Were you not assuming?

You can't lazily assume I mocked Klopp on a forum where you can easily search my name and Klopps name to find out if true. Making assumption on easily verifiable past events is just laziness of thought and deed.

Now the future is not assumption but prophecy. I prophesied and started celebrating Manures UCL exit a week in advance so already failure is etched on Ole this season. I am also prophesying that this is just Manures usual 3 months good form.

SyIvalord:
I guess you said the same thing about Klopp in his first two seasons with Liverpool. We will revisit this your comment at the end of the season.

How can you guess what you're not sure of. As my old boss used to say, Assumption is the mother of all fückups.

afrodoc2:
Forget that thing. The football we played under JM was consistently diabolical. 3 months of good football under Amaka is more enjoyable than all the good football we played under Mourinho put together.

Amaka done turn to Odogwu within 2 weeks. Just two weeks ago, they were looking for you in barbershop.

Lana1:
This wont be like one of those times. This run go reach end of season

It's possible.

SyIvalord:
So someone will watch the kind of football we played today(especially in the first half), and watch the kind of football Tottenham played against stoke, and still want Mourinho to be his coach rather than Ole?


It’s okay.

No be today nyash dey back. Every season Ole will put together 3 months of this kind of form but in the end things will be back to square one

BlueMann:
Inter and AC Milan now holding sizeable advantages over Juve.

Still early but this is looking like the season the Old Lady will finally be dethroned.

I'm all for it.

I hope BlueAngel444 is OK. I haven't seen her around for a while.

This reminds me of how she was pointing us toward high praise of Pirlos UEFA Licence thesis where they were saying it's the best dissertation ever written in UEFA Pro licence history
