Bamboo is quite easier to understand and navigate.
Chaka is confusing for me but they offer Nigerian stocks too (unlike bamboo that focuses just on US market).

THE POOR, THE RICH AND THE BANK!!

1. A bank is a broker between the poor and the rich.

2. The commonplace where the two meet is in a bank.

3. The poor bring money in the form of savings.

4. The rich take it, through borrowing.

5. A poor person saves money because they have more money than their thinking capacity.

6. They keep the money in the bank so they can go and think of what to do with the money they have saved.

7. On the other side, rich people come to pick that money, through borrowing, because they have more ideas than the money they have.

8. On a practical side, please who can show me one billionaire who got rich through saving.

9. I will show you a million Africans who have money saved in the banks and are still renting the houses that the Millionaires and billionaires build through the poor people savings which the rich borrowed from a bank.

10. I have now realized that the best savings and interests are acquired through investments and not savings.

11. It will surprise you that the only money that the rich allow in their account is the minimum balance to keep it alive.
Every cash they have is seen on one investment or another.

12. Take a risk in your life, if you fail you will learn, and if you succeed you will be a good example to others.

13. The only shame you must avoid is to have shame.

14. You must know that all Millionaires and Billionaires you see today were once starters.

Decide today to remove that money from your account and look for an investment to reap twice in due course

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
Nobody will force you

OakPearl:
Virgin Galactic (SPCE) receiving pre-market attention.
May gain up to 15% or more today because they signed a deal with NASA to develop a recruitment and training program for private astronauts seeking to visit the International Space Station.

How far this news pushes the stock we can't tell but if it repeats its behaviour between October 2019 and Jan/Feb 2020, SPCE will make some people some near term bucks.




YerYer:


Your SPCE call made me some money before. Lemme follow this stock again, it's been bouncing between $15 and $20 for some time now

Looks like the deed is about to begin.
Now $18.95 gaining $2.16 already today.
Eyes on the ball.

Thanks, I think this helps a lot. I saw an advise that trading 212 is good because it does not attract commission. I will go with your advise/

Not sure about trading 212. Never used it
Re: Us Stocks Pick Alert by Skymoore1004: 4:07pm On Jul 09, 2020
I prefer bamboo because they have good customer service & their interface is very easy to understand for a layman. Also you can change your portfolio to naira if you wish. I like seeing my money in naira biko grin. Lastly, their commission is only 1.5% which is reasonable for me. Their deposit takes only 1 business day and sometimes even earlier. They have a telegram group for newbies too.

Maybe someone that uses others can chip in too but my take is bamboo

Avoid SQQQ when there is no confirmed and overwhelming bad news that will swing the market to negative territory for atleast four days.

good morning house
I happened to come across this thread after following the treasury bill thread judiciously and investing in same.
Unfortunately things have gone south with the treasury bills rates and I am looking at dabbling into other investments
I have downloaded the Trove app based on some of the recommendations here and I seem to be comfortable with it. Having been giving the clearance too start investing by the trove team, I will like to seek some of your opinions
My immediate outlook is to invest in long term US stocks that pays good dividends. the idea is to buy the stocks in piecemeal and grow them over the years. Being new to all this I will like to pick your brains which stocks you all will recommend to buy. I will be more interested in the quarterly?/yearly dividends such stock will return
thanks in advance

Hi Koonbey
thanks for your quick response, What you listed are the top notch, crème de la crème , us stocks to own and die for grin
let me be a little clearer with my proposal;
say you have an initial outlay of 500K- 1M naira to invest in US stocks, Amazon alone with a going rate of $3,200 will not cut it as it is way over the budgeted investment
We will get there someday. but for now looking at starting small to grow big

Thanks for the feedback

You're welcome. On the scale of the investments, the good thing is that the investment platforms today support fractional shares so you can divide whatever amount you have between the shares you want to buy. All you have to do is put in the amount and the exact percentage of a share will be calculated.

It depends on what you want.
To Warren Buffet, it is, because he needs a safe investment he can understand to swallow up the loads of cash under his management.
He is one of the most patient investors and could have projected 5,10 or even 20 years ahead for the real rewards of this investment.

After the expected rush (that didn't really happen) following the announcement that he had invested, the stock has not gained too much and that doesn't bother him really.
Can you wait like him?

With its level of cash reserve, I don't know what is keeping it @ sub $50.

As in. With all the troubles Facebook is facing, Twitter and snapchat should be benefiting and gaining more ads revenue. I think it just needs a few analyst upgrades to boost the price.

I want to hop on too, it was so oversold. I was actually in it but bought a bit high, na stop loss save my portfolio grin I might just buy long calls. Heard they’re bidding for a $6 billion usps contract this month

Looks like I got in late, but I only have a small position In it. If they win a $6billion contract, that will be 4 X their market cap, I can't even imagine what that would do to the stock price!

Cc: yeryer, oakpearl, seyisanya, arduino

I've been in and out of this name for some time I've always made money from it. I bought it when it was $73 because I knew they would benefit from a push for contactless payments during the pandemic, but I chickened out and sold at $81 when an analyst downgraded the stock. I know better to take analyst recommendations with a grain of salt but I was compelled to sell it because several times in Square's (SQ) history, whenever you think it will propel towards the $100 range, it sells off. So I thought that will be the case this time around but I was wrong.

I still like the stock but it has run up too fast, maybe wait for a pull back for a better entry point.
