Anyone who buys after today will not benefit from the split.

Maybe it's just me, I don't feel comfortable when a company stocks keep rising and rising with no pul back, it's a good though but it doesn't just feel right, I feel something wrong will soon happen and from history, we all know anything can happen.

I'm referring to apple and Tesla. I own apple stock tho.

Nothing bad will happen, from Apple history we have seen several splits.

However, for Tesla, I believe those in know when to press the button, smiley

So you mean that with the new offering and new deal below this stock is stay away for now right?

Price now 1.33 pre-market





Gevo to raise $50M in direct offering

Gevo (NASDAQ:GEVO) inks agreements with institutional investors for the sale of 38,461,545 common shares at a purchase price of $1.30/share in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market, for expected gross proceeds of ~$50M.

Net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Closing date is August 25.

GEVO gained 64.5% in yesterday's morning session after announcing the Trafigura deal. The agreement will lift the combined revenues from its long-term contracts to more than $1.5B.

I actually expected it to have a bounce as the volume was massive; it traded almost a billion shares yesterday. What the whole NSE can trade in weeks lol. I mistimed the bounce and got in above $1.50, I set my stop loss at $1.4 and it hit it so I got out with a loss... I’m a trader. It’s actually holding up well currently and I expect a run later today tho I won’t be in it

Your feeling as expressed here may not be wrong.
But beyond market capitalisation which may be a subject of overvaluatuon due to herd mentality, I can tell you that Apple is on a strong fundamental; even stronger than Tesla I dare say.

Just listen to a few of Warren Buffet's thoughts on Apple:

"I don't think of Apple as a stock. I think of it as our third business,"

Warren Buffett told CNBC that Berkshire Hathaway's "third-largest business," after its insurance and railroad interests, is its stake in Apple.

"It's probably the best business I know in the world. And that is a bigger commitment that we have in any business except insurance and the railroad".

As of late last year, Berkshire owned more than 245 million shares of Apple, worth nearly $72 billion!

Thank you @Oakpearl for pointing us to OSTK. I had intended to hold for the long haul, but i fell my hand last week when the price started to fall but i must confess i had a good run. I entered at $14 and got out at $89. Waiting for a pull back so i can enter again. It is actually a stock to own.


Very happy for you bro.
Means we bought about the same time I first raised the "alarm".
Imagine buying 1,000 shares at $14,000 (N6,580,000) then; and selling at the $89 you sold $89,000 (N41,830,000) never mind that it's now hovering around $124/share now which could have been worth $124,000 (N58,280,000)!

This tread is a divine mandate, and it will make many rich. Seriously!!!

FOMOed back into Overstock (OSTK). Wayfair (W) another online retailer of home goods has a market cap of over $31B while Overstock is just $5.3B. As we all know, many people are using this period to refurnish their homes hence the reason why online home goods retailers like Wayfair (W) and William Sonoma (WSM) have been on a tear. If you've been holding this stock since Oakpearl recommended it, congrats, I got out at $90. Plan to dollar cost average my position if it drops to $90.

All we need is more bites of patience for this one.
Investor sentiment for it is great with the fundamental structures they have been putting in place. As I no fit close eye buy Amazon for $3,000 na, I don sidon tight for this one.
Na my own Amazon be this. grin

The recent jump to $127 was due to latest analysts' recommendation that it should be selling at a target price of $140/share.

Not a buy or sell recommendation.

You guys cannot afford to go to sleep and abandon the ship oooo. embarassed

It may interest you all to know that I have paid services of Motleyfool, Marketbeat, & Zacks but since I started reading commentaries and recommendations of the bosses/active players here, I am over 58.89% better off.

Your daily / weekly / or spontaneous post on stocks direction are well appreciated. I am always glue to the thread.

Kindly do not be silent.

Wishing us all the best...

We are grateful and happy for your progress thus far.

What's your take on my dividend watchlist...

AGNC Invest 10.27%
Armour Residential 7.54% (I will be cautious with this one due to poor liquidity as the daily volume is too low and could have you trapped when you need to jump out)
Gladstone capital 6.08%. Same liquidity issues as above.
Horizon Finance - Ticker symbol required to give the accurate company data.
Prospect Capital - Ticker symbol required as there are various prospect capitals listed on the exchange.
Oxford lane capital - Ticker required as above.
Stella Capital Investment - Can't find. Check for correct name.
Kimco - 9.8%


I want to invest in 2 or 3. One residential and one financial services for dividend.

Please find my response in bold beside each stock.
One major safety criteria for trading and investing in US stocks is to be sure the stock you are buying is not illiquid.
The range should be a minimum daily trading quantity of 200,000 to 400,000 shares.
Anything below the above threshold may put you in danger of being trapped in a stock should there be a massive bailout by investors.

Having said that, ANGC and Kimco, both with reasonably high dividend yields as indicated, are my recommendations on your list.

@4Play @Oakpearl Would $JETS be a good buy for the long term?

If you mean the JETS ETF, I would say yes it is a good buy as long as it's a long term investment.

Having hit its 52-week high of around $32 in January before the covid induced crash in March which sent it to its 52-week low of $11 in March, it currently trades at around $16.

$SDIV, $SRET

$SDIV - Current dividend yield based on today's price is a handsome 11.06%.
But I am uncomfortable with its 10-day volume of 390,000 shares.
&SRET - Current dividend yield is 8.08%.

Current stocks to buy now for capital appreciation:
BRKS - $50
HEAR - $18.8
KGC - $8.9

These stocks have reported double digit growth above 20% on both sales and earnings.
They look oversold on chart right now.

Thanks... but I am not sure I will jump in for now because the stock is still on downward motion.

But can you recommend any other trading stock you are watching or entering for now?

Oh yeah, those stocks are bad companies, they’re just for trading and taking profits
For next week I’ll be watching fastly for long term, they fell largely due to the Tik too issue and I believe they’ll be a correction... bosses @oakpearl @yeryer please your thought on this?

Not trying to be a downer... but stocks CAN go down as well as up.

My experience with POWI. They did a 2:1 this week. I entered at #117 before the split. Now, after the split price is at $56. Bottom line, even with the additional double shares, I am still down.
Moral of the story, Apple might not be as sweet as it sounds.
