What Is Cheap Right Now? Investment Wise...

[NightShade]

I bought SiriusXM when it was around .70 cents per share and bought AMD when it was around 2.00 per share. Turned around and sold everything off already but trippled my money. AMD right now is set to eat Intel's breakfast as their EPYC cpu's are going to gouge into Intel's server market. They also make some money from the GPU market as pretty much ALL of the gaming systems (xbox, Playstation, Nintendo) use AMD gpu's and have for a few years now. The one thing AMD needs to do is get a GPU that is cheap and also kicks the crap out of Nvidia at which point the stock will easily hit 60 per share if not more. I honestly wish I had gotten some Nvidia stock when it was down around 14 per share now that it's running near 270. However when AMD does shoot up Nvidia stock will drop by twice as much as what AMD climbs by so watch for that. Nvidia pretty much only has their GPU based stuff so when they have a faster product they stay ahead but AMD is being undervalued quite a bit right now especially due to Intel playing games https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-28-core-cpu-5ghz,37244.html AMD DOES have a 32 core cpu designed for desktop systems that is real they demoed at the same event but Intel got the big groups on something they don't even have in the works and would cost as much as a used car for the cpu alone.

I would still buy Sirius XM at this point as well. It has made steady climbs and at it's high point before the last recession it was near 40 bucks a share and at the current 7 to 8 it's not bad. Most of their business is cars and almost all new vehicles have radio's equipped with their tech. That says to me the more cars that are being sold the more money they are going to make in the long run even if only 20 percent keep a subscription.

Im pretty much just in energy and biotech. so very aggressive at this point and agree hedging with some of the big safe companies is probably a good idea...and would be the same advice given by professional traders. my hang up on that though is that companies like apple and amazon are retarded high right now, the highest in their history. The big question is how much higher will they go? Buying in right now would literally be "buying high" but looking at the charts show todays high turn into tomorrows low as they continue to break through ceilings. basically im saying I don't know.

Some "tariff" stocks are getting depressed.... wouldn't say cheap but definitely taking a hit. Apple is at a P/E of 17 so yeah people think it's expensive, but it's not.

I am not well set at all, just well interested...which is the opposite of most people who hate talking about money.

To put it all out there, i have zero debt and my total net worth is somewhere around $500k...which is nothing by todays standards. I am only 32 years old and have a lot to learn...the purpose of this thread is just that, I want to learn more.

If your that young and your net worth is half a million I would say you are doing great for yourself. I am several years older than you and ain’t worth near that. And my wife and I have great jobs. Or course I don’t care as long as I can make ends meet and be happy that’s all I care about. We invest a good amount into our retirement so hopefully if we are still around we will be set. Who knows if SS will still be there.

thank you man. Im not looking for praise by posting that just letting folks know where I stand. I have a long way to go but think I have set myself up well to get to where I'd like to be.

How may I ask is this money distributed?

I didn't mean I have set myself up with investments right now to get to where I want to be, thats the part where i have a long way to go and much to learn. What I meant with the above statement is I have a decent amount saved up with no debt which I would consider a good foundation to grow upon...I do wish I would have built some credit in the process but will start working to correct that.

I agree with JD8 on Apple and home depot.10 or 12 years ago I bought HD for $35.00 a share.It didn't hardly move for 2 or 3 years.Now its at $200.00 per share.

I didn’t think that at all. I am happy to see you doing so well at your age. That’s great! Too bad more couldn’t be like that.

Did anybody catch this morning that General Electric is being taken off of the Dow Jones? GE was one of the stocks on which the Dow was created more than a century ago.

How the mighty have fallen.

Ive been so close to going in on GE a few times during their descent...so glad I didn't as everyone who has felt they were picking the bottom is disappointed pretty much daily lol. It was replaced on the Dow by walgreens just to add to your statement.
