I agree. While I've capitalized on a couple of suggestions in here. The pump and dump stocks that get mentioned in here are a huge turnoff and waste of time imo. [Reply]

I figure that includes anything and everything from stocks, futures, gold, real estate, etc...
It is. However, the initial intent was to be a place to actually discuss and educate people on best practices. It's increasingly drifted toward /r/wallstreetbets, which is bordering on gambling.
Penny stocks aren't exactly core to a strategy that is likely to work out for people long-term. [Reply]

Gotcha.....I think with SIP going on right now some of us are just trying to pass the time. I have my retirement investments in mutual funds and real estate but since C19 and SIP I signed on to an Etrade account and began dabbing in the low cost stocks just more for fun and time consumption than for anything else. I`m not using money I cant afford to lose but am actually doing quite well using some tips here and in a couple other forums I nose around in. Just having fun. [Reply]

They aren’t as financially strong during this as expected. I’ll try to find good summary later. I bought shares at $131 on the recent dip and sold today at $150. I was on the fence but I’m going more cash currently for better buying opportunities coming....Maybe. [Reply]

Yeah, they had a nice rise since March 23 like a few other stocks did, I don't understand how they aren't taking off like crazy in this environment. Seems 150 has been the ceiling for a couple weeks. [Reply]
