Trading - Spread Betting - Stocks - Shares

[dub]

well if a company posts a 10% profit rise for that quarter, it does make sense that the share price reflects that with a 10% increase right?

how they've gotten to such a price beforehand however, is another thing

[Captain Planet]

But if the share price reflects a company earning 100 billion instead of 10 billion whoch it is actually earning for example, that 10% sp rise is not equivalent to the 10% rise in profits.

That is similar to what we are witnessing so it is harder to make those kind of comparisons.

I agree it's hardly a great investment but better return over the last yr than keepin it in the bank

[Guest 90210]

yahoo in the last year has gone up tenfold 

[Benicio del Toney]

Buy partial shares, you gotta be looking at investing in shares for atleast 5 years, 1 of the best investments imo.

 

1 company I was reading about you woulda been up over 3000% if you had invested in 1993.

Tesla up 635% in the last year.

[Benicio del Toney]

If you had put £10,000 in Jan 1st you woulda made nearly £7k already this year.

[Horatio Caine]

yeah, tesla is a nice company,thats crazy thooo!! 7k already

[Gordon Gekko]

A buyout of Tesla could be on the way too

yo, how come I'm reading Google's stock price is $555, looking at historical prices being around the same (no more than 50+) - yet I recall news stories of prices hitting $1000 (around this time last year)

 

what exactly is happening here?

 

 

edit: ohh they split the stock into GOOG and GOOGL (Class C and A), didn't know that sort of thing effected historical values

Fam in case you hadn't noticed I've posted in this thread all day

I got time to talk about this all day

it saved my life.

Happy easter to you too.

How's the coding going for you now Carlos?

[Mr. Martinez]

Very well.

I read back this thread earlier this year and whilst everything I said I still stand by, I do think I was a bit naive in thinking everyone could become a developer. You really need to have a passion for it first and foremost.

But if you like it. You can succeed in this industry one way or another. Regardless of how smart you are. How old you are. What your background is. Etc. Etc.

To elaborate. There are levels to this as with anything else.

Just cos you're not Lionel messi doesn't mean you can't make 2 bags a week playing for Scunthorpe United.

My bro got me involved in some stock a few years back. Never really monitored it post signing up. Wonder what it's worth now.

[Mr. Martinez]

Just don't end up like this guy..

A trader started a GoFundMe page to pay back $100,000 to E-Trade after a disastrous short

A day trader in Arizona has started a GoFundMe page asking fellow traders to help him pay off a $100,000 debt to E-Trade after a disastrous short bet on a biotech stock.

Joe Campbell, a 32-year-old small-business owner from Gilbert, Arizona, created the page after a huge loss on KaloBios Pharmaceuticals.

Yeah, I've got a 17 stock portfolio I've had since end of August, up nearly 1.5k

How much your bro put on that stock?

You should check it.

Amazon my best stock, up over 40% in 3 months.

Martinez, shorting is a madness, basically gambling, wouldn't get involved in that.

You don't need a passion for it. I don't and I'm one of the best mobile app devs most people I've met have met (and I've worked on apps that have hit the top of several charts and been featured on app stores).

You just need the capacity for it and a bit of drive (which I get from the fact that I know it pays me well).

Many people don't have the capacity for it.

There are many sh*t devs out there getting paid though.
