Anyone investing heavily this year??

How much money did you lose/gain this past week?


  • Total voters
    30
  • Poll closed .
What companies do you think have good dividends that we can start loading up on?

Depends on how much you want to pay and your overall strategy (being paid monthly, quarterly, etc.) but I'd start with any of the "dividend aristocrats" Look that up. It will bring up the ones with the most consistent and better paying dividends who haven't paused or cut their dividends in 20+ years. With Rona still out here I have been focusing on healthcare dividends so you have $ABBV which has a 5% dividend yield and $WBA which pays out around 4%-5%. You could also decide to go towards REITS. With so many stores and malls closed or not really near capacity plays like $FRT or $O are at good deals for now since they are the landlords. All of those I mentioned would be in your dividend aristocrats list. Check the link below for others.


Take a look at the companies held in VYM and VIG too.

 
5,000 shares at .90 on yesterday.......sold at 1.11 this morning.
easy 1k flip

@Coldchi I don't know how you do the penny stocks man. Got in on $NSPR yesterday at around 0.60c and bought about 1,500 shares. My ass got scared premarket this morning and sold it around 0.70c. Lol! Now looking at it run and currently at 0.81

I'm fine to take the small profit. But those penny stocks are new territory for me.

chart reading man. its easy for me to spot the setups. harder to explain it to people that dont give a shit about charts, they just want to know the play.
like right now, im about to take a larger position in OCGN. its in positive entry territory, MACD about to cross after 3 days of consolidation. Above 200ema.
time to run up a check.
 
What is the opinion on SINT? I bought 500 shares at $2.24. They are working on masks that contain silicone nitride powder. Supposedly silicone nitride neutralizes aerosolized COVID-19. Seem like this could potentially be big and a long term hold if proven to be as effective as the test states.
 
Question to you BGOL Wall street Oracles... TAXES!

What is your standard process to account for taxes on your earnings. Like are you calculating as you close out for the day on your profits, then putting a portion of that earnings to the side? Or are you doing something else? I've never been self-employed or had an external source of income whereas I've had to account for the taxes myself. With your tutelage, I've done ok for a first-timer in my mind for the 2020 year, but worried I might be setting myself up to get smacked when I file. Therefore all profits I've made have stayed in my account, and are only used to make plays.
Recommendations?

Agreed! How much of it is also based on you being familiar with the ticker and how it generally trends?

For short-term gains put aside 30% of your profit to handle taxes.

Thanks..Glad to know I've been thinking somewhat along the correct lines. For everyday of profit, I've been subtracting 32% in general, but just wasn't sure if that was the correct way of going about it, so I left it all in there.

You can pay up to 37% on short term gains but it really depends on your overall income.
The higher end is for the 6 figures earners, you might want to sit down with a tax specialists and discuss this.
 
I am curious from others who are holding $ZOM whats your price target for the stock?

Honestly it is hard to say but if you already double your money you can take profits.
At the end of March they will release their first product, a diagnostic tool used in clinical veterinarian -TRUFORMA.
This can be a catalyst once they launch it.

Thanks for bringing this up I was wondering the same. I've kept my profits in my account too. Interested to see what my tax guy says this year..

Funny enough my sister in law is a vet and one of her main complaints is the time it takes to run diagnostics on pets. I will ask her if she heard of it
 
A little help please, what EFT do the board suggest for 30-35% growth over the next 20 years...Thanks in advance..

Hard to say. But if you're just starting out and looking for a base level fund with steady growth over that long a period of time.. You can't go wrong with something like:

VTI or
VOO or
SPYG or
VUG or
VXUS

If you want a little more risk but more potential growth, take a look at:

QCLN
ARKK
ARKW
ARKF
ARKG


I personally have this mix:

ARKK/ QCLN/ VGSX/ SPYG in Fund 1

ARKW / VT in Fund 2

ARKF/ VUG/ VXUS in my IRA

...and plan on holding for years. Sometimes fewer is better, as you can make more focused deposits on 1 or 2 quality funds.
