Maybe a good long term investment.. crocs stock is wayy down off its big highs.. being that they are set to aquire the shoe company 'hey dude'



Crocs Inc. has entered into a deal to acquire the privately owned footwear brand Hey Dude. The deal is valued at $2.5 billion and expected to close in Q1 of 2022.
The deal marks Crocs’ largest acquisition to date. Crocs acquired Jibbitz, the company that makes accessories for the clogs, in 2006.
Like Crocs, Hey Dude is a comfort-focused footwear brand that has what Crocs executive see as a strong potential for growth. According to Crocs’ investor presentation regarding the deal, the Hey Dude acquisition will help Crocs diversify its portfolio and build upon Crocs’ already strong digital penetration. It also turns Crocs into a multi-brand company for the first time.

 
Doesn't matter if it's a republican or a democrat, the agenda remains the same.
Print more money and continue devaluing the dollar.
Trust me when I say that this house of cards is going to implode.


And I remember at the beginning of the COVID pandemic, people were complaining that there was a toilet paper shortage. All they had to do was look in their wallets. :rolleyes::lol:
 
On CNBC’s "Mad Money Lightning Round," Jim Cramer said he doesn’t like NIO Inc. (NYSE:NIO), calling the stock too risky. "I would get out and get out soon," he added.

Y'all know a lot of people follow his advice.
Whatever he says, go against it. That is KNOWN. Actually, CNBC is legally required to put a disclaimer up now whenever he is on TV because of his bad advice history.

But $NIO is different because of the Chinese. They are pulling stocks off the US exchanges now.
 
Crazy...I forgot about the thread and forgot i had XRP in my Ripple wallet. Congrats to everyone who bought some XRP back in 2017. I bought 88k+ in January of 2017 for $600 and some change, still holding!
Strong investment. Going to give it another 5 years before i get rid of it or convert to BTC. Actually, i think i'll wait for BTC to drop again then purchase and wait for it to appreciate. Keep buying and dumping.

No shade, but this year has been rough for a lot of people.

I mean, an S&P 500 based index fund would've gotten around 25% return (so far)...(116k *1.25 = ~145k). Sometimes the best strategy is the easiest.



****Edit**** I'd be pissed if this were my portfolio. I would at least want a 10-15% return as a minimum given that 25%+ market return.

True.. active trading vs investing.

The way he frames this account he seems pretty active (although I haven't watched his stuff in a WHILE). But if he's still in and out of shit stocks -- as if the market is what it was over a yr ago -- then I can totally understand this outcome.

I truly hope that those "other", more stable accounts that he sometimes mentions having really do exist... and that this is just his fun money. Also, with his following being a lot of beginners, I always thought he should've pivoted and done a better job of preaching the average market return you mention.

I think his portfolio was like 150k last month. This gotta be his play money he chasing stocks with.
He making a killing selling his weekly option plays and courses. He isn't hurting, but his "how to" trade account isn't looking too hot.

I have my HSA in a total stock market fund, looking at its 1 year performance I should have just did that with my other accounts :lol:

Preface: I haven't closely followed Tesla

I think competition in 2022 could cause some concern for Tesla in 2022 (more likely 2023) in their EV space as consumers have more EV choices. But remember, Tesla and EV are synonymous in the US market plus their battery/solar endeavors could prove big. Other EV OEMs still need to show that they can manufacture/execute.
