Same. I'm cash heavy right now after a house sale earlier this year. I'd be lying if I said I'm comfortable spending it right now.

Sitting tight for now.

Should we buy glass companies? NYC is going to need it.

I missed the boat on that one. Tried to get in at $1.80 then the market closed. Was waiting for it to come back down and it never did.

Watching COCP. Vanguard and Morgan Stanley have bought over 1million shares in the last two weeks.

Some digging shows:

Cash available till end of 2021.

Patent registration completed and testing targeted to be completed in June.

Strong board of directors.

R&D pipeline includes 4 streams with Covid being one of them.

Collaboration with Merck means a potential revenue and milestone payments of $200m if influenza therapy is successful.

Any thoughts on SDC? It has been steadily going up lately and they just expanded operations. I bought up some, just wondering how deep I should jump in.

This one?

There is a big "short" around $8.70....but if it were to break that...there is hardly any resistance showing on the charts up to $10. And it was around $15 in February.

Yeah, I also have some GE at $6.34 and was pondering which of these two to buy up with my next round of deposit. I bought some GE a while back cuz they’ve been around forever, they’re really low right now and they seem to be slowly getting it together since their scandal a few years ago. I’m currently leaning towards SDC cuz they seem more likely to bounce back in the near future-end of year.

Btw, how do you check when a certain company has upcoming meetings, press releases, ER, etc? I can’t find that info on TDA or thelion.com.

It took off today. I'm up 2X my initial investment. Only wished I had loaded more.

**Edit**....Now I'm out. It may go up more, but I'm happy. Being greedy can be hurtful.

Not to brag or anything.......but look at the date I posted this for everyone to look at. 5/14. I doubled my money...got out...and then bought back in.

Sold today and made a killing!!!!!

The fed tapered their corporate junk bond/ETF buying from $75B/day to $4.5B/day and market still being pumped to this level is crazy to me.

Fortunately, my puts are far enough out till late June/July where we can still have a market correction, but for now they're not looking that great.

May not be the perfect thread, but I think it has the right audience.

Anyone participate in ESPP? Mine offers 15% discount of market price with up to 10% salary investment (up to $20k/year). Latest dividend offering looks to be one share per 18.3 or something shares owned. As I understand it, the program automatically purchases quarterly and the 15% discount price is based of the average share price for that quarterly period.

Curious on other people's experiences. I've tossed 3% of my bi-weekly checks into the hat, but I have no experience with it. Figured I've recently gotten a 3% annual raise, so it will go unnoticed and hopefully prove to be worth more than the 3% provided. Company is doing well, so...why not?

...right?

Bought SAVE at $14.40 yesterday, pretty happy with today; over 20% in one day. Also played GNUS for a little while. Ended up doubling my money but took profits and moved on. Crazy that GNUS continues to rise...

Mostly Vanguard. Can't go wrong with pretty much any of their stuff that mimics the S&P.
