Peak tourism, m8. It's really damn tempting to visit Japan now. But to answer your question, m8... yes, they gave up. They have their hands tied behind their backs. They can't really do anything now. They are fugged

>>56571859
Nah. I remember crashing a tricycle into a pile of bricks and hurting my shoulder. I am not familiar with "shooting". The only shooting was when I threw some rocks at a girl after she threw rocks at me.
Shorting more than a few percent shouldn't be legal and defeats the purpose of the original idea of stocks.

No idea what that means bro

>We don't have a consumer economy anymore
Wrong. This whole economy is fundamentally based on consoomerism. That is why Japan has been fugged for a long time now. They refuse to consoom (they have enormous savings) and that is why their goddamn idiotic central bank has been trying to cause inflation for a long time now.
Through the power of sheer consoomerism, you get the highest growth possible. But you need to keep the wheel spinning. If it were to stop... well, that's what you saw back in 2k20 as they did a massive QE.
Look at the latest GDP figures and Amazon's (and similar companies) earnings to get an idea of just how strong the consooomerism is still in the US. It's at ATH

Losses, losses, and more losses. But beat expectations and will probably pump. AMD's earnings have been lackluster to say the least for a long time now.
Oh damn McDonalds had earnings yesterday... and of course they beat. If you can bet on anything it's the american consumerism.

If you want a safe bet, go for Caterpillar. Just like Volvo, they will absolutely CRUSH all expectations.

Eli Lilly should also be a safe play given their ehem unique position

The debt isn't that bad, I just checked. It is growing though (understandable since rates are rising). Their balance sheet is more than enough to handle these small issues. I like that they keep raising their divvies and they have massive exposure to the US military.
Still, the stock is looking pretty bad from a technical standpoint but I guess I am gonna start averaging into it as it starts hitting a region of 130-138 as that was the value it had right before the Covid crash. If it falls to such low levels, it seems almost too idiotic not to buy

Bros have you seen Iceland's yields? 8-10%. Buy now, get 20% (isch) in two years. Pretty stable currency as well and very high rates and inflation. Rich country with minimal problems so the money should be guaranteed.
Anyone have experience with foreign bonds?

Go forth with my blessing, fellow anon. I can only dream of becoming as based as you. Hopefully I will achieve this dream but if not, please make an extra effort for my sake

Yeah it's a bit strange. AMD managed to outdo Intel through years of hard work and some insane work on their hardware. But their coordination when it comes to the software really is just lacking. Honestly, I think all the smart companies like NVDA keep real good track of the good talent and never let them go. Secure the talent and you are all set.
Who knows? There certainly is a good reason why AMD's software implementations have been so poor compared to NVIDIA's.

I love their APUs in laptops. My Ryzen 7 6800HS can run all the games I wanna play at decent detail and runs nice and cool

>>55918972
The demand is that high, possibly even higher. NVDA is also notorious for giving rather conservative guidance so yeah. Everyone wants in on the tech and their profit-to-produce ratio on that hardware is absolutely BRUTAL.
You might think they are overvalued but the truth is that they really are that far ahead and they have quite literally zero competition in the field.

>>55916855
What another round of lockdowns? Are you seriously suggesting that they will institute yet another lockdown? No way, m8. It barely worked last time.
The labor market is finally recovering and they start pulling another Covid? A bit too convenient. We can't have three major stock crashes in three years (2020, 2022, 2023).
Then again, you never know with China. But if they do this, China will officially dig its own grave

>>55779526
Look at Doctor Copper. We are getting fugged. Only stable mega caps (read tech and stocks like Caterpillar, McDonalds, and so on) will survive

Where are all my LUMchads? We rule /smg/

>Fortinet beat expectations
>-25%
Wat? I know that the P/E is kinda high but come on... is this a good slurping opportunity, my fellow /smg/sissies?

>>55730723
Then, isn't it good to buy EU stocks that heavily rely on export to the US? Especially if that country's currency is getting weaker and weaker compared to the dollar? I've seen a lot of EU mega companies reporting massive currency effects due to a strong dollar... Hmmm, time to buy Volvo and similar

>>55718851
As long as inflation is maintained at this level and wages are not properly compensated, companies will keep jacking prices and will keep profitmaxxing (PPI has fallen like crazy). The ECB has literally given up on fighting the inflation and the same goes for all the banks in each individual country. This sticky inflation we got going on here (especially service inflation) is untouchable unless they drastic measures to bring it down.
Until they take the fight seriously, the stock market will keep pumping. That is what I firmly believe

>>55587992
Easiest beat in history. Buy now or get left in the dust. Seriously though, I would be really surprised if they didn't completely demolish expectations

>>55521573
True, I'm just a jaded and cynical bastard so I forgot to include it. There are other factors as well, of course.
Heh, I do like the fact that these "Swedish" companies like those owned by Lundin or Ericsson (for example) all have major ass scandals involving terrorism, huge corruption, and exploitation and murders in Africa. Nobody gives a single iota of crap. Fackin based market

>>55437322
Honestly, I'd like to short this market as well but don't have the balls to do it. I guess the market will do some sort of retracement on Monday but honestly it feels to me that this rally is unstoppable so a retracement doesn't necessarily have to happen.
How are you guys so sure as to when to short? Then again if you guys knew that, everyone here would be a millionaire already

>what signs of cracks are you seeing in real estate?
None? Higher rents --> people pay more than willingly since they just love the bustle and hustle of the big cities (and since salaries have improved significantly in Europoor)
We bought an apartment last year and it's already more valuable. Low property production because "high" rates and "recession" --> lower supply, but since the demand just keeps increasing (especially in large cities)... well, let's just say property prices have either stagnated or gone up depending on the location.
Let's hope property prices will skyrocket. It's good for the economy. I can't believe people are waiting for some kind of bubble to burst and property prices to plummet. Not gonna happen

>>55098230
Buying more NVDA you dolt

Bobos are getting absolutely annihilated. But for real this is ridiculous, NASDAQ is almost 30% this year. And it doesn't seem to stop anytime soon. Greedflation is taking firm roots in everyone's hearts. And now, service inflation is gonna skyrocket in summer and stonks will follow suit. Absolutely brutal market

I love anime girls. No tats. I was talking to a really nice chick yesterday but of course it turns out she has at least three tats. Highly bullish right?
That 4M yield is looking saucy, real nice. I am just waiting for one final pump and will probably sell everything (except for gold which I will keep to a 50% capacity) and join the cash gang
