We will get a drop similar to the dot com bubble. If you look at the average P/E ratio in the US stock market today we have gains in stock price with no backing from fundamentals. There are still niche stocks which still are relatively fair priced from a value perspective (profitable, no/little debt, growth in sales + earnings despite covid, PE < 10).
.
As far as when - most likely in the next 18 months. The technical analysis of the stock market looks incredibly bullish in the short term. If stocks were to crash, we would need to have a large catalyst. The pseudo-cold war with China is most likely. If you've watched Defense stocks in the last few weeks, you would notice an huge increase in the number of government grants by the Navy. Lockheed Martin and MIND technologies received government grants for a combination of missile defense, sonar, and radar technology. We know something is coming and we will find it.

Two words. Tinka Resources. Stock-price is exactly the same as it was in February, and yet:

1) Some of the best zinc deposits in the world, just as zinc is at a 7-month high;

2) 60 million ounces of silver in the ground;

3) Potential for an open-pit silver mine;

4) No debt, and 20 million in cash;

5) Located in a safe mining district, central Peru;

6) Has a competent management-team;

7) Strong exploration potential to find more silver;

8) Drilling begins this month.

The solitary reason why Tinka hasn't gone up 5x yet is because of a lack of PR. All it needs is the slightest bit of exposure to double or triple within a week. We saw this in the case of Gold Terra and Blind Creek Resources. The junior mining sector is so unknown to the general public that all you have to do is invest in these obviously valuable stocks before the herd rushes in, and remain patient.

Yes, for some companies. But entities like Apple or Amazon might as well be nations by now, not companies. The big guys are practically invincible.

The companies I fear for are the small caps, which could trigger a cascade of problems. From banks to stuff like Nike or Delta Airlines.
Won't stop people buying at Walmart or buying iPhones with their visa though.

your use of the word because is what makes your statement irrelevant

It's not that retail traders are the cause, it's just a consideration. It's like a pawprint in the woods. If you see a bear's pawprint, that doesn't mean you're about to be mauled by a bear, but it makes it likely that a bear is somewhere in the area, though it may be a good ways away.

Silver was $18 in Feb., it's now pushing against $30 and is certainly going higher. And silver going up is a long-term trend which will hold. Nothing like tankers, which was silly and short-termist. Tinka's silver deposits have doubled in price since Feb., that's simply a fact.

Peru is one of the best countries for miners. There is no reason whatsoever to stay away from Peru. Don't be fooled into thinking that only first world countries are "safe." Canada's central bank, for example, has literally no gold reserves, and Canada may be one of the first countries to nationalize its mines.

He believes that a stock you invest in should be a full commitment where you put all your faith into a company.

Tankers dropped after Q1 because rates decreased in the short term. Shipping is a cyclical business on micro and macro cycles. In the short term, tankers trade with the seasons. Rates are highest in winter (heating) and falter in the summer when these is less demand for oil. On a macro scale rates are scaled to the supply of ships. Rates fall when there is an excess of ships on the water relative to cargo (supply and demand - more competition means lower cost for the customer and less profit for the company). Currently tankers are at near historic lows for booking orders to the point where some are trading for less than what the boats are worth.

The COVID scenario caused rates to skyrocket temporarily because we had a glut of oil which needed to be stored (so movement of oil AND storage of oil benefited tankers). The macro thesis is still plausible. Book orders are nearly nonexistant and many old ships will be removed from the water if they need to be upgraded to follow environmental regulations.

Of course, for tankers to do well oil would need to recover.

Your dad is actually right.
Warren buffet talks a lot about this. If you truly believe something is the best investment opportunity you go all in.
Diversification comes in two flavors
1) diversification as a hedge against ignorance. This is basically saying that you aren’t as sure of your investment picking abilities so you want to manage your risk.
2) diversification of uncorrelated assets. You can be “diverse” by picking different companies like coke AND Pepsi but they’re still just soft drinks. But coke and real estate are probably less correlated and if something happened to one industry it’s probably not indicative of something happening to the other.
Not the best example but I think it gets the point across.

Apple, Amazon, and any other big tech stocks are trading at or above pre-corona levels because of speculation on the effects that the corona-crisis, and ensuing government action, would have on their short-term profits. Shit got out of control and now Apple is now worth 2 trillion dollars even though its net income has been stagnate for the past two years. Are you too stupid to even realize the risk inherent in such a arrangement? Everything in this market is built on sand. You can make a lot of money in it, but that doesn't negate the underlying insanity and risk of it.

>> No.21382641

Kek, a stock is only as valuable as what people will pay for it and the demand of it. Look at Amazon. Shits at over 3000 per w/a cap of 1.58T. Apple is almost 2T cap but is just 460 per share. MSFT is 1.58T cap but is just 208 a share. But in Apple's case on 8-31 that share price will drop to around 115 per. 115 per for an almost 2T cap company. Yeah... that's cheap. Absurdly cheap, which is why it won't last. It'll climb back up. All to your gain. 10,000 investment pre split = 10,000 investment post split. Just you'd have more shares post than you did pre. But cheaper shares. Which as I said will only go up. So lets say those shares double, 115 to 230. Well you've just doubled your investment. 10k to 20k. On nothing but demand.

Well ok. Point taken. I’m just saying that the average guy is buying stocks to bear inflation and hopefully outperform the market. So he can retire at some point and get a sailboat or some shit. 99.99% of share holders don’t give a fuck about “owning a piece of the company.” They see the share as currency they can exchange for cash.

I still don't understand why people invest in a company purely because they think others would invest in it... sounds like trying to time a pump and dump rather than trying to grow buying power through partial business acquisitions.

Those are people buying businesses and directly receiving profit from it, retard, not just buying the ownership itself. There would be no reason to have minority ownership in any company without profit or at least the speculation that it will be worth more in the future as the company grows. Stocks absent dividends and buybacks is ownership without profit, they only rise in value because of liquidity flowing into them in the right market conditions and the underlying performance of the company.

The fact that there are tens of thousands of companies that aren't growing and not offering any dividends yet still go up in value because of the greater market shows that it's a giant ponzi scheme, only the scheme never ends.

There is a difference between holding shares and actively running a business.

Reread your post. If people are buying stocks that are not fairly priced, far above what they are actually worth, what does that tell you about the market as a whole? It is over inflated because there is a disconnect in price of stocks versus actual earnings as a whole.

Yes, people buy shares of a company for speculative reasons. Speculation can be lucrative in the short term, especially when your portfolio is small and you have little to lose. But once your portfolio gets to big boy digits you need to be much more selective in how you approach your purchases.

How many stocks are fairly priced absent speculation that the price will increase in the future? If you look at true value of what you are buying, even most 'value' stocks are overvalued because most of them pay unimpressive dividends and offer very little for your ownership of them. That is why price increase is the key consideration to concern yourself with. It doesn't matter to me if a company has a great PE ratio and is growing rapidly if it's unlikely to increase in price. Fundamentals would only be the main consideration if the market was rational and people were focused on getting actual profit from their ownership and not speculating.

We've definitely seen an influx of cash into the market. Quantifying where it came from is the hard part. You've got to consider the negative real yields in bonds and treasuries. People want to at least beat inflation, and they want to do it safely, but their options are very limited. Tech has continuously been the backbone of this idealized security and positive real yields, both from the perspective of investors and traders.

But that is a problem, not in that they're wrong, they're entirely correct that it is secure and that it still remains a continuous growth sector. But the current valuations are a far departure - in many cases - from the reality of fundamentals. With that disconnect in mind, consider interest rates, and yields moving up at any point. The fed has so much control, and they've so far managed a decent house of cards, but any wrong step by them could be catastrophic, and it will send the far departed tech sector valuations to meet with their fundamentals.

I’m an appraiser. I can ask any retards on the street if they think values are going up or down and get 50 different answers.

I can ask real estate brokers and they’ll give me a few different answers and information.

People pay for my opinion and use it as collateral. I’m supposed to be the most likely person to know what is happening in the market.

Stocks are just like this. There are people with firsthand knowledge of what is actually driving value and they will always beat everyone else. We’re all just trying to keep up depending on which way they move. The biggest bag holders go off that information that they pay tons of money for. When they sell, everyone sells. These are the people that determine actual value, everyone else is just hoping they get it right along with them.

To summarize my point, I no longer believe that the fundamentals by themselves matters because even if the market had a great average PE or PEG, it would still be overpriced if you exclusively looked at stocks as 'how much money are these businesses going to give to me for my stake in them?'. It's all overextended and probably has been since the first stock exchange opened. It's a question how overvalued can the market get until people get concerned about it being overvalued and it crashes but it will probably never crash to a point where it's correctly valued. When it crashes, it will affect value stocks as well so I don't think your strategy offers much protection, it's a rock people cling to against a irrational machine. Getting overly concerned with fundamentals is in itself irrational.

I think the most profitable strategy is acknowledging it's like a never ending ponzi scheme and you should just look at the likelihood that a stock will go up and by how much. If the music ever stops, everyone is fucked anyway.

Are you using a weighted index as your average P/E model? Here's a quick list of familiar aberrations:

TSLA - 834
GLW - 321
SQ - 317
AMD - 162
HPE - 152
ADSK - 173
AMZN - 121
NFLX - 85
NVDA - 85

Of course there's countless thousands of others with astronomical P/E ratios. Personally, I don't see it as representative of a healthy market. I imagine we'll see slippage.

Have 20k I can risk in credit spreads and I have a few questions for you anons familiar with this stuff.

1. How far out (date wise) should my credit spreads be?

2. Which is generally better in credit spreads, calls or puts?

3. What amount credit should I generally aim for in relation to the amount I'm risking and how soon should I close it out? Eg risking $1k collateral so minimum credit should be 8% ($80) and cashing out once I've made a return od 50% ($40).

Those stocks you listed have astronomical P/E ratios but reasonable ratios relative to the rest of the market if you include growth.
>>21385061
The fundamentals are out the window but people never truly admit to this and the market can correct to some still ridiculously overvalued level but that's not really the music truly stopping. For that I think it would take something other than humans looking at the situation objectively and seeing that we're basically trading baseball cards to each other and it only works because of money flowing into the game. Maybe our AI overlords will put a stop to it, but at that point money probably won't matter much because they'll be allocating resources directly to you.

Other than that im pretty fucking confident on more upside on TSM once it's revealed how much intel paid TSM to get the massive capacity so fast, and whatever entire lineups (which will be dependent on TSM) intel will announce.

dont care about SMIC, just bullshit FUD scaring away people who don't actually understand they can't actually catch up to TSM. Maybe they can catch up to Intel but that's not saying much.

I agree. I still use fundamentals to aid in price prediction but I'm more considering how people react to their extremes rather than the fundamentals themselves.
>>21385558
You really need to use PEG if you're going to try to value something in this way. A company growing 50% each year and a company that isn't growing won't be treated the same way by the fewer people that care about 'value'.

This is outdated but I think the the PEG S&P versus tech are very similar.

You guys are so retarded when it comes to PE ratios.

If you are so scared of tech having ~insanely bubble popping 2000s dot com bubble burst PE ratios~ of 162 AMD, 121 AMZN, 85 NFLX..

Go all in on these amazing stocks with great PE ratios instead! Surely it'll work out amazingly for you.
XRX 2.90
NCLH 3.54
DAL 3.92
CCL 3.51
UAL 3.08
AAL 3.50
MGM 5.47
GM 5.96
ALK 6.06

Nothing is valued properly but even if tech is overvalued relative to the rest of the market, it still will likely outperform because people are forward looking and they believe it to be the better investment so more money will flow into it. It's 2020, I don't want to own businesses with brick and mortar stores. I don't want to own oil. I don't want to own bonds with a 0.02% rate.

People with an IQ > 75 were discussing how we evaluate the value of a stock and whether a high stock price is justified when earnings are low. P/E is one metric - low PE = you pay less price for what the company earns. Quarterly earnings growth, annual growth, and lack of debt are just as important when you invest.
Or you could invest in meme pump and dumps. It sounds like it's working for you.
