CCP was making noise again today that changes in general are coming. Not just targeting BABA today. Might even be some more deals but I don't want a ton of Chinese holdings. IMO it's buy the biggest or buy an ETF. Not a chance in hell I am small cap shopping there lol. Even BABA is accused of loose accounting since forever.(11-10-2020, 05:09 PM)fenders53 Wrote:Agreed BABA is like getting in on the ground floor like AMZN was 10 years ago.(11-10-2020, 04:02 PM)vbin Wrote: What's up with BABA today?

They just cancelled a $34B IPO BABA was heavily invested. I started a BABA position today. I do believe it is cheap now, but some of the pullback was for a reason. The story changed some, at least in the near-term. IMO BABA is a better play for the next 10 years than AMZN.

CCP wants some control over their potential debt bubble. Good because that would bite US businesses too. Bottomline is it's about monopolistic mega cap finance. BABA will be ok. When the company you own stock in is in under the GOV microscope, you probably found a good stock. Big oil 100 years ago, MSFT/INTC 25 years ago, and FAANG today.(11-10-2020, 05:12 PM)stockguru Wrote:It wasnt delayed only becouse of Jack Ma.

I have always wanted to own this name and finally got a dip lol RE: What Did You Buy Today? - kblake - 11-11-2020 New positions in XOM and VLO Just trying to stay diversified lol And I like TTWO as well. ATVI too RE: What Did You Buy Today? - fenders53 - 11-11-2020 Went crazy and went long another share of BABA for my new growthy port. I got lucky and most everything I bought last month flew so buys are hard to find. Also sold some short term puts in CSCO and INTC. Not because I desire to own a bunch of shares, but I have too much cash and these tend to be easy option money for a DGI stock when they are beaten up this bad. RE: What Did You Buy Today? - divmenow - 11-11-2020 Hey guru you buying 2 shares of APD today down $22 ? Might be a good time to add a few and then a little more if it drops further! I like dips like this in great companies. RE: What Did You Buy Today? - fenders53 - 11-11-2020 (11-11-2020, 11:58 AM)divmenow Wrote: Hey guru you buying 2 shares of APD today down $22 ?

It had a helluva run and it blew up on a two cent earnings miss. Market has not been kind to companies after they report this quarter whether they hit the number or not. I have a limit order in but I need down $25 lol. RE: What Did You Buy Today? - stockguru - 11-11-2020 (11-11-2020, 11:58 AM)divmenow Wrote: Hey guru you buying 2 shares of APD today down $22 ?

We rarely see a dip in this stock. Hydrogen is gaining traction and that changes APD from a boring industrial gas company to a leading provider of main global energy source. BTW what are you thoughts on DRE and DLR? I like DLR since it's had a dip. Thinking of buying some today! And fenders you have 30 moree cents to go and you get to buy it RE: What Did You Buy Today? - fenders53 - 11-11-2020 (11-11-2020, 12:21 PM)stockguru Wrote:I'm in lol.
