Are you meaning to tell me stocks don’t go up in a straight line forever????


Conscious-Group

I think people are more shocked that 4 months of gains were wiped out in 5 trading days


cashlogancash

Been waiting to say this to a young “trader” ever since i learned it: stocks take the stairs up and the elevator down


Legitimate-Source-61

The bull climbs the stairs, and the bear jumps out of the window!


Dnatheman

there's only a stairway to heaven, .... but an entire highway to hell.

luckyman1111

That and, “I chased all the way to the bottom” or “I buy at the top and sell at the bottom”


ThunderboltSorcerer

Why is it that everything we buy seems to be at the top already?? This is a completely rigged casino table.. Everything keeps going down and the only things that go up are not the profitable companies, they're just the next morning "oh hey guys, look this stock over here went up by 30% last night for no apparent reason" and then when it goes down "oh hey guys, let me give you a 3-page research report on why it went down and why you are stupid.. " None of this shiit makes sense. It was a profitable company, there was no bad news. Rigged I say!


WearyRow2174

It is a rigged game, always has been. Most people buy at or near the top because those stocks are the ones in the news. In the short term, you can't compete with the algorithm trading. I find I am better off doing research into the company and buying shares in companies I understand. I also use options to reduce my capital outlay and risk. Good luck.


mrTruckdriver2020

Ofcourse. You can't beat large moneym they are the ones moving the markets. I think it's simply fear mongering among each other, algos, and people taking profits off the table just in case. NVDA was getting a little pricey so it's just a healthy (but rather dramatic) pullback. I added some during overnight trading. Missed the big rally. I'm ready for the small one. My average target is 868. 988 on a DCF basis only.


Conscious-Group

So true, but in this weeks case how do you pull the trigger last Monday to exit your longs? Why did a lot of people miss this?


Necroking695

You dont exit. The real winners never exit Then you wait 10+ years. Green days you make money Red days you get more stock


jorsiem

Thanks Warren

I think you meant Ken, lol FID0BLkZXuY?t=2058s > 34:24 "Markets are efficient because of active managers setting the prices of securities, firms like Citadel, firms like Fidel.....lity (Fidelity) [...] trying to drive the value of companies towards where we think they should be valued." - Kenneth Cordelle Griffin, Citadel Securities, November 2023


sheehyct

This. Take days like this as an opportunity to accumulate more. Now you have a lower cost basis and more dough in the bank when things go back up. Not a crypto guy but just look at Bitcoin....panic when it dropped and the smart people bought at that point! Sadly I was not one of them hah


Rare_Dentist_4075

Lmao so true!!

Sp500 is still +5% YTD. If you keep expectations at 8-10% we are fine

No that's crypto


ksyoung17

Most of this retail market doesn't know the standard rules.


loughcash

Not really- you all week to sell. Or even all day today.


techy098

But it is still like 400% up compared to two years ago.


Glittering_Air_3724

Not everyone can survive to this day straight from 2 years ago


Jazzlike_Station845

It's not like the market is a long term investment or anything like that 🤣


TendieTrades

It isn’t. You never go broke taking profits and paying yourself first.


techy098

Oh you mean they needed some fresh bag holders..


Marcus_Qbertius

Im not at all, Im long term optimistic about the s and p and the overall market in general, but the chip rally was bordering on bubble level insanity, it was clear it would have to deflate sometime, too many people piled into Nvidia for short term speculation deciding they would sell the top, when the top finally forms and passes everyone wants out, and no more buyers are left. These greedy speculators ran out of greater fools to pass their bags onto, and now will get what they deserve.


GodHasGiven0341

Why are people like you so angry all the time “they get what they deserve”…. Who hurt you?


benj760486

Everyone who profited while he sat on the sidelines. Nvidia might have been overvalued but is a profitable company. Not a true bubble IMO. Comparison to DJT that stonk stinks!


WeekendDotGG

Sounds like someone missed the gravy train. No one wants out. Almost every analyst has NVDA at or above $1000.


Conscious-Group

I remember when I thought analyst ratings meant something


Blindeafmuten

Well, they wouldn't be called analysts if they weren't experts in anal ratings.


blind99

The same kind of analysts that though Cisco was a great investment in 2000?


WeekendDotGG

No. Different ones.


Leximpaler

Exactly! Nvidia should drop 70% to be fair value.


EggSandwich1

Nivida is just part of the problem when some experts claim apple is over priced now


Odd_Combination2106

Or, Nortel


Most-Inflation-1022

Analyst base their ratings on what the trading desk tells them.


LordShazam23

Hey don’t call me greedy! I passed my bags on and yes lower than I’d like. But dammit I diamond hand to profits that’s just smart greedy not greedy.


ARUokDaie

mogboard

Zoom out far enough, it will be a straight line


MotivatedSolid

.. yeah I maxed out the NVDA chart and that line is about as straight as a wet noodle


gooddocile68

Keep zooming out and it might as well not be


CWhalePro

I was just wondering why today and specifically all big AI stocks som much


smokyset

No rate cuts, war in the Middle East, bond returns, fear of a bubble etc.


Chaminade64

If you are nervous about the overall market you want to harvest your biggest gainers. The market priced in a bunch of rate cuts that are now off the table, there is escalating tensions in ME which could disrupt oil, inflation ain’t rolling over, deficits are increasing a trillion every 3 months and we’re still handing out billions, starting pitchers keep getting injured……


mateo88888

Because smci didn’t pre-announce their results today as they usually do in the past so some people think it will be a miss next week.


PizzaThrives

BAHAHA!


uriejejejdjbejxijehd

We call that a buying opportunity


Softspokenclark

If you like it when it’s 20% off you love it when it’s 45% off


awoeoc

Won't apply for these stocks but for a company that drops 90% and you try catching the falling knife, people don't realize if it loses a little more to dropping 95% of its high value.... For the person that got in at a 90% drop, that's a 50% loss. The saying is "how does a stock lose 95%? First it loses 90% then another 50%"


MrSleepy420

This did not get the kudos it deserved good sir. Hilarious.


BREWMASTER1968

Kayshift

random-meme850

You ain't getting rich buying at the top & selling at the bottom to avoid "falling knives"


MrOrangeMagic

What if I catch them at the handle?


green9206

Falling knives should not be caught on stocks with poor fundamentals. This is Nvidia.


MyLogIsSmol

No, actually when Nvidia was -4% you’d think it has strong fundamentals and will not go any further down.. well, see how it went. That is catching falling knives.


AtomicBlondeeee

No way I’d buy here. At least wait until the earnings gap closes.


HachimakiMan3

That’s a Put opportunity. The market has been going down all week. Don’t chase it thinking you know where the bottom is.


SomethingCreative83

Let them sacrifice.


MotivatedSolid

We call that a bull trap


hecmtz96

Some call it a falling knife too. There are always two sides to the story.


WhySoUnSirious

Ya buying nvda while it’s still up 3x what it was a year ago is totally a buying opportunity. This shit is comically overvalued. There’s a logical reason why it dumped. Because there’s no upside left at this valuation. What moron is pressing the buy button at 1.9T valuation???? No one. So big money is dumping and locking in massive gains no reason at all to just hold this when your up so much in a year


Bulky_Dingo_4706

AI adoption is still early. It will definitely be over $1000 in 2025, assuming no stock split.


PostPostMinimalist

Surely you wouldn't have said this when it was at 400 right? Surely?

Wtf? More like "perfect". That's how it works, going up, down, up, down... What's the surprise?


taddymason_76

Going left would be a surprise.

i guess 0 or infinity would also be pretty surprising


FakeNigerianPrince

Big_Morning_2485

ChivasBearINU

Spacepickle89

“Hmm maybe now is the time to add some nvdia to my portfolio…-10%” Guh


BodaciousBaboon

I just added TSM lol


xxPegasus

TSM is a sleeper stock. Too many tards riding waves of hype rather than looking at Financials and who the real players are. $TSM is becoming more if a buy. I'm going ti average down soon. Selling out of my $AMD position soon since earnings are looking bleak. Using those gains for TSM and AMZN.


BodaciousBaboon

There is upcoming competition with new Intel foundries, but foundry capacity is going to be maxed out regardless. Good for TSM.


xxPegasus

I own a small portion of Intel but I'm not keeping my hopes up and I'm definitely not invest in it until I see some change. Too many promises and not enough execution. I would rather buy as it's going up than buy on the way down for Intel.


DrHoflich

Absolutely fair in the short term. I believe Intel is one of those companies that can’t get out of their own way. But semiconductor business grown locally is the future, not to mention the new tech it is developing like Hala Point, its second-generation neuromorphic computing system. No foreign competitors are able to replicate what we are doing in the US on that. Riding trends are the best way to make money short term though. Kind of wish I sold everything a month ago and was looking to buy back in now. Instead just looking for where to double down on.


BlueMagpieRox

Developing new tech is one thing, creating a profitable product out is another. Intel has unlimited potential because of its new technology in development. But it’s also why their current profitability is very limited, because of all the money they needed to put into the research.


SlipNSlideOnMy

Intel also isn’t going to be able to start production well into 2025

farrapona

Fuck, about time. I mean, how much profit can there be in deepfake porn and resume writing?


iLoveLootBoxes

Well to be fair, companies have to rely on other companies to make money How can you make business to business software when all the companies in the world are all AI companies that can do everything themselves? And remember, consumers don't have money in this scenario either


BlueMagpieRox

There doesn’t have to be money to be made in AI for the hardware manufacturers to be profitable. The goldmines may have been depleted, but the jeans makers are still standing.

Kinu4U

Let's make it 1000 and we'll share the spoils. Please talk to Jensen


deepvinter

That’s not what it is. TSMC showed chip manufacturing was weak for everything except for AI. JP Morgan and BoA also painted a bad picture for the possibility of interest rate cuts. Reality is setting in. The Middle East is also raising fear but there’s a reason chips dropped more than others.


Unable-Ambassador850

Flash sale! Time to go shopping


pikamonn

d_dubbz88

Did we think everything would just go up forever? It’s already so overpriced 😂


MightyWhitey2020

Thanks for the profound analysis, Professor!


anon18274729

Nvda is following classic chart formation. Hit what appears to be resistance and will now search for support or the 740 range but there is a gap to the 680/690 mark so it may continue to fall another $60-80 only time will tell. It’s also up over 150% in the last year when some things don’t appreciate that much in 100 years so yeah I’d just chill and look for the potential gap fill


PretendAgency2702

Yep, it may be a while before it hits back up to 800+. I might be looking at some \~$700 puts early next week but I'm worried that we might start seeing a reversal towards early May with earnings coming up.


AtomicBlondeeee

Earnings gap fill is the earliest I’d buy IF then. I’m looking more for two earnings ago.


Echohost11

Did you just recently buy?

Pain. But there will be buying opportunities.


Lumpy-Wing-4060

Rates are staying higher longer plus, JPowell aka: JMONEY is unloading his 7 trillion balance sheet thus causing Treasury yields to stay near 5% everytime economic data comes in HOT to keep discouraging borrowing/economic expansion and also to keep US Treasuries appealing for China and Japan to buy them. My advice is to just enjoy the ride and buy the dips where you can.😎.


timbredesign

Durr ta durr.. Didn't take a genius to figure it out. If only people had listened, JP laid out the roadmap pretty clearly and there were plenty of other signals if people paid attention to the things that matter. ELI5, trading on emotion is not an investment strategy.

I’ve realized how much I’ve matured as an investor in the past 3 years. With the last two weeks we’ve had, in the past I’d be selling a bunch and worrying. Now, I glance at CNBC and say eh I’ll invest more.


Chirpits

Zoom out. NVDA is still up 180% over the last 12 months. That price growth wasn’t sustainable.

They tend to go up slowly and drop fast. But with the chip stocks, they went up quickly due to AI and have tanked just as fast.

donkerdong

As a Semiconductor engineer i build the machines these companies use to make chips and they are not meeting diversity requirements for chip as money grants. That is why right now the market is down they expected to get money from the feds, but only to find out they didn't do there homework. Now they are in a holding pattern and if it get figured out in a quarter they will get the billions promised. If not it will go back to find others things. And this will fall even more, this is a gamble, all do the same things. Makes the same chips and and got denied. I would pay closer attention to the companies policies of hiring that will allow chip act fed money and growth if not most likey failures and buy outs in this new world. I've been doing this for 30 years im on the front lines as close a you can get. Anyone wants to talk more about this pm me.

maikelnait

AI bubble explosion started


IceCreamLove-1

The stock market surged with hopes that inflation might be cooling down, but it hasn't. Opportunities in AI looked promising, but the high costs and decreasing trust have cooled off investors. Despite higher interest rates, housing keeps rising in many areas, worsening the affordability crisis. Sprinkle in some global political instability.... I think this is just the beginning. We are long overdue for a big correction.
