maffew buildings posted:My biopharma plays from last week broke even, I now know set alerts for stuff on the FDA approval calendar seeing that EVOK popped for 100% between Friday AH and PM today before some sell off this morning. Seems kind of obvious in retrospect but that's learning. That's a pretty good idea. I may do the same. I've been dabbling in small pharma/biotech as well, but I have to be careful because my company works hand in hand with many pharma companies and I am directly involved with monitoring the outcomes of the trials/knowing who has what new contracts/etc.

I don’t share any info with anyone online or anywhere else when I know what’s going on and I’ve never used my knowledge before to benefit myself. I’ve always been too scared to do anything with the info I have to avoid doing something stupid.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:It's surprisingly difficult to actually commit insider trading. Like, fewer than 5% of a company's employees probably know something that would even make it possible to do. If you have the authority to fire half the company or write seven figure checks with the company's checkbook, you're probably in a position where you know enough. But if not, you're just an employee who knows what's going on at work. Yeah, I don’t share info, nor do I ask coworkers for it. But, if I’m working on a drug trial, I know when they’re ending and most of the time, I can tell whether the news will be good or bad. I assume buying stock/puts/calls with that knowledge wouldn’t look good.

I haaaaate SUVs and pickup trucks, but I've always been a fan of the 2 door K5 blazer. I can't figure out how to build them with only 2 doors on the ford site, but damnit, I may be interested in these if, and only if I could get it in 2 doors. If it's enticing me to possibly want one, they likely have a hit. I may pick up some F as well.

For anyone that may want to get in early, I loaded up on UAVS a couple weeks ago as they're a drone company that may be announcing a large partnership with Amazon soon. This morning, they had a press release that they're moving to their new warehouse/manufacturing facility in Wichita, KS just a short distance away from a brand new Amazon warehouse. Keep an eye on it today to increase. E: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-...ita-Kansas.html

FreelanceSocialist posted:You've got a company producing a niche product (ag drones), nothing really that innovative, pushes a cryptic announcement and builds a new facility "near" to an Amazon hub. Company appears to be only tangentially-related to one aspect of Amazon's business plan (drones). Company makes an announcement about issuing stock/warrants but words it so that it will be deliberately misinterpreted by people skimming articles (flag: this "offering" was priced above the market price). Company makes no effort to make it easy to figure out when their earnings release was going to be - most sites I checked were still TBD on the date as late as mid-week last week. The actual quarterly report throws up some big numbers but they almost all feel like they were padded by the $10m stock warrant thing that went down, the recent move to build the new facility, etc. I just don't see any actual R&D or sales stuff to back any of this up. All I really see is a small company, a penny stock for quite a long time, that got some mileage out of a few content-light PR pieces and then got a capital infusion. I could be totally wrong but I just don't feel like this is the "ground floor" of anything - which feels like exactly what the company wants it to look like - what with them "teasing" investors with a secret deal with some ecommerce company and touting some kind of product/service to solve a "last mile" problem that doesn't really exist in a form they can solve with drones anytime soon. Ahh ok, you could be right about a lot of that and does sound like a very “don’t look behind the curtain” kind of thing. Thanks for explaining it!

AHH F/UGH posted:The nice thing about Robinhood is just that it's so god drat intuitive and uncluttered. If you want to do something there's generally a pretty clear and simple way to do it without having to construct some Frankenstein's monster trade or worry that you're messing something up when opening or closing. For years, I’d thought about buying stocks with a little bit of money here and there. My wife and I have vanguard Roth IRAs with vanguard mutual funds. She has a Fidelity 401k and I have a mass mutual 401k all with vanguard mutual funds. When the market talked earlier this year my wife and i talked about buying up some airline stock, but I had no idea how to do it. A friend showed me RH, it has no fees and as said above, it’s easy as hell to use. I still only have like $6,000 in it and I’m not a serious trader. I don’t do crazy options trades or spreads. I don’t day trade. I have figured out how to sell a few covered calls and make about $100/ month just doing that. I don’t need a ton of detailed info. I don’t need in depth analysis. It does what I want for a casual user to quickly and easily buy a few stocks that I have access to on my phone. I also love the fact that the stodgy old guard can’t stand that millennials are loving up the system with their upstart trading platform.

This may be a dumb question, but you gotta learn somehow and I only recently started investing outside of retirement mutual funds. I’ve recently made a few hundred $ in covered calls in my fun money RH account. Currently, I have 100% VTSAX in my vanguard Roth IRA. Would it be possible to sell that, purchase 100% VTI (minus the <$200 that I’m not able to buy a full share with) in the Roth IRA and sell covered calls on every 100 shares? If possible, is there any reason I shouldn’t do that? Would the gains affect the $6,000 max that I can deposit to my Roth IRA for 2020? Disclaimer: any gains are not for withdrawal, but for additional growth in my retirement accounts.

It’ll be interesting to see how the possibility for temperature excursions and the need for such cold temps will affect it. Temperature excursions happen constantly even in -20 degree C freezers and 2-8 degree C refrigerators. Not necessarily due to bad freezers/refrigerators but people either constantly going in them or leaving them open, or breaking them to get in, etc etc. Or they get lost in shipping and spend an extra day in transit and all the dry ice melts. Source: me, who works in vaccine trials and has to deal with temp excursions more frequently than I’d like.
