Exactly. And unless you do some serious ****ing homework you are pretty much subjected to the Random Walk Theory. Or "a rising tide lifts all boats" if you will. I mean if it were so easy to pick out the next Apple or Netflix or Roku everyone would be ****ing rich as hell.

I'll tell you now, if you think you are going to "get rich quick" picking stocks or even worse, penny stocks then you might as well go to the casino and play craps. You literally will have better odds.

I do remember years ago reading "Beating the Street" by Peter Lynch and if memory serves, he showed a group of 10 year olds picking stocks that beat the "Street" lol.....
I`m not mocking anyone but that part of his book resonated with me. |

Peter Lynch had a very simple yet very confusing (for some) approach. "Invest in what you know". Pier 1 Imports was an example he loved to use. You go to Pier 1 and you see it's packed. "Hmmm, perhaps I should buy this stock. They seem to be doing a lot of business".

But because of PISS POOR CHIEFSPLANET ADVICE I'm now playing the pandemic to regain my losses. And nearly there. Hell, I should have been a lot less conservative, I would have made all my money back on MARK and VTIQ already, instead of just half. Got out too early. No matter. I'll make it back, and a far higher percentage than you will election night. PROVE IT, CHUMP.

In the long run (in my case at least) mutual funds and stable dividend stocks are better choices. I still play around with individual stocks and penny stocks. Nothing big, I put a grand in a TD ameritrade account last summer, haven't added anymore, and I'm up about 110 bucks. That's a terrible rate of return for a year. Granted, I'm not a skilled trader. There's been some WILD swings, but like pete said...it's my casino money. I don't go out much, and playing in the stock market has replaced my online gaming entertainment. I do it for fun, and know full well that it's not going to make me rich. |
