Saw one of my boys this past Friday for the first time in over a year. He was in Ghana a few months back visiting fam and told me I should go out there.
We were also choppin it up over this:
My trading account is still down about 2 Gs from my high late last year, but Im sitting on some growth plays that I refuse to sell. Ima patient man so its all good... my long term ish has withstood the test of time so far: Basically 10-20% allocation dedicated to 8 diff holdings. So that diversification, and OIL (XOM) kept my numbers up so far this year. And my broad market funds have been rollin lately. If /when tech bounces back should be another lil run. So Im just DCA and letting things grow slowly there..
Safe travels man![]()
The Role Of Nuclear Power In A Clean Energy System

Summary
- Nuclear power has historically been the most critical source of zero-carbon emission electricity globally.
- Policies in the developed world appear likely to result in the marginalization of nuclear power.
- A fade in nuclear power will likely produce an increase in the importance of natural gas in power markets.
- & Increase in the cost of electricity to consumers which may impact economic growth.

Woke up late today
Missed market open
why is everything so green?
Gotta love it! $FSR only a few of dollars away from doubling up my initial investment. $AMD is finally coming out of its coma. $SOXX needs to catch up with $VOO for my YTD return. Tech looking good.
Went from 25k down in March to up now
if it wasn’t for buying at the very top of cciv
I would be balling
but I know fomo is going to hit with cciv.
I believe Hertz is coming back strong.
Any investment-savvy dudes (or women) know what's the better investment: high yield dividend stocks or high yield dividend ETF's?
If you're specifically looking for dividend income, either one can work. But there are a few considerations, like Hav said..
1 - Whether or not you have specific companies of high conviction (or use) that pay the dividend. The Walmarts, Exxons, the Verizons.
PROS: You will likely have better asset appreciation/ gains on top of the divvy..
CONS: The divvy can get lowered or removed all together, so you have to watch and be willing to move your money to another dividend payer if that time comes.
2 - Or if you want to set and forget and invest in an EFT like VYM or VIG
PROS: Passive and diversified. Won't have to watch it like a hawk to make sure it's still paying you a divvy.
CONS: Asset appreciation may be slower (but steadier?) and it will come with at least a small expense ratio
Nio is rising!!!!

Sounds like a plan.i usually go around july, august. next year if you're up to it, i will hit u up when i am going
Yes but if you had loss more than 3k in a year you can write off the extra loses the next year, your loses dont expire. You can also set yourself up as a business and write off expenses such as your computer, chair, etc.You can only write off a limited amount, $3k.
I hoped yall jumped in hertz, its up to like $26 share from $8
Funny, I was watching it a bit for the past week, but not keeping up with the news. Just read that they officially came up outta bankruptcy (today?) and the symbol changed.
Last time I checked the pps it was still under the bankruptcy symbol and around $8. It must've ran today.
