What's everyone's thoughts on the future of pharmaceutical stocks? I'm a rookie to investing overall, got in at a nice time on one pharmaceutical and am up 70% from when I bought in the spring (wish I would have put more in, but what can ya do). My general rule is to only hold stocks I believe will be bigger in 3 years then they are now. I know you can't time the market, but at what point do you leave the table on something that's so tied to the current COVID situation?

Invest in something less volatile. You’re gambling.

how do I know? I’ve lost tens of thousands in them.

Yield curve rising on higher growth and higher inflation expectations.

I'm expecting unemployment to remain around 5.0% - 6.0% for the next two years. With growth peaking at 2.5% on an annual basis. Inflation could remain around 3.0% but could hit as high as 5.0%.

The last few weeks have basically followed the same pattern. Market is up for most of the week, then pulls back on Friday. I freed up some cash yesterday in anticipation of this. So I'm going to be looking for some good opportunities to buy today.

That's concerning to me. In March, we saw the same thing, 5 consecutive weeks of sell offs on Friday, till the big drop. At the same time however yeilds were falling not rising.

Sweet, my Blackberry just jumped big over the past hour. Down all day, suddenly up about $1. Up 30% since I bought it Monday.

Might bail soon.

GME now down to +$20. It peaked at +$33.

It was a steady climb all morning, then pop. Big buys during lunch.

AMC and Blackberry did the same lunchtime pops.

Was worth around 0.65 cents 10 minutes ago. 100% profit if sold now.

Current holdings, most of these are short-term except AUPH, VTI, SPY, and PLTR.

Not sure what I'm doing with CRM, FSR, PSTH just yet (swing or hold).

TDAC and TDACW probably just swinging, target is $20 on the commons, $4-5 on the warrants

Up approx 38.0% on REGI, ytd. I don't think its worth the value anymore. Only catalyst I can see is they announce a hefty greenplan.

If you guys want a risky pharma pick, I might dip into Athira Pharma. They got nothing right now except some phase 2 alzeimers drug shit or something.

They IPO'ed in Sept I think rode up from $15 to $35, then dropped to $25. Then just released news of more shares at $22.50 two days ago. It's now at $20.

I might dip in for a dumb bounce Monday. Just hope it rebounds to $25 and get out.

I sold at $64 🤷🏻‍♂️ You think it’s going higher?

Edit: I wish I’d been able to sell at $73 but the trading halt ruined that.

Hard to say.

Think there is a reality where it goes higher and maybe holds, definitely see a reality where it drops. You did the smart move selling and getting the tendies. Still means you got paper hands.

Small groups and investors who recognize a short squeeze. (edit: And retards along for the memes who won't get out at the right time.) The stock was undervalued previously and with the coming generation of consoles coming out Hedgefunds shorted the stock heavily thinking the demise of retail combined with the pandemic as well as next gen being hyper digital focused would spell the end for GameStop. So they bought the idea that GameStop would drop like a rock and die. Other invested saw the massive trend to short the stock and the actual financials of the company which aren't bad (lots of profitable stores, lots of cash on hand, new board, etc) and decided to squeeze the hedgefunds and put them up against the wall.

The stock is rocketing up due to the short squeeze and nothing more. At this point the stock shouldn't be overpriced longer than a short period but the stock is being undervalued by hedgefunds who hold a lot of shorts and that means there is room to fuck them and get tendies.

Based off gains on BB and VGAC, portfolio at all time high. Cant believe it.

Such as heated and overpriced market. But in order for a market dump, there's always a catalyst.... global mortages crisis, dot com bust, covid etc....

Whats the key catalyst to tank the market???? Any?

The short was working. The stock during the covid meltdown dropped to about $3. Then it slowly rebound to $5-10. Then MS gabbed about it partnering so it rose to around $20. Then bam. $30. Now closed at $65.

Assholes.

I bought GME at around $13 in summer 2018 hoping Sycamore buy out rumors were true. The stock rose and dropped and a second Sycamore rumour came out. Nothing. I bailed with a loss of about $2/share as I gave up waiting.

Nobody would have guess it would hit $65.

At the time Sycamore buyout rumours were in the $20-25 range tops. I was hoping just for a $20 buy out.
