I don't think it's worth it, given how outdated the architecture is. I think someone tried years ago but never heard back.

I'd be happy to set up a new forum if there was any interest, though. The costs are pretty minimal these days.

I feel profitability is inevitable for them, especially with the footprint they own in Europe. They are a much bigger company than people give them credit for. They'll shake off any lawsuit thrown at them. This isn't a dying albatross like AMC or GME.

Time will tell though. It was originally a 20 share flyer of an investment, but there is a lot more research in to their fundamentals going on with gamma squeeze potential.

Just curious, has the recent stock movements and news changed your opinion of the stock's outlook?

I doubt anyone would be able to get through to Eddie or whoever is in charge of it. As far as starting a new site, that's been tried, with Manaloop or whatever it was, and you would have to put in some serious work.

I just cashed in my 6.50 shares today and took a quick 8% buck. With this much volitility, playing swings seems like the best play. If I had more balls, I would try options out. Im still new to the stock market, so I'm sticking to playing it safe. Still like WISH long a lot, but we may have a way to go to find a bottom. I'll keep swinging on it till we get there. In the meantime, I'm holding 150 shares.

That's good. Just make sure you look into the tax implication for swing trades.

edit: I was holding on to 250 shares of AMD for a couple months, made a few grand selling them at around $86, and then shot up to $110+.

I did buy some JPM and US Steel on the dip and made out like a bandit on those, but also went from up 10% to down 10% on Activision due to the lawsuit. Also had a couple hundred shares of INTC, which doesn't seem too hot at the moment...

I bought the dip on NVVE. If you believe that EVs are going to overtake the Combustion Engine in our lifetime, I recommend you take a look at this company and what they do. I can't see any major firm with an all electric fleet(think school buses, delivery vehicles, heavy machinery, etc) not equipping Vehicle to Grid technology. Best I have been able to tell by my research, it works. Now it's just a waiting game.

I use TD Ameritrade for all my trades. It loads up all tax info right up into my intuit for me at the end of the year. It's just a matter of tracking profits and losses at this point.

I'm also watching Rite Aid and PFGC looking for a good entry point on either

I believe in EV, but I am also skeptical in a lot of the EV companies, mainly because I have business relationships with a lot of clean energy/EV companies and see their struggles in a monthly basis if not weekly.

Having said that, I have a very small position in Ballard Power Systems that I am just YOLO-ing.

Yea, a lot of them are actually hoping for a buyout from the big boys. If you look at some of the EV companies financial reports, they have a lot of assets and cash on their balance sheet with next to no revenue on their income statements.

Without naming names, I was not able to get a $50,000 credit insurance coverage from a global insurance company for three EV/fuel cell companies with market caps of few hundred millions to a few billions dollars. None of the underwriters want to insure them and that sets off all the alarms.

Contrary to investing in EV, I was looking into putting some money back in January into car manufacturers that are lagging behind in EV, like Honda and Toyota. I figured they will catch up in the near future, but didn't find an entry point I liked, and now they have both gone up even more.

---

Put them in a larger box with A LOT of baking soda and seal it up. Change out the baking soda frequently to help absorb the smells. You could try stuff like dryer sheets but those just smask the smell. You could also try to seal up the cards with a cup of vinegar and then after a few days air out the cards but that may or may not be as effective as you'd like.

I'm selling some of mine on MKM. Excellent site. Lots of whiners about clouded foils or whatever the f that is. Foil is foil. I can't help it that the damn things fade or whatever.

Funny enough it looks like the Europeans are bigger whiners than the Americans. Who would've thought that?
