Is the model T breaking down?
No it closed holding the 8 day and well above the 21. After a big move like that needs a breather. Handling it the same it has the past 4 breakouts. If it loses about $0.71 then Houston we may have a problem.

This is just my 2 cents but I am not touching it until those aspects break down. It may be days/weeks before another breakout but I expect at least a few days of basing again.

Again just my redneck turned hillbilly view anyway.

TUSUX is a pennystock I wouldn't touch. Very speculative.

I help my parents manage their investment accounts and they are dividend investors. Their goal was to generate $20K to $25K per year in pure dividend income without touching the principle that they could use to travel and enjoy retirement. With this type of strategy, you're not really looking at sexy stocks, you are looking at bigger name dividend aristocrats that typically don't have much volatility, and consistently pay/raise their dividends each year. Obviously, you are looking at higher dividend yields too. Here's some pretty stable companies that pay nice dividend yields that we've had success with:

AT&T (T)
Chevron (CVX)
Coca Cola (KO)
Dominion (D)
Iron Mountain (IRM)
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)
Magellan Midstream Partners (MMP)

With that said, I can't help myself but to mix in a few growth names, so they've been fortunate with $AMZN and $NVDA (in 2016) and $ROKU (in 2019).

How do you guys go about buying long term hold stocks that pay dividends? Example, I'm looking to branch out the portfolio after messing around with some of these higher volatile stocks as long term holds.

Home Depot has my attention as an option that pays dividends out and I see as a long term hold.

Just seeing if anyone cares much about dividends anymore and how you go about them.

just a thought-

you could look at dividend focused ETF's especially if ur looking for diversification to reduce risk.

I am into DON, SPHD, and SCHD for some. Those will be longer term holds for me that I will add to as the years go on. consistent growth with the market plus higher than average dividend payments.

I do like southwest as a long term hold that pays a decent dividend as they are trying to branch out to more international travel and the stock is still depressed due to covid and at&t is one of the "dividend aristocrats". UPS i think is also a good long term hold that pays a decent dividend. can't go wrong with coca cola- large stable company.

nothing revolutionary in any of those...but might be what ur looking for?

edit- the poster above had many of the same ideas. his take is good.

Take a look at the 1 Minute after hours and you will see a looooong wick all the way down to the $0.71 number I had pegged. Just a flash. Stop hunters maybe? I would have set s top loss about 3% below that if I was using them on it just so I didn't get caught in that scoop up.

CNBC had a graphic a couple of days ago talking about this last quarter, and how companies that beat on both lines have declined in price after earnings, while those that missed on both have increased in price after earnings. Totally counterintiutive.

He's been saying for awhile that he wants to get Blue Origin going in the right direction.

I think he is tired of SpaceX kicking his ass.

Normally a handle dropping below the midway of the cup would indicate a failed pattern, but that's a big recovery back to the breakout levels so who knows.

Makes perfect sense. Most of the price is based on "future" expectations. Since Amzn killed it the price had already built up to that expectation. Thus, earnings call confirms and folks got what they "expected".

For the losers that went up in price, it is because they reset "expectations"! You were a loser, but now that you lowered the bar and the vaccine is out we now "expect" you to have better earnings in future quarters.

See, it is simple!!!



PS. I have zero idea what I'm talking about.

So the two flies I put on AMZN are for next week

3450/3550/3650 for $10

and

3800/3900/4000 for $1

The latter was in case they announce a split. The first was if they put up good numbers. A slow steady climb may still put that one in reach.

He's gotta loooooooong row to hoe on that one. SpaceX is so far in front of him right now that Blue Origin is pretty much just an afterthought (lunar lander contract not withstanding).

Id say so
I originally typed this in wrong, but $DRH also appears to have a cup and handle. Never heard of the company though. Not much volume since early December. Also seems to have higher bases of $0.20 each recently.

May have to watch this one the next few days and see how it acts.

A couple things:

  • This is why I don't hold into earnings. I am so glad I sold that vertical this morning. Some of you probably thought I was crazy
  • Andy Jassy is an absolute genius. I had the opportunity to talk with him for about 30 minutes at AWS reinvent a couple of years ago. Amazon is in good hands
  • This means Amazon is tripling down on cloud/media/other tech services.

Danaher. Picked up a bunch of the distressed BUs from GE.

GE hired a guy from Danaher to be their CEO and I guess that connection paid off.

Up $65, 2% after hours.

Looks like the initial pricing reaction was 'WTF, Bezos leaving", now it's "oh, the AWS guy running this thing? Revenue going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
