I'm indirectly in the business of carbon capture. DAC is the least competitive solution out there due to CAPEX $/ton CO2 captured. Other technologies are more advanced, well proven, and less costly.

When did Buffet start layering into OXY? We're just now back to the top of a $10 trading range dating back to Jan 2023 on that one. Could break out from here (I would prefer a bit of a pullback and then a moon rocket), could break lower back into the range. Point being, following him could fail to pay off for a long time. He's a long term investor. When he finds something he likes, he starts to buy.


I sold at $67 and will enter in again if it trends down. If not, I'll take my 20% and move to the next one
It's broken out from it's triangle. Just like with XLE, XOP, and many other energy charts, I'd like to see it come back a bit before exploding. I'm looking for $64 for next entry if today was a top of sorts.


If you are willing to be long O&G there are still lots of good plays. Despite whatever rhetoric you may hear, fossil fuel demand isn't going anywhere anytime soon. And the lack of capital investment in the space over the last several years is going to catch up. Consolidation is happening as it needs to but it's happening at very accretive levels with less risk than some previous cycles where some targets were heavily debt laden. Several companies are printing money and if you are willing to hold, there are some attractive dividend plays that IMO have almost zero risk of cutting or reducing that dividend. I don't see these plays having rocket ship potential like some tech or AI. But when the overall pullback happens, they won't be hit as hard, will survive being drug down like everyone else and will still be providing an attractive dividend.
Your post makes me think that you've done your research on the O&G sector, if I'm wrong tell me. If I'm right, start following POWL and if it hits $120 or better, then jump in. If your time horizon isn't short term, then you can buy it here. POWL is very engrained with O&G, but they've been expanding their into products into other industries.


I'll take a look at them. I already missed the latest jump and want to understand their plans vis a vis capital and debt. If they don't have much leverage and aren't a regularly capital intensive business I'd be curious why their yield is pretty low.

As for research, I'd say I research in general, including lurking here, as I enjoy investing. Have some personal experience working with O&G so have some insight there, as well as some public and private investments. But just generally enjoy information from many sources and use that to inform my decisions.

And I'll echo some sentiments here that this market doesn't make sense to me and I expect a pretty big reversal at some point in the near future. I'm more cash/liquid heavy than I've been in awhile, which is not my typical MO.

I am doing the same- keeping more cash on hand ready to pounce once the inevitable correction comes

also have been rebalancing in my personal brokerage lightening up on ETFs and sector trackers and instead going more overweight for individual tech/AI stocks

Like with most ESG initiatives, right know your best hope for a profitable return is to go start a business around this that a major is willing to buy just to sell their ESG story. It doesn't even have to be profitable. Proof of concept businesses are getting some of this. But as a third part investment these are really only private opportunities right now.

I bought back my $9 premium, $160 put I sold a couple weeks back, for $3.30. Wanted to get closer to 100% of the premium, but now that it's bought back, TSLA is free to run.

GDX and SLV are the main two I'm heavily allocated in. GDX is still a laggard here. It's starting to break out. I'd like to see it come back to $29 one more time before REALLY breaking out, but no guarantee it will happen.

When metals start running, they can tend to have smaller pullbacks than expected and large extensions to the upside.

I'm torn on URA. I think Uranium demand will be up for the near future, but the miners in the uranium space just don't usually have the same bullish reaction like silver, gold, and copper miners do when the metal runs hot. Look at DNN for example. The companies in the space just aren't historically well run. But I'm certainly no expert. If anyone else has key insights, I'd focus on them over me.

And I decided to go back with my original thesis, that the put sale is for lowering my basis, and if I end up with the shares with the stock dipping to $150, I'm ok with it. So with that, I just sold a June $160 for $10.40.

Riding the wheel baby.

Was doing some research on the uranium miners the other day. The problem many of them have on capitalizing on increased uranium spot prices is that they are locked into long-term contracts with a lot of their buyers since you can't really go uranium shopping very easily for new sources.

There are some uranium companies like UEC who are not locked in to long-term deals, and are better positioned to take advantage of the upward fluctuating prices. UEC has bought up a lot of uranium at much lower prices than current price and is supposed to have a lot of mining projects underway that are not yet producing or profitable but are expected to sequentially come online between late this year through 2027. In my mind, it's more of a high risk high reward proposition because if things go well for them getting extraction going, there's no reason they shouldn't rip pretty high. But if they get bogged down and the price of uranium stays flat, I wouldn't expect that investment to work out very well.

I sold my UEC shares today when it hit 7.65 after it made a quick 10%-15% move after I bought it around a week or so ago. If it holds at that level or creeps up to 8 and uranium continues going up I will get back in hoping for a longer bull run. If it falls back close to 7.00 or less will get back in to play for another bounce.

Ok, got a trade opportunity. Risk will be premium paid. I am not saying it's likely, but if IWM is to show one more move up, this could pay very well.

Eyeing the IWM April 17th $209 calls. Ideal entry would be IWM $204.50, but it might not come back down to there. $205.50 is the highest I would go to engage these. The calls should be around $1.50-$2.00 a piece there. The target is IWM $215-$215.50, which would pay around $4-$5 per contract or around 300-350% total return.

Watching closely.

I think you might be asking the wrong question regarding POWL. POWL is a microcap that pays a dividend, and has a PE ratio, meaning they're profitable. Blackrock is also their largest shareholder. I'd ask you, how many microcap stocks have you seen that have all that?

POWL: Anyone who's on this thread occasionally watched the run from $70's to $190. You've mentioned $120 as a re-entry point. What about that number interests you?

I've been following this for a long time now and if you pull up a 2 yr chart on it, you'll see something the stock has repeated 3 times. They spiked after those ER, but that spike the day after each ER became the new baseline support. I'm not saying they'll repeat it again, buttttt, I'm only $14 away. It spike to $120 the day after their last ER. If this market would even pullback 5%, then I'm confident that I'll get it at $120 or lower. I may not pick the bottom but it's a better entry than buying it at $190 like some did because of FOMO. It has a very, very small float so a violent selloff in the macro markets should crush it pretty bad, even if it's only for one day. If I'm right, then I will take advantage of that fear and happily buy a great company and a hell of a discount. It's potential is more than worth my patience and discipline.

I'll research them further. Appreciate you putting them on my radar. They seem a little bigger than a micro cap at 1.6b, but we may be splitting hairs on definitions. My only concern would be whether the current price is priced to perfection given Q1 results and whether I've missed the entry. But if they consistently beat, maybe not. Given the low liquidity I'd also be wary of large swings if there is any negative news coming off the Q1 results and guidance.

I've actually followed a couple of small cap companies with BR in the investor base that pay a nice yield. Im just not as familiar with POWL. They seem to have a lot of cash and little debt. Just curious their plans for growth and what they will use the cash for.

You can definitely play the swings both ways. And you are smart enough to have some stops in place with a volatile stock if that's your play. I made that mistake very early in my investing career in the dotcom era. I just need to understand my strategy with a stock and whether I'm playing a swing or plan to weather those because I believe in the long term.

Appreciate all the info. I'll do some DD and reply back. Since it's on my radar, I'd prefer not to add it to my "Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda" portfolio managed by Hindsight Capital.

KHC - Has a chance to break out through a 2-year semi-sideways downtrend channel soon with earnings in May. Once this one breaks $40, it could get robust quickly. I've got target range $50 - $70 by year end if it does. It hasn't been above $49 since December 2018, so definitely not a sure thing. But inflationary prices could be the driver here. Stop is $34. Ideally it wouldn't drop below $36 again, so if you are more cautious you can put a stop in the $35's.

I had moved my stop up and got stopped out a while back. Draw a trendline of recent lows on daily candles (Dec and Mar lows). You don't want to see it break below that. And yes, I'd be looking for $37-$41.


Guna go on a little tangent on this but I think this is a good example of everyone needs to do their own research. I like Heineken and have met him In person. Great dude and wants to help people learn. Much smarter than me. But sometimes I feel he speaks in absolutes. and nothing in the market is absolute. Everyone need to have discipline and use all of this as educational commentary.

I think Heineken would agree with this. Make sure you have a plan before entering any play.

Heineken I hope you don't take this as bashing or a slight but it's just been an observation over the last month or so.
