most likely guided down on future earnings/revenue/etc for balance of year...but just pure guess as I have not looked into it...

That ominous...'ding'...when your TOS order fills. Looks like I'm the proud new owner of some GOOG at 190
POWL just announced they're raising their dividend
Whelp, despite this post, I let someone else talk me into a bull case. Ended up getting stopped for a small loss. And there she goes..Heineken-Ashi said:
FMC - Topped in 2022 and setting up the next huge move down. Bear flagging
Sorry, bud, looks like this has turned into a long term hold for me...I'm guessing when I need the money in 10 years it'll be worth more than I bought it for.zgolfz85 said:just get me to 132....yes, can't believe that's my cost basis there. Sometimes I'm very dumb. This was never designed to be a LT hold for me....Heineken-Ashi said:
AMD is going to beat and move up. That's not the question. The question is, will it be able to finally sustain? Resistance is $127 and then $140. Either level can reject it back down to new lows. Through $140 with a constructive structure (non-overlapping), and we might finally have something.
If by some add chance they don't beat, all bets are off.

I sold most for a loss, wasn't too bad though. I only had 15 shares left
Live to fight another day
I tagged you but this is for everyone that is in POWL.
Keep in mind that POWL is a microcap company:
They declared their quarterly dividend AH and raised it. The miniscule amount isn't the story that's important. The fact that corporations do not raise their dividends unless business is strong. Imho, this is a solid sign regarding POWL's earnings and future.

You'd assume so. It's hard for me to understand a company's plan with dividends. For instance, POWL seems to be following the Phillip Morris or Exxon philosophy of always increasing the dividend every 4 quarters. Those companies haven't always had great earnings releases.ProgN said:

Other companies like CWH are all over the place with dividends and they change nearly every quarter.
Understood, but find me another microcap that has an actual PE, no debt, positive earnings growth, expanding operations and Blackrock, Vanguard, & State Street have large positions in.
ETA: Comparing PM or XOM to a microcap is like comparing ATM to sip.

Torm plc is a closer comparison, but they got a ton of debt.......ProgN said:

Hey, I've made money on POWL multiple times. If I still had the shares I bought at $79 last January I'd be even happier instead of bouncing in and out.
It's odd to me that the div increase barely moved the needle AH, even odder is a company with $2.8B in market cap is considered micro cap.
I had a metal fab business in Houston before retiring, selling out and moving out, we did a lot of business with POWL.
I'm all over this one.

"All over this one", meaning a buyer or avoiding POWL?

I bought back my Feb 350cc this afternoon
Man I really don't know how to answer that. I'm not about to give advice or make recommendations on here, I am the least of these I assure you. There are plenty of people on here that are clearly very good at what they do, read what they post and do your dd. Good luck!
Schwab ranks AMD with an F. POWL not much better with a D.
The last few weeks I have only purchased A rating stocks on Schwab, same with their recommendation on ELF.
Seems to be working quite nicely.
As someone mentioned a few days ago, going at it alone just doesn't work for investors like me.
AMAT has a ranking of A.
Per Schwab
AMAT appears to be consolidating within a longer term downtrend. Shares are presently below the 200-day moving average, which is falling along with the 10-day moving average. However, the Average Directional Index, or ADX, is below 20, indicating that shares have exhibited sideways movement recently. Comparative Relative Strength analysis shows that this issue is outperforming the S&P 500.

Arbitrary letter grades are definitely the way to go.

I'm happy that you're taking control of your investments because that is really what's most important, but you haven't discovered the Holy Grail of investing. Schwab is a regulated platform and has in house advisors. They cannot present aggressive ratings due to liability. If you only focus on their 'A' rated stocks, then you're essentially buying a mutual fund without the management fees.PA24 said:

I doubt the "24" in your handle was the year you graduated from A&M because your account started many years before that. You decide what type of investor you are that fits well for you, but don't discount the approach of others that are looking for more. $CLS has a 'C' rating on Schwab, but I posted last week that I was buying it under $90/shr. My approach combines fundamental, backed up by technical analysis. Is my approach superior? No, but it works for me to achieve much better returns than mutual funds.

Solid reply
PLTR valuation seems crazy to me. More than double LMT market cap and over 500 PE
And it has a D on Schwab
I don't care - a,b,c,d,f just make me some money!!

$UBER $GOOGL - UBER: TO LAUNCH WAYMO ROBOTAXIS EXCLUSIVELY ON UBER APP IN AUSTIN

Got a shareholder vote notification from MARA this morning. The board wants an increase to 800,000,000 from 500,000,000 for shares of common stock. Who in their right mind would vote to dilute their shares that much?

You know it's at or near the end of the bull cycle when the miners aggressively dilute and leverage.
How do the big institutions that hold most the vote generally think when voting on such requests?
Not sure. Institutions own 49%. So technically they can be overcome by unanimous retail vote.flashplayer said:

Welcome to 2024-25
Tons of stocks overvalued by historical standards. The strong bid won't change, until this bull market sentiment changes.
I guess the market sees PLTR taking all the market share, in the same way they see CVNA dominating the future used car market. Huge premium for those outcomes.
Today might be the first time ever that I listen to a Disney earnings call. Trying to find out what time that is lol. I bought 500 calls at the $5 strike for $0.11 yesterday hoping they mention FUBO quite a few times. FUBO picked up steam recently again so hoping to ride this baby to $6…

Keep in mind this is mostly a trading thread, with a lot of technical analysis folks, so long term ratings by the big houses may not be as useful
