What about UWTI?

[SiRV]

TSLA gonna be a good buy soon

[Hondaracer]

buy into TSLA? looking pretty appealing to me as well right now

[Nlkko]

That's what the GOOGL and FB guys said. It's a good buy they said.

Both of these had solid ER and forward-guidance.

The only thing I would long right now is gold.

I agree Nikko. The markets don't have a great outlook. I'm wondering if we will see a crash this year or drawn out bear rallies with lower highs and lower lows.

[Nlkko]

Every single rally this year has been led by $USO. Remember I said about old leaders are leaving. FANG stocks have not led any rally so far and have been the ones keeping the market down. I would be weary putting money in high P/E (momo) stock like TSLA. This is not momo market. Investors are very conservative and they won't be parking their money in high P/E tech stocks. Funny, last earning, TSLA almost dived to sub 100 if was not for the questionable promise of delivery this year. If they don't make that guidance, expect the stock to get completely wrecked if the market has not recovered by then.

Commodities are the leaders now. Utilities sector has been solid. Financials have been a dumpster but it did lead the latest rally (Feb 12). Currently, players are positioning for upside based on OI interest. However, I would tread carefully with the banks. If you recall, Lehman, Bearstern have countless rally before they went boom. Nothing goes straight up or down.

Bulls want a crash. A crash made things very easy and desirable. We go to the toilet in a day (or two) and then we go up up up. A multi months bear market is treacherous with the chops, many many vicious rally and dump triggered by panic buy/sell.

My 2 cents worth.

The banking system is like a overheating nuclear reactor, especially in Europe!
Toxic junk bonds warned us and still lots of oil industry bonds/derivatives.. most of any remaining price hedges are expiring.

I wonder if internet security stocks will pop again. I am a fan of owning a portion of gold and silver as a safety hedge against systemic implosion. Also certain real estate products.

As ugly as it sounds Alberta might be a good case study for the rest of the country looking forward if things really take a turn for the worst. There will be opportunity in the Alberta real estate at some point along with the obvious dirt cheap oil.

BBD purchased. We'll see how this risky ride runs out.

What is your take on oil prices and oil related investments?

Have we seen the bottom of the oil price drop?

UWTI uses forward contracts based on the price of oil. When oil prices goes up, UWTI goes up.


Business Description:
The investment seeks to replicate, net of expenses, three times the daily performance of the S&P GSCI Crude Oil Index ER. The index comprises futures contracts on a single commodity and is calculated according to the methodology of the S&P GSCI Index.

Is this a worthwhile investment over a 5 year term?

UWTI went to over 662 dollars in February 2012. It is currently trading at less than $1.70.

[learn2manual]

TCK look at it go! Hope some of you jumped on!

[Nlkko]

Sold $TCK call before a 20% zip day. Lol. Got 6 points profit instead of a 5 baggers. SMH

$UWTI is a 3x leveraged ETF. You trade them daily, not for holding or investing. They are designed to go to 0.

[Euro7r]

Wow. Missed the boat on TCK....

[JDMDreams]

Tck too high? Or still has room to go? Or gonna wait a week and everything flops back down?

[IMASA]

I got f'd hard by UWTI and UGAZ last year. Know what you're getting into. With these leveraged commodities, you pretty much have to be able to watch the prices at all times during the trading day, know when the weekly reports come out and also be able to trade premarket/after hours.

[Nlkko]

TCK again ahahahhahah. Solid miner.

[1.7El_guy]

I still holding TCK. muahahahaha................

Spoiler!

Bought at $13.00

[DGN23]

Been enjoying the TCK run. Be interesting to see what happens March 1st; hopefully good news. Also having a good run with Supreme. Inspection is complete, just waiting to hear the approved word come out. Should be a solid jump at that time...hopefully.

UWTI up 20% in the last 5 trade days. Definitely something you have to watch carefully so you don't lose your ass but just have a number you're comfortable going in with and make sure you set a number that you want to get out at. It can have big runs. Last year from tail end of March to mid June it went up almost 80%. Some decent sized swings during that time sure, but if your a well disciplined investor there is money to be made. Especially at this stage of the game. Far more room to go up than down at this point and I'd say we're hovering above the bottom if not scraping it. Could be a good time to get in if you're a risk taker.

Take that advice with a grain of salt, I am not a professional investor. Just my opinion.

[SiRV]

My numbers:

I'll go in HEAVY on:
- TCK if it hits $5 again
- TSLA if it hits $100
- XUS if it hits $25

I'll go in MODERATELY on:
- XRE if it hits $13
- XIC if it hits $17
- ZEO if it hits $8

[Nlkko]

TSLA actually had a chance at low 100s last ER if it wasn't for some questionable forward guidance with delivery number.

The play (leaders) so far this year:

- Miners (gold, silver, copper, etc.)
- Precious metal (GLD)
- Facebook: the only high-flyer that preserve some strength and see repeated buy from big money.

[Hondaracer]

Any thoughts on TCB (taseko) ?

A lot of their stuff is tied into mining but their holdings long term could look tempting
