Your big bets for 2019-2020?

I think within a couple of years commodity prices will start to rip, could take 5 years. I don’t know much about oil or oil stocks but I’m going to build some basic knowledge over the next week and get poitioned. Almost nobody thinks oil can rip from here except maybe Peter Schiff as he always thinks it will. Oil has been written off and oil stocks are considered dead. They say Tesla and EV will take over the world. But not so fast.

Some of these oil stocks are so beaten down. Reminds me of gold/silver miners in winter of 2015/2016. Just the decent miners went up 300% within 8 months.

Stock market. I'm getting a lot of promos for 5g. As all the sheep buy into it, I will be loking to short all companies thats in the 5g sectors. Buy the rumor, sell the news. I see huge gains, microsoft type gains if you keep your eye on these stocks..

I've been watching btc myself. Actually had a few successful scalping plays as of late. Its important to play both sides of it though which a lot of people don't do. They just want to "buy low and sell high" like most amatuer traders. I see bit coin spiking this summer when criminals cash. G/r will be even bigger when they cycle it back off i.e the big gap down.

Invest in BTC.

Trade altcoins. Don't marry them.

The halving is coming, yes, and it's been moving.

@amancipator well done sir.

Was discussing a pharma last night, guy mentioned Amarin...said they got FDA approvals and tapping the cholesterol problem.

Still riding SHOP from IPO, average out 450 and beyond...will look at BTC at that point to flip to.

Obviously market is a charade right now w/ the what central banks are doing....

Amarin is already too big for my tastes, prefer to play sub 2B MC biotech, as I try to look for the 3-4X baggers.

If they can get the lawsuit dealt with and further FDA label approvals, I do see it doubling to 12B MC if they go alone, doctors seem comfortable with prescribing it.

BP buyout though? That should be the end goal, $20B in that case...

Also in on BTC for the year, US weed stocks (GTI, CURA, Acerage via CGC), I got lucky offloading the Canadian tickers OCT18, I knew regulations/Canadian governments were gonna fuck it up, CGC was the only one kept after trimming, trimmed again to purchase more retail players like Alcanna and F&F.

It's a hedge against the Dems winning 2020 somewhat, even if they lose, I'll be holding until the inevitable legalization, they got dragged down by the Canadian players.

How do you even research this stuff?

All the money I made in the market I made years ago by buying tech stocks. Like, that was just my strategy. Tech was going crazy, I work in tech, so I bought tech. Sold too quickly, usually.

Things like 2B vs 12B market caps, finding the news about these niche companies... how do people do it?

I read a lot. I also work at a successful tech co so I'm always looking at what companies we are partnering with, what our c-levels are buying, and which companies have a big presence at trade shows etc...

That was basically my strategy. But "strategy" is overstating it, I was just going on my gut with what seemed like a successful company. And I had the benefit of the market going nuts the past ten years. I wish I'd gotten in on Shopify, I used them at a past job even.

But other stuff, like "Here's some tiny pharmaceutical research company in Latvia that's applying for a patent on x and there are rumors of them acquiring/being acquired by y, might pop 1000%" that seems like a full time job finding all that stuff. They say advisors are bullshit, you're better off just tracking the market, but people here seem to be outperforming, so I dunno. Should I give my money to some dude and tell him to add a zero to the end? Or just do what I used to do, have a portfolio of 3-6 things that either I think are "good" knowing their products and commodity (like water, O&G, etc) that smarter people than me (or maybe just morons with a column on Motley Fool) say are solid?
