Rants and WTF are you talking about and Coronavirus!

What the pee pee brothers don't get is the big picture. They're clearly too blinded by range and desire to one-up and denigrate to have any meaningful discussion or hammer out the facts. Their personal flaws and insecurities clearly shine through as they seem obsessed to make irrelevant points as to who did what first, bought this at what price, blah blah blah, while the point from the beginning, the actual point that matters, is that there is a charlatan masquerading as an investing expert while making cringey boastful posts about investment prowess while never ever indicating any losses. Complete red flag of a fraud.

After 2 world wars, from 1972 til 1990 , Germany used to almost always win at the end, defeating magic Oranje on 1974 and French dream team best ever on 1982. But now, they already lost their number 13 magic Bomber and yesterday their leader Kaizer, when guys with spirit like Karl Heinz Forster finished since long time. When one of my model to learn to play modern football was Rainer Bonhof, when now square feet Rudiger, or no spirit like Leroy Sane or Gnabry and Germany don t win anymore. Another time. Nevertheless, I remember Oranje romantism on 1974, versus Berti Vogt who should have been kicked out after 1 mn for his intentional fault on magic Johan Cruijff, but it was in RFA, West Germany when was the wall. To listen to Pink Floyd for the wall.

[QUOTE=Ararat;2883472]Dude,

Berkshire Hathaway owns much more than 5 stocks.

Or saves your worst picks. It's for a reason that global index funds are the safe choice.[/QUOTE]Buffet still said that in an interview once. 5 or 6.

[QUOTE=EscapeArtist;2883759]You're talking about investing to someone who doesn't have significant capital. He has no significant assets to protect nor does he have the ability to use large capital to produce significant gains. It's the mentality of someone looking from the bottom up so the only tools he has are those of desperation. I was guilty myself when I was in my early thirties playing catch up to my peers. Even in 2022 when most tech heavy investors took big hits, at least my defensive positions held and I was able to absorb the huge losses so that the 2023 rebound wiped them out. Things change when you acquire more capital, when you have families to support, or when you approach retirement and risk tolerance changes. Without any of those things, I have a feeling he took huge losses in 2022 but didn't have the ability to wait out the storm so now he still seems desperate to find ways to recover.[/QUOTE]I didn't hold any stocks in 2022.

Restarted in 2023 with Adobe.

I did trade a lot between 2009 and 2013 before I sold off and bought my apartment. Big wins and big losses, and high stakes. Even derivatives in raw materials and 5, 10,15 x trades. I run more safe now, thus 100% win rate so far. But as mentioned, not many trades yet.

[QUOTE=BobNSuzy;2883986]To be fair, it was probably Charlie Munger who is being loosely quoted. Also, if Charlie Munger or Warren Buffet were investing with smaller sums of capital they would invest in fewer companies. They have spoken to the issues of investing large sums of money in the market. One issue is that it moves the market. They would be totally different investors if they were investing less money. Not everyone is a stock analyst like they are, but that is a different point.[/QUOTE]Could have been Charlie as the interview had both in them, but I do think it was Warren.

Still, their definition of the amount of money needed to go beyond the 5/6 stocks is probably more than most of us have. And probably in the tens of millions. Unless we have it as a full time job.

[QUOTE=BobNSuzy;2883990]If someone follows something like the Motley Fool, they advise someone to own 20 stocks to achieve diversification. 20 can do the job of diversification. As far as poor people gambling and why they do it look no further than the popular example of poor people buying lottery tickets. Rich people do not buy lottery tickets. There is also a popular book called the Psychology of Money that has entered the Zeitgeist which is probably a German word, ha, ha.[/QUOTE]I hate Motley Fool! Why does it always pop up in my Google searches while I cannot even bash their half assed mediocre flawed analysis full of holes in them? I think there is an opportunity for a competitor to them. But what they do excel in is Google optimization.

[QUOTE=Ararat;2884035]I agree with what you're saying. What I reacted to in the previous post was a lottery winner, if we are to believe him, who pretended to be an expert.[/QUOTE]Not sure if you refer to me as a lottery winner. However, I do stand by my definition of the stock market just being a casino. But like with poker, there is always a layer of skill. Not everyone has it.

[QUOTE=Pessimist;2884228]CCP Dumbfuck. "A point no one was making"? Who is the shitworm that claimed "I bought Intel even before you did" as if being earlier gives you some primacy. You are a retard, alright!

Mad lib. Trump. Coming from this Asian shitBing midget. My advice: Stick to your shithole country's politics.[/QUOTE]He doesn't even get my initial point that buying early equates to loosing. And he still believes in 10 posts later. Retard is a soft word with him.

[QUOTE=EscapeArtist;2884339]Yes Mad Lib and Trumpian.

Surely you realize that the contents and pattern of your post indicates some form of Tourette's or being mental unhinged. Your obsession with me indicate an even deeper mental illness. My advice: 1. Deal with the fact that I'm a better American than you. 2. Get help bro.[/QUOTE]CCP shitbing. You are not and will never be an American. Your pathetic desperation to belong comes through but you will always be a CCP dungworm, taking orders from your cell leader MacShit. Even in your shitland, you must be particularly low on the hierarchy. There are millions of emigrants from China who did well. You OTOH are having to defecate in your rental car and living paycheck to paycheck.

[QUOTE=EscapeArtist;2883274]Oh probably something to do with Intel doubling from 2015 to 2020 with an additional 2.5 to 3.5 dividend yield, up to as much as 5% in late quarter of 2022, meanwhile reinvesting dividends and adding more to my my position when buying recent post pandemic crash, all amounting to an 11% annual rate of return the stock crashing 2 years ago and still besting the S&P500. So there's that.

Poor people look to pick hot stocks. People with actual capital have diverse portfolios that absorb down turns and profit during recoveries. You would know that if you understood simple compound interest and weren't an internet fraudster who desperately tries to con people into thinking that he is anything but worthless.

Key Red flags:

1. Only disclosing wins but never losses.

2. Ugly, broke guy who claims to date super models.[/QUOTE]Retarded piece of CCP shit.

From the end of 2015 to end of 2023, inclusive of reinvested divi, INTc was up 82%, S&P 500 169%, SoX 617%.

From the beginning of 2015 to end of 2023, INTC returned 78% (incl reinvested dividends), S&P 500 173% and SOX 605%.

These are straight from Bloomberg terminal.

This MurseShit Bing just makes up numbers (as he fabricated owning Intel in the first place. This dung worm can't even afford a hotel room when in Germany).

It's funny how he conveniently referenced Semis and AMD as comparisons for Intel in the last month of 2023 but compared to S&P 500 for the period from 2015 to now when he claims to have owned Intel.

Not that it matters. He didn't own anything other than the shit stuck to his face, in 2015 or 2023 or any other time.

If anything, INTC returns would be even worse if not for the $15 upswing since October 2023. In that sense, it's hilarious that this shit fucker trashes INTC returns in the last few months but proudly brags about owning INTC since 2015.

There is a reason this shitface works for MacShitXing as a lowly sidekick.

As always, you show you're just some guy who thinks he has it all figured out when forgetting obvious details, maybe because your blind rage for little old me. You keep trying to make points that no one was making.

1. Criticism was regarding how ridiculous it is for the the OP to brag about 1 month Intel gains when an SP500 semiconductor ETF (XSD for example) outpaced it it during the time frame. Seems that you purposely ignore such an obvious criticism when you brag about gains of a stock when it underperforms the blue chip etf within it's own sector. If you can't see why intel is compared to it's own sector, then well, you're more hysterically blinded by rage towards me than even I would have thought. I feel like I'm debating a Trumpy, antivax, flat earther.

2. I have yet to brag about a stock because that's is my original criticism in the first place: bragging on stock picks, how tacky. I did however answer yours and the other pee pee questions when asked.

I see you went through the trouble of gathering intel versus SP500 8 year rate of return. Too bad no one said investing in intel was better than investing in S&P 500 over the past 8 years. I did however state that my personal rate of return investing in intel was 11%, outpacing the S&P returns over that time. You do realize that increasing and lowering positions is a thing right? A person's actual rate of return differs from the the asset rate of return when they increase and decrease their positions right? You considered that before you went through the trouble of making this post right? Right? Or did you write your entirely long post, supporting your facts, in a field you primarily earn your dollars without factoring all the details? Oopsies.

I will admit that I was a bit off as S&P yields were closer to 12% annual so my personal return was slightly lower. See that? I admitted a mistake. Things well adjusted people do. Not closet Trumpers who are too arrogant to ever admit fallibility.

3. The rest of the post was the same old Tourette's same old. Stop being so obsessed with me dude. It's not healthy. It's a creepy sickness that you can't let it go, you uptight little man.

[QUOTE=Pistons;2884800]1. Buying too early is the same as loosing money.

2. The only stocks I've written about here are stocks where I first wrote when I bought them. Thus the rest of your post is flawed.

3. You are too dumb of a guy to waste bandwidth on.[/QUOTE]Once again, no logic. You seem to think you make sense but it does not. If your claim is that you've only invested in 2 stocks and win big on both then well, perhaps you should just stop while you're ahead.

You make blanket points that use personal claims as facts. Well only a fool would believe you. Will keep citing supermodel claim is it seems to be the most hilarious claim of all. But the denial is even funnier as I can just keep reference, since you know, you keep getting caught up in that lie.

Anyway, it's not believable that a person seems to time the market completely correctly every time, especially over the past 3 years, not taking any losses, getting out at the most perfect time, not holding any stock assets at all for losses in 2022, then just happens to pick 2 stocks with 2 stocks winning positions at just the right time. Yeah, sure. And I'm a championship cyclist winning a Formula 1 race in an old Audi while making hookers orgasm in the front seat with my 12 inch cock.

Oh brother. The mental illness I see here in guys like you. I do appreciate the posters like you though. You all give me the chance to talk trash to trash humans who deserve it.
