Ive been watching END for a while...wish i had bought a little while ago at sub 36

What's END? If you mean ENB, I think it's still a good buy, preCovid, it peaked at like $49-$50.

Wow, your uncle is the classic Wealthy Barber story. After a lifetime, $4M in today's coin is a decent nest egg. He did good.

Yeah... and his vision, looking at it retrospectively is nothing short of amazing.

He isn't exactly a tech person. Heck, he isn't even an investing person. He told me that he was in the basic electronics business like calculators, toys... etc

And when TSMC went public in the late 90s, he thought... they are making all those little black things in the very business he's in and he only sees the need of it growing. So he started buying.

And then it went up and started paying a bit of dividend... so he just kept on buying. He didn't even sell when Morris Chang (founder/ex-CEO of TSMC) went into retirement first time and the 2 co-CEOs kinda messed up the company... he just kept buying.

You're better off day trading NIO; there's a lot of entry points throughout these past few days. Recommend buying any price under $44 and selling around $46. Don't wait til $50, like me.

Hopefully the hype dies down soon lol.

I'll be holding my Tesla shares until after December.. Then I'll re-evaluate.
Tesla has been fun last month though.

I should've held onto TSM as it has been reliable this year, along with AMD.. :speechless:

TSLA finished strong today, glad I didn’t sell yet.

I got in on NIO at $25, not bad for my luck. My buddy got 1400 shares at $3, I wish he told me then. Damn

I'm in a stock group with several friends. One of them is super quiet, and we just assume because he's busy with work.

We've been talking about EV stocks and NIO for a good couple of weeks, and this dude out of the blue says he bought a bunch of NIO when it was $6.

We all went WTF? :suspicious:

TSLA is still doing well. Is it time to sell or keep holding?

The power of compounding your return!

I feel TSLA is going to be a great short down the road. The math doesn't add up to its valuation imo.

^^ My guess is that the growth of TSLA is incremental from here on end whereas the growh on NIO or XPEV can still be exponential. As a conservative move, you could sell half of your TSLA stocks and go in on NIO or XPEV and ride that wave to the peek.

caveat .. what do I know.

I'd probably hold.

When TSLA is added to the SP500, index funds will liquidate what TSLA is replacing and re-balance further bringing TSLA up more.

I think a reasonable expectation is $550 by EOY.

I had 1000 shares at $1.90ish... sold at around $2.15 I think? So far my biggest trading regret.

Anyone got XPEV or Li?

Had to go back pages and pages to hunt this down ... thank you for the tip! First stock that I ever bought with triple digit returns ... in three months! Only regret was playing a bit conservative and not putting more chips in. Of course, hindsight is 20/20.

Enjoy the EV sector rush. Not sure when the pullback will be, but I'm just enjoying the ride for now.

I currently have NIO and XPEV as the mainstays, but also have KNDI, CIIC, and FIII as speculative plays.

daaamn good for you. I bought right off the gate but since it wasn't moving much I sold to reinvest into other things.. If only I held for a bit longer lol:ahwow:

Nio has high potential! Going to leave it in, and come back in 5 years!

For other EV players such as NIO and XPEV, it's gonna be easier for their share to double as their market cap is relatively small comparing the TSLA, which is the industry juggernaut.

However, they do come with higher risk too. NIO was at near bankruptcy earlier this year if it wasn't for a last-minute deal with the Chinese gov't to move its HQ in order to receive a lifeline.

XPEV is what I perceive as a fundamentally flawed company. When its CEO is willing to walk the grey area for HR, he will also likely willing to walk in that same grey area for other aspects of the company.

If one were to invest x amount of money for a mid-long term such as 5yrs, I'd want something much more compelling. TSLA has the industry-leading scale, technology, brand value and world presence (NIO/XPEV are both China only company). I could easily see it becoming the next trillion dollar company.

And remember, TSLA is the leader in the same industry NIO and XPEV, with arguably the best team in the industry too. If things aren't going well for Tesla... it doesn't have to mean that Tesla is doing poorly, but rather the market is simply no longer crazy about EV industry as a whole, who do you think would fare better? The industry 800lbs gorilla or the chimps?

Yes, I'm TSLA shareholder so I'm biased AF... so take my comments with a grain of salt. But from an objective view to the EV sector, the risk among these players don't change regardless whether I'm a SH.

Well you also said you weren't into XPEV and the resulting investment to this point would have resulted in 250% Gain. I think it's impossible to try and understand how these investments relate to the fundamentals of the market or the quality of the company.

I had lunch with a good friend who manages a book worth a few hundred million and he laughed at the chart of XPEV saying that its almost the same story for any speculative play before a crash. But who knows, its impossible to tell

However, if their ugly ass cars are selling for say $70,000 USD per, and that initial report was them delivering 12,000. Their valuation is like 15,000 times earnings lol..

If one’s speculating, yes. It might make sense. However, for a stock that one is looking to “invest” for 5yrs, dump the money and forget it, I’d want something more stable.

If one’s actively monitoring, that’s another story.

For now, don't even try to impart any logic or explain the Stock Market ... NOTHING makes sense.

Agree. I sold FCEL a week and a half ago for a tidy profit and it just had a 300% run since then with no news lol

XPEV up 33% TODAY

Hahahah ffs..sold at 33 lol :(

Waiting for that blowoff top to go in on a put.
XPEV also has a relatively small float that can be easier to manipulated.

For such a farmer boy name XPENG should be aiming for the lowest denominator yet they want to go luxury EleGiggle

This is TLRY all over again.

You're concerned about the 'grey area' of the CEO of XPEV ??!! Is Musk an ethical angel ... haha ... ROFL l! They are all unethical AF! The reason why I didn't go in on TSLA is because of the looney at the helm (well, that and I waited too late!)
