thegeneral 2,889 Posted August 3, 2023 AAPL and AMZN earnings tonight I’ll go AAPL miss…AMZN hit people freak out regardless and both take a hit. People looking for any reason to trim after this crazy run up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nobody 2,557 Posted August 3, 2023 AAPL always hits earnings. Then everyone calls it a miss, the stock drops after hours and then they get valued properly. The only time they go up on earnings is when they announce huge buybacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easilyscan 858 Posted November 27, 2023 Many stocks did crash. Check out a five-year chart for stocks like Generac, Paypal, Wayfair, Roku, etc. By the time interest rates bottomed out in 2021, those & countless others were selling @ absolutely insane multiples. Any poor souls who bought those, will be waiting a long, long time to get back to even. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any poor souls who bought those, will be waiting a long, long time to get back to even. Example of the bubbles that can build up when interest rates are kept artificially low for an extended period. The first chart is an ETF managed by Cathie Wood, who specifically invested in momentum companies like these. She was the newest darling of Wall Street, right up until interest rates started the move back to more historically normal levels. I hope Jerome Powell keeps his foot firmly planted on the neck of inflation until it's dead. Keep rates at current levels at least 2 more years. https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEQKOQL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two years ago I already moved all my mutual funds to bonds just before the crash when Covid started and oil went up, maybe a day late on that actually. So I had mostly bonds already but all mutual funds I was investing in for the last two years I set up late last night and moved all to bonds and all future investments to bonds. Then I just found this article when I googled "stock market bubble" https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/warren-buffett-indicator-211-percent-stock-market-bubble-asset-crash-2022-1 On 1/24/2022 at 3:10 PM, vomit said: Yes, unless you need it.
