Shall we talk about investing?

[Botnake]

Do not just invest because you have the financial capacity to invest, but invest after a thorough research once you have prove to yourself that company is reliable and reputable enough. Because any company is subject to market ups and downs, and once the company is making poor performance, the risk of losing your money is high.

Give yourself a time to research first and investigate. Know the drawbacks of stock investing so that you won't be wasting your money into something that has no guaranteed returns and high risk of total loss.

[Accardo]

Some stocks that really make sense to me is Nvidea, TSM, and AVGO, the world is back on to the Semi conductor war, AI all revolves around chips, targeting chips producing companies, or its kinds, that's companies that relies on chips to make their products, turns out beneficial on the long term.

Nvidea for example, produces GPU, the stock has been soaring since January, the price moves up and down, but over all, it has done about 19% increase since the last 8 months, which is not that bad, these stocks moves based on the high level governmental demand on semiconductors, and the ever increasing AI race, so it's clear to see the prices shooting up in later years.

Anthropolic as Op stated, is a good suggestion, it's also in the AI industry, but stock buying can be very risky, if you do not have an insider informant, who could tell you about the wellbeing of the CEO, because, stocks drops heavily if any sad news pertaining to the CEO of the company emerges, so, it's best to have an insider than not, when dealing with stock.

Investment is supposed to be done when we have a clue of what those companies are all about and also how life-changing these companies would be in the next 10 years. If you're not in that line of study, you wouldn't know if investing in their stocks will be profitable. For example, I'm into the health sector. I do understand that buying health stocks during an election period and economy crisis might be profitable. AI technology is changing the world.

Normally you don't just have to invest like that without being oriented about the investment or company.
Before investing, it'll be wise of you to firstly study the company and research about their reliability just to have your investment funds secured. Knowing about the stock or asset you're buying and their durability is also important so that, you don't invest on risky or unprofitable assets.
We also have such projects in the Alt market while many of beginners had also fall victim of buying shit coins with poor market cap just because they didn't pay attention of knowing the possession of the asset.

Here’s what I suggest we discuss:
1. Choosing companies and explaining why you recommend buying shares in these specific companies.
2. How to buy shares. This is an interesting experience, since it’s not possible in every country to simply purchase shares in leading global companies.

I'll add a disclaimer with what I will say. This isn't a financial advice, and nothing that I will be saying is a recommendation or a decision that you should rely on. We have our own decision and whether you buy SPCX shares, or you will buy ANTHROPIC shares is up to you already. Now I sounded like a YouTube influencer now who are spreading false information for most of the time.

Kidding aside, if you will ask me, I will not buy SPCX shares as of now because looking at it's tokenomics, approximately 83% of the total SPCX tokens are still locked, and will be unlocked gradually. In crypto, token unlock means many will be selling it to take profit, and nothing changes when it comes to stocks. Because of this, I still see that the price of SPCX is highly overvalued therefore, I will only buy as soon as the tokens are unlocked... or at least most of them will be unlocked.

As for ANTHROPIC, they're still not yet launched, but I don't see buying them as well because the hype is still there, and I don't want to buy stocks that are hyped because it could become overvalued. Also, I don't like buying stocks after they got launched. Usually I wait for years before I will decide if I will be buying it or not. The company is currently at the top though when it comes to AI, but I'll stick with my rules.

As for how to buy shares, there are many brokers out there. You said Interactive Brokers already, but there are many more like Fidelity Investments, Charles Schwab, Robinhood, and many more. You might want to do a research though with regards to where you currently live because the availability of those brokers depend on which country are you living.

[jcojci]

According to AI, here is the way you can buy SpaceX and Anthropic:


I don't used Interactive Brokers but from my little research, I can buy the share at Pintu, one of local exchanges and the price is at $148.56.

You can't buy Anthropic directly because that is not in public but you can check Fidelity, SoFi, E*TRADE, and Robinhood frequently to see the offers for retail investors.

[free-bit.co.in]

Yes, thank you for pointing out the mistake - SpaceX's IPO took place in June of this year!
 

Instead, I think it'd be pretty interesting if you added OpenAI to this discussion too. That's another name worth considering alongside Anthropic.

What you said isn't wrong. We need to do our homework before investing in any asset or sector. Don't just throw your money in because someone else told you to.

But comparing top tech stocks to altcoin is apple to orange and kinda insulting to those companies tbh. The US stock market isn't some new thing. These are real companies with actual products, revenue and businesses behind them. Totally different animal from shitcoins made purely for speculation.

[Nothingtodo]

Undoubtedly, there are many other popular stocks including SpaceX which have a very good future and will make a profit if you buy them, but if you understand them well, then buy them but do not follow anyone and buy them. Give utmost importance to what you understand yourself and invest based on your opinion and plan. Do not suddenly invest by following someone's advice or investment portfolio, in this case, if for some reason you suffer a loss, you will not be able to console yourself.

[DrBeer]

How do I plan to buy? Through Interactive Brokers. If anyone uses this platform and needs help with the registration process, I’ll be happy to walk you through the details - I’ve already gone through the registration myself!

Investing on such IPOs can be very good especially if you invested early, the projects looks very promising because they are already known in the world, many will like to be their partners with little dollar we have if we can’t afford going the big shareholders that have largest shares in the companies, at least the IPO will be a very good way to start, but I don’t think many of us understand this very well since we are here to only discuss about  crypto, but diversifying our portfolios in something g outside crypto will be very good.

I will like to learn more about the platform, so that one can be convinced with the platform before investing on any IPO. I don’t if I am the only perform that did not understand and was looking for a way to buy IPO for long.

I completely agree that early investors reap the greatest benefits and profits. But, in my estimation, these companies have enormous potential.
As I wrote, for SpaceX, these are government mega-contracts,  they represent new opportunities - such as Starlink obtaining the status of an international mobile operator -and much more, especially in the space programs segment.

You know, NVIDIA is up around 150x from 10 years ago and about 500x from 20 years ago. Tech stocks have never really been a bad investment.

No investment is risk free, and nothing out there gives you low risk and high return at the same time. Investing comes with risk by default, no exceptions, whether it's stock, Bitcoin or gold.

These are real businesses with real products and real revenue. So investing in them still carries risk, but its very different kind of risk. Its not the same as throwing your money into some shitcoin. No need to blow it out of proportion , man.

What you need is to look into company, its financials and stock valuation. You don't need some insider feeding you private info.

That's GPT though.

I agree, their data are publicly displayed and easy to access with those information.
While the forum has discussions about investing and like for this thread.
We don't have to be too far from what we are doing, we're investors of Bitcoin.
Someone who's able to invest into other stock companies probably have a larger capital to do so and that's a great advantage.
But for someone like me, I'll choose to get stuck holding and having more bitcoin than to explore those, maybe after cashing out some profits.

You can imagine the level of the risk in investing or buying shares from companies.
You'll have to go through those protocols of finding a reliable third party that you don't find trusted to be genuine of giving you rightful updates about the company be you can find Potential and reliable stuck?
What if you meets staffs that's part of their marketing team or you don't think how you can be mislead when you've given your right out?
There I understand why you got me convinced that buying companies stucks are for investor's who had got larger bankroll income.
Investing in bitcoin will definitely serve better for less investment bank rolls and most interestingly gives you right to control your fund's and privacies.

That's why research before investing is important and that is our responsibility to know at least a few background from what we're investing.
It is our duty as investors to do those things and you'll know if you're only being called to invest due to good marketing.
When you're equipped with knowledge and you did the research, no one can fool you around when you're backed with data.

[Jostern]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with investing in stocks and buying shares, especially when you have money and you know about the business model that you want to invest, it can be cryptocurrency or other investments, you don’t just go into this investments without having no good knowledge and a blueprint to carry out the investment, which I think it’s a wrong approach” SpaceX is a good company, but you don’t just wake up and wants to invest in such stocks and companies when you don’t have a good knowledge about it.

There are risk involved in buying stocks and shares, when you don’t study the risk and your chances of becoming successful in the investment then it could become a problem if we get involved in this things blindly.

Feels like most folks here are only investing in crypto and not too keen on anything else. That's everyone's personal choice and it's fine. But I think people should spend some time and money looking into other investment options instead of putting everything into crypto.
Not that Bitcoin or crypto is a bad pick, just, you know, don't put all your eggs in one basket.

There's plenty of other potential investments out there that pull in profits just as insane as crypto. As I mentioned above, NVIDIA has gone up hundreds of times in just two decades. 

Diversify and balance your portfolio, imo.

[fruktik]

If we look at the SpaceX chart right now, the situation suggests that entering a short position is preferable to buying the stock. I believe the pullback from current levels will be quite significant. This is not a recommendation, but rather my personal view.

Everyone must make their own decisions. Investing involves high risks that are rarely mentioned. I have read a lot of advice on this forum claiming that investments can generate profit. What a huge misconception that is. The vast majority of investors actually lose money in this arena; only a small percentage make a profit. One should never forget that.

[Youngrebel]

Op the topic is actually interesting to those who can relate as you have said and i think the access part you talked about is the most important part of this discussion to me I don’t know about others most especially for people living in civilised countries like the United States and also I feel like being interested in a company or to invest in a company after making your research about it is not the issue but being able to purchase the shares through a legal means or a legit platform for me that where the issue comes, I really don’t know much about SpaceX and Anthropic but to me before going into something like this I would want to look at what I stand to gain, what I stand to loose, the growth, revenue, the dept and also the risk this 6 character matter more to me while engaging in any platform.

[Obim34]

P.S. I am expressing my personal opinion here; please do not consider this a call to action. Everyone should conduct their own analysis and draw their own conclusions about the investment opportunity.

I want to ask, since you brought up the discussion, how do you predict these stocks to be worth in the next 10-20 years?

There is an ongoing IPO in my country involving an oil refinery, I understand it is a separate market from the ones you mentioned, but there are stocks that will be very much beneficial for those who invest in large sum, what about those with average sources, do you think it is worthwhile to participate in the IPO using such amounts?

[DrBeer]

Of the risks I’ve identified? excluding purely investment-related ones? these are:
1. The complexity of purchasing in jurisdictions other than the U.S. and the EU. Specific registration and payment procedures.
2. Peculiarities of local legislation, including tax laws. Local Ukrainian legislation regarding ownership and profit distribution is acceptable to me.
3. Problems with asset freezes may sometimes arise if a country is subject to sanctions. At the very least, this does not apply to Ukraine.

[CryptoBuds]

I want to ask, since you brought up the discussion, how do you predict these stocks to be worth in the next 10-20 years?

Honestly man, it's no different from trying to call bitcoin's price. Nobody can predict that.
It all depends on how the company grows, how business is going, revenue and a bunch of other stuff over the next 10 years.

There is an ongoing IPO in my country involving an oil refinery, I understand it is a separate market from the ones you mentioned, but there are stocks that will be very much beneficial for those who invest in large sum, what about those with average sources, do you think it is worthwhile to participate in the IPO using such amounts?

Dunno much about stock market in your country. I cannot really say if that IPO is worth getting into. But if you want a view on the performance of the leading stocks in the US, just check the history.

In the last 20 years, Amazon, Apple, NVIDIA, and GG ...are up 20, 50 or even several hundred times. NVIDIA itself is up around 300 times.

Imo, it's not about the amount. Selecting the best company with the most potential and holding it long enough is what is important. Whether you start with $1k or $10k, a 20x or 100x return in 20 years is still a lot.

Yes, having another means of investment apart from crypto is good, but I think the knowledge we get from crypto will always guide us towards making the right decision on the IPOs we should buy.

We have been in this forum for a while, we have learn that the best way to be safe in any investment is to do your own research about it, if we can have time to check these IPOs well, by doing extensive research about the projects, if we can be satisfied with the project and we see future in them, we can buy some just as we risk money to buy some altcoins, it is almost similar to me, but buying it in a good platform is the best thing so that we will not lose our investment.
