I was lucky enough to jump in when the feds awarded them something like 450 million to ramp up research and production. I figured fed wouldn’t pump that much in if they didn’t have confidence in something.  I’m waiting till phase three of their trials to sell... I don’t know if their mRNA solution is easy to mass produce or if they will make it through all the hoops to get fda  approval.  I’ll take my profit and run!

 

J&J might be a good bet too ... they have mass production capabilities for a vaccine with sites around the world with their various partnerships and assets.  But I doubt they will have the casino style upside that moderna had a couple months ago. 

J&J is great stock that is very steady, once talcum powder and opioid litigations settle it will go up even more.

Price is little too high right now but definitely worth adding to a long term portfolio.

I have had a few people message me about VTIQ and Nikola. Mostly about how they're perceived in the media and why I like them.

 

The main reason I like Nikola is who's currently backing the company. Some big big name and some big big companies.

 

Companies being Fidelity Management (NetWorth 2.5T) and ValueAct (NewWorth 10B)

 

Also the board of directors are almost a perfect combination for this company.

 

President is Mark Russell, Formed President & COO of Worthington Industries. A gigantic metals company that's publicly trades for $27 a share and is worth over 4B.

Board Of Directors, Stephen Girsky, Former Vice Chariman & Senior Advisor for General Motors, this guy knows a thing or 2 about the automotive industry.

And of course CEO, Trevor Milton, he spent the last 7 years in the class 8 truck industry, focusing on recalibration of diesel engines and emissions, then moving into storage of high pressure natural gas & hydrogen

 

They have the idea, they have the plan, they have the money and they have the people. Can they execute ? I think they can and am waiting through the merger and beyond. With only 6% of company shares being available to the average joe I will be holding my 600 shares for as long as I can. Every piece of good news that comes from this company will only drive it higher and there is alot of good news coming.

Selling moderna was a big mistake, 6k mistake to be exact.

up 30% today

I work at a financial firm downtown... saw lots of advisors buying Moderna like half a year ago.... maybe I should have picked up on that.

But this way before anyone have even heard of the coronavirus.... oh well.

El Dorado just went up 20% in one day, sweet.

 

Nice!  

I picked up some share since you mentioned it.  

I was too focused on LVS, that I didn't noticed that ERI was dropping way more.

 

 

Now with a good run with VTIQ and ERI.... my losses this year has finally reached below 6 figures... :sadno:

Buffet sold them at least 30% higher than todays prices.

Depending on exact date when he sold in April, but looking at Southwest it was in 30-31 range most of the April with one pop.

Today is at 29, so it doesn’t look like it was 30% higher.

Any thoughts on Air Canada? I’m waiting for it to hit sub 12.00.  I figure if the Libs back them at the federal level no reason it won’t hit 20 again just on speculation.. but will that happen.. 

Personally I don’t think you’ll see them hit sub 12. They dropped for about a week and a half last week and now provinces slowly reopening etc. I don’t see why they’d have another massive dip. 
 

just an opinion.

I regret only getting 250 shares when I got in. Oh well.

I'll be honest, I just got out at $26.08... $6,376.93 profit in 9 days.

 

I will hopefully re-position, I don't think $26 is sustainable pre-merger. It will be after though.

I've thought about getting out but my buy in was so cheap that I'm willing to risk the $$ to post merger.

I think you are right.  I should have got in during last weeks downturn....

What are people's thoughts on Fortis as a long term utilities hold?

Owned it for years. Grows the div steadily. Has about $6 billion of projects on the books. Generates about half their revenue in the USA. Markets are in turmoil right now but when C-19 is resolved I think there will be another run on utility stocks that yield over 3%. Also own BIPC which is supposed to be equivalent to BIP.U yet the price differential is almost $8. I guess companies who held BIP.U are buying along with Americans.
