It’s worth zero in my opinion. As is bitcoin. Go figure

I am not defending them but the Hindenburg report was clearly incredibly one sided.

Nikola have a fat order book and working products, ones that move under their own power (even if if that power isn’t always a fuel cell)

I did like this comment

‘Tesla have more vehicles in orbit than Nikola have on the road’

As said I am not here to defend them, there are other later videos available of trucks clearly not rolling down hills.

Interesting share if you like rollercoasters.

But they are also not fuel cell are they? Just a standard EV?

There are some aspects of Nikola that are really interesting - particularly the hydrogen infrastructure concepts. I have no idea why they were getting involved with disracting things like the pickup or ATV though - they just seem to be a drain on attention.

I finally picked up the Slack and bought them (Slack Technologies). I know Microsoft is pushing Teams but I think Slack may have another good run with Coronavirus Part 2 even though some of their results haven't been inspiring.

Nvidia has always looked a nice safe bet but haven't pulled the trigger on them.

Hard to see much upside in Nvidia given the run the shares have been on

But I agree, nice business

I've bobbed in and out of NVDA a few times buying before product announcement and launches and selling on the hype, done well so far, not sure what the longterm is as an investment though, product line-up and sales are strong but not sure how much of the current price is bubble.

Not even if it was the last listed company you could buy shares in.

Ironic, as it may well be the first.

I bought a few more BP today. They've been dying a slow horrible death over the last month or so and it's been horrible to watch. They're up a little today and still pay a dividend so i'll pick up some more.

Slack - still doing ok
Smith & wesson - moving back up slowly.
Peloton - still hold a small amount of these
Cineworld - no comment other than I didn't have the balls to buy on Monday. Glad it's one of my smaller holdings.
Easyjet - going to sit on that for a while.
Amazon - no reason to sell that or be concerned at this point.

Still kicking myself about not buying Nvidia sub-$500. Not sure if i've got any other plays in mind at the moment other than reducing exposure to a few holdings like Tesco & Man Group.

Anyone interested take a look at PLUG. Alt energy company. They certainly seem to have the wind at their backs smile

Peloton.

$10k invested in March looks like it will be worth $100k by Christmas.

Yeah I kept looking at them for a drop to buy in but they just keep going up. Jumped into Netflix instead for the q3 results due on the 20th.

On the assumption Biden is going to win, I am half wondering about getting out of a few US stocks...

Thoughts ?
