Spoiler: Trading notes for next trading week

Edit: Gern has huge potential and AMRN should potentially go up tremendously (Both companies have %100 ownership of a breakthrough drug in cancer and heart treatment supplement.)

The stock market went down though people still are convinced it hasn't "crashed." The top billionaires right now have lost a lot by leaving it in the stock market except for Warren Buffett whom seemed prepared from the last crash (when he was speculating into oil put options.)

If anyone wants to understand call/put options trading, this video isn't bad.

It helps to also be aware of accounting/corruption within business, and how it relates to many of these stocks that are trading still.

The stocks that appear to only go up right now:
OMER
SNDX (is highly volatile so you would need to sell it as soon as it rises again, and then return to it when it falls at the dip in trend.)

CLDC shows buyout offering with potential to go from $1 to $5-7

MNGA (which strangely showed a huge boost right before the day ended and shows wild fluctuations in premarket trading. . .) and GERN are considered "potentially" undervalued; they may have huge progress in a new cancer drug or a specialty underwater soldering gas supply that is hard to come by and thus rather exclusive; though in both cases either a major backer backs away from the drug and threw a bunch of money in their direction prior to leaving them to do their own thing, or what appears to be making progress may not address the lingering debt that remains in their portfolio.

When it comes to call and put options I'm not sure I would mess with it yet, though this is the "secret" that investors use to make money.

And no I wouldn't be paying that guy (in the hyperlinked video at the top) money to show "where he comes in."

One way of understanding 'Penny Stock' (anything below $10, though usually it refers to things below $1 which are more volatile or have a hard time "catching on" in the market.)

Magnegas (is basically a company focused on renewable gasses though markets itself as a patented underwater welding technology) could be a huge stock potentially and may just take some time to catch on.

It's important to study up on phases in medical study and the funding behind it, or in the situation with Magnegas observe which progress exists in their key focus technology (in this situation only the welding aspect is being recognized. The renewable technology isn't even it's main focus.) It might be better just selling and moving to a different stock, or otherwise holding onto a cheap buy in that people don't want to be around to see results on.

When further looking back on the stock it was extremely high (which is not uncommon; sometimes stocks will be high because the shares are small in number--float--and I've seen some absurd billion dollar stocks that routinely go into penny stock territory when they get diluted.

****************

I didn't want to create a new post just for this video. Also in regards to the stock exchange, I would wait until things become more stable (things are affected and people are starting to create a more unstable stock trading environment.) Sometimes optimism for low stocks, tend to overlook the reason people actually "jumped ship."

I've been looking for some good documentaries on the Hittites.

They are kind of full of it. Not that I didn't enjoy the video and both input on the subject matter; and not that I don't believe people don't have a choice in life: The 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' example, assumed that they had the capital to create a business that wasn't already generating cashflow. The Rich dad would tell their kid to create a business that ultimately relied upon "poor dad's" child, and expected him to be educated/"qualified" and ultimately compliant to generating "value" for themself. The value is an opportunistic way of giving people options that were otherwise not available/affordable. His entire FBA dropshipping business and real estate business, generating cashflow along with his stock investment portfolio paying dividends or generating higher value, are basically an example of someone that would rely upon others to produce the products that ship from China to then be sold on Amazon. The value is not in the business but the people that are being taken advantage of or utilized in ways that minimizes their chances of having their own business capital developed, just as much as a rental property is expecting a return on the building structure to accumulate more money while also being paid off by the person renting it, while it's attached to his name of ownership. Their very idea of that multi-million dollar yacht sitting on the lake being started by a car dealership owner/Manager whom fired the lowest performing sales person, is just an example of the kinds of self-aggrandizing ego that ultimately comprises the greed mentality and entitlement. People that invest in the stock market need to have a stable situation that allows them to keep money floating in a business that may or may not reach profitability for years at a time, and often with the possibility of losing money if it doesn't pan out. Often the nature of a market is whatever people ascribe to it's value, even if the underlying product is just repackaging something of inferior quality at a much higher price point.

Currently watching an investor's presentation with a lot of science explained intelligently; (ARWR) Arrowhead Pharmaceutical video requires creating a profile though it has been worth it (though about 2 hrs and 40 min.)
