An update. At the close yesterday Galapagos ended up at 109 €, Tomtom at 8€ and XRP at o.347 $.
Tempted to sell Galapagos which would have returned me just over 1900 €, if the other two were also sold my net gain would have been around 900€.
I feel that Galapagos will rise further over the course of a few days so I will just be patient. You must always follow your own instincts formulated by studying and analalizing. Never act on advice given by novices, just look at Tesla !!

I have hesitantly sold Galapagos at 109.45€, since I believe that the market has allready reacted on Galapagos favourable data. I still think there is a potential for further increase but an investor must follow his own instincts, my net profit is just over 1950€ .
Tomtom, although gaining some ground is still below my purchase price of 8.12€, now stands at 8€.
XRP still down hovering around .34$ , I bought at .44$.
As for Tesla, I hope that nobody took Boomerangs tip at $376 as it now stands at 267 $. This novice was so proud of his ...recommendation , well if bought at his tip price you now be down around 29% .
What separates men from the boys is evident here. Where is this ....phenomenal investor ? A rude bastard too. Give us another tip boy !!

You might remember me mentioning something like this about two months ago. Now JP Morgan is saying it:

Hi Tim. I remember you telling me this, I must admitt that in view of events the year before I tented to skip such stocks. As Im now looking for my next investement I will take a closer look. Im not out , at my age, to make a fortune, nevertheless a few extra euros and the mental stimulation in dealing makes it rather appealing.
Im rather slow in entering a stock as I have over the years exercised great care, it has worked just fine for me thus far. I do not gamble in any shape or form having experienced most gambling avenues, casinos, poker etc etc. Mind you I do ....gamble with anglers on the pier as to how many fish I catch !!

Nothing more annoying than people who gloat and say, "Told you so," but I did. If you had gone into US natural gas stocks at that time you would be up around 20% just now. If JP Morgan is telling retail investors that the sector is cheap, that means they and the "big boys" have already loaded up, but I still see more upside ahead.

That said, the energy sector is not for the risk adverse.

Galapagos has been " good" to me, earning me a very respectable 22% on my investement in just over 3 months. Im currently studying another stock and will reveal soon. Enough to say that cyber security stocks are gaining momentum since every single company now considers CS as a must. Looking at one or two right now. Money sitting in a bank depreciates, it earns you nothing, besides its not ....exciting . With hindsight I should have bought one or two options with Tesla, would now have made over 20%. Still mustn't be greedy.

Read what various analysts are saying. This is how expetienced traders such as I reach a well balanced research results. None of us would be in a position to draw, as you do, a favourable concussion. Just read and read. You may then learn what makes a succesful trader.


you are not by any chance caling yourself a successfull trader by any chance whan you quote an article from april are you?...the question here begs, do you know the stock market is dynamic and not static well do you?...
do you know that and i am repeatng my self once again, in april tesla was investing in assembly lines to accomodate and service more than 400,000 model 3 orders?...guess what, today they are delivering more than 80,000 per quarter and this is going higher with every quarter, try using either of the 2 brain cells you old fool...how is any one going bankrupt while holding a ridiculous amount of fucking orders...use your common sence you old selnile fool...telsa problem while solved is far cry from where they were in april, you are comparing chalk and cheese...

let me give you some advice, for any negative comment, you will find a positive comment, you need to read behind the lines to see some truth, but with telsa case is unique because today
1...they are sitting od a ridiculous amount of orders
2...they have increased their quarterly production x a factor of 4
3...they actually made money this quarter
4... they are sitting on pile of patents
5...they own all the chargers and nozzles where other companies will need to pay them royalties to use them...
6...not only expanding but building a factory to service the most populous country in the world where the government is pushing green technology with incentives
7...they locked up lithium supplies from the rest of the world
8...there are a lot more reasons...

so how are they going to go bankrupt...only in your tiny brain a bankruptcy case exists...please do not call yourself a trader...you are nothing but a fucking moron...

you claim to be an accountant which I highly dispute this, since not only you cannot think for yourself but cannot fathom how share market works, as DT mentioned to you the debt is already discounted, he let the bunny out of the bag, and even after he told you, you insist on making a fool of yourself...

a serious trader would have known what DT told you, but you pissing in the wind calling your self a trader is absolutely fucking laughable, unless of course you were pushing me to see if worth trading or not...you only had to ask my opinion rather than making a fool of your self...anyway I highly doubt you where fishing me...you are too stupid for that because you are still fucking rumbling...

PS...post some of the idiotic statements you read, for all to see, we can do with another laugh...I did a quick search and all are old statements prior to the last quarter...but please do show us a current statement in the current quarter, do not constantly just serve us not only incoherent ramblings coupled with verbal diarrhea...because its fucking priceless...

It was way back in mid December when this novice was recommending Tesla trading at $376. As you can see from his post he was rather confident that Tesla was a ....good investement!! Well in under 6 months this stock has lost almost 50% now closing at around $190.. Trading on the markets is highly risky and one should never follow tips given by novices when such tips contradict what the experts are saying.
I still have Tomtom which I bought at 8.12€ now slightly up at 8.28 €, also still have Kiadis Pharma slightly down . However I inceased my stake in XRP , originally bought at 0.44$ by buying again at 0.31$. It's currently trading at around 0.39$ which brings my bying price at around 0.37.5 $.
All in all Im more than happy with my investements.i hope NO one took the fool's advice on Tesla !!
Please Remember that nobody but nobody can get 100% right, were this so one would be a multi billionaire. I aim for 6 out of 10 any more and its a bonus. Galapagos produced a nice profit for me, still think it has a good potential to rise further.

Tesla is a good product with their cars, but they were the new kid on the block few years ago at the time when Tesla was investors favourite place to place their bets in a company that was more advanced than Hybrid, that it was 100% emission free (except at the source if coal was used to make electricity). But more and more, other car makers will/are coming onto the market with their 100% electric cars also, therefore, Tesla will need to compete with them on the pricing of it's products, which no doubt it will effect it's investment appeal which can and will effect it's stock value. Again, Tesla makes great cars with a great concept, but they are no longer alone in that field.
