Surprised we haven't seen more of it.

Wouldn't surprise me given that lithium is expected to boom until 2025.

RE the S&P 500, it's expected by Morgan Stanley/Seeking Alpha to bottom out between 3100-3400, but it could go as low as 3000 according to the Bank of America. Right now it's just below 3600.

The current inflationary period is going to be followed by deflation next year, so I plan to invest in tech, especially MSFT (which IMO will find a way to profit during the third gen tech boom due to their imperialistic practices), since that's deflationary. So is private equity.

Im looking forward to buying the new low.

After the Fed leaves the train wreck behind.

MS regularly downramp lithium, then they buy when the price drops. Read up recent history of PLS.
 
I'm 33, just starting to get curious about the share market now, started with the Equity Mates Beginners podcast now I'm flicking around trying to absorb a bit, will dive into some books shortly. It sounds so simple and so intricate at the same time. I'm not in a position to enter the market in any serious way as it stands, would now be the time to really knuckle down on saving with the current forecast for the next 12-18 months and have a good crack then?

I don't think it's ever a bad time to start saving or planning for your financial future.

You sound like you're good at research, why not find a way to direct the amount you're planning on saving into investments now? Why accumulate cash if its going to go into an investment portfolio anyway?

Yeah, fair point. Savings will be glacial to begin with. I have a mortgage, two kids and we're single income. My work has just started paying penalty rates which has been a game changer for us, finally starting to make progress instead of surviving. To begin with I'm just going to use my own little bit of pocket money but I see your point.
 
Good day for AZS, it is kind of funny though just stumbling across some decent chip samples of lithium sends a stock up 28%..
I’m hopeful CDT does the same. They are targeting chip samples for lithium this year.
 
I reckon the next 6 months will present a lot of opportunity for those brave enough to buy.

I've been caught with a couple of dog stocks that I'm looking for any half decent sign to offload but the rest I'm holding for the long term.

I'll be keeping an eye on quite a few ETFs. Things like HACK are intriguing to me, especially with all these cybersecurity issues occurring. Down 20% the last year.

I haven't managed to do it yet but really need to learn as a retail investor to simply shoot duds, wear the loss and just forget about them.

Yep. Got a tax bill the last year much to my surprise but gee i could have done better not holding complete duds like MRQ and ANP and put that money to better use. Momentum trading really should be where you are as a retail investor but you seem to want to find that diamond in the rough! Had i simply cut losses or sold when the trend was broken id have hit 4x 10 baggers and a 20 in the last 18 months. Made about 10 total (realised) in that time. Rode IBX from 1.4c to 20 and sold at 8ish as an example. Momentum trading alone would have likely seen a sale above 15...

i think this is what ill be concentrating on moving forward. Buy long term holds but check the chart weekly for the trend. Takes emotion out, strict rules... whether i actually stick to that, who knows lol

During covid I think a lot of people had a lot more time to actually be on top of things (was the case for me). Now I just don't have the time to watch as closely as I should and I only hold 5 stocks at the moment.

imho - cash is king until the Fed stops raising rates. Its all stuffed until then.

One last thing....

You dont need to pay for any training or investment reports. Its all free on the web, YT and twitter. If you are tempted to pay for advice or education, there are very few decent paid services out there. Most of them are shillers....

A few people on here have posted a number of good books too.
