  • Ep 225: Airbnb’s Superpower

    Ah! The beauty of traveling anywhere in the world and living a dream, even for a few days, is Airbnb's promise to travelers. It also allows anyone to earn passive income from the extra room in their house or the entire house by renting it to others through Airbnb's platform. But those dreams haven't yet made the company's investors any money. The company's stock, ticker ABNB, has lost nearly 30% since its IPO, 11% of which happened after its Q1 2023 earnings report release. Would the dream ever translate to investment return for investors, and is the double-digit drop in the stock price a buying opportunity?

  • Ep 224: Are You Too Late To Buy SHOP?

    The so-called Amazon-killer company, Shopify (Ticker: SHOP), is up more than 20% in the last few days, like it's 2021 all over again. What did the company share in its latest earnings report that has investors piling up shares, and is it too late to get in on the action? Let's talk about that!


     


    Correction: In this episode, I mention ARKK has an 11% SHOP allocation. That's incorrect. ARKK's SHOP allocation is ~5%.

  • Ep 223: TikTok Isn’t Killing Snap

    Snap is a $13B technology company that almost every teenager uses its app to connect with friends. It has successfully engaged and satisfied its users but not so much its investors. Its stock is down more than 50% since its IPO in 2017. Many attribute Snap's fall to TikTok's fierce competition in recent years. Is that reason justified, or is the 50% drop in the stock price a buying opportunity?

    👀 Get the list of CDN stocks


    🔬 Research FSLY on Stock Card


    Fastly (FSLY) was one of the hot stocks during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company went public in 2019 and started its first trading day at around $21 per share. By October 2020, its stock was trading at nearly $130 per share, up by more than 400% in roughly a year and a half after its IPO. Two years after, by the end of 2022, the stock lost almost all of its value, trading at $7 per share. The rise and fall of Fastly is a classic example of a pandemic stock.


    Is the post-pandemic price slump an opportunity to buy shares?


    Let's talk about that!

  • Ep 221: Cannabis Stocks Are Not Dead Yet!

    The year was 2018-19, and Cannabis stocks were hot! One of the market leaders, Canopy Growth was trading at $50 per share, and another, Tilrary, was priced at more than $140 per share. Fast forward to 2023, and cannabis stocks have lost almost all their value. Both those market leader stocks are now down 98% from their all-time highs of 2018-19. 


    Cannabis stocks are either destined for bankruptcy, and 100% value loss or they are deeply-discounted opportunities we should pay attention to now.

  • Ep 220: Explosively Growing Market No One Talks About

    Roughly ten years ago, I skipped investing in Axon Enterprise (AXON) and missed an opportunity to hold a stock that has since grown by more than 10X.


    But good investors don't repeat the same mistakes twice! Axon is a great company, but even greater is the Police & Public Safety Technology industry. It is growing by ~30% per year, and it is just getting started.


    Today I'm glad to officially the Stock Card community to the world's 1st ever Police and Public Safety Index, created by Economist Michael Hardiman. Listen to the episode and visit the index's page on the Idea Center!

  • Ep 219: Three Ways To Invest After SVB’s Failure

    The loser panics. The victor makes a decision.




    If stock market losers panic and sell, what do smart investors do when the market goes through difficult times? They act the opposite and invest.




    The Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) meltdown is one of those situations that has created broad market panic, making investors wonder how to act like a winner and which stocks or ETFs to consider.




    In today's episode, I discuss three ways to invest in response to SVB's failure. Check it out!

    TODAY'S EPISODE:


    👋  Recently, I spoke with a few Stock Cardians who have been thrown off of their investing game with the latest price falls in the stock market. They are either thinking of selling everything they bought or have already taken the chopping knife to their portfolios and cut their losses, incurring significant actual losses in their portfolios. A few have told me that they are even thinking of quitting investing altogether.


    I sympathize with and understand how it feels to lose money in the market. After all, no one is immune to the red arrows. However, what these fellow Stock Cardians are telling me signals the possibility of investors committing the cardinal sin of investing (#InvestingMistake). I took the camera and microphone out to record a new YouTube and Podcast episode to explain the cardinal sin of investing (#InvestorGap) and why it is happening. I also shared a few tips and tricks to help fellow Stock Cardians avoid committing such a damaging mistake.


    • Stop making the cardinal sin of investing

    • The divergence between institutional investors and retail investors in Feb 2022

    • What is the cardinal sin of investing?

    • What's the Investor Gap, and how is it created?

    • What to do if you are about to make the worst investing mistake of buying high and selling low, or if you have already done that?

    • What is the summary of this episode?


    Thank you!
