>tfw bought stocks at $10
Who else is getting rich from AMD? This will pay for a good upgrade.
I hope you guys didn't miss another good investment opportunity.
Tfw bought stocks at $10
I got in back when it was $4.50 a share. I fucking wish I had bought more.
How many did you get? I bought about 70 shares when they were ~$6. Not sure how long I should hold onto them. Someone was saying to wait until their profit reports come out in Q2 or something.
150 shares. I'm going hang onto it for awhile longer. Ride the Ryzen train into Vega probably and see how things are looking then.
>mfw 465 shares
Bought around $1,000 when it was at $2.60 two years ago. Saw it go down into the $1s, but kept holding onto it. Now we're at $15, and my $1,000 investment is worth a little over $5,000. In hindsight I wish I had invested more, but I was tight on cash at the time (had just closed on a house).
I think that the stock is going to head to $22-23 in the next two months, and then hold there for a while. Just a hunch.
>tfw only just started working when AMD were 1.6
>Didn't have the money to buy any meaningful number of shares
Fuck me.
>investment
Speculation.
Also,
This is like bitcoin all over again.
Shoulda pulled the trigger when it was down around $2.
How do I get into stock picking, short/long, commodities, all that stuff?
Is there an easy way to have access to it all?
We were all told to buy at $1.6
None of us listened.
We all feel the same pain right now.
I bought 25 @ $13.4. Was that too late?
All I want is enough to upgrade to Ryzen. This was more of a practice run as well, I've never bought stocks before.
I decided to not go to college right away after high school. Put all $10k of my savings into AMD stock when it was a $2.03... I thought "can it really get any worse?"
Profits!
I blew $1k on this as a gamble back when it was around $2.50. It's an excellent return, yet I still feel bad because I know if I'd just put 10k in instead of 1k I'd have gotten so much moneys
:(
yes, i have robinhood gold too fellow neet
>moneys
back to /r/pcmasterrace with you
Its still prime time to invest.
Be part of the bubble.
I most definitely did.
Then again I got in on the ground floor of bitcoin mining too. Made over $30,000 during the second big bubble.
What do you think will be the next good thing?
Any other cryptocurrency? Particular tech stock?

Shitpost at my face.
where were we told bro
i was here
nobody told me
Not him, but hard to say at present. None of the big tech firms is undervalued anymore. Short of buying in the middle the next big recession, the largest gains are probably to be made in another industry. I guess I might look at some UK companies who might be primed to rebound from Brexit loses.
I always remember some dude in every thread pushing AMD stock, when it bottomed out at 1.6 I even recall a thread or two about it.
My memory may be shoddy on fine details, but I know that I had seen it more than once here.
Why were they undervalued in the first place?
Do you think they are fair valued now? Or overvalued?
I don't know theres any sure thing right now if you're looking for a singular stock to shoot up in a short span. On average the whole market is up for obvious reasons. A lot of money floating around, and its working its way into the market.
Sift through the clusterfuck of a site that is MarketWatch, and realize that some articles from financial outlets are blatant attempts at stock manipulation.
So long as the market holds you could just put some money into the S&P, or NASDAQ and you'd see modest returns. If the US sees strong job creation under Trump, if WW3 with Russia/China doesn't kick off, if the dollar regains any value at all, the market will continue to rise.
>speculating on stocks
I play it safe and just go with index funds for diversification. Single stocks are pretty much just gambling. Sure, I missed out on AMD and BTC when it was $0.10, but returns have been nice since 2010 so I still made a ton of money and am almost at 200k in investments
I don't even know how to buy shares to begin with
NO NO NO NO! THIS CANNOT HAPPEN! PLEASE, STOP AMD!!!
> some articles from financial outlets are blatant attempts at stock manipulation.
How can I get objective information?
Graphs, company reports, all that?
Some Bloomberg Terminal level shit.
That should have been made open source a long time ago... Is there no open source software for tracking markets?
Slow and steady wins the race.
Still, it's not a bad thing to have a portion of your portfolio dedicated to individual stocks, especially when you see companies dramatically undervalued (AMD in 2015, Ford in 2008, etc). You'll miss on a few, but the ones you hit on should more than offset your misses if you're careful enough.
None of it is truly objective, and this is where things start to get super meta. Big financial institutions use computers to analyze and move money in the market. Everyone is doing this. The majority of money invested in the market is not moving around by the conscious decisions of human actors. Software reads and tries to exploit trends in the market. Software is aware that other software is also doing the same thing.
A human analyst writing an article may not have any personal vested interest in a given stock, but simply the act of publishing an article about a given company can cause a sudden spike in trading one way or another, and software will see that pattern to act on it before any human will.
The overall trend of the market is up, its technically over inflated, but when we see a company like AMD we're seeing the potential for a bubble to emerge within the bubble of the overall up market. Its sort of a perfect storm scenario that you don't see often.
You can try to buy the trends and hope you come out ahead, or you can learn everything about a given company, and ride their short term success when you know they're about to step up to the plate and hit a home run.
Or you find something like Broadcom and sit back as the money just rolls in.
60-80 USD per share incoming.
hurts to live senpai
You should still have some % invested in individual bets, especially in fields you are very familiar with.
For people familiar with tech AMD was a much better buy than for some corporate fuck who only looked at stats and numbers.
AMD was already at rock bottom and it had nowhere else to go but up. Bankruptcy was never ever an option because it wouldn't benefit anyone, it would actually hurt Intel pretty bad if AMD went bankrupt.
If you invested in AMD when they were ~2$ the worst thing that could have happened was that Ryzen was another Bulldozer and the price stayed the same.
lolno, their share price is dependent upon intel's
sitting on about 4k shares, should go to $20-$25 from their next 2 quarterly earnings improving from ryzen. After that it depends on how naples and vega pan out. Just keep in mind, historically AMD shares rise fast, and fall fast.
How high do you think AMD will get before it's time to sell?
I'd wait at least until the end of the year. Very unlikely for anything to happen in that time that would cause the price to drop.
By the end of the year we'll have Vega and the lower tier Ryzens and there's nothing to indicate any of them will be bad.
After that you can consider selling.
I'm holding for $20, but I could see it build much higher than that. If it reaches the necessary critical mass people will buy in and intentionally turn it into a full blown bubble just to profit from the frenzy buying before it deflates.
Wow, you made 5 whole dollars. My mentally handicapped niece makes more than that from a lemonade stand. I bet your parents are so proud.
>all you idiots investing in AMD right now
>when it tanks you're gonna hate yourselves for not selling sooner
I don't think we're even at the bubble phase yet. Right now it's just the stock adjusting back to what the value should be.
AMD at 2$ was a complete joke one of the most obviously undervalued stocks on the market.
>caring about money
lol

How can I short a stock?
Nvidia too

No one told you to buy it. Back when it was ~$2 every other thread on /gee/ was "AYYMD FINISHED AND BANKRUPT"

I did. I told you all to BUY THE FUCKING DIP instead of posting ebin memes. It's like Bitcoin and Dogecoin all over again.
My Lambo will be red, just like my new AYYYMD Ryzen™ system, paid for entirely by my AMD gains. I also fucked you're waifu.
lmao @ you poorfags
I spent my parent's inheritence on buying Apple stock @ 95 dollaroos. At 5,000 shares, I've made nearly 190k. Fucking get on my level.
>VEGA announcement tommorow is gonna pump up the stocks even further
>sell all the stocks 10 minutes before NDA expires and it turns out how bad Ryzen acutally is
>stock up on intel and nvidia and wait for their announcements
you bought $10 worth of stock from them hahahaha and then you show the share prices?
WTF?
>winner gloat , losers stay silent
I don't feel there are enough fundamentals to buy AMD anyways.
Stock momentum now is mostly hype.
Did AMD quadruple their revenue ?
Did they post some amazing quarterly results ?
Still largely looks like the same AMD company 3 months ago, yet the price keeps going up.
>This is like bitcoin all over again.
Actually bitcoin is like bitcoin all over again
Allow me to copypaste another post:
84 socket AM4 mobos
1,000,000 Ryzen CPUs at launch
200 system builders
Retailers selling all their preorders within 4 hours of them being available
OEMs saw the performance of the samples AMD sent them, and they knew it would be a strong seller.
2017 is going to be a strong year for AMD in terms of revenue, and everyone paying attention knows it. They have a lot of things lined up, and it will continue for at least the next 2 years.
I remember those threads. I can't believe I didn't buy some for shits and giggles.

>you bought $10 worth of stock from them hahahaha and then you show the share prices?
You need to work on your reading comprehension.
>Did AMD quadruple their revenue ?
Not unlikely that they will after ryzen. People are buying in anticipation for that. Once the good numbers are confirmed, it is usually too late to buy stock as the progress is already priced in.
stock price should reflect actual sales and forecasts, not just wishful thinking.
>everyone paying attention knows it
if that is true then we could say AMD stock is fairly valued and has no room to go up or down.
Here are two possible outcomes for AMD.
Ryzen meets all your expectations and the stock goes up
Ryzen doesn't meet expectations and stock goes down.
I would argue that at this point future ryzen sales are already taken into account for AMD's stock price, so unless ryzen is some out of the ballpark hit it will won't be able to meet the loft expectations everyone has set for them at this point.
The stock market is not always rational, take for example how people bought up snap interactive stock (obviously not snapchat) thinking it was snapchat stock because of newly announced ipo plans.
I am glad for people who made their money on AMD, I am concerned for them being so heavily invested in a single stock though.
nah but it's decent side money from my normal job. meanwhile these fucks are shitting their pants for a 5 dollar increase for ~150 shares
Didn't have much money to invest, but did alright.
Can anyone beat $1.888? I'm not seeing one in the thread.
>None of us listened.
So what's the next AMD so that we can listen now?
12,000 shares @ 1.20 a share.
Ride it to 20 and take those 2,000 shares off the top.
Buy me an epic Ryzen PC. All the RGBs I can fit.
Then start considering houses I want to buy.
And call it a day.
I'm the person that made a high return (% wise) off AMD that just posted and I can't say there's really a lot.
I'd say Tesla is undervalued. Yeah, their stock price looks high, but their PEG is still well in the negatives and they're going to quadruple their already world-beating battery capacity in a few years. But not nearly the way AMD is.
It's rare you can get a billion dollar stable company's stock for so cheap to where you can make a 5,000% return in a few years like AMD had the potential to if you bought it at $1.60-$3
I'd say invest half your money into stocks returning high dividends. There's some returning 7%-15%. But just ones that look VERY stable. Ones that have remained flat or slowly risen. Dips mean they probably stopped paying dividends then as they couldn't afford to and shit is worthless.
Then... well there are some mobile silicon startups that can be worth buying because another phone CPU designer/manufacturer may buy them.
AMD is still hot. I'm expecting $25+ this year. They could hit $70 if not $100+ in late 2019 or early 2020. It's still only $15.
$15 may look like a lot when it was $1.60 at one point, but it was SEVERELY undervalued at $1.60 and it is still severely undervalued at $15(still -45 PEG).
If I had more than that $1700 to put in at that ~13.60 I would have. but I don't feel like selling my 20k of bitcoins as those could raise 10x or more as well.
Yeah I'm going to trigger a trailing stop after 19.40 for 10% of my shares and another after 23.80 for another 10%. Then I'll ride it and hope it gets around $100. Next trailing stop is going to be for a high amount as I feel it's going to get a >15% dip once it's over $65 but that people will buy right back in and rise it right up.
You think it'll get that high?
I doubt it gets much higher than 30-40 a share.
>high return (% wise)
how much $ lad
>inb4 $500
>You think it'll get that high?
Seems unlikely.
AMD has 940m outstanding shares.
Here is what their market cap breaks down to at each price.
>$19.40
18.23B
>23.80
22.37B
>$65
61.1B
>100
94B
I can't find out how many shares out they had in 2000, but looking at some charts unless they had some crazy issue of shares it would be around 330m back then, and with their peak price of about $85, they would have been valued at 28 billion , in terms of todays money that is equal to about 39.5B at their all time peak.
Right now they are sitting at about 14.5B in market cap.
Do they have room to grow ? sure
Will they issue more shares ? Maybe
Will they reach these crazy prices of $50+ bucks ? probably not.
When AMD had 10 billion in revenue, their stock price was $90 a share.
They're at what, 5 billion now? And a more stable company thanks to not also owning fabs but owning GPU development.
Shares are also typically based less on market cap versus revenue and more the $ of value they'll pay per $ in growth. They're growing.
Look at the screenshot in the previous post. Current value held is $7600.
>tfw you bought 100 shares at $2.48
AMD essentially just bought me a Ryzen and Vega system
>When AMD had 10 billion in revenue,
when was this ?
You can see all their annual reports online
ir.amd.com
They never had 10B
statista.com
> their stock price was $90 a share.
and lets not forget they had 1/3 the shares out as they do now
This is mostly to coincide with the dot come boom desu
Ya, you're right. It was 7.5 billion in 2006 which was a high year, not 10 billion. And that was when it was $40. I confused it being $90 with some other stock.
But yeah, alright, I did have some things off. It's still got a crazy low PEG. Most advisers are still bullish or neutral on it.
Dot com bust was the 1999 one.
>got in at less than $2
>only bought six shares
F U C K
how much was your trading comission
I never do under $500 trades with $7 commissions.
Should have bought more.
Bought in at 4.41 in July, I'm sitting pretty. Staying long.
...
people that can afford to buy stocks should have to be segregated from everyone else, use their own propriety expensive internet, and stay away from stealing data from us plebs.
But this time I was in since 400$
I started trading stocks when I was making $14 an hour and only had like $2500 saved.
It's free money.
Now 10 years later, I made $4000 this week shitposting on Sup Forums.
$10
So you spent a $10 trading commission on $12 of stocks?
So effectively you spent $3.66 per share. So your current return is about 475% instead of 755%.
You have to be trolling
paypal me all of yours.
Now that I remember I think I bought like 12 or 14 shares and sold half about a year ago.
I was thinking there was no way I would've spent $10 commission on $12 stock.
That's still tiny... I don't do trades of less than $500, usually $700, because $7 is 1% of $700 that eats into margins.
Yeah, I should've copped much more but I was a newfag to stocks so I felt like I had to be careful.
Sure you bought it at $1.888, but then you sold it five months later at $3.40. Which is pretty good, but not relevant eight years later.
If you're thinking about buying stocks, but don't know what you're doing, read these guides from fellow autists:
arachnoid.com
backplane.com
Then I bought 380 shares again at $2.5966 and still have them.
You know it's better to buy at $1.88, sell at $3.40, then buy again at $4.0 and sell at $6.60, then buy again at $2.59 and for it to be worth $15 than to have held onto $1.88 all that time, right?
If I held onto it instead of selling high and buying low again, I'd have may less.
>tfw poor student at the $1.6/share time with only a thousand burgers
$1000 would have gotten you $9500 worth of stock today if you spent it all on AMD stock then.

How do I buy and sell stocks?
soz I am not a Sup Forums regular now days.
I typically don't like giving investing advice to people, either. Not on particularly stocks, at least, I mean.
Most people seem to use Scotttrade. I do too. It's like a bank account but you can place market orders with it. Some use TD Ameritrade instead which I think has better tools but I think trades are like $10? Fuck they used to be like $12.
Don't invest what you wouldn't feel comfortable just burning, though. And the research does take time. But if you're just not mildly retarded you should earn more money with it than sweat labor.
I've posted using at least four different personalities each with a different story
