What do you think about USO ?  Think oil will go up in May / June?  Break $14?
Oil did a nice move from $42.40 to $66.50 since the beginning of the year, a good uptrend, but better to see if does correct a little here for a better entry price. A little overbought here.

Nice! You don't think it's worth holding for longer? Or do you anticipate a dip to get back in on?

I trade short term, my average holding is days to weeks, but sometimes when I see a strong winner I keep it and use a trailing stop.

Interesting read. Posted here rather than interesting articles, as it is more investment related than of general public interest.

Quote
The reason companies aren’t investing more aggressively in plant and equipment and technology is BECAUSE we have the most accommodative monetary policy in the history of the world, with the easiest money to borrow that corporations have ever seen. Why in the world would management take the risk — and it’s definitely a risk — of investing for real growth when they are so awash in easy money that they can beat their earnings guidance with a risk-free stock buyback? Why in the world would management take the risk — and it’s definitely a risk — of investing for GAAP earnings when they are so awash in easy money that they can hit their pro forma narrative guidance by simply buying profitless revenue? Why in the world would companies take any risk at all when the Fed has eliminated any and all negative consequences for playing it safe?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Yes, very overbought, up from $14 in 2017 to $89, entry here is a very high risk.If you like it I'll wait for a pullback, important to look at the risk reward ratio.

IMO buying a stock before earnings is more betting than investing (though you could make the case that the line is already blurred)

Agree, can make or lose big, but it is a flip of a coin. I always exit a trade at least 3 days before earnings.

What's the shock? A business that old and they still didnt figure out how to be profitable?  The drivers aren't happy with the pay, yet the company is still losing money. Imagine if they start paying the drivers even more...

They are selling the dream of autonomous cars.

...which at that point forces Uber to rely solely on Google for their Waze/Google Maps data/integration.. and Google will gently turn around with their back facing Uber and officially launch Waymo... It’s a checkmate.

When your competitors only path to profitability depends on your proprietary data, you pretty much won the game.
