Well, f***!

And then two more of my biggest holdings:

It’s just certain that Fortum’s stock is broken :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Gel-heads told to sell at 13 euros, then at 14 euros etc. and still a sell recommendation. Goldman Sachs’ gel-headed geniuses’ target is 13 € …:laughing:

Could it be related to Uniper’s power plants in Sweden? Yesterday’s result was absolutely terrible, and I thought Fortum would drop to between 15-16 euros. The winter weather forecast also doesn’t predict any champagne popping.

That’s some serious performance.

Now I had to lighten my position a bit around the €19 mark, on the AOT side purely for tax reasons. For the OST, I’ll have to buy a bit more again, if it perhaps takes a breather soon…

But certainly not one of my worst investments.

My head exploded watching the decline when Putin started expanding his territory. I slammed my portfolio shut and didn’t glance its way for nearly three years… I just read Pahkasika to avoid all financial news. Now the wounds have healed enough that we’re chasing money again.

Sometimes I do feel a pang of regret when I watch Alphabet’s rise from the sidelines. This was in my portfolio; I sold it five years ago. It has risen +257% since I sold it.

Honestly, I would never have believed in such growth. Well, there’s no point worrying about these things, but this thread is suitable for expressing surprise and wonder. :smiley:

Alphabet has long traded at a discount compared to the rest of Mag7. At some point, such imbalances typically correct themselves. It’s hard to see why Alphabet would have a lower P/E ratio than, say, Meta or Apple.

Another fact that hasn’t been widely publicized: Alphabet has been the world’s most profitable company for some time, measured by net income over the last 12 months.

And growth is still around 15%. Growth potential is still available. AI, self-driving cars, TPUs are still in their early stages.

As I understand it, despite the stock’s rocketing performance, Alphabet still trades at the lowest P/E ratio among the Mag7, meaning it might still be a good time to jump on board.

The US real estate sector is complete nuclear waste for the market right now (or has been since 2022). Such reactions occur to earnings beats and raised guidance :roll_eyes: Of course, the entire sector also took a beating yesterday even with interest rate cuts :grin:

If this happens, I won’t even know what to do with myself and how to celebrate. For me, this is one of the biggest holdings in my portfolio and I loaded up heavily even before the war started :upside_down_face: At its worst, it probably showed -70% in the portfolio, now only -6% so let’s just keep going :sweat_smile: If and when it breaks even, a slice will definitely go on sale immediately.

This OST cornerstone is starting to make me sweat. 2000 shares and over ten grand in paper gains. And I should have the patience to sit and collect dividends. Should I lighten up or not… I don’t f***ing know… :laughing:

Tomorrow is dividend day for Nordea €15.00 and Fortum €20.00 ex-dividend :sparkles::partying_face: Such an earnings disappointment rally this time.

Today’s close -18.25% Wonderful :unamused_face: It didn’t go that badly. Not at all. Tomorrow would be payday. If anything is left after loan repayments and emptying Lidl, it wouldn’t be a bad option to put the rest into this. A truly high-quality company with a brilliant future ahead, at an 18% discount. Damn, tax refunds only come in December.

Kongsberg’s result was by no means bad, but with that valuation, it cannot afford to fall short of expectations. Forecasts will likely be cut, and before today’s sell-off, EV/EBIT ntm was approx. 27x. P/E 33x. A company specializing in subsea operations, which has also been discussed on the forum (:wink: ), operates in the same sector, is growing faster, and has significantly higher margins.

A sharp decline indeed, but not entirely undeserved in my opinion. I eagerly await the peer’s result (especially regarding the discovery segment).

I just have to comment because I’m also annoyed by the timing of your purchase :squinting_face_with_tongue:. OMS Energy has been on my radar for a long time too, and it’s a good company. Back on board at 5.50-5.40 if it drops there, a safer buying point would of course be 4.70-4.50 but I don’t personally believe it will drop that low… Let’s follow :slightly_smiling_face:

C’est la vie. At least the company is making money and the odds are still moderate, despite the wild rally. Maybe it will still recover. What bothers me more is Blacksky, which has dropped 40% in 2 weeks, and my own position is over €26,000. :man_shrugging: My finger was already on the sell button when the stock hit $32, but I didn’t do it. Today the stock broke the $20 mark, on its way down.

I myself sold in the spring with a small profit, as I couldn’t stomach the ±5% daily fluctuation.

Has anyone been reading X or WSB? It smells like there’s some AI hype pumping going on here.

Surely a company this predictable wouldn’t just surge like this for no reason.
