Looking at possibly placing a market order and getting in on NVTA stock this week. Looking for companies/stock currently undervalued and this could be one. Increased approval of genetic testing could move this company.
The last stock tip I gave on CP was for Canopy Growth and it's currently trading up 120% from the post I made in August. https://seekingalpha.com/instablog/4...update-invitae https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/...-under-10.aspx |

I built myself some pretend portfolios on etrade over the weekend and made ones for different sectors. I set them up to show price changes over the last 30 days and the one that stood out was the oil and gas stocks all "up" across the board. The next best were the financial and banking stocks as well some steel stocks. The pharmaceutical stocks were spotty.

Great company, know them well. Preventative diagnostics are a tough sell however, and there are a lot of similar players in that game. Wishing them, and you, the best. Here's hoping they go through the roof! |

Humble brag on savings this year but the wife and I each put 10% into our 401k, we each maxed out our Roth IRAs(2x $5,500) and I was able to fully fund my HSA account ($3,400). The "leftover" money I put into my brokerage account for some small purchases of individual stocks and could be considered play money, although I'd prefer not to lose it. So realistically, this would be a purchase of $1-2k of stock for NVTA. Nothing major that will have me lose sleep at night, but a strong outlook on a company that continues to increase revenue and broader research in this area. Most of my purchases in my brokerage account are rather small compared to my overall portfolio, since I try to fund my 401k and Roth heavily first. |

Lew, what do you think about buying Bank Of America? It’s a dividend and it’s under $30

If BAC is getting a noticeable chunk of revenue from mortgage fees, might be something to keep an eye on as interest rates increase.

BAC is up 12.29% last 30 days. It's ranked #4 in the Financial portfolio I put together last weekend to measure 30 day movement in that sector. It's a big player in a shit load of mutual funds.

Yup. I’ve got 3 that I’m keeping my eye on:
Bank of America Nvidia-owns the GPU business and has dominated sales. Grew 30% last year and will continue to rise. AppFolio-zero debt in this company. Expanding customer base that keeps growing. Already won some awards..and their CEO got 100% rating on Glassdoor. Seems to really be going in the right direction. Can’t decide which one to choose |

I can't bring myself to invest in BAC. that company is ethically bankrupt, and it routinely has law suits crop up.

Yeah. I’d need to see a regulatory review of them before I bought anything. You’d think with interest rates starting to creep up bank profitability would look favorable. There might be a reason their stock is down.

Energous, Ticker symbol (WATT) just announced they developed a wireless charger for phones. Stock is up 98% right now. Might pull back before the close as investors may short but it may have some legs for longer term.
Edit: up 120% now Got in at 17.21 Now at 19.43 put in a stop loss at 18.50. I've moved the stop loss up 3 times. LOL Last edited by Hog's Gone Fishin; 12-27-2017 at 01:41 PM.. |

I keep waiting for the day that my wife looks at my stock portfolio and says, "You have stock in WHAT?" I've got stock in companies that make bombers, sugary drinks, guns, mines in virgin forests, gender-offensive advertisements, fake credit accounts in senior citizens' names, Alaskan oil wells, private prisons, and pretty much anything else you can think of. If it's a bad behavior, I assume it's a growth opportunity. |

A lot of people like it is a stock. It does seem undervalued in the current climate of stocks (and the dividend is nice) but banks can be risky. I personally get enough exposure to banks in a mutual fund in my Roth IRA, so I have little want to place addition money in that sector. |
