I on the wheat penny investment program, my garage is almost full of wheat pennies, I know I have the market share of wheat pennies.

 
It's become quite clear to me that I'm a savant when it comes to the Stock Market. Every stock pick I make turns to gold. If you would have listened to me, you would have:

1.) Tripled your money on Best Buy stock (had you purchased it a year ago).
If you invested $5,000 in Best Buy when I suggested you, you would have 327 shares in the company. That value today, would be worth $13,246.
Perhaps accounting isn't for you.

Twitter (45.62) (60.57) / +32%

T-Mobile (26.46) (32.60) / +23%
Amazon (388.35) (395.80) +2%

We're currently up 13%, I've got a few more GNARLY picks for anyone who is looking to ride the wave! Just let me know and we can pool something together. ;)

How much money do you have personally invested in this "Eminence" fund? And specifically which stocks do you have you money in and in what percentages?

Technically speaking, I only have about $840 invested in Walgreens stock that was purchased at a 10% discount. It's worth about $956 right now.

so you have nothing invested in those other companies and the only reason you have Walgreens stock is because you got it risk free via their SPP. Is that a fair assessment?

Only reason I have Walgreens is because it gives me a 10% discount. Assuming it doesn't go down, that's instant profit. Once I've held it for 3 months, I can officially sell out. That's when I will start gobbling up stock. February 27th, I can sell my first $130 or so of the stock I bought.

I assume I can go straight through Net Fidelity to move it into another company.

I would handle all buying and selling; unless you REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted me to sell out of an interest.

Lots of stock to be gobbled up with $130. I hope the NYSE can handle the trades.

https://www.fidelity.com/trading/commissions-margin-rates$7.95 per trade. That's $15.90 to move into another position. That's your 10% discount and then some profit if the stock didn't decrease. By "gobbling" that probably means more fees(all jokes welcomed).

If you knew the slightest about compound interest, you would leave the money alone and just forget about it. That means no more threads. If anything sell some to have cash on hand.

What? Not really, I've got 10 shares right now (and should have about 20 more at the end of the month) that have gone up approximately $70+ NET. If I sold all those share and moved them into another interest, I'm still up around $55.00. What are you talking about?

Well, I gave you all the chance to join me. Now I guess you'll just have to watch me rack up serious cash (unless you want to join me last minute). This thread follows my 100% authentic stock portfolio. It's small now but it's only going to grow as we progress through the year. As of right now, here are my positions:

HEMP INC

761 Shares purchased @ .046 per share
Current Value: $35.38

Walgreen Company (Waitress Stock)

10.632 Shares purchased @ $52.14 per share

Current Value: $624.21

MARKET ANALYSIS:

I plan on acquiring more marijuana stocks because as more states legalize, the market is only going to grow larger and larger. When Colorado legalized marijuana, most stocks pertaining to marijuana doubled. I expect a superficial rise in marijuana stocks when Washington legalizes again, as well.

I picked HEMP to begin with because there are a lot of practical uses for HEMP and this particular company has the market cornered pretty well, I looked into it and they actually have fields upon fields of marijuana growing in China. I assume they'll be able to turn more profits once it gets legalized. If I hold this stock for any length of time (365 Days+) I'm pretty confident it will grow over $0.046 per share.

I plan on selling some of my Walgreens stock in a few months to acquire some other stocks. But I'm fairly bullish on it. I think it could reach around $68.00 a share sometime this year. Walgreens Pharmacy is pretty dominant from what I see at work. I get a 10% discount on this stock as well, so this is more or less a clever way for me to avoid transactions fees when buying other stocks.

STOCKS I'M WATCHING:

GreenGro Technology (GRNH) - Another marijuana stock, they specialize in indoor and outdoor agricultural science of growing marijuana. I'm not extremely bullish on them but this is a type of stock that I think has potential to rise on hype alone. It's only trading at about $.40 a share, so I could scoop a bunch up and hope that it doubles in a few years.

Plug Power (PLUG) - This one I ripped straight from a few of the members on here and was completely sold on after reading this article. They sell superpowered forklifts or something. The appeal of this stock is that it's only trading at about $3.40 and once was worth $12.00 a share. It wouldn't surprise me to see this stock reach $6.00 - 7.00 a share if you remained patient with it. It's cheap enough to easily offset transaction fees.

Organovo Holdings (ONVO) - This is a 3D Printing Company that develops technology to print organs. This stock is going to skyrocket once the 3D Printing hype reaches full steam. I don't know how long until they get something that can be done medically on a daily basis but $10.07 a share, you could do much worse, imo.

Monsanto Company (MON) - This is the company that grows the majority of the genetically modified crops that people eat all over the world. This to is a blue chip stock as I imagine they're going to continue to grow and sell their products on a large scale for the next 10+ years. It's definitely a bit pricier at $113.67 per share but is definitely a super power.

World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) - This stock (yes, it's a wrestling company) has ballooned up from about $13.00 a share to $19.00 a share in the past month and I think it's a fluke. I would personally look to short this stock as I don't think it's going to stay over $19.00 a share by the end of the year. A lot of hype is coming from this new WWE Network they released which I think longterm may cost them money.

Facebook (FB) - Facebook isn't going anywhere and this is the type of stock (along with Twitter) where the sky is the limit in its value. It's currently selling at $58.00 a share and I wish I would have bought in much earlier. I expect this stock to continue to rise and wouldn't be surprised to see it worth $75.00 a share at some point.

T-Mobile (TMUS) - From what I can see in the cell phone market, T-Mobile is the only real threat to Verizon Wireless. Their stock has jumped up from $26.00 a share to $33.00 a share since I've been watching it and it's low-price with high upside make me think this will be the next stock I acquire when I sell off some of my Waitress Stock. This can be a $45.00 stock.

Best Buy (BBY) - For me, it's not complicated to see what Best Buy needs to as a company. They need to close a few stores that are underperforming and really start pushing product online similar to Amazon. The stock is trading at about $24.00 a share but after getting burnt on it, I don't think investors are going to have confidence in it anytime soon. I think it's going to drop to around $19.00 a share and that's my magic number to start buying it hand over fist.

Verizon Communications (VZ) - Verizon offers the best cell phone service of any company out there, bar none. They have the widest network and best signal. Because of this, Verizon stock is always going to be worth something. However, there are a few other services barking up the tree and are a real threat to Verizon. The stock has been falling as of recently and currently sits at $47.60 a share. If it drops between $40.00 - 42.00 it's definitely a high priority for me. I don't anticipate them going anywhere for the next couple of years.

3D Systems Corporations (DDD) - This is a stock that I wanted to invest in last-year that I had to tearfully watch gain in value while I had no money to invest in. It literally split then nearly tripled in value. It's about $86.00 a share right now and I would ideally like to purchase some at $80.00 a share but am pretty confident this stock will be worth over $100.00 at that point. I also anticipate a split at some point.

 
ONVO is not printing organs. They are printing organ tissue that will allow medical testing on it instead of having to use actual organs.

This can be a $45.00 stock.
I think that move corresponds to the speculation that TMUS will be acquired vs. having risen on fundamentals. If that does not pan out, it could retreat just as quickly. It does seem like Softbank (which I own) is serious about considering an offer, but could still face regulatory approval hurdles.

 
Best Buy has no competition really now, but they are still floundering. If they don't switch their online model soon, they may just go away, no?

Hemp closed at .0475. Congrats on your $1.14 gain. SELL MORTIMER, SELL!!!

 
Walgreens has been active today. I could see it gaining a dollar or so in the next few days combined.

Hemp stock is struggling to stay positive, slight chance this stock doesn't go for a loss.

Organovo was down to $9.90, would have been a decent buy. It's a $14.00 stock with upside as 3D Printing hype grows.

WWE went up $0.60 today. It's going up WAY too fast. I need to determine the peak and short like crazy.

Best Buy rebounded a dollar. It's big stock collapse was only a $10.00 so those who lost gain 10% back today. Maybe it'll rebound?

3D Printing back up to nearly $90.00. This stock will be $100.00 soon, it just has to. I am willing to blow my Tax Return on this stock.

so you are interested in buying a house and instead of saving for a down payment, are putting all of your money into stocks. Do I have that right?

Also, how much credit card/other debt do you have? If you are putting your available capital to stocks and gaining say 8% but paying 24% interest in credit card debt, your minimal gains are getting eaten up with interest.

Think before you speak, phrozen. This dude now has Walgreen's money rolling in. No one's poor when they're making $10 an hour.

so you are interested in buying a house and instead of saving for a down payment, are putting all of your money into stocks. Do I have that right?Also, how much credit card/other debt do you have? If you are putting your available capital to stocks and gaining say 8% but paying 24% interest in credit card debt, your minimal gains are getting eaten up with interest.
Yeah, but I can always sell the stock. I have two cards:

Card 1: $1,500 in debt.

Card 2: $600 in debt

I've got $1,000+ in Walgreens Stock accrued, $300 from a Fantasy League dude has yet to pay me, and a hefty tax return coming.

All my debt should be minimized in the next month or so.

 
So basically you need ONVO to go up ~20% just to break even.
Something like that, I thought the value was there and don't mind holding this particular stock for a year or so. I completely understand that I'll need to start trading in higher volumes to yield real profits.

Starting in March, I should have $400+ worth of Walgreens Stock coming at me each month that I'll be free to trade and buy stock in other companies with.

 
My HEMP stock is doing decent today, up 12%. If I would have purchased twice as much as I initially did I'd actually be seeing profits right now. Extreme buyers remorse, atm.
