So based on today’s news you still sticking with them ? Holding on to losses is a pretty noob error

Couldn't find the ignore button (first person I'm putting on ignore in about 15 years here) but feel inclined to respond as I regretfully saw your post. You responded 2 minutes after my post so I think my 'biting' is a little rich.
I don't know what your problem is, I really don't. My portfolio is up approx 40% YTD and I have made many correct calls in this thread. Every call, right or wrong, I've owned up to. I told you that I'd lost a lot on CARD (£10k ish?) so am not ashamed of taking a hit. If I feel there's a bad call I've made, I say so.
It seems to me that you get awfully triggered by thoughts about this one share. I don't know how simply I can say this: if you think a post on some obscure hardware forum is going to have any material impact on a share price of a multi-million pound co, you need to get real. "Shill" for a company this size makes you sound very naïve.
I'm done engaging with you. A bear case is fine - "lol Greggs" isn't. Grow up, and stop getting so worked up over a pasty shop. If it satisfies you, my position is now approx £100 quid in the red; hardly enough to lose sleep over. The end of my taking part in this discussion. All the best.
Edit: I see you've jabbed at me again. I see what it is now, it's the amount of money that triggers you! How sad. One day you'll get there mate, one day...
It was a light hearted comment. ‘Ignore the news and wait it out’. Not sure why you responded like that if you still believe in it. And I don’t see any reason not to doubt you
Don’t block people because you don’t agree. It makes for a boring discussion forum.

Because I believe it is undervalued stock
So say that. There's no correlation between value and share price.
Yes boss
Have to agree a lot of lth is a bad call. I'm guilty of it. Holding to try and not lose out
So far I'm up on my ezj and av.
I'm actually more positive on ezj now pandemic is subsiding in eu (I don't think spike is going to be too bad)
I've well and truly missed the boat on tesla. I now think there are less risky opportunities.
To double now tesla would have to get to nearly a trillion dollars. Certainly possible. But in bitcoin territory now.
Nio is tempting. But I dunno.

I see you're in the airline game as well
I still thing grg is something I wouldn't go into.
If offices do go in any significant form going forwards that's only bad news for anything like grg. Best those shares would get is back to pre pandemic.
If I were betting, I'd say that's not going to happen.

I am thinking for long term hold, 12-18 months EJZ (easyjet), BOO (boohoo) and NIO. Also might add in some technology shares, AMD, Intel and NVIDIA too, all have busy years this and next full of product launches. The only worry for me on USA shares they are at record highs but is a correction due.
Also maybe a small holding in CINE too but feel cinema world is a gamble, could triple or could be lower.

Greggs is something I've always pondered, but stayed away from as I don't feel it's really worth it. However I do think the company is here to stay, regardless of what happens, so if COVID hammers their share price I might jump in for a little giggle.
Easyjet and the like could be great buys. I think the bottom is gone. I'd top up if I could. But I'll only do that if they drop below 600
I'm also in ezj for 2-3 years until mortgage renewal time I suppose.
But that time I suspect most of the loss will be gained back
May join you in nio.
Well put my money where my mouth is and loaded up on EZJ and BOO. Also put a couple of grand each into CINE and AML, yep back into AML as got in last time at 48 and sold at 68 and just got in at 56.
Will add some NIO later once market is open and moving to see if it back tracks to 17/18 for an entry point.
Now just thinking about whether to buy into some AMD, NV and/or Intel shares too.
Just the tip.
Do you mean EasyJet? I loaded up there with 5k worth, if it back track back to 500's I will top up as I know it could but feel its upside potential in next 12-24 months is around £2 a share, so any top-up opportunities I shall take as I went in at 640p.
I've made really good money on Boohoo on its swings when the scandal about underpaid workers was up in the air, now put £5000 there too as I feel they will have amazing sale results being an online business come September 30th.

Intel is the cheapest out of that lot but of course might be cheap for a reason. By cheap I mean on P/E ratio in this case (9 vs something like 80 for Nvidia and 160 for AMD). Atm I think it's due another drop in short to medium term. You're probably in a decent situation to know their potential in the coming years
. Intel also pays a divi of 2.67% although that is not guaranteed. But, if good chance of a recovery, earning 2.67% just to sit on it is something at least.

Intel was cheap in the teens, wish I'd never have sold. Doubt its really a sell here either but in contrast AMD is gaining which imo seems to have made it too popular. Its hard to judge a stock which will grow because the PE will look wrong as its a rear view mirror .

Very true, gonna watch what NIO opens at this afternoon and will look to put a couple of grand gamble into it for long term, as the upside could be huge, the downside could be risky but hence putting a couple of grand in it but I think the risk is minimal considering they are delivery cars in China and sales are on the up.

Yep, definitely agree, P/E ratio is useful but of course when a company is growing well the earnings will catch up with the share price. AMD has been around 150 or so for a while now. Still, the risks can be higher, one set of bad results for example that the market doesnt like then higher chance of a correction I think as the future becomes a little more cloudy than it was, if that makes sense. High expectations priced in.
I hold a position in all three, with intel being smallest given uncertainty at the moment but I cannot write them off
