Why the f**k did you gamble so much on a stock you didn't know much about...

In his defence, that shit can happen to any investor on a bad day with decent capital, knowledge or not

It's only the inverse of success stories. The alternative outcome would have him asking himself why he didn't put more into it!

talking to someone last night and they mentioned that some companies pay people on Hot Copper to talk it up. and other inside trading shenanigans. and the annual report says the MD has 67mil shares given to him as options. the other directors are on decent money, but mostly made of options, so if price doubles (eg, 2c to 4c) their wage essentially doubles.

 

Also, saw a ford XRT ute 4WD drive thing on the monash yesterday. bullbar, muddflaps, 20' antennas, numberplate: IWNTVB

Decided to hold a day trade over night then was stuck on a plane next morning. 

I do more short-medium term investing these days haha

And yes didn't put a stop loss on it :(

Sigh. We have been through this. That means you only get 2c

It's penny stocks m12

This seemed quite obvious I would have thought

Companies do all kinds of shit and get away with it. ASX is a toothless tiger. There are paid downrampers on hotcopper too. A couple of guys on the 88E forum who spend all day shitcanning the share but never invest in it and you have to wonder why they do that...either bored trolls or it's their job. Doesn't make that much difference though; the market makers have way more influence than HC will ever have on a share price. Evidence of this is a lot of the posts on HC are asking why this and that occurred, lamenting an unforeseen price drop etc. It's rarely introspective discussion of trading behaviour.

in my head hot copper was like reddit for Financial Review subscribers. ...except no one makes money off reddit.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
