$Starbox Group (STBX.US)$ So looking at the technicals this is getting shorted pretty hard. I think they are trying to get the price down as low as possible before buying in. Once the whales start buying, it's going to blow up.

HopeAlways : Some of the most highly regarded stock analysts spend their days looking into opportunities in the stock market. These analysts make their money by sharing their opinions on stocks and what they believe will happen in the future. Knowing that successful investing is born in research, many new investors make their stock decisions by blindly following the opinions of analysts rather than doing their own research when making investment decisions. This can be very risky as their opinions may not be fully objective and cannot be fullly depended on for sound investment decisions.
Syuee : If investors do not do their own research, no stock analyst will be able to help them.

Many so-called stock analysts don't even invest in the stocks that they comment about.
If an investor follows those comments as if they are “ gospel sermon “, there is nothing one can do about it, for invariably stock analysts usually add a “no liability clause” at the end or at the beginning, of their statements.
Many are financial journalists. They have not delved in the numbers on the company’s annual reports.
They can be merely comments. It is not wise to invest based on other people’s opinion.
It is best to get the company’s annual report yourself and look at past performance, and future projections.
Do the senior associates own the company shares? Be careful of this, as it would be like a person who cooks and invites you to participate in the meal, yet they themselves won’t even sample the meal.
How does the cash flow looks like ? What is the size of the company’s financial obligation ? How much cash is on the books, etc ?
These and some other matters will be worth looking into, before investors lay their money down, rather than blindly following stocks analysts.

HopeAlways Syuee : The bottom line is that analysts are not working for investors. Who they work for can create biases that can may their work unreliable at best. It pays for the investor to do their own research for any investing decisions.
Syuee HopeAlways : I think one could do very well by watching Jim Cramer’s show Mad Money on CNBC.

Watch faithfully and then just do the exact opposite of what he recommends.
If he says to sell a stock, buy it. If he says to buy a stock and you own it, then sell it.

F_J_B_2022 : I'm going to make this short and sweet so anyone can understand. I am still pretty new to the market and I have learned a lot from people on YouTube.
The biggest lesson regarding these "not financial advice" advisers. If you haven't paid for their private page, you are already too late. Don't buy what they are discussing.
And the second most valuable thing I have learned from these "analysts" is that if you are listening and jump in a play with them, you better be watching and ready to sell quick. They are pump-and-dump schemes. They find stocks with good charting and they promote it to the point that thousands, if not millions, of people buy into the hype. But by that point they have their shares at a super low price. Once we start buying and the price shoots up, they are selling quick.
Don't listen to these clowns for actual buying advice. They are no different than Nancy Pelosi. Using their positions to pump a stock so that they can make profit off of their viewers.
doctorpot1 : Most analyst have a vested interest when they are giving advise. If it is 100% guaranteed to earn money, no one will ever share it with you, because once everyone knows about it, the money is gone.
Analyst who tells you to long, most likely will benefit from stock price going up thus they are trying to build momentum up. Those who attacks the company will have shorted the company and would want more panic, and more selling. Sure we may ride the momentum with their analysis, but just be wary of their hidden agenda.
However, they do provide a lot of benefit, such as highlighting of our knowledge gap. Which mean by listening to their point of view, we might uncover what we don't know we don't know. They allows us to research deeper and add them into our own model and thus making our model much stronger.
For example, every youtuber is saying that China economy will collapse as the property crisis is just like that of the 2008 financial crisis. I was very scared at first, until another youtuber pointed out that China unlike US have very tight capital control unlike US. Why does it matter? Look at Russia, its currency crashed when sanction hits them, but because they implemented capital control, now Russian dollar is way stronger then ever before. So in Chija case, they could theoretically print money out of this crisis without too big of an impact.
So by listening to different and opposing views, it just helps to stregthen our own decision.
VCSuccess HopeAlways : With predictions surrounding earnings per share, revenue, and share price, coupled with ratings from research analysts, many newcomers believe research legwork has been done for them, deciding to dive into any stock analysts deem to be a strong investment opportunity. But they shouldn't blindly follow the opinions of analysts.
DIGI MONEY : just be patient.
Rome wasn't built in a week.
witty Llama_cin : Take the advice of stock analysts with a pinch of salt
71750344 : I’m doing nothing about IPO stocks, in fact, I’m doing nothing with my regular stocks, as the market keeps sliding downwards by irresponsible decisions by this Administration. Therefore, I’m letting all my stocks ride…
