According to this article (https://www.marketplace.org/2021/08/04/what-freight-rail-tells-us-about-the-economy/), Warren Buffett was once being asked which economic indicator he would choose if he were stranded on a desert island, and with access to only one set of economic statistics (e.g. consumer confidence, inflation, unemployment, etc.), and he picked freight rail traffic. The reason is that when rail is doing well, it usually means the eco...

As an investor, guess that most of you guys have been through major and minor market crash. When the market is clouded by nagetive atmosphere and stocks prices went straight down, it is commonly called "dip".
Every coin has two sides. Sometimes a dip come after appalling financial crisis. But if we see it from different angle, it also provide perfect buy-in opportunities for investors to ape in.
As mentioned above, there are thousands kind of dip ...

The apparent short squeeze that began last week in $Longeveron (LGVN.US)$ is continuing on Wednesdays as the share price has been up 122%.
Among speculative biotech stocks, Longeveron continues to outperform the market by a wide margin. Trading at only $3 per share a week ago, shares of LGVN stock has skyrocketed to more than $40 per share.
Some investors relate the upward trend with the FDA approval of their Lomacel-B drug for a Rare Pediatric Disease. But is that the main reason?
Some people said this stock is like $Biora Therapeutics (PROG.US)$ 's bigger younger brother.
Do you agree? Are you going to make any move?

$Zoom Video Communications (ZM.US)$ might have been the poster child for tech companies that saw business boom during the Covid-19 pandemic as millions of employees worldwide fled their offices and began working at home. And that need for reliable communications technology in order for people to do their jobs drove demand for Zoom's (ZM) services so much that on Oct. 19, 2020, the company's stock price hit an all-time high close of $568.34 a share.
What a difference a year makes.
On Tuesday, Zoom's (ZM) shares plunged more than 16%, to around $200 a share. At that price, Zoom's market cap of $59.6 billion has fallen by approximately $77 billion over the past 13 months.
Zoom (ZM) suffered from a case of the company not being able to win for losing. The issue was Zoom (ZM) forecasting more growth ahead, but not at the levels that have driven its business over much of the last two years.
The company said that for its current, fiscal fourth quarter, it expects revenue to grow just 19% over the same period a year ago, to between $1.051 billion $1.053 billion. That growth forecast looks even more striking when noting that it is barely higher than the $1.051 billion Zoom (ZM) reported for its third quarter, which was 35% higher than year-ago period.
It's no surprise what's behind Zoom's (ZM) growth issues. More companies are planning on having their employees returning to the office on at least a part-time basis in early 2022. This could, in theory, result in less usage of Zoom's (ZM) video services since workers would be meeting more often in person. Just last week, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) said its employees would begin coming back to company offices starting Feb. 1.
Speaking on a conference call on Monday, Zoom Chief Financial Officer Kelly Steckelberg acknowledged some of the issues the company expects to face in the coming year.
"We're still having these online customers which are the most volatile [and] many of them are still on monthly contracts," Steckelberg said. "And as they are adjusting to the environment and figuring out how the future of work is going to be for them individually, We expect that to be the challenging headwind."
The number, and quality of Zoom's (ZM) customers raised some questions on Wall Street. For example, the company said that for its third quarter, it had 512,000 customers with more than 10 employees, an 18% increase from the third quarter a year ago.
However, Bank Of America Securities analyst Brad Sills noted that number of customers rose just 1% from the second quarter of this year, which Sills said was "a record low" for quarter-over-quarter growth.
Sills cut his rating on Zoom's (ZM) to neutral from buy, saying that "a broader slowdown in both new customer growth and expansion activity, and still heightened online [customer] churn provide little certainty as to the bottom for [customer] growth."
At Wells Fargo, analyst Michael Turrin left his equal weight rating on Zoom's stock unchanged, but cut his price target to $245 a share from $275. Turrin also said that the issues surrounding Zoom's (ZM) growth prospects are likely to linger well into 2022.
"We expect these headwinds to weigh on results over the next several quarters, keeping [Zoom] shares range-bound until clearer signs around what's next for Zoom post [its] hyper growth [to] emerge."
Still, not all views on Zoom (ZM) were completely negative. Mizuho Securities analyst Siti Panigrahi cut his price target on Zoom's stock to $300 a share from $350, but made no change to his buy rating. Panigrahi said that while Zoom's (ZM) post-pandemic growth profile "remains somewhat unclear", the company's Zoom Phone, Zoom Rooms and Video Engagement center "remain integral to hybrid work environments" for the foreseeable future.
"Zoom sees continued growth in enterprise offsetting the online segment amid continued adaptation to hybrid work norms," Panigrahi said. "We continue to expect online to decline as a percentage of revenue amid post-pandemic normalcy and greater enterprise [market] penetration."
In search of a new source of revenue, Zoom (ZM) recently said it would start running ads on its free, basic video service.

People cannot live without greed, because greed is the driving force for profit, but they must know how to control their own greed. When you want to get 100, lower your target a little bit, and you should take action by 350.
Nor can people lack decisiveness; if they continue to be interrupted, they will suffer from chaos. When you're swinging left and right about one thing, you might as well lower your profit mindset a little bit; this will be less troublesome.
Buying and selling with this mentality often benefits a lot. Over time, developing habits can help you navigate the stock market.

Thanksgiving is a time for food, friends and family. It's also a time to pause, reflect on our lives and think about what we're thankful for.
The question we want to ask you on this Thanksgiving day is--What are you grateful for during your investing journey? Is it your supporting family? Your investing pals? Your profittable stock? A book you read? Maybe a guru? The list goes on and on. There are so many things that we appreciate and feel grateful deep down in our heart. Why don't you take this chance to say a big thank-you now!?
What stocks are you most thankful for this year? Or on the contrary, which stocks teach you a lesson? Be it success or setback, there's always a reason for us to be grateful because it made us grow stonger and become more experienced in investing.
Trading or investing is never an easy job. Thankfully, our family or friends provides emotional support during challenging time, encouragement along investing life's twists and turns, and the comfort of being understood and accepted for what you want to do with life.
Do you have a guru that guides you at the beginning of your investing journey? Do you find any book that's helpful for you to make a decision? There are countless online lessons and books you can turn to when you are at a loss. Which one do you want to express your thanks to?
By the time we decided to invest and started to learn from the ground up, we made a brave decision and hard choice. Don't forget that we are a courageous man/ woman and we should feel thankful for that.

If lucky enough to find or be given $1M to invest I'm afraid that at my age (55) I wouldn't go crazy with aggressive return seeking investments. They very first thing I would do is consult a licensed financial advisor.
Whenever you invest, you should have a goal in mind. Is this long term? Do I need dividend income? Do I want fast returns? Can I afford a loss?
When I was in my 20's my needs were to establish myself with a diverse portfolio so I invested heavily in aggressive growth funds. While volatile, the attraction of high returns sold me. In my 20's I had time to recoup any losses. I started investments in high growth aggressive mutual funds.
By my 30's I still had plenty of working years ahead but had been burned. At this point I changed my portfolio to be closer to 70% aggressive growth funds and 30% more conservative stocks and bonds.
You should evaluate your investment goals regularly. How much loss is acceptable to you? Base your investments off of YOUR priorities and needs.
Young with plenty of time till retirement? Chase those high return unicorns my friend!
Close to retirement? You probably need to rein it in unless the gift horse million is of no impact to your savings. If you're fully funded fir retirement then go crazy like you're 20!
If you're not fully funded, take what you need and invest in conservative growth funds. No crazy high returns but no crazy loss of everything either.
Look, it's all up to you. Do you want to be eating cat food or caviar when you retire?
Me? I'm a caviar kind of gal so I'm going to get a pro to take my million and make it pay off without loss.
Here's to all of our caviar dreams!
