$Cyren (CYRN.US)$ SLOW & steady

Renowned private equity firm TPG has submitted paperwork for an initial public offering in the United States, according to a regulatory filing on Thursday. The firm expects to list on the Nasdaq under the symbol "TPG."
It didn't reveal the number of shares it plans to sell or the indicative price range, but knowledgeable sources told The Wall Street Journal in June that it could be valued at $10 billion.
J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, TPG Capital BD LLC and BofA Securities are the lead underwriters for the offering.
Founded in 1992 by David Bonderman and Jim Coulter, TPG was launched as Texas Pacific Group in Mill valley, California and is known for its leveraged buyouts.
The firm is an early investor in businesses such as Uber Technologies Inc. and Airbnb Inc. According to its SEC filing, it had $109 billion in assets under management as of Sept. 30.
TPG is one of the last big private equity firms to join the stock market. Its main peers have gone public already, including Apollo Global Management (AINV) , Blackstone (BX) , Carlyle Group (CG) and KKR (KKR) . Their stocks have skyrocketed this year, which have risen between 43% and 94% so far this year.
Overall, TPG has investments in more than 280 companies. The firmhas invested across sectors from retail to healthcare. Its first major investment was in the then bankrupt Continental Airlines in 1993. Its portfolio includes Airbnb Inc (ABNB.O), Burger King, Uber Technologies Inc (UBER.N) and Spotify Technology SA (SPOT.N).
TPG has also launched several sector and region focused funds, including TPG Biotech and a growth equity platform which invested in online survey company SurveyMonkey (MNTV.O).
The company’s entertainment investments have included CAA, DirecTV, Entertainment Partners, Fandom, Spotify, STX Entertainment, Univision and Vice Media. CAA, for its part, in September announced plans to acquire ICM Partners.
TPG was also among the first private equity firms to invest in China, its website showed.
TPG generated revenue of $659.08 million and $685.12million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 4%.
Fees and other revenues decreased by $148.5 million or 14% during thefiscal year 2019 ended December 31 and 2020. The decrease primarily consists of reductions in management fees and incentive fees, which was partially offset by an increase in transaction fees.

The $Nasdaq (NDAQ.US)$ is up 21.17% so far this year, $Apple (AAPL.US)$ , $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$ , $Alphabet-C (GOOG.US)$, $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ and $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ are the top five returns so far this year; Excluding the top five contributors, the NASDAQ is up just 5.79% for the year. With the emergence of the new Omicron strain, concerns have risen. As we saw on Black Friday, uncertainty can lead investors to sell.

$Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ recently both semicon have shown signs of weakness. As I said in my video, bearish signs have been spotted. Should you be entering now to average down? I shared all that in my video linked below.
Do take time to watch the video and know what to expect this week and also your entry and exit points.
As always, trade safe & invest wise!

$AbbVie (ABBV.US)$ it’s too expensive now haha

I think the price target is a little stretched, BUT-- many are predicting that Humira going off patent will destroy $AbbVie (ABBV.US)$. I think the newer drugs getting approval daily will nullify the ABBV is "doomed" naysayers. ABBV going higher....
Long ABBV
LOVE the dividend!$!

Last time I selected 10 high-dividend stocks in S&P 500. And this time I choose S&P 500 stocks with market cap higher than 200bn because mature companies are the most likely to pay dividends.
$Exxon Mobil (XOM.US)$ $Verizon (VZ.US)$ $Chevron (CVX.US)$ $AbbVie (ABBV.US)$ $Coca-Cola (KO.US)$

$AbbVie (ABBV.US)$ Upgraded to buy?
Seems a day late and a dollar short if you ask me.
I've held on to my shares of AbbVie ever since it was spun off Abbott Labs on 1/2/13.
I used to think 13 was a bad luck number, but now I'm not so sure.
AbbVie has done nothing but rise in price and raise its dividend ever since it was spun off Abbott Labs.
I received my AbbVie dividend check in the mail a few days ago.
When I saw it, I started to sing: "AbbVie, how I love you, how I love you, my dear old AbbVie."
