yeah, i'm honestly not sure how i feel about it

i had been calling a sale for years and was glad to see it at first, but the more i think about it i'm a little sad that it's after the scandals and honestly (even with a 35% hike in price) microsoft is getting it for a steal; they were up in the low hundreds and mid 90's before all the sexual harassment stuff came out and then just tanked

funny part is i don't even have that much in ATVI, maybe 25-30 grand? but it was the first stock i ever bought when i was in school and still rocking D2 open bnet in like '04 so i've always had a soft spot for it lol



this

told my sister in law that every xbox i buy going forward better come with CoD and D2 pre-installed

You play CoD? Pm me your name on there. I only do warzone BR though.

It is, objectively, a shitty game full of bugs.

.... but all of my irl friends play WZ, so it's the best place to socialize

It's free though, pretty much its only saving grace

I'd consider that a lot for an individual position, how much do you have in your single largest holding if you dont mind me asking? That's about 10x what I have in my single largest lol my max was about $3k each in tsla, etsy, docu, brk.b prior to the recent tech selloff. Most of my money goes into total stock market and S&P 500 index funds.

I wish I had liquidity to buy... or had just bought at a different time

But for all I know it's about to dive even worse lol.

I get it's all about time in the market, but I hate getting shit on right after I buy lol

Down about 10% :wallbash:

Considering this myself. Can’t decide if it’s worth the commission percentage to do this, considering my mutual funds are absolutely killing it.

I also enjoy investing and taking an active role in building my wealth. But our portfolios are getting so large we should think harder about diversifying and doing some long term planning.

The deal will close mid 2023 so you're gonna have a long time of market ups and downs to absorb in the meanwhile, plus market regulators are going to jump all over this from the antitrust/monopoly aspect.

Don't get me wrong, I'm positive on the acquisition from an $msft shareholder perspective, at this point i'd rather own straight $msft than $atvi, and with a 52.50 cost basis (bought on "is this an april fools joke?" day) I can lock in a healthy longterm gain. But yes I think that is exactly the fear lol


I'll sell once the Activision shareholders approve the deal and the spread narrows.

Just buy bitcoin and hold for 10 years.

Fuck stonks (but Max that ira)


Yeah let's see how it does when the Fed starts ratcheting up interest rates and people start to need real dollars to make payments on all the debt they loaded up on while interest was practically 0%.

Debt is what inflated BTC and I think it is interest which will deflate it. Over 10 years though, fact is we are in an inflationary debt monetary system and BTC is fixed therfore deflationary by nature - so over 10 years yeah you'll probably win - but it's gonna be bumpy.
