Pretty much.
At least I provide some useful information.

I do get a laugh from your Twitter feed that I just revisited.

I like these two quotes within a month of each other....

"My unpopular opinion. I've wrestled with this a lot.

I'm no longer interested in Oil stocks at any price.
They are coal. They are the past.
They will never get the multiple expansion."

Then....

"I can sense the US admin's panic with every tick higher in oil.
This is a poker game in some respects, and in tapping the SPR, and pleas to OPEC, Biden has shown his cards.
Oil is going much, much, much higher."

"Buy energy across the board. Can't pound the table enough. Then hang on for the ride.

There are 4 parts to this trade:

Old. ($XOM or your favourite oil)
Transition (Nat Gas, Nuclear)
New (Battery, Hydrogen if your brave )
Power Infrastructure (ETN, PWR)"

I bought loads of oil early in the year(Imperial has doubled by the way in 2020). Good thing I didn't take your back and forth advice.

You brag very well.

Like most everyone else, in hindsight. :lol:

I bought the oil earlier in the year. Well before you stated it was the coal type stock(which I believe are going up as well). Don't get me wrong. I missed the boat at its low prices last year.

If you don’t understand both of my statements you quoted are 100% accurate, I can’t help you.

As i said, you just want to argue to inflate your ego. Not interested.

And you’re a such a real winner, not to respond to me on Twitter where I wrote the above.

For the record.

Braggarts aren't too popular on Twitter, either. Better to keep quiet.

Like I said...I returned to your Twitter, which is why I never posted anything there. Not that I would. I watched it for a while but lost interest. I like the Motley Fool.

But like I said, the majority of my stuff is with the 'expert' professionals and their fees. Negotiated one of them down this year and prefer him to the banks which like to angle you toward their funds that give them a kickback.

They have averaged 8-9% over the years. But they have some bobo's as well. It was obvious to me prior to Covid that Cineplex was a bad idea as everyone is online now. It was way down even prior to 2020.

But the American stuff has been great for capital gains. They has offset the typical mediocre Canadian stocks. Can you say Abbott, Invesco, Sherwin-Williams, and Mastercard. Dupont was a bomb. There seems to almost always be one bomb in each area.

Then you don’t know how to read my Twitter disclaimer. NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE.

My other 2000 followers get that. Its a blog. It’s for me as a public journal.

I don’t give specific advice, don’t have or want clients. I run many positions, and believe me you couldn’t afford me if I decided to offer advice for money.

I’ve thought out of curiosity how much I would charge. Think many, many multiples of any flight instructors rate.

I see. I guess this just isn't investment advice. Just a really, really strong hint......


@Cessnadriver50
"Very bearish here -- except these secular winners:

TOU-TC (Nat Gas)
MLM (Aggregates for climate infrastructure)
ENPH (Power Grid)
PWR, ETN (Grid Infrastructure)
CARR (A/C)
NTR (Fertilizer)
XYL (Water Infra)
Health care."



Oh by the way.... I have XYL in my portfolio(gotta admit, I didn't even know what the company does until now). My advisor bought it in 2017 at 66.2. My last update at the end of November was 121.1 So when you say....

....I say "I'll stick with the flight instructor as I expect I would get more value for my money."

Don't worry, the 'experts' I have aren't perfect.....they seem to have gotten in too late on more than one gold stock(subject to change of course).

I’m curious Rookie,
You consider your advice to be free but I’d wager you’ve already bought the stock you hint at and 2000 or if even half of your followers start buying these, from what I know of the stock market which admittedly is not much, the stock goes up. Now you sell off your position and make a quick buck, no such thing as free advice.
Tell me I’m wrong.

You’re wrong, but there are loads of slimeballs who do exactly that writing newsletters — with small cap penny stocks.

I rarely quote tickers at all, when I do they are usually large cap US names. I wish I were that influential LOL. I’m usually involved with names for extended periods, too.

When i buy small stuff, and i do, i don’t quote it, for many reasons.

But you are quite wise to assume anyone writing anything has a self interest —-

Climate change is happening. This is indisputable.

Is it caused by human activity? Apparently that is up for debate. Many here seem to feel that climate change either should not or cannot be mitigated.

We lack the global will to stop climate change. We will barely even slow it. Instead of mitigations, we need to look at adaptations.

No matter what we do, we will be dealing with increasingly violent weather events, forest fires, supply chain disruption, mass migration, water scarcity and food insecurity.

If we do not adapt, we will have some very tough years ahead that will make COVID look like a cakewalk.

We’ve got green lawn still growing 35nm SSE of Toronto on Jan1 (5C this morning) so I look outside and realize it’s mowable. There’s snow in the forecast for tonight. We’ll be reminded by tomorrow night how a minus ten celsius feels; for sure nothing like the 40 or 50 below elsewhere.

Re: adaptation. I’d heard someone tried their lawnmower for blowing snow; now I see how that would happen if it’s still out. Wet snow probably not …

Happy new year.

I notice Pelmet was helpful in posting that Edmonton still gets cold in the winter — thank you — but somehow neglected to mention, after days in the news, that 1000 homes were destroyed by a wildfire.

In Colorado, right by the Rockies.

At Christmas.

Think about that. No snow until just the other night.

But when you claim without any evidence its a “scam” — kinda hard to back away from. So avoid mentioning anything weird. Its a “scam”. Why? “Well, because”.

Its climate change. Climate volatility. Not linear warmer temps everywhere at once.

Yeah its going to create lots of problems.

There are a lot of panicky predictions for the future. You can learn some more about forest fires in general from this video....

Climate change is natural. Been happening for millennia. I have no doubt that a December fire has happened in Colorado before. But tens of millions of people have moved into areas where fires happen. That means thousands of homes get burned sometimes. Happened less in the pas as there were a lot less houses.

Climate volatility.....nothing new.
