2020: Facebook onsite + Google onsite

 Dec. 19, 2020

Introduction

It is tough projects to work on to prepare Facebook phone screen and Google phone screen. I like to put those two companies together, so that I can learn from my own experience in 2020. I like to learn from both onsite interview and I like to continue to push myself to learn even after onsite interviews. 

Facebook onsite + Google onsite in 2020

I just could not believe that I can make it to onsite for both companies. I need to learn how to make myself smart enough, pay close attention to detail, and then stay confident and grow my confidence through and after onsite interviews. 

Here is the github folder to contain all my preparation in 2020. 

Solarwinds Orion Hack December 2020

Here is the link.  

I like to spend 20 minutes to learn more about Solarwinds Orion Hack. 

SOLARWINDS HACK: Solarwinds Orion Hack Explained

 Here is the link. 

This supply chain attack known as the Solarwinds hack is the latest cyber attack on thousands of companies. Solarwinds is a company that provides Orion network monitoring tool. Attackers compromised the software update mechanism and then used it to infect selected customers who installed a backdoored version of the company’s Orion network management tool. So let's have a look at what this hack is and what its impact will be.

SolarWinds: Buy the Dip? | Follow up on July 31, 2021

 Here is the article. 

My study notes:

1. The tech stock still isn't a bargain. That's even before taking into account any negative outcome from the recent hack.
2. It is still too expensive. I should skip this stock right now. Maybe I can just purchase 20 shares. 

Buy the dip?

Despite SolarWinds' stock price drop of more than 15%, the stock still isn't considered a bargain. It is trading at forward enterprise value-to-sales and price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios of 7.5 and 20, respectively, which suggests the market still expects strong performance over the next many years.

In addition to the unknown consequences of the hack beyond the short term, SolarWinds is also about to face extra uncertainties with significant changes coming for its business. After more than 14 years as CEO, Kevin Thompson will leave SolarWinds on Jan. 4. And during the first half of 2021, the company is planning to spin off its activities with managed service providers (MSP), which represent about 30% of revenue. These MSPs leverage SolarWinds' technology to monitor, manage, and secure the computing environments of over 500,000 businesses around the world. 

SolarWinds is also competing with legacy vendors such as International Business Machines over its on-premises and cloud solutions business. It's also facing intensifying competition with cloud-native high-growth players in this area. For instance, Datadog has been delivering impressive performance over the last several quarters and New Relic is now trying to attract new customers with free offerings. 

Then there is the issue of the company trying to manage a debt load currently totaling $1.48 billion in excess of cash and cash equivalents at the end of the last quarter. In comparison, it generated $332 million of free cash flow over the last 12 months.

Despite this recent dip in SolarWind stock, investors should consider staying on the sidelines right now. The tech stock still isn't a bargain. That's even before taking into account any negative outcome from the recent hack.

My homework:

PE ratio

DataDog - 430

Fireeye - 57.52

SWI 2019 - 18.66

INTC - PE ratio - 9.03 

Bought SWI 100 share at price 16.07, plan to purchase another 100 share in 2 - 3 business days. Purchase another 100 share if there is a big drop in next 3 - 5 business day. SWI is my portfolio with turnaround stock.

I should set stop loss using 5% stop loss and bet $30,000 dollars to get 20% return. That is $6,000 dollars in one day. 

As an equity researcher, I just speculate that there are 160,000,000 dollars bet on SWI in one day. I should be safe if I contribute 3/16000 = 1/ 5000 = 2/ 10,000. 

Follow up 

July 31, 2021

SWI gives out one time dividend $1.5 for one share before August 5, 2021. NABL is separated from SWI stock. 

SWI stock: 41% drop in 5 days - Dec 14 - Dec 18 2020

Leetcode algorithm: Another 200 hard level algorithm in 2021

 Dec. 19, 2020

Introduction

I just could not believe that what big achievement to solve another 178 algorithm. I solved 598 algorithms up to Dec. 19, 2020. I did not get offer from Google, I did not get the stage of hiring committee of Google, and I just had two onsite from Facebook. I like to learn how to be a hard working person and make another 200 hard level algorithms in 2021. 

My plan of 2021

I like to plan to solve another 200 hard level algorithms. I like to get more used to solve hard level algorithms, and also I like to learn more about my crafting skills, find top voted discussion posts and then write C# solution. 

Life will be so enjoyable to practice those algorithms. I love the part of problem solving, and I am so humble to learn more algorithms. 

Leetcode algorithms: 420 solved ->598, May - Dec 2020

 Dec. 19, 2020

Introduction

I like to write a short research report how I got motivated to learn and practice more algorithms on Leetcode. I solved 178 algorithms from May to Dec 2020. 

Facebook phone screen + onsite

I was so busy with stock trading and tried to learn more about business. And then I got a call to prepare one month for phone screen in July 2020. 

Google phone screen + onsite

I solved 598 algorithms before I took onsite on Dec. 8, 2020. I just could not believe that I was able to solve another 50 algorithms.

Travel Directives and Screening

 Here is the article. 

It is mandatory to self-isolate 14 days after USA trip. So I should not consider to have a trip to Florida since I will have to take 14 days self-isolation. 

Under a new measure from the Government of British Columbia, all arriving passengers from outside Canada, regardless of their final destination, are required to submit a self-isolation plan. Learn more about the Province's self-isolation plan requirement here. The plan can be submitted online here or at the Self-Assessment Tool, through the BC COVID-19 Support App, or in-person on arrival at YVR. It must show that returning passengers have supports in place to safely self-isolate for 14 days. Upon arrival at YVR, passengers will be supported as follows:

• Travellers with approved plans will proceed to their home residence (or another identified accommodation) to self-isolate.
• Travellers who submit plans that need additional support to execute safely (e.g., enlist volunteers to deliver groceries or fill prescriptions once at home) may be taken or directed to an accommodation site to begin self-isolation, while outstanding details of their plan are put in place. With an approved self-isolation plan, they may return home. Without an approved plan, they will remain at an accommodation site for 14 days.
• Travellers who do not have a self-isolation plan or are unable to safely carry one out may be transported or sent to an accommodation where they can safely complete their 14-day self-isolation.

Air Canada partners with Shoppers Drug Mart to offer pre-travel COVID-19 tests

 Here is the article. 

Air Canada has announced that it is collaborating with Shoppers Drug Mart to provide its customers with a pre-departure coronavirus (COVID-19) tests to comply with international travel requirements.

Beginning Dec. 7, eligible Air Canada customers can book and purchase a COVID-19 RT-PCR test at participating Shoppers Drug Mart locations in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. Results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours, explains a news release. 

"Many countries now require a pre-departure negative COVID-19 test and we are pleased to facilitate this process for our customers, making their travel experience easier and safer by recommending the RT-PCR test at select Shoppers Drug Mart locations. We believe that testing is one of the keys to protecting employees and customers, and an important step to safely reopen travel around the world, easing travel restrictions by providing alternative testing solutions in managing risk," said Dr. Jim Chung, Air Canada's Chief Medical Officer.

"Our stores and pharmacy teams are a convenient, trusted resource for Canadians. We want to continue to be a part of the solution as the country looks for ways to manage COVID-19. We're pleased to work with Air Canada to make COVID-19 RT-PCR tests accessible to travellers, and to help customers plan their travel safely and with confidence," said Ashesh Desai, Executive Vice President, Pharmacy at Shoppers Drug Mart.

Holiday break: 2020 vacation plan - Vancouver, Canada - Fort Lauderdale, USA

 Dec. 18, 2020

Introduction

It is in pandemic season. I like to go back to Boca Raton and spend one week in Boca Raton home. My renter asked me to visit and she works there remotely for biggest company in Silicon Valley.  

Boca Raton

It is in pandemic, no one opens door for visitors except neighbors. It is time for me to plan a trip, and I like to work on home maintenance. Paint the wall, fix the window, and install cabinet door, and other projects. 

I already installed new range hood and my friend offered me a free installation, and I paid $100 dollars to clean the oven and cabinet and closet, two people two hours. I paid $260 for bathtub to repaint. A new vanity in bathroom is installed and I paid a new one close to $200 dollars. 

So many projects are completed in last one month. I just could not believe that a friend rented my place with only less than one month break. 

I have to pay over $6800 dollars for roof project. 

I work on stock investment last 9 months. I did not lose too much but I did not make a lot. 

I am a trader not an investor. So I knew that I should focus on distressed industry stocks, like hotel and airline and oil companies, biggest one and cheapest one like Air Canada and AAL. 

I missed all those gains from KSS, NCLH, PK and all other stocks with near 100% return in December, 2020. But I think that it is important for me to take a break, and enjoy the travel from Vancouver Canada to Fort Lauderdale, USA. I just could not believe that I was too scared to hold on those positions, I thought about pullback another 30% or 40% in early November 2020, but it is almost 100% rebound for HSE.TO, PK and KSS stocks.

Retailers Should Brace for a Tidal Wave of Returns

Here is the article. 

I am placing bets on EXPR stock, and I own 2300 shares with cost $1.19/ share. I like to figure out more about retail and how I should make some profit over holiday season. 

My notes

1. $115 billion of merchandise will be returned between Thanksgiving and the end of January, compared with an estimate of $100 billion last year.
2. Even before the pandemic, managing returns was a feat of logistical acrobatics, given that some items can be put back on shelves, some must be refurbished, and others go to landfills.
3. The size of items returned is up more than 200% since the pandemic began

Americans are in the final sprint of a record year of e-commerce spending, filling their digital carts with holiday gifts and decor in a year when public health concerns are keeping them away from stores. That online haul, though, foreshadows an unfortunate aftershock for retailers: A potentially unprecedented deluge of merchandise returns.

Online purchases have long had higher rates of returns than those for goods bought in stores, for obvious reasons: When you don’t try on or test a product before buying, you’re more likely to make a regrettable purchase.(1) With e-commerce spending expected to grow 35.8% in the U.S. this holiday season, the safe bet is that returns will surge, too. Optoro, a so-called reverse logistics company that helps retailers manage returns, estimates $115 billion of merchandise will be returned between Thanksgiving and the end of January, compared with an estimate of $100 billion last year.

This creates fresh challenges for stores whose supply chains and in-stock positions have been strained for the better part of a year by greater demand in their e-commerce channels. The ones that adapted to higher return volumes early in the pandemic and have worked to make the experience more seamless for shoppers are better positioned to weather the onslaught.

Even before the pandemic, managing returns was a feat of logistical acrobatics, given that some items can be put back on shelves, some must be refurbished, and others go to landfills. Now, though, the choreography has new twists. Consumers are returning bigger items such as furniture and appliances. Sender Shamiss, the chief executive officer of reverse logistics provider goTRG, said the size of items returned is up more than 200% since the pandemic began. That’s just one cause of a space crunch: Tobin Moore, CEO of Optoro, said his company has been working to help retailers find temporary space to house and process returns because they have had to reconfigure areas normally used for this purpose to fulfill outgoing online orders.

KSS store: department stores - Oct 20 - Dec 18 - 100% gains

Why I am a trader not an investor?

 Dec. 17, 2020

Introduction

It is hard for me to review my purchase history. I definitely was a trader since I totally missed big gains of those stocks over 50% near 100% return, GE, PK, NCLH and more. 

A trader not an investor

I like to be a good thinker and can understand how business works. I do think that it is ok for me to learn from my own mistake, do not risk to lose over 50% of my capital. I am 54 year old and I work hard to save those $15,000 US dollars, and over 20 years I only have $5000 dollars gains. I think that finance education is so important for me to learn. 

I do not know the value of growth fund, and I do not check my asset last 10 years, and now I was in the market, but I was a trader not an investor. But I am getting better. 

GE stock - my purchase. Here is the blog. 

PK stock - my blog is here. 

NCLH stock - my blog is here. 

KSS stock - my blog is here. 

I want to be an investor

It is not difficult to be an investor. I think that I should take some risk, and learn how to analyze and stay confident to hold those distressed stocks until there is big gain. Hold more than one stocks, if one of them has 100% gains, then I know that it is time to sell.

GE stock: Sept - Dec 2020

 Dec. 17, 2020

Introduction

It is my short review of my GE purchase and what I should look into. Be a short term investor. I should discipline myself to hold at least three months. 

GE stock

KSS stock: Oct 20 - Dec 17 2020 - Retail store

 Dec. 17, 2020

Introduction

It is my short history to hold those KSS stock. I like to look into and see what I should learn from my purchase experience. 

KSS stock

PK stock: August 17 - Dec 17 2020

 Dec. 17, 2020

Introduction

I should learn how to invest on PK stock and hold on it more than 4 months. I missed the gain almost 100%. It is easy for me to make profit as long as I can image that vaccine is coming at the end of November, and have faith to overcome pandemic. 

PK stock

I should teach myself to be a smart investor. Be patience, place a bet. Do not buy and sell in less than 4 months. I have capital around $20,000 dollars on my IRA Ameritrade.com, and all I have to do is to stay put. 

I should have invested 100% on stocks around August 17, and then wait four months. 

NCLH stock: Sept 28 - Dec 17 2020

 Dec. 17, 2020

Introduction

It is less than three months since I bought 200 shares of NCLH stocks, I still remembered the purchase made by mistake, second 100 shares of NCLH. I like to work on a short research how to be a rational investor on stocks. 

NCLH stocks

I think that it is important for me to review my purchase, and think about what is the value to hold those 200 shares of NCLH until the market rebounded with over 56% gains. 

I do think that it is important for me to set goal having gains over 60%, instead of focusing on 6%, and save a lot of time to stay put, and place a few bets on distressed industry, and spend more time to read about business news and articles. 

Market will go up and down, when it goes down, it goes quickly and I could not believe that my portfolio will go down $500 a day, two days in a row.

My trade plan: EXPR stock

 Dec. 15, 2020

Introduction

It is time for me to learn how to work on my long term goal as a stock investor. I bet on EXPR stock and I like to get 100% return in less than six months. 

My trading plan

1. I will not sell any share of 2300 EXPR for profit before I will have 100% return in next 6 months; 
2. I like to take some time off to focus on my job and fitness and other projects; 
3. I do not like to sell shares if the price goes down 30% to 50%, instead I like to add more shares;
4. It is my bet and I bet that US economy will get better and Express Inc as a business will survive in next 12 months;
5. I choose not to aim for a small amount profit, and I like to enjoy the learning of business in retail or other distressed industries. 
6. I should consider $19,500 dollars I have in my Ameritrade.com IRA account, and take some time to find trades to work on. 
7. I will spend time to read articles about business and learn more about finviz as a tool to work on stock research. 
8. I will use HSE.TO - my experience to help me go through tough experience to hold 2300 shares of EXPR. 
9. I will learn the lessons I learned from MRO, SABR, INTEL, and PK and ENBL stocks. 
10. MRO stock investment lesson is here. 
11. I am willing to lose all of those $2800 dollars on EXPR if EXPR goes bankrupt. I will try to figure out how to have some profit later in my account.
