OVV.TO stock: Best research blog in May 2020 | Time in the market not time the market

 May 17, 2022

I just could not believe that I did best research on OVV.TO stock, what I missed was to invest $10,000 Canadian dollars around $5/ share in May 2020, and then hold it for another two years. 

OVV stock

OVV.TO stock first dropped 97% to $3.60 / share in CAD in March, 2020, and then went up 200% in less than two months. I did purchase 100 shares of OVV.TO stock. 

Now OVV.TO stock is over $50 CAD dollars, which has 2000% return. 

I just could not believe that I did not make decision to follow up with OVV.TO stock, and ask a few more questions and learn more by investing more dollars. 

Investing is not to pursue short term return, it is to stay in the market once OVV.TO stock is found to be so valuable, and then invest 10% of my capital dollars. $10,000 dollars and then stay in the market for another two years. 

Here is the link of OVV.TO stock research blogs. 

Best research blog is this one. I also copy the content in the following. I just could not believe that I was so afraid to take some risk and stay in the market to hold more shares of OVV.TO.

Introduction


I like to be a good stock research, and I like to look into how to purchase $10,000 dollar OVV.TO stock and also OVV stock in Ameritrade.com, and see if I can make some profit in next two to three years.

Everything about OVV.TO


I just found that blackrock.com had purchase of OVV.TO stock on March 30, 2020 through the web page:

2020-05-01

Purchased Date
Investor BlackRock Inc
Shares    1,264,546
CurrentValue (x$1000)  3,413

purchased price 3413000/1264546 = 2.70 US dollars = 3.50

But I only purchased 100 shares, price 3.70 Canadian dollars on March 27, 2020

It is not easy for me to manage the risk. How many things I should check and also how long I should time the market to get in and also get out.

SABR stock: January 7, 2015 | UPDATE 2-U.S. judge narrows US Airways pricing lawsuit vs Sabre

 May 15, 2022

UPDATE 2-U.S. judge narrows US Airways pricing lawsuit vs Sabre



NEW YORK, Jan 7 (Reuters) - A federal judge has significantly cut back US Airways Inc’s $1.45 billion lawsuit accusing airfare information distributor Sabre Corp of charging inflated fees and suppressing competition in how flights were displayed.

US Airways had sought under federal antitrust law to recoup three times the $317 million to $482 million it claimed to lose in overcharges and profit from Sabre’s alleged illegal conduct over nearly seven years, from April 21, 2007 to March 31, 2014.

But in a decision on Tuesday night, U.S. District Judge Lorna Schofield in Manhattan said US Airways, now part of American Airlines Group Inc, may pursue damages claims covering only from Feb. 23, 2011 to Oct. 30, 2012, when Sabre and American settled similar litigation.

The judge said she will explain the reasons for her decision in a later opinion.

In a regulatory filing, Sabre estimated the decision reduced US Airways’ potential recovery of “single damages” by more than 75 percent. This indicated a maximum potential award of less than $362 million, after tripling.

Sabre said it will fight the remaining claims. The Southlake, Texas-based company has said it set aside $347 million for its settlement with American. AMR Corp, which was American’s parent, merged with US Airways in December 2013.

American spokesman Matt Miller said the Fort Worth, Texas-based company is pleased that US Airways may proceed toward a possible trial.



SABR stock: American Airlines wins key ruling in antitrust case against Sabre

May 15, 2022

  • The airline's complaint that the booking service overcharged will get a new trial next month
  • The 2nd Circuit had thrown out an older $15.3 mln jury verdict for American
  • (Reuters) - American Airlines Group Inc won a ruling in Manhattan federal court that clears a path for a new trial next month on its claims that flight-booking service Sabre Corp abused its market power and caused the airline $300 million in overcharges and lost profit.
  • U.S. District Judge Lorna Schofield on Thursday rejected Sabre's bid to throw out a lawsuit that first began in 2011 by then-US Airways, which merged three years later with American Airlines.
  • Southlake, Texas-based Sabre is the country's largest owner and operator of an electronic network through which travel agents search and book flights that are listed by the airlines. Most corporate air travel is booked through the industry's global distribution systems.

    American Airlines has accused Sabre of setting restrictive contract terms and excessive fees, which the company has denied. The airline said in court filings that more than $3.5 billion of US Airways' revenue, or 35%, was booked through Sabre from 2010 to 2012.

  • A representative for Sabre declined to comment on Friday. A spokesperson for American Airlines said the company was "pleased" with the court's ruling.

    American Airlines in December 2016 won about $15.3 million at an earlier trial in the case that centered on the airline's claim of restrictive contract terms. Damages were limited to alleged overcharges paid by the carrier.

    Applying new U.S. Supreme Court precedent, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 2019 erased that jury verdict and revived the airline's claim that Sabre was a monopolist.

  • Lawyers for American Airlines at the new trial can ask a jury to award lost profit and overcharge damages stemming from the company's 2011 contract with Sabre and a broader monopolization claim that focuses on Sabre's conduct in the marketplace.

    While allowing the case to move to trial, Schofield's order on Thursday again limited the damages American can seek from Sabre by finding its claims related to an earlier 2006 contract between the companies are now too stale.

    The case is US Airways Inc v. Sabre Holdings Corp, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, No 1:11-cv-02725-LGS.

    For plaintiff: Andrew Frackman, Ian Simmons and Katrina Robson of O'Melveny & Myers; and Paul Yetter of Yetter Coleman

    For defendant: Patrick Fitzgerald, Steven Sunshine and Boris Bershteyn of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom

American Airlines wants jury to award it $300 million in dispute with Sabre


The Fort Worth-based carrier alleges its onetime spinoff holds a monopoly in the flight reservations market.

A lawyer for American Airlines Group Inc. urged a jury to award the carrier almost $300 million in overcharges and lost profits, arguing that Sabre Holdings Corp. illegally dominated the market for booking airline tickets.

“There’s one company in this travel business that doesn’t compete,” Paul Yetter told the jurors at the end of a three-week federal trial in Manhattan. “And it’s Sabre.”

Yetter told the panel that Southlake-based Sabre protected its monopoly position by locking up travel agents, tying up the airlines and killing off new competition. Fort Worth-based American claims it is owed $299.3 million on behalf of US Airways Group Inc., with which it merged in 2013.

If it succeeds, it could collect almost $900 million under US antitrust laws, which provide for triple damages.

“The benefits that they’ve gotten from that economic power is high prices, extraordinary profits, and that’s harmed US Airways,” Yetter said.

US Airways sued Sabre in 2011 claiming it charged inflated fees for its computerized reservation services. It alleged that a contract it signed with Sabre illegally reduced competition. It says no competitor in more than 30 years has entered the market to provide a computerized platform to connect airlines and other travel companies to travel agents.

Sabre says it acted lawfully and fairly in a competitive marketplace.

“My client’s being sued for a lot of money,” Patrick Fitzgerald, a lawyer for Sabre, told the jury when it was time for his own closing argument. “People want to take it to the cleaners for a contract that was freely negotiated and performed.”

Fitzgerald told the jurors American had failed to show that Sabre monopolized the market, and that prices went down during the period covered by the suit. He said US Airways hadn’t suffered any antitrust injury.

US Airways won a $5.1 million award in 2016 that was tripled to $15.3 million. That verdict was thrown out in 2019 and sent back for a new trial.

The case is US Airways v. Sabre Holdings, 11-cv-02725, US District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

Wechat discuss: How to invest using passive investing style | rebalance? | Case study: SABR stock loss $11,000 US dollars

 Dear:


The chatting history for this WeChat group "投资小群" is shown below.


————— 2022-05-13 —————

雨果 14:56

我是小白,所以老是发现问题。比如,也知道今天要反弹,一开盘630,感兴趣的两个股票,一下就开在6%了,跟吧,它也不怎么长了,一天都在6左右波动。感觉这长6%,还是长10%, 跟我也没啥大关系。0-6%这块,我根本抓不到。除非昨天就埋伏。

陈建敏 19:17

我来回答你的问题。我至少花了100个小时看YouTube 关于投资个股视频。大概了解如何止损,追求回报。是价值投资还是投机。

陈建敏 19:19

第二步,在群里这么跟着大家,学不到理论。时间长了,没有打好基础,效果不好。我是在gray 股票亏了8900美金。

陈建敏 19:21

根据passive 投资理论,60%股票ETF,40%债券是平衡比例。如果亏了30%, 要50%回报才能回本。

陈建敏 19:26

第三步,我认为看一看seekingalpha 对股票评价,分享有关文章。我买dis 160美金一股,现在100美金。我买了80股。半年前开始,不断止损,财报回报大涨前止损。亏了近1600美金。投资个股不容易。Jim Cramer 老说dis 股票要大涨,但是疫情总是有新情况。

陈建敏 19:32

第四步,敢于实践,犯错误。尽量了解追踪市场情绪,避免偏见。分享时候有一点准备工作,具体一点。投资单只股票,有乐趣,可以结交一些好朋友。了解自己。做好记录,时间长了,自己看出投资问题在哪里。其他人也看出来。目前我看不出你的问题,只是你选的股票就是比较拉风股票。

陈建敏 19:41

第五点,分享一个投资名言,stay in the market, not time the market. 举例,我现在time market, sabr 亏损10000美金,如果三个星期sabr 回到我买的最高价10.8,我可能还亏8000美金。 一进一出,影响因素很多,最后由于恐惧和贪婪,错失机会。

陈建敏 19:49

我买的4000股sabr, 10.8 买2000股,9.8 买2000股,昨日盘中6.2卖,亏损16000美金。

陈建敏 19:49

陈建敏 19:51

如果今天收盘价格7.05 卖,亏损13000美金。

陈建敏 19:51

陈建敏 19:52

市场急速反弹,减少3000美金损失。我自己进出,只拿回900美金损失。

Xu Jian 20:00

@陈建敏,上交大84数学 谢谢分享 不过我还是没太看明白,通过你总结的这几步,那你的SABR是该一直拿着呢还是要来回买卖

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 20:03

@陈建敏,上交大84数学 
给咱讲讲止损理论。你的SABR遵循这个理论吗

陈建敏 20:20

理论上讲,假设sabr 就是mgk, vanguard growth mega fund, 不会破产,只是跟踪市场涨跌,我计划买了四千股,四万美金,有三万现金,60% sabr 和40%现金,10.8 跌到6.2, sabr股票只剩三万美金,现金三万,花6200美金买1千股,这样100%赚钱,股票回到10.8三星期后。赚的就是1000股6.2低价,4600美金。不会踏空。

陈建敏 20:23

我清仓在7.4美金,在6.8加仓买回,今天投机,回报900美金又清仓了6000股。还有9000美金亏损。

陈建敏 20:25

我肯定跑不赢市场。只有低价加仓,保持比例,就轻松赚钱。市场一振荡,割了我9000美金韭菜。只有手中有股,手里有现金,低价买一些,就等股市回转。

陈建敏 20:27

这是一套消极投资理论,rebalance. 严格去做,就会比基金经理做的好,回报很好。

陈建敏 20:29

我知道自己错误,亏了1万美金,为了400美金反弹高兴,要把手中筹码全部卖出。每卖一次,养成坏习惯,不会赚钱。

陈建敏 20:30

这和安娜做短线盘感不是一回事。

Anne 安娜💐 20:42

怎么做都是对的

Anne 安娜💐 20:52

人只可以赚认知以内的钱

股市就是一个概率游戏,有盈必有亏,最后能做到赢多亏少就好了,但长期炒股,市场内仅有10%的人可以赚$,牢记这点就明白胜率了,没有技术是很难长期赚$的,这是我在预感市场转熊果然离场的理由,我不属于那10%聪明人,有自知之明[掩面]

每个人只能做自己能力圈范围里的事,怎么做都是对的[调皮]

总体来说,一般情况下,长线投资要好过短炒 .

Anne 安娜💐 20:52

人怎么操作和性格相关

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 20:55

我以前的策略是分散投资,认为不要把鸡蛋放一个篮子里。现在认为,应该集中资金专注一只股票,这样我才会注意力集中,才能及时割肉。

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:15

我的计划是,把你的钱分15份。
跌10%,买1份。
再跌10%,买2份。
再跌10%,买4份。
再跌10%,买8份。

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:18

若你手上只有1份,中途若有反弹10%,全部卖出。
若你手上有15份,反弹10%卖1份,反弹20%卖3份。

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:20

这种做法不符合牛市。大家制定一个牛市计划

Xu Jian 21:43

@付英凤 ivyEducate.com 你这计划看着不错,实际操作效果怎么样啊

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:48

刚定的计划[Grin]

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:53

若你手上只有7份以下,中途若有反弹10%,不卖。
若你手上有15份,反弹10%卖1份,反弹20%卖3份。反弹30%,买5份。

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:53

这样可以应付牛市

付英凤 ivyEducate.com 21:56

希望大家参与,完善一下这个计划

Xu Jian 22:02

就担心越跌越买,买着买着没等到反弹就没💰 再补了[Facepalm]

Anne 安娜💐 22:06

如果经济衰退,明年纳指有可能去8000,标普有机会到3000

winnie 22:08

现在买什么都设5%止损

winnie 22:09

也就是说如果我觉得上涨不超过5个点, 我就不打回去买

陈建敏 22:32

计划做好了。其实可以很快完成。中途有很多机会给聪明散户。

陈建敏 22:40

陈建敏 22:40

陈建敏 22:41

陈建敏 22:41

奇花异草·Victor 22:42

@付英凤 ivyEducate.com 你的策略还是做短期的吧 短期收益还得考虑增值税

陈建敏 22:43

下周一买回5000股,4000股不time the market

陈建敏 22:44

Sabr 收盘7.05, 多买1000 share. 如果继续跌,在6.2 再买1000share

陈建敏 22:48

因为是反弹,庄家要拉散户进场,价钱要冲高,回落,再冲次高,再回落,来回几次直到收盘。看Russell 指数判断最高点。同时高价卖低价买。这样可能提早完成计划。

陈建敏 23:00

保持现金和股票比例。2份现金八份分股票是高风险。6份股票四份现金在反弹比较好。调仓后保持比例。跌就买股票,涨就卖部分股票。平缓,不是赌博,我一下子买三万美金psfe 赌涨10%,太大风险。

陈建敏 23:01

Sabr 股票跌掉1万美金,买5000美金sabr, 保持股票和现金比例。不要赌。

陈建敏 23:02

当然不能买afrm, 这种科技成长股跌90%, 保持比例会破产

陈建敏 23:04

一定要买没有被市场追捧的股票。正常随市场起伏,跟随Russell 指数小股票。

雨果 23:58

@陈建敏,上交大84数学 谢谢分享。就算懂理论,有经验还不易的赚。我理论都欠缺,不可能赚的,还有学习的。

It is true that retail investor will cut loss and then forget to get back in when price is low. When market fully rebound, I will have near $9000 US dollar loss not recovered since I am too busy with so many things, full time work, running, allergy, my hobby etc. How can I design a plan to recover my loss of around $11,000 US dollars on SABR 4000 shares.

Ameritrade: April 19 - May 13, $4000 loss

 


BB stock: Analysis

 Tech stocks seemed unstoppable last year, creating massive wealth for shareholders. However, things overturned fast. They are the biggest wealth destructors this year. Almost all tech stocks have lost half of their value in the last few months. BlackBerry (TSX:TSX:BB)(NYSE:BB) stock has dropped 52% in the previous six months and is currently trading at its 20-month lows.

Is BB stock a buy now? Who could’ve imagined last year a tech rout of such an extent? Canadian tech giant Shopify (TSX:SHOP) has fallen from $2,220 to $440 apiece today — an 80% value erosion in six-odd months. Fast-growing fintech stock Nuvei (TSX:NVEI) is no different, dropping from $180 levels last September to $58 this week.

Note that many of these tech stocks enjoyed value expansion during the pandemic. Their earnings were least affected compared to more vulnerable pockets like travel and hospitality. However, as things normalize post-pandemic, COVID-related factors will not be aiding their growth.

Also, fast-increasing interest rates should continue to dominate these growth stocks. The Fed raised its benchmark interest rates by 50 basis-point last week. To add to the woes, it made a strong case for similar increases going forward.

Interestingly, BlackBerry stock does not look attractive even after its recent massive fall. Though it operates in some of the high-growth sectors, the same was not seen in its financial growth.

Concerning financial growth BB reported total revenues of US$185 million for the quarter that ended on February 28, 2022. This was a drop from $210 million in the same quarter last year.

On an annual basis, the mobile manufacturer turned cybersecurity company reported revenues of US$718 million in the last 12 months. In 2016, it was around US$2.16 billion.

At the same time, BlackBerry also saw its margins deteriorating, another concern for investors. Its gross margin dwindled to 65% in the fiscal year 2022 against 77% in 2019.

BlackBerry QNX, an operating system for cars, has gained significant traction in the last few quarters. It is already embedded in nearly 200 million vehicles. However, the company seems to have failed to convert that into sustainable financial growth.

Its other vertical — cybersecurity, contributes two-thirds to its consolidated revenues. Interestingly, the global cybersecurity industry has grown by double digits, while BlackBerry’s revenues from this vertical have dropped by around 18% CAGR in the last five years.

The Foolish takeaway BB stock was trading mostly within its typical range of $14-$16 till late last year. However, it has fallen to $6.6 levels this week. When will BlackBerry delight its investors is anybody’s guess. Sadly, it seems like it will be a while till then.

Volatile markets and rising interest rates make these loss-making names more vulnerable. From the valuation standpoint, BB stock does not depict an appealing picture. So, I would like to see its top line stabilize before considering BB for my portfolio.

The post BlackBerry (TSX:BB) Stock Falls Below $7: Should You Buy? appeared first on The Motley Fool Canada.

The Motley Fool has positions in and recommends Nuvei Corporation and Shopify. Fool contributor Vineet Kulkarni has no position in any of the stocks mentioned.
