The session kicked off with dividend notifications and portfolio planning for next week. Dividends are a major theme for building consistent passive income, and several funds like QQQI (QQQI) and SPYI (SPYI) were mentioned as strong income options.
Spotlight on Grab (GRAB)
A lot of excitement circled around Grab (GRAB), the “Uber of Asia.” With operations across Vietnam and Thailand, Grab plays a major role in ride-hailing and food delivery. The stock is trading around $6, and the long-term view is optimistic — especially if it dips into the $5 range. The company’s strong service culture in Asia and growth potential make it a notable stock under $10 to watch.
Opendoor (OPEN) Reality Check
Opendoor (OPEN) was once again a hot topic. While the brand is enjoying major visibility, the fundamentals remain weak. The company needs to figure out new revenue streams beyond thin real estate margins. The community discussed how hype has driven attention, but execution is what will determine if Opendoor’s new CEO can lead a real turnaround.
SoFi (SOFI) & Fintech Outlook
SoFi (SOFI) continues to attract attention as a fintech player expanding its product suite. The long-term bull case is tied to user growth, profitability milestones, and customer loyalty. While the stock may face volatility, many investors see multi-year upside.
WolfSpeed (WOLF) Update
WolfSpeed (WOLF) made news with its decision to shift incorporation from North Carolina to Delaware. The move is part of a broader restructuring effort. While the company is in the volatile semiconductor space, its stock is viewed as high risk — or as said on the live, a “risky biscuit.”
Tesla (TSLA) and the Robot Future
Tesla (TSLA) isn’t just about cars anymore. The robotics division could eventually outgrow its automotive business. With the trend toward automation and “dark factories,” Tesla’s humanoid robot projects could be a game-changer over the next decade.
Other Stocks Mentioned
- RichTech Robotics (RTRO) – speculative micro-cap, risky with limited fundamentals.
- Super Micro Computer (SMCI) – debated valuation; some see it as undervalued in AI hardware.
- Chipotle (CMG) – iconic brand but facing margin pressure from inflation and input costs.
- U.S. Antimony (UAMY) – extreme volatility, ran from $0.50 to $6+, raising caution flags.
- BITO (BITO) – a Bitcoin ETF; notable for dividend-style payouts but with sustainability concerns.
- YAAS (YAAS) – ultra-microcap penny stock; warned to avoid due to no earnings and tiny market cap.
- BETR (BETR) – a mortgage-tech play; potential upside if a refinance boom hits when rates drop.
ETFs for Foundations
The conversation emphasized building a solid foundation before chasing hype. ETFs like Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity (SCHD), Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth (SCHG), QQQI (QQQI), and small-cap funds like AVUV (AVUV) provide diversified exposure with long-term compounding power.
Final Thoughts
This Saturday live mixed stocks, entrepreneurship, and personal finance lessons. The key theme: enjoy the ride, but don’t skip building a foundation with proven ETFs and quality companies. Speculative trades like OPEN, GRAB, and WOLF can be fun, but core holdings are what create wealth over decades. Stay tuned for the next daily market recap to keep learning, laughing, and growing alongside the community.
