Industrials are holding best, which stock is better?All these 3 stocks are leaders in the Building Materials industry. NASDAQ:USLM is the clear leader between the 3, breaking from its 2022 highs earlier. The technicals between NYSE:MLM and NYSE:VMC are very similar but, the fundamentals are another story. Martin Marietta NYSE:MLM , produces crushed stone/sand/other aggregates for infrastructure/commercial/residential construction markets. It has a +9% and +13% 3-year EPS Growth rate and Sales Growth rate respectively, while NYSE:VMC has -8% in EPS and +20% in Sales. I prefer stocks with both EPS and sales trending together. So, NASDAQ:USLM and NYSE:MLM are my choices.

go long MLM. will benefit from infrastructure billMLM has been building strength and continuing. Although sometimes a high RSI means something is overbought, sometimes it can signal strength. Every time the RSI and MACD spike, it ends up being a sign of building strength and momentum in MLM as marked by the blue vertical lines. There was a bullish Golden Cross and with the infrastructure bill around the corner, MLM stands to be a huge beneficiary. Fundamentally, they are reducing debt and increasing profit margins while beating on earnings 3 out of the last 4 times. Short-term price target: $368-$375. Plus in the meantime, you'll collect a dividend. Long-term price target: $420

Delightful news: FCA bans crypto-derivatives to retailFinally! I am glad to hear those good news. Effective 6 January 2021, the FCA banned marketing and distribution to all retail consumers of any derivatives (ie contract for difference – CFDs, options and futures) and ETNs that reference unregulated transferable cryptoassets by firms acting in, or from, the UK. The magic bean asset being what it is, the FCA warns UK consumers should continue to be alert for crypto-derivative investment scams. The FCA lists the following reasons for their decision: > inherent nature of the underlying assets, which means they have no reliable basis for valuation (crypto magic beans have no value) > prevalence of market abuse and financial crime in the secondary market (eg cyber theft) (it's a cesspool of scams) extreme volatility in cryptoasset price movements inadequate understanding of cryptoassets by retail consumers (they do not understand they are glorified ponzi schemes) lack of legitimate investment need for retail consumers to invest in these products (but the casino was closed) The FCA mentions heavy losses suffered by crypto "investors" and day and swing gamblers. "We have evidence of this happening on a significant scale." Wait what? What was that? I thought they all made big money? And laughed at Warren Buffett for "missing out" on their pump & dump scheme. They laughed at me for getting small winners of that only moved a few percents in the forex market. The FCA says crypto baggies are taking big losses on a "significant scale", this does not look like they are all making "big gains". Looks like they are making big double percent returns. With a negative sign in front of it ;) Wow apparently "investors" in the UK have been losing hundreds of millions of pounds to these MLM schemes. The FCA has received feedback from angry bahodlers in denial, in particular alot of criticism of: "our argument that cryptoassets do not have intrinsic value, and that retail consumers are unable to value them reliably" I can imagine the nerds explaining to them their magic beans have alot of magical value because reasons and that the FCA "just doesn't get it". "Most respondents (97%) opposed our proposal arguing that: • cryptoassets have intrinsic value • retail consumers are capable of valuing cryptoassets • a prohibition was disproportionate and other measures could achieve our objectives • our CBA did not represent accurately the costs and benefits of banning cryptoderivatives sold to retail consumers " They want to continue losing money, the regulators want to stop it. Bagholders if left unchecked are just going to lose everything then ask for social programs to get their money back. It is not impossible some of them do a Mark O. Barton (a foolish butthurt prop firm day gambler that after losing hundreds of thousands killed a lot of people). The french equivalent has banned the marketting of such products a while ago, hopefully they are going to take the next logical step and ban them entirely. And hopefully many will follow. No one wants a tragedy after foolish crypto gamblers lose everything they have. Let's cut them off their drug and end their misery, the sooner the better. These great news come at a time where many entities are cracking down on the "criminal" or "scammy" side of crypto (got you didn't I? This would imply cryptos have no scammy side). Owners of Bitmex that skipped the anti-laundering and tax evasion rules (what a surprise) are wanted outlaws by the USA. They left the USA and are hiding offshore. Since crypto is used for dodging taxes so much in the USA, The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is considering the introduction of a box on the first page of the 2020 tax returns "to win cases against taxpayers that claim they did not know they had to pay taxes". Crypto is a negative sum game. It serves no purpose, unlike forex & futures that provide a hedging tool for producers, industrials, businesses, governments, and stocks that allow companies to seek capital. Crypto produces nothing and constantly loses money as "miners" have electricity bills to pay. Participants only make money by scamming each other, and the ones that "won" this fools game are going to get heavilly taxed. If 1 was a perfectly zero sum game, and 0 a game where every one just loses everything (infinitely negative sum), Bitcoin and cryptos would score something like 0.4.

Bitcoin baghodlers will buy ETHER at $2500Always late to the party haha. The Bitcoin ponzi is over. Future is with the new Ethereum ponzi. Better than deadponzicoin by every measure. Let's look at a few charts. It could hesitate before going, but it's pretty fomo so maybe it just goes from there. Hey look at what silver did You'll never be 100% sure. Might even not get filled. In June 2017 ETH came close to flippening BTC, it had I think over 80% of BTC market cap. The absolute bottom of investors, the shoe shine boys heard of BTC so that's what they bought and then BTC/ETH went skyrocketing, but you really think it is impossible we see a flippening in the coming years? BTC sheepish baghodlers are going to miss out - AGAIN - and rage buy at the top - AGAIN - and insult and argue with bears - AGAIN - and hold the bag - AGAIN. The ponzi is dead. Long live the ponzi!

Why would anyone good buy PonziCoin?Plenty of self proclaimed experts, or even "legends" calling to invest ("invest") in Bit-con. Let me tell you I would not buy Bitcoin, even if I had a cristal ball. If we assume Bitcoin is really going "to the moon" and keep being as exponentially bullish as the past, the best possible scenario would bring its marketcap to 2 trillion in 4 years (that is ALOT of money going into CrimeCoin). Ok if I had a cristal ball telling me this would happen I would put some money in to be safe & pray my action does not change future events. All these self proclaimed pro's and bosses are so full of it. In my little calculation I took a winrate of 2/3, meaning your Win/Lose is 2. That is pretty ambitious but I am comparing this to a super optimistic Bitcon route. Plus on FX sites & copytrade sites you have plenty of guy that manage 1.5+ over thousands of trades (so RR1 & winrate 60% OR RR2 & winrate 43%). If clowns selling signals and random people on FX sharing sites manage 1.5 and more, 2 is not that crazy to imagine. The result with 1.5 is not as big as 2 but still big and comparable or better than Bitcoin 3000% (buying very bottom selling very top), with still a 0 risk of ruin. And no frozen capital. etc... The risk of ruin misses one thing thought: massive slippage. Well if you risk 2% with a 1 ATR SL, you'll never blow up. NatGas recently had a short squeeze, it went up 3 ATR in 1 hour and killed optionsellers.com. EURCHF in 2015 had a slippage of 15-20 ATR in 1 hour. With 2% risk to lose all you'd need a slippage of 50 ATR! That doesn't even happen on penny stocks. And retail traders are protected so you can't lose more than what you have with a broker. Buying Bitcoin with all your money thought? Hah good luck with that one. So much can go wrong. Let me show you how the risk of ruin is calculated. (1-Edge)/(1+Edge)^U With 66% winrate RR 1 the edge is 0.33 because 0.66666-0.3333 = 0.33333 With the 1.5's the edge is 60% winrate RR1 ==> 0.6-0.4 = 0.2 OR 40% WR RR2 ==> (0.40*2 - 0.6*1) = 0.8-0.6 = 0.2 I just found a 44% WR RR2 on a site visible to everyone, that edge is 0.88-0.56 = 0.32 so don't tell me it's not possible. I don't think I am allowed to post links but it's really easy to find. FX sites with systems and verified trading history and stats... U = the maximum number of risks that can be taken before the individual reaches their threshold for ruin Ok here is one. Only 300 trades thought. Trades: 331 Average Win: 214.39 pips / $68.85 Average Loss: -107.72 pips / -$38.58 Commissions: -$279.02 Longs Won: (65/167) 38% Shorts Won: (83/164) 50% Best Trade($): (Aug 10) 300.56 Worst Trade($): (Feb 14) -115.80 Avg. Trade Length: 1d So, the risk of ruin (considering you're done at 50 losses > wins correct me if I am wrong) with such an example that has an edge of 0.333: (1-0.3333)/(1+0.3333)^50 = very very small number. Sites with calculators just give 0. So why would anyone good at the game waste their time and money with this ponzi? "Oh but the big funds never make huge % gains 3000 is massive" Ok smartass they're not allowed to have drawdowns of 10% so obviously they won't be all in Bitcoin. If you're comparing all in PonziCoin to make 3000% then I think an example where one risks 2% per trade and has a RoR of 0.000000000000000000000000000000000 is actually very biased towards Bitcoin. To have a fair comparison we would have to get a risk of ruin higher and risk much more per trade. The positive outcome would be so much greater than 20,000%. When you actually run the numbers, all these clowns that act like they know something are so full of it. If they're so good and are risking everything on PonziCoin, then why not use their superior legendary mastery of markets to risk everything scalping/daytrading/swinging it and make MASSIVE returns? Risk would be the same but returns immensly greaters. Even if they go 20% in ponzicoin, that 20% capital would be better used trading with their master skillZ. Why don't they do this? Because they're trash and full of it. That's why. Yet hundreds of thousands of sheep follow them and cheer (as well as clowns chasing 50 to 1 risk rewards), why? Because they are brainlets that cannot add 2 numbers. "Investing" in Bitcoin is the stupidest thing anyone could do, regardless of it going up or not. Aren't these wannabee hedge funds down 80% too? Gee that's really good. Typical funds that return consistently 15% a year while having a drawdown limit of 5%, what would they return with a limit at 80%? Funds have tried in the past to hold and wait for recessions to buy like Warren Buffet, but their clients won't let them. What if these guys had cryptards as clients? No limits! Wait 5 years for the crash, then buy with leverage risk it all. Who is the best trader/manager, the guy returning 15% a year but with 5 possible drawdown, or the guy returning 25% but potential drawdown is 15%? Or the guy returning 300% but potential drawdown is 90% (lol...) People are just so awful at maths.... Clowns. No wonder wall street is afraid mathematicians and algo's are dominating the business, how good kids are at maths at school has severly deteriorated the past decades, and now people that have the ability to add 2 numbers are playing against mathematically illiterate brainlets. Also, stock market has also gone up 10000% if you used the right leverage/borrowed money... And don't the FXscamLFidiotsTOsellAcourseTO totally legit traders selling courses all claim they made 5000% returns a year or more? "23 yo 1.5 millionaire that started 2 years ago with 8 grans" that is a 18750% return in 2 years. If you compare 2 things then you should consider an equal risk... So obvious... "I can make way more jumping off a plane with no parachute that working as a bouncer for a bar" Uh then compare jumping off a plane to working as a bouncer for a crimelord then... My brain hurts hearing or reading these cryptoers... Anyone (looking to actively trade) serious about this. Just... write it down and calculate it all. Otherwise just go to the casino at least they have flashy neons and drinks.
