Because in the short term, the stock market is a popularity contest. At the moment, everyone is hyped about Apple, Tesla and in Australia it’s all about the Buy Now Pay Later Stocks People are opting for the less sexy stocks and going after the shiny “hot stocks.” But it’s these less sexy stocks, that the professional investors love.

Are You Still Ignoring Travel Stocks? Why Now Might Be The Best Time To Get In
"Follow the big money" is a saying in the investing world. Big funds don’t make decisions lightly and they have extensive research teams to help them make big decisions. In April this year, the public investment fund of Saudi Arabia aka the Government purchased 43.5 million shares in Carnival Cruise. This gave them an 8.2% ownership of the company. In just 4 months, the investment has gone up 100% effectively doubling their money. Anyone who followed the big money at the time, also would have had the same returns. With so much uncertainty in the world, travel stocks are still cheap and largely ignored by everyday investors. But what we do know is that travel will be a thing in the future, and for the patient investor, this may mean significant investment returns.

A Step By Step Guide For Investing in IPO’s: Including Two That Are On Our Watchlist.
FOMO is something that gets to even the most experienced investors. And it’s easy to see why when we read about the returns from investing in IPOs from companies like Apple. If you purchased $1,000 worth of Apple stock at IPO in 1980, today it would be worth $1,278.000 taking into account stock splits. Everyone can agree that’s a solid return over 40 years with no other input apart from buying the initial stock. And having nerves of steel to hold when Jobs first left the company. There are plenty of modern day IPO success stories as well. Did you know that Tesla listed on the stock market in 2010 at $17 a share? Investing $1,000 in the company in 2010 would today be worth $92,400. That’s a powerhouse return. With some pretty big companies gearing up to list on the stock market, we thought it would be timely to do a podcast that gives a step by step walkthrough on investing in IPO’s. Most people in the finance world simply pass this type of investing off as too risky and something that should be ignored by amateurs. We on the other hand feel that we have a good criteria to help you sought the winners from the losers.

Why A Tech Bubble Will Never Happen Again
Call it what you will. The dot-com bubble, the tech bubble or the internet bubble. Either way, these words bring a lot of hurt to a lot of investors. In March 2002, the NASDAQ was down 78% from its all-time high in March 2000. From the year 1995 to 2000 the NASDAQ itself sent Wall St into a buying frenzy as the index rose 400%. Everyone wanted a piece of the hottest tech start-up, hoping to pick up a 10x investment and bragging rights for years to come. But what happened next left the egos of many crushed to never return. Companies like pet.com and webvan disappeared off the face of the earth. Never to be seen again. Established companies like Cisco copped an 86% loss on its share price whilst the likes of eBay and Amazon also took a battering, but managed a quick recovery. In a game where history tends to repeat itself, it may come as a surprise that we are making the bold claim that the tech bubble will never happen again. In this podcast, we talk about how companies and investors are a lot smarter due to the growth in startup investing. We also talk about the change in consumer behaviour where in 2002, the internet was still new to many homes but now we carry it around with us in our hands or on our wrist, at all times…….
