RE:RE:Folks I think I told you When I Traded Away
nxo remains my third largest position out of 5 companies. I lost quite a few shares to my voracious appetite for expensive comics. I knew the stocks would outperform their projected worth. For instance I sold 1000 shares over here at .28 to buy Marvel Special Edition 15 first appearance of Shang Chi which the book remains hot because of a phenomenal first movie people did not expect would be that successful. It is lower grade between a 2.0 and 3.0. Comics are hard to sell unless people get a super good deal but that is something I love. I sold 2,000 mrs shares to buy the first appearance of Silver Surfer in Fantastic Four 48 (shares at .54) they are now around .285 so unlike nxo that has not gone up yet. These books can get into thousands of dollars or millions if you have the first Spiderman Superman Batman I think Wonderwoman may have got their not quite sure. So I lost lots of shares like this now only having 16635 shares total...no more comics for some time . nxo I previously held 5500 shares down to 2500 which I have 0 interest letting go less than $10 share unless I am forced to. I kind of racked up a $15,000 debt because I did not finance all my comics through selling shares as I was looking for way higher mrs prices and they have been constantly manipulated down so it is minimum payments until mrs hits $6 where I am debating whether I push for $10 too. I am looking to the coming year for both nxo and mrs to be at $10/share. My share breakdown: 6400 mrs 5100 axe 2500 nxo 1600 acdc 1400 digi digi is very cheap for where they can go in terms of doubling or better. They have put into place a really structure...those are the ones I would personally strike at. Another stock I like is nam they have a smart plan in place that is new age metals. They have partnered with a big Australian mining company and have a binding contract with them to develop a lithium mine in Manitoba and acquire 75 percent for from my recollection 4 million Canadian. You can't lose. The mine has insignificant deposits the company gets paid the mine is golden the company still holds 25 percent without expensing anything out and doesn't run into dilution problems. They are also backed by a mining guru who holds 26 percent ownership. That company can do extremely well. They are inching up right now great one to load and hold...usually these mining ones seem to hit a buck or close to two rock technologies rock is one of a few exceptions in over $5 a share. But nam at ask .105 is very attractive it jumped heavy prior to where it is trading it was between .02 and .03. I continue to control with mrs meaning if I need to sell given I have the most shares there I will use those if absolutely necessary but my plan is just keep holding everything tight unless I see faster gains somewhere else. With axe it is an all or nothing for me...they are successful in their testing the shares blow up big time well you know what the other side is although people will say they can keep tweaking etc. I envision success first time through though so that is the nature of axe and I will roll the dice on all the shares. I want nothing less than $50 for them that would put me at a quarter million. The second and final phase the heating will continue now for a minimum 6 months or longer if any of the three large partners requests it. I certainly don't want a cheap buyout....anything less than $50 is cheap to me for what this offers in cost savings and environmentally ethical potentials. With this one I want to see $20 plus. Mrs $10 plus if it becomes like Taser we'll $20 plus. It does have that capacity as they have some interesting proprietary products it is having the opportunity to get them out. The Trump Admin surprise surprise illegally helped Advanced Diving Supplies get contracts they were not entitled to and they have held the prominent supplying contracts since desert storm and are getting grilled. But like the non conviction of Trump in all has scandals and the worst inciting insurrection Tiller and ADS has been getting away. They both need to get slammed and put down hard!!! But mrs through unifire despite not getting fair considerations has grown really well. I do believe justice in so far with mrs is close at hand Trump well that is another story. You know what I would like to see him run and lose again that is a far worse punishment to that bugger than locking him up...he hates losing and to do so two consecutive times I am sure will pass him off even more. But having said that he has way too strong of a base. Anyways I was never full out and these last few are not going anywhere unless I am too tightly squeezed which shouldn't happen as I cut off buying really expensive books. When I buy I buy reprints so I can offer some books as giveaways to spread the joy...non worth less than $150 in two different groups once a year so $300 a year for giveaways. I have a plan always in place the debt wasn't part of it as I gambled on mrs and it hasn't quite lined up yet and got excellent books which did line up. I don't believe in looking at anything but the positive as my desires fir the books are and remained a desire wish fulfilled so too paying the debt and massively growing my portfolio. It has climbed back to 80 percent unrealized gains my goal minimum 200 percent year over year...after I get the stated values from the shares then I will strategically trade right now strong hold. I know it is not a question of if for my desired prices but when and I know nxo and mrs are quite capable of $10/share axe succeeding first round digi and acdc $2 plus a share was my initial minimum so I am looking at those prices the latter 2 blew up their outstandings from when I got in so the higher prices I was calling become tougher and tougher to achieve unless net profits are really strong. I am debating buying a $9000 comic first Hawkgirl. The huge historical importance pop culture comicwise is that she is the first female character to come in a superhero suit 3 issues before Wonderwoman. It is a 1940s comics and they are costly. In the grade of 7.5 and providing she sees the same success as Wonderwoman and Aquaman film wise that book can easily have an ask price of $500,000 or more. But I don't sell these types of books unless I had another original copy so that becomes a liability to me like all the others I bought and collect so I don't know if it is still available and I have the means to get it what would I do. I do want the book quite a bit. I always liked Hawkgirl she ranked as a like who I like more and more I see her in animation and in TV shows like the Flash. I love characters if an actor really makes them magical. For instance I liked the Black Widow Natasha. I loved her when Scarlet brought her to life. Same with Scarlet Witch on the male side I always loved Dr Strange but when Benedict came in I absolutely love him...it is that type of thing. I was always a Spidey guy though now diversifying my collection. $2.50 first appearances when I was 12 almost 46 are now selling in the 1000s I just couldn't afford them and put the bulk of what I was able to spend on Spiderman books. I loved Ghost Rider as well and as with the others I only managed to buy a few here and there. I managed to buy his first appearance graded 4.5 CGC Marvel Spotlight 5 for $550 it is now well over $1000 he makes MCU appearance it will get close to $5k ask. The books are so crazy. There are people who wheel and deal books nothing else making what someone makes with stocks you just have to know the markets and what to do to be successful. Nowadays crypto. I will stick to stocks :-) with comics as a collective passion. I have one Amazing Spiderman 1 left I gave one copy to my best buddy. Paid $6400 for that copy it has an ask price of over $12,000 someone could probably get $9 to $10k for it. The copy I have left a CBCS 4.5 I overpaid at the time $16,500 there is an ask of $22,000 for it I could probably get about even up to $18k. Books even as super key issues are not easy to sell you have to be real patient or make the offering too good for someone to walk away from. Like I said I will stick to stocks to make money and buy the toys but just with more discipline moving forward.
