Cramer and many “gurus” never or rarely mention debt or gross margin, yet both items (albeit GM doesn’t apply to all companies) are critical. I understand interest rates are low, but mountains of debt are a hurdle regardless.

P/E's are good quick reference. I love to to see a revenue growth trend.
But probably my biggest factors are:
1. Can I understand the business?
2. Does it have a moat?
3. What does the future hold for the company?
4. Earnings growth.
5. Free cash flow.......and can it pay off debt with the free cash flow in a few short years.
6. What price am I comfortable buying in at?

Canopy Growth, Acreage plan U.S. launch of cannabis-infused beverages in 2021
Acreage expects to launch Canopy's select, sessionable THC beverages in the summer of 2021 in legal adult-use markets in Illinois and California. "We see THC-infused beverages as a game-changer in U.S. cannabis, and we are excited to launch Canopy Growth's unique beverage offerings to our core...
Interesting bit of news.....might need verification. Apparently the US Market averages about a 2% return during the first year of a new POTUS. And with the economy.....next yr may suck. But it might be good buying opportunity.
Don't know OKE. Energy befuddles me.
Bought FTNT while selling ATVI. It had been good for me but I think FTNT will be a better investment especially at its current price.

My SPWH up 20.3% in a month since I bought, still $3-4 more per share perhaps, EDUC up nearly 5% in a week, looks like a steadily growing stock of a small company-kids’ quality books to read at home for fun and knowledge.
Tomorrow should be interesting...

All right. Let's see what you guys think about this:
I'm about to add to my ADSK position tomorrow but I saw that there is unusual options activity for the Oct 9 $210 put. 3100 open interest. The stock is at $228.
Any thoughts?
Edit: I checked an options calc and that drop is over 2SDs of change. They gave it 0% chance of happening. It's only a 7.9% change though.

Looked at it. Liked some fundamentals. Backed out.
Supposedly, OKE gas volumes have been increasing. Might be worth a risk, even with a possible dividend cut. Winter is coming.
My sisters' and John Lennon's birthday. Could sell some upside calls if you think it's too risky at $228 but I'm not an options guy either.
EDUC up another 10.7% this AM after its pre EPS report coming late next Tuesday. Still a young company and those with young kids should view its catalog of quality books for your young kids. My wife recently ordered a cheaper sticker book for our 3 year old autistic niece about animals and reptiles, can’t quit reading it herself, very educational.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to give stock tips, but I purchased Peloton (PTON) two weeks ago and it's made me almost 20% since then. Another educational stock to watch is EDUC.
Did you read my comment above on EDUC? Awesome products for kids eventually mean a solid stock.
Right now, I'm bullish on Walmart.
While it's grown nicely over the last decade, I think the best is yet to come. Little by little they've been changing their business model. They want to challenge Amazon in online sales. COVID has forced them to adapt to grocery pick up. Etc, etc.

My KR is inflexible, request anything and the local management’s hands have been tied by the home office for many years. I once asked why there were several rows of a particular brand that wasn’t popular, yet only one row of the brand locals bought fast every week. He just grinned and shrugged “I said I know, inventory selection is out of your control locally.” Some of the Kroger brand cheeses started going bad on us after a few days about once a month despite great expiration dates, no refund once you take them out of the store, so we get cheese at Aldi now. Unhappy, but no real competition locally.
Hmm, I've never had an issue with refunds. Meat and dairy is where they usually shine as well. I took back a stale box of Kroger brand grahams crackers 2 weeks ago just one day before expiration and they will either replace it or refund my money. If something scans wrong, I take it to the service desk and get it free or $5.00 and a new item if it costs over that amount.
Of course they have competition here, even in their home city. In fact, Target is in the same shopping center as my store. Fresh Thyme is across the street. Aldi is a half mile away tops.
Look closely at any Kroger brand block cheese if you buy it.
WKHS and DHCP....patience appears ready to pay off. Both up over 10% today on date set for DHCP merger vote and WKHS USPS contract speculation. My first big single stock rodeo and I learned a lot.
I haven't in a while but every Kroger brand I buy says Quality Guaranteed with an 800 number on it. Doesn't mean I'll buy it though. Especially if I don't like it or it's a hassle to return. I've just never had the return issue. Although many store brands are good, all aren't. Their vanilla wafers are turrible.
JNJ down less than 2% on the Covid trial news. Probably has to be bought now after earnings. We'll see.
I bought about 20 shares of Nio yesterday........boom, today up 17.5%.
*update*......now over 23% for the day.

-Looked at NIO. Probably buy in if it ever drops. It's been on the watch list.
-Looking at AMWL, similar to TDOC. Not a question of if I buy, but when.
-BAC looking really good now. JPM as well. I think they put plenty aside for the forecasted downturn. WFC, not so much.

I too am looking at BAC. I bought JPM on the dip for ~$87.
I've heard that because the fed is going to hold interest rates down for years.......that it's going to hold banks down for a few yrs as well. Great to buy and hold.....but it'll take a while........i guess its more time to buy.

Just bought a couple shares of JD. I wanted to strengthen during a little pull back before the Holiday season.....and before earnings come out in December.
Unfortunately I've only had very small position in it thus far. I'm looking to strengthen my position and hold long term.
Started very small but went with some growth and value this week.
