Excellent advice 👍👍. Love some FC

christofir

At the time, it was Jassy and Wilke as co-CEO’s. Wilke was more of an FC / Operator. Jassy was seen as THE cloud compute/AWS genius boy. Not sure Wilke would have done better. Maybe you could have gotten Adam Silipsky.

Yardieinvest

I agree AMZ has been in the automation space since at least 2012 when they 1st bought out KIVA robotics to augment order fulfillment in their DC’s and they’ve evolved to where automation is a primary enabler within the FC operations. I think you’re onto something that they’ll soon be selling their automation capabilities or other businesses and that might evolve as adjacent materially significant revenue stream similar to AWS.

There is literally a single company competing...with the rocket they first successfully launched in 2010 lol 1 Chinese company is catching up (technically it's an improvement) with the 10 times as expensive FC9 Nobody is even THINKING of competing with Starship, hell the Europeans haven't even started working on a re-usable rocket and you think SpaceX is going to fall behind "soon" I'll say "Tesla/Musk bad" if it makes you feel better

SomewhereOpposite883

1. They have a natural monopoly...with the FC9 that costs 10 times as much as Starship will 2. The actual secret is that it's not SpaceX that will make them money but Starlink, pretty much their entire operating costs is shooting stuff into space so you just have to do some napkin math to model what's possible once they start flying Starship The actual value proposition is that Starlink will outcompete every single ISP on a GLOBAL scale Imagine if tomorrow there is a fastfood chain that doesn't need to open any restaurants, just the click of a button and everyone in a country can now order their burger with instant delivery no matter where they live, not only that but their moat is that literally no one else is even close to achieving that technology while the competition is operating in a separate industry SpaceX is so far ahead all the Starlink competitors are...using their rockets to launch their satellites How is McDonalds supposed to compete? You think AT&T are going to start building rockets? 800 billion for SpaceX makes sense even if you assume they somehow don't sell a single spot on the rockets just based on Starlink alone, the entire global ISP market is worth 2.84 trillion according to AI, that number is probably wrong but it's close enough to a rough ballpark figure The real question is whether Elon can pull it off, considering i didn't believe in their plan for re-usable rockets when it was all based on a dream and now they are straight up already testing Starship i don't see why not My biggest concern is that Musk might try to merge his companies, folding SpaceX into the dumpsterfire that is Tesla, an idea that he has been talking about more and more recently Oh and of course this is a VC-style analysis looking at the (realistic but unlikely) potential, if you're not the person to believe in the Amazons, Googles and Stripes of the world just disregard everything i just said and stick to buying ETFs

Glum_Accident829

IIRC if you look at USPS reports, it's the opposite. They're losing the most money on urban these days. The whole rural mail carrier thing has kind of been figured. I feel like you see it on Amazon's flex driver and FC subreddits. Drivers will slit each other's throats to before delivering to some inaccessible / confusing urban apartments.

Scott7894

First off there’s too many variables. As a former FC how old are you, are you investing in a retirement account, are you getting dividends and what are you investing in. In other words you probably should not sell even if the market drops because if you continue to invest even when it goes down you will take advantage of lower prices. Go talk to a professional CFP

dvdmovie1

I'd like another FC game, so hope that they're not a 0 but feels like either a zero or a maybe a buyout but that probably isn't going to be what people would hope because it's a buyout in a position of weakness (and that's if it even does occur.)

No, it was founded in San Mateo, California. They had acquired a development studio in Vancouver in the early 90s (Distinctive Software) that produces FC and other titles though. It is one, if not the largest, dev studio under the EA Sports brand.

I see this is the cope going around in all over reddit but Valhalla, Odyssey, and FC5 are their all-time bestselling games. I wonder what happened with Shadows to drastically change their fortune...

buttplugs4life4me

It's so sad cause I loved Far Cry 3 and AC 4/5. FC3 was literally why I bought an AMD GPU back then to use Mantle with it lol Such a downfall. I hope someone picks up the pieces and makes proper games again.  It felt like they tried to switch to a FIFA/sports game release cycle with a new version every year with some minor updates and new characters and that's just not the right type of game for that...

Look I’ll dole out shit when they earned it, but I would have loved if FC6 was a copy paste of FC5.

Flat revenue FC is for FY2025 not 2026. This is including the loss of Starbucks NA as customer (end 2024) - so they compensated this with growht in other areas... They will also beat the guidance, since first 3 quarters growth 1.4% is already above the guidance - where best quarter is always Q4. So overall, net of Starbucks 2025 growth will be +5%, in the turnaround year they were significantly improved profitability... Not so many companies can achieve both at the same time...

redditdinosaur_

Honestly I think he’s a bit overrated these days. He accomplished a ton, but nowadays he uses tons of strategies out of reach to the typical investor like taking actual stakes in GS during the FC. He also wasn’t that early in Apple, he didn’t invest until 2016.

I know. Still, not relevant. I alone would not matter even if I owned 100x more. That's why I want to advocate the disapproval vote and spread the word. It's a bad deal for gamers and honestly it is not a good deal for investors either. 25% premium, yeah, but honestly EA could already be up significantly after BF6 launch that paid all the development budget off in a week. The past 9 months has been a constant linear uptrend and the stock could have reached +200 USD by sale close time at this pace with momentum alone. Current earnings are not great but EA is trading at historical average P/S ratio of 6. However, EA's products have also been shit in the last years and now they are actually making things better. Not to mention how much potential AI has to cut development costs. \-EA Madden NFL 25 topped the revenue charts as the number one in August \- EA Sports FC 26 broke records and was the number one selling game by revenue in September \-Battlefield 6 looks like is going to be top selling game in October. 7 million sold in 3 days, which covers the whole development budget of 400 million $ even without considering phantom edition sales and probably upcoming in-game purchases. \-USD has depreciated 12% since the beginning of the year, and if current policies continue, it is likely to continue depreciating. But EA prices their games in foreign currency. This will automatically will increase USD denoted revenues. EA reached 1.6B earnings with a revenue of 5 billion in 2018. The market cap peaked at 43B USD. which adjusted for inflation is already $55.48 surpassing the acquisition price. Now revenue is already 50% higher without that much success in game charts EPS has been down as revenue has barely been able to cover development costs that are fixed in nature. Now revenue is likely to smash estimates EOY and this is likely to push EPS up significantly. 25Q3 and especially 25Q4 earnings are going to skyrocket. Probably PIF and the rest of the consortium knows this as they are significant shareholders with a share of 10% already, which is why they can justify the acquisition even with significant leverage.

There is two parts why I bought more 1) I own the stock (even though I'm really not a compounder bro. Prefer cigarbutts and other roadkill) because their machinery of buying VMS at low multiples can work quite well in Europe. FC2S growths and compounds reasonably fast 2) Mark Leonard doesn't really matter all that much to Topicus' operations. He built a decentralized culture around smart capital allocation that works without him. CSU stock correcting took Topicus down with it.

Madden definitely makes money, but FC makes them way more.

Madden is big in the US, but their biggest earner by far is EA FC, formerly FIFA. Losing the name did not hurt them much. FC 25 underperformed mainly because the game was a buggy mess.

Not true at all. Fifa/FC (same game, still printing billions) and the Sims have been their cash cows historically.

GOSS is a little different from ATYR. ATYR’s big Phase 3 just missed its primary endpoint, while GOSS is still in the middle of its pivotal trial. PROSERA builds on the earlier TORREY Phase 2 — same drug, but much larger (390 vs 86 patients) and with a sicker cohort (74% FC III vs \~42% in TORREY, worse baseline walk distance and NT-proBNP). The design was refined to give a clearer read on efficacy, and topline results are expected Feb 2026.

Fwiw - I don't particularly like MerrillEdge's service offering. But some of their FC's have offered some very personal service above and beyond what most of retail brokers are able or willing to provide to my family. And it may be easiest solution for now. It does depend on where you live and your relationship with BofA/Merrill. BofA's MerrillEdge actually has it's roots as one the oldest self-managed brokerages in the industry. I think most people just don't realize it because of the Merrill branding. It was actually one of the first brokers that offered free trades to eligible customers before Robinhood existed. Sorry for your loss.

Yes. You can, embellished is the roles she’s held. Registered rep (didn’t dig deeper than brokercheck) at vanguard is likely phone rep otherwise Fidelity would have hired her as a FA or FC as they’re named, here’s an example of someone on your site who was FA at Fidelity: https://files.brokercheck.finra.org/individual/individual_5052295.pdf There’s no way Fidelity would list her as a client management rep if she was in advisory role. Bayntree does list their rep roles as IAR vs FA (don’t blame them, they’re small/younger) on sec site but they’re FA. So likely she was able to get FA through her licensing and experience at vanguard/fidelity where she was client relationship vs advising. Here’s an example of that for bayntree if it matters since we’re also pulling up sec: https://reports.adviserinfo.sec.gov/reports/individual/individual_7252844.pdf https://www.bayntree.com/scottsdale-financial-advisors#team ^ bayntree site that lists him as FA. Embellishment is stating she worked as advisor at Fidelity when she’s had 7 years of financial experience where 2 years are in advisory capacity at bayntree. This would be more accurate and less embellished imho.

Yes it was, and if you’re a market knows everything all the time type, you just proved yourself wrong. Since the FC, markets (of nearly all kinds) have been incredibly predictable as the system is at nearly full capacity support mode.

I'm middle management so I'm not high enough on the food chain to know the numbers, but I can see the insane amount of RSR (reserve stow rack) buildings we have opened over the last year and I can see the fullness of the FC's. My FC is 120% full, which is something we usually only see during the holiday Peak season. We used to just have a few of the RSR around the US to store things we bought in bulk but did not sell much of. When orange man started mentioning tariffs on the campaign trail, that exploded. It does not take long to open one of these buildings because it is literally just a giant box with racking in it. There are empty warehouses everywhere just waiting for someone like Amazon to fill them up. Can launch one of them in just a few months. I do not believe they are reserved for low turnover goods anymore. You are correct though that I can't prove any of it, and I wouldn't if I could for fear of my job. However I have been with Amazon for a long time now and I know how they operate. Amazon is always playing the long game.

Eisernes

I work in Amazon fulfillment. We have been prepping for this since last year. FC's are overflowing, some 140% capacity or more. We also opened dozens of FC that don't do anything but hold pallet after pallet of goods just waiting. These are large 1.5-2million sq ft warehouses with nothing in them but racks and forklifts. They have very few employees. Also keep in mind that Fulfillment doesn't exist to make money. Amazon fulfillment is a giant advertising scheme. It puts that Amazon smile box on every porch and rolling billboards on the highways to keep people on Prime for the advertising and AWS. Amazon is also very patient. Just like China, Amazon can do this way longer than cheeto mussolini can. I would be a lot more concerned about Wal Mart and Target.

At Schwab cash has to be manually moved to the "purchased money market" funds. SWVXX and SNSXX, for example. [Here is the full list](https://www.schwab.com/money-market-funds). Could that be what this is about? If so, that is the right thing to do. And Schwab makes money off of people who fail to do it. For example, my wife received an inheritance last year, and our FC called her to make sure that she was planning to make that move. Note that it would have been in Schwab's interest for her to just let it sit as cash, but he was making sure that she did not make that mistake. Handling a family member's investments is a mine field. Other family members can get their noses out of joint even when things are done properly. My suggestion, having been down this road, is to get a real financial advisor to manage the portfolio. And the Schwab Consultant can help you find the right match (doing so has been Schwab's bread and butter for a long time). It is not about the fees, it is about you not being the lightning rod for imagined wrongs.

D74248

Is this a consultant or an advisor? Schwab Consultants are like greeters at Home Depot. They are not there to sell you anything, they are there to answer questions and help you find whatever thing you are looking for. And yes, they do call every 6 months or so to check in. Ours has been excellent in helping with some unusual issues and actually advised us to continue to self manage. If the elderly person is not in a position to manage their portfolio then they need a financial advisor, and the FC could help them find one. A lot is missing from this story.

greytoc

If they are not an IAR - they are not supposed to provide advice. Are you sure your Schwab FC is not a registered person.? My Schwab FC is a registered person and IAR. But I don't use him with a managed account. If you want feedback on your question - you have to share what they were suggesting.

greytoc

All IAR's are legally bound to a fiduciary standard even if they are not a fiduciary. Don't get hung up on the concept if you are unfamiliar. There's a lot of misunderstandings on social media and in this subreddit about what fiduciary means. Also - why do you think that an FC is suggesting an equity model vs a fixed income model?

I liked it, it was slightly improved from FC4 in terms of overall gameplay, but 4’s world and villain etc was so captivating that the minor smoothing of the experience didn’t top FC4 for me. I haven’t done 6 I checked out for now

Since the start of 2024, gold has surged 44%, outpacing the S&P 500’s 29% gain. This rise is driven by central banks worldwide selling U.S. Treasuries and increasing their gold reserves, aiming to hedge against the potential decline of the U.S. dollar due to inflation. Additionally, geopolitical concerns have intensified after the U.S. froze assets belonging to countries like Russia and Venezuela, prompting nations to seek alternatives to dollar-denominated reserves. At the same time, futures contracts on Comex in New York are increasingly being settled with physical gold rather than cash, leading to record transfers of gold from London to New York. The London gold exchange, which once fulfilled delivery requests in days, now requires 4–8 weeks—indicating a tightening supply of physical gold. A major concern is the leverage in the paper gold market, where 200 paper contracts exist for every ounce of physical gold. If this imbalance were to unwind in a disorderly manner, it could have significant repercussions for the financial system. See below.

I worked for Amazon for almost 10 years...No one in an Amazon FC is being Magento work 80 weeks, the pay was at least as high, if not higher, than every other like warehouse around, benefits were great and all of them started immediately (including health insurance), and the warehouses are extremely safe. Every person who was injured that I knew of did it to themselves by not following the rules. I think Amazon explained to them what all they would probably lose if they voted for the union.

Hi I didn’t submit FC? The stock or ticker is EA.

Amazon FCs stock Prime products for same/next/2 day shipping. Any product listed Prime is already in the US and didn’t apply for the de-minimis exception. If you buy non Prime items then there is a *chance* is coming direct from China, but could also just be in a non Amazon FC warehouse in the US

Amazon has been prepping for this for a while now. Warehouses that just store goods for other Amazon warehouses are the fastest growing FC in the company. It might affect some drop ship sellers, but they are the minority on the platform. And no one with more than 2 brain cells orders anything from China on Ebay. It's a guaranteed fake.

Sooo.. EA has earnings tomorrow after close. The stock dropped to 116 after the ceo gave a preearnings report that FC25 was a total flop. Since then the stock has risen 8% back up to 123. Who in their right mind would see this as a buying opportunity, knowing full well the earnings call is going to probably drop the price even lower?

Tomorrow around noon when they roll out Tom "FC" Lee: "I actually think that this is a good thing. Free AI means that we can charge for more for other things like Wendy's ZJ's. Spy $700 EOY."

You are 19 and maxing a Roth and you started last year!!!! Kudos man… you don’t need anyone’s help, you are on the right path. Remember: your first loss will be your greatest learning experience. And you will learn with every win and loss from that point on. Your gains honestly won’t teach you much… they give you a false sense that this is easy and anyone can do it…. It’s how you handle the losses. If and when a recession actually occurs, Meme stocks fall hard big, hard and first…. Usually everything falls, the key is to be nimble enough to cut your losses. My lessons learned 1. Never let a gain turn into a loss 2. Play with the houses money. Doesn’t matter how hi it’s going to go, take out your initial investment and let it ride if you have that much conviction. 3. Diversify, even in your brokerage account (i started out like you, now my brokerage account has more in it than my 403b, Roth and 457 put together). 4. Diversity helps you navigate the downs. 5. A rising tide lifts all boats, even the shitty ones that should be sinking…. 6. Own the best house in the best neighborhood. ( best stock in the best sectors) 7. Owning the best house in a shitty neighborhood does you no good (due to ETFs, if you own the best stock in a crappy sector, ETFs will bring that best stock down as the sector falls - rare exceptions). 8. No more than 10% of what you invest in speculation - ie: IPOs, meme, startups…. Basically gambling. 9. You have to own enough of a stock to make it worth your time and energy if it goes up. (Warren buffet). - i learned this when i owned FC Stonegroup - i had $1,800 in like 30 names…. It got a takeover offer and i was exited… until i realized that the $1800 is now $2500 and i still have to go to work the next day… If i would have consolidated to 10 good names and stuck with those, i would have been much better off…. My 5800 would have been 7600 and i could take a few weeks off back then. 10. Always have an exit strategy - it’s easy to buy… but when do you sell? Good luck man! Write down your lessons learned as you learn them and always look back at them. Share them with your friends and family as you get older.

I understand the speculation, but based on the investments and new partnerships they are putting into this company at 0.04 a share I see a great opportunity into putting in enough where your not breaking the bank but enough to see a great profit in the long run. Financial Initiatives: 1. Capital Distribution Agreement with FC Imperial Limited: • In July 2024, XTI entered into an agreement with FC Imperial Limited, an affiliate of FinExic Concordia Group, for a proposed strategic equity investment of up to $55 million. This investment, at a post-money valuation of $275 million, is intended to support the development of the TriFan 600.

At the time of the great Barcelona (Messi, Xavi, Iniesta...) I bet on a victory for Valencia at FC Barcelona. The odds were 20 and I bet €25 for a gain of €500 in terms of return on investment, it wasn't bad

Nice. Good for you. Sounds like you got training in trading while working.. love it. I used to work at Etrade and saw some wild portfolios and traders too. Those were the days. I'm an FC but not at Schwab. I'm still working and subscribing more to a coast fire mentality. I'm 38 so I got some years before I wanna hang up the gloves for real. My portfolio is growing and I think about retiring in the next 5-10 years based on my portfolio growth rate. I still don't know what I would want to do with so much time in "early retirement" either. Thanks for sharing.

Decrease in Chinese consumers and also a general sales decline in brands like LV and Dior. I don't own any shares but overall I think there's still steady demand in the long term. They're also buying Paris FC and starting a global partnership with Formula 1 next year which is kinda interesting

No I wasn't an FC. I started in their broker trainee program as a CSR. Then passed the series 7 and became a broker. Then did the active trader training and took the STS calls. Then joined the AI500 team(for clients who trade over 500 times a year). Then they had me taking overflow calls for the options team when they were busy. And sometimes I would do other random stuff like tutoring for people studying for the series 7, training classes for new employees/brokers/advanced options, covering for team managers when they wanted to go on vacation, etc. And for like a year I was part of this new team that would call people that left negative surveys for us. I don't think I would have enjoyed being an FC. I wanted to be deep in the weeds with trading and options. And yeah retired early at age 33

mayday2600

You sound like me. Schwab 9 years as an FC? Did you retire early? If so, what was that like
