MMM = Market Manipulation Mondays!

InsertFunAliasHere

Schwab's Thinkorswim has the MMM at about $1... and the volume is terribly low. No one is going to buy it unless they're as gullible as I was last week with BRUN. https://preview.redd.it/wi6c4yft7m1h1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ccf20727769489447e559c03207ea1fdbbfecdc2

21M? Are you looking for MMF or MMM?

iYoloNDX0DTEs

I should be more precise: MMM dipped $3 on 1 volume. 

iYoloNDX0DTEs

MMM dips $3 on like 8 volume.   This is why I have trust issues.

I don’t know what the next five years will bring. Or the next ten years. But as far as my retirement savings go, I’m not going to go to cash and time the market. But I will be happy any time my contributions let me buy more shares of the same funds I’d normally buy I agree P/Es have gotten extreme even with the least exciting stocks. MMM trades at 21 times earnings. So does Microsoft. Deere trades at over 30 times earnings, so does Apple, Amazon and Nvidia It really seems that over the last few decades, Wall Street has agreed amongst themselves that these ratios should be considered normal and are doing what they can to sustain them. Because then alternative would mean a major dislocation.

If it ever turns into a MMM shaped economy, I’ll make some money!

iShitBloodandCumShit

MMM about to send it straight back down.

iShitBloodandCumShit

MMM: still dumping lmao.

iShitBloodandCumShit

Real talk, probably short MMM. Megaphone top.

iShitBloodandCumShit

Hot damn. 68k order just hit the tap on MMM. Not sure if it was a buy or sell.

iShitBloodandCumShit

MMM could also be a breakout fakeout.

iShitBloodandCumShit

MMM is also flirting with the EMA20 on the 15. Could be a good long.

iShitBloodandCumShit

MMM has bigly short gamma at 135 and 100. 15 minute macd just crossed over to bullish.

iShitBloodandCumShit

3M MMM has some nasty fucking gaps that could be filled and ruin this long term C&H

A lot of comments wondering why SPY isn't crashing. For it to crash, we need GOOG, NVDA, and AAPL to crash. if they crash, it won't be just because, it will be because a narrative shift, because these stocks are viewed as safe havens from the economy/inflation to a certain degree. So when they crash, there will be FUD in the media and you won't want to own them. The next largest components of the indexes are already in correction/crash for the most part. I think your/my own sake, we need to look for individual stock opportunities in this market. You have to go against the media narratives though. Ex. buy consumer stocks in Oct-Nov when the media was fear mongering about more tariffs hitting one day (even though said companies had already given figures on how much tariffs would cost). Or utilities last summer when we feared a pause in rate hikes. Now I am seeing the fear mongering on credit card overdone and some consumer staples like MMM and HD down hard to points they usually bounce form. PE is crashing but it may crash more because sentiment is untied to reality. Either way, instead of waiting for 2008 to repeat, maybe buy some MMM or HD or PG or wait for banks to finish dropping and buy JPM. AMT is another good stock that never gets discussed here and it's down a little

Available-Range-5341

I think now is a good time to buy CRM, MSFT, AMT, HD, BX, and PG. Maybe ES. BX may be a bit controversial, but the rest are good AND all dipped a bit so you're getting a bit of a sale, which is why I recommend them. MMM and CLX are in dips after recent rallies so might be good to I'm assuming you're saying you don't care about the next ten years but I am sure at some level, you'd be pissed if you lost $ tomorrow, hence I recommend things already down but with good earnings Actually making this list I realized credit card stocks are way down too, maybe AXP is a buy?

I bought some MMM, HD, and CRM on dips in the middle of the day. BUT sold it when it recovered. No way in hell am I holding stuff overnight at this point.

Available-Range-5341

The pain has been rotating all year. This week it's in HD, MMM, PG type stocks + banks Many tech stocks that already crashed up are but they already crashed

Available-Range-5341

I feel like such an idiot. I bought MMM on the "dip" holy shit, I think I am the last person who bought it. Fucking hell. So sick of the shit the past year, I'm about to just go all CDs.

The shockingly simple math, as presented by MMM describes that it is simply a combination of burn rate and savings rate. Save more and reduce your burn rate to hit your target exit date. https://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2012/01/13/the-shockingly-simple-math-behind-early-retirement/

That's just the way its' designed. Market maker's are the one's who control the Markets. Have you noticed the little gold or yellow MMM on the trade screen? That means Market Makers Method. Google exactly what Market Makers do and hopefully that will give you little clarity

MMM. This. is. a. tasty. burger.

I got some short puts and PMCC on $XOM, $CVX, $MMM, and $HAL. They’re a bit of boomer stocks but you need the capital and connections to play the energy and infrastructure game. Oh and $DOW too.

As others have said, with only a 3 year time horizon do not invest in stocks. Just stick to a CD or a high yielding moment market fund. However, I don't know if you have an IRA for retirement or not but if you don't, this is a great opportunity to fund it and that I would put it in the stock market with VOO which is a S&P 500 index ETF. The S&P 500 invest in America's 500 largest blue chip companies like Walmart, Microsoft, Apple, Coke, Johnson & Johnson and MMM for a few examples.

thanks - i'm acutely watching the MMM's predictions for $GT lately i'm honestly hoping for $9.25-$9.50 before they expire and I'll be cashing out a decent chunk of change

greenpride32

The main reason GOOGL was discounted was due to DOJ case and potential for breakup of parts which would really hurt their advertising revenue. Any time a company faces a substantial risk from unknown outcome, their stock will sit lower as some funds are simply risk averse and will not take any chances they have no control over. Just look at MMM chart - they had potential litigation for hearing devices that could near bankrtupt the company. Once that case was settled and the outcome known, it traded back to where it was. So parts of the rally are no threat of breakup, growth of cloud computing division, and now some deals for TPU. But it wasn't all "growth".

prana_fish

Mmm-MMM this theta manipulation some serious gourmet shit.

gggg500

I’d just go: 75% SPY, 15% BND, 10% cash. If you wanted to buy some individual companies to throw into the mix: PEP - soda and snacks giant CAT or DE - farm and heavy equipment MSFT - O/S software GOOG - search engine, Ai, maps, email, YouTube, it basically has it all. META - social media, Ai AMZN - consumer goods, web servers, Ring MMM - all kinds of materials, industrial and consumer, spun off its ear plug division which has serious legal issues BK - large integrated global bank, too big to fail PM - global tobacco manufacturer DIS - entertainment, legacy media

DGB31988

There will be a correction with all the tech stocks at some point but I think we have another 3-5 years of the run where each company is up a few percent every week. And then when it does correct I think it will correct to a level that is higher than today’s numbers. Anytime I see correction it’s weekly. Every day like today is usually owed up by a day of people taking gains and putting money into my 2-3% div yield stocks. When NVDA is up 3%. The next day it’s down 2% and my MMM, MO, PG are up a similar amount. It’s like clockwork. This week I think will be more gains as earnings are posting plus interest rates will likely get lowered but honestly that shit is all baked in at this point, half point here and there. Only way that would change if it’s some wild full point or 2 swing (that isn’t going to happen). The folks that take money out aren’t going to go into cash in their mattress. They are just going to buy dividend paying energy and consumer staples. So the overall market should stay strong. I think the western economies will stay strong until all the boomer money runs out which is some point several decades down the road after the millennials and gen Zrs deplete that giant inherited 50 trillion dollar nest egg through taxes and debt repayment. The concerning thing to me is unemployment. All these companies posting amazing quarters are laying off thousands of employees. That doesn’t bode well for the economy in my opinion and AI is still a novelty. However I do think there is a lot of get off my lawn stuff that we last heard when computers started to become a thing. This tech is revolutionary and is only going to continue to improve.

Take a look at these stocks, based on recent earning's reports this week. Some of the stocks reporting great earnings & revenue actually had price drop. ISRG, BSX, APH, RTX, COF, MMM, VRT & GE

RayU_AZ

**I think 60-100 stocks is too many to mangage. especially around quarterly earnings reporting.** I have about 20 stocks holdings in a portfolio that always beats the returns of the S&P 500 index. Try to pick the best stocks in each sector to make your stocks more managable. When I find a new stock I like, then I liquidate the stock that hasn't been performaing the best in my holdings. I usually make my moves during quarterly earnings reporting. ISRG, BSX, APH, RTX, COF, MMM, VRT and GE had good earnings reports recently. I still manage to have a watchlist of 60 stocks, but I manage then in groups of similar sectors or categories for comparison, categories of Banks, IT Software, semi-conductors, utilities, Healthcare, retail, etc...Then I can easily separate the best of the sector.

TimTimmaeh

Couldn’t agree more.. Latest examples where MMM, MC, KER … at the moment I would bet on Healthcare and Consumer Staples.

Blackhole_sun81

MMM day You got to be kidding me…. 

ImperialSlug

Good Question. I went looking... Vanguard. JP Morgan. Chase. Barclays. Goldman. etc. These are the buyers. The rules of the ETF's mean that every $100 you DCA into VOO, someone somewhere is buying approx. $7.75 of NVDA, $6.87 MSFT $6.32 AAPL........>....$1.71 TSLA....>.... 15c DASH, 15c MMM .....>....1c NWS. They need to buy those from the open market. Pushing up the price. Interesting data here: [look at VOO Fund flows recently](https://etfdb.com/etf/VOO/#fund-flows). Some big number are getting out of VOO recently.

liam30604

I invested in CLS a couple of years ago in my small portfolio and it has blown up since then. I'm now sitting at about 55% of my portfolio in just CLS, with some of the remaining being in MMM, RKLB, LQDA and HPE all doubling their return or more. I'd like to make some moves and add some other stocks to my portfolio by selling off about half of my CLS shares and getting around $4,000 from that. What would be some good, safe stocks that I could add with that return? Or should I just get more shares of what I currently have?

SeraphimSphynx

I would not trade your HYSA for a money market mutual account. The extra return you get right now from the MMM maybe 0.5%? Where as plenty of FDIC insured HYSA right. Have rates of 3.75% etc. Look up the 2008 money market mutual account losses. SEC insured is not a orit from from investment losses.

Ambitious-Ocelot8036

I STO $11,123, BTC $4852, Dividends 780, fees 54, Net Total $6,996.77. 82 contracts CC's & CSP's various stocks (AMZN, GME, GDX, TQQQ, NVDA, TSM, HWM, MMM), 3 to 30 day expiration.

I cycled out of a few positions in one of my ETFs back in June and late July, I had stopped buying this one a while because the management fee were higher then my other funds and it wasn't out performing them. I had a couple lots that were lagging anyway so the gains tax will be minimal, I also had very little cash because I went all in late last year early this year as it was falling, so the sales freed some up. Anyway the result was I have some cash but it's less then 7% of the total portfolio, it's in a MMM earning like 4.7, if the market does go down I'll liquidate it, buy more and go all in again, having said that I definitely missed some of the recent gains. Point is if you want to do some tax loss harvesting or sell some laggards to move to better index funds or free up some cash, that's one thing, pulling large %s of the portfolio out is a mistake.

Laureles2

I think one of the biggest issues is that it's hard to trust the data come out of the Chinese government and Chinese businesses. Nothing is audited to the level of Western companies. Also, unless you're buying on Chinese exchanges, what you're getting with BABA and BIDU doesn't even give you rights to company equity or stock. It's not the same as if you buy MMM or AMZN. I'm not saying that things will turn out poorly, and I do own a small amount of BIDU and BABA myself, but look into it so you know what you're getting into.

julick

Here, you start speaking like the founder of MMM, the Russian ponzi scheme that has unraveled in the early 90s. Still the largest ponzi scheme in the history. His theory was that human greed, a natural and innate feeling, will keep the scheme alive. He argued that the higher the promised return, the higher the greed and the longer people will keep the money, thus keeping the MMM going in perpetuity. You know how it ends right? You make different angles, but the way you describe this virtual asset that is barely recognizable as a currency, is just a justification for the bags you are holding probably. Anyways. Good luck and hope all goes well for you.

Single_Afternoon_386

I didn’t buy heavy but dabbled in 2008. Lulu I got in the $40s PHM at $8. There were others but I sold Lulu at $90 thinking it’s athletic wear and it went to $500 and PHM is at $110. You can never time the market so now I’ve learned take profit and be happy but try not to buy at the top. I look forward to solid companies having a bad earnings report so I can snatch up cheaper shares. I got MMM at $80 when it dropped and then sold around $130.

callmecrude

Unless you are VERY knowledgeable in these industries, contrarian investing like this is usually a coin flip. UNH and NOVO are two recent examples, but over the past few years there’s been dozens of them. BABA, NKE, PYPL, MMM, CRWD, CVNA, etc, etc, etc. All of them went through rough patches similar to UNH and NOVO. Some have recovered and some haven’t. It’s VERY complicated trying to figure out which are short term issues and which are long-term problems. Only advice I have is to make sure your entire portfolio isn’t full of stocks like this. Diversify with some growth companies or blue chips or something.

GammaSeeker44

The pricing is dependent on how much time the option has to expire, as well as potential volatility. For UNH, the stock has been beaten down and super cheap from an earning perspective, which could cause the stock to potentially run (which is why you’re looking to buy)… but others know that as well so they’re not going to sell you options at the “lower” cost your seeking. Other potential stocks that have been beaten down: ASML, MMM, TGT, LOW. (I am not advocating for any of these, and only own ASML out of this group) Google… while not beaten down, imo it’s undervalued. The stock I’m getting more bullish on is HRGT… it’s not sexy, but it’s a growing small cap company that has consistently beat earnings.

bossofmytime

I am mainly into dividend growth businesses in various sectors. Some of them that I hold are XOM, WFC, O, T, MMM, … all 11 positions give me USD 39,000 passive income this year while I sleep. My total invested amount is USD 650k, which includes USD 195.5 k dividend received in total since end 2015 (this is after 30% withholding tax as I am not US citizen) that I reinvested in. Original invested amount of USD 650k has grown to USD 1.4 million.

I dont know what ive been told but Eskimo pussy is mighty cold. MMM, good.. Feels good... Is good... Real good... Tastes good... Mighty good... Good for you... Good for me...

ShadowLiberal

I mean nothing lasts forever. MMM used to be cited as a golden stock that every dividend investor should have in their portfolio. But they've really fallen apart in the last few years, and they lost their dividend king status after cutting their dividend.

AntoniaFauci

This part is most interesting: > let’s list the current most favored stocks (as of mid-April 2022): SPGI, NKE, FANG, COP, and ADBE (all over 90% buy rated). The current least favored stocks are CLX, MMM, and FL (majority sell rated).

How big is your bank roll? I think you are correct in your assessment of Selling vs Buying. Buying a Call hoping the stock goes up and you 4x your money is much riskier than own 100 shares of a dividend paying stock and selling a Call and collecting the Premium. I've been running the so called Wheel by selling Calls above where I don't think the stock will go and by selling CSP below where I think it will be in the next 10 - 21 days and collecting premium and dividends along the way. It's not sexy but I'm avaeraging about 10% per 6 months. (I'm not sure how to calculate ROI% so I use Net Premium collected / Portfolio Value.) For example, I Sold to Open 10 different Calls & Puts with 4 to 11 DTE on MSFT, GD, MMM, AMZN, ORLY, NVDA, TQQQ for $1,450 in Premium and collected $480 in Dividends on Monday. I don't expect anything to be assigned but I'm OK if anything is assigned. They are not all going to be winners. I don't watch the market during the day and only check in after work. Good luck. \*Not ffinancial advice, don't listen to me, past performance is no guarantee o ffuture results.\* \*\*I'm not selling anything and I don't recommend buying courses. All the info is free at the library and CBOE\*\*

thefinancejedi

IVV - everyone is VOO heavy, but I use a lot of Blackrock funds, so I opted for IVV. PG - World ends, you all still buy toilet paper as you saw in 2020. JNJ - Same deal as PG. Still buy medicine. MMM - 3M makes everything around your life. From the tape you used to wrap the gifts you are in credit card debt over to special soaps in hospitals SGOV - Bonds. As risk free I can get without just putting it in high yield savings Honorable mention to SOFI, HOOD, and IBIT, whose growth has grown to near large position level.

greenpride32

I do swing trades on stocks I don't have high conviction on long term. They are good companies, which is why I'm confident they'll rebound. But they wouldn't be my within my top picks for holding long term. Some recent examples would be TGT CVS BUD MMM LULU NKE. But when you're talking about the likes of MSFT GOOGL NVDA AVGO, these are some of my "forever" stocks. I add more on big dips. But I would never risk missing out on big gap ups because I traded out and my timing didn't align with how the market played out. Also you must consider capital gains for selling out.

floo82

Yep I had MMM for a few years and was kinda amused to watch it go from 20% down from where I bought to green real quick

Elibroftw

Portfolio: 26% in Google, 4% Air Canada, everything else is < 4%. Google is that much because it's my benchmark for stocks to invest in. My target price is $200+ which yield a 26% annualized return, and since it's a mega-cap I'm comfortable holding that much. Regrets: Selling MMM, NET too soon and all of a quantum computing stock (I still think it's overvalued, but did not expect the market to go so crazy over it). Not buying HOOD last year when it was down 7% that one day. I should've bought META. SBUX was a good play just before the CEO announcement. Would've sold for a bag right after the pop. Some stupid fuck on reddit fear mongered over XP and I sold it even though it would've been a 60% return if I still owned it. I was fucking around in my FHSA and owned TQSM at one point. Absolutely dumb move on my part. Another regret is bying STLA instead of Volkswagon. I drive a Lexus, but Audi's are cool too. Losers: INTC (100% on me), XIFR (yield traps are real lol), HUMA (I believed reddit in thinking FDA approval would be a catalyst, and it turns out to be the opposite LOL). Biases: I still think XIFR (2%) and LAC (3%) will pay out in the long term (5+ years). I'm unsure about what the future holds for HUMA (1%).

UuuBetcha

Most of the answers I’m seeing amount to (paraphrasing): "sell each stock before the downturn, eat the CG tax, and move it into another stock with a solid 5-10 year outlook?" If I may rephrase my question: **Is there any way to assess the long-term viability of a company to the extent that it feels like a stock you can hold for 20-30 years?** For example, I know people who have had stocks in certain companies (TRV, IBM, MMM) for decades, having never sold them, even during downturns. So I’m curious if anyone has a way to assess that type of long-term viability.
