Bought 2000 shares of SVC will i get invited to shareholder meetings now? Im kind of a big deal.
Can someone give me some info about SVC looks like a buy but i dont know shit lol
No, they’re definitely long term high cap stocks. Like srfm, joby and archer aviation, avgo, pltr, tesla (I had a very good entry) SVC, MRNA, some Indian high cap stocks (great returns and new tax rules for foreign investors in usd it’s very good rn)
https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/z6SVC30Bus I pretty much called the top, should have went balls deep in Long dated puts
That’s because of the SVC bank run, it was an excuse for Fed to pump in stimulus during the hikes to balance it out. The ultra rich are rigging the game.
Good Job. Personally I would take half of it and buy a handful of high yield REITS from 12% to as high as 20% because I see SVC is 18% and PSEC is 15% and AGNC is 15% and UNIT is 15% and ORC is almost 20% and many other good ones to provide good yield and growth and good compounding quickly. In 3 years of compounding. 150k x 1.15 = 172500 x1.15=198375 x1.15=228131 x1.15=262350 x1.15=301703 x1.15=346959 x1.15=399002 x1.15=458853 x1.15=527681 x1.15=606833 x1.15=697858 x1.15=802537. Easy money not factoring in stock price growth which should do good after interest rate cuts start
I always thought it had to do with 7 trillions printed and 3 trillions for the banks after SVC failure. That is 10 trillions total.
Explaining on Reddit is he said she said. I don’t got time to write essays and soliloquies on what is essentially social media. And your right I want economics to follow fundamental economic laws so the children of America can have a prosperous future. Some of you are greedy souls with heads in the sand or even worse aware of the situation at hand trying to obfuscate the economic understanding of these not educated in it to keep your paper net worths inflated. Anyone that works in banking know that you borrow against your assets as your assets rise in value so a drop in valuation has a house of cards effects as one is borrowed against the other. Literally there are so many textbooks that were the gold standard decades past that say everything about our current way of doing business economically is ultimately a Ponzi scheme. We will never pay back our debts, only way we go into a giant war to avoid paying or we enslave the middle class through austerity. See Germany WW1 and 2. That’s the only way this goes 10-30 years in the future. Just like we have laws that should stop illegal immigration already in place but not being enforced. We have fundamental economic guidelines that were adopted for our banking system which are not being enforced. And what happened with svb shouldn’t have happened and what did happen was it opened up a new emergency mechanism that they could use at free will till the program was ended. Look into it, the mechanism has a loophole that allowed the banks to borrow against their treasuries at the values they bought at and not what they had on hand and some were using that to buy more treasuries further increasing their ability to borrow more. It’s not talked about. Because unless you do your own research they do not tell you how they screw you. And yes I’m making my money in the markets. It’s getting easier and easier every day cause the corruption is so blatant and you just copy the corrupt. But again I care about the future of Americas children! I’ll leave this for food for thought, if you think that the Svb bailout was so innocuous then why even create the new cash 💰 injection mechanism for banks to borrow more cash based on treasuries on the values they were bought at and not currently at? Why open up the mechanism to all banks and not just distressed ones? Why not put limits so healthy banks couldn’t dip in. There’s a reason and the reason is money. If you’re an elite your properties are north of 20 million. You have dozens. You need this inflated real estate game to keep going. All the elites in America are colluding together. It’s one big team. Money never lies. Always follow the money trail. Today why did the former Treasury of the United States of America bailout NYCB with his firm? Why is government finance positions just a revolving door to Wall Street? That too after NYCB made a deal with the feds to absorb SVC assets, on the day that Powell was suppose to testify to congress. If you thought I was talking conspiracy before I’ll give you a real one now. The prior is just facts. Dems want rate cuts so Biden becomes president. Powell and repubs want Trump obviously so they want to cut rates next year . They intentionally waited till today (Dems) to make the bank that absorbed SVC look like it was failing a year after the banking issue as Jerome was testifying to put pressure on him to lower rates. But trumps buddy Steve comes through with cash injection saving the day. Because they cannot lower rates this year if they want Biden to lose. Now this is conspiracy and my last post in this dialogue.
what did you decide? I'm considering only doing 350k because 350 \* 1.2 \* 1.2 = 504. This assumes market grows 20% each year for the next two years, and the 500k would all be covered under SIPC. This way no sleep is lost. They could not tell me anything about their additional insurance, which is capped at a billion cumulatively across all customers, which isn't going to be a lot per person if everyone is bringing in a 1m+ balance to get 1%. After SVC went bankrupt, I now want to be on the safe side. No point in wondering if everything we've worked for is going to dissapear just to get 1% on it, which is far less after taxes, but also can get it easy on 350k with little to no downside. At the end pay the 100$ fee to transfer out
Massive expansion of QE during the last few years. In Q4 2022 and Q1Q2 2023, we saw the SVC debacle and the "unlimited backstop".
\> Socialism for me, but not for thee. At least in this case, the bailout money for SVC came from a bankruptcy fund banks are required to pay into (DIF), so taxpayers weren't on the hook for this one.
Basically. SVC had billions in deposits and obviously won’t let cash sit in cash, so they loaded up on 10 year treasuries. Rates went up dramatically so their books still looked like they had all that money but in reality they couldn’t liquidate when customers wanted their money. Got an old fashion run on the bank. Instead of letting the massive customers eat their losses (since they weren’t covered in the event of a bank failure) the government opted to bail them out to “keep faith in the banking system” Socialism for me, but not for thee. I may not have the exact correct info but basically that’s what happened.
13 years during zirp and low interest rates. During credit loosening too. Yeah it’s been credit “Tightening” since 22 but not really see SVC bailout earlier this year. Your 13 years are highly suspect in the grand scheme of things and history.
flipped my shitty SVC position into 2k shares of DISH - flipping my XYLD to AMZY tomorrow. I don't think the cell phone for prime subscribers is the last play they'll make together.
flipped a shitty $15k position in SVC to this.. money machine go BRRRRRR!
No it will help the illusion of paying down the debt. What the market needs is serious behavioral corrections before it wrecks everything with its manipulation. High interest rates will do that, because humans and society are irrational overtime. But because of that we are stuck in a negative feedback loop where fed is bought out. And the media is framing the narrative for the masses. Remember it’s an election year coming up. And as you have proven with with your thesis most have a short term view of economics and don’t realize long term implications. It’s basic economics 101. Lowering interest rates only helps service the debt at current levels and only for short periods of time. Long term economics is a thing. It’s a behavioral science. Raising rates pushed the market to be rational, in turn helping them secure their future and think long term. Inflation affects stability in fundamental tenants such as housing and food. Two things out of control for most of America when it comes to inflation. That’s why even all that said fed will have to raise rates more otherwise you will have civil war and riots. But I got a feeling you don’t care, you have horses in the race. But you should because eventually recession and then rates will be lowered again with more quantitative easing. So your right gov and fed is just going to keep rates low to service the debt but they have to make it look like they are trying. A good example is the SVC bank failure a couple months ago. They let it fail so they could pump liquidity into the market via backdoor and market has been booming since. Not a coincidence, it was floundering prior. They had to do it cause they can’t let the big crash and the big pump via QE happen too soon. They need it to happen 1 year before the election so Biden can make it look like he is the reason they recovered when he does his QE. The only way this country will pay off its debt is through a giant bloody war with a superpower or by manipulating/enslaving other weaker nations with its power. And we might be running out of the latter.
SVC seems to be doing very well - I think it depends on what kind of commercial real estate - if you're housing worker drones in cubes you may have a bad time. Feeding the drones with mass produced science-food? Well aint nobody got time to chop veggies at home so that shit's doing just fine. Plays like SVC also get ahead of the inevitable robot cashier debacle too - still need a brick and mortar storefront to serve out of!
This New York garbage was touting the stock as little as a few months ago. Now he says it's done. This piece of garbage should have a warning label on all his picks just like cigarettes. When is he going to turn back his Twitter messaging back on so all the feedback for his great picks like SVC, Shopify, etc can be brought to his attention.
Buy Regional Bank ETF’s if you want to buy the dip so do take on a total loss if the bank gets taken over and delisted like SVC & FRC
Nah bruh. SVB was seized on Friday evening and over the weekend. Up to that, they had at least 48 hours to act on to prevent the collapse if they wanted to. Collapse happened because startups started withdrawing money because of rising interest rate, which prevented them to raise new cash via IPO. So they started burning through cash fast. When startups started burning through cash, SVC had to sell bond at huge loss to raise capital to offset initial cash withdrawals. Then Silvergate collapsed and rumors started flying about other regional banks. This started another wave of withdrawals. That was around Wed/Thursday before the Friday collapse. So it didn't happen overnight bruh. Collapse was quick. But if Treasury did something about the initial bank collapses, including Silvergate, the second wave of withdrawals could have been prevented
>At least three large banks have submitted bids to buy all or part of First Republic. Among those that have put in offers are JPMorgan Chase, PNC and Citizens - Financial Times Damn bruh, Citizen got a deal on SVC and now wants another deal on FRC from FDIC
They already did with SVC. When Citizen bought them, any losses over $5 billion will be borne by FDIC
Check at a credit union Make sure it’s not the next SVC or FRC
They aren't letting the companies and individuals with deposits in excess of the insured $250K 'fail' though - they did not let the normal process (which I've explained to you three times) play out. Those companies simply had to wait for SVC assets to be sold to get their uninsured deposits back, but due to the low availability of cash reserves, were operating in risky positions themselves and couldn't wait. This is what happens during a recession but we apparently don't want 'economic downturn' to actually happen when it's rapid. This had 'hard landing' written all over it, was a desired outcome of the fed's interest rate hikes, but they stepped in to prevent it from happening because small and medium companies in tech were going to suffer. Because why, more bank runs? No one was going to collapse JP morgan, only the banks who were exposed to risk. Would it have been a bigger problem? Yes. Would people lose jobs and companies fail? Yes. Oh well, that's capitalism. Until it isn't anymore. It's a system of picking winners and losers, and individuals with low wealth never get anything close to this.
The Dot com bubble burst lasted 2 years. The GFC lasted through most of 2008. Downturns happens over weeks, months, and years. We are barely starting to see "blood in the street" with the failure of SVC. This thing has just started and it will be interspersed with periods of normalcy.
Barney Frank is on the board of SVC. These people are laughing at us
Yo be clear, SVC wasn't exactly being "risky" here. They had their assets tied up if fucking treasury bonds, basically the least risky investment you can possibly make.
I have NO doubt SVB collapse was orchestrated by VCs. The treasure bond shit was not the real problem as other banks are just as bad, but VCs know that SVC was balls deep in startup world so its an easy "out" for them and then play victim to high interest. Lets be real. Banks KNOW rates are increasing so to think banks werent prepared is not the truth. Change my mind bitch.
>I’m saying it’s a fools errand to separate the two. Apparently SVC has been paying fees to insure up to $250k and now everyone just is fully insured without paying a premium, what a world we live in! They're not. This is a repo facility, fed will only take treasuries and high quality MBS as collateral.
Except for the fact SVC has only paid the premium to insure the $250k max… imagine wrecking your $2500 Honda civic and the insurance company paying for you to get a $55,000 new car, by raising everyone else’s premiums…. Guess you’re not thinking to well.
I’m saying it’s a fools errand to separate the two. Apparently SVC has been paying fees to insure up to $250k and now everyone just is fully insured without paying a premium, what a world we live in! Now to be fair when the $250k limit was passed adjusted for inflation is $5.7 million, yet somehow Roku with $440 million in a checking account is going to be covered. Woof
Any big bank would love the power over the start-up world that SVC had. Any pissed off VC firm could do something like this, the benefit is knowing the company that “wronged” you for whatever reason is going out of business. People are spiteful as fuck, I don’t see it out of the question.
So SVC, First Republic, and now Signature Bank
People weren't literally in line at SVC taking out their 15 million in cash like Marty Byrd in Ozark. They were wiring money out of their accounts to major banks. Quite frankly, the bank notified customers, mostly venture capital crowd they were going to need money, and they immediately bailed on the bank that's helped finance their risky startups for 20 years. Really says a lot about the crowd, let's pull out our money as fast as possible until the FDIC Takes over, and then demand uncle sam covers all our money because we were too greedy to help sure up the bank we are invested in, Logic, let me take their 250k and walk, forget the silicon valley crowd
I'll try to explained it in a short version with under 85 words: SVC invested the clients' money in long-dated Treasury bonds and mortgage bonds with strong returns during periods of low interest rate. But existing bonds held by SVB became less valuable when the Fed raises the interest rate. SVB had to sell the bonds at a discount which caused a loss of 1.8 billion. Subsequently, SVB suddenly issued new common and convertible preferred shares to raise additional 2.25 billion which caused panic and sell off with the Fed took over control of SVB.

Terrible investment choices caused this SVC completely forgot about interest rate risk.
SVC was a canary in the coal mine for something, and I am not smart enough to figure it out. Generational wealth can be made for someone who does and front runs the play. But it is sure as hell not companies with accounts/exposure.
But SVC had nearly 500 billion.
Can you explain how banks mark to market their investments? To my understanding, bonds losing value is less about real losses, since they're holding to maturity, and more about opportunity cost. So the main issue is the value of collateral diminishing. Demand for intrabank funding must have increased, but hasn't been a problem because rate hikes were announced early and financial institutions had time to prepare. But SVC (and silvergate?) failing is definitely going to put more pressure on intrabank funds and it could cause panic. The result would be a credit squeeze seizing the machine. Is this the general idea? Basically, if financial institutions get scared and hold their money tight, we're looking at another financial crisis. If they're calm and rational, some other country will go bust first and foreign investment and asset appreciation will probably save us?
No wonder SVC is going under.. they dont even let you open a checking account online. I was going to transfer $30 to a new account in order to save the financial system but doesn't seem like they want my money 
There is a bank run on SVC as we speak, and depositors are having problems getting their money out. Note: SVC has 212 billion in assets--it is a big bank If the FDIC has to step in tomorrow morning, what is going to happen here?

This analysis is based on the current option open interest. With that option open interest, it calculates portfolio-level greeks--notably Delta and Gamma. More importantly, once the portfolio level greeks are established, I can now simulate the change in greeks at different price points. From there, I can find the price levels where portfolio-level gamma is the highest, and the portfolio-level delta is close to 0. For some tickers, the underlying price reacts strongly off of delta neutral, gamma max, and sometimes both. It's the reaction off of these price levels in the past that is being used to drive trading signals. The plays and target entry prices given are calculated using a binomial option pricing model that reflect the expected size and duration of the reaction from gamma max or delta neutral. A lot of these plays are profitable by underlying moves in stock. The best plays benefit from the directional move as well as the increase in IV. # Notes - Something to give you a new wrinkle * If the price has moved past the entry price, exercise caution. Something changed between the time these plays were generated and market open. * Look to sell half your position on a double, and freeroll the rest to exit at your discretion. * I tend to risk up to 1% of my total capital on any trades I take. If my conviction is lower, I'll only allocate 0.5% or even 0.25% of my capital to the trade, and dollar cost average in. * The trades were calculated before market open, and so are based on information up to yesterday. Keep that in mind when deciding to enter well after the fact. # FAQ - Because others have already asked. * These plays are mostly puts. Are you a gay bear? * No. It so happens that the companies have had some recent run-up which implies they are overextended. These trades are primarily some form of mean-reversion either toward or away from an important price level. * Are you entering all these plays? * No. There have been a dearth of plays in the WSB morning talks, and so I opened up my bag of tools slightly wider to point out more plays with a probable edge to help lead apes to more gain porn. Go through this curated list of plays, pick the ones you like based on whatever additional analysis you use, and get that gain porn.

This article pretty much captures why I don't have an SCV tilt. Is the SCV premium real? Probably. SCV stocks are actually riskier after all. There's some evidence that the risk adjusted return of SCV stocks is also better, though that seems less certain. Also, relative to the amount of data we have, the SCV premium is actually a pretty small effect. I think it's real, but I wouldn't be shocked if it turned out not to be. Will the SCV premium persist in the future? Again, probably, though I suspect with the relatively recent broad awareness of it, it's not going to be as large as it was. In the near term, SCV stocks may even be over-valued. On the flip side, I know for a fact that an SCV tilt increases expense ratios, reduces effective portfolio diversification, and is actually more risky. When you weigh it all, adjust for risk, and then adjust for uncertainty, and then adjusting for the actual costs... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm not going to argue that people choosing an SVC tilt are making a mistake, but I'm sticking to market-cap weights!
Subversive Capital (SVC) merged into TPCO Holding (GRAMF), weed related company, Jay Z on the executive team... another disaster

First of all there is subreddit dedicated to Europe ETF market which is quite different (taxes, options, fees etc) from US market: [https://www.reddit.com/r/ETFs\_Europe/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ETFs_Europe/) Now, not knowing which country You live it's difficult to say. First of all make sure You are not missing Your retirement account with tax exemptions, most European countries have some tax preferences for retirement savings/plans (if that is Your goal). Accumulating ETFs reinvest all dividens, so You will not worry with a) taxes b) reinvesting them. For European market best place to check and compare ETFs is: [https://justetf.com/en/](https://justetf.com/en/) SVC? You mean Small Cap Value? [https://justetf.com/en/find-etf.html?assetClass=class-equity&equityStrategy=Small+Cap](https://justetf.com/en/find-etf.html?assetClass=class-equity&equityStrategy=Small+Cap) Be careful though, Ben made it clear, that for beginners One single ETF would probably be better, especially if You are picking one class of assets from his 5 factor portfolio.
So 8 employees made 11 million in revenue? Wow what a crew. It’s obvious you did no research. I really don’t care what you think! I share facts only and if others want to follow you, so be it. Hell of a payroll for those 8 employees. Those 26 executives must work for peanuts. And the recent acquisition SVC must have no employees also. Dam they are awesome! This is hilarious! Got to document this for future reference!
Their annual report has to be audited. Their last audited annual report (it's all about SGSI, nothing about HWNI and SVC) was released on April 17, 2021 that you can access on SEC website, but if you are looking for the report that will show the whole business \[SGSI+HWNI+SVC\], the next one will be released by April 2022.

I'm probably a bit to vested in REITs to be honest. But I like the stability and the dividend. I also had a bunch of money available when the march 2020 dip happened and prices were attractive . . . BDN, BNL, CLDT, HST, KIM, MPW, OHI, STAG, SVC, WPC.
Only the sexy meme ones. I'll share the rest in case you wanna buy those too $PSFE $OWL $ZEV $MLCO $SABR $LOCO $SVC $FISV $BNY $LUV Feel free to join the party on any one of them. \#honesty 
Not pennies but I picked up HT ($10.24), SVC($12.43), WPG($5.05) to try and capture some recovery.
Just a little heads up here, SVC's extended stay hotel portfolio is now running at \*over 70%\* occupancy, a huge improvement over April (66% occupancy) or Q1 (54% occupancy). April turned EBITDA positive for the entire hotel group, as the bounce-back continues SVC will prove to be very undervalued at this level. Another interesting one is DHC, which IMO is an easy double from today's share price as their senior housing portfolio rebounds, particularly given the long-term favorable demographic tailwinds and curtailment of new senior housing supply.
Yes im not moving on SVC until it gets over 20 or you decide to get out early!
Appreciate that. Hope you still had your shares going into today. My next play is ULCC - that's probably gonna take a bit longer than SVC did but should be around 25 in 2 or 3 months if I'm right.
As usual, made a nearly perfect call but doubted myself at the last moment. Been holding SVC 10C + 12.5C for months and have been buying any dips. Exit target was $14.50. Instead paperhanded them at $12.80 today because 11 DTE...left $1700 on the table. Always so right...but always so wrong...
SVC going bananas...an oldie but a goodie. COVID over = hospitality + travel rocketing.
I’ve been watching SVC. I think the beaten down reits could be the next sector rotation
Bull here. I agree with you on the "travel" type stock, except airline. I am involved in the industry. Hotel occupancy rates tie into all of these areas you discuss and those that hung on and remained (kind of) open will crush it this summer. They have nowhere to go but up. The stats reported and what I actually see are vastly different. Reported occupancy rates overall hovered around 40% last year. Actually likely around 15%. Much lower for high-end properties. Now reporting an upswing to 50%+ but they are closer to 80% and we are beginning to see properties selling out over weekends. Haven't seen that since before March 2020. Folks are staying at the economy (Quality, La Quinta, etc.) and mid-level properties (Hilton-Hampton, Hilton Garden, Marriott-Fairfield, Towneplace, etc.). The high end travel market will take longer to recover. INN, RLJ, CLDT, APLE, SVC (tied into hotel, food, gas), HST (slightly on the higher end), STKS (restaurants). I also have AHT. It's a wildcard but inexpensive. Under $3 now but will be either worth $15 or pennies.
Why is SVC doing poorly compared to its industry peers?
i think you're looking at the wrong stock man. SVC has been around for many years
I actually bought MAC under 10 way back when and sold it at 20 on that huge spike. I liked it for the short squeeze thesis but that came and went already. It’s an interesting idea and I can see it going higher but imo there are less risky plays with similar if not more upside (like SVC).
Quite the rarely mentioned ticker. Thier $TA holdings is a bright spot and held them up through COVID. I like SVC. No position in there anymore, but I think the case is solid here. They’re not going bankrupt and it’s only up from here IMO. I don’t think you get $25, but rather $20 or so.
I'll dabble. Appreciate the DD. Any thoughts on $EPR? I own some. Similar to $SVC, lots of upside relative to PRE-COVID levels, dividend currently suspended, but with the grand reopening of entertainment and people itching to get out, seems like a similar play.
SVC/Sonesta is into suburban extended stay hotels, which actually benefit from remote work as they are more geared towards the work from home environment. They are not as exposed to traditional business travel as other hotels that have outperformed it 40-50%+ (look at PK for example). I recommend reading the SVC earnings call transcripts for more info on this.
I have no perspective anymore. Used to be a safe investor. Take my 7-10% a year in ETFs or whatever. Started playing with options. Lost 100% of my first play immediately on NFLX earnings at the start of COVID...0 idea what IV crush was. OK lesson learned. Then got a 10x on SVC. Then a 20x on BB. Then 100x on GME. Also went to 0 on half a dozen others (fuck you especially AMD). All in a year. I don't really know what is real anymore. A 20% gain used to be exciting, but now my brain literally can't interpret if 75% or 2x or 5x is even "good". I just stare at the blinking numbers on the screen...sometimes I hit buttons and make or lose money. Are these kinds of gains "normal"? Do people usually get multiple 300%+ plays a year? Is 20x a common thing? Or all just blind dumb reptile brain luck that will never happen again?

Alright bois, just wondering if you guys have thoughts on SVC. I’ve been looking into it and I bought 25 contracts. News is hard to find but I do have a small basis here, it’s been on a decent down trend after hitting ath’s. I believe it has found it’s bottom in the upper $11 range (could drop a little bit more). Also it has quite large institutional holdings and the price has dropped to a little bit above their average cost per share. Last thing is the calls are cheap for the good ole low risk high reward scenario. Look into it if you want, idc. (i Am NoT a FiNaNcIaL aDvIsOr)

Bought puts on the Corona Virus sell off. Then built my bank roll as DAL, Fun, SIX crashed. Then bought calls and a few leaps on companies that I knew would come back. (Dell, Microsoft, SVC etc.) Then I got greedy thinking I knew I was doing and started losing like a MFers. So I then started to actually pay attention, study, and most importantly be patient. By patience, I stopped FOMO-I got into shit and entered after sell offs and sold on the upswings. I left a lot on the table selling early. But a profit is a profit. Biggest win was buying calls on AMC in Dec. with a March & June expire date because I actually liked the stock. Wish I would have got some GME as I was tracking /u/DeepFuckingValue and saw and like his logic. But stayed my path. None of this is financial advice and Results may vary, a lot. There were many swings were I almost quit.
I actually only had “EVBG until I joined WSB. I bought it back in Jan 2018. Forgot about it and when I heard about WSB and COVID I checked my account and my EVBG was up like 300% so I sold it and bought puts. Then sold the puts and bought calls in April 2020. Then it was bipolar roller coaster. Every thing from DAL, ‘SVC, early on *FUV & *FCEL’, and ‘NIO. Then DKNG and got lucky in AMC (bought in November 2020). All because of this sub. Thank you for those that paved the way! 🙏
I'm looking at AHT, but still learning how to do proper DD on fundamentals. I looked at their site, and their hotels are quality brands in all the major cities. They look like they are beating expected eps. The thing is all of the other hotel REITs I've looked at have bounced back quite a bit (CLDT, XHR, SHO, RLJ, PEB, HST, SVC, APLE). What is keeping AHT low?
Yo anybody looking at SVC? https://www.hotelmanagement.net/transactions/terminating-marriott-deals-svc-plans-further-sonesta-growth
Okay, serious answer. Longtime investor, since early 1990's. Started with monthly investments in SPY, VFIAX, QQQ, other Fidelity mutual funds offered through work 401k. Early 2000's bought into FAANG's and others. Saw great returns in them, as expected. Pretty much ignored my investments other than 1 or 2 times/year when making IRA contributions and if I thought about it. With market crash in 2020, plus older children interested in markets, I began investing/trading stocks which I thought would bounce back from lows, like MAR, HT, SVC, XOM, AAL, CCL. Also, began swing trading SPY & QQQ options, with moderate success. Learned more about wheeling and options strategy. Recently began selling small portions of FAANG stocks, because they were overweighted in my portfolio, and because I don't think they will go 10x+ like they did in the 2000's. Just too big, not because they are badly run. Better to find the new FAANG stocks, which could be EV's, weed, health care, China stocks, etc. All money is staying in my investment accounts, I have other sources of income for day-to-day living, but will eventually use this money for kids' weddings, retirement home, life in retirement, unborn grandkids' college funds, etc. Generational wealth.
Rent collecting REITs like hotels, self storage, do well during inflation. But "SVC's properties are primarily operated under long-term management or lease agreements." Commercial leases generally have inflation clauses so maybe they're protected. If not, those locked in prices will be bargin prices
SVC cut their dividend on 3/30/2020. Probably a wise move because of the pandemic. https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NASDAQ/SVC/dividend/ SVC is owned primarily by institutions. Blackrock etc. - at one point they had about 80% of ownership. https://fintel.io/so/us/svc https://money.cnn.com/quote/shareholders/shareholders.html?symb=HPT&subView=institutional Based on this info and the buy indicator that the Ichimoku Chart gave on 2/11 I'd say this is a relatively safe bet. https://imgur.com/l5RtuIF I wouldn't plan on it rocketing to the moon, but steady gains are gains. I wouldn't be surprised if they raised their dividend back up in the future which would probably bring back an influx of investors.
