Oil look like a good idea. You know their price is going to goes up or at least back to normal rate when the panic is gone.
Another good idea to buy the transportation business.
The problem with good tech is that you don't know which company to choose. Some may be winner or some loser while the oil and transportation , you knows it will at least go back to normal rate.
In tech I will definitely invent into quantum computing or 5G. -
@mr-user for oil though I m worried about regulation. And well Exon seems to be getting sued all over the place.
What's transportation? Uber or like trains, shipping, airlines? I guess the last is true...ppl will start going on vacations again when this is over.
What is so good about 5G though. As far as in know it's just faster internet. Still need ISPs so should in just but telecoms? -
@M1sf3t You got to have faith. The whole world is going to be fine. There may be a lot of deaths but it's going to be fine in the end. I am not trying to trivialize the seriousness of the whole affair but everything is going to be fine.
Maybe you should research upon black death to get an idea of what to invent in. There were a lot of death in black death cases and what technology/company profit after the panic settle. -
@AlmondSauce I am quite sure that transportation business will go up. Their stock goes down just because of lock downs and nobody is traveling anywhere.
-
@AlmondSauce yes but if the company is making money or gauranteed to not go bust because it's an essential service or get bailed out. As an on-going business concern, if there price is fundamentally reasonable, you should buy. But yes can be sure what reasonable is now....
I usually just look at PE and debt + cash but yes guess didn't work to well more new tech... Just the big guys -
The market is crazy right now.
If you dont know what you're doing, and I mean as a professional trader, not a retail or amateur trader, you should probably stay out until things start making sense again.
Crypto is more volatile than usual, but more predictable than stocks. We've been making a killing there lately. -
@Root the market hasn't made sense ever since Trump took over I think... All those tax cuts probably driving the market up to the 30K...
Yes thought it would go down more but seems it hit some resistance for now.... So thought to just test the waters a bit, pick up some large cash cows that are impossible to fail... But yes 4% on $2,000 isn't much... -
@billgates The market has been great since Trump, but you're right it has been behaving a little differently. Less regulations, lower business tax, much more liquidity... different financial waters to navigate.

I think drone that can deliver heavy supply, remote patient monitoring systems, portable diagnostic tools will see increased demand.
I am quite interested in wearable health monitoring devices(no android watch or shitbit plz) that can supply patients with norepinephrine or beta blockers depending on health status. So basically, pic related but, no morphine.

@spongessuck source? Will it be real unlimited? I have mobile unlimited but they would throttle after the first 4gb.
-
@billgates you can already get 5g home internet through Verizon in some US areas. https://verizonwireless.com/5g/...
-
@spongessuck receiver on the outside and inside? Other than weather and having to drill a hole for the connecting cable...
That seems to scream weather damage and target for vandalism?
-
@spongessuck hmm 300MBPS for 70$.... And needs direct line of sight to a cell tower apparently...
I think FiOS was 1GBPS for $70-80... so i don't see who would want it... -
@billgates not trying to sell it, man. Seems like less hassle than a satellite dish, IMO, and I don't see anything about drilling holes or requiring line of sight to a tower.
And sure, many places are already set up for hard wire and it's faster and cheaper but that's not what I'm talking about. This is just the beginning. -
@spongessuck was in FAQs https://verizonwireless.com/support...
Sorta reminded me of some trading system that tried to cut down latency by transmitting orders via microwave but needed a clear like of sight between the office and the trading floor

If you want to invest now, I'd say pick any tech company somewhat affected by the current slump (or better, a mix of a few) but expected to rebound as soon as things normalize. My employer, for example, is worth about half of what it was almost a year ago, and I expect it to get back to a higher price point in the next 12 to 24 months, so now is probably a good time to buy stocks.
With stock market down, I want to get into some future tech trends cheap but which ones are good.... honestly don't think I can make much unless the prices jump 50-100%...
I see clean tech and 5g, but not really sure what 5g means. Not sure what the wow factor is...
Clean tech feels like we need to do it or we're screwed though I was also thinking about buying oil... But that's probably b not a good long term.
Crypto I don't think it doing to well and sorta goes against clean tech? So what else is there and thoughts?
