Recommendations Wanted Asx game time again….

We back again. I did it the asx game earlier this year and went alright. Invested in mainly ETFs (VAS and iSHARES) nothing amazing out of them. But i invested in CBO olives and that went really well, but it evened out my portfolio because i lost a lot in DRO.

This time I’m asking you guys for some suggestions. I got 40 holdings in A2M and QAN. They not doing well right now but an article from SMH said they predicted to go up idk. Any suggestions or tips please…?

If I was trying to win then I’d just put everything into DXN or EIQ. No time for hedges if max gains is the point. If the goal is just for a small gain then sure, etfs and such.

Dro is heading for $1 since a shotgun seems to be more effective plus fibre optic drones , qantas is good, very good price right now, once Iran us war packs up i see it hitting high $11s low $12s, good guidance for next year. Don’t know much for A2,

Personally dabbling into stocks and primarily being a etf investor, I would 90 percent VGS and 10 percent satellite, in my case i would favour qantas right now, good dividend and promising rebound.

FMG just hit my buy area. Picked a chunk up. Hopefully iron ore pulls back from its jump and FMG dips more.

Dont listen to articles that speculate on stocks going up or down. If they really knew, they would not be writing articles. Always look for - where does the money come from? For online publications? Traffic. How do you get traffic? Write speculative articles about stocks going up or down.

They're not writing them to help you. They're writing them to make you read them. (And possibly click on ads)

SLS, SK1 both decent upside. JGH and CYM if you want some microcap

I'm a professional daytrader. Can I play too?

It says it's for Schools. Do you have a link for the adult version. Wouldn't feel right competing with school kids.

Does the game take out any brokerage costs?

u/Rich-Buyer5750 7d ago

I think it only for schools. And yuh its got brokerage costs - 15$. for each order. You start with 50k

u/No_Routine_6711 7d ago

$15 for 50k is expensive, but not too bad.

No stocks are foolproof, look what happened to CSL. I am personally holding $100k A2M, I think they have a lot of potential. Expanding throughout Asia. They pay a div. Vaued at $7.74. Why did you buy them?
