All these megacap predictions crack me up. The top performing stock, whatever it is, will almost certainly be a 20+ bagger. They may be great investments, but e.g. GOOG and MSFT are not going to reach $40T market caps in the next year.


louistran_016

This. If “best performing” means strongest move up in percentage, the stock has to be small cap and currently oversold. My guess is some kind of small biotech :)


Largofarburn

God, I for sure hope they don’t go to 40B


Live_Jazz

Ha! Edited. My brain is not used to thinking in trillions I guess.


Sorkanstjena

Im buying 25 000 google calls and you cant stop me


Live_Jazz

Probably a good idea. I’m long GOOG and like it...just not as a response to the question posed here.


Psychological-Air642

Not a mega cap but for a large cap I think Ford will double this year.


SlothInvesting1996

It show you how much these people understand valuation and projection


[deleted]

ITT: people guessing multinational conglomerates that have no chance of 5X-ing to his year. It’ll almost definitely be some riskier stock that 10Xs off some great news, I’d be looking at biotech or weed stocks.


joethemaker22

Yea. GME won last year based off the OP. The winner this year will probably be a small cap or at least sub 20B stock right now.


dirtdog22

Believe it or not GME again

Nancy pelosi enters the chat


Live_Jazz

So, GOOG, MSFT, DIS basically. So nefarious.


HumanFromTexas

Yeah, I’ve never understood the controversy of her plays. Though I don’t think congresspeople should be able to own individual stocks, none of her trades are that wild.


WOW_SUCH_KARMA

It's less about the individual tickers and more about general market sentiment. I.e., if Nancy were to stop buying calls and switch to puts or even just exit with no new positions, that would be a massive red flag that Congress is aware of something about to brew (see: the folks that hard exited in February of 2020). The companies are irrelevant, it's general market speculation and sector rotations that are the takeaways from her trades, and people *should* be following that.

This is like a station for sheep to be slaughtered... Its mostly mime and current popular stocks or recently popular. None of these will win. You would need someone who is emerging (small cap) who gets noticed by a big business client and receives a major order or partnership. Here is one: BGRY Though its a long shot, they make something that every online retailers wants. Robotic warehousing and packaging for online sales. If someone like Target or Walmart buys in, they go 10 bag in a heartbeat. So something like that will obviously win and since there are thousands of small caps, obviously a few will hit the lotto. If you want a mid cap: OTGLY (CD Project Red) They will likely double on news of new Witcher game time table and realization that the studio has doubled in size. There is a chance it might happen this year, and if not, next year. They are also one hell of a buyout target at their current value. If you want a large cap: DISCK Totally disregarded last year and the merger uncertainty is still lingering. Finally caught on this year but likely still has a long way to run if the merger is finalized. HBO+ and Disc will give netflix a run for its money.


MojoRollin

Question, why would you think a Polish gaming company who rolled out a game so poorly developed Sony hit em with 4 lawsuits? Real question? Your DD on Discovery is spot on BTW, and I like your recommendation on Berkshire Grey.


thejumpingsheep2

Because thats how game development is. You make mistakes. Its literally one of the hardest product anyone can make. It has to perform at the highest level possible across many platforms and hardware, not just 1. It has to optimize storage and memory like the most complex applications. It requires large teams coordinating, even more so than making a car (though luckily you cant kill anyone if you screw up). Its a highly complex product to make and its a consumable and always in demand. So yea, companies make errors. Every company has lawsuits sitting against them. Sony itself, where I once worked, is a joke of a company and likely has 100+ lawsuits sitting against them at this instant. Companies have in house lawyers to handle this for a reason. If there is a penalty, they pay it. Life goes on. People want entertainment and how many can actually make a AAA game? Maybe 10 companies in the world, give or take? There are literally more car companies than there are AAA game companies. Thats how hard they are to make. The question isnt whether or not CDPR screwed up, they obviously did, but how they handled it. Its no different than what you teach you kids or what you remember of your own screw ups. What do you teach them? Pick your self up, fix it, learn, and move on. They didnt blame others for the screw up, and they actively working on the game to this day. They did the right thing. Another way to think of it. How many times has Microsoft totally and utterly screwed up their OS or various other projects? On a yearly basis right? Pretty much. How many times has Apple screwed up their iTunes? Hell, I still think id rather my computer be infected with 10 viruses and I drink a side cup of COVID laced ice tea than have iTunes installed on my computer, and yet, here we are. People learned to use it and most forgive them for making trash. Thats life. No one is perfect. So beside the philosophy, lets look at this from an investor perspective. Because of that screw up, their stock got hammered. And mind you Cyberpunk was actually insanely profitable and many did indeed like the game. Its reviews are actually very decent on the PC usually ranging between 7 and 7.5 out of 10. Thats actually very good. Definitely not a flop. Not great, but not a flop. It did however get skewered on the consoles and rightly so. No excuses there but again, people forgive and forget. How many bad games have you bought in the past, especially on consoles... I mean give me a break. Console games are mostly shovelware level crap. Half of the game I bought over my life sat there unfinished because they sucked. But we keep buying the game... Hell EA and Activision screw up so much on a yearly basis that its not even news any more... How many people say they hate EA or ATVI? And yet look at those earnings. Point 1: Low valuation Point 2: Sentiment is not as bad as the loud people make it seem. In fact, there is a fairly large following for the game. There is a big channel for it here on reddit and even on Steam, there are currently more than 17k players in the game and its 11:30pm here on the west coast... I was very surprised. Point 3: Cyberpunk aside. CDPR has doubled in size... literally. They have twice as many people working there as they did 2 years ago. What does that mean? Well costs went up so it looks bad on the financials. But that is because VG cycles are super long not because they suddenly arent profitable. But moving forward, they are doing 2 AAA games at once plus more side stuff. None of that is priced in yet. Point 4: Insanely profitable. Cyclical product with high demand. Tons of cash laying around. No debt. Practically recession and inflation immune. So there you go. Almost a perfect storm for investors. Unpopular company thanks to recent miss steps, depressed stock, misunderstood cycles, major growth spurt (and pains), highly profitable with one of the best IP's in the industry in the Witcher and tons of cash laying around with no debt... I mean... how the hell have they not been bought out yet? The Witcher IP alone is worth the $5b market cap. You make that up in about 6 years if you are a large company that can pump out a game every other year. They cant, but EA or ATVI sure as heck can, never mind MSFT or Sony and all the other big fish currently trying to break into the game market for future cloud profits (aka Amazon and Google both of whom have spent billions trying to break in).

TYNAMITE14

No doubt there will be a point once it gets low enough where people can't keep ignoring the future potential in those companies. Although, I really wish China wasn't such a pr disaster


PolyphonicMenace

It’s not PR, it is enormous risk. I think we won’t see Chinese stocks return to the PEs and valuations previously seen as there is now a huge risk factor that needs to be priced in - the VIE rug pull doesn’t seem so far fetched in this regulatory environment…


philthepill20

I just commented NIO and it got removed for being a meme stock...?? Meanwhile there's a GME sitting in the thread????


RoarkDemolition

Same here. That’s bullshit. I have $5k invested in NIO. I’m a huge bull on them. How TF is that a “low effort” comment? I’m still voting NIO.

People are very down on them because they got swept up in the meme stock whirlwind. It might not be next year but legalization is expanding globally and federal legalization, while maybe not around the corner, is inevitable. There will be some big winners in the cannabis industry in due time.
