Shares fell 5% yesterday after a major shareholder sold a stake for over $1 billion. The price is still moving up and down, but in the long run it's going more sideways.

Do you invest in emerging markets? If so, what stocks or ETFs do you have in your portfolio?

It's great news, but I think the buybacks are much better than the dividends.

A month ago I was buying cheap $NVDA and now I'd rather save my money for the next drop.
