40% were really solid. But now I would rather short it again. Rivian will surely benefit from this, but they still need to kick their production and business up a notch.
INCREASE IN DIVIDENDS FOR COMPANIES
Realty Income $O
- Increased the monthly dividend from $0.2625 to $0.2630.
- Represents a 5.9% yield.
Target $TGT
- Increased the dividend by 1.8% to $1.12.
- Extends its streak of dividend increases to 53 years.
FedEx $FDX

Yees, I'm just happy with $O. I have this stock in my portfolio. But dividend increases at most companies show their strength, so great at all of them.
I'd rather go away with PayPal. I remember buying over $50 and then selling quickly :)
Hello investors, what are your favorites from the AI sector? (and lesser known ones.)
All I can sayabout $NVDA's ride is wow.
- Nvidia has seen a more than nine-fold increase in value since the end of 2022.
- Nvidia has overtaken Microsoft to become the most valuable public company in the world.
- In early June, Nvidia crossed the $3 trillion market capitalization threshold, joining an elite club that includes Microsoft and Apple.
I somehow keep forgetting about this company, but I'm definitely not buying now😁
What do you think about the current performance of$ORCL?
- The deal with OpenAi and the acquisition of 30 AI contracts worth $12.5 billion.
- Planned partnerships with competitors such as Google and Microsoft.
For me, this could have a very high quality impact on the development of this company. What do you think?
I like the collaborations very much and the company is obviously doing well, but the stock is already expensive for me.
Hi investors, I was wondering today what IPO market are you following or investing in?
Usually when there is an interesting IPO, I like to look and I like to watch it in the weeks that follow, but I have not invested in any IPOs and I do not plan to do so in the future.

So we'll see, thanks for the info, I'll keep an eye on it. Do you believe they will lower interest rates this year?
Hello investors, what do you think about the current commodity trend? For example, do you have commodities ranked in your portfolios?
I don't trade commodities. Occasionally I look at oil, but otherwise not much. But I have noticed a rise in sugar and things like that :)

That's not very nice. I bought a Colt for the first time last week, so I'm going to leave it there for now and see what it did in a few months. Overall I see potential there and even though the hype has died down as Christopher writes, I still think their stock will continue to rise.
The company is trying to push its products to make them as convenient as possible for customers, but the EU is interfering again. And I don't want to keep defending Apple, it bothers me with everyone.
