Oof, I've got my passion fruit tea out and I'm ready to go. Do not mess with Charlie when he has his passion fruit. Okay, so after another week that saw the S P 500 break into new all-time highs as Cnbc and Goldman Sachs reports that investors are once again increasing their risk appetite in closing out shorts. As Mr.

Money Printer Powell himself says, the economy is about to grow much quicker due to vaccinations and fiscal support as Bitcoin glorious Bitcoin hovers into that sixty thousand dollar range over the weekend. And of course, as dogs run around without leashes. Well, with all of this, especially the dogs running around without leashes, you may be asking just what are the top three stocks for this week? Charlie. Well, of course folks in this video, we must talk about the top three stocks for this week.

But first, I want to go ahead and recap some of our plays from last week. Okay, so last week we talked about Crwd Crowd Strike. This was our cyber security play and it continued its rally last week. Look folks, I know these runs aren't big and flashy, but these are some of the biggest plays for stabilizing your trading.

Look folks, technology is simply going to be taking over more and more of our lives, so you best be betting that we need some damn security. With crowdstrike, we can profit off it. Okay, next folks, Mara. Lovely Mara.

Bitcoin Miner. Mara had a nice cool off from all-time highs. And like I said earlier, Bitcoin had a nice bounce over the weekend, holding above 60 000 fairly nicely, and that's despite it having that as a resistance level for quite a long time. And that does suggest that Mara may have a good start to the week, but Bitcoin as a whole folks has been uncomfortably stable.

Despite it having a history of either trending up rapidly or down trending rapidly. it's been in the same general area basically since early March. That's likely because of institutional adoptions and overall trust in Bitcoin growing higher, creating a strong resiliency. And I think that in the short term it's a bit of a wash where Bitcoin's going to go.

You could definitely see another buying opportunity with another dip in the next couple of weeks, but we could also see some more institutions adopt Bitcoin and get more rallying. Just impossible to say. At this point, Bitcoin is basically doing something that we've never seen it do before be stable. Really difficult to see when that trend is going to break in which way that's going to be, but over the long term I expect Bitcoin to really do well.

and with that, I would look at any dip in Bitcoin, Miner Mara, or in Bitcoin itself as a huge buying opportunity. Okay, what else do we have to talk about? Pretty much recapped a lot on Friday, but the other one I guess we should talk about is Chargepoint. So Chargepoint. Last week we said if we can get this under 25, this would be a good time to snap it up, especially since the Biden Infrastructure program would be a potential windfall for Ev charging stations.

But unfortunately we just didn't get that buying opportunity. However, we are getting pretty close and if this hit 25 bucks or under this week, I see that as a pretty damn good deal. Okay folks, so that is it with the recaps. Now it's time to get to work and the only thing I ask of you in return is that you go and drink a little bit of tea and then go and hit that ravishing like button And also don't forget to subscribe.

Also, quick plug if you're wondering what broker, what Broker Charlie to trade these stocks on. Well, we always like to send new traders over to Weeble. They have extremely useful scanning tools such as pre-market and after hours runners, upcoming earnings and ipos, as well as some more tools that just frankly make trading easier.

Okay, so let's get to work. So First Ride Aid. So for context, this was one of our plays last year. It got overbeaten down on earnings to ten dollars.

We said that that was likely going to be a huge overreaction. We got made fun of for a few weeks because it went down more, but then it ended up going all the way back to 32 bucks. Lots of folks locked in profits on the way up and had a damn great play, but now it is many months later and it's trading back at twenty dollars. But the reason that Rite Aid is relevant right now is because they have earnings coming out on Thursday.

and just two weeks ago, they reported bleak Q4 data due to supply chain issues caused by unfavorable weather bad sales due to the fact that Covent 19 safety measures have also led to a reduction of cough, cold, and flu cases and that's caused them to not be so hot. But here's the thing. Rite Aid has been selected as a provider of the coveted vaccines in a majority of states across the Us. They've also been gaining revenue from a rise in pharmacy sales, robust online performance, and the expansion of services to their customers.

which is important because of course, Rite Aid has a reputation of being old school. But here's the thing. I hated Rite Aid pre-pandemic but the pandemic has forced it to adapt to 21st century technology in order to survive at home delivery Telehealth. Zero cost for deliveries, all things that Rydate needs to push forward in 2021 and beyond.

and despite cold and flu sales being pretty damn bad in Fall 2020, that's just because of covet prevention measures. As the reopening continues and Covet 19 safety measures go down dramatically, people stop wearing masks, people stop washing their hands. which you should still wash your hands folks. But once all these safety measures go away, well then we're going to see a lot of traditional cold and flu cases start booming again.

And that means that that revenue stream for Ride It is going to come booming back. And not to mention that those cold and flu products happen to be the biggest cash cows for Rite Aid in the first place. And while Covet has provided its own opportunities for stores like Rite Aid, it also has drastically elevated expenses for Rite Aid so not exactly something that riding needs to have. And as we leave the pandemic, people are going to be going to Rite Aid getting their vaccines and they're going to be reminded that hey, Rydeat is still a player for your health care needs.

That being said, do I like it at 20 bucks? Well, I don't love it. In fact, the best outcome that I want this week is Rydee getting beat down a little bit more. Maybe their earnings are bad and we get it be down to 18, Maybe 17. That would be the ideal entry point.

Am I being picky? Am I being cheap? Yeah, I'm being a little bit picky, but I want this cheap folks. A huge component of being a good trader is just not overpaying for things. Don't be too impatient folks. Okay, next the stock that you probably haven't heard of before Pltr.

So on April 14th, which is this Wednesday, Palantir will be doing their doubleclick demo event. This will showcase how their platform is used across 40 different industries and is the first big publicity date for Palantir in months. Which is important because nothing has really managed to budge their share price in a while now. Of course, a big determiner of whether this actually has an effect on Palantir share price is whether it gets media coverage.

In the past, the media hasn't wanted to cover Pltr if the analysts start speculating and putting out articles and media pieces, giving exposure to how Pltr is working. With so many different types of companies, you can expect a lot more volume to flow to the stock. and we've seen that happen before. But to me of course the question isn't so much is Pltr valuable, but rather what is it that's going to make the rest of the market take note that it is indeed valuable, and doubleclick can very well serve that purpose.

If you've established yourself in this play, I would be patient. If you aren't already in it, there's a chance that this is the last opportunity you have to get in in the below 25 range. If you want to see my complete breakdown of Pltr and the opportunity we have this week, go ahead and watch my Palantir video. I'll link to that below.

Okay, next Baba Babago Sheep. Now this has been an incredibly popular play of ours in the past. We've had this as a dip buy on the channel numerous times and it's given so many opportunities to ride out its uptrends and this has historically been one of our most popular place to dip by. However, it's been undervalued for months.

This time, they've been dealing with China monopoly crackdowns and the tech sell-off in February just made it much worse. For weeks and really months, investors have been discouraged from buying baba pending the conclusion of the Chinese crackdown, but now we have finally had a conclusion, so that's a good step. Just a bit ago, they announced that China has finally concluded that they will be finding them this amount for anti-monopoly activity. This is amongst China's crackdown on a lot of big tech companies.

However, again, don't forget that Alibaba was kept down specifically because people were scared. They're scared of what China was going to do to them, and over the next couple of days you are going to hear how this fine is going to destroy Alibaba. as of course, the media tries to get their clicks. Then after that, people are going to start realizing that this fine is the equivalent of four percent of Alibaba's sales in China alone in 2019, or less than one percent of its market cap.

In fact, Alibaba has dropped over 30 percent over fears of a crackdown, a crackdown, that resulted in a fine? that's less than one percent of the market cap. And yes, obviously, the fact that Alibaba can't expand into a lot of other sectors is also a negative thing. But still, Baba's going to follow the new guidelines. and while I'm not a fan of Chinese policies or the Chinese government, it is a huge mistake to discount plays in such a big economy.

Alibaba is the second largest company by market cap in China, and China is the second largest economy in the world with a market cap of 20.6 trillion estimated in 2024., just a bit short of the Us's 25.3 trillion in 2024.. Now would I want to have over exposure to Chinese place? Absolutely not. But there's a lot of opportunity in international markets and I want to take advantage. Abugashi Baba has delivered us many wins in the past and will continue to deliver us wins anyways.
