Oh, Neo is telling us to get ready for Neo Day. This is going to be exciting, but Neo had a very flamboyant week opening strong in the beginning of the week, short sell-off on Wednesday, and then a complete bounce back. and I got a lot of messages from folks who are planning to hold to Neoday but then sold out here in a panic, which is why I stress so hard that if you don't really believe in Neo's long-term value, you shouldn't be randomly holding it. You could have locked in profits days earlier at validation instead of panicking during the downtrend.

If you are a believer in Neo, on the other hand, then it makes sense to hold through Dips because you believe that it's gonna go to a higher valuation in the long term, but being in a position when you're not clear of your intentions is really a recipe for disaster. If you are unsure of what you're doing, then you're going to be the first to panic and get burnt on these down days at the end of the day. No one should be surprised that stocks go both up and down. But of course you know My personal analysis is that Neo is worth holding through Dips because of the inherent value, and that again, dips our buying opportunities.

But anyways, we are going to be talking about my new projections for Neo right before Neo Day. and of course we have some important new Neo news to cover as well. New Neo News? Try saying that one. But first, a quick update: Have you guys been watching Tesla? Just an insane rally As an eternal Tesla Bull? Even I thought Tesla was going to cool off after the S P 500 inclusion.

But here we are. This makes Ceo Elon Musk the richest person in the world, passing even Jeff Bezos or as Jeff's ex-wife calls him, Jeff Bozos. But the thing that I love about Elon Musk is that he's clearly not somebody that does it for the money. This is someone that's been obsessed with the consumer and obsessed with stepping humanity up to the next level.

and as a result, capital has flock to him. To me, Euan really represents this idea that if you have a good idea, a work ethic, and a genuine interest in providing value to other people in society, the market can and often will reward that. As a dirty economics nerd, it always makes me feel sad when people say that wanting to make a profit or wanting to be good in business makes you greedy or it just is a bad thing. But I think that Elon Musk highlights this idea that by helping other people and helping society, we can also help ourselves.

And in the case of Elon Musk, we could use those profits to further reinvest them into society and create even more value. But the reason that I'm saying this isn't to preach anything. I'm not here to tell you what to think. The reason that I'm saying this is because we're seeing more and more capital flock to companies that are providing disruptive ways of improving society.

And those are many of the same companies that we talk about on this channel. And to me, Elon is a big symbol of that. So anyways, great day for Tesla! I know that many of you got in on Tesla's success. So congratulations to any Tesla shareholders Bitcoin exposure stocks.

oh like Maura, for example, Just massive rally. We talked about this one on Sunday and I know some folks got mad at me because it gapped up so quickly pre-market Monday and then everyone thought it was too expensive. But folks, that was really just the tip of the iceberg. this gap up was a very small portion of the run.

I know there's an idea that if you can't catch all of the move that it's not worth catching any of it, but that's just not true. As traders simply put, we can't catch all of the move, but we can be spoiled and grab the easiest part he is getting in, grabbing it and getting out. So anyways, just insane. Run on Mara, Congratulations to anybody that caught this.

Okay, quick update on Julia. Very nice balance. Today I said back here when the downtrend started that if you wanted to lock in your original profits from the original dip recovery that it was time to do it. And I really meant it.

And now once again, a little bit later, we've got another huge dip and some early warning signs of a recovery. Personally, I wish this would drop a little bit further so that we can get a better run back to the upside, but if this is indeed the trend that turns into the recovery, that's that's fine as well. But anyways, folks, it's time for the ticker of the hour. What time is it? Oh, it's Neo Time.

Neo day is coming up very very soon and we need to talk about what to know right before then, as well as what we can expect afterwards. And of course for breaking this down. The only thing I ask of you is that you hit that travishing like button and also don't forget to subscribe either. And of course Quick Plug.

Let's face it, the stock market is exhausting. There's so much going on, there's so many moving pieces and who knows which way's up. Well, we built Ziptrader You to help you with this problem. Aside from our step-by-step lessons and our private chat, we also offer daily morning briefings.

Some recent examples of highlighted sectors from the last couple days of morning briefings were the Crypto stocks, the Mj sector specific Sustainable Energy stocks, and of course updated guidance on many of our favorite plays in the context of the current events that were going on. This helps you make some sense of where the opportunities are on the market every single day. But anyways, I'll go ahead and put the link below if you are interested. Now as you may recall, Neo just rolled out their 100 kilowatt hour battery pack at the end of 2020 and this week they announced their 150 kilo battery pack at Next Generation swapping Station that will be rolled out alongside its flagship sedan.

Now if you don't remember, Neo's flagship sedan is supposed to be introduced on Neo Day, so one can assume we're going to be hearing a lot about their new battery, their new swapping station, and of course their sedan on that day. We also now know that Neo has entered into a contract with battery supplier Cat L, which means that Neo now has the option to use cheaper batteries and that makes them more competitive with cost-conscious customers. There is a pricing war in China right now, so anything that can help lower the price of the car is going to be a huge deal. And in context of the chart, we've been talking for weeks about playing a pre-anticipatory run up to Neo Day, but now we've already had a lot and we've gotten very close to Neo Day.

So now we're in a situation where we have literally one trading day left to pre-anticipatory run because Neo Day is on Saturday. and of course, if you're in the U.s China is about 12 to 18 hours ahead. so what do we see happening? Well, if history repeats itself, we'll get another run tomorrow. as people get anxious and greedy right before the actual day starts.

But at the same time, we have to understand that we've rallied quite a lot since the dip something like 30. That's pretty significant considering the other close players in this market haven't been able to recover nearly as much as Neo. When the whole sector cooled off, these got obliterated and never really made a comeback, whereas Neo made a very, very speedy comeback. And 30, Don't get me wrong, that's a great return on this, especially if you're one of our Neo folks that got in even sooner than that.

And so, if you don't want to risk your profits in order to have the hope of getting even more profits, well, I think it's totally reasonable to take Neo off the table before Neo day. But my personal outlook is that Neo is a 100 to 110 play. So for me, I'm thinking, okay, well, I think this is going to rally if it doesn't, Who cares if it sells off, Because I'm going to hold it and hold it and hold it. And honestly, for short-term traders, I always stress playing pre-anticipatory runs in post-reaction runs, but never holding through the catalyst themselves.

There have been numerous times where we have a huge catalyst that everybody hypes up. It runs up to the catalyst and then it gets beat down like a rabid dog. Look, I'm very bullish on this, but I'm going to be the first to tell you if you are somebody who is going to sell in a panic, if Neo sells off after Neo Day, then this is probably the time to take profits. I personally think that Neo is going to knock us out of the ballpark and because of the situation that we're in, I think this has the opportunity to set the stage for 2021..

when I see Neo, I see a beautiful company that has a proven and improving track record, solid deliveries, capital and brand recognition to expand and a huge market from which to expand in. They've also only gotten started with their product line. Most of the products that they're going to have that are going to be the most successful haven't even reached the market yet. One of them, their new sedan is going to be launched tomorrow and in terms of risk, a lot of people highlight the competition and say there's just too much competition for Neo.

If there's any competition, I just I can't buy it. But here's the thing. Yes, there is competition. It'd be better if there wasn't competition.

But Neo's business model, proof of concept, and capital backing thus far make it a clear leader in the Chinese Ev market, and even if it fell from grace, there's still a huge market to fight over. There's a lot of market to go around. So yes, I am very bullish, but it's one thing to have a company that already has a proven track record and has a lot of promise. and then it's another to show the steps that it's actually going to be taking to fulfill that promise.

And those steps are going to be shown tomorrow at Neo Day. And let me remind you, one of the biggest reasons that I like Neo is because of their battery as a service model. Well, guess what? Neo plans to add one new battery swapping station per day in 2021, and their current success with that subscription model is huge. Neo says that over 40 of the folks who bought a Neo car enrolled in the battery as a service program, which is a huge success, especially considering they're planning to announce an even better improvement on their battery swapping stations.

The improvement will allow the stations to contain more battery packs, be built at a lower cost, and accelerate deployment. I also happen to be one of the people that are of the opinion that some of the price depreciation in Chinese stocks were due specifically to the current administration's rhetoric and threats to China. Whether good or bad, the next administration is likely to be more friendly to China, which means less risk of delisting rhetoric from the Us. I don't think we're going to be as likely to have random delisting threats as we were in 2020.

And in terms of international context, Neo plans to expand to Europe in mid-2021 and maybe in a few years we get some expansion into North America. It's yet to be determined if they'd sell well in other countries, but there's certainly a huge chance. So in summary, if you look at what Neo's doing right now, you look at what they've accomplished in the past, and then you look at the wide array of new product and service offerings in the future and the huge market potential that it has. And I think that it's hard not to be bullish on Neo.

If I was going to make a prediction on what's going to happen with Neo, I would say that Neo Day is going to come out. There's going to be an initial pop right after Neo Day on Monday, and then we're going to get some cooling off for a while, probably until we get deliveries in early February, and then over the long term we're going to get my 100 to 110 price target by mid mid-2021 That's that's what my analysis would be if I'm going to spitball it.
