The Markets
With the galaxy still reeling from the galaxy-wide pandemic, the markets are faring no better across the board, with a few exceptions. We take a closer look at some of the noted picks since the commencement of the AMS outbreak. I'm always asked how I've kept my head above water throughout the pandemic, and below I go into some detail as to what picks I've made, or avoided, to stay ahead.
Blackwell Technologies (BLKW): + 9.92%
Leading the charge over the course of the pandemic, the Blackwell Technologies group has done well, with considerable Government contracts propping up its bottom line. Under new management since the beginning of the pandemic, Blackwell has seen a large number of its upper-management take up senior positions within the Government of the ISC (@Sreeya), seeing a glut of public contracts coming their way. This is a sure pick for any investor looking to stabilize their portfolio.
MorataCorp (MC): + 12.37%
It turns out that developing a vaccine that could save the entire galaxy comes with considerable fiscal advantages. Whilst their R&D costs continue to rocket, their rally in value has seen investors flocking. However, long term outlooks are shakey, with some asking if the company has what it takes to cement their gains once the AMS vaccine drops off their portfolio. A cautious investor could pick this, those with a longer-term view would be wise to conduct their own due diligence.
Czerka Arms (CZK): + 3.18%
Always a solid pick, and one of the staples in many a long-term portfolio, Czerka continues to perform well, with consistently strong returns, only slightly damaged by the supply disruption the AMS virus has caused. Sticking true to their pledge to increase dividend payouts year on year, Czerka Arms has secured the loyalty of investors once again.
AgriSuub (AGS): -19.63%
Taking a pummelling with vast swathes of its farmland falling prey to the AMS virus, AgriSuub has had a tough year. WIth food prices skyrocketing across the mid and outer-rim, AgriSuub would have been an obvious pick at the start of the year, set to see returns skyrocket due to increased demand, however, with many of its farms overrun in the first few months, it was ill-equipped to take advantage of the bounties. A poor pick for any investor.
TaggeCompany (TGG): + 11.51%
If there is one thing a galaxy-wide crisis causes, it's a greater demand for infrastructure rebuilding. Governments, keen to stimulate the economy of their words, were quick to invest in infrastructure this year, with TaggeCo being a key recipient of these bloated contracts. Continuing its time-honoured tradition of passing revenues down to shareholders, TaggeCo remains a proud occupant of any serious investors portfolio.
All in all, it has been a tough year for investors, many of whom have seen a need to stimulate their own cash flow through the sale of yachts, speeders and mansions - a tragedy that has passed unnoticed by many. However, with the intelligent stock picks by yours truly, you can remain flush, no matter which wierd dribbling monster is trying to get into your penthouse.
