The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

Rivian (RIVN)

Despite the rest of the market getting positively slammed, a few positive news stories caused Rivian (RIVN) to pop +12.78% from its dramatically-oversold status to finish the week as the Week’s Biggest Winner.

We’ll just ignore the fact that it’s still down -35.99% YTD after this week’s gain…

Roblox (RBLX)

Once the metaverse darling, Roblox (RBLX) reported a disappointing quarter where it didn’t earn nearly the amount of revenue analysts on the street expected. As a result, RBLX got decimated, dropping -25.58% this week alone and already down -51.80% for the year (and we’re barely two months in), definitely earning itself the spot of the Week’s Biggest Loser.

Year-to-Date Performance

The Speculative Basket

The Speculative Basket is made up of 11 positions that cumulatively share two target allocations. While I have more faith in these positions than those in my Speculation in Play portfolio (why they’re in this portfolio), I don’t want a full allocation to any of them.

The current basket members are: Amazon (AMZN), Berkshire-Hathaway (BRK.B), Coinbase (COIN), Dutch Bros (BROS), Meta (FB), Rivian (RIVN), Roblox (RBLX), Salesforce (CRM), Skyworks Solutions (SWKS), Take Two Interactive (TTWO), and Twilio (TWLO).

This Week’s Moves

Roblox (RBLX): Added to Position

Roblox (RBLX) gave itself a double-whammy to the downside this week. First, RBLX reported an absolutely dismal quarterly earnings report, but, then, it did so on a week where the entire market sold off due to concerns about Russia invading Ukraine.

As a result, Roblox plummeted to new lows on Friday, triggering a buy order I had which filled at $49.20. The order lowered my per-share cost -2.38% from $60.80 to $59.35, a total reduction of -22.92% from my initial buy at $77.00 on September 29, 2021.

From here, my next buy target is $41.35, a price determined using the Fibonacci Method, and my next sell target is $137.40, under RBLX’s current all-time high of $141.60.

RBLX closed the week at $49.72, up +1.06% from where I added Friday.
