I was like uhhhh...wut. I couldn't get out of there quick enough. I was enjoying the conversation up until then, but immediately discredited everything he said, and wanted nothing to do with wackadoo bean farmer.

Soybeans still mattered midsummer.

It's amazing that society actually does work. It's why I discount all of the conspiracy stuff*. There are really very few people in the world who actually want to destroy society, and a whole lot of people who are interested in keeping it on track.

*Except the aliens. That stuff's real.

It's not my analysis, you act like I came up with this whole thing. It's already went from under $5 to almost $80 in less than 6 months. But yeah, you're right...there's nothing to it at all. All of the information out there is made up and the millions of backers are being duped. The $3+ BILLION shorts have lost on AMC alone as reported by multiple news outlets is fake news. I'm done arguing about it, I honestly give zero ****s what you think you know.

I am sitting on a bit of cash right now due to exercising some stock options. I am in all likelihood going to invest into the same types of boring ETF/Indexes as always. However, I am planning to take some of this cash (~$10K) and more actively invest/trade it as well. Anything look good to you today that I should take a closer look at? I haven't started my own looking yet so I thought I would shamelessly see if I could leverage some work that others may have already done.

MRNA

I'll add I don't know much of anything about what I'm doing.

Anyone working in supply chain/logistics? This story is pretty insane in the board game realm. For this particular kickstarter, the shipping costs have gone up $180k since the campaign ended.

I got stopped out fully on 7-15 as I kept moving up my stop loss to the prior day's low.

I scaled out in chunks.

20% at 5% gain
20% at 6% gain
20% at 9% gain
40% at 15% gain

Total trade was 9.3% gain.

PINS has been on fire this week. Wish I had more.

Academy Sports and Iron Mountain have been great earners for me as well.

Twitter and Snapchat(up 23% on Fri) had real strong earnings last week. Probably giving anything in advertising a boost. PINS reports earnings next week

3rd week of earnings season is my favorite. Most of the tech goes. Apple, Amazon, MS, Google. I'm pretty sure Tesla, PYPL, Visa, MA & Shopify. I've held Lam Research and Sherwin Williams a long time and they're both in this week somewhere.

That's why a day like last Monday can get a person stressed out when overall you have more upside days, unless a person is awful at picking stocks.

Look at the bad days as possible buying opportunities. Unfortunately I didn't have much cash laying around to do that last Monday.

I bought up a ton of Draft King when it hit 41ish. I feel like it's bound to implode once the NFL Season kicks off. Plus sports betting is rapidly getting legalized across all states.

Also I still have faith in GME. Well I need to after shoving a bunch of cash into it around 200. FML
