Seems like Apple App Store is removing all of the 1 star reviews and not letting anyone do new ones.

Just so gross how coordinated all of this damage control appears.

What? Seriously?

Yep, back at 4.8 when it was at 1 star earlier.


I just tried to submit a 1 star and write a review and it just timed out for me.

LOL. I saw it. What happened? Its not a short ratio attack stock.

These are popping up everywhere. Must be more reddit dogpiling. Unless maybe there's some stupid ginormous news that came out.

Not sure. I don't have reddit open. It just popped up on my screener and fit the bill for a momentum trade. I only trade like $500 thou.

RobinHood isn't allowing me to sell my DogCoin crypto. Are they being slick again? Can anybody else have the ability to "sell" their DodgeCoin?
They probably are. Crypto is fucking tricky. I usually buy my crypto on exchanges and push them to my hard wallet. Does Robinhood allow you to send? If so send to a wallet on Binance or something.

investors should know that there is not much news today surrounding New Concept Energy. In fact, the company has not shared any updates on its website since August. Why then is GBR stock up more than 600%?


For right now, there just may not be a clear explanation. We have seen a rise in speculative penny stocks alongside the r/WallStreetBets rally in GameStop (NYSE:AMC) and AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). While it is not clear that Redditors are rallying behind New Concept Energy, there is a chance that the Wild West atmosphere may be boosting GBR shares on Thursday.

So this single foray into purchasing individual stocks is probably it for me, lol. Even if GME and the other meme stocks skyrocket tomorrow and I make a profit, I'm out. Too stressful. This actually makes me feel better about missing out on Tesla and all the other huge stocks that I've beat myself up over the years. I was only focusing on the potential missed profits and not the general anxiety I feel about being locked into specific stocks (and the ensuing OCD-like behavior of checking their performance).

I'll give the example of Micron or (MU), based on its FCF Micron fair value is around 110. The stock however was running a bit too hot, so saw a drop from its YTD high. Once it went below 50 I would buy. If it reach 30 I would buy more to reduce my average price.

(I won't buy more if there is negative news about the company which is likely to destroy its value)

Looks like Webull reenabled GME and AMC buys. Robinhood still obviously not allowing them.
 
They thought i was laughing at people losing money. They we wrong. Imo respectfully

I said it seemed like you were getting enjoyment out of it. It does. I was happy for you when you got out of a losing position with amc and disappointed for you when you missed an opportunity. You just seem to think it's funny when people lose though.

I haven't lost with gme nor am I mad at you 🤷

Just think it's a little inhumane to laugh at others misfortune.

I’ve always tried to just play the long game with any real investment. Five year minimum on most of my choices. Far less stress and better rewards overall.

All this risky stuff is good for a few hundred, but my blood pressure won’t take any more than that!

Okay.........now I can sell my DOGEcoin on RobinHood. That was weird.

WTF is up with Robinhood? I am trying to deposit funds but while it lets me, they dont show up when I try to make my purchase. I have tried twice now and both times, they sent me an email saying the funds are available but on the website it still shows as zero.

Why wont they take my money?

I agree. Hindsight wisdom is brutal with stocks, especially when a few buddies or just random internet people make a killing and then you feel like a schmuck for not investing. But then you never really hear about their losses...

You've been identified as a meme trade, probably. They're just going to hold on to your money and not let you use it. For your own good, I'm sure.

FOMO is always real. And the house always wins on the risky stuff in the end. Best advice I got years ago was pick stuff that’s steady and looks decent, spread your portfolio and be patient. I got into investment trusts because of that and have done pretty well out of them ever since. Scottish Mortgage and me have been bezzies for years now 😂

Or they let so many people buy GME and other memestocks on margin that they have massive exposure if the trades don't settle in the green. Imagine that, Robinhood is in trouble if Citadel goes bankrupt because the price of GME is too high, they potentially are also on the hook cause they had an automated system that let people buy so much stock on margin that they may take losses if enough of those trades settle badly. I think there is a very real possibility we are witnessing the beginning of the next Global financial crisis.

Stupid question time: I know that a lot of retail investors in USA are now screwed over by the brokers for GME and other shorted stocks. But when European market opens that shit won't fly right? So wouldn't GME stock just fly at such low opening prices in EU or am I missing something?

It depends on a few things. What do investors in Europe think will happen? Do they still think it's good to buy?


If this has potential to cause a global financial crisis, every head of state in Europe is probably getting phone calls right now demanding that their markets shut down trading of GME too. Do the governments cave? Who knows.

Euro Options can only be excercised on expiration. So the rules may be different on the brokerage side

I never trade euro options tbh.
