I am pleased with my STNE too today.
Jumped out and back in on TSLA today for a nice little gain.
Got fucked bigtime doing a favor for a relative this morning and got stuck in traffic and cashed my PGE stock because they made me run late and I couldn't read the news or be at my desk for the open. Cost me 100 times over in gains what it would have for them to have ubered to the fucking airport but they have a baby so I had to be a good relative -_-

Elon Musk wants to keep ex-girlfriend Grimes out of an investor lawsuit over his take-private tweet

• A group of investors is suing Tesla and Musk related to the now-infamous take-private tweet.
• Canadian musician Grimes was dating Musk in August when he tweeted that he was considering taking Tesla private at $420 per share.
• The plaintiffs are also proposing subpoenas of rapper Azealia Banks, who alleged in Instagram posts that Musk was using drugs at the time, and various media outlets.

Elon Musk is fighting to keep his ex-girlfriend from being dragged into an investor lawsuit over the Tesla CEO’s now infamous take-private tweet.

Musk’s attorney, Dean Kristy, argued in a motion filed Thursday in a U.S. district court that the proposed subpoena of Canadian musician Grimes, who was dating Musk in August when he tweeted that he was considering taking Tesla private at $420 per share, is an effort to “sensationalize these proceedings” rather than a legitimate fact-finding mission.


A group of investors is suing Tesla and Musk related to the tweet. The plaintiffs are also proposing subpoenas of rapper Azealia Banks, who alleged in Instagram posts that Musk was using drugs at the time, and various media outlets that interviewed Banks or Musk, like Business Insider and The New York Times.

that story is 3 weeks old^^^

I'm in on some Fnko too and trying to decide if a market crash will take it deep down toward 12 again or if it can endure, as I feel a positive bit of news is possible from the company.

I buy funko when it goes below $15. It could drop to 11 or 12 but will be over 20 eventually again. Then $30. Maybe a ten bagger but most likely not.

Any of you on Stock Twits. It is Twitter for stocks. Bunch of shit talking and stupidity. Especially the Tesla feed. This one anti Tesla guy was arguing with a pro Tesla guy of Indian descent and the anti Tesla guy is rubbing it in his face saying, "My house costs more than you could make in 20 lifetimes since you idiots believe in that shit." lol

I like to go into chats of stocks that are crashing and laugh at them. Especially crypto people.

Sounds good. You guys are throwing around some serious money. That's bigger than my entire portfolio. I have about 10k. Just started a year ago.

Bought ALB and LTHM at the bottom today hoping for a lithium rebound, particularly with regard to mines in Chile.

I want to get in on Costco but above 200 it's still too fat to hold itself up if/when the market goes back to 23,000 before we spring back on a trade deal.
trump has a guy stumping hard on CNBC right now trying to kill as much of today's trade-meeting-cancellation news as possible.

Are there any free stock chats that are worthwhile? I'd like to find some for futures and options.

Most of what I have seen on Discord and Reddit is pretty juvenile and short term thinking. Reddit Investing is more grown up. r/investing. r/wallstreetbets is hilarious though. everyone throwing hail marys. Do you want to learn or something? I could suggest some videos or sites. Options Alpha is free and really breaks down options trading from top to bottom. dozens of videos. Tasty Trade and Dough too.
