There's a great chance these aren't the final 5. The DGAs and Oscars haven't match nominations since 2010.

Weed stocks were my first investments. LOL My big one, my extreme long shot is 1933 Industries (TGIF). I have 5 digit number of shares. And I have around 4 other companies that I invested in, though not that much (less than 200 shares). Last month, I got into a gaming/gambling stock called TheScore. It's a small Canadian company with the #1 sports app in Canada. They're starting to break into the US betting market, and they also just listed on the Nasdaq last week. TheScore isn't close to any of the big American players, like Penn Gaming, Draftkings, or Fanduel, but I'm thinking it could be a buyout one day. I think the weed and gambling markets are going to be huge in 5-10 years. Fingers crossed for the Democrats passing more weed bills and decriminalizing it one day soon....like before 2022 elections. LOL Looks like WSB is targeting Rocket Companies (RKT) next. It's up 71% today.

Here we go! Round 2! GME up $46.74 (104%) for the day, ending at $91.71. And now they're up to $168 during after hours (reaching $200 at one point). I need this to hit $333 to break even. LOL

Sasha Calle Cast as New Supergirl
That’s a great reaction video. This multiverse Flash movie is going to be nuts. Can’t wait for it.

Congrats, Naomi! We finally have the next female superstar in Women’s tennis....heck, in tennis overall. There’s no one really on the men’s side that’s going to dominate after the big three retires.

The issues with RH and other brokers' restrictions definitely stopped the momentum. GME was definitely headed towards $500+. They seemed to stopped the bleeding these last two days. I'm long on Blackberry. I have 3 digit number of shares.

Looks like I lost my GME gamble (still holding....no point in selling at this price). Oh well, not a big loss. LOL

You found a stock for $9 last March and now it's at $228? I wish we had this thread back then! LOL What other investment boards/sites do you go to? I bought my one GME share at $339. 🤪
-
SON Wall$treetBets
Woah, it's up to 50+ stocks now with limits. GME went from 5 shares allowed in the morning to 1 share allowed by the end of day. Ridiculous.

I should've bought AMC when it went to $7 yesterday. I missed that boat. In Canada, we have a thing called a Tax Free Savings Account, and you can open up a TFSA Trading account. So any gains you make in that account is tax free (sweeeeet!!!). If you invest in a stock on an American exchange, you only pay tax on the dividends. That 2 day settle period sounds bad. I want my money right away in case I want to buy something else with it. LOL.

Did you buy more today? Some of these stocks are my "entertainment/vacation money" that's just been sitting in my account because there's nothing to do and nowhere to go. I have other stocks that I'm long, my real investments. There's one I have that I really like. The company is called Lightspeed POS (ticker: LSPD). Last week I was up %100 but it's gone down a little bit this week, but I'm still up big. To me, it could be the next Shopify. Their stock got hit in March 2020 at the beginning of the lockdowns and it dropped to $9 USD (they were in the 20-30$ range before March). Now it's at $69. Their next earnings report is coming up in February

Many people don't believe this. They're using the media to try and trick people to sell. "Oh, they closed their shorts and the stock is not soaring. I guess there's no short squeeze. I'm going to cash out now." HOLD!

SON Wall$treetBets
7 shares of GME and 30 AMC?!! Damn!! I guess you're really hoping for the short squeeze to happen way more than I am. LOL. I was actually thinking of getting some AMC but I went with the one share of GME instead - I wanted to part of this. I do have shares of BB though. I'm excited for tomorrow. I hope it will be a good day and if it is, next week could be really, really good. So I was wondering why/how GME went from $500 to about $110 so quickly and I saw people talking about a "short ladder attack" - it was a term I never heard before, and I found this article from 2014: Anatomy Of A Short Attack: https://seekingalpha.com/instablog/11442671-gerald-klein/3096735-anatomy-of-a-short-attack ------- Typical tactics include the following: Flooding the offer side of the board - Ultimately the price of a stock is found at the balance point where supply (offer) and demand (bid) for the shares find equilibrium. This equation happens every day for every stock traded. On days when more people want to buy than want to sell, the price goes up, and, conversely, when shares offered for sale exceed the demand, the price goes down. The shorts manipulate the laws of supply and demand by flooding the offer side with counterfeit shares. They will do what has been called a short down ladder. It works as follows: Short A will sell a counterfeit share at $10. Short B will purchase that counterfeit share covering a previously open position. Short B will then offer a short (counterfeit) share at $9. Short A will hit that offer, or short B will come down and hit Short A's $9 bid. Short A buys the share for $9, covering his open $10 short and booking a $1 profit. By repeating this process the shorts can put the stock price in a downward spiral. If there happens to be significant long buying, then the shorts draw from their reserve of "strategic fails-to-deliver" and flood the market with an avalanche of counterfeit shares that overwhelm the buy side demand. Attack days routinely see eighty percent or more of the shares offered for sale as counterfeit. Company news days are frequently attack days since the news will "mask" the extraordinary high volume. It doesn't matter whether it is good news or bad news. ------ So freaking shady.
