Man, i've looked back at a bunch of different random stocks that have gone down like 90% since 2020-2021.
Did the country as a whole lose half it's net worth since then or something??? Yeesh

Of course not. The market is way up since then. Just rebalancing out of junk stocks that people bought on name and emotion rather than any semblance of reality.

The problem was where they were valued then, not where they are valued now. Most of those you could argue are STILL overvalued even down 90%. Which is a good indication of how ridiculously stupid the prices people were paying then were.

Maybe I'm just thinking back to the CYDY days

That stock with $266k in lifetime revenue whose market cap got as high as $3 billion?

I know nothing and even I thought that was wild

A true pump and dump that the FFA was in on.

It was a pump and dump. Was the FFA in on it or used for it though? I lean towards the latter.

Sure...merely a flesh wound. I still see Hgen in my account as a constant reminder to not get caught up in the hype. Sure, there's been some winners in here, but also plenty of turds.

I’m going to try and post this in a way that doesn’t get deleted like it does every other time.

$DJT is a publicly traded company on the US stock market. This is the stock thread.

$DJT has horrible fundamentals with no real plan to get better and the stock price is entirely out of whack compared to its real-life performance. There’s been a multitude of questionable financial transactions related to this company, as well, that create a potential legal overhang.

The most famous user and very large shareholder of this company is going on a competitor’s platform for an interview tonight. If this signals a return to that competitor platform full-time, this could signal that this individual is basically admitting his “preferred” platform is insufficient and could cause downward pressure on $DJT.

Getting absolutely bombarded with X ads for said user this morning. Seems like a safe bet.

I though of this, too. I'd be curious how that would play out. Market Cap is $5B, which seems maybe a little high based on their :checks notes: $4 million in annual revenue, negative earnings, and massive dilution. Actually paying the market cap value would be a clear donation way above maximum limits but I'm not sure how you prove that beyond a reasonable DUH, and anything less should get shot down by shareholders? No idea.

Ahh the SPAC days of 2020. I literally put down payment money for a house in a handful of SPACS I bought in the low $10s, figuring it was nothing but upside with a downside capped at that $10. What could go wrong? Safety, with upside! I'm a genius!

Luckily we found a house and I cashed out before they all fell apart. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

I own 4, $20 DJT puts expiring 10/18. Bought them after reading an article a few months ago, I can't seem to finf now, how the lock up period for insiders is end of September. A week or so earlier if the stock price is over $20. Given the valuation, I don't see how there won't be a race for the exits.

I'm thinking about gambling on some CMG calls. It's already drawn down a bit and this reaction seems a little overdone. Never owned it before. Might sell a put in an IRA and start scaling into a position.

I like all of this. Except maybe for the timing. Meaning, I've been trying to follow a three-day rule where you don't make big moves like this until three days after some kind of shake-up. I may piggyback on this come Friday.
