Or a day after good news, or a day after no news, or a day after a day ending in a “y”…..
Call me naïve but I’m starting to think this stock game can be manipulated.

Tell me about it. I'm looking forward to that vote count as I hope it will be a catalyst for the meme stocks to go boom or bust.
I don't think either scenario will be damaging to the hedge funds. They are on top of this game, making money on the volatility.

I bought the spac HOL on May 18 - $10 even per share. It is taking Astra Rocket public. Yesterday they announced July 1 is when that will happen. It's up to $11.17. They have successfully launched into Space and have a contract with NASA. ASTR will be on Nasdaq

Doing what I knew they would do and I am long term buy and hold still on it.
They announced that they will price match 15 different lenders by 35 basis points. Most brokers I know favor UWM but will send loans to other lenders when the pricing is just not close enough. 35 basis points is usually the striking difference that they are in. It is not a perm thing but it will gain them a number of loans this quarter.
I read today that their cost per loan is significantly lower than all competitors. So, they have the advantage of being faster/easier all the time and then have the muscle to be a price leader as well. As the broker channel grows, so will UWM. As interest rates increase and there are rate compressions, UWM will continue to grow.
I view them more like a tech company that does mortgages than a mortgage company. I think Wall St. is behind the curve and views them as a mortgage company and is pricing them as such. I have added to my position accordingly.

$KALA continuing to make gains.
Everything I read makes me think this is a lucrative market as there are a lot of people that qualify for dry eye syndrome and have the more short term flare ups, of which Eysuvis is the only drug that can be prescribed.
Just launched in January so if people were expecting great numbers out of the gate, think that was unreasonable.
Should be a second half winner. More people starting to go to eye doctor again now that pandemic is getting behind us and also this drug is being added to more insurance plans on an ongoing basis.

Another stock that has been absolutely pummeled that could be poised for a comeback is EVFM. They make a non hormonal birth control product. Starting to see more commericals now for their product Phexxi.
It was closer to $4, a few months ago now just barely over a $1
HC Wainwright has put a price target of $4 on it as of yesterday, think it rebounds. The CEO is presenting at a conference this week

I just bought a few shares. Decent chance is this a one-day thing that I lose money on, like NOK back in January.But now Wendy's is a freaking meme stonk?

Draftkings is hot right now, wish I had bought more when it was under $43. Had a rough ride for a couple of weeks but it has rebounded quickly here.
Flutter PDYPY (fanduel) also making some daily gains again.

SOFI, you got to let me know
Should I sell or should I hold?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'till the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I sell or should I hold?
It's always tease, tease, tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day it's red and next it's green
I need an answer don't be mean
Well, come on and let me know
Should I sell or should I hold?
Should I sell or should I hold now?
Should I sell or should I hold now?
If I hold, there will be trouble
And if I sell it will go to double
So come on and let me know
Should I sell or should I hold?

Another setback coming out of Lordstown Motors (RIDE), this after a nice run the last few days. Wanted to pull the trigger on puts but didn't make it happen. Damn

<tinfoil hat on> GME closed at exactly 300 a day after AMC closed at exactly 55 and GME at 280.01. Someone is demonstrating that they have complete control of the prices. <tinfoil hat off>

This is the risk of these meme/high shorted stocks. The stock prices are up because of perception of big squeezes and while yes, shorts are losing money (not exactly a new thing if a stock goes up), when a stock is being shorted a lot it usually means the price is too high like this. RIDE had more than doubled in the last few weeks before the big drop today and that was because it dropped so much from already stated big delays. With so much new competition including the big guys have trucks ready, that delay may have sunk them. People bought the stock today above $15. They lost 1/3 in a few minutes. Wouldn’t shock me to see it dive under $10 tomorrow.

NVDA
Kinda a longer play around here. An entire month or so. Might get a bump on the split.
The stock split will be payable in the form of a stock dividend. Each shareholder of record as of June 21 will receive an additional three shares of stock for every share held. The shares will be distributed after the market close on July 19, and the newly split shares will begin trading when the market opens on Tuesday, July 20.

Is nobody concerned about the ARM deal potentially getting nixed for NVDA? Last I read it seemed like a coin flip.

Agree.
Personally, I may be just riding free shares by then, Very good point though.
That’s hilarious if true. I guess the redditors don’t realize that Wendy’s was taken over years ago by the worst of the worst of Wall Street sharks: Leveraged Buyout Private Equity. All they’re doing is helping the billionaires they purport to be sticking it too, get richer.But now Wendy's is a freaking meme stonk?

WSBs likes to say "Sir, this is a Wendy's." At least they are pumping a profitable company for once. I wonder if the decline in crypto is related to people using that money for all these pumps. I feel foolish for not joining in. I didn't have faith in the herd but they are proving me wrong.

You'd have to look at the profit on shares sold. If you bought 1,000 shares at $1 each and then they rose to $1.10 each, you would sell about 910 shares to recoup your $1,000 initial investment. So $91 in profit there and the other $9 in profit would still be invested with the remaining 90 shares. If you bought shares at different prices then you could sell the shares bought at the higher price first to minimize your capital gains.
I don't worry about taxes though cause I don't make profits. Someone else will correct me if I'm wrong.

Or, .... vote to issue more shares!
That way the company makes more money ... and there's plenty of shares for everybody!
It's a win / win ... unless you're long and hoping for a squeeze.
