of course it may be broker dependent but I’ve definitely did fast moves....Matter of fact I just did one this week with BNGO using instant deposit

I got fidelity. I called them ans they said aint no flag on my account or anything, pretty good customer service tbh. Just wanted to see if any of the brehs do similar moves. Pretty sure how they work is yeah you can just transfer money and it takes a few days to settle but you can make moves in the meantime just that money better actually be in your bank account when the time comes lol

Im most likely not getting into any more positions until rblx anyway. Gotta see how BNGO pans out

I had to review my stocks balance sheets and I think I probably gotta get out of Uber. The balance sheet is getting rough. The operating expenses on Uber is almost always as much as their total revenue and that never factors in cost of revenue. We're talking almost $4 billion is sales and marketing almost $3 in administrative cost $2.5 in R&D and then there's this other category that's like $2. They got a $6.5 billion cost of revenue and they bring in $13 billion.

There's no way in hell Khosrowshahi is gonna trim their cost enough to get them profitable. Got $7.2 billion in cash and $6.9 billion in current liabilities. TTM they burned through about $5 billion in cash running the business. How the hell can they pay $6.9B in debt with $7.2B in cash while needing to burn through $5B just to run the business?

Gotta raise more capital and still haven't solved the problem of how to run the business at least breaking even on revenue. People buying this thing up past the IPO price but I wonder if any of them can answer that.

I think another way to look at Tesla also is how easy it is for them to raise capital. Elon could say "I need $10 billion for this project over here..." tomorrow and it's not an issue because it's not even a dent in the market cap and more importantly investors want him to do it because they believe in the company.

So Tesla is to the point now where they are going to stay ahead of the curve, they are going to continue to scale and they are going to continue to innovate and meet their expectations because they have all the backing they could possibly hope for and a team in place that is committed to doing it..

You don't see Elon sitting around doing shyt because he's rich as fukk. He was already rich as fukk. He's doing it because he wants to do it. It's his mission to do it.

There will come a point... I don't know when.. it's impossible to predict.. but there will come a point where Tesla continues to grow and scale and meet their expectations but the stock slows down some. It happens with every stock. It happens with Apple, it happens with Amazon..

Now I say that but Apple was still like 70% return last year. Amazon probably around the same. So they are still giving you monster returns deep into their run but it's not 500% or 200% in a year. They might only give you 20% this year and that would still be fantastic all things considering. Most investors would probably settle for 10% or 12%.

There will come a time when they will likely expand their dividend or expand buybacks to give incentives to continue investing.

and remember insane revenue will come when 25k car starts selling. FE thinks 55bil new revenue from 25k car alone.


This will be a mass produced mainstream car which will attract urbanites all parts of the globe. This really excites me. hope there is a 2door and 4door version. and then i wanna see smaller SUV on this. and eventually this will become the main EV for the robotaxi service. it's very likely Tesla to be the leader in robotaxi business because tesla already has level 5 autonomy and it's only getting better and better.

Cybertruck should also do well but it won't have a global appeal because how big that beast is. but fortunately the good old Murica loves truck and it will also sell very well.

and then we are forgetting the roadster is coming 2022. This is the halo car, a true supercar beater. talk about catalysts after catalysts.

It really pays to have a charismatic leader who loves the company and loves what he do. A bad CEO can ruin the company. Carlos Ghosn from nissan for example. Elon is the x-factor and i just think he will do whatever it takes to make things happen.

What Cathie saw in Tesla is how far ahead their tech was ahead of competition. She had hired someone from nvidia I believe and they were impressed by Tesla’s tech.

once Tesla started showing better numbers and profitability was ahead, stock started going up. When they got profitable, the big shorts got burned and had to cover. As it started running, more people jumped in. Stock split made it easier for people to get in again and then s&p inclusion had it run again. Now it’s meeting 500k target and moving from anticipated biden energy push.

will someone catch them? Who knows. But Tesla is staying innovative. The new battery tech stuff for example. Manufacturing efficiency. Cathie thinks they’ll win autonomous race, we’ll see. Getting their energy side of business going more would be a huge help.

ive been in riot and mara for a few months the returns been crazy more than if i invested in btc

the bitcoin miners hardware companies themselves seems like a very interesting play... basically theres a big backlog and major rush for all these companies to acquire mining equipment(efficient ones)

a vid I saw described it as the gold rush back then.. the ppl who made the real money werent the ppl mining for the gold(BTC) but the ppl selling the equipment and shyt like and pickaxe and shovel (mining companies and manufacturer ) .

these mining equipment folk can prob charge crazy prices on the equipment and miners will be at their mercy trying to get better miners as btc becomes more difficult to mine. But I gotta look into this more.

...and that’s where bitmain enters the picture...they supply RIOT btw...great thinking

I might have FOMO'd into RIOT but I feel the risk is worth it..

Outside of SQ I had no bitcoin exposure. Now I have a direct link.

I don't know enough about Bitcoin but I know how to read charts so while RIOT is a riskier play than I typically like.. it will continue to diversify my portfolio..

I can have a RIOT and say NIO and some risky plays because I'm well diversified.

RIOT is worth the risk. it's hard not to be bullish on any crypto related stocks.

good vid.


i'm thinking about trading my NNDM and buy RIOT for my webull.

1st Round Playoff Exits
I'm in agreement with you, I assume this is directed towards the perma bears and worrisome Willie's on here ? Lol.

A correction shouldn't concern anyone especially people our age.

And if you believe in your positions like TSLA or SQ or whatever.. don't stress. Weak hands are bad if there's a correction they are the first to sell out.
Even cathie is expecting a correction or two some time in 2021:
