$10K invested in Tesla 10 years ago and simply held would be worth about $1.8 million dollars today.
i hate when folks post 10 year outlooks. It’s jsut not realistic. Especially from a penny stock point of view… who in here is even holding a stock from 5 years ago…Elon was the epitome of a mad scientist a few years ago

Man… something tangible I would’ve done were those Tesla calls the end of last week. A 150 call would’ve netted you like 7000 bucks Monday. I wish I didn’t take a break smh

I have stocks from 5 years ago - QCOM, CCI, SSTK, ADSK. Last year flipped my S&P mutual fund for VTI, I count that as an old hold as well. Some stuff you just hold and let grow

I steered right at those tsla calls eod on Friday and passed in favor of fb and nvidia. It worked out for me on the profit size but the profit from tsla would’ve been substantially bigger but I can’t think like that. Made 500 off of nvidia and fb on Monday and a couple hundred today off Of msft. Used those to get into xlc and mpc six month leaps which are both 10% profitable as of now. Gotta keep pushing. I gave up on the idea of me hitting those lotto plays. I’m aight with 500-1k weeks.

I don't agree. Some people buy stocks and hold onto them until retirement. It might not be realistic for you but people can buy a stock and decide come hell or high water they're holding it for at least a decade. My Apple shares I have now I don't plan on selling them unless I'm forced to.

Question for the crypto investors:

Do y'all look at moving averages of coins and invest/buy based off that?

ie. Bitcoin took a dip and is currently trading below its 20MA and 50MA, therefore its a good opportunity to get in.

1 because I bought them from 2019 when I opened my first investment account outside of retirement accounts. Unfortunately for me I wasn't educated by my parents on the value of investing. Even my 401K is only 10 years old.
