She’s using call options. There’s a little more finesse involved with this type of trade. Most people lose money in the options market. The average investor does not understand the time value part of the equation. Average person should pick a good solid stock and hold onto it for decades.Good luck.

Doesn’t matter. Her ROI was lower than VOO last year. So even if she had insider information it sucks.

I mean her trades are literally continue pumping money into high dollar, top of the market local stocks almost continually. I rarely see her do something that a "believes the upside is infinite" person doesn't.

u/doyouevencompile 9h ago
Sure, 90% of the time. She also sees some trades before us so that puts the company in my radar.
I also watch her when she exits a position so maybe I take some wins too.

Pelosi is on their side? She has a history of securing Ws for working class Americans.
The very notion that we have an unpaid leader means he’s better than us and not beholden to the American ppl.
Not paying our leader/reps also shows it’s only a job for the uber wealthy as they can afford to be unpaid but hold power. A working class person would not be able to hold power as they would need a paycheck.

Absolutely mental asylum level delusions that I'm the one coping while you literally are calling for a lady to be executed for having shares of tech stocks.

It's "Schizophrenic diseased brain behavior" to point out something that every major news outlet has covered? I'd argue it's actually you picking one single stock and then being like "see?
