I haven't been on any meds since that brief period I was on Ritalin in the 8th grade.

Exxon stock price was not only in the local paper and WSJ we subscribed to as a kid the price was on the local news each day. Long long ago the price was on a little sign at the refinery at the office on site. They took that down and someone told me it was removed because it lead to workers cutting safety corners lol.

Hate all you want junior, but consider when I was a kid, in school we were taught to actually read this shit and got to make "stock picks" and have contests for the best performers. Unlike you kids today who go to school to learn there are more than two genders and that Orange Man Bad.

Don't recall how many shares pretty sure it was under 100. I think it was a $17-18 stock at the time but I was poor.

The olden days was so rigged against us poors. Assymetrical info, transaction fees, odd-lot fees, account minimums, no DRIPS, transaction minimums, no mutuals or ETFs. When people bitch about Wallstreet today, they have no idea how far we have come in helping out the non-wealthy build wealth.

I remember when finishing my degree sitting at Merrill Lynch (97-98) and a broker telling me these new e brokers would never make it. That sit down changed my career, they seemed so sleezy to me and full of shit that despite going through school figuring I would go work for one of the big brokerages it all died that day. I'm sure glad it did.

My aun't's second husband worked for Merrill as a broker. What a degenerate piece of shit. I have known crack dealers with a stronger moral compass.

Four Fed speakers today. Expect at least one of them to put their dick in the dirt and say something stupid.

It's riding that crypto rally.
Also, stupid fed talk can drive the market either way. Never forget the magic word of stonks go up, QE.

There really isnt a whole lot to buy right now. Some values might be found in Tech, but I really have enough of tech. Everything else just looks overpriced or not something I want to own.
People still eatng up that NVDA stock split tho

I have a feeling we are going to need a nice meme pic of a person in the fetal position with a s&p chart behind them at 6000 and a thought bubble of “but Michael burry was short!”
