But with the recent quarter results of that company, I’d be surprised if more than a small handful of regular (albeit none too bright) stockholders ever have a chance to sell at break even or a profit. $79ish high and currently at $17. And as soon as Trump meets the requirements to sell soon, he will no doubt bail/cash in and then another big drop for regular maga stockholders. I’ve seen it described as a meme stock.

Regardless, dummies or idiots, they have no one to point at but their own foolish choices; unless you're a butcher, worshiping a sacred cow is just not a good reason to invest in the market.

It’s really sad how much they have been swindled by this conman. But they keep wanting to be abused. In fact, they clamor over each other to see who can be abused more. It’s so pathological.
