After a few days of being bombarded by Yahoo Finance push alerts that "Stock you own is down 5%", I finally turned them off.
Welp, sun comes up and TSLA goes down 5% now.
i'm here to report that my beginning to invest my own cash has tanked the market....I have lost 20% in the last several weeks. NICE JOB BY ME.
Incoming stimmibux. Get hard.

I am very conservative with most of my investments, but I also have ~10% (+/-) where I take risks on certain things I think could have huge upside (or go to zero).
Nobody wants to hear about the buy and hold names that I have owned for years and will own for years, pretty much regardless of what they do day to day. And I also don't know that I'd recommend them on here because I think to own a stock like that you have to truly believe in the long-term thesis.
I do have the "advantage" of working in equity research and talking about these things all day (when I'm not posting). So I think that helps me identify long-term secular winners.
But when I posted that I like TELL a few weeks ago, that falls into the high risk/reward category. I still like that one, by the way.
I did some research and took a modest position on TELL several days ago. It's up about 17% right now. MORE PICKS!
What's the case for TELL?
I just threw some more money in so a red Friday is assured
