Well, then look no further than the stock of tesla this is an amazing market, but its always been an amazing Challenging Market individual investors, though, are back they now make up north of 20 , some say 25 of the action and theyve weathered everything from frightened, screaming billionaires to the nastiest president ial race in living memory to a horrifying Global Pandemic theyve steeled their hearts against the lack of Covid Vaccine or even a therapeutic. They arent oblivious to the incredibly high unemployment rate, yet they havent let it change their minds about trying to make money in the stock market whats the perfect symbol of that attitude . Tesla. Not the man, not the car, not even the company but the concept. A time our country feels it doesnt have much to root for and a world that hates us. I dont remember if no, i cannot remember a time in my life when we were this hated, and i lived through the Nixon Administration now, tesla reported

Speaker pelosi remains optimistic about a preelection aid package. I dont know talks are continuing today not sure how Mitch Mcconnell feels about all that yeah, we got meadows on the tape too making some comments about that well get to that in a bit, guys lets start with snap. Hard to start anywhere else as they crush the estimates, revenue up 50. Rbc this morning says the growth looks less like a v and more look a check mark. And i saw you gave evan spiegel shoutouts on twitter last night. I had to. Doesnt have a lot of followers. Didnt bounce it back to me. Unlike there is some people who get right involved like one of my guests today. One thing i found that was spectacular was when i first started the street, we had a guy from advertising, he said, look, the holy grail is to get someone to start using colgate when theyre 16 snap augmented reality is all about reaching that age before they decide, you any, look, it is going to be old spice or going to be whatever, i dont know, churc
Ran out of ammo, no more stock left to sell the buyers ran right back in dow surging 440 points, s p pulled 2. 01 nasdaq soaring 2. 71 so how do we explain this incredible rebound as the averages gave up gains after trading .
