    Hi all,

    I'm here to essentially spam my favorite forum with a personal link. Hope that's cool :)

    i just recently started making trades using this app called robinhood. the sweet thing is that it costs $0 to make a trade, unlike most sites that charge about $7 per trade.

    if you want to give it a try, use my link and we will both get one free stock.

    There's A Free Stock Waiting For You


    so far i've gotten like $18 worth of Groupon stock, CHK shares, etc.

    and if anyone already does make regular trades, what are some of your favorite stocks? i've found a bunch of them that are under $4 that i like to trade. OPTT, PDLI, GERN, ARTX...

    I bit. I've been wanting to start playing the stock market anyways. This app is pretty cool and makes it really easy

    Now I have a free Groupon stock.

    Also, Bump

    I bought- actually hub bought in joint account, but it was my pick- SSYS this week at $18.25. Not really a trading stock, but betwwen Trump’s tariffs and management guiding expectations liwer the stock went diwn 29% this week (recovered somewhat).

    It may be early to get in, but I thought the air was getting out of the stock. SSYS is a leader in 3D printing for medical and dental apps and is probably the leader in aerospace apps. However, the latter will take a long time to mature, as qualifying new technology for aerospace requires extensive testing. Meanwhile, SSYS consumer biz is a bit of a drag on the company.Keep an eye on it!

    It implies that partaking in the stock market is dubious by default and i didn't expect you to join in on it too. But when i add a smiley like this: :p its usually ment humorous ;)

    i sold my first groupon stock for 5.23 (on Feb 8th)
    and the next one for 4.37 (Feb 27th)

    i'd be surprised if it gets back to $5 any time soon

    sell your groupon stock and buy something else

    A bit like the old saying, that the only way to make money on the horses is to buy the betting shop. LOL.

    Back when I paid attention to the industry, I scored pretty big with Under Armour. And sold it just in time before it all fell down.
