Bought some GT (Goodyear) out of solidarity. 

I always had Goodyear tires on my FJ back in the States, and was always very satisfied with them.

And they actually look like a potentially good buy too.

Uber is another one that's buyable.

Have they ever been even remotely close to profitable?

Remotely, I think yeah.

Way I see it Lyft is dying, Uber is gobbling up food delivery, and their rideshare has to come back at *some* point

Lyft seem to be going for a more sustainable growth pattern whilst uber are trying to grab as much of the market as they can. It's a question of whether uber is able to keep faith for a long while before breaking even.
Is lyft available anywhere outside the US yet?

And TSLA cracks 2000.  :sleep:

Make sure you hold your shares until end of tomorrow to be eligible for the split stocks as dividend.

Congrats, man, who would have thought it gets this crazy. I'd be looking to sell after the initial post-split buyfest, though.

I still think Musk is going to jail someday. :hmm:

But anyway, congrats Yi. :)

Fuck it, I went into American Airlines way too early and with terrible timing, just couldn't watch another sucky position on my list. As my losses there had about as much as my gains this week mini-betting on Tesla CFDs, I just sold AAL and replaced it with the more hip dud Uber. Can't be much worse, I'll reenter an airline in a couple of months.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

How about Visa Tamas?  Revenue was growing 24% a year pre-Covid, the world will only get more cashless, and it has been ticking up like a metronome (not going ballistic) since I bought some during the dip.  Pays a joke of a dividend.

Will check it out in my next round purchase, cheers.

That link doesn't lead me anywhere, but if it's a group that discusses stock trades or derivatives, I'm not joining.
