Obviously the market thinks they would be better at anything else other than shoes.

Maybe. Are meme stocks still a thing? Or perhaps it was on Nancy Pelosi's list?

Sid beat me to it.

GameStop 2.0

Made a few dollars off the GameStop fiasco. That was a fun day. Sitting in class at the police academy, a group of us in the corner of the classroom buying GME stock with extra job money.

Hope the SEC is watching their insider stock trades VERY closely!

Edging ever closer to peak hype on AI.

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/15/allbirds-bird-stock-shoes-ai.html

Allbirds (hot shoe company) ran out of gas. $4 Billion highest market cap. Tuesday, its market value was down to $29 Million.

CEO announces pivot to "AI company" shares up to $148 Million Wednesday (up over 400% in one day) . Apparently, absolutely no AI experience.

Fools and their money...

Day traders had a great time with it yesterday.

Who is buying (and selling) this ****?

A penny stock company did the same thing today by simply adding .ai to the end of their name. Stock jumped 400%.

Yep, that was a good one, too. I didn't trade $MYSE, but did make a couple of trades on $ONFO. First one +32.4%. In at $1.08 and out at $1.43. Second, in at $1.38 and out at $1.66 for +20.28%, but then it really took off to $2.41 before collapsing. What a ride!

I'm already exhausted with all things AI. Yet it's going to destroy us all. We're dumb.

Lolz. Play of the day for day traders was $EFOI. I was in at $3.97 during pre-market then out at $6.67 by 8:35 CST. It went to over $9.40 ten minutes later.

This is what's funny. $EFOI is described as a "Consumer Cyclical - Furnishings, Fixtures and Appliances".
What drove its momentum? "Energy Focus discloses new multi-year Project Y data center infrastructure contract with estimated value of approximately $6.6 million spanning 2026-2027". You can't make this chit up! LOL.

99% of these day trading stocks are crap stocks. Certainly not meant for holding. They are for day trading only and volatile as hell.

CEOs keep proving my point every day.

And the bootlickers keep running out of spots on their boots to lick.

If anyone is interested in taking advantage of these stocks I suggest you hook-up with StocksToTrade.com. Tim Bohen and Tim Sykes. Learn the skills to day trade. And, honestly, it will take you a year to get it down. Paper trade or buy 1 share each trade until you get it down. One needs to be passionate about it, as with all things, to truly excel at it. For me, when I excel in my work it's no longer work. It's just big time fun. I'm 68, it's a great hobby and I make bank.
