Business has been pretty good lately, and I put a 1500 bucks in my TD Ameritrade account today strictly for gambling purposes.

Anyone have any suggestions for a stock that currently costs less than 2 dollars that might take off?

I had Argo Blockchain last year and AITX before that and they both turned out to be complete turds.

Thanks in advance

There's no reason to limit yourself to sub $2 stocks, price per share is irrelevent to risk/reward, really it's irrelevent to everything except options. You seem to be trying to ask about small caps?

Sounds like you are looking for a small cap stock. Look at market cap instead of share price as that is not indicative of a company’s size.

Most people would prefer owning a million shares of a company worth $1/share rather than one share worth $1M/share. If it is only $1/share, then you can dream how rich you will be if it only gets to $100/share even if that implies the company would be worth $50T.

Just go buy a damn scratch off. Jesus. This kind of thing is getting pathetic.

Clearly the fed is not being nearly aggressive enough. I have yet to see much demand destruction

NVDA or DIS

ETA: I ignored the part about $2 since it makes no sense to me.

To be fair, I haven’t seen one of these threads in a little while.

Apparently this isn't the place to go to get a straight answer to a question. It's only 1500 bucks and I've thought this over and can afford it. Sheesh!

People are trying to help you understand. Why do you insist on not listening. The price of the share is irrelevant, especially now that you don’t even have to purchase full shares.

What is the difference in owning 1500 shares of a stock that’s $1 or 750 shares of a stock that’s $2 if the market cap is the same?

He wants something under $2 because it might event pop off to $20 $50 $100.

Buying a stock at $150. It may go up to $200?

It’s strictly gambling lol

He wants 1000 shares to each go up $50. Not 10 shares each up $50.

These seem to be the types of stocks many like on this board for some reason. See above as an example. Great if you got in early but not great when you left holding the bag on many of these stocks. I advise against buying a cheap stock because many times there is a reason they are cheap.

Also, if it doubles you can sell half your shares, recoup your initial investnent, and let the rest ride.

That ignores taxes and partial shares but it perfectly describes most people's psychology.
