I wish Cgrand would come back. I made money on most of his recommendations. Traded FSLY and came out making money. I enjoyed his thoughts.

It was hard not to be viewed as a trading guru between April 2020 - Feb 2021. Everything went up exponentially.

FSLY, LVGO/TDOC, NVTA, SE, ETSY, DOCU, PINS, etc. All of them came crashing down hard. I know after I recommended some stocks and they crashed in 2022, it was embarrassing and crushing to talk to those same people about the market. I don’t give advice to family and friends as much anymore, because people truly will start a position off of my exuberance without doing due diligence.

I’ve cost my BIL a lot of $$$ on AUPH after the big spike in October 2021, HGEN around August same year, and TELL in September 2022.

Only stock I have recommended to him this year was ORGN.

Same. I stayed in FSLY stubbornly though. I'm actually pretty thrilled recently as I bought my cost down over the past year to $19.8/share. I ended up putting way more money than I wanted to in order to get that average down though. Not my typical strategy.

If FSLY hits $20 any time soon I'm selling it all
