I’m still holding 10k shares in the primary portfolio which I don’t dare touch.

I had 600 shares in the “play account” and sold at $3.34

Justifying why I don’t dare touch the primary portfolio with swing trading

Nice day, wish I was playing for more myself....if Cal PERS did make a buy like that, it's still a drop in bucket for them.....could easily have been something in the high-risk part of the portfolio, almost automated. I don't know what the total Cal-PERS portfolio size is, but it's a lot.

Also, traditionally institutions like that don't go in until the $5 level. Wonder what prompted that move.

Considering the $5 mark comment, I wonder if he’s been watching the whole time & waiting for an entry point that would be acceptable to whoever he answers to, or at least less likely to get him fired.

Better investment than buying a shopping mall, like so many have done in the last 20 years.

I was just reading that. Each fund makes their own "rules", including a set percentage for (wild) speculation, if they're so inclined.

Doesn't look like Cal PERS runs on an index basis, so most likely somebody pushed the button...

Jesus, they hold $300B in assets Their MVIS buy isn't even a rounding error for them...

...but, read up on the CalPERS effect. Interdasting. They create their own little wake when they buy, just like that sports bar guy.

Well so far, for the day at least, that's a correct statement.  But it does seem to be rebounding some again.

That’s what I got out of his post, just him mentioning the dip.

I’m in the “hold fast” group, I have a lot of confidence in this company, and the predictions of a buyout.  Still, when I see a dip I’m like “here we go”!  I just need to remember it’s MVIS which acts like almost no other stock, and that we’re still up well over 15% today, and to hold the course.  

We’ve got this.

Actually rebounding nicely, steadily upward.  

Part of me wants it to drop so I can buy a little more, and part of me says, "Screw it, let's light this candle."

Wandered over to see if you guys were holding on or jumping ship at $3.75ish.  I'm tempted to get out and wait for what seems like a guaranteed drop to happen.

I'm holding for the buyout, but I'm a poor one to ask...I've been holding for 15 years More to the point, I'm not in this for a nice profit, I'm going the lottery ticket route.

We're over 33M shares traded today. If this is irrational exuberance, I can't wait for Friday.

We may very well in up in the same boat some day, but I'm feeling for the momo guys that went in on LAZR with no DD at $40+.

The Portnoy school of investing is a minefield.

Well, I was one of them.
I had a sell set for half my holdings @ $4, (my average cost is $1.91, so my initial cost is paid back, now all my MVIS is pure profit).
Wish I had paid attention, I may have canceled the order.
I need to put a buy in again @ $3 (if we ever see that again).

Also wish I had paid attention when this post started and bought a bunch in the <$0.25 range.

I'm thinking yes, for sure. it was sub $6 a share a few months ago, and under $9 this morning, and $9.13 currently. The main thing I don't like is their debt load.

I had 53 shares in webull that I sold at $4, because I didn't want to bother with having just a few shares there. The rest are in Robinhood, which I'm holding for buyout. Only 1200 shares, but I can be happy with a $5-10k profit wherever it ends up.

Unreal. This has to be one of the most amazing threads I've ever been a part of. All of the analysis, shared information, drama, and good fortune over almost nine months. It might even be a bigger story then the stock. Probably even a few new millionaires in the making as a direct result.

Simply outstanding work.
