I have never touched the stock, but what I found interesting was this article linked in the above: > **[GameStop's surge could be a big win for Michael Burry of 'The Big Short'](https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/25/gamestops-surge-could-be-a-big-win-for-michael-burry-of-the-big-short.html)** > > One of the hedge fund managers from "The Big Short" went long on GameStop in 2019. 😅 ---

Tesla is clearly overpriced, looking at the fundamentals. The trouble, as with any innovative tech company, is that it _could_ deliver crazy returns, so people get sucked in. It doesn’t help that the media hypes it up too. For anyone not a hedge fund manager, stick to tracking the market IMO, it’s the Yahoo of electric vehicles 😂 ---

😬😬😬 I think the most interesting part is how their biggest profit driver isn’t actually the cars, but selling environmental credits to other companies so they don’t have to pay emission fines A really clever idea, but as these other companies start producing more elec cars themselves they surely won’t need to buy these credits any more? ---

> [@edoardomoreni](#): > > I have always avoided Crypto until yesterday. I’m still avoiding it 😅 It took me about 2 years to decide I was going to start investing, and even now I only add £50 a month into a bog-standard ETF haha For me I think I need to spend loads of time researching and learning all the details before I do anything. Although… it is tempting to just do whatever @edouard does 😂
