OT: Stock trading

[husky429]

Idk why you guys are still in the boring old stock market. My Pokemon collection is up 330% this year. Bitcoin who?

I'm much rather get 11% a year in the SP500 than be a dork. Worth every penny.

S&P ain't doing this. 1150% return since I bought it

I thought I made a killing yesterday.

The culprit was COKE

I was trying to figure out where this profit came from, so I did a deep dive (took about 5 minutes)

Coke announced a 10 for 1 stock split. E*TRADE increased the number of stocks I owned from 30 to 300. However, they didn't decrease the per share the price from approximately $ 1,114 to $ 111. Oh well, was a high while it lasted

I think the price is right, I don't own the additional shares yet. The split goes into effect May 27th.

I wonder if anyone sold the extra shares once they posted? Unless the shares were added after the market closed, I'm sure somebody did (or would have tried to).
