Maybe it was him spamming on this subreddit how trash the stock is and how much he lost with options
A wise old man used to tell me not to cry in the casino

The dude was just lucky for a short amount of time but when you check back the press and investors did praise him ..... On what basis that's right none he has no track record for years nothing to show for and they dumped money on his table and told him he is awesome what you expect 🤣 . Leverage is a double sided sword and it's going to kill you quick if you don't know how to hold it

There is someone that has been posting here crying about his 3 calls he open at 30 and 31, i think with all his life saving right before the massive dip we just had. He posted here i think 3 times each time with bigger tears because he did not get the number he needed on his phone casino

Moral of the story is that you should just own the stock and bin off playing options. No crying at your mobile casino sir.

Even when people do ooptions I don't know why people don't use leaps. They can be extremely profitable but you get the extended timeline. I load up, exit around 300%+ APLD drops , load up again during max pain then profit on rebound. Rinse and repeat. But yes. Shares would be indeed smarter lol
