Product placement

SpaceX (SPCX): A company whose stock price is being discussed and traded. It ACTS as the subject of the trade, and its stock performance is the focus of the video. Removing it would change the entire context of the video.

Transcript

I'm starting to get a bunch of these videos where people are saying I told you guys not to buy the SpaceX IPO. Look what it did. I'm just forgetting the fact that it went from 135 to 225. And if you were actually a G and knew what you were doing, you flip shares by at 135 to 160 and then you buy puts. Oh, you mean like what I did? Yeah, yeah. Cuz I'm not just gonna sit here and be like, oh, told you guys SpaceX was gonna crash. SpaceX was overvalued. It is overvalued. But that's not to pretend like it didn't go from 135 all the way to 225 and you missed that entire move to the upside. And then you could have capitalized on the decline.
