ITCHY FINGERS: FANGDD TO SIGNAL, A RETAIL MANIA LIKE NO OTHER? Amateur retail investors have been at the front and center of the rally which followed the March 2020 COVID-19 market crash. Their stock picking choices however, often based on dubious advice from Twitter or Reddit, have been criticised as leading to bubbles in some parts of the market. And while some of those bets have paid off handily, others are likely to have handed them hefty losses. In one such instance, share price of a little-known U.S. company, Signal Advance <SIGL.PK>, soared to $7 from 70 cents -- a whopping 1,000% -- late last week with the moves widely cited to Tesla founder Elon Musk's tweet to "use Signal". While Musk was referring to a texting app which competes with the likes of Whatsapp, retail punters on platforms such as Robinhood seem to have mistaken it for a listed company that started with the word Signal -- an obscure, over-the-counter traded company whose technology is used in a range of medical applications, including cardiac rhythm management (CRM). Such trades are not uncommon. In June, a little-known Chinese online real estate company's shares jumped as much as 1,250% on Nasdaq as a part of its name had FANG -- the abbreviation for Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google. FANGDD Network <DUO.O> has since lost 94% of its value. Meanwhile, the frenzy among retail investors have also led to soaring valuations in some tech and green stocks. Investment bank Saxo pointed to a bunch of "bubble stocks", including Tesla which trades at 206 times 12-month forward earnings. That's a far cry from Daimler's 10 times forward earnings and Toyota's 16 times. With Tesla shares rising 25% YTD, Saxo says it is ringing the alarm on "bubble stocks as history suggests an ugly end to such a speculative rally". Another retail favourite, Bitcoin <BTC=BTSP> is no stranger to the "bubble" topic with the crypto currency soaring above $40,000 -- 900% jump from March lows. The ongoing euphoria has led to many markets mavens drawing comparison to the dotcom bubble.
Signal, the messaging platform, isn’t a publicly traded company, but that didn’t stop the unrelated Signal Advance from continuing its rise, surging 5,643% and pushing its market value to $3.164 billion from a mundane $55 million as of last Wednesday.

离发财擦肩而过，唉
市场敏锐度太低了，我太自责了，不然就财务自由了
是的。
好比出现新冠，某墨西哥啤酒躺枪一样。
不过这钱不好挣，今天最高71，最低7， 云里雾里，此股一年最低是3分钱！

必须的啊，很快估计就会追上TSLA了。如果TSLA没上车，signal再不上，那就怪不了别人了。
这不是上车，是坐火箭
此股可惜没有 option 交易·，像现在这价，买点 puts 是很好的买卖，可惜没有； 直接做空恐怕是借不到股票来卖，而且万一个把庄稼往死里逼那可能 hold 不住，不太合适
什么内部消息？你读新闻了么？这个公司完全是华丽的躺枪！https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/08/elon-musk-boosts-signal-app-signal-advance-stock-jumps-1100percent.html
不追高，难道追低吗？
这说明能做空有多重要，有做空机制，这种妖现象很快就纠正了。不能做空，就可能要很久才能纠正回来，割更多韭菜。
居然还有这样的
