  • I believe there’s a pretty low chance of any meltdowns or nuclear events, due to so many fail-safes.

    Thanks for sharing your opinion. But wouldn’t it still be a serious safety hazard for the local population through contaminated air/water?

    And if no radioactive material is set free, isn’t it still available to keep producing nuclear weapons? According to a German article Iran is estimated to already have sufficient Uranium for 15 nuclear bombs.

    In my simple mind that means you either have to directly destroy that material (and potentially expose millions of people to it) or if you just destroy the production facilities, you can only slow down the enrichment of further material without impacting the current capabilities. Do I oversee something?

    IMHO CFDs are nothing private investors should ever touch. It’s like taking a loan to buy and sell stocks and as said - the market is not predictable. Institutional investors have far better and way earlier insights than you as a private investor. You have no chance in beating them. Sure, one can be lucky, as your friend. But that’s not investing then. That’s gambling. You can as well multiply your portfolio in a casino, but for obvious reasons that is not a good idea.

    To be honest, I wouldn’t recommend the stock market to people who are worried about the next two months of groceries. Short term trading for non-institutional investors is more gambling than investment. The market doesn’t follow any predictable rules and you can easily lose just as much as you can win.

    If you want to invest in stocks as a private person, you should choose a widespread ETF product and not touch it for decades. With day trading you’ll definitely lose in the long term.










  • Anyone knows how that fingerprinting might have worked here? Unless you used a very specific combination of browser extensions, I can’t get my head around how it could track you… Or do they maybe use external services like Google Analytics to identify users? But even that would require that you logged in somewhere else before with that same browser.

    If you don’t have a problem with second hand, I’d recommend to check out Vinted. If you live in Germany you can also check Kleinanzeigen.

    I got several pairs of barefoot shoes in good condition there for relatively cheap.

    I had shoes from Leguano, Wildling, Merrell (US) and vivobarefoot.


  • Thanks for clarification. Still, looking at the Tesla chart similar upward/downward movements happed several times. It doesn’t appear that special to me for that stock.

    And yes, Tesla is not the same category of meme Stock as Gamestop. Still, compared to other stocks, the development of the share value is far less dependend on the operative success of the company. It feels more like a Musk stock that’s influenced by news and tweets around his person going back and forth between hype and desaster.
