Yes, it looks like you're taking advantage of a deficiency instead of a long-term strategy. However, certain public figures tend to have a huge toll on people, and there's something we can do about it. Some of these mistakes last longer than a few hours but overall yes, you have to be quick about it.

Aha, I haven't considered using options instead of buying stocks directly. I'm less inclined to use that mechanism, for now.

I agree, the investments should be small sums, just to see if it takes off.

Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment Thomas!
