What other tech stock to consider?
- Thread starter Sanny
- Start date
I thought about it, but I need the cash right now. We had a water leak and the insurance company screwed us over. I'm having to pay for a lot of the repairs out of pocket.

SEC expands investigation into Donald Trump’s Truth Social
Focus is on company’s communications with Digital World Acquisition Corp.
Some personal learnings about investing in private startups:
1. Your money is locked up for ~3-10 years with angel investments
2. It's more work than you expect with CEO's and Founders to help them get off the ground and grow
3. There's a lot of legalese you really have to pay attention to and have to hire a lawyer for
4. Angel Investing is, now, swamped with just a ton of people and its become more political than in the past
All of these reasons got me to get out of it after 3 investments. There's no expectation to ever go back to it.

To point 2 - egos get in the way there a TON. A prior company I invested in and was on the advisory board . . . the CEO just could NOT stop micromanaging everything. Made progress just grind down to glacial speeds. Sadly, I never expect to see a return on that investment.
Honestly, they're all sunk cost investments at this point. Hope they make it into something and believe in the founding teams, but it's a tough slog.

I expect it will go through.
Just to clarify, the vote is to increase the maximum share count to 6 Billion which enables the board to undertake a 3:1 split. The vote is not for the split itself.What is the general investor consensus on the upcoming vote for the Tesla stock split?

Not sure what the Tesla split has to do with "other tech stocks to consider". Did the OP post in the wrong thread by mistake?

Just got a Fidelity IPO notice for this Ivanhoe operation that's looking to mine inside the US for the renewables/EV transition. Not a tech company itself, but the raw materials for EV/storage tech.....

Never mind, I changed my mind. It'd be great to get back into it with a LLC sometime down the line. It's a lot of fun!
Polestar (PSNY) options are interesting now, you can get 4:1 leverage on the January '23 7.50s, no time value premium (I actually bought some at a discount today). If you think they win the race over Rivian, Lucid, Fisker, Nio, etc. to be baby TSLA, not a bad time to join.
Yeah, but you are betting on a macro turnaround in the next six months, esp. for automotive stocks. The leverage is nice, but the time factor makes this risky. You aren’t betting on Polestar the company so much as the market.
