In 2010 $TSLA went public at $17 share.

If you bought 100 shares at the IPO, you spent $1,700

Then the stock splits happened.
• 5-for-1 in 2020
• 3-for-1 in 2022

Your 100 shares became 1,500 shares

Today TSLA trades around $419/share.

1,500 shares × $419 = $628,500

On a $1,700 investment.
That’s a 36,900% return.

Sunday reminder for every dad out there.

You can’t pour from an empty cup.

All week you showed up. For your family. For your job. For your finances. For everyone else.

Today is not a performance. It’s maintenance.

Rest isn’t weakness. It’s how you stay in the game long enough to win it.

The market closes on Sunday for a reason.

Maybe you should too

When the President personally buys a stock AND signs a government contract with the same company — that’s worth noticing.

ServiceNow.

Trump bought $1M–$5M of NOW in Q1.

The GSA just made them the AI backbone of the federal government.

200 million government tasks a year. Already.

HE FREAKING DID IT AGAIN

DONALD TRUMP KEEPS TELLING YOU WHICH STOCKS TO BUY

HE CALLED:
$INTC AT $20 → +500%
$DELL AT $235 → +80%
$NOW AT $90 → +40%

NOW HE’S CALLING:
$IBM AT $297

“I’M SURE IT’S GONNA GO UP ALOT”

ARE YOU GOING TO MISS OUT AGAIN?

The best trades aren’t exciting when you find them. They’re obvious when you look back

Every professional investor knows $SOXX and $SMH

They’re the chip ETFs

SOXX is up 60% this year. SMH up 45%.

Impressive right?

Here’s what nobody’s talking about.

EWY — a “boring” South Korea country ETF — is up over 80% this year. Beating every major chip ETF on the board.

Why?

Samsung and SK Hynix make up over half the fund. Two companies that produce the memory chips AI can’t run without.

You didn’t have to pick the right stock. You didn’t have to time the market.

You just had to own the country that makes the chips.

Turns out the quiet kid in the back of the class was doing all the work.

I own EWY. Have for a while.

Patience wins.

Micron just had a week most stocks never have.

Up 23% in 5 days.

But here’s the fact that actually matters

Micron’s CFO said it straight: their entire 2026 memory production is already sold out.

Not almost sold out. 100% committed.

Microsoft. Google. Amazon. All scrambling to lock up supply before it even exists.

That’s not a hot stock. That’s a company with a waiting list.

Miss the run? Small position. Dollar-cost average. Hold it like you mean it.

Patience beats panic every time.

@InvestFreedom05 I’m taking B every time.
You already start with 5x more money. VOO compounds quietly for a decade. Single stocks need a miracle to keep up.
Boring wins. 🎯

"Dude, you're getting a Dell.”

The Pentagon just handed Dell a $9.7 billion contract to manage Microsoft software for the entire U.S. military.

Michael Dell pledged $6.25B to fund Trump Accounts for 25 million kids.

DELL is up ~142% YTD. The S&P? Up ~9%.

Follow the contracts. Follow the money

Micron $MU hit $1 trillion today.

UBS just called for $1,625 a share.
Too late?

Maybe

But AI needs memory like servers need power - and Micron is sold out through 2026.

Small position.
Dollar-cost average.
Be patient.

Your dad didn't get rich chasing.
Neither will you
