Adam Hamilton has won the U.S. Senate election in Kansas, defeating Republican Roger Marshall. (via CNN)

He becomes the first Democrat elected to the U.S. Senate from Kansas since 1932.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Tonight’s outcome isn’t about placing faith in Democrats or socialist principles; it’s about holding Republicans accountable for betraying their promises.

All Republicans had to do was:

1. put Americans First
2. not start another war
3. prosecute sex traffickers

BREAKING NEWS FOR DDI

This week, I accepted an offer to join the $SOFI team in the Office of the CFO. I couldn't be more thrilled and excited for the opportunity to get to work and have a real positive and tangible effect on this company, the millions of members who use its services, and the shareholders who've invested in the vision to help people get their money right.

This is a huge pivot in my career, and I can't wait for the learning and growth that's ahead of me.

It also means however, that for the foreseeable future, Data Driven Investing is going to wind down. I've loved building this, sharing my analysis, debating back and forth, and learning and interacting with everyone. It's truly been my pleasure to do so. I'll still be here, and I'll definitely be seeing everything you all post, but I won't be talking about SoFi or any other individual equities.

I start December 15, and I can't wait to roll up my sleeves, get to work, and make my footprint bigger than my foot.

FRESH HORSES WE RIDE!

If only I had put everything I had into $PLTR.

[Riley Smelley @FocusNotice]

Palantir is now the lowest it has ever been
$PLTR

[Chris Hoeger @DataDInvesting]

Nobody wanted $SOFI at $7 last summer.
Now everyone is lining up to buy at $30.

The fundamentals were always good enough to support a way higher price.

The market finally caught the vision.

I think there will be continued compounding over the long run from here.

@amitisinvesting Warren Buffett didn’t say that.

In fact, he described Trump‘s tariffs “as an act war”

@MBara85 @DataDInvesting conspiracy confirmed. $SOFI always drops for no reason

@TheOmniLiberal It’s interest free. The exact opposite of payday loans.

[Chris Hoeger @DataDInvesting]

If Noto and Levchin are 19 and 18, I can't even imagine who the top 10 are

$SOFI
$AFRM

Arizona does not vet new voucher schools.

Not even if the school or the online school “provider” has already failed, or was founded yesterday, or is operating out of a strip mall, or offers just a half hour of instruction per morning.

@DrAllyLouks As a Smelley, I find this deeply offensive. My ancestors didn’t endure centuries of olfactory oppression for this slander.

[Riley Smelley @FocusNotice]

@dido1921 @chainrassler Brooo!!!! That’s awesome!!!!!

[Riley Smelley @FocusNotice]

$SoFi is 58% of my portfolio.

3 pennies from its all time low and my conviction has never been higher.

[Riley Smelley @FocusNotice]

@SerranoReyMiami Slow down. 😅
We’ll get there, but it might not be soon

[Riley Smelley @FocusNotice]

@Chad12456863 I bet you’re happy with your SoFi position now
