        I lost $300 bucks but here’s what I gained: I stuck it to the man in 2021, and I am sticking it to Ryan Cohen today.

        Even if it’s not worth it to you personally, it’s still a good deed to sell stock in a company when their CEO does something like this. Every sell sends a small message.

          A sell doesn’t happen without a buyer on the other end. It’s a wash when it comes to messaging.

            it’s not a wash, because you sell for a different price than you bought at.

              I’m not saying it’s a wash in terms of price. Instead, I’m saying it doesn’t send a message through some tally of sells for the day, because buys and sells are at a 1:1 ratio.

                Oh yeah, definitely. I didn’t mean about a tally of sells.
