Rippers Weekly Recap
This week's best and worst performers — from Tesla to GameStop
Welcome to the first installment of the Rippers Weekly Recap!
About The Rippers Weekly Recap:
Hey everyone, it’s Evan! But I’m better known on Twitter as @StockMKTNewz. If you know me, you know I tweet way too much for any sane person to track. So I thought I would narrow down my hundreds of tweets to get you caught up here in under 5 minutes!
Before we dive in, I wanted to leave a quick note here to talk about the changes on this newsletter. I really want this to be something that better embodies what I try to do over on my Twitter — inform, educate and hopefully entertain a little too. I’ve put a lot of time into Twitter and feel great about the feed I've created; however, newsletters are something completely new for me.
I’m putting in the work to master this, and I can feel it getting closer — it makes me really excited! With that in mind, I’d love any feedback you have on this newsletter. Feel free to send me a DM to either @StockMKTNewz or @BullishRippers.
