David Kretzmann

I started investing when I was 12 years old. Researching and talking stocks on @themotleyfool's discussion boards defined my years as a teen (one of the cool kids, no doubt). Things came full circle when I became a full-time Fool soon after graduating from @bereacollege.

Not everyone will understand this special image attached... sent to me by @David_Kretzmann... BUT, I suspect a select few will. 😉 It is shared 4️⃣weeks to the day that the GKC is immortalized... in Rule Breaker Investing! Preorder is open! lnk.to/rulebreakerinv…

The S&P 500 goes up: 53% of days 62% of months 74% of years 94% of decades Time turns risk into reward.

@DavidGFool @TMFRuleBreakers Incredible 10 years! Kudos to @TomGardnerFool for bringing Arista into the Everlasting Portfolio shortly after its 2014 IPO… And kudos to the team for dozens of Arista recs teamwide across multiple TMF services over the past decade… Foolish research and teamwork en fuego!

Mercy, let me not forget this one! Arista Networks with a grand #spiffypop today, and all credit goes to former @TMFRuleBreakers analyst @David_Kretzmann! Many, many Fools followed him into this one. A fine, Foolish Thursday.

Some business and investing quotes that I've saved over the years (with several repeat guests!). "The key to making money in stocks is not to get scared out of them." - Peter Lynch

Coca Cola's 1919 IPO. Offered at $40 a share. After splits, a single share at the IPO would have turned into 9,216 shares today, worth $551,208. Annual dividend payouts off that original share would total $16,773. $KO

@WilyLewis Congrats!!!

🧐 $U

Your reaction to Apple's Vision Pro: $AAPL

@john__rosevear Similar for me. Definitely some intriguing use cases that will likely compound in the months/years ahead. Realistically will wait for the hardware to improve and the price point to come down, though.

I asked GPT-4 to write a generative program using p5.js. After a few hours of my own tweaks to the code, it’s almost ready for fxhash. Comment below with your tezos address for a reserve spot.

@pocketjanitor @SacramentoKings Count me in

ATTN: @SacramentoKings fans who are NOT Season Ticket Holders. There's like a slim chance you will get playoff tickets. If you are NOT a STH and want to go to the playoff games, please reply to this tweet. I want to start a group chat to figure something out.

Which is the biggest mistake for an investor?

Remarkable: Kings 176, Clippers 175 (2 OT). Second highest-scoring NBA game ever.

Which hurts more? A: Sell something and it doubles in three months B: Buy something and it drops 50% in three months

Light the beam! @mmcnair @SacramentoKings #sacramentoproud
