Sex in the Back of My Tesla

Actually, it was like a month ago, I invested $1 million into Tesla. The second I invested it, the next day it had its worst reporting day of all of its, all of its time, and it dropped a lot by like $80,000. I invested a million, so when the stock drops even a little bit, it's a lot of money. And so I had to wait. Fast forward a month later, which was like 3, 4 days ago, it, it finally went above what I bought it for., and I thought to myself, it's been in the lower region for most of the time. So I have a feeling I should sell now, wait for it to drop again, and then buy back. Right. So I'm like, okay, it's over what I bought it for. So I went ahead and I sold it. I sold all my million shares. And, um, this is my update. I sold, I sold the Tesla stock and I made, I made, I mean, I made nothing off it. I made $7,000. And then, um, and then it, I was waiting for it to drop so I can buy it back. Fun fact, the day after I sold it, Tesla had one of its best days in the last couple months. And I mean, if I would have kept it for one more day, I would have made $55,000.
