CCFCN: Pay Attention to Meme Stocks and NFTs ~ Advice from Reddit Founder

This is so weird. Just yesterday I was chatting with an online friend saying that I did not really like memes. This morning I wake up and see this article: **"Generation Coming Up Has More Fundamental Understanding Of Markets": Reddit Founder Alexis Ohanian On Meme Stocks And NFTs | Benzinga** https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/21/08/22494563/generation-coming-up-has-more-fundamental-understanding-of-markets-reddit-founder-alexis-o The moral of my story is: *Just because you don't like something, that doesn't mean that you should ignore it. You might be missing out. (I also don't like Reddit very much.)* File this under: Things that make you go ... *Hmmm ...*🤔? 🌝 🌝

This article's title caught my attention for 3 reasons. I am trying to keep up with the evolution of NFTs (non-fungible tokens); I had no idea there was such a thing as “meme stocks”; I do keep up with women in sports; especially the Olympians. https://joiedevivre-magazine.blogspot.com/2019/03/women-in-sports-history.html Quoting some highlights from this article: *“Ohanian On Meme Stocks: Reddit, which was founded by Alexis Ohanian, is now valued at $10 billion in a new funding round announced by the company.* *Reddit has become a go-to place for trading ideas for investors with the WallStreetBets subreddit now actively tracked for social sentiment. …* *“I’ve invested big in women’s sports, but the rise of NFTs and trading card boom is going to be HUGE for women’s sports,” Ohanian said.  ...”*

Uh huh. Good investing tips! Another tip? **Benzinga.com** is an excellent go-to site for information about cryptocurrrency, FOREX, and other financial topics.
