It wasn't always tough. I tried day-trading occassionally 1990s and made money but everyone did. The overall market was trending up nearly the whole decade so you had to really suck at it to lose money.

Today, you have to be linked in to social media news trends to get the edges, especially with this president swinging the markets with every tweet.

If you're not plugged into the information channels, then you have to be a politician with insider information to capitalize on the swings, and every one of them does it.

buy the good ole standby's and watch your money grow in the long run

i find quick trading/day trading in the market just another form of gambling and, like gambling, i win some and lose some

Very bullish. Tesla is crushing it on all fronts.
Shame on Tesla, they don't care about the employees health.

Protect our Spodumene!!!!

Health Risks (Main Concern: Dust)
  • Respiratory Damage: Inhaling fine spodumene dust, especially respirable crystalline silica (quartz) present in it, can lead to silicosis, a serious and progressive lung disease, as well as coughing, shortness of breath, and inflammation.
  • Irritation: Direct contact with dust irritates skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.
  • Ingestion: Large amounts can cause gastrointestinal issues.
Environmental & Mining Concerns
  • Air Pollution: Mining and processing release particulate matter (PM2.5) and pollutants (NOx, SO2) from machinery, harming air quality and communities.
  • Water Contamination: Processing involves chemicals, potentially affecting local water resources, and tailings (waste) can leach contaminants.
  • Waste & Emissions: Higher grade ores reduce waste, but overall, mining generates mine waste and greenhouse gases (CO2).
Mitigation & Safety
  • Control Dust: Wear NIOSH-approved respirators, safety glasses, and protective clothing; use wet methods for cleanup.
  • Process Carefully: Proper beneficiation (processing) reduces environmental burdens.
  • Manage Shipping: Risks like liquefaction during transport are managed with proper moisture content and cargo assessment.
In Summary
Spodumene is crucial for lithium, but its use isn't without drawbacks; risks are manageable with proper industrial hygiene and environmental controls, but poor practices can lead to severe health problems and ecological damage, making responsible mining and handling essential

I do not care about the money,. I am not motivated by $ Diggity aka the new dad, I care about mother earth and preserving the environment. Spodumene must be protected. Shame on Elon.
I may trim other positions this year to get even more Tesla.

Illini this could be your opportunity to get those Rolex watches you’ve been dreaming about, in a couple of years. Don’t sleep.
