You can always buy Apple at $300 now and wait for it to drop to $200 and still tell yourself that you’re “investing”….🤨🤨🤨 Or You can buy a penny stock that you know nothing about and tell yourself that you’re “trading,” so it doesn’t matter…🙄🙄🙄 I think instead of focusing on the difference between trading or investing; you should focus on the golden truth of finance: 𝟏.
