In a special event watched by thousands, he unveiled what he calls “the boldest undertaking” he’s ever attempted — a real-money initiative that will document every trade, decision, win, and loss in pursuit of a million-dollar mission. And the results are already surprising. One early beta tester tripled her investment income in just three trades. If you missed the event, he’s republishing the message he sent to attendees right after it ended. 8/31/202310,000 shares $95,900.00 +11.1%N/A0.1 $9.59 8/15/20239,000 shares $87,570.00 -30.2%N/A0.1 $9.73 7/31/202312,900 shares $129,129.00 +67.5%N/A0.2 $10.01 7/15/20237,700 shares $76,692.00 +14.9%N/A0.1 $9.96 6/30/20236,700 shares $66,531.00 -4.3%N/A0.1 $9.93 6/15/20237,000 shares $69,475.00 +9.4%N/A0.1 $9.93 5/31/20236,400 shares $62,976.00 +12.3%N/A0.1 $9.84 5/15/20235,700 shares $57,228.00 -23.0%N/A0.1 $10.04 4/30/20237,400 shares $74,888.00 +17.5%N/A0.1 $10.12 4/15/20236,300 shares $64,638.00 -40.6%N/A0.1 $10.26 3/31/202310,600 shares $108,968.00 +381.8%N/A0.2 $10.28 3/15/20232,200 shares $22,154.00 -89.7%N/A0 $10.07 2/28/202321,300 shares $216,834.00 +184.0%N/A0.2 $10.18 2/15/20237,500 shares $78,075.00 +15.4%N/A0.1 $10.41 1/31/20236,500 shares $68,640.00 -71.2%N/A0 $10.56 1/15/202322,600 shares $234,588.00 +22.2%N/A0.2 $10.38 12/30/202218,500 shares $186,295.00 +35.0%N/A0.1 $10.07 12/15/202213,700 shares $140,425.00 +1.5%N/A0.1 $10.25 11/30/202213,500 shares $142,290.00 +237.5%N/A0.1 $10.54 11/15/20224,000 shares $39,240.00 -92.6%N/A0 $9.81 10/31/202253,800 shares $510,562.00 +20.6%N/A0.5 $9.49 10/15/202244,600 shares $433,066.00 No ChangeN/A0.5 $9.71 9/30/202236,700 shares $355,990.00 +198.4%N/A0.4 $9.70 9/15/202212,300 shares $125,952.00 +23.0%N/A0.2 $10.24 8/31/202210,000 shares $104,400.00 +8.7%N/A0.1 $10.44 8/15/20229,200 shares $102,488.00 -20.7%N/A0.1 $11.14 7/31/202211,600 shares $127,600.00 -36.3%N/A0.1 $11.00 7/15/202218,200 shares $197,288.00 -23.2%N/A0.2 $10.84 6/30/202223,700 shares $250,509.00 +172.4%N/A0.2 $10.57 6/15/20228,700 shares $91,002.00 +123.1%N/A0.1 $10.46 5/31/20223,900 shares $43,407.00 -45.8%N/A0 $11.13 5/15/20227,200 shares $76,392.00 -56.1%N/A0.1 $10.61 4/30/202216,400 shares $182,040.00 -70.0%N/A0.2 $11.10 4/15/202254,600 shares $607,698.00 -3.9%N/A0.5 $11.13 3/31/202256,800 shares $660,016.00 +96.5%N/A0.6 $11.62 3/15/202228,900 shares $338,997.00 -46.2%N/A0.3 $11.73 2/28/202253,700 shares $658,899.00 +167.2%N/A0.6 $12.27 2/15/202220,100 shares $240,396.00 -49.2%N/A0.2 $11.96 1/31/202239,600 shares $492,228.00 -4.6%N/A0.5 $12.43 1/15/202241,500 shares $539,915.00 +198.6%N/A0.5 $13.01 12/31/202113,900 shares $181,812.00 +90.4%N/A0.2 $13.08 12/15/20217,300 shares $96,506.00 +25.9%N/A0.1 $13.22 11/30/20215,800 shares $76,154.00 -85.4%N/A0.1 $13.13 11/15/202139,800 shares $532,922.00 +290.2%N/A0.6 $13.39 10/29/202110,200 shares $132,804.00 -33.8%N/A0.2 $13.02 10/15/202115,400 shares $203,896.00 -75.2%N/A0.3 $13.24 9/30/202162,100 shares $828,414.00 +57.2%N/A1.2 $13.34 9/15/202139,500 shares $541,150.00 +17.9%N/A0.8 $13.70 8/31/202133,500 shares $453,255.00 +94.8%N/A0.7 $13.53 8/13/202117,200 shares $232,888.00 +14.7%N/A0.4 $13.54Collect $7k per month from Tesla’s SECRET dividend (Ad)Tesla doesn't pay a traditional dividend....
