Appreciate the transparency!!! Curious, if you were to compare these trades using your framework prior to using the social data would any of these trades this week been different? Would they have even popped up on your screen or how much did the social data tilt the bullish/bearish thesis of each trade. Thanks for all of the insight!!

Thanks, Alex. Good questions. Most of these earnings trades wouldn't have come up on my screens either way absent social data. Without social data, I try to look for more extreme situations, like fundamentally weak companies whose shares have spiked for no reason other than they became meme stocks (as in the case of BBBY earlier this year: https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/blood-bath-and-beyond ), companies that look like they're about to go bust (as with FRC here: https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-another-bet-against-a ), and on the bullish side, I look for companies with very strong fundamentals and a macro tailwind behind them (as with the homebuilder TMHC, though I exited that one too soon: https://portfolioarmor.substack.com/p/trade-alert-another-bet-on-a-homebuilder ).
