The trigger is the rumor before the merger. It never shot up after the rumor/confirmation and when the merger hit it went down. Not all spacs are winners, thats why you need to be active in a couple

More power to ya and i'm glad you're having an easy time and making great profits with your rentals, but this isn't really a pro tip. This is a very unique and VERY cheap circumstance you happened to find yourself in. It would be near impossible to find anyone worth their salt to manage 6 properties for under a 100 each in an area where rent/mortgage margins are good.

is anyone legitimately concerned about the attention that SPACs are getting now? They have increased in populairty YOY for past 3 years without the WSB-type attention but now folks are starting to talk about them on the MSM and others are getting more interested. Thoughts looking forward?

Don't use RH under any circumstances. Their UI is very slick and they make things super easy. But I can't describe to you how frustrating it is to be cockblocked by your own brokerage. Frankly, I don't even care if it was incompetence or collaboration with the hedge funds. There's no excuse for a professional company to ever pull the bullshit they pulled.

Yeah I just made my fidelity account. I still have pending transfers to RH from my bank, so when that's settled I will move the account to fidelity.
But goddamn their UI is trash. I wasn't even that impressed by RH because I just expect good UX as a baseline. Comparing it to fidelity and now I am impressed. But this isn't a delivery app so I choose not to care.

Investopedia has some decent run downs of various firms and each review has a section that tells you how that broker makes money.
A major way Robinhood makes it's money (which Fidelity does not) is called Payment for Orderflow, which means they route your trade to any market maker that pays them for the pleasure. In turn, this market maker's algo finds where your trade will make them the most money, and fills your trade at that time (computers do this in milliseconds), for their profits (usually fractions of a cent, per share, gets skimmed in the difference between the price they buy the stock before you, and the price they sell the stock to you). It's totally not front running though...since that is illegal.
