What Is It About SPACs

If there’s one thing we will remember year 2020 for, is the opportunities and crazes it instigated, generated, mandated or whatever you may call it, opportune paths created. Yes, it’s not always the COVID pandemic, which it is truly known for, nor the social unrests and the craze of USA presidential elections, but the frenzies of it all, well with regards to financial growth, is emergence of SPAC.

Double Up On AMC

Many of today’s generation could care less about voting right, instead rely on those in voting position to make rightful choices. What if you desired to have a say or vote to change the course of a company? And what if you are given the opportunity to obtain this voting power cheaply… 

Upped Stakes in Ford

In 1963 Ferrari was set to be bought by Ford. Ferrari's ego got in the way and so Ford chose rather to go another route: Develop a car to beat Ferrari. It is 2020, Ford is set out to interrupt Tesla market domination… and it doesn’t look like anything is going to stop it.

Despite the consumer reactions, investors were still amplified to cashing on Quibi’s IPO. The pandemic saw 95% of streaming platforms (YouTube, Netflix, Hulu) experienced overacted stock prices and valuations, that If Quibi were publicly traded, we would have seen one highly overrated stock price and valuation of any streaming platform ever.

And there’s perfectly one good way for that: “RPO”.

Trump Pulls A Risky Move. Market Cries.

You Shouldn't Touch Your 401(k), But..

You are likely among the many who wishes to have a million-dollar in retirement account... or perhaps what if you could live with one.. We can all agree that such will go a long way.. and such can provide an abundant level of financial security. But here is the turn of events, according to financial firms (Fidelity Investments, etc), less than 2% of retirement accounts have seven-figure balances in them. But the presence of CARES ACT penalty free-withdrawal changes everything.
