The previous episode was about micro, sometimes nano caps. Here there is a small in the title, micro in the description and both in the interview…

[@7d24rahulnarayansivakumar8]

Very insightful

[@WeStudyBillionaires]

Glad you think so!💡

[@blaquiere141]

Warning : I've checked hundreds of the companies this guy vouched for and most of them were just losing money and went bankrupt. He should stop trying to influence people into losing money. He's a gambler and TIP should stop doing business with this type of investor.

[@KamilMauel]

Interesting. Do you have a list of those?

[@tuomasvalta]

@@KamilMauel Check out Andreola's channel Smallcap Discoveries and take a look at the performance of companies featured there

[@asj2749]

Maybe so, but most of the tips he is saying I find useful

[@Sokrabiades]

What companies did he "vouch for"?

[@CJD-ls6uf]

Well 95% of microcaps are garbage. You have to do a lot of due diligence or you are probably going to lose money. The good ones can create massive returns, but it's not easy to find the winners. GL

[@MitchellVasovski]

paypal what a drag

[@MrFrescocotone]

Easy for funds to make money on micro stocks... that's called market manipulation 😂

[@aleydrus8067]

If you have a billion dollar fund, being able to easily make a couple of million dollars isn’t a good thing for the fund.
