Stock Gumshoe Weekend Update

And for the rest of the week that was?

The most commented-upon piece this week was a story that flamed out quickly -- Ray Blanco was hinting at a stock he was sure would be named by Elon Musk on "Battery Day" and surge to new heights... and, well, no. That story is here if you're interested.

After that I saw the "Private Cannabis Deal on the Vegas Strip" pitch recirculating, with some "gotta get in now!" language... so I thought I'd check in and see if the story has changed since we covered it a few months ago (spoilier alert: it has) -- that story is here.

Thursday brought a look at Marc Lichtenfeld's "great real estate redo of 2020," which is basically his argument that real estate invesmtents will come roaring back like they did after the 2009 crash... and that his three favorite REITs are bound to be winners, you can see the Thinkolator answers on that one here.

Finally it was time for the Friday File, with all my musings about comings and goings in the Real Money Portfolio, the state of the market going into the elections, and plenty of updates on stocks like Roku, Unity Software, Stitch Fix and Hipgnosis... though we do also get a look at SPACs and a teaser solution about a Motley Fool 5G pitch in for you, as I answer some more reader questions... just click below for all of that...
