social investing

Social investing, a practice embraced by many, carries inherent risks—especially for individuals lacking financial education. The allure of quick gains can lead to perilous outcomes when investors heed misguided recommendations and invest in assets such as meme stocks, penny stocks, or cryptocurrencies like GameStop, AMC, or Bitcoin, right before a market sell-off. This scenario underscores the importance of conducting thorough research and exercising caution when navigating the dynamic world of social investing.
