LiveStock is today from 1-2PM EST and you gotta tune in here at http://www.mogulus.com/livestock and tell your friends…and retweet it…andtell your friends to retweet it because I need 200+ live viewers to be 1% of Ashton’s live broadcast last night!
OK, so Ashton Kutcher or the actor now known as @plusk on Twitter is the 1st person, place or thing with 1 million followers on Twitter (see the dumb mocking post on TechCrunch) and you’re wondering why is this signifcant…
1. Twitter is just starting to become dominant, 33% growth in January, 55% in Feb and 131% in March added to the fact that they’re all gonna be on Oprah today means this could start to get out of hand quickly…picture a social network MLM scheme…wannabe pyramids like ACN and Melaluca should take note!
2. I love it because I’m an investor in StockTwits, which is riding the wave niiiicely, now with over 43,000 followers (please follow me HERE already, I’m only at 2,600 or so)
3. In an oldie but goodie Gawker article from 2007, I picked Ashton Kutcher as if he were a stock, saying “He came out of nowhere. He takes on smart projects. Now he’s got Demi, even though he’s got that weird thing going on with Bruce Willis. His business sense is pretty amazing for a former male model.”…Damn straight, I’d be selling that stock today after having quintupled or sextupled my investment (somebody invent people stocks already, David Bowie bond creator (yeah they’re $55 million, 8% interest real, read about em HERE), where are you?!?!
4. The fact that I know how hype works–due to my vast experience with it–and can tell which characters are better than others means besides my knack for shorting BS and manipulation, I’m also pretty good at longer term prediction games. So, when Covestor finally goes into auto-trading (follow me now to stay in the loop!), you won’t see me trading the quick stuff I do for TIMalert subscribers….nope, it’ll be more intermediate and long-term trends, such as StockTwits and Ashton Kutcher…we’ll see if I’m good as I think I am, who wants to follow me and test me out!
