This week’s best investing tweet:

Interesting to see a few of today’s massive winners were also big winners in 1999. Huge returns in 1999 for stocks like $SNDK and $GLW (not listed below) followed by a crash and then 25 years of mostly sideways returns, only to rise like a phoenix again in the past year https://t.co/ZBrvPHuEXH
