Robinhood addiction, Cathie Wood talks Tesla and GameStop: Insider Investing

Your weekly outlook
The past week saw the market zeitgeist shift somewhat away from the pesky day-trading rascals on Reddit and towards bitcoin, which repeatedly set new records. The red-hot cryptocurrency got a coveted co-sign from Tesla, which said that it bought $1.5 billion worth and would start accepting it as payment.
It then surged even more to all-time highs after further adoption from the likes of Mastercard and BNY Mellon. With bitcoin now back at record highs, some age-old questions will persist over the coming weeks: Can increasingly widespread adoption continue to offset concerns the coin's price is overextended? And who else will follow the lead of these high-profile companies?

Goldman Sachs says Americans have added $1 trillion to money market mutual funds in the pandemic.
That means retail traders' influence on the market should only grow in the months ahead.
Goldman says that money could continue to blow up big short bets, just like it did with GameStop.
The GameStop short squeeze and stock bonanza might have felt like a once-a-decade or once-in-a-lifetime event, but Goldman Sachs says it could happen again, and soon.
Even if there were many ways the social media-fueled frenzy in GameStop and AMC Networks and Bed Bath & Beyond was unique, many of its most notable ingredients are still there, according to Goldman Sachs. Chief among them are these two: There are a lot of big short bets on the market, and retail investors still have a ton of money.

Stock picks: 22 high conviction small-cap stock ideas for 2021, JP Morgan

JP Morgan equity analysts are saying 2021 will remain 'a stockpickers paradise' in a research note.
The analysts are bullish on smid-cap stocks based on their analysis of the state of the market.
We list the firm's top 22 investment ideas in the small- and mid-cap space.
At the start of the year, JPMorgan equity analysts advised investors there would still be upside opportunities in the market, despite what could be a "rocky" first quarter with COVID-19.
What transpired was a very strong two-month rally that built on the soaring gains in the small- and mid-cap market over the previous year. The Russell 2000 index has gained nearly 16% so far in 2020, compared with a 4.5% gain in the S&P 500.

Stock market bubble: Ruffer's bitcoin strategy, SPAC fears, Steve Russell

This speculation could have significant knock-on effects.
"These are all what I would describe as typical signs of excess and definitely things that make us take a cautious view on the overall market," Russell said. "What's difficult to really put across is the fact that this excess is pretty much contained into large, but specific, pockets of the market."
Though the overall index could fall, it doesn't necessarily mean everything will go down in value, Russell said.
Russell is still investing in traditional businesses, such as retail, energy and financial companies, while avoiding momentum stocks, the FAANGs, as well as any business where investors are being asked to pay high multiples for future profits.

THOMAS LOHNES/Getty
GameStop and other heavily shorted stocks have made enormous gains recently.
Two elements fueling GameStop's rise were huge short bets against the stock and a turnaround case for its business.

If you've been away from the stock market a week or so, here's what you missed: There are no stocks anymore. They're called "stonks" now, and they always go up.
All right, you missed more than that. But that's one takeaway from the megarallies in heavily shorted stocks like GameStop, Bed Bath & Beyond, and AMC Entertainment. There are also lessons about understanding risk, social media, market dynamics, the technical aspects of stocks, and the rules of the road for giant, average, and small-money investors.
