Twitter is a powerful online service that investors/traders can use to monitor the news and gauge market sentiment.

Although you have to be careful as the credibility of news sources and the prevalence of “fake news” has to be questioned before contacting your broker.

Certain “influencers” on the platform always seem to move markets when providing their opinion. The two we highlight in this week’s episode are Cassandra @michaeljburry (the traders who shorted the US housing market before anyone else saw the bubble) and The DogeFather @elonmusk.

People generally listen to what both gentlemen have to say as they are both very successful in what they do, and usually, their Tweets influence trends in markets.

Most famously, Elon Musk tweeted he would take Tesla private, and he had the cash to repurchase the shares to facilitate such a transaction. Although not true, the tweet sent Tesla’s stock price skyrocketing towards the $420 target.

Musk has now turned his tweeting attention to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. He tweeted in February that Tesla purchased $1.5 billion worth of crypto to hold as a reserve asset, and Tesla would accept BTC payments. These tweets rose Bitcoin’s price by more than 10%, hitting a new all-time high.

Watch the full show as we dissect the twitter phenomena, as well as commodity prices, interest rates, and inflation.
