Most of us were never really taught how money works — how to build wealth, make smart investments, or turn financial goals into a plan.
Somehow Stocks is here to change that.
Hosted by Devin Mistry, this is a space for people who want to understand the market, the economy, and the everyday steps to financial freedom. From saving and investing to building passive income and analyzing global trends, this show breaks down the big picture and the small habits that shape real success.
We’ll talk about the economy on both a macro and micro scale, explore tools that build wealth over time, and discuss how to approach money with intention — not fear.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned investor, this is a community built on growth, awareness, and progress.
This isn’t financial advice — it’s perspective. It’s the mindset, knowledge, and strategy that help you make smarter moves and take control of your financial future.
🎯 Somehow Stocks — mastering money, markets, and mindset together.
What's up everyone, welcome to Somehow Stocks. Somehow we trade and somehow we win.
If you're here, you care about growing your money. You actually want to trade with intention and understand the market, not just hype. I've been trading since I was 16 years old.
I started in simulated markets just learning how price action moves, and over the years I've gone through it all — the crypto surge, meme coins, NFTs, the GameStop and AMC craziness, and just recently, the Beyond short squeeze. That one’s for the history books.
Over the past nine years, I’ve really drilled into analytics and fundamentals — RSI, P/E ratios, macro indicators. They’re not just buzzwords, they’re signals. And when you understand them, you stop guessing and start trading with purpose.
I’ve taken plenty of losses — and wins — but every trade taught me something. That’s why this channel exists.
Somehow Stocks isn’t about pretending we know everything. It’s about showing up, learning, applying, and growing together with intentional traders.
I’ve leaned into options trading, and let me be real — options can humble you fast. One day you’re up, the next you’re down before lunch. But once you start mastering the Greeks, build discipline, re-strategize, and set your stop losses, it becomes strategy, not luck.
This isn’t financial advice. It’s me sharing the lessons I’ve learned the hard way. And if you stick around, we’ll go through the wins and the losses together so you can skip some of the pain I had to learn through.
Because let’s face it, there’s enough fear out there. Everywhere you turn, someone’s yelling that the economy’s collapsing or the next crash is here. But here’s the truth — long term, the market always recovers. The real question is: are you disciplined enough to stay in the game?
Any long-term investor will tell you it’s not luck. It’s about buying the dips, setting your stop losses, and taking profits when it’s time. You’ll never catch the perfect top every time, but consistency beats perfection every single time.
So what’s actually going on in the economy right now? And is it even a good time to be investing?
There are a lot of moving parts — tariffs and tension between China and the U.S., the upcoming or maybe delayed meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, interest rates set to drop this Friday, and quantum stocks finally cooling off from their run. I’ve been following RGTI, QUBT, IONQ, among others.
Then there’s the so-called AI bubble, which has been dominating the market and affecting so many stocks. We think of AMD, Nvidia, Taiwan Semiconductor, Microsoft, ASML, SoundHound AI, BigBear AI — so many companies are making deals with OpenAI. Sam Altman has his hands in almost everything, and with the level of backing they have, it’s nearly impossible for them to fail. This AI race is just getting started.
We’ve also got energy and tech earnings hitting across the board this week. Tesla missed earnings per share, dropping around 4% after hours. Alcoa met expectations and is recovering slightly. Netflix missed and dropped about 10%. These earnings ripple beyond individual companies — they affect the broader market.
Looking at SPY, it’s down about 0.5% today, which is notable considering the bull market we’ve been riding.
Now, let’s take a second to talk about gold. Gold (GLD) has been on a heater these past few months. Over the last three months, it’s up more than 20%. But recently, we saw a pullback — which was expected. Historically, gold has never gone green for 10 consecutive weeks, so this correction was overdue.
In the long term, gold isn’t going anywhere. It’s likely to keep climbing. But in the short term, a downside play could still be profitable — just know it’s volatile. I’d watch resistance levels between 375 and 360. If we dip below 360, we could see a deeper pullback.
So why is gold acting this way? China has been stockpiling gold in its reserves, while the dominance of the U.S. dollar has started to crack. A major turning point was when the U.S. froze Russia’s Treasury bills after the 2022 invasion of Ukraine — hundreds of billions of dollars. That made other countries question how safe U.S. assets really are.
Now we’re seeing diversification away from U.S. Treasuries and into tangible assets like rare earth materials and gold. There’s even talk that China might link its currency more directly to gold — money backed by something finite and real. That kind of shift is massive and will ripple through global markets.
China’s reported reserves are around 3.6 tons, but analysts believe the real number is much higher — possibly over 5 tons when accounting for state-owned banks. The numbers are staggering.
Now let’s jump into some stocks on my watchlist.
First up: OKLO — an advanced nuclear reactor tech company. Their reactor design criteria were just accepted for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. On the flip side, they have no real revenue yet and need significant funding. This is a high-risk, high-reward play that’s seen massive gains — over 430% in the past year.
Right now, it’s testing key resistance around 114–113, with support near 109–110. If it breaks below 111, that’s concerning, but a push above 122–123 could make for a short-term upside move.
Next up: HIMS — a fast-growing telehealth and wellness brand. The most recent news actually comes from the Hers side of the business, where they just launched a new menopause care platform as part of their strategy to expand into women’s health.
The stock has been volatile, with plenty of swings both ways. Watch the 47.2 level for support and 51 for a potential upside break. Below 47 could mean more downside movement.
Finally, OSCR (Oscar Health) — a tech-driven health insurance company. Strong institutional interest, but also facing regulatory and financial headwinds. The one-month chart shows higher lows forming, signaling possible breakout potential. The stock is up about 50% over the last three months and 24% year-over-year. This could be one to watch for a move back toward its all-time highs by year-end.
The most important thing to remember with all these plays: take your profits and set stop losses.
Think of it like flipping a coin. If heads, you gain 40%. If tails, you lose 30%. Would you take that bet? The answer should be yes — because over time, the math works in your favor.
Let’s say you bought Oscar at $2.82 in 2022. If you took profits at +40% and cut losses at -30%, you’d protect yourself while staying consistent. That’s risk management — maximizing returns and minimizing losses.
Sure, sometimes you’ll sell early and the stock will keep running — that’s part of the game. Other times, your stop loss will save you from a bigger drop. It’s all about discipline.
So, set your stop limits and stick to your plan.
There’s a lot more to dive into, but for now, I want to hear from you. What plays are you watching? What trends do you see shaping the market? Drop it in the comments and let’s talk.
Because at the end of the day, this isn’t about chasing meme stocks or gambling on options. It’s about making consistent, informed moves — together.
Long-term trades build wealth. Short-term plays make money.
We’re not here to chase money. We’re here to build wealth.
Let’s get after it. Let’s kill it in the market today.
Welcome to Somehow Stocks. Thank you.
