FDA published draft guidance that could change how genetic medicines reach rare disease patients. Prime editing was designed for it: one platform, one delivery system Let’s get more medicines to patients in need.

I just don't trust $HOOD as a company.
They market “free trading” while selling your order flow to market makers, creating an incentive for them to profit from the trades you make.
In the latest ER - nearly 50% of revenue comes from options, crypto and event contracts, most of which is the North American young male going wild on speculative trading and sports betting!
I see a slow decline from here - there will be a backlash against gambling!
The invisible cost to every Robinhood $HOOD trade you make - their trades are not free!
- "Robinhood trades are not free"
- "When you pay for order flow, you're probably charging your customers more, and pretending to be free"
- "It's a very dishonourable, low grade way to talk"
- "Nobody should believe Robinhood's trades are free"
Translation:
Robinhood doesn’t charge commissions, but it makes money by selling your trades to market makers i.e. “payment for order flow”.
Instead, when you click Buy, Robinhood sells your order to a big trading firm (Citadel etc).
That firm executes it and pays Robinhood for sending the order.
Example:
- If the best price in the market is $10.00, but you get filled at $10.02, that 2 cents difference looks tiny…
but over thousands of trades and millions of users, that’s real money.
- You didn’t pay a commission, but you still paid in the form of a slightly higher price!
You feel like it’s free, but you get slightly worse prices on every trade!
That cost is invisible - but you're still paying it!
In addition:
Those firms (Citadel etc.) also get visibility into retail order flow.
They see what millions of small traders are doing and can position themselves more effectively to profit from you!!!
Common Sense Investing TIP:
- If a business says something is free, but earns money from your activity, it’s not free! - never forget.

Get your sh*t together @RobinhoodApp. This is the second time in a week your app hasn't worked. $SPX ran 15 points and I couldn't sell my call.
Last week I watched my $SPX put run 20 points, then had to sell it at a loss 2 hours later because your app didn't work.
I think it's time for real traders to leave this POS app.
When I contact support, they just throw their hands in the air like there's nothing they can do.
Rocket Lab $RKLB WILL hit triple digits before Christmas this year.

Members of @SemperCitiusSDA's Tranche 2 leadership team were recently at Rocket Lab's California headquarters to see T2TL-Beta in production.
Eight of 18 spacecraft are on the floor right now, in build.
Solar panels, structures, star trackers, reaction wheels, radios, flight software, avionics, launch dispenser — all built in-house.
Proliferated architectures demand production at scale. Rocket Lab is all in on SDA's mission, and the action on our floor proves it. We're proud to be delivering this.
That would be some wild shit 👀 $rklb
This explains the gator to me.
@stoke_space gets $150M to build a launch site in Cape Canaveral.

Grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the future of space. Excited to share more about this special company alongside people I admire.

It’s a beautiful day to set sail with the next pieces of Neutron flight hardware to Launch Complex 3.
Earlier today we sent Neutron’s Stage 2 and Thrust Module out of the Neutron Factory and onto a barge for transport through Chesapeake Bay to Wallops Island in Virginia.
Once it arrives, the Thrust Module will go straight onto the launch mount at LC-3 for check outs and the beginning of wider systems demonstrations including integrated fluids tests and module-to-launch-mount interface checkouts. With no strongback on the launch mount by design, Neutron’s Thrust Module is the rocket’s only physical interface to the launch pad, which this upcoming test campaign enables us to test early before the entire vehicle comes together.
I second this not only for Neutron by also mini hypersonic pads across the globe for offensive/defensive purposes. $RKLB

Prosperity and peace are imminently attainable for everyone in this country. We need merely to transcend the parties that keep us fighting each other, throw off the corporate and foreign influence on our government, and return to the principles laid out in our Constitution.
