Play and enjoy

I have selected Tesla stock as the default option because it has had the most incredible increase in its price since januar 2020. Moreover, in august 31 the stock had an split in order to make more people available to buy it, because before that date the stock was over 2.000 US dollars. I have been following this stock since last year and that was why I chose it.
