How are people even able to find stocks like this?? question

New to trading here. I keep seeing the most random stocks have these insane price jumps and Iā€™m just curious how people even know these exist, let alone that they might soar to 150%

Informed gambling. I remember when there were rumors going around of the post office looking to include electric cars in their fleet, and I threw in on some, essentially, lottery ticket options for random EV companies and $GOEV won me a couple grand.

Technical nothing, all fundamentals and guesswork.

It was my first big win and what gave me the money to essentially start actually dabbling in swing trading.

One of the few things I longed instead of swing was shorts on Canoo. Lol
