Mr Pink is a self-proclaimed “Covid-Investor” (i.e. those who picked up learning the stock market during quarantine) based in France. He quit his full time job during the pandemic in hopes of becoming financially independent through learning to invest in the stock market. He initially grew his portfolio value trading solid, fundamentally sound, companies but got swept up in the Gamestop frenzy and proceeded to lose -$35,000 of his account in a 24 hour period. He is now on a new life path as a result pursing YouTube content creation to help others learn from his mistakes and knowledge he has gained from trading.
