Are all these trading groups scams?

Are all of these online groups where they give you signals fake?

Not sure if this is just bc I’m really getting into stocks, but I’m seeing tons and tons of trading groups everywhere, TikTok, IG, X- some of the discords are pretty massive but I’m not familiar with discord and from what I’ve read you can buy bots.

Are all of these just scams? Bunch of regards on here like me so wondering how many of you have bit the bullet and can share results lol.

Spacex another lockup period ends this week

So this week, a few hundred million more shares of spacex will unlock again. On top of that many hedge funds and companies have told the public how many shares they currently hold. Google has a stake worth more than $90 billion.

My opinion, long term this is a buy once they prove themselves with massive AI business growth, but right now the valuation makes zero sense.

I think also Google could start taking profit as I wouldn’t surprise if they want to use the profits for more capex.

Do you think this stock keeps ripping or the reckoning is coming soon, and large shareholders will sell to cash out and retail will be stuck holding the bag?

Robinhood just nuked morningstar ratings

I cancelled gold after this move because the only feature i really liked and used was the morningstar ratings because of how convenient they were and the ratings were sensible. Then i post about this on the robinhood app sub where they immediately deleted it. Super dumb move for them to remove this feature , but idk what are your guys thoughts on it?
