The owner of Cup Foods, the man who called the police officer on George Floyd, has now offered to pay funeral costs to alleviate extra stress on Floyd’s family.

“This businesses owner says he is prepared to do what he can for the family.

“We want to offer first and foremost our deepest condolences we want to offer any support whether its financially, socially, spiritually any type of support they need,”Abumayyaleh said.

Cup Food owners say video from the store, which they have been asked not to release, shows Floyd was not resisting officers.

Shop owner Mahmod Abumayaleh has been receiving death threats and hate mail daily since the brutal murder of George Floyd. Abumayaleh claims the escalation of force was not his intention, and it’s easy to believe him. Abumayaleh was a kown member of the community, as was Floyd. Abumayaleh claims to have known Floyd as a regular at Cup Foods for many years. He was never anyone he saw as a threat, However when a bill appeared to be counterfeit, he called the police to investigate.

“The staff that called police followed protocol when he identified the bill was fake. The patron was out of the establishment when the police arrived, he was outside of the establishment which normally never takes place why he was still there were not sure,” Abumayyaleh said. – CBS Minnesota

Abumayaleh and most other residents of the town believe that Floyd was following protocol himself. Most of the time a counterfeit bill is suspected, it is because the patron was unaware that the bill was fake. In a normal situation an officer would arrive, ask where the bill was obtained, take contact information, and then bring the bill into a detectives unit for further inspection. No arrest is made. Because no crime has been committed. In the case of counterfeiter bill, there there is a benefit of doubt in favor of the owner of the bill in question.

There was no reason for Floyd to run. If he didn’t print the money why would he? He is just cooperating with the process of inspecting a counterfeit bill. The fact that Floyd remained on scene shows he was likely unaware that he was in possession of a counterfeit bill.

Instead, a $20 *possibly* counterfeit bill turned into a man being chocked out and killed on a concrete curb in the bare hands of a police officer.

Abumayaleh did not expect this outcome and has been distraught since. Feeling sorrow for Floyd and for his family.

“This businesses owner says he is prepared to do what he can for the family.

Still, Abumayyaleh does not blame himself in the death at George Floyd, despite covering funeral costs.

‘”For those who say if the police hadn’t been called he would be alive how does that staff member feel about that may be rightfully so but we cannot predict the future”’ Abumayyaleh said.” – CBS Minnesota

You cannot predict the future, many try, and generally calling the police seems like a good good move when you are in a conflict/situation. And a lot of times it is. So Abumayyaleh did not expect this level of violence and escalation. BUT he is the one who called the cops. Of course he didn’t expect that outcome but technically he was a part of the butterfly effect here.

On a side note – no reason to be coming even close to killing unarmed citizens. I you cannot refrain from doing this you cannot be a cop. Even if you think an unarmed person may be dangerous, you have your mace, your taser, your night stick. Why do any handguns needs to come out?

“MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minneapolis is in the midst of a third night of unrest in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death, with protesters reportedly taking over the police department’s 3rd Precinct building late Thursday night.

Reports of the break-in came in at about 10 p.m., with helicopter footage also appearing to show a fire raging in the precinct’s parking lot.” – CBS Minnesota

*Update – 12:53 AM ET – Trump tweets out a response to the situation. As expected, using the term thug and threatening to shoot citizens is unlikely to deescalate the situation

….These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!

What started out as a peaceful protest around 11am this morning to bring awareness to the death of George Floyd turned to absolute chaotic violence by 8pm.

Around noon store owners started to close down and board up their shops. Target, Haskell’s Wine and Spirits, and JB Hudson Jewelers were reportedly the first to start this trend. As other shops noticed these actions, they began to wonder if they were under-reacting to the current situation. Before long a large majority of shops in downtown Minneapolis had closed for the day and boarded up their windows and entrances.

Jack Farrell, the CEO of Haskell’s made a statement after being identified as the first store to board up.

“We respect the protest, but if our store location gets looted or damaged, we are not sure if we’d be able to recover — especially in light of the current revenue loss due to the COVID-19 pandemic.” – Source

It seems like a reasonable enough decision to make. The protest was peaceful when they boarded up, but most protests do start peaceful before they head south. You would imagine that a lot of store owners in Baltimore during their riots had taken a similar precaution.

When stores started boarding up, tensions increased.

As a protester on the street explained to the Today’s Five team – “We can’t even be out here, you know they won’t even let us out here when we are just being peaceful man this is a peaceful protest but they are shutting down the city because we can’t even be out here. That is the problem, that is why we are out here.”

At 4pm small explosions were heard. Protestors were setting off fireworks low to the ground, aiming them at local businesses and homes.

Once the fireworks started going of the Minneapolis Police Department took action, dawning riot gear and deploying tear gas into the crowds and marching forward with riot shields.

Before long fireworks were being directly shot at the police officers who eventually retreated but still attempted to consolidate the rioting area.

By sunset Molotov cocktails were being thrown at buildings and stores. Protesting turned to looting as rioters began breaking into any windows that were not secured, and setting fire to certain establishments that looters were unable to break into. Many advocates of the BLM movement explain this change in behavior was due to the lack of respect being shown to them by local store owners.

Once gun shots were heard the Minneapolis Police Department admitted that control of the city had been completely lost.

“Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz signed an executive order Thursday afternoon to activate the National Guard to “to help protect Minnesotans’ safety and maintain peace in the wake of George Floyd’s death.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey also declared a local emergency late Thursday.” – CBS Minnesota

By 7pm there were over 30 reports of cars being flipped over and set on fire, by 9pm there were over 100 calls to the MPD about home invasions, arson, and stores being looted by large groups at gunpoint. – Source

At 9pm rioters attempted to overrun the Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct. By 10pm, they had not only successfully overrun the Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct, but they had completely set it on fire.

“Protests outside of Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct building Wednesday night turned into a fiery, deadly riot, with dozens of businesses along East Lake Street looted. At least 15 fires were intentionally set in the areas, including at an AutoZone store, a Wendy’s restaurant and an affordable housing complex that was under construction. All three completely burned down.” – Source

Through this all the MPD is in a shootout with the rioters. They are firing guns at each other, and rioters are throwing whatever weapons they have available and continuing to start as many fires as they can in the vicinity.

As of now, 12am ET, the riot is only getting worse. the Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct building, as well as many other buildings around it, are still burning and the shootout is only escalating.

Firefighters are having trouble putting out the fire due to all the violence surrounding them.

“KSTP Reporter Beth McDonough was near the scene and reports that firefighters were asking police for protection so they could battle the flames.” – KTSP

Things are out of control right now in Minneapolis. Just like in Baltimore, the police have retreated. The city is now left to rioters.

Despite all the violence, County Attorney Mike Freeman refuses to give in to the rioters.

““We’re going to investigate [Floyd’s death] as expeditiously, as thoroughly and completely as justice demands,” Freeman said. “Sometimes, that takes a little time and we ask people to be patient. We have to do this right.” – Source

Experts say the uncharacteristic aggression in the rats and the Coronavirus pandemic are related. According to affiliates of Today’s Five, An MTA worker was attacked by a pack of around 30 rats over Memorial Day Weekend.

Ryan Fischer, 35, has been an engineer and safety inspector for the MTA for over 10 years. Fischer reports the attack happened in the subway tunnel near 42nd and Lexington while he was inspecting the R line, he is unsure which station at the time he was closest to, but knows he was out alone inspecting the train line near the entrance. The attack happened on Saturday, Fischer estimates it was around 2 am.

“It was definitely late, I was doing a quick check before heading out.” Explains Fischer, “I turned the bend and with my flashlight saw at least forty or fifty rats all crawling all over each other and eating some large carcass. Seeing that caught me off guard big time.

Like we see rats all the time, but like I was definitely caught off guard because usually its one or two max and they scatter when you put the light on them, but these guys didn’t seem to notice me so I did watch for a bit.

Then I felt things crawling up my legs, there were like three or four rats climbing up the back of my legs, they were so fast too it was unreal. Before I could start running they were scratching at my neck. I turned my flashlight and there were rats literally everywhere.

There were altleast 30 of them jumping at me and latching on but I had long pants and a jacket of course so I was swiping off most of them, by the time I got out of the tunnel all but a few had retreated, kicked the last two. Never ever have I seen rats act like this.” – Fischer

Fischer only had a few minor injuries from the experience and after an examination from the hospital was released within hours. Fischer overall seems to be un-phased by it, but he is not the first to a notice a change in the behavior of NYC rats.

“The rats are becoming aggressive toward people, and toward each other,” Bobby Corrigan, an urban rodentologist who has both a master’s degree and Ph.D. in rodent pest management, said on Sunday. “They’re simply turning on each other.” – NYT

What Does Coronavirus Have To Do With Rats?

To put it simply, with everyone quarantining from Coronavirus, the rats have no garbage to eat.

“As restaurants and other businesses have closed during the coronavirus pandemic, rats may become more aggressive as they hunt for new sources of food, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned...Dr. Corrigan said there are certain colonies of rats in New York that have depended on restaurants’ nightly trash for hundreds of generations, coming out of the sewers and alleys to ravage the bags left on the streets. With the shutdown, all of that went away, leaving rats hungry and desperate.” – NYT

Why Do You Need To Worry About Rats?

Well, first of all, the CDC is literally saying to worry.

Also…

“They are hungry,” said Robert Villamil, owner of Crow Pest Control. “Rats are wild and are looking for food and trying to survive. Rodents are moving away from empty restaurants and bars where they used to find food and scurrying into residential areas.” – Source

So apparently they are migrating into residential areas. As of now this is still preliminary, there have not been any rat attacks in suburban homes. This is something the CDC and pest control agencies in each state will monitor.

“DENVER — Lyft driver kidnaps female passenger over the weekend. A local mother says her Lyft ride home turned into racial harassment and attempted kidnapping as the driver veered off the route.

The ride-share company has since fired the driver as police investigate.” – Source

Lizbeth Ligon was taking a flight from Sacramento back to Denver, where her husband and 3 kids live. Her flight was already delayed and Ligon was very anxious to see her kids who had been missing her. Ligon called a Lyft at around 8pm that night once her light landed.

She entered the car while on the phone with a business colleague, but before long she knew something was up.

“He tilted his rear-view mirror down, so it was looking down on me directly,” Ligon said. She says that made her uncomfortable but she stayed on the phone, until she says the driver gave an unprompted, racist outburst.

“He just shouted out in a very loud voice, he said, ‘You f—ing Mexican.’ And I was so stunned and I said, ‘Excuse me?’ And my friend on the phone said, ‘What did he just say?’” – Source

Shortly after this alarming outburst, the driver made an extremely sharp left across multiple lanes of traffic turning onto a side road off of Pena Boulevard. This was a road that Lizbeth Ligon was unfamiliar with and immediately she began to panic. And understandably so, such erratic and violent behavior after dropping aggressive racial slurs is clearly a dangerous situation. Unfortunately things only got worse.

According to Ligon it was pitch black and the driver had turned his headlines off as they made another turn down a second side road, this one was a dirt road with no marked street sign. Ligon tried to reason with the driver in a last attempt and was told by the driver that “the ride would end on his terms.”

“I said, ‘Where are you going? I’ve never been taken home this way. What app are you using?’” Ligon said.

Ligon says the man answered with expletives and told her the ride would end on his terms. With that, she grabbed the car door to get out.” – Source

The expletives and the racial slurs did not stop. According to the victim the driver had told her that she did not belong in the country, and if she didn’t start speaking English properly she would drive both of them into the river. The driver than stopped inches before the cliff, giving Lizbeth Ligon just enough time to escape.

“Ligon says the driver slammed on the brakes and she was finally able to get out of the car.

“He was telling me I didn’t belong in this country, telling me I didn’t know how to speak English – he was just out of control,” Ligon said. “A Lyft driver kidnaps a female passenger and on top of that it was racially motivated.

She says the driver turned off his headlights and then drove away. She called police. The Denver Police Department says this is an open and active investigation.” – Source

Lizbeth was able to escape but when she called the Denver police and they began their investigation, the news she received a few days later was scarier than she expected.

“Ligon was told by a detective the man gave a fictitious address to Lyft and is proving hard to track down. She worries he could be driving for another company. Ultimately, she hopes others pay close attention while using ride-share apps.” – Source

A Lyft driver kidnaps a female passenger, and he cannot be located.

Lyft has released an official statement regarding the incident.

“Lyft has a strict anti-discrimination policy and we are committed to maintaining an inclusive and welcoming community. The behavior described is completely at odds with our values as a company. We have permanently banned the driver from the Lyft platform, reached out to the passenger to offer our support, and reached out to law enforcement to assist with their investigation,” – Lyft

As of now it is unclear if the driver gave an incorrect address, or if he was never a driver for Lyft at all. The important take away from all of this, please everyone, check the license plate and make and model of the car picking you up. Lyft driver kidnaps a female passenger, stay safe out there folks.

Trump is afraid of stairs it is a well documented topic, it’s fact and despite the ridiculousness of it, this fear is very real.

No one broke it down quite like CNN did. Have to give them the credit for finally putting the pieces together and confirming this bizarre phobia our president has.

When this story first was released CNN caught a lot of heat. As expected. It is not easy to report on harsh truths. But this wasn’t nitpicking, this is the leader of our nation we are talking about. Back then I knew it was a huge red flag. Everyone else seemed to just brush it off, until now.

The Fact That Is Trump Afraid Of Stairs Is Now A Real Problem

Unnamed White House officials have mentioned the extra difficulties this phobia creates for Presidential aids and secret service members, especially overseas.

“Most vessels are a no-go”, explained one correspondent, “we’ve had to have lifts installed on the outside and inside of some of our carriers just for photo ops. Ladders terrify (Trump)”.

Installing extra lifts aren’t the only extra expense created Trumps fear of stairs.

One unnamed source from Washington claims booking and traveling is a nightmare. “If there is no elevator in the building, we have to relocate, and sometimes we would be unaware of this until we had arrived.”

Although it is rare, Trump is not alone with this fear.

It is called “Bathmophobia”. Literally dozens are effected each year.

But here is the thing, the reason it all becomes concerning. Most psychologists agree that one who has Bathmophobia into adulthood likely is regressing, or never progressed correctly through childhood. In fact, 80% of Bathmophobia patients are discovered to have more serious underlying mental disorders based around insecurity.

These are not traits you want in a leader. Especially one who prides himself on being “strong”. Yet he needs to hold someones hand to go down a ramp.

Suppose we should have seen this one coming. Look at his strange concern for Obama’s pace down a flight of stairs. Just watching people run down stairs gets Trump all freaked out!

So Trump being afraid of stairs is not only real, but now White House officials are confirming that it is becoming an annoyance. I guess every president has their tick.

Indeed, the tech company known for helping people find jobs, is now in the hot seat for helping upper management get out of sexual assault charges. And now there is a woman suing indeed for just that. – Law360

“The suit alleges that a male-dominated company culture rewards “bubbly women” who “succumb to the sexual advances of their male managers.” – VICE

And the actions from Indeed following the report of the incident seem to imply that may be the exact culture that is being created at the company-

“In the filing, the accuser, Taylor Gilbert, a 27-year-old senior account executive who still works at Indeed, alleges that she eventually went to HR with her complaint and that no action was taken on her behalf. Instead, she was told that the assault was likely the result of her own previous behavior, the lawsuit alleges.” – VICE

To sum up the story, the woman suing Indeed, Taylor Gilbert was hired by Indeed in 2015. She traveled from New York to Stanford for a week long training orientation. That is where she met Aaron Schwartz, who was a senior manager who worked at the company office in Austin. A man who had been flirting with Taylor and making her uncomfortable already. There are texts sent to her mom before the incident describing suggestive remarks that Schwartz was making.

According to Taylor the orientation was more of a party and included dinners and “bar hopping on Indeed’s dime”.

After everyone returned to the hotel Aaron Schwartz stayed on the elevator with Taylor until it was just them too. Taylor was drunk to the level of incapacitation at this point so her description of events is blurry. But it involves Schwartz suggesting that he walks her to her room and then forcing himself on to her. The next thing she remembers is she is underneath him and he is having sex with her. In this moment Taylor remembers telling him to stop and that she was really drunk. She repeated this multiple times.

Schwartz left the hotel room after the assault.

Taylor was shaken of course. She had a rape kit done but returned to work in New York City and decided not to bring it up to the company. A story that we have heard all too many times. Recently hired entry level worker is taken advantage of by a person in a higher power, the worker who was taken advantage of is too scared/confused/embarrassed to want to bring it up. So they bury it.

That is what Taylor tried to do.

Until a year later when Aaron Schwartz showed up in the New York City office for a visit. Taylor had a panic attack and decided then she had to tell her manager about the situation.

As mentioned above, Taylor was told her actions were likely a result of her behavior, no action was taken. And that was it.

In February of 2020, Indeed released an update on their sexual harrasment/office relationship standards and emailed it to all employees of the company:

“This year, one of the main changes relates to the Code of Conduct and romantic relationships at work. We want to ensure that decisions related to promotions, pay, discipline and evaluation, among others, are not influenced in any way by romantic relationships outside of work. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your current relationship being in violation of the Code of Conduct, please speak with your local HR Business Partner who will work with you to find a solution. Please note: this change is being enacted on a go-forward basis effective March 1, 2020. The purpose is not to discipline anyone for what occurred previously.”

So two things…

1. Why are you implying that going FORWARD pay and promotions won’t be influenced by romantic relationships? Was this something that was being condoned?

2. Why are you putting in a stipulation that any one who broke this rule in the past won’t be disciplined? It always should have been a rule! So who are you protecting? Very suspicious. There may be a lot of woman suing Indeed after this gets out and more people feel like they can speak up.

All that aside when Taylor Gilbert saw this email it told her that this company not only didn’t care about what happened, but essentially put in writing that anything that happened in the past will not be looked into.

It’s 2020 Indeed get it together. It doesn’t matter if he’s the best “Senior Account Manager” in all of Austin, why would you want to condone that behavior? Higher ups who target new entry level females are scum who you shouldn’t want in your company.

And if the moral reason isn’t enough for you, look at the current climate! Did you really think this was going to sit well with the media when it got out? Little too late now for that. Clearly there was other things going on at Indeed. But Taylor Gilbert will finally be the woman suing Indeed that can bring everything to light.

Taylor Gilbert is allegedly going through severe PTSD which has translated into numerous physical ailments including Lupus. Doctors have confirmed that all of these issues stem from the sexual assault. Since nothing can be done to change the past, I hope the outcome of this lawsuit helps Taylor Gilbert find peace.

There are assertions of a murderer pardoned by Obama all over Twitter right now. Now the left is correct in saying that this was not a direct pardon by President Obama, but upon further research into this story, why does it matter? The fact remains. Due to Obama’s actions this guy was released early from prison and went on to kill his ex-girlfriend as well as her two young children. I respect Obama, regular readers know this, but I don’t agree with refusing to call mistakes what they are. Mistakes.

Now Snopes and the rest of the leftist media are trying their hardest to uncover evidence behind Obama’s innocence on this one.

And let me get this out in the open before we go any further, I don’t think this was done with mal intent by Obama. In fact, I’m sure it was quite the opposite. Maybe saying there was a murderer pardoned by Obama is a stretch. But he F’d up, and I don’t think that should be swept under the rug just because of clever technicalities found by liberals who are too nuts to admit Obama could have made a mistake.

Here is a screenshot from the Snopes article attempting to disprove the claim:

Full Snopes Article

Now the Snopes article on Wendall Callahan and the accusation of a murderer pardoned by Obama is impressively in-depth. But there is a clear bias as off the bat you can see this is a defensive article. At no point did the tone seem to be objective, regardless of it’s accuracy. That article had an obvious mission. And even with that mission at hand, the best they could get to was a “Mostly False” tag.

When a site is trying to disprove an internet story and “Mostly False” is the most definitive answer they will confidently give, you know something is up.

Let’s start with the fact that the article is essentially saying “it’s not really true” while going into a long, detailed explanation as to why it is pretty much true.

The only point made is that he didn’t technically directly pardon Wendell Callahan. But the article also proves he was responsible for his early release.

Gotta respect the last stitch effort by Snopes to rid Obama of blame. “A February 2008 fact sheet [PDF] published by the Drug Policy Alliance showed that efforts to align sentencing for offenses involving crack and cocaine were initiated well before President Obama took office in January 2009.”

What happened to “the buck stops here”??

Obama could have stopped this at anytime. If he is going to claim the buck stops at the president’s desk, then bringing up past administrations is a weak argument. So would he take responsibility for this? If not then he is a hypocrite. If he would, then what are you even trying to defend? Maybe you would say it was an unseen effect. In the case of presidency, negligence is as much deserving of blame as cognisant errors.

Is that really the best you got Snopes?

Well it’s official. I’m not sure if it’s for publicity or his ego, but the son-of-a-governor has finally announced that he WILL do the shirtless photo shoot with GQ. After all the back and forth it’s really happening. The new young fans of Andrew Cuomo will finally get that all to personal look at America’s new favorite governor that they have been waiting for. The Andrew Cuomo photoshoot is happening. – GQ

GQ’s offer to run a photoshoot with Andrew Cuomo came after reports that the Cuomo brothers had been voted more desirable than the JONAS BROTHERS. This is a real fact. And makes it actually believable the GQ wanted Andrew Cuomo to come into their studio without a shirt on. Without that detail, none of this would make sense.

Important side note. I guess we’ll finally get the truth about those “pepperoni/nipple rings“. Does Andrew Cuomo have a nipple ring? I think that’s what we all are waiting to find out.

Apparently when the offer from GQ came in for the August edition the Cuomo administration laughed it off as a joke. Until it was revealed that they not only want Andrew Cuomo for a 3 page pull-out, they want to put him on the cover. Shirtless. With the cover of GQ on the table, Cuomo agreed. I mean how could he say no? Is it not every mans dream?

But Mario Is Out

Mario Cuomo turned down the offer to appear in the magazine shoot with his brother. Which is definitely interesting considering he should be the brother looking for magazine roles. I mean, he is like the actual famous one, right? Whatever, an Andrew Cuomo photoshoot is good enough for this country right now.

Regardless, Andrew Cuomo fanatics can expect to see the Cuomo pecs by August. The public opinion on his nips, that will be a whole different story.

We all know Andrew Cuomo is dedicated to his fight against Coronavirus as well as his constant reminders of social distancing. We see him daily in his briefings in New York. Well, now we know where he will be off camera. Back at home on the Bowflex, getting those triceps ready.

Andrew Cuomo photoshoot. On GQ. Can 2020 get weirder?

If you are living like most of the world right now, you are likely living a quiet life in quarantine. Maybe you still have your job, maybe you don’t, either way you are likely bored. And times are tough. Why not get into a little stock market trading? The stock market is currently so volatile that with just 50 bucks you could easily make a few hundred in a couple days if you make the right decisions. Currently the 3 best stocks on Robinhood are stocks that don’t require a day trading account to profit from.

Now I will clarify that these aren’t expensive stocks but they aren’t penny stocks either, these are real companies that are set to explode for their own respective reasons. And right now their stock is under $25. All of them will be $70 stocks by the end of quarantine. It’s way higher odds than DraftKings, trust me.

1. Inovio ($INO) – Currently ~ $14

Inovio is the biotechnology company that is literally going to save the world from Corona.

Just last week Inovio was an unknown lab in Pennsylvania, this morning and so far this afternoon it is currently the most popular stock on the market. The volume of buys rival that of Amazon or Tesla. The numbers are actually record-breaking.

EASILY the top of the list when it comes to best stocks on Robinhood. I’m far from the only person raving about it’s potential.

A month ago Inovio was trading for less than $4 a share. Then it was announced that they would be one of the four biotechnology labs working towards the Coronavirus vaccine. They soon started going up in value as day traders used the hype to build up momentum and short sell.

Then it was announced that Inovio would be the first lab allowed to conduct human testing for the Coronavirus vaccine. Then this happened-

THEN it was announced today that the first trials were a huge success, which lead to this-

Up 24% in one day. A Friday no less.

But this has gone past a short sellers wet dream now. This is a real stock with a lot of bull potential. Inovio has been publicly traded since 1998. For many years in the 2000’s they were regularly traded at a value between $10-$15.

The idea of Inovio becoming a huge stock (one worth $100 a share) before 2021 is a real possibility.

With the oppurtunity of press that would be created by curing Corona, you can be sure this stock will continue to climb.

2. Eldorado Resorts ($ERI) – Currently ~ $17

An unfortunately timed takeover of Caesars Entertainment coupled with the onset of the Coronavirus brought Eldorado Resorts from a stock that was holding strong at $70, to a stock that looked like it was going to fall below $5 a share.

The real crusher for Eldorado of course was the order from the Federal Government that all casinos and resorts would be closed for the unforeseeable future. As with all companies in the casino industry, if you can’t operate you can’t profit. But the story doesn’t end for Eldorado at all here. Easily one of the best stocks on Robinhood right now.

Eldorado is still going to be taking over Caesars and it will be the biggest casino and gaming business in the country.

On top of that, new stimulus packages from the Trump administration are targeted to help casinos, airlines, and cruise-lines specifically. Analysts say Eldorado will undoubtedly find it’s why back to the $60-$70 range, and could possibly make a run at being a 3 digit stock by the end of 2021.

Eldorado makes it on the list of best stocks on Robinhood due to its after-hour potential and the ability to trade your shares early in the morning when they spike without having to perform a day trade.

3. Overstock ($OSTK) – Currently ~ $10

While every company took a huge dip in share values last month, Overstock was one of the companies that was not able to retain their value during the quarantine, but increase it.

With Amazon shutting down 2-day prime delivery on all items in an effort to focus on shipping out essentials, online retailers such as Wayfair, Target, Best Buy and Overstock have tried to fill this newly opened need for quick delivery. And for the first time, they can actually compete with Amazon while their focus is elsewhere.

Companies like Wayfair and Overstock have implemented quick shipping policies on non-essential items to see actual quarterly growth from the quarantine. With so many people working from home, there are many Americans in need of non essential items such as desks, notebooks, and other home office items.

Overstock is not the only online retailer using this opening to maintain company growth, but Overstock is the only one with a stock below $25. Currently at around $10.
