I bought it cheap (like $18 i think) and proceeded to play crash up derby. The stock started to decline quicker though it was also in a downward spiral to begin with, but it got me thinking; I wonder if I had it all wrong and I should NOT smash into cars lol. I'll try manipulating the market again tonight. A bit more in-game time will tell. So far my bank investments are steadily paying off.

And you were laughing at my treasure hunting! Ha!!

I bought stock in all the airline related stuff with Trevor. I haven't checked to see if it's done anything or not.

I remember at the beginning of the game it said you could redo missions to score higher. Has anybody done this yet? Seems like it would be a good way to gain extra money.

So far I have a memorable quote from each day playing this game lol.

Tuesday:
"Don't make me run through you"!
"I got something that will run through you".
"....I'm not so sure that joke works, homey".
"....man, f@#$ you"!

Wednesday:
"F@#$ that guy! And f@#$ his deck"!

^But what all can you do to influence the market? The only thing I ever catch onto is when they toss it into conversation within the missions.

For instance; try stealing a brand name delivery truck etc. Smash it up and stocks will drop for that company but go up for competitors. Buy stock in FlyUS and run around highjacking or blowing up AirEmu aircraft. Just lucrative acts of sabotage while holding stock in the competitor.

I hold stock in TacoBomb and rob every chicken joint I come across. Roll that money back into TacoBomb and make money on both ends. Fun for me lol!

I haven't even worried about money yet. Need to start getting involved in that. Franklin is already running low on "paper"
