OK, I admit it, I’ve made some pretty dumb investment calls in 2020

Jeff Reeves says ‘I was wrong about Covid’s impact on the S&P 500, about marijuana stocks, about bitcoin and more’

Since 2017, I’ve made it a point to end each year on MarketWatch by recapping my predictions and investment advice. And perhaps unsurprisingly, the most amusing part for folks (including myself) is observing how off-target some of those calls were.

Like any pundit, I’d prefer to think I get more things right than wrong. Like in May, I told folks Tesla’s run was far from over. Shares are up about 300% since then. I also highlighted the growth potential of dynamic small-caps, including Celsius Holdings, which has soared 500% since my recommendation, and Overstock.com, which has jumped almost 300%.
