My first ever stock purchase! Opened an Ameritrade account and bought 2 shares. I have zero trading experience but starting to get educated. Was this a dumb move this late in the game? How high -could- this thing go? And when?

Take some Market money you have and buy physical silver.
I have $1k to buy some silver. Where do I do that? Online? Locally?
Nothing wrong with online, but IMO use it to make a new friend at a local coin shop.
Been to a few. All were based and the kind of people you want to have in your SHTF network.
APMEX for Silver
Check these guys out if you want to buy online.
I use JMBullion, Money Metals and Treasure Island.
Local coin shop will probably give you the best price if you want to physically hold it. PSLV on the stock market if shares in an audited vault is enough for you.
That's what I did. Looked up "coin shop + zip" and got some American Eagles. Getting more but probably generic rounds next time instead of Eagles.
Thanks - bought 20 Eagles locally at $30. Feels great holding in your hands.
