Big investors are buying this “unlisted” stock

When the founder who sold his last company to Zillow for $120M starts a new venture, people notice. That’s why the same VCs who backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also invested in Pacaso.

Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacaso’s streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties, revamping the $1.3T vacation home market.

And it works. By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits in their operating history.

Now, after 41% YoY gross profit growth last year alone, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

August 2025 Mastermind Trading Plan & Oracle Forecast

Market Overview – August 2025

August 2025 anticipates heightened volatility following a strong market rally. Historically, August has been one of the weakest months, especially in post-election years. Investors face increased market turbulence due to major earnings reports, crucial economic data, trade policy developments, and Federal Reserve signals. Geopolitical events could introduce further unpredictability.

Investor Outlook

Investors are advised to adopt a defensive approach early in August, shifting to conservative strategies such as dividend-paying stocks, gold, silver, and defensive sectors (Healthcare, Utilities, and Consumer Staples). Mid-to-late month volatility should be actively managed through strategic hedging, given August’s historically bearish tendencies.
