Twitch streamer Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa is looking to make a hefty profit after purchasing nearly $2,000,000 of Activision-Blizzard despite the company being involved in several lawsuits.
Amouranth has become one of the biggest internet stars and has earned an incredible income through Twitch and OF success. Her wealth has even afforded her some major investment opportunities of which she frequently documents on social media.
Just recently, the streamer has purchased a gas station, a 7-Eleven, a plastic ball company, and invested over $5 million in Google.
Now, Siragusa has made one of her biggest investments yet in the form of $2m in Activision-Blizzard stock and explained why to her followers.
Amouranth buys $2M of Activision-Blizzard stock
While Activision is in the middle of numerous lawsuits alleging rampant sexism toward female employees, the company was purchased by Microsoft for $70 billion.
As the deal is in the process of going through, Amouranth took it upon herself to take advantage of the situation and explained why she decided to invest so much money.
“To be clear I am looking to capture the takeover spread,” she said. “That’s the main point. I just think it’s not a bad price even if that fails to happen.”
