By the New York Post's reckoning, yesterday's trading netted the entertainment mogul somewhere in the neighborhood of $8.7 million.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent remains on Twitter, encouraging his millions of followers to continue the conversation he's started. "I only want entrepreneurs on my time line. We gonna talk money trade ideas and make it big," he tweets. Looks like he's taking a page out of the Stockpickr or StockTwits playbook.

He's also getting a little more defiant, retweeting one fan's comment: "those who dont take your ventures serious are silly haters & must be poor business people." This is a departure from last night's broadcast, during which he urged investor caution.

We're still a little concerned about the fate of H & H Imports, which has been losing money since it started doing business. We put in a call to H & H for comment, whereupon a secretary told The Observer "Everyone's in a meeting right now. Things are a little crazy." We will, of course, update when we hear more.

In a recent tweet, 50 cent cautions his followers, "I own HNHI stock thoughts on it are my opinion. Talk to financial advisor about it." Also: "HNHI is the right investment for me it may or may not be right for u! Do ur homework." This follows the stock's meteoric rise today and a likely profit for 50 Cent, who along with G-Unit Brands made a $750,000 investment in the company last November. 

Here's the website for TV Goods, whose parent company is H & H Imports. From the "About Us" section:

H&H Imports is the parent company for TVGoods, Inc., a Direct Response marketing organization. The company identifies, develops, markets, and distributes consumer products for global distribution. Our strategy employs three primary channels: Direct Response Television (Infomercials), Television Shopping Networks and Retail Outlets. TVGoods offers entrepreneurs a turnkey solution enabling entrepreneurs to introduce products to the consumer market.

50 Cent's caveats come on top of several caution-inducing attributes of the company, including a loan to the company from its CEO, Steve Rogai, and a loss of $1.3 million in the most recent quarter. The company's chairman and founder, Kevin Harrington, is an infomercial pioneer and "an investor 'Shark' on the ABC television series Shark Tank," according to H & H's website. 

Of additional note: 50 Cent appeared on CNBC Friday to talk about investments, and mentioned a new line of headphones he's endorsing. A putative press release notes the increase in H & H's share price thusly:

The Company that had acquired worldwide marketing rights for its new product line believed to be designed by 50 and engineered by Sleek and will be the first headphones ever to offer 'Wireless Hybrid' technology with military-grade metals. The endorsement will be personally carried out by Curtis, having an ownership interest in Sleek, through his company G-unit.

One more Tweet from 50 Cent around the time of his stock discussions: "You can lead a horse to water but you force it to drink. lol."
