Today will be interesting. Robinhooders can't even buy anymore. This may be the ultimate test to see just how strong our hands are. Can we survive a potentially bloody thursday?

What donโ€™t you understand?

You get locked in your house.

Your business gets shut down.

You get treated like a slave.

Amazon & Costco can stay open. Not you.

Hedge funds can make a fortune. Not you.

Has the message ever been more clear what the elites think of us?




They have just rigged the market in plain sight, and they donโ€™t even care that we know.




reddit users buy a stock = stopped in a day

banks gamble away the whole economy = bailed out




They can only control us because we use their currency.

This is actually glorious!

They've shown everyone, without any doubt, that the system is rigged.

This is the part that makes me cheer for hedge funds losing. Even the winning hedge funds are doing nothing but trying to manipulate stock prices short term. So a successful Hedge "steals" money from the market that comes out of someones pocket. And the unsuccessful ones are still getting paid to try. Just another of many wasteful ways large sums of money are spent.

No they didnโ€™t Fraudcostanza

Stop playing make believe that youโ€™re a rich guy investing. People like that donโ€™t do cash giveaway threads and then delete them when a mod finds out the person they โ€œrandomly selectedโ€ was their own alt.

Iโ€™m just waiting for my E*TRADE application/deposit to get approved which will probably take another day or 2. If thereโ€™s a dip due to this, Iโ€™ll be jumping back in to support. (Responsibly of course, at a low amount that Iโ€™m comfortable with losing).

It took fewer than 48 hours for the entire system to move against Reddit stock traders - ordinary Americans, in order to protect billionaires.




I hope my American friends are now realizing that this is beyond the left vs right divide. This really is the 99% vs the 1%.

Any other narrative is a 'divide and conquer' propaganda, or a blue pill perspective. If left and right wing populists temporarily put aside their difference, the 'elite' don't stand a chance.

You don't have to be a pro, dude.

In 07/08 there was a global economic meltdown. Only approx 20 economists are on public record predicting it (I hunted around for who predicted it post meltdown, and it was agreed from a variety of sources only about 20 did). That is an appalling number, and shows how poor their education/models are.

What is even worse is that some of the people who were on public record (Peter Schiff, Steve Keen, Noureil Roubini) then became economic doomsday shills, and they were shown to be wrong.

Economics is a field that I don't personally respect much after seeing that fiasco unfold (I followed it closely post 07/08, and became disillusioned with the field post 2012 when I realized too many of them were not the experts that they pretended to be).

Though, I do listen to macroeconomics investors.
Cool..It appears you know far more than I do.

My gut instinct is that it isnt wise to screw with a market and economy that is literally vaporware at this point. In my personal opinion there is no way the market should be this strong (inflated) with half the businesses closed down and 1/2 the companies not making money due to Covid.

In as much as it "cool" to eat the rich (who have been eating us for generations) we could be playing with fire....and I REALLY dont want to stand in a food line because a bunch of redditors kicked off a free fall.

Absolutely glorious to watch

Spoiler!
Lol,

If we know anything people conditioned that they can't lose go ape **** when they do. It's like the emotional vomit when a hot chick gets checked by someone. I would pay money to watch those hedge funds guys reactions when they realized what was happening.

Are we not acknowledging that hedge fund clients are typically large institutional investors? Corporations and chit like pension funds, labour unions, government worker groups, etc

Short squeezing these hedge funds is very likely short squeezing ordinary Americans whose money has been pooled together and managed by these funds


But I guess if the intent is to screw over the boomer, as so many of these WSBers claim on message boards, then I guess it makes sense to screw over the pension funds and unions

They done goofed.

If this things reverses in favour of the funds, then these brokes will not get away with this.

This would be the biggest provocation of internet autists and 4chaners in history. It will not end well for them.
Never take it personal, even when it is.

Dunno who knows but a lot of these trading companies sell their data on what your trades are as their clients to these same hedge funds so they can use that info to strategise against, thats why they have these low commission inducements, they want your trading info to sell, they dont care about you making money.
