This thing could find support. The retail investors have probably exhausted their 3 daytrades. So if they buy at this point, they're probably holding (overnight at least)

Pretty much this. The left and right want they same goal for different reasons.

One side hates corporations dictating what the masses are allowed to do and infringing on free trade while the other would like to stick it to wall street.

It is glorious to be quite honest.

More than 170 million shares changed hands each of the past three days, and there are only a little over 73 million shares outstanding. That's more than double its outstanding share count traded each day.-cnbc

the free trading platform has prevented redditors from buying more stock to support the price - but continues to allow them to sell to depress the value

stock price loses support and dips

News comes out that the trading platform (robinhood) is affiliated with the Hedge company losing their shirt


the wall street manipulation is so obvious even AOC can recognize it and everyone in the world is outraged

Aren't most platforms still restricting buys? No one likely had the opportunity.

dog chit is manipulated by mob as a meme

robinhood stops manipulation

mob cries, and are left holding a ginormous bag


fact of matter is, these ppl aren't traders, and have the slightest clue on what to do. they bought positions simply because of fomo/greed. traders/people with a brain bought and took their profits a long time ago. but there are idiots like dave portnoy that are telling these poor ppl to continue holding losing positions on companies like gamestop, amc and nokia.....it's sad.

WE DON'T NEED NO WATER!

My in-laws were small business owners. They had a small motel down on the Texas coast. Ran it for over 20 years, lived on the property at first until they could afford a separate residence, did almost all of the work themselves. Then when the town started improving they sold the motel to a developer and invested the largest part of their funds in a company called Energy Conversion Devices. They were paper millionaires for a minute. Now they have put what little they had left once they also sold their house into a little condo and they are scraping by on social security.
WhenEnergy Conversion Devices Inc. went bankrupt and out of business last summer, it meant the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars of shareholder value, the loss of thousands of jobs and the mothballing of factories in Auburn Hills and Greenville.

It was a devastating end to Stan Ovshinsky's vision when he founded the company in 1960, of creating energy sources that would be superior to those created by burning fossil fuels.

Butthe company's demise wasn't devastating to the hedge funds that began shorting the company's stock in 2008, when it was trading at $72 a share.

What ECD became for them, in the parlance of Wall Street, was a "Happy Meal."

*********

According to a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco in June, which is seeking class-action status, the short-selling was part of a scheme orchestrated by New York City-based Credit Suisse Securities LLC, which underwrote the public offering, and directly caused the company's demise.

The offering, said the suit, was a "fraudulent scheme to manipulate the common stock" and left ECD vulnerable to "massive and prolonged short attacks," the suit said.

The lawsuit said Credit Suisse and the lenders "manipulated the market for ECD stock by eliminating high borrowing costs that normally deter massive short-selling. The share-lending agreement allowed defendants to borrow common stock from ECD virtually for free."

Those doing a short sale are betting that the stock is going to lose value, and, boy, did ECD lose value.By the time the company filed for bankruptcy in February 2012, the suit alleges the short-selling had driven the share price to less than $1.

LET THE MOTHERF*KER BURN!

Yes, my FIL could have been more diversified and could have made a better exit. He did do a lot of research beforehand though, and actually went out and toured the company.

Yes the company was taking a beating from cheap Chinese solar panels, but they also were in a good cash position and held multiple patents w/I was told work in progress towards a couple of more potentially profitable patents.

The platforms making moves like this is probably the only thing that'll stop the regulators from straight up freezing the stocks

Volatility like this doesn't belong in stock markets. There should be risk, but not to this extent. The platforms and regulators will believe they're saving newbie retail investors from buying fukking GameStop stock at a $24billion+ valuation and then subsequently getting fleeced out of their money



This is the nature of speculating, someone will be left holding bags in the end and it'll be retail traders who have no idea what they're doing. I'm getting texts from people who NEVER talk to me about stocks, and now they're talking about GME / AMC / NOK / BB

a significant contingent of retail investors are fully aware that they stand to lose money. they know exactly what they are doing.

What happens on Friday? The hedge fund has to buy back the GME shares before market close?

Is Melvin Capital the same one shorting AMC?
