I'm not on either side.

The stock market exists for large companies to raise funds via capital investment.

Investors choose to invest in these companies based on the present value of risk adjusted forward looking forecasts of these companies.

Everything else is a preversion.

Hedge funds are a perversion
Day Traders are a perversion
Robinhood is a perversion

People can toss around labels and tell themselves all kinds of stories to make themselves feel good.

"Wall Street" is Boomers, and GenX and Millennials all. And many of those "Boomers" know how to make a lot of money off everyone. They've been doing it longer than these Redditors have been alive.

In any event, lots of times when Wall Street is "behind" on something it's simply that it's too small to care about, and much more money to be made elsewhere. These aren't people investing $100k at a time. It's tens of millions and billions. When there is enough money to be made, they'll be there.

When someone is called a Boomer on the internet , it doesn't literally mean that they are a Baby Boomer. It means that they are behind the times, in terms of tech and culture.

Ironically, your reply is Boomer.
In any event, lots of times when Wall Street is "behind" on something it's simply that it's too small to care about, and much more money to be made elsewhere. These aren't people investing $100k at a time. It's tens of millions and billions. When there is enough money to be made, they'll be there.
Well they were behind this time and it cost them billions. They were Boomer enough that they didn't consider that retail investors could take them for billions.

Unless you think it was planned?

Honestly, at this point I'm sure Wall Street is behind half the posts on WSB. They collectively have a lot more smarts, money, and experience manipulating the market than these kids ever will.
They may have all of this but what they cannot account for is the shear randomness of the internet no matter how much money, staff or shilling they do.

Exactly, they aren't all powerful or all knowledgeable. They never will be.

Sure. There will always be opportunities to make and lose money. The market itself is random and prone to big swings simply based on things like sentiment. Money is made and lost every day and no firm always wins. Nature of the game.

Just trying to be a voice of reason and keep a few people new to this game from losing money they can't afford to. They shouldn't be trusting anyone on WSB's any more than Wall Street itself. The original GME investors over there are using people just as much as anyone from WS does.

This isn't some magical guarantee to get rich simply because "the internet".

I think I might buy a share again if it drops below 180. The main stream news will blow this up even more and tomorrow there will be even more interest from retail investors.

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.
They rig the market by closing trading, and this moron comes along and says "these stupid retail investors don't know what's going on."

Wow, dude. Seriously? If you can't see the massive amount of corruption involved here, I don't even know what to say.
