BlackRock may have raked in $2.4 bln on GameStop's retail-driven stock frenzy
When will incels learn Chad always wins? Just lmao @ Reddit. You sure showed Wall Street!

Michael Burry also made around $270 million. I am sure he is really sad now and will never do shorts again!

LMAO! WSB going through the 5 stages of grief, hitting full cult status:

Republicans are weak men who pretend to be strong

Democrats are strong men who pretend to be weak

The little guys at wall street bets really thought they were the ones driving up the stock. lmao most delusional group ever. They were used like useful idiots. But can you really expect from a group that refers to themselves as "retarded autists"?

Whoever didn't predict that once the big players pulled their money out the stock would tank is crazy.

Wow blindly pumping a stock helps the smart money and hurts the dumb money? Who could predicted this?

Spoiler!

Made 22k USD, but was up about 65k USD at one point. Momentum was great and $1000 a share was reachable before the massive market manipulation started on Thursday with Robinhood and other chit tier brokers banning buying GME and the media frenzy (CNBC and the like) manipulating and spreading lies and FUD. It was a great run never seen anything like it before. RIP to everyone who lost on this trade, hope u make it back

It sounds like a lot but that’s literal peanuts for black rock since they manage nearly 7 TRILLION worth of assets

Chit... I’m glad I didn’t touch GME. I mean, I fell for AMC but I only bought 10 shares. Never trusting WSB again.

Someone here posted a link to a sunredsit that was like wsb regret posts, so many people threw away money trying to get on a hype train. I'm so glad I sat this one out, by the time I caught on I would have been one of those suckers buying too late and losing money.

The expense ratio is 0.14%. Probably not worth selling and realizing capital gains just to exit the fund.

Pro tip: Never buy into a stock that goes up like 10,000% in a few weeks time.

Even those people who bought in at 20-40$ were risking it. Anybody who bought in at $100-300 are dumb mother****ers who deserve to lose their money
Kindness is all that matters in life

Chamath is a narcissist disguising himself as a populist. He will say or do anything as long as he thinks it will gain him public support. I expect him to announce his run for president in the next 8 years.

Imagine shorting over $400.
Eat in a deficit to lose weight.
Hit your protein and fat minimums to stay healthy and keep your gainz.
Lift heavy and do HIIT to look and feel awesome.
Use the internet to learn why you should do these things and how to do these things.

What do you care about Melvin? I bet you never even heard of them a month ago.

BTW Melvin losing $2bn means nothing if the other hedge funds picked up $7 bn.

dude, as soon as it hit the news and millions started flocking to the reddit it was OVER, lol at anyone who bought after the rats came in. The original guys probably sold at 300 and became millionaires.
