lol!



basically a lot of people are using their stimulus thing to buy stock in companies which are going bust, because hedge funds have bet on them going bust (with some crazy future banking loans that make money from nothing). so by investing in them for no reason, and accepting they will lose the money they invest, they are stopping the company going bust, screwing the bet, and costing the hedge funds billions.

It's was a demonstration of power and an expression of anger.
If nothing else, it's an object lesson about the fact that short-selling is a morally-bankrupt casino game that deserves no role in investing.

Part of the ride is watching the Wall Street roaches have to scuttle for once, while the whole exercise illustrates how ridiculous the whole concept of short selling with other's people's money is a game that shouldn't be played.

The one insane short seller who deserved to get destroyed for his use of predatory short selling tactics covered his short yesterday. Lost billions.

We've all known the stock market was rigged for a long time. The powers that be stepping in today to stop small investors from doing what hedge funds have been doing for years just proves it even more.

Speculators will crash the economy again and expect you to pick up the pieces.

i love it.

they locked buying on it, which is totally lame cos they've been manipulating the market themselves for decades. but they locked it thinking like "right, it's not going up anymore, so anyone that's bought to make money, now is your high point, sell asap!" thinking everyone would sell like mad and the price would crash back to normal.

no-one sold lol

well the majority didn't.

i just like the "cos fuck you!" aspect of it :lol:
"we like the stock!" loool

Robinhood encourages gambling like behavior with stocks but never thought everyone would bet on the same thing
They built an app to be used as a slot machine but then don’t have the money to be the casino

Just occupy Wallstreet again, but they did it right this time. And it's people from both sides of the political aisles who all hate Wallstreet.
