/r/wsb autists taking on a wallstreet hedgefund. Elon musk involved as always / wallstreetbets / gamestop - Gamergate 2: financial boogaloo

It should really go without saying that the fund manager is separate from the fund's shareholders. Anyone who thinks "lawl hedgie rekt," well yes, the fund manager will face consequences, but it's not his $4 billion wiped out, its probably pensioners. Here's a clue: anytime you think that you, a common person, are getting one over on the elites, it's actually some other common person getting fucked.

iirc isn't the story that this literally has only seven clients?

Ho the line niggas! Do not sell!!!

 

[Plague Dog]

So when exactly does this end? When do they actually have to buy gme, Bb, etc. Back? I'd rather not lose my $.

We don't negotiate with terrorists or hostage-takers.

Robinhood is the only app that I know that isn't fucking with people investing.

The CEO did an interview today and was basically asked why he's not fucking with it. He said they've got triggers in place to take care of problems, but this isn't one.

I know that if this triggers a proper 1930s style depression, then I'm fucked, since I'm living in a developing country. But it would be an honour to see history live.

I feel like Doctor Strangelove. I love the bomb, fellas.

If a depression happens now America could split in two... or twelve countries.

LOL, my crypto started going up as soon as after-hours trading halted and the autists turned their attention back to it.

it really is herding cats

Even better: force funds in derivatives positions to take delivery of thousands of barrels of oil or whatever when those contracts come due and they're still holding them. Trading floor's closed, we didn't know where else to put all this fucking grain

This is much better than the gold/silver thing, despite what everyone said the price of gold has not yet been affected by fiat in the way ZeroHedge proclaims it will EVERY, SINGLE. DAY

So we had the capitol protests and now we are having capital protests.

Correct, those "poor plebian pensions are being ransacked!" where all smokes and mirrors to make the fatcats look like victims

Now THIS is how you Occupy Wall Street, take note, lazy hippies from a decade ago.

Yeah. It's funny on its face, but there's an underlying anger at how the government will scramble to back these big guys, while leaving the average person paying the bill.

We just spent 4 years in a reality TV star bigly presidency promising to save us and doing nothing., Then the next one comes along and eliminates the United States border in the first 3 days.

I have no future, this country is a joke, and the least it can do is make me laugh sometimes.

We are basically at riding the nuke levels now.

Posting the excellent Simpsons version of it.

Expect it has been or in the progress of. 7 bil. is still money and a lotta money to kill for.

He does individuals more than a whole event.

Deep Blue was an episode where several individuals (and a corporation) were protagonists in an extraordinary event, being Deep Blue's defeat of Garry Kasparov. I could see a similar approach being taken here; viz. WSB's head janny and Melvin Capital's head cocksucker being the individual protagonists in a similarly unprecedented event.

On Friday, the weekly short sellers will be forced to buy. On Monday, the monthly short sellers will be forced to buy. You can pick either of those days or hold even longer like some are calling for.
