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

when the frenzy has bled off.
That's on the assumption that it will. So, when will it, in your opinion? Because:

this is the people we're talking about, here. Not your average investor.
the prisoner's dilemma tells us
You need to do some research on the prisoner's dilemma when applied to actual people, then. Most actually don't snitch.
 
The media circus will bleed off and GME will be in the double digits by end of week tomorrow if I had to guess. There is a lot of money on the table and the prisoner's dilemma tells us that most of these Reddit people will snatch the money and run rather than be driven by ideology. I'd suspect by mid year GME will be in the 20s for stock price. Melvin and friends wont be paying interest as they'll find means to clear the short obligations through asset swaps during this time either.
Seems to me, that you should be shorting GME right now. Good luck. :)
 
People on Wall Street aren't idiots, they understood that situations would arise where the investor would be unable to return the shorted assets and made accommodations to resolve it legally. Its Reddit and the fanboys who don't seem to understand that Wall St is a reasonable environment that would rather the parties arbitrate any potential failings rather than getting the government involved.
Oh ok, that make sense.

But then why is there is a massive media plan to demonize these people? And why are they in the media crying for pity?
And....wait hold on.
Wall St is a reasonable environment
Lol nevermind, I'm not listen to the guy who's calling selling and buying share that can't feasibly exist "reasonable.'
 
I'm hoping the autists can keep holding the line against the corporate elites.

On another spergy and entirely unrelated note, I find it interesting that the big Wall Street player in this is Melvin Capital. Melvin is also the English dub name for the dorky intellectual kid in the 90's dub of Sailor Moon.

We should know by tonight how things will look, and I'm hoping the corporatists actually lose for once in their lives. Even it's just a short but massive setback.

As always, I'm still expecting them to win either way. Nothing good ever happens anymore. But if we do somehow luck out and Wall Street gets kicked in the balls, I'll happily take the win.
Melvin Capital wasn't even around in 2008 (founded in 2014); even if the "little people" bag a scalp, the hedgefunds will make sure that it won't happen again. /r/wsb will probably be shoah'd in the aftermath, though.

I've been thinking about that. Let's do a little math. So there's ~330 million citizens in the U.S. right? How many do you figure know about this? I'm asking anyone who'd like to answer that, not just you Xarpho.

Say it's thirty percent of the population. So out of the ~90 million people if it's thirty percent, how many do you think would be on the side of the people pulling the short squeeze? Again, anyone who wants to answer that please chime in.

Bullshit. The government saved their asses in 2008, pumped money into the system in 2020 to save their asses again, and now, once the GameStop situation got serious, they went into action. If it didn't matter, then why the chair-throwing, the crying, the army of shills crying about Trump and antisemitism?

There is something about this that is shaking all of them to the core.

Look I don't mean the actual people are reasonable, I'm talking about the regulatory agencies and lawmaking around it. The people on Wall St are degenerate gamblers who fuck themselves nonstop, the legal side of it is very reasonable in giving them paths to unfuck themselves. The problem stems from Wall St digging themselves into a massive fucking hole, also the 2008 issue wasn't caused by the traders themselves, it was the rating agencies conducting absolute fraud. Had the rating agencies actually been rating shit properly the degenerate gamblers doing the trades would never have had a crash. Telling the traders that the asset was AAA when it was really a VD ridden crackwhore is what fucked everything up.

As far as my opinion on the GME short crew:

But this doesn't mean that Reddit is running into a serious risk because they don't understand the law and mechanisms they're making a gamble against.
