revkevsdi Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I think it’s funny that Redditors are fucking with hedge funds. I think people would be naive to think that their actions inadvertently made over wealthy stock manipulators rich. I’m sure some people were watching this, bought into the trend and made huge profits. Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t this create and even bigger opportunity for short sellers? Once the Reddit crowd find another shiny object and GameStop goes into free fall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member BOHICA Posted January 29, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Reddit and Facebook took down these channels that was used on this hedge fund/GameStop thing.... “violated terms of service” is the reason. These average Joe’s just lost their communication channel. Edited January 29, 2021 by BOHICA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the Reddit crowd find another shiny object and GameStop goes into free fall? Yes, but short options are going for 60-80% of current stock values. Basically, people with short positions who got the stocks at $20 are getting kicked in the teeth any way you look at it. Eventually they need to deliver those stocks back to who they "borrowed" them from. That will only further drive the price, fueling the short squeeze.

It’s got it’s critics, I suppose. Most of the criticism seems to center around the agency being too aggressive and enjoying too much independence from oversight. I know you’re in the banking and lending business so I don’t know to what extent you may have experienced it’s impacts. I know she really wanted to serve as director but pretty much got blocked by the top Democratic brass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know she really wanted to serve as director but pretty much got blocked by the top Democratic brass. as i said the intentions were good, execution was terrible with rules that made no sense and many that didn't truly help consumers. Some input by the industry could have made it palatable for all but academics don't really understand nuances. The lack of oversight and selective enforcement while refusing to issue clear guidelines was terrible. You could literally ask them if this was OK or not and they would refuse to tell you and just decide when they felt like fucking with you. That is not the way to run a regulatory agency.
