With all the rumblings from disgruntled “professionals” at hedge funds, I wouldn’t be surprised to see regulatory crackdowns on retail traders in the very near future. It will be paraded as a “the market is too complicated, we can’t let people make their own risky decisions and lose money (and certainly not at the cost of elitist hedge funds).”
That will very quickly be followed (or in tandem more than likely) with crackdowns on retail trading social media like wallstreetbets. We will also likely see the Twitter/Facebook cabals silence retail traders to “avoid market manipulation.” Trading will be manipulated and halted to protect hedge funds from retail squeezers.
they will never in a billion years do that for a couple reasons, one: the lottery is a tax on the poor, and two: China LOVES gambling and peddles it to its own citizens extensively. It's also pushed into literally every mobile game they produce/rip off from other legit content creators.
Imagine telling the nanny government you keep all your money under a mattress.
"What the!?!? You put...!?!? How irresponsible!!! How reckless!!! That's it I'm taking all of your money right now and you're going to learn how to properly manage it!!!!!"
No shit. Our Pharma Bro did more good than harm. His investors didn't loose a penny. He never should have asked for a lock of Hillary's hair to run a DNA analysis on.
communities.win needs a wallstreetbets community ASAP.

Cue Ayn Rand’s Anti-dog-eat-dog rule..
The motor has already stopped. We are just along for the ride.
THIS TRADE CANNOT BE EXECUTED BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN DEEMED POTENTIALLY HARMFUL.
It's all over but the crying. It's a good year to learn bushcraft and farming
Truth. We're coasting downhill fast.
Get to the countryside and get self-sufficient before it all crumbles into dust.

The SEC will soon issue a rule that it's illegal to give unsolicited stock recommendations online without a securities license.
Problem solved, in their eyes.
I suspect we'll figure a way around that as well.
Could we just issue a blanket solicitation for all stock recommendations offered in good faith by members of our online stock information community?
Haha, here's some advice for nobody here: leveraged puts are a tad risky, dipshits.
Which is blatently in violation of the first amendment and the unelected lawmakers will make it without issue.
The clearnet is not a free place. Everything will need to move to darknets to continue.
Unless it’s state sponsored!

Woohoo loot boxes! Woo!
Asian people in general just love gambling. I think Japan invented the "Gacha" slot machine mechanics that China later ripped off.

Its already happening. I wasnt allowed to open a vertical spread on GME yesterday because of "unprecedented risk" or something.
AMC was also frozen.
You can now. I wanted to buy at $5 but got in at $14
Good point - I’ve been following for a bit and the stuff going on behind the scenes is infuriating.
Regulatory circuit breakers are pretty common.
Yeah but do they specifically mention the reddit sub wallstreetbets? First time Ive seen that.
The problem is I could use this information to short Robinhood stock.
But then that would become a prime candidate for this kind of activity.
It’s wild.
The real problem is, and has been the ability to short but they would never have the guts to target that kind of institutional activity.
God forbid we have an easy and ethical solution which improves the world for everyone.
I miss Robinhood crypto chatrooms
What happened?
P&d paradise
They will definitely do something. I haven't seen kvetching this intense. They’re certainly pissed off.
I reckon Reddit will be banning the community very soon.
Bring them into the .win fold. There is no financial advise they're all retarded.
“We can remain retarded longer than they can remain solvent!”

Make a Wallstreet bets dot win, go over there and spread the word before they get shut down.
Someone has already bought WallStreetBets.win so hopefully they will join in
The two communities would get along well.. almost too well. Like stick it in the butt well.
I was just wondering the other day why there was no finance page.
Id like to see a motivation/discipline page for self improvement type stuff
I think people can just request those at community.win. Can they not?
Just make one, and they will come.
Or even just a broader investing community
Yes please!!
