What if we don't take financial advice from angry little hobbits?
Looks more like a Harry Potter goblin.
Das rayciss
What if the hobbit's sister has huge breasts?
Not gonna lie, I'd hit it.
As long as you can avoid thinking about the fact that they have the same face
bag over head. done.
"Baggins"
3-4 bags for safety bigot. Reeeee!
Isn't that what doggy-style is for?
Yeah but then you don't get to appreciate the two best things about her
I bet she's way taller though.
Is she shirtless and giving out stock advice?
I don’t think the hobbits sister has huge breasts, sorry.
Sauce on how you think she does? u/ShartMaster
Hey, his wife’s a doctor for Christ’s sake!!
Take it easy...
His wife is a doctor you know, that makes him knowledgeable in all subjects because reasons.
Why are so many people obsessed with his wife?
It's a running joke, he seems to drop that his wife is a doctor on a regular basis and it has become a meme of its own. We don't actually give a shit about his wife, which is basically the point of the joke: he needs to shut the hell up about it.
He needs to shut up about a lot of things. I'm sure he wouldn't recommend his sister, but I'd ride her to town and back.
Wow he wrote fucking nothing.
You mean making people think twice about shorting stock they don't own?
WSB has done this for their living. They're used to it.
Devil's Advocate: I doubt that he was referring to the WSB forum residents - they're day-traders who know what they're doing.
I know, here come the downvotes, but hear me out...
He was referring to the zillions of credulous people who spent yesterday and today buying as much GME as they can lay hands on, because their favorite website and cable news show said it was an awesome idea. The moment that bubble pops (I'm predicting Friday, when the original short calls come due), a lot of suckers will be stuck holding the bag.
It's way too late to get into the GME game now. The hedge funds have likely bought enough longs to at least somewhat mitigate the damage from their fuckups - those will rise along with the share price, so it's not like they're forced to buy an ever-increasing supply... it makes no sense for them to unless they're chasing profit from misery. Don't get me wrong, they're still fucked (because customers really hate losing money), but it won't be the apocalyptic send-em-to-the-poorhouse crash that everyone thinks it will be.
BTW, Folks chasing BBY and NOK (or similar) likely don't know to look first and see who has shorts set for those or how much - otherwise they end up holding worthless stock at inflated prices.
Don't get me wrong - watching hedge fund investors get scared and maybe end up twisting in the wind is funny as fuck. I just don't want to see pedes get fucked financially in the process.
Unfortunately, yup. The retail trading houses proved that this morning.
Cool with you playing devil's advocate always but disagree.
Yeah, not sympathetic. If someone is selling you a chance to sit at the poker table and you go for it, that is all on you. These things sometimes don't work out and everyone should know that. Anyone who thinks they will get rich quick is an idiot and if they are parted with their money meh. As long as everything was legal I'm not concerned.
But yeah, be careful pedes, none of us want you guys getting fucked over. If you don't know how something works don't use it or take someone else's word for it on a whim.
How is this any different than wasting money on any other form of entertainment?
NO CABLE NEWS SAID BUY GME YOU DUMB FUCK CUNT SHILL.
No, none of them did... at all. Oh, wait... what's this?
That took approximately two seconds on Bing. OANN, Newsmax, MSNBC, etc etc all have similar stories. It was all over the news last night. The unsophisticated sniffs around sees "OMG $5000 target!!!!111!!" all over the place, and buys.
Here's the issue: The hedge fund(s) who fucked up only has to buy a certain number of GME longs to limit the damage from the shorts they made, and any additional they buy after that is gravy. Other hedge funds jump in and buy longs as well, because hey, it's free money, and they can afford to use after-hours and other trading tools (that you don't generally have) to jump off the dragon before it drops, making a tidy profit along the way.
Welcome to the bubble! Just know that the music stops Friday, once the hedge fund shorts come due. If you're holding GME, you'll want to find a chair sometime before the masses realize the game is up.
The problem is that there are no longs to buy. The price inflation is due to lack of supply, so I don't think the funds will be able to pay back the shares without serious cost. I can see the price dropping as shares become available (i.e. no one will become a millionaire) but I think due to desperate situation most people will come out ahead
Found it: https://patriots.win/p/11SKBvS1ep/x/c/4DvnezpyHW2
Soemone had pointed out (in another post, sorry) that Gamestop itself had like 20 million shares (not owned by any one person), and that there may have been an agreement between Gamestop and the hedge fund to use those.
I don't have the skills to confirm or deny it, but it is a potential source of shares.
Well that would change things, but there couldn't be an agreement that didn't involve the fund buying that 20 million, which would be around market price. Now, that influx of new shares will drive the price down, but the hedge fund is losing money no matter what, which was the point in the first place, not making money. The guys who bought really late will probably lose money, but those people were buying like one or two shares to make a point. Spez: I don't think GameStop is legally allowed to collude like that, they'd be breaking fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders by selling shares below market value (even if that market is a bubble).
I bought just one GME share late to be a part of the fun. I am definitely still pissed about RH and others blocking trades though, and took the time to file complaint with FINRA and SEC.
The whole point is that they cannot buy enough shares to cover their shorts. You’re saying all they have to do is buy some shares? Do you even understand what is going on?
I answered this in a related thread - they bought a lot of them already. Also, there is possible collusion with Gamespot itself going on.
PS/Meta-Spez: IT appears that Robinhood is going to make those stocks available, whether the owners like it or not: https://patriots.win/p/11SKBvSqXR/robinhood-is-now-selling-peoples/c/
I watch the 4 min video WHERE IT SAYS TO BUY GME YOU LYING PIECE OF SHIT!
YOU WOULD BE BANNED IF I WAS A MOD.
At 3:40 the BITCH from FOX says ''stock prices will fall and people will lose money, but it hasn't happened yet''. WHERE IT SAYS BUY GME.
FUCKING SNAKE!
https://video.foxnews.com/v/6226765339001#sp=show-clips
You're pushing the little disclaimer like it somehow even slowed folks down. Judging by the bubble, it didn't.
...and now a shitload of ordinary folks are left holding expensive bags.
''Robinhood legitimately hid $NOK $AMC $GME and $NAKD from search. Internet psychology 101, this will only make things worse for you Wall Street. Things are getting blown the fuck up today. Take all the cash you can afford to lose and buy buy buy.''
''TAKE ALL THE CASH YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE AND BUY BUY BUY''
You can't even read can't you fucking inbred fuck. You are the product of the shit US education.
Try not to REE so much - it makes you look dumb. Robinhood's (and Ameritrade's, and Fidelity's, etc) actions happened this morning.
Spez: They still allow selling, but not buying; my bad.
Unless you can sell it somehow before COB Friday, consider it pretty much gone if you bought anything higher than $5/share, because after that the hedge funds go home, and the game stops. From there it's just a question of who can sell off and salvage some profit the fastest and soonest before it gets back to its natural state of <~ $5 per share... Pretty sure a lot of folks buying into it at this stage (if they can anymore) can't afford to dump cash into these stocks, unless they think they can come out of it with more than they put in. The boys at WSB know they can afford to lose what they put in, and operate on that principle. Most folks do not, especially when they see dollar signs and nothing else; see also the lottery. But that's cool - continue typing in all-caps and ranting like some drooling comment-section Democrat like it's some sort of replacement for logic and reason.
...and as I was typing that, it drops from $450/share to $297/share.
''It's already down $64 since open - methinks the bubble popped.''
I don't follow advice from lying inbred scumbags like you and DARE to talk about MY logic & reason.
I pray the day that the BLOCK BUTTON WILL WORK.
Dude stop being such a lefty buttfuck and thinkin you know people or what's in their minds over the internet. And then you took it to the level of wanting to end free speech. Clearly not one of us. At least I haven't seen a shred of logic and reason from you. Only typical lefty behavior.
Who was lying? It's down to $237 now, from a high of around $482 this morning. IT blew off a little over half of its price so far today. Search for "stock gme" on Bing and see for yourself.
Let me guess, you bought GME with money you really couldn't afford to lose? No shame in saying so.
And there is no market without losers. Making money on money is all about risk and not everybody wins in gambling. That's like saying, shit that guy cleaned out the slot machine and now everyone who comes behind him gets stuck holding the bag. Then get the fuck out of the casino. The only exception would be if there are actual laws being broken. The 300 pound tub of lard that can't run up stairs deserves to lose whatever marathon he signs up for as long as the thing is not rigged.
First off, tel me more about fundamentals when more than 100% of publicly tradeable shares are being shorted. This is like a voting precinct with 140% turnout.
That ain’t fundamentals, Benny.
Second, there are some deep pockets that went into this not just small ball peons. We’re they a part of a LARP? Yes.
But this time the LARPers used real weapons and the hedge funds are redpilling anyone who pays attention about how they’re rigging everything.
What if something controversial is both funny and bad? What then, learned scholars? What then?!
This guy is what happens if John Oliver didn’t have a boyfriend but his wife did.
As long as he doesn't argue for legally "protecting" the plebs from their own stupidity I don't care.
He does have a point.
The danger is not in idiots making mistakes and learning from them though, it's elites banning idiots from even trying to improve and compete.
This.
This misses the mark.
You can’t short squeeze any stock.
Why is over 140% of publicly traded shares allowed to be shorted? That’s like a precinct with 140% voter turnout.
Companies issue shares, not broker dealers.
So if the vultures so brazenly pile on shorts to that extent, I really could care less if a subreddit made them pay.
The comparison hinges. You can't borrow votes and return them later, especially with interest.
The problem isn't the 140% short, the problem is the the fascist rule over financial markets.
Oh shut the fuck up (Benjamin Aaron)
Ben Shapiro is a perfect example of the Conservative Inc breed; genuinely seems to enjoy placing intellectual masturbation over any other consideration, and somehow still manages to get money out of people.
UNSUBSCRIBE that fool!
Yeah it's obvious he has no idea how it works. These guys are waiting to sell into the squeeze. The squeeze hasn't happened. As long as they hold the squeeze is almost inevitable.
The bag holders will be the hedge funders and the banks that back them.
You mean the banks that the government will then bail out again with your money?
It shouldn't be enough to cause banks of any size to fail.
:(
What I worry is that they will find a way to prevent the squeeze, like buying the options from their friends in order to circumvent We The People
Or keep colluding with brokers to prevent people buying, decreasing price even if by a little and then scaring people. From 500 back to 200 and below
Gain your strength from WSB. They have the resolve! And they're basically retarded, so they can't really lie 😂
"unsophisticated investors".
That term really outs who is in the club and who ain't.
This
And here comes the Dumbass with his shitty opinion
Yeah, no.
I think we found a shorter.
Benji looking out for the tribe’s best interest as always
Who thefuck listens to Ben Shapiro?
I do. Yea he wears a little hat. But he's presenting stuff in a more credible way then anything the MSM can spew. patriots.win fills in the blanks where he doesn't go far enough. We're all on the same side here.
Only morons
Such an annoying little fag
Shapiro = Democrat
He is obviously controlled opposition.
"pricing fundamentals" Hah, what is this, 1908 in Austria? That ship has sailed, little buddy. Ludwig von Mises is spinning.
What a cuck bitch. These are actual people being sophisticated against unsophisticated companies. He has it backwards and shows he values companies more than people
What if people could do write up on stocks to help investors to either buy a stock or not but a stock? What if that was just allowed in an open society? What if people manipulating the system got caught with their pants down thinking they were getting a free win. Oh wait that did happen and now it's a bad thing. The big guy was suppose to win.... Ben is a fag. He needs to go back to arguing with 18yr normies to make himself feel "accomplished".
In a free market the rules are the same for unsophisticated investors as they are for pedophiles.
What if ben Shapiro is in on the short?
they shouldn't be gambling with billions if they don't want to lose.
Well I mean, his wife IS a doctor so
Benji angling for that rino money.
Ben Fagiro.
Shapiro is controlled opposition. Since the elections everyone knows.
Fuck this dude. Haven't watched him more than a year now. He was shilling hard.
What are we to expect from somebody who's favorite law school dean was Elena Kagan.
Cold blooded to put that picture up when I have no Crown Royal Apple to drink that image away. ;)
I dream of a world where this man stops fucking talking. Not silenced, just not talking
Ben Shapiro: The Original Concern Troll
Uh it's actually worse....
Hedge fund goes bankrupt > Small banks go bankrupt > Big banks go bankrupt > US Government bails them out > US Government prints more money to do bail out
Places holding money for people may affect those people. Maybe credit unions are the way to go?
Who?
What if "unsophisticated investors" want to hold the bag?
Investing and financial advisors have always been shills for Wall Street. Who the fuck is this Frodo looking mf?
Looks like someone doesn't understand how a short squeeze works. And this guy went to Harvard?!?
Think of the biggest, most popular asshat in high school, that's Ben Shapiro.
Unsophisticated investors are doing the skewing you rodent.
Fuck that Elitist prick. He was dying to have Trump screwed.
Oh no... people doing what they want with what little money they have.
Of course he's worried about other people's financials, that's kind of their thing.
options are literally gambling. I don't feel bad for anyone who loses a ton of money on options. That's just what it is.
I want to punch his little hat off
Then I guess you'll have to fucking deal with it.
There's nothing wrong with people deciding they want to buy something.
What a stupid cuck
Actually trying to stop what wallstreet bets is doing skews pricing fundamentals.
If we're being honest the downside of all this is that the government will use it to bludgeon us with more regulation when it's all over.
