The Gamestop Stock Market Boogaloo

[Washington Resistance Army]

God bless Elon.

[The Marlborough]

Gamestop is slowly dying tho, the end result of this debacle is that when the shares inevitably drop the shitposters are gonna be left holding the bags.

I get the bag!

[Solarampa]

GameStop's stock is almost under 300 right now. We may see people panic selling making the price crash faster

God bless Elon.

Damn straight!

I’m not particularly leftist, but I do wonder if Marx was right about class consciousness. Things seem to be changing (if slowly), and it’s not just this little stock pushback.

It's real and it's starting to happen, sure the culture war and the left and right piss fights in the media distract people but if you look at this you realize a lot more people are coming together than they used too.

This is why the culture war was invented: "Don't listen to those people, they want to turn the frogs gay!"

They don’t care

The rich elites usually get away with it but they got stupid and greedy, and now they're mad that once again they're having to accept consequences, and they hate that.

Society needs to rediscover the meaning of the phrase, let the heaviest burdens fall on the broadest shoulders.

Because it seems that every time we have a crisis, we do the exact opposite. How much you want to bet that this story ends by regulation that stops small investors from profiteering like this that won’t do a thing to restrict the usual practices of larger investors?

[Lazarian]

TO. THE. MOON. I got in at just under $70 and it's over $300, we're riding this up to $1,000 and we're gonna crush Melvin.

Melvin is out as of yesterday.

Supposedly. The numbers don’t seem to add up for that.

Depends on who "they" are. You'll notice the loudest voices for a shitcoin are the quietest when a pump ends: they've already cashed out.

That's why I'm trying to cash out so much here and now. Retail investors got blamed for 2008 while the people who actually crashed the economy and ruined millions of lives got bailouts and no punishments. Fuck them and their system, if I can make a couple years worth of income in a few days AND bankrupt some jackasses on Wall Street I'm game.

[Rusozak]

Since when was the market fair? Seems to me like the cutthroat "survival of the fittest" Wall Street mentality turned around to bite the people advocating it for years and now that they're shorted they're whining about unfairness and a need for regulation.

That's likely the plan however the interesting point is that at this point a lot of the big money people are jumping in on the same side as the little guy and I have a feeling that's going to cause a problem when they try to come down on it, a lot of the smart Investors are going to want stuff like this to happen from now on, sure it's out and out Stock Market Casino antics but some rich people are going to win big from this too.

At this point the question is if this spreads to the market at large, I could see a problem there, be very ironic if the government has to bail out a bunch of Hedge funds because they lost to the Average American Taxpayer.

I also see how they plan to control the retail investors, they simply shut down the apps and systems they use when they do stuff Wall Street doesn't like.

God bless Elon.

He does hate him some shorts.

Hold the line, boys and girls! Hold the line!

They are not shutting them down, their systems can't handle the volume. Excuse me for a moment


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I wonder what their retail trade agreements look like, do they have an obligation to execute legal trades?

[Neutraligon]

This is just so glorious, schadenfreude at its best.

[The Two Jerseys]

True Capitalism at work. I approve.

This is also why I'd rather bet on horses than invest in the stock market...

[Solarampa]

Pay attention to Blackberry too. They are rising pretty good

[Greater Kopmakia]

The big companies don't like that the average people figured out how to get back at them so they're crying for regulations.

[Kowani]

From chatter I’ve been seeing, Blackberry, AMC, and Nokia are the ones people are looking at inflating next

It is so great to be able to just crush Wall Street at their own games.

AMC is already going up, I believe. I'll have to check again.

Note: if you’re a hedge fund manager and you don’t already have a Reddit account, make one now.

It's quadrupled in a few days time already.
