The total market capital of wall sheet is

The total market capitalization of the U.S. stock market is $50,808,508.7 million (12/31/2020). The market value is the total market cap of all U.S. based public companies listed in New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Stock Market or OTCQX U.S. Market (read more about OTC markets from here.

I dont think the 2.1 billion at play in GME is going to have more than a ripple effect on the markets

I’m pleasantly surprised to see Jason Zweig’s column still in, may have gone past the WSJ censors, he’s siding with the redditors and linking this to a greater trend started by John C Bogle

I thought he willingly gave the interview?

That was yesterday. It seems it was firstly cnbc to track him, then wall street journal got an interview with him.

They are really not understanding this. There is no leader.

Not willingly. They tracked and doxxed him first.

Yet they'll start crying about how it's "an assault on freedom of the press" when someone posts reporters' home addresses online...

This is why we need press restrictions.

Get your tinfoil hats boys, cause I'm wondering why this was ok'd in the first place.

Talking about diversification of risk, what the GME horde should do, it is to diversify their brokers. (not their portfolio)
To reduce the risk of getting scammed, like what happened with robinhoodapp. If one broker starts to scam, block, or force sell, having more brokers lined up to cover the damage caused, can help.

Because those jackasses think they can genuinely do no wrong and it's okay when they do it. I hope someone doxxes all their staff and posts their info online.

Ah, so CNBC doxxed him and since he realized there was no point in not doing so, gave the interview to WSJ willingly?

Why WSJ specifically though?

Not sure, I posted earlier on the page about WSJ’s print newspaper being friendlier to the Redditors than CNBC or CNN, although it may just be a few columnists

That seems to be the general understanding of what happened. They cornered him. Pretty shitty.

Besides, he still managed to inject in the interview on him some of his how position, about the value of gamestop as a reasonable investment :lol2:

But yeah, his story, and the reddit boom, are two different stories, which happened to cross. He was into gamestop before all this hype, and he may continue on with it, after this has blown off.

Bound to happen at this point, now that a bunch of shitposters are about to become rich. The world is not yet ready for Millennial and Zoomer 4chan millionaires.

The world hasn't learned anything from the crypto millionaires.

I think another be takeaway from this was the boiling away of the feigned friendship with certain media outlets. They are not our friends. Some may have gotten a little too comfortable with them when a lot of those outlets joined the anti-Trump bandwagon but at the end of the day they are still on the side of a bigger and older enemy than Trump ever was.

They can't comprehend their motives or actions, it's why they're so scared.

I can't resist mentioning again that the media speaks truth to power until they become the power.
