Redditors gave Wall Street traders an absolute pasting

[Billingham52]

Despite me doing this for best part of two decades

Doing What ? you have called me a Moron I might well be when it comes to stock market stuff but I have gave you a few things to think about and you're supposed to be an expert at what ? what do you do then

The latest one seemingly all over social media is squeezesilver. It will be very interesting to see how it pans out because whilst trading platforms might be able to block people going on stocks, they cannot stop people ordering physical silver online.

That's an attempt by hedge funds to claw back some losses... not a financial advisor but I'm holding GME

Fantastic for a short time...

Like monkey tassle said they have manipulated the stock (illegal) of a company that is floundering and when that company says it cant continue a lot of redditors will lose their money because it will go to zero.

Or they will remove the ability to trade the stock which means money will be stuck and then it will go to zero...

Which means that if they hold on and hold on too long the hedge funds will be rubbing their hands

No they haven't...

WE LIKE THE STOCK

Is there a date where the people who shorted it have to pay up or is it just see who can hold on the longest? When the oil prices went down I know they had to take delivery of the oil on a certain day so you knew when the shit was hitting the fan, is there a certain day when the hedge funds shit hits the fan, if it does indeed happen?

It's only a modest amount but I'm willing to let it go to zero

Yes they have borrowed these shares and have to return them within a short time or pay for them at market value , Not sure how long maybe a few weeks or so , Monkey tassle is an expert he will clarify the time limit when the shit hits the fan

Ok let's say you get into gamestop at 325 dollars as you are sticking it to the man on wall street. And because its like blockbuster and goes bust because the turnover and sales are dogshit and it goes bust. The shares are worth zero.

Some man is stuck.

This isn't a game. Its lives, revenues and real f***ing money.

He was pointing out your illegible post.

They're bleeding money each passing day, it's taking the gains they're making from their golden geese and redistributing it... because they're so confident they can't be wrong they are still hanging onto those losing positions

Sunk cost fallacy in action, how far are they willing to go?

 

[Billingham52]

That's another one for the expert Monkeytassle to sort out . He said above they knew Game stop was shit so they sold the shares ? They did not do that at all they actually borrowed the shares to short them then make a profit the shares were not even theirs to sell/ trade they did it to make a quick buck and got horrible burnt .. now they owe the real owners a lot a lolly some expert

 

[ReidysLeftLug]

No they didnt they looked at a company who was floundering in your words and predicted that it would fall in value..

Redditors have manipupated the stock so it doesnt truly represent the value of the company (illegal)

Using that logic Tesla (and others) are also manipulated?

 

[Mackem00]

Me mate has shares in this valued at about 150k atm. Crazy like.

 

[Billingham52]

This manipulation talk is garbage absolute tripe , The hedgefund did not even own the shares they borrowed them hoping to make the price go down when they shorted them but the price went rocketing to the moon , now the people who they borrowed them off don't want them back at $15.00 they want em all back at $325.00 lol millions and millions of them ... serves em right

Your pension fund will have shorts and longs on a number of things

Not something as risky as a 140% naked short though...

Ask your financial advisor about lgim alpha fund

Im intrigued as to how you’ve done a portfolio analysis on someone else’s fund without having a scooby about where his money is invested?

Hedge funds will typically have a minimum investment of £1million so it’s fairly unlikely the man in the street will have much if any exposure to it. An alpha fund will try and outperform the mandate within its permissions, it’s unlikely an Alpha fund will have ploughed all its money into either Melvin or a single short position on one stock.

I’ve worked as a chartered wealth manager for a good 15 years and have plenty of experience of DFM’s and I’m questioning your credentials

MinkeyTinkle is very in touch with his anger.
