Redditors gave Wall Street traders an absolute pasting

The only ones to pump and dump are the so called moral brigade who pumped it to 420 a share and still as of now are telling people to buy in and more to cover there own positions. Most will have covered there highs with shorts today and it will be 30 by the end of the week. Allot of the moral bridge soon lost there morals when they told the naive to buy into it to help cover there own price bottoming or when they cashed in.

Those praying for Elon Musl to arrive to pump are on another planet.

What's your outlook and gamestop and the pump and dump reddit has done on retail investors?

I sold some local vol and it made money. Still short a bit of gamma which isn't nice but it pays well

I think I have explained this several times, it is not germane to Gamestop in particular and if you think this is about Gamestop in particular you are a big silly
 
Havent a scooby about this same with the crypto tbh but done ok with that so far.

Been a canny day today for ETH

Do you have an opinion on gamestop stock? Or are you just here to have a barney as usual. The losers here are the poor schmucks like the junior above that called above. Hedge funds I don't gove a fog about. Its clear very few people on here know what one actually is.

Luckily he dumped at around 145 went to short it back in at 130 so should cover 2/3 rds by the end of the week if he it did it, damage limitations. Will be a lesson for the lad! No such thing as easy money.
At 102 currently. Short cap of 121 percent. Wow. Only one place it’s going now.

as I have said (posts passim) my interest is in those taking a principled stand, to wreak havoc, for just a few days

if you think this is about Gamestop you are stupid
if you think this was about making a profit you are stupid

I understand you are woefully ill equipped to understand these ideas

The principled stance darling ended up doing more damage to those who went in not knowing much and have had there fingers burnt of the pretend proviso that they were doing a noble act. They were used to pump the prices so people could dump there’s and got left holding the bag.

Yeah I know of him. He used to be on a daft reality show years ago (he was already minted, it was a crap version of the apprentice).

Is he worth that much? Regardless, it's probably made up.

He is. He sold a dotcom startup with $60m annual sales to Yahoo for about $6 billion in Yahoo shares at the height of dotcom stupidity, and had the foresight to turn a good chunk of it into cash.

He's on the yank equivalent of dragons den and is good crack on that.

Important to note though that he didn't say he was going to put his entire fortune into Gamestop, or even buy any shares in them at all. He just said that anyone owning the shares now should hold them if they can afford to, rather than eat the loss.

Oh yeah. Was it entertainment.com

To be fair the show was shite. He was mates when all his apprentices and had to give one of them a million.

Here she is. Swallowed a dictionary for dinner.

Honest regular people have lost a hell of a lot of money because of this. And you are woefully ill equipped to even be involved in this thread as you haven't à f***ing clue what's going on. You've joined to pile into me when it's clear I'm the most qualified person (arguably with @nyron4england)to be involved.

You're the moron here. Not me. Despite long words.
