You know I bet you can get a wood chipper for about the price of the stimulus. I bet a billionaire would fit

I dunt think the guys doing this are poor though...

They are in the context of Wall Street and hedge funds. They're total poors. And Wall Street doesn't like it when regular people have fun.

What about SoFi? I don’t think they are doing that.

Wow, like capitalists haven't been fucking people since the 1800s. Somehow this upsets someone? What is new about this?

Buy doge coin
mrthroatwarblermangrove
Maybe I'm an idiot, but if "no one" is allowed to buy the stock rn, exactly who are the douches "selling" it to?
ChurlishSunshine
It's only the poors using these apps that couldn't buy. HFs and people with brokers still could.

You know, there's a lot from AOC I don't agree with. But this...yeah, I'm actually with her on.

People are literally going ape shit over dogecoin right now. The meme economy is real.

Sounds hot, I think...what's the thing, I think I'm supposed to ship it? Am I doing this right? Oh fuck, my hip! AAAAAGH!

I know you’re (half?) joking, but ima put this out there: You ‘Stan’ an individual, you ‘ship’ a friendship—like the bromance from scrubs.

Thanks yo, you're right that I was joking but I appreciate it. Jokes are always better when the guy with the mic knows what he's saying!

Well there is one thing mitigating their losses. Hold. Hold and don't fucking budge.

Assuming they were able to short on the $300 drop today, they made their money back. Hold, but know the battle is probably over.

i doubt any thing substantive will actually happen. this country has made itself to cater to the rich. would love to be wrong but...

You can still purchase without the apps though, right? I'd like to see people still fighting the good fight.
CoreyLee04
fidelity still lets you buy as they own majority of the shares.
JWarder
You still need a broker of some sort. It takes a few days to transfer funds if you're dealing with more than a few hundred bucks.
BlacknCrimsonRose
I watched using my etrade account on my laptop. Never lost the ability to purchase, just didnt have the money to.
LuminoZero
ETrade and Fidelity seem to be the big names that aren't blocking sales.
ChocolatePizzaMemes
Funny, because Dogecoin is going crazy atm!
LuminoZero
Dogecoin is 100% greed. Somebody is going to be left holding the bad when that bubble bursts, and it won't be a billionaire.

What's that line in "Wall street"? I think he goes on about how, "I don't create, I own."
fireaza
It does work, it's working EXACTLY as intended. The catch is WHO it's intended to work for.
aFadingMemory
Also, the reason they over leveraged was throwing good money after bad in an attempt to tank gamestop and cost >32,000 people their jobs.

When I heard this the first time I laughed, I was 15.

I'm not a billionaire, but I'm doing well with this little game. More of us working poor need in on this.

In an ideal world, right that "billionaires deserve their money" line you would hear "OH GOD, MY BALLS!"

Working as intended, but not for us.

An even worse thought: its working exactly as designed
skysailor93
Can someone clarify, how do you sell if others can't buy?
DarthKalel
Hedge funds can buy they're brokers. Average people can't
gtg926y
People can buy using a broker, just not through these crooked apps.
BlacknCrimsonRose
In addition to what @gtg926y said, the company may have an auto purchase set up to buy stocks when made available.
WibblyWobblyTimeyWimeyFox
To clarify: Robinhood can't deny ALL possible trading, only that from people using it. The Redditors were using it for this purpose. >
WibblyWobblyTimeyWimeyFox
Robinhood went "no, my monies", put a lockdown on all gamestop trades through them, plugging one of the holes until the short passes.
WibblyWobblyTimeyWimeyFox
They may also be able to pretend "oh we presumed fraudulent trades" and lockdown the shares and money until the short passes as well.
WibblyWobblyTimeyWimeyFox
This is probably illegal, but rich people don't usually suffer consequences for breaking the law
