They raised a billion dollars last night.

I hope they save it because they are done.

Their excuse does not hold water. They should have completely haulted all trading on these stocks, not just buying.

Even highschool students understand that if you reduce demand while holding supply, you are tanking the price and giving those who are still able to buy (hedge funds) an advantage.

Yep it was market manipulation in the guise of compliance with securities regulations. I saw the CEO of RH on TV and he could not or would not clearly define what "regulations" he was complying with by only pausing buying the stocks hyped on Reddit.

It's not market manipulation. They just borrowed a billion dollars because they couldn't cover all of these trades.

So why didn't they hault buying and selling? Why hault only buying?

I missed the investment opportunity but am waiting on news that the hedge funds grovel for a new bailout. Wall St needs to stop eating avocado toast lunches and bootstraps through market volatility.

This administration better not even think of bailing these idiots out of this one.

Jen Psaki’s brother is a portfolio manager at Citadel. Janet Yellen has taken $800K in fees from Citadel.

Slap on the wrist and keep it moving.

Um, Janet Yellen is at the Treasury, not the SEC. Do you even know the difference? But hey, Diamond Hands!!

What’s your point? My point was about conflicts of interest in the Biden administration.

That sounds totally Trumpian. Any connection = a conflict of interest for the entire organization. I'm sure I could find members of the Biden administration who have equity positions in GameStop. Oh wait, look Blackrock made a billion dollars off of the Gamestop runup, and it's chock full of Biden connections! https://www.businessinsider.com/what-to-know-about-blackrock-larry-fink-biden-cabinet-facts-2020-12

See, that was easy.

You’re deflecting. Everything that you don’t like is “Trumpian”. Stop acting like regulatory capture and revolving door haven’t been issues for some time now.

This. Amen.

No, you need to demonstrate a conflict, not merely fish around for a connection. I just gave you a connection that works in the favor of Gamestop. So do they cancel each other out? Are they both meaningless? Or do you get to pick the one you like, without any evidence to support them?

It's exactly like Trump blaming a judge's Mexican heritage for blocking his travel ban. Or blaming WaPo stories on their connection to Bezos. Or insinuating that Mueller can't be trusted because he worked with Comey.

This is how conspiracy theorists work. They dig out connections and then without proof declare them to be evidence of a conspiracy.

Here, I'll do it again.

Look the Chairman of the Board of Gamestop is a prolific donor to Democrats! They must be on Gamestop's side.

You are sorely missing the point. This is not a Democrat/Republican issue. The fact that you frame it that way tell me all I need to know.

Not trying to throw this thread off topic, but I have two words: Russian collusion.
If you want to talk about fishing around for connections, look no further than this board, the big name media people and the Democrats.
The connections some in the Biden admin have to big tech and Wall street are concerning and several Senators have expressed this concern.
And, you have people like Pelosi and Feinstein with questionable stock transactions after the election.
If we had a truly unbiased media, they would be investigating these connections in light of this story. But we don't.

I agree with you that this is how conspiracy theorists work. However, conspiracy theorists thrive in environments where there is a lot of cynism. If RH goes unpunished for this, cynism will multiply.

I am a poster on another thread who has 3 close friends/family members who voted for Trump. These men are highly educated, not racist and not poor. But they are highly cynical about everything. These are people who are playing by the rules and making a good life for themselves. Yet they are convinced that the rules don't apply to a small group of people and that these people control everything. They are convinced that it's only a matter of time before this group of people find a way to screw them over.

This RH event if not handled properly by this administration will lead to several other people becoming highly cynical. If we are going to fight conspiracy theorist, we have to fight instances like this that foster cynism.

Nope. There were some really fishy ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. It was right to investigate.

Yes!

Radical transparency is the only way to combaf conspiracy thinking. The internet has closed the gap on the information disparity between elites and the masses.

No, I am not "sorely missing the point." I am pointing out that the way conspiracy theorists operate is that they find connections and then use the mere presence of the connections as proof of a conspiracy. This is exactly what QAnon did. It's exactly what Trump did. Just because you feel a certain way about the issue does not make these connections important, while Trump's and QAnon's were unimportant.

Who said anything about not investigating?
There is a difference between investigating and declaring Russian collusion much like Schiff, Swalwell, MSNBC, CNN, and others did.

Or does it mean a victory for the HFs as the information becomes harder to find? I'm not sure, that's why I asked.
