From what I just read, those squeezes were just a beginning.


I pity those with 401ks in that hedge fund...

“I pity those with 401ks in that hedge fund...”

I am not joking when I say that if my 401K evaporates, but it leads to the exposure, arrest, and disposal of the DS, I will NOT care in the least ... and my 401K is nothing to sneeze at.

I will gladly die broke so long as it means liberty for my son and the rest of you jagoffs and your kids :-)!!! Some things are a hell of a lot more important than money (like bringing back really hot 80s chicks in spandex and pinball ... that kind of important!!! :-) :-) ).

I doubt very much that 401ks can invest in hedge funds.

Greenwald piece on the GameStop situation. Really good.

Of interest in general on the subject, this is really gotten folks on the right and left on the same page...

Keep in mind the purpose of the hedge fund. It's kind of the bet against the market, the cushion for hard times, the hedge.

My retirement is pretty basic - stocks and bonds and cash and a few precious metals scattered around in various places.
