Was Yellen confirmed?

How’d she get past the questioning given her “speech fees”?

Mitch McTurtle said: "Did you accept hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees from a company you'll be regulating?"

"Yes, I did, senator."

Mitch walked over and gave her a high five. "Way to go, girl!"

It’s not a loss until they are forced to close out the position due to a margin call.

Many of the short sellers are still hoping the people keeping the price up will eventually fold.

I know everyone wants to root for the underdog against the big evil empire .

But you better keep a close eye on your 401ks.

This could have a catastrophic ripple effect...and Biden can’t handle it.

It would be glorious to see complete capitulation by the short selling hedge funds.

I’m glad the billionaire hedge funds are getting creamed. They pick on companies to destroy and couldn’t care less about the misery they cause. It’s simply to make as much money as possible. Clean them out!!

Gamestop (GME) closed at $325 and is currently at $319 after hours.

There is just something about a bunch of commie leftists loosing their a$$ at their own rigged game. It just warms my heart.

The House is never suppose to lose. That's not the way they rigged the game.

Robinhood is either insolvent or close to insolvent. They are limiting purchases of stocks like Starbucks.

What do you think that is going to look like as this whole thing is unwound?

Why is Robinhood insolvent? (Legitimate question from a novice in stock trading)

" Robinhood is either insolvent or close to insolvent. They are limiting purchases of stocks like Starbucks. What do you think that is going to look like as this whole thing is unwound?"

I think Robinhood is limiting trades of non targeted stocks as a defense of plausible deniability that they were directly involved in market manipulation. In other words they are trying to muddy the waters to claim they were only trying to protect the little guy. All I can say is good luck with that.

I have already predicted this will be the end of Robinhood.

The CEO is going to be lucky to stay out of prison. Somebody is going to have to take one for team commie and he is the most likely candidate and front runner.
