FWIW, social media is a destructive force and for that reason I do not use Twit, FB, etc. There is no meaningful discussion to be had there and the platforms do nothing but allow corporate giants to accumulate data about you.
Not surprised. With no policy controlling content Parler is asking for it. I looked at that platform months ago but determined there were a few too many flakes for my taste. Still, I don’t like the concerted effort I see to silence certain ideas.
You would be incorrect. However I do not consider myself a “trader” but an investor. I refuse to be an apologist for a CEO who takes full advantage of the benefits bestowed upon him when the timing and exuberant tone of that vaccine announcement is quite suspicious. As I stated in a previous post on this thread this is not about me. It is about all the individual investors out there who put faith in the markets but were potentially denied the chance to adjust their portfolios due to the shortcomings of online brokerages.
LOTS of individual investors who do business via online brokers. I know that Schwab and TD Ameritrade were impacted the day of the Pfizer announcement. There are probably others.
"The sale of these shares is part of Dr. Bourla's personal financial planning and a pre-established (10b5-1) plan, which allows, under SEC rules, major shareholders and insiders of exchange-listed corporations to trade a predetermined number of shares at a predetermined time," a Pfizer spokesperson said in a statement.

Pardon me for being a bit cynical but I’m wondering if this is all about raising money at this point in time and keeping the Republican base riled up for what is yet to come.
