Famed GameStop bull ‘Roaring Kitty’ is a Massachusetts financial advisor



quote:

A YouTube streamer who helped drive a surge in the shares of GameStop is a 34-year-old financial advisor from Massachusetts and until recently worked for insurance giant MassMutual, public records and social media posts show.

Keith Patrick Gill is the person behind the Roaring Kitty YouTube streams which, along with a string of posts by Reddit user DeepF***ingValue, helped attract a flood of retail cash into GameStop, burning hedge funds who had bet against the company and roiling the broader market.

In his social media messages and videos, Gill repeatedly made the bull case for the beleaguered bricks-and-mortar retailer and shared images of his trading account profit on the stock, sparking a following of like-minded GameStop enthusiasts.

In the Democrat USA, giving Financial Advice is illegal?

If he's really a financial advisor; then he should've been pre-clearing his trades via his employer.

I guess that's why it now says... "recently worked for insurance giant MassMutual".

I'm sure he hates the free publicly.

CNBC giving him tens of thousands in free advertising.

I mean this is going to have the opposite effect of doxxing. The dude is going to get a lot of praise instead of getting canceled.

Is it good or bad for the movement that he is a professional and not some guy in his basement?

The old guard is really "concerned" about this. I've heard more convoluted claptrap for why this is illegal, or at least should be, from a half dozen outlets over the last couple of days. There is nothing illegal about pumping a stock on YouTube or anywhere else. Companies send their lackeys on to every major business cable outlet to do exactly that on a daily basis. Jim Cramer and others have entire programs that pump and bash stock buys. The guy is on an anonymous internet forum. He doesn't even know who is listening. No one on reddit or YouTube is paying him for financial services. The bottom line is that the old guard got caught with their pants down and they don't like it.

And this crap about the market not being a casino. That's exactly what it is for the vast majority of the old guard. They are just used to playing as the house. Rain Man showed up and took them to the cleaners. Now they don't want to allow him to play any longer.

CNBC is protecting their gig and covering for Wall Street brokerage houses.

Here’s what they have done for years and why CNBC was created. The brokerage firms like Lynch and others load up on stock and then once they have their positions CNBC begins to talk about the stock and what a solid company it is. They have the CEO on the show and then they have a few experts back him up and tell
What an awesome company he is running. The stock goes up and they sell you the stock they bought months earlier at a lower price. It has worked for decades and now they got fricked back and they want to take their kickball
And go home.
