Once again, some of y’all don’t understand the dynamics of all of this. Robinhood has drawn on multiple credit lines today. If you think they’re fricking you by stopping trades, wait until you see how difficult it will be to trade if they fail. ETA- this isn’t a hedge fund problem.
Can you explain what this means and why not allowing further purchases of GME is in the best interests of those that would otherwise want to buy it? How does Robin Hood fail by letting the hedge funds that bet badly on GME fail?

There were some really nice regulatory roll backs scheduled in March to help small investors. Almost certain to get shelved because of this.

Cool, before the nonsense started and I was working my arse off I had an IB account. Now I know I’ll never need to use it again. I’m living paycheck to paycheck, but I used them for low commissions, but he just laughed at any repercussions.
That laugh that says: Not one person went to jail during the financial crisis that was still haven’t fully recovered from. You think us brokers give a shite about the average person?

19.5 B Net Worth yet still greedy enough to stick it to the retail investor at any turn. Eliminate the middle class.

Gotta start letting these businesses fail. Nothing changes until Wall Street and politicians are allowed to reap what they sow.

My issue is less with robinhood shutting things down and more with CSNBC et al rushing to save the hedge fund with suit guests and misleading headlines

CNBC has had plenty of guests defending the squeeze too, but yes, their overall tone has been negative towards the action.
