...why is the lady so emotional/who is she...?...
....I don’t really fully understand Trading but never seems very ethical to me because businesses/companies are people’s lives and livelihoods ...as people’s lives are falling apart, others are cheering and walking on air with their ‘pay off’...I can’t get in board with any of it... |

The overall aim of the... Erm... "movement" is to destroy the hedge fund that was trying to make the stock worthless in the first place, and isn't actually about making money (they are willing to lose the investment for the cause). The overall aim I guess is to make these unethical traders wary of playing such brazen games with stock shorting. |

GameStop shouldn't be close to any real gamer's heart, they give people like Ł4 for a 2nd hand game and then sell it to someone else for Ł25 .

It's funny how quick the US government are to get involved in all of this, it's only the rich that can do such things, everyone else must know their place, it seems.

I can only cheer them on, they're revealing an ugly truth about the stock market, and they're bleeding hedge funds while doing it. Eat the rich.

I heard it described as the hedge fund managers "getting caught with their hand in the cookie jar" and I think that's quite apt. They've been badly burned for it...and that's a very good thing, because if they'd pulled it off once, they'd have kept doing it. |
