Yeah, I saw the interview. But what you linked is only part of the interview. Here's the whole interview which shows how despicable this guy is. It's one of the most disgusting interview I've seen and made my blood boil mad. I will pull all my money out of Interactive Brokers and only keep the account open til next year so I can get my 1099 tax documents from them. I don't trust these assholes to give me my tax documents if I close the account before I file my taxes next year. So I will keep 1 penny in the account to keep it open and then close it after I get my tax documents next year. I have to protect myself from the evil guy and his evil IB company.

Wow thanks for linking this extra bit. This IB guy clearly thinks he decides WHY people should invest in a company, like he controls their money or something. That's pretty infuriating. If people don't care if they lose money and want to put money into the game, that should be completely up to them.
No wonder you want out. Unreal.

This was to protect the middleman? He thinks the stock is worth $17? Why? It’s okay for hedge funds to short the stock, send out negative information about to push the price down, but when a group of individual traders buy it, the resulting price jump is not the “price” of the stock? What kind of logic is that? I don’t want to take the money from hedge fund x because I have to give it all these people over here? I agree it’s like the scene you posted, they had no bullets, a.k.a. liquidity at that point. This is not right.

the lawsuits and lawyers handle the criminal convictions. the congressional hearings handle the potential regulations, that could actually lead to reform against these hedge funds and brokerages.
what do you actually want to happen here, that congressional hearings aren't required?

I remember that. I didn't realize they were in the process of filing papers or entertaining such when that happened.

It's game time. I'm in GME. Bought in this morning premarket. I can't stand by and not do anything. If I lose, I lose. But I stand with WSB and all retail. FUCK WALL STREET!
It's war.

Yes. If you think it is going to go down, you might be able to short it and profit. On the surface it sounds like an evil vulture move: profiting from the price of something going down. But what it usually does is have people sell when prices are artificially too high (lowering the big peaks) and buy when stocks are down (rising the valleys). The only way for a short to be profitable is to buy when the price is low. In other words, it is the shorts that are buying when the stock needs buyers the most. Shorting tends to keep prices more steady than without shorts.
Making the price of something go down with bad publicity is a grey area. If anything you do is misleading, false, or even exaggerated, that is illegal and massive fines are given out. Shorting can be abused. That abuse or even appearance of abuse is quite problematic.
I have shorted one thing in my life: silver. When silver was over $40/ounce, I sold it. Then when it was $20/ounce I bought it. I did this 3 times (different price levels though). It was profitable for me to do that and I haven't done any shorting in years. Shorting can be very dangerous, as losses when shorting something can be massive.

YouTuber Roaring Kitty who disrupted Wall Street is Boston dad
The Youtuber known as 'Roaring Kitty' behind the Wall Street meltdown is a Boston father named Keith Gill, DailyMail.com can reveal.
But hey, mainstream media willing to spread the word to audiences who don't read or care for the Dailymail makes me go
.His name was spoken during the AOC livestream too.
It does look like the shennanigans that caused the stock to dip yesterday represented a buying opportunity. Ah well, I just have to keep reminding myself that I'm just fine sitting on the sidelines. Enjoy the ride, folks that bought in. Today should be kind of wild.
