    Reddit r/WSB bankrupts Hedge Fund using Robinhood

    HOT! INVESTING 
    To be fair, six months ago some people on WSB were speculating that Gamestop was undervalued because of a bunch of upcoming changes to the company in its management and business model, plus short term gains on selling upcoming consoles and several other reasons. That's when people started...

    I do think that alot of WSB know what they are doing, but its mostly guys who have been there long before the GME craze. Now everyone and their grandma wants a piece of the action, that subreddit grew from less than a million subs to more than 8 million in the span of a week. The sub has been...

    Reddit r/WSB bankrupts Hedge Fund using Robinhood

    HOT! INVESTING 
    9 times out of 10 this is great advice, i just like to look a bit into the nuances of the situation. It looks like a situation that I'd have to buy the dip and assume other redditors will too, and then sell shortly after, making maybe a quick buck with not great gains and lots of potential that...

    HOT! INVESTING 
    My two cents in this whole bit. While I think in theory the buy and hold strategy in this particular case is sound, since the Hedge fund has its pants down with a 140% short sell. However, I think we can't underestimate the power of coersion and disinformation campaigns, this has the potential...

    I've been out of the loop for sometime. Does anybody have some accurate data on what the actual death rate is? I've been looking at the princess cruise ship from this study: Estimating the infection and case fatality ratio for C0VlD-19 using age-adjusted data from the outbreak on the Diamond...

    Recently saw a video from Pewdiepie about happiness and Stoicism and thought of this thread. Figured I should share this: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FinMGtpTud0

    Anyone learning something useful in quarantine?

    Not doing coarses per se. But me and Rosetta Stone are getting to know each other well. Japanese isn't going to learn itself. That and finishing up my game in the making. Great opportunity to do stuff I wanted to do, but couldn't due to lack of time.

    What business would you launch, If you got laid off due to C0VlD-19?

    At first I thought it was a reference to Forest Gump :P. If you feel that passionate about it, why not start now? You'll have this customer at least. :)

    This combined with what @JScott was talking about in another thread. That the government retains the option to buy out stock terrifies the fricken hell out of me. Like we are at the first step of the end of american capitalism.

    I'm still in the position that I don't know enough to decide how dangerous this is. So I'm not taking unnecessary risks for now. Two friends of mine might have the virus. One of them gave CPR to a homeless person who couldn't breathe. He says he's been feeling pressure in his lungs lately and...

    To be fair, I'm pretty sure that it's difficult to monitor how many successful recoveries there are (first you have to clearly define what "recovery" really means. No symptoms or no sign of the virus?). That would require those who got tested to return and get tested again to confirm that they...

    Faulty death reporting, on what basis? Right now, the reported death is 8215, that is a decrepancy of more than 7215, why would they fake reporting deaths on this scale?

    The death toll is completely proportional to our response to the virus. If we continue to have a lax response to the virus USA will be the next epicenter, right after Italy. Italy has just started to slow its toll by completely locking down everything. We must respond in the same fashion. It...

    I don't know 100% (I don't have a crystal ball.) However, today Canadian provinces have started shutting down all nonessential business. I imagine at the rate US cases are growing, they will either follow suit or even worse declare martial law. That will push the market down much further. Not...
