Not really. The people who are moving this money are largely not the people with a few hundred bucks to their names. The entire lot of those types don't even move the needle.

Being without a relationship has never made me want to go to Vegas and gamble my 401k on blackjack.

  Being without a relationship was Galloway's take. This poster's take is that he's find going to zero because him and many others would rather stick it to the man, even if it means the stocks go to zero eventually.

That's the lamest take I've seen yet. They identified a short squeeze opportunity and exploited it. No Freudian analysis needed.

  if you check out the forums, most of them have wives

    And if you double check, their wives have boyfriends

    This is hilarious. I had a good laugh.

  It is only exploitation if he's trying to get out, it seems he's in and doesnt want to get out just so he can stick it to the big players.

As if a few hundreds worth of GME stock would matter to a billion dollar hedge fund. You can also go to 4chan where you can find selfproclaimed nazis who thinks they are fighting the jews on wall street. It is all very idiotic. As someone noticed elsewhere here on hn; regardless if it is a pump and dump manipulation or a short squeeze, GME will eventually come down. Maybe not in a week but surely in a year.

  > As if a few hundreds worth of GME stock would matter to a billion dollar hedge fund. In aggregate I’m sure the hedge funds will be happy to take that money. The thing to be concerned about is the sentiment of that Reddit poster. It’s not wrong and IMO it’s the reason you see such politicization in the West now. The thing people are failing to understand is that throwing away your money or electing an incompetent leader isn’t “sticking it to the man”. It’s simply giving them more money or a broken system where it’s easier for the dishonest to thrive.

  Would you like to wager when GME will decline by selling short?
  - throwaway4good 6y ago
    As someone suggested in this thread - selling a call with expiry in summer - that seem like a reasonable thing.

The inverse galloway index would have you a millionaire in 2 years from 100k.
