It seems to me it's because "market makers" are a thing. Market making activities create billions in profits. But we are seeing the flaw in the market making algorithms. Do we need market makers to let us always take a posi

isn't this a serious exploit in the whole market maker system?

I understand technically what a gamma squeeze is and how it happens, but I don't understand why the banks/brokers are on the other side of you buying a call option. It seems totally exploitable. Are banks/brokers selling you

How is it any different from Kramer / CNBC / The Motley Fool recommending stocks to buy and giving price targets?

Be careful, you can still get scammed here. I got hit for a $75 scam product that I bought with my CC, mistakenly thinking I would be protected. The scammers knew what they were doing though. They ship you a super super super cheap version

I wonder how this has affected the development of PlayCanvas. I don't see any statements about the acquisition or even just a roadmap or statement about the future. It looks like Snap bought it + a game studio and then launched a few h

I only have experience with Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Amsterdam; but if you sit outside of a daycare in those cities in the morning you can see the multitude of people who ride their bikes to drop off their 1, 2, and sometimes 3 kids at

I think he's trying to say that there could be an argument made for catching China up to the rest of the world, so that they can spend their resources innovating on new things, not just trying to get caught up. It's not hard to

I think the funniest part of this story is how much Portugal spends on the corpse removal & burning. The vultures do the job for free! Another example of this is in The Biggest Little Farm. The farmers have a problem with gophers. The &
