Anyone know if these brokerages are also refusing to allow people to sell? Can you imagine holding GME and having to watch it drop back down without the ability to sell?

Liquidation is pretty much always allowed and the lawsuits will go nowhere. Perfectly legal to go liquidation only.


Only for certain stocks in ANY scenario?

The bar for justifying liquidation only is incredibly low. Regulations seemingly always err on the side of restrictions/lowering volatility

I work in futures, not stocks. We are even more regulated than stocks.

I'm assuming the laws and compliance stuff is very similar so I could be wrong but I think they're asses are covered.

It depends on why they had to do it though.

Market volatility is almost always the reason and it obviously applies here, so no matter what the real reason is, they're covered.

It sucks and its shady but its legal.
It won't be easy but you'd have to prove it was done to help a hedge fund that gives them significant money.

That would be like proving someone broke your window during a hurricane that was breaking windows everywhere.

But yea, probably possible but extremely unlikely

The Citadel-Robinhood relationship is going to be scrutinized heavily in this.

Supposedly the WSB guys are buying silver. Not sure how you buy silver.


Maybe through an ETF, as it would be hard for most of these customers to open a futures account.

They're buying SLV and AG stock

Watching CNBC guests and hosts lose their minds the last few days trying to defend billionaires has really made my week.

Many Crypto exchanges also shut down the trading of Doge this morning. What is their rationale for this? That the working poor and middle class was accumulating too much wealth for their liking?

After a complete drop, it seems to be going back up again.

GameStop's inevitable death isn't from Covid though. The new generation of consoles is digital only so GameStop's ability to buy/sell used games is up as people switch to PS5.

She's a woman so you kind of have to factor that in.

Nope, but he will continue to make me money.

The best thing he did for Stoolies was to tell us to buy Penn after the acquisition.

Pretty fucking sick. And what's worse is nothing will happen. These fucks make the rules and change them when they start to lose.
