Dems and Mainstream media should keep giving a platform to Marjorie Taylor Greene. Infact they should amplify her just like Trump amplified AOC and Ilhan Omar to scare America from the radical left. Amplification of Marjorie Taylor Greene will be tantamount to the same thing - scare America from the Conspiracy Theorist dumb loonies that now control the Republican party.

I'm well known here for my unapologetic reliance on conservative media like foxnews, breitbart, newsmax etc.
But let's forget the media and focus on the message.
Let's dwell on truth, whatever quarters coming from.

I have only just come across it myself in the last hour. Still looking for more information. Stayed away due to the de-listing news.

But at 0.29 current price, it sure looks inviting if there's going to be a rally.
Not sure if 25,000 people is enough to sustain a rally but let's see

Absolutely agree with you. Wasn't in them anyway. Just copied a guy's list on Etoro. I don't hold stocks or beeeet coins. I solely do FX.

And even though the whole movement interests me, I am only looking to find daily 5 to 10% and with no more than 2% of my current capital.

Meanwhile, what are your thoughts on the impending xrp pump on Monday. 25k people signed on already.
Please fill me in on the XRP stuff. I thought XRP was getting delisted on all major exchanges? I assume good news impending on their SEC palaver?

Please avoid all those stocks except GME cos there is not enough retail buying power to fight with the institutional guys on a day-to-day basis. They have all tanked massively since Tuesday this week when the war came out in the open except GME. GME have some big buyers like Justin Sun, the TRX guys and Elon Musk who are helping the Reddit guys sustain the war on GME front however even GME guys are profit taking between $320 and $350. I scooped some quick flips between these positions today. They all made my target of 10% but I tried to extend to 15% and didn't get there so I took smaller greens on the way down. The Reddit guys pushed back the bears every time, but I don't see that they have the power to sustain past $400 so they will keep the tug of war going until they eventually crash GME back down to $4. How long it will take, who knows but as soon as the main Reddit guy who is $43m up on his GME position cashes out, it will collapse. Also note that GME makes most of its gains in premarket trading which is not open to us. When the market opens, it is actually a swing trade play eg GME opened at $381 today and closed at $325 so if you set a market order after closing you would have lost majorly, but in the day there were many opportunities to skim 3%, 5% or 10% here and there due to the back and forth between the Reddit guys and the shorters.

I think where one can profit solidly from the Reddit guys is their crypto plays, especially if they play coins like Dogecoins which don't have big whales that can smash the price down quickly with one sale. I think joining their stock market plays is risky cos they've already run up BB, NOK, BBBY and Beyond Meat past their value and the shorters will make you pay, for example if you joined these stocks on Tuesday based on the Reddit hype, you would be down 50% by now. They cannot back those positions like GME as they are spread too thinly.

Man, I no sleep last night, Na so I watch as the thing dey move like rocket. I will buy some more between today and tomorrow to further drive up the price.

BTW, one of my friends said a 25-year old female friend of his made a whopping $490,000 on GameStop! She first got into it when it was under $3. Now, my paddy wan upgrade am to sugar mummy grin
It's good to watch that group and be prepared to ride along with them because I think they will continue this flash mob behaviour if someone doesn't clamp down on them.

Wow. I was thinking it was Twitter guys that were pumping the thing. Maybe na the same Reddit group wey pump GameStop sha.

Anyway, I’ll follow them to know when to take additional profits when the stop pumping it
Na dem. Dey moved from GameStop to Dogecoin and Nanocoin since exchanges kept blocking them from trading GameStop. I was watching Dogecoin last night pissed that my Binance verification wasn't in place. The thing was moving per second. If I had Binance, I for 5x the thing. See how it moved in one day. It went all the way to 0.08 before calming down.

people fail to realize that, innocent people lose out

silicon valley is another bubble waiting to explode
A lot of innocent people lost out this week. Nasdaq was down 4% while all of this was going on and a lot of innocent people took hits to their portfolios, moreso the ones exposed to small caps. It was the solid old dividend paying companies that stood ground this week while a lot of emerging companies took hits. The quicker they can die the GME matter, the better for everyone.

Reddit did wallstreet on wallstreet
The Hedgefund didn't go bankrupt but they had to borrow $2.1bln to cover their position.

I hope not many percentage of 401ks are exposed to that Hedgefunds performance.

There is nothing wrong with shorting if you are convinced a company price is not reflective of their fundamentals. But in this day and age of expanding asset prices, shorting of stocks is more and more risky.

I completely agree. Boys playing the ‘pump and then dump on others’ game. Dem plenty for Reddit.
No mind them. The smart guys done take their money run while persuading the others to HODL and they will be left carrying the sack of shït when the music stops. Its the same way crypto promoters behave. Convince you it's going to $100k and let you HODL while they sell at every top and buy at every dip along the way. You're just there to provide support levels for the price.

E get one crypto dem been dey promote on that reddit group this morning called nano. I been want jump on am for a quick flip but I no get Binance verification as dem no dey sell am for Etoro and Cõinbase which are the two exchanges I'm on. The thing done go up 50% today but on its way back down. Well I'll just keep eyes on that group and see which trends are gaining momentum. A lot of trading these days is social and based on sentiment and how many other people are jumping on the same thing, so one must factor that in as well but be quick about it.

lol this one na shelaye,ziyech losses the ball alot just like havertz ,so both are not technical,ziyech losses easy passes as well especially against wolves ,but we nor hear word.
Ziyech 4 key passes Vs Wolves, Kai only one. Cos he was trying something more adventurous.

91 passes overall for Ziyech in 82 minutes, Kai only 67 in full game.

Kai no sabi pass ball or keep ball jare. Audio technique.

robinhood mirrors the shock market, when you buy a share there, you aren't buying the real thing
When you buy a share on regulated exchange, you are contributing to the real thing because they amalgamate it and pass it on to brokerages

Wow they were planning to sack Sarri? Did he already lose the dressing room at that time?
Come on guys, this is not news. I'm surprised Greatihex doubted sef.

Sarri was under serious pressure and his attitude and complaints about travelling to America for a friendly in support of anti-Semitism which Roman personally arranged did not impress Roman at all. That was the game RLC copped a major injury. That's added to poor results in the season and they didn't like his smoking image etc

Sarri even told them to sack him now since he was threatened with the sack if he does not win Europa League. Chelsea were so happy to receive £5m from Juve for someone they were about to payoff. You think Roman will let someone he wants to keep go for £5m?

The link below sheds light on the fundamental issue that led to Reddit guys shorting. cc: Ibime, Nitrogen, Nihilistjnr, Melvyn, Donjazet

https://www.radigancarter.com/dispatches/the-wall-street-insurgency
I don't agree. Too much postulating in this post and most of it amiss.

A lot of those guys in that group have resources and many have made decent change from crypto.

This is not the poor fighting back. A truly poor man will not think of opening trading account on Robin hood.

This is the fallout from crypto mentality, the same guys that pump Tesla stock beyond rational analysis, and the same guys that pump any new penny stock based on a good story rather than fundamentals. They are actually doing much damage to the rest of the small cap technology market right now.

It’s a crazy stuff. Same here, red is the colour right now. Those guys wanted to mess the big boys up. WallStreetBets forum on Reddit with over four million followers using it’s power to screw top hedge funds. Those guys can pump and dump ehn!

I won’t blame them, they believe that Wall Street guys are greedy, but they forgot that when the market is in trouble or if calamity befalls Wall Street, retail investors will eventually bear the consequences. For example, the Reddit boys made millions but the street lost billions managed (indirectly) on behalf of retail investors.

SEC is looking into it, right now Robinhood has said that participants can only sell the stock. Not sure those guys will be punished, but they may lose the gains they’ve made.

Re: J&J, I believe that the stock will go up slightly between now and next week. If you get in, I’ll suggest to hold till a week to their Earnings date (April 20).
A lot of people withdrew capital from small caps to chase GME and also institutional investors withdrew and counted their gains because those Reddit guys just highlighted the volatility of small caps. Those guys may make it so investors flee to solid blue chips once they see the market acting irrationally.

Funny enough, I have this strategy that alerts me when there are volatility swings downward and buy after a dip. I usually read to see what caused the dip and whether it's overextended but in this case GME popped up when it fell from like 150 to 100. Without looking I bought it and set my take profit at the usual 4-5%. I didn't even know a massive pump was going on so I just automated 4% on it. It's only when I read that night what was happening, I laughed that had I known I would have rode to thing to 400%.

Regards J&J, their news next week is good. Single shot vaccine that can be stored in a fridge. Na the efficacy be the Koko but I don't think they would mention it in their earnings report if it's bad news. Looking at their Turnover, I don't know if the gain they would make from the market (estimated vaccine market is $13bln) would justify more than 10% run up or whether the thing still has legs. If they dip between now and next week, I'll jump in, if not I'll stay out.

@nitrogen, have you been following the GME saga?

Those guys in a roundabout way just punished all the small caps with their action. Na red dey chase me everywhere. SEC should clamp down on them before their actions lead to a black swan event.

Also how much bump do you think J&J will get from their vaccine announcement next week? I dey reason am but I think market may have already bought the rumours and will sell the news next week.

Obvious improvement on avoiding another shambolic performance and disgraceful defeat in the hands of Wolverhampton.

It does not end at that, we were able to neutralise them in their prime and saw a match with peace of mind without the tendency of developing high blood pressure.
They are not in their prime. They are in their worst run and have conceded in the last 12 games without fail. You are just capping careless.

That's why I asked you to compare what Lampard did against them last season than compare against Lampard at his bottom. The only way from the bottom is up. You think say you wise **Asari voice**

In a 0-0 game with 80% possession, it's not beyond reason to give the MOTM to a deep lying midfielder given they controlled possession but the forwards could not score.

That is not my concern though. My concern is Havertz score.

You want to bait me into comparing a new managers bounce to Lampards last horrible month. I pray Tuchel does well, but since you want to bring your agenda to my domot, let's be fair and compare like-for-like. Below is what I will compare Tuchels input to against the same Wolves. Go ahead and compare.
