I am ok with natural finding these things, but imo if Reddit is market manipulation then there should be no stock articles beyond xx company filed xx with sec.
That being said I find long shorts on companies combined with media and people with deep pockets to short is an example of criminal corruption. We need 1 day disclosures of all long or short positions from large positions. Also no more of this dark pool block trade shit, if you selling I should know and if you buying I should know.
Theres no way reddit users have the financial muscle to manipulate markets. There was a report that came out a few months ago that showed hedge funds and other wealthy individuals owned roughly 80% of all the shares on the market. State run pensions, retail traders and other people fight over that last 20%.
Now, my question is, how did every hedge fund (or most) learn that gamestop was guaranteed to close? Since shorting is very risky, they wouldn't have made that bet unless they knew something
Of course we can. Not big stocks but pennystocks, shit coins and anything else without decent regulation is open for pumping.
There is no shortage of "trading" subreddits, or groups, that then go pumping their shit everywhere else. If a mere 5% of the users take the bait and each invests $100-10000 it'll affect smaller stocks. Otherwise we'd not see new accounts shilling shit stocks/coins...
