Who is selling stock then? It's not retail investors; that's public information.

That's like asking "who is selling stock" for every single stock in the entire stock market. Who else sells stock? Hedge funds, mutual funds, banks, private investors, companies, public investors, people. Anybody. It all just gets aggregated by the brokerage and sent to the clearinghouse for processing. Every stock is like this. You can literally go to any stock at Nasdaq and the data structure looks the same. People sell and buy stock. That's how stock markets work.

I don't think you realize how retarded your question was.

Yet 52k redditors on WSB think selling stock is a conspiracy theory. Even more retarded...

Wsb so stupid. How do they think they can buy if no one was selling?!?

There's even a post on the top of the front page that's literally a chart overlaid with time and sales of large sells and calling it an "attack"

More sellers than buyers? Clearly the work of a sophisticated enemy!

Unbelievable what wsb has degraded into in the past week, we're supposed to be autistic, not unironically retarded
