Who would you rather really be in a mess with.........the little guy or the big guy?

Depends on the situation. Would you rather have one large customer or 25,000 smaller customers. I've done business in both situations, where the one big guy is less work to communicate and organize, it is a disaster when they decide they are severely cutting your business.

Robinhood could really have a mess if people can claim they sold out of fear of the lock out turning on them and losing what they had gained since people could only close out their accounts and froze out a lot of options. Some may have sold just to grab what they could.

And the effect it had on other investors on other platforms sicne it clearly affected the stock price.

That’s the least surprising thing I’ve seen all day. Elites are good at winning.

If this trade doesn't bankrupt them, hopefully the lawsuits will.

Add AMC and NOK to that list too

I will literally moan out loud (maybe even make a mess) if there's something crazy like the SEC or Supreme Court that forces Robinhood to bring them back open.

If they were in margin, they may have justification for doing that. If they weren't, time for them to start bunkering down.

 

[ISUCyclones2015]

This might unfortunately be totally legal and why the concept of a short squeeze works anyway. If you're trading on margin, lots of times the broker can force you to sell based on your agreements

I don’t even care that I lost a few hundred on NOK. It’ll be worth it when these f’ers go to jail. This should be a wake up call for America if you didn’t already know. Stock market is rigged

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Btw I’m holding until it’s gone. I’ll be in that class action.

Yeah, the comments on the tweet indicate it was a margin call

And it's thawed again

Lol well then.... sorry Ted.

You didn't lose until you sell like a paper-handed-*****!

Nokia was the **** in 1997.

Who knows if this is true, but...

I don't have twitter so was uncertain. You have two options with margin calls from my experience (commodity world but should be somewhat similar). You either get the money in there (usually given 3 days) or they close you out.

Who woulda thunk the current White House would side with the elites. Shocking. (If true, of course)

I guess when the White House said they were watching the situation, what they really meant is they were going to squash the little guy.
