I'm just imagining a board of investors facepalming as what they expected as big wins turned out into a shit show because some guys happened to make their stocks trendy.

Stockmarket laws do seem deliberately written so that it's ok to manipulate the market so you can make a profit but that others aren't allowed to manipulate it to stop you.
Says alot about our society that, so long as a profit is made that's all that matters.

Can someone explain to me how this is manipulation? I'm sure citron, and some others would like to call it that but I don't see manipulation happening here. I'm no stock expert... Citron sold short, some users on reddit bought the stock, created a short squeeze which made the GME worth even more. That's just trading stocks... Sounds to me like citron & co are just mad because some random people won this round.

Something about her mentioning they would get the SEC involved just rings really fucking hollow considering their failures in 2008. Fuck her and fuck the SEC.

Exactly! I’d argue the restrictions that brokerage firms are putting into place is illegal. People can buy whatever they want with their own money. Sure they can decide no margin as that is not your own money. But any other restriction is illegal IMO
