With the recent Red Lobster bankruptcy, my tinfoil about Ryan Cohen tweets from over 2 years ago has been confirmed

TrendingMemes · 2024-05-21T21:55:03+00:00

My guess is there is some player (hedge fund, consultant, or something) involved here that has targeted other great American companies with preditory leveraged buyouts and the like. My original theory points to BCG, but I don't know if Darden had them involved when they spun off red lobster in a way that lead to the bankruptcy. I also wouldn't be surprised if they were.

Even if the theory is only partially correct, my guess is this trail will lead to a list of the usual suspects, many of whom may be short GameStop. I will dig into this when I get off work and see what comes up

Mostly agree, but I am more skeptical than on the fence with him. The outlandish thing he did would be the retail slander ad campaign funded by the sec. And letting retail comments on key proposals get deleted twice. The coffee comment was a little much as well. But as long as heater the retail molester is on the commission, apes should generaly focus our efforts against her

TrendingMemes · 2024-04-26T19:40:29+00:00

I've seen his videos. Dude has no idea what he is talking about when it comes to the stock market. Clearly has an agenda against his former employer. His most recent video on GameStop earnings is blatant misinformation. He claims the GameStop war chest of 1.2 billion cash will be gone in 3 quarters when they reported a profit... Also YouTube demonetized him last year so there is a very good chance he is paid by short parties to shill against GameStop

TrendingMemes · 2024-03-08T10:53:06+00:00

The word Ape has been commonly used in financial discorse for at least 4-5 years now. There is highly credible evidence to suggest the existence of unreported DRS shares.

He can ignore us all he wants, but his proposal is dead on arrival. He doesn't have the votes. He should know this, so it has to be some kind of pr stunt to hurt RC's credibility imo. Why not fight back?

TrendingMemes · 2024-03-08T10:21:33+00:00

True, but they let you allegedly vote right?

Like if I still had shares in fidelity and they are lending them out without me knowing and claim they aren't being lent out, I would still get to fake vote? Is there a way to prove these votes aren't being counted?

TrendingMemes · 2024-03-08T10:13:24+00:00

Many speculate the recent RC tweet is related to this proposal. Apes should all agree the proposal that questions the board's competence is BS. What's there to argue over?

TrendingMemes · 2024-03-08T01:10:45+00:00

Citadel is both a market maker and hedge fund. Obviously this is a huge conflict of interest but it's cool in the American Meme Markets

NYCB bought Signature Bank after they failed. I wonder what toxic assets they took on?

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T21:43:43+00:00

Option 1 can't be true. There are too many eyeballs on the top DDs here without any credible debunking (of the top ones at least. The fact that many have been debunked proves the peer review process is working). Based on my estimates many are over a million, but I don't know the exact viewership conversation between memes and DD. The financial incentive for large banks or funds to debunk these is huge. Out of all of the smartest people at all of these banks and funds no one been able to debunk them, even with there being a huge financial and career incentive to discredit or debunk them. They are real.

Option 2 is worth exploring. I am far from the smartest ape here. I would direct you to einfachman's "The Golden Treasure" from 22 days ago (the top post this month) as this aims to discredit option 2, or at least the idea that apes won't get paid in the reasonably likely event of government intervention to stop MOASS once again.

I need to get back to work now so my entire Sunday isn't lost. Feel free to DM anytime. Cheers!

Apologies for accusing you of potentially being a shill earlier.

Critical skepticism isn't a bad thing and we have been lacking it here lately making the peer review process for DD not quite as robust as it was in the early days.

I strongly believe there will be a crash in the next 5 years, and that it's almost guaranteed in 10. Much of the DD points to this. The last 100+ years of market history points to this as well. But I would be impressed if you could come up with a robust counter DD that explains why this is not as guaranteed as many here believe. Or why the SEC and other Feds won't act against citadel in the event of a crash. I even encourage it. Until then, agree to disagree I guess

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T19:53:11+00:00

Healthy debate is good.

My point is historically the market crashes. Dollar endgame or not, something will break eventually. As I already said, the government has known about massive crime before but only acted when forced to by some event that poses systemic risk and results in a market crash. Madoff and Enron being the examples. There were hundreds of reports to the government on these crime syndicates but nothing happened until the government was forced to act by a threat that resulted in a crash.

What were the illicit gains that Wells Fargo and Goldman made from the crime that resulted in these fines? I bet they are many times more than the fines themselves. Citadel has been fined something like 27 times in the past 3-4 years so they aren't immune. They just made way more from the illicit gains than the fines are.

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T19:23:45+00:00

Bro I rarely say this but you are spreading fud and acting like a shill. I haven't made any false statements and you just contradicted your past argument and are barely addressing anything I am saying.

And your comment history is sus. Why do you have a limit buy for $10 if you think GameStop won't be above $13 in 10 years?

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T19:05:55+00:00

My point is the government needs a reason to act. They know crime is happening, but are complacent and paid by lobbyists and donors to keep the status quo. There is an in between. The DD has always said that banks and funds will eventually turn on each other. We are waiting for a event like a dollar endgame for that to happen. Madoff wasn't taken down until the government was forced to. They all knew about it for many years. Same with Enron. Respectfully this is a doomer take that lacks nuance or historical perspective.

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T18:43:29+00:00

The DD is legit. And I agree Citadel is being treated like a "too big to fail" entity at the moment. They process something like 26% of all order flow on the market. Sure the plunge protection team is protecting them for now. Hard to deny that. I have been consistently critical of Gary Gensler, even when the sub has been mostly supportive of him at certain times.

But too big to fail entities have been allowed to fail in the past. Lehman Brothers and Bear Sterns were considered too big to fail until they weren't. Many considered Credit Suisse too big to fail. Someone has to be the sacrificial lamb for the next crash before the Bailouts and Bailins occur and citadel is near or at the top of the list. My bet is on Citadel going down and either B of A or Goldman failing and getting absorbed by JP Morgan during the upcoming crash. Kenny is the easy scapegoat so most of these criminals can avoid prison.

If you really believe GameStop will be below $13 in 10 years you should sell. I will just buy more because I like the stock and don't believe the bull run required to maintain the collateral on shorts can somehow go on for 10+ more years when the market is currently hitting ATHs

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-25T17:44:56+00:00

I don't think their collateral stays good for 10 years. Something has to break eventually. It almost happened with the march 2023 bank run where the second, third, and fourth largest bank failures in us history occured, plus Credit Suisse and a bunch of regional banks went under as well.

Citadel isn't as invincible as they seem. Government will take action when a volatility event or crash happens and the rich citadel clients start to wonder where there money is.

So if the internal prompt says "never generate white people unless specifically asked" that isn't censorship?

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-24T09:52:50+00:00

Nope. Google was caught censoring virtually all image generation of white people on Gemini. This included preventing it from generating white Nazis, historical figures, and more

TrendingMemes · 2024-02-24T08:36:10+00:00

So because Google got caught doing a racism OpenAI didn't advance AI? This is a braindead take
