Funny, but questionable legality there.The whole WBS vs Hedhe fund thing is crazy.
Another good read on it
Funny, but questionable legality there.
Nothing wrong with grouping together to buy stock, grouping to attempt to influence the price is risky ground.
I know this is done by hedge funds all the time, but they obviously claim to not be attempting to alter the price. Openly stating it as an aim could be an issue.
I'll tell you what should be illegal - white font on a black background.
Free market evangelists are really not being very free market about this. It's fukin hilarious how full of brick they are.
And I have no desire to see a market crash as I'm not an anarchist but at the same time I just find the absolute double standards of people laughable.
You're right, but intent is notoriously difficult to prove when it comes to conviction.The funds do it but don't say it so get away with it. The legality shouldn't be driven by whether they are open about their intentions, it is about judging the intentions based on evidence. The Hedge funds make profit by burying business by shorting, the nerdy gamblers have done the same on WSB it seems. I do not see how the law would be different because they stated their intention.
What is interesting is, that suddenly the ethics of a thing practiced for decades is a thing when the powerful folk are impacted.

Stating publicly that it's your intent is not a great move.
As with all markets, some have got out in front and made a fortune whilst everyone caught up.I'm with you on this. But prosecuting some nerds won't matter really as others will find ways of doing it quietly on Telegram and the like. And making it illegal will means the Hedge funds won't be able to do it. They are stuck.
