Changes in Superimperialism
https://www.unz.com/mhudson/changes-in-superimperialism/
“They’re trying to do what the world began to talk about doing in 1933 at the London Economic Conference: “How do we make a fair system?””
One of FDR’s first acts as president was to pull out of the London Economic Conference in 1933.
As Hudson goes on to explain, USA’s agenda in WWI was to bankrupt/destroy Germany, from whom US stole gold and technology as well as lives; and in WWII US agenda was to finish the job — destroy British empire.
The “greatest generation” were witting or unwitting accomplices to a great act of theft and destruction, and we, their progeny have been living off stolen loot all our lives.
Now, the chickens are coming home to roost.
I’m asking a question.
Your question rests on a false assumption — that I simply must possess magical powers that enable me to accurately perceive the internal mental processes of Fink and his minions, thus allowing me to accurately discern exactly why they decided to slightly reduce their massive stake in GME. I’m flattered by your faith in my [nonexistent] powers of mental telepathy, but your question is simply not answerable in its present form.
Now you answer my question: When did you stop beating your wife? Don’t dodge or evade — I want to know the exact date.. It’s a simple question — just answer it.
It's not clear why you believe so strongly that I share your claimed ability to read the Finkster's mind. I suggest that you either:
Why DID BR [He's referring to Larry Fink's BlackRock/ Fed/ Treasury Dept cabal] downsize GME
I’m asking a question. Can you answer it? If you can’t, just say so.
I’m simply pointing out that unloading a stock at $19 is stupid if you “know” that it will shoot up to $430.
The destructive effects of stock speculators are greatly exaggerated, particularly since most people don’t own many stocks. A much bigger problem is property speculation. The property market is bigger than the stock market and property booms and crashes have a much bigger impact on ordinary people’s lives.
Property speculation is destructive because it makes housing less affordable for young couples and thus retards the native birth rate. The only way to curb it is to cut off the supply of easy credit to property speculators. The free market just doesn’t work with property because the supply of land is finite. If you want to buy rental property you should have to stump up a 40 percent deposit. No one should be allowed to buy a strategic or restricted asset with a 10 percent deposit.
Why DID BR [He’s referring to Larry Fink’s BlackRock/ Fed/ Treasury Dept cabal] downsize GME
It’s not clear why you believe so strongly that I share your claimed ability to read the Finkster’s mind. I suggest that you either:
1. Explain any purported empirical basis for this odd delusion
2. Exercise your supposed powers of mental telepathy to ascertain the answer yourself
You’re welcome. Always glad to help.
I don’t know much about stonk trading, but I sure as hell know when people are lying on television, and the talking heads have been spewing relentless spin since this story hit the MSM last week. Today’s meme is that the “short squeeze is over”, meaning it happened last Friday. Interestingly, not only the MSM but also ZeroHedge says the squeeze is over and GME can only go down in price from here. I know ZeroHedge is an outlet for bullshit yet usually their bullshit is contrarian to MSM bullshit. Yet in this scenario they appear to have each others’ backs. ZeroHedge was instrumental in hyping the “silver squeeze” that was disowned by WSB yet served to cause disarray and confusion all weekend. Now ZH is spinning stories that WSB are actually useful idiots for Wall Street whales.
If the squeeze happened on Friday, then it was interrupted and short-circuited by the brokerages imposing trading bans and restrictions. Which means that it didn’t really happen – either the squeeze was kneecapped by fraudsters OR it is yet to come.
However if the squeeze ended on Friday, and the hedgies covered their shorts, and reduced their short exposure in $GME from an impossible 140% of float to a merely untenable 50% of float, then why are they still lying so hard, and why is ZH now providing cover for Wall Street? At best a massive fraud was bailed out by an obvious crime. At worst the fraud has not yet been bailed out, and honest diamond handed retarded autist ape Redditors still stand to bankrupt the shorts. An honest bet made against a dishonest bet could now destroy the entire dishonest economy.
This is not a financial advice.
It was not my intention to cheer on, and I hope there is a little humor in everything I say. As @saneclownposse got from it.
That being said I don’t think the market will ever not be a casino, and one member told me I had better odds at roulette than timing put options.
With regard to the members, I generally try to hold “live and let live.” But you’re right the situation is no longer tenable.
My usual advice and thoughts on the overall situation is usually as follows: preserve your wealth and judiciously grow it, have kids – many if possible, find the pews a few times a month or a meditation cushion if that’s your thing, be vigilant of course, but not paranoid, be informed and curious (sites like this are good and satisfying to the mind), see the country…
You probably already know this. There are many greater thinkers and writers here than I, so I will try to finish what I’ve got to say here.
Aside: I am more interested in Bitcoin these days. The Winklevoss twins seem like good guys, and I think their read on the long term stability and worth of the dollar is spot on.

“It’s not just RH, Robinhood was copying the moves TD Ameritrade made. Don’t think this about one brokerage…it’s much bigger”
TD Ameritrade did not limit ownership or trading of the stock in question. It did LIMIT the sale and purchase of options and margin for buying the stock… completely different than what Robinhood did.
The lithium supply is more constrained than oil. There will not be enough lithium to convert to all EV. In addition, as was pointed out by another poster, you need electricity to charge your batteries. KKKalifornia can’t keep the lights on now, so how are they going to do it with an additional 10-20 million EV? How would you like to have your power turned off due to wildfires, and not have your car charged?
How does a hedge fund billionaire getting wiped out make that process impossible?
By having so much leverage and derivative exposure to trigger system-wide collateral calls that wipe out the banks and freeze the payment processing systems, I guess. For those of us who still use cash and aren’t afraid to deal directly with farmers, that might not be such an issue. TPTB might hate us for our Freedumbs™️, but they don’t fear us as much as they fear what the FSA (not the former UK regulator) will do when their EBT cards stop working.

Thanks for the reply, if people stop and really think about what our company model has built for us/and what rights they are taking from us nowadays, they would understand a lot more about the pernicious reality of our businesses getting hijacked. All of Western colonies were largely built up by companies like the hudson bay colony, jamestown, the East India Trading Company, etc. These were large enterprises that built the backbone of international trade. Even early adventures of Marco Polo was business trade.
Now thanks to Affirmative Action, and “Equal Protection Rights” our businesses have been taken over by those not serving the interests of Western Civilization.
That some people are so emotionally invested in the continued hegemony of Larry Fink's BlackRock/ Fed/ Treasury Dept organization, that they are immediately enraged by any mention of the simple fact that Fink's cabal continues to own the largest stake in GameStop, and feel compelled to immediately (and histrionically) leap to Fink's defense, whining "B-b-but he should have made even more billions!"Interesting.Replies: @Paperback Writer, @Paperback Writer

Exactly right. Repeatedly referring to that fiction ignores the obvious fact that the state of battery technology makes battery driven vehicles useless for most purposes regardless of whether battery production could be scaled up to produce as many as needed or that a grid sufficient to provide energy for even a partial replacement of all private vehicles existed.
Ask Mefobills. He’s the one who has to repeat that line twice in one short comment.
Yeah, that same piece is on the Times of Israel and JTA as well.
Haaretz already noticed:
It is always a Talmudic dialectic.
The dominant argument for capitalism in the 20th century after the 1930s Great Depression was that it “produced a great middle class.” Real U.S. wages had risen even during the Depression. However, the U.S. working class fought harder for major economic gains in the 1930s than at any other time in U.S. history. The Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) then organized millions into labor unions utilizing militants from two socialist parties and a communist party. Those parties were then achieving their largest-ever numerical strengths and social influences. That is how and why together the unions and the parties won the establishment of Social Security, federal unemployment compensation, a minimum wage, and a huge federal jobs program: all firsts in U.S. history. The second fact is that capitalists in the 1930s and afterward fought harder than ever against each and every working-class advance.
No advanced economics is required to grasp that divisions, bitterness, resentment, and anger flow from such a persistently widening gap between haves and have-nots.
In capitalist enterprises, tiny minorities of the persons involved occupy positions of leadership, command, and control. The owner, the owner’s family, the board of directors, or the major shareholders comprise such minorities: the class of employers. Opposite them are the vast majorities: the class of employees. The employer class determines, exclusively, what the enterprise produces, what technology it uses, where production occurs, and what is done with its net revenue. The employee class must live with the consequences of employers’ decisions from which it is excluded. The employer class uses some of its profits to buy and control politics.
To solve the extreme inequality of U.S. capitalism requires systemic change, an end to capitalism’s specific class structure pitting employers against employees. Excerpts from Richard Wolff i

Interesting point.
I kind of wondered what happened to those videos as the campaign season proceeded.
I haven’t looked for them lately. Someone had made a compilation showing about 10 different incidents and other very weird public statements made by Biden. Like, is this guy crazy? Literally, out of his mind? Autistic? Doesn’t grasp how nutty he comes across, how far out of bounds?

BlackRock downsized its ownership of GME stock in December, selling when it was $18.84 per stock. They're making money off the squeeze but less than they would have if they'd held.
Reuters is reporting that the giant asset manager, BlackRock [aka the Fed/ the Treasury Dept], “owned about 9.2 million shares, or a roughly 13% stake, in GameStop as of Dec. 31, 2020,” and could have made upwards of $2.4 billion on the rise in the stock since the end of December”

Interesting.
Didn’t Ryan the Chewy guy mount some kind of boardroom putsch against the remarkably non-tribal Sherman setup? But adroitly dodged being in the hot seat if and when it all goes t1ts?
Yeah that looks like a threat of a hostile takeover/ proxy fight if GameStop management didn’t do what he wanted (multiple seats on board, more emphasis on digital, etc.)
And guess what happened on January 11?
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1326380/000132638021000006/a991-gamestopxpressrelease.htm
“GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) (“GameStop” or the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into an agreement with RC Ventures LLC (“RC Ventures”) that will advance the refreshment of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). RC Ventures, which is one of the Company’s largest stockholders, is managed by Ryan Cohen. The agreement provides for the immediate appointment of three new directors – Alan Attal, Ryan Cohen and Jim Grube”
[Grube and Attal are Cohen associates/ fellow Chewyites]
Interesting timing…
Did he and his associates start this whole pumping operation back in November or thereabouts?
It would be pretty hard to prove that, since all of Cohen’s maneuvers are consistent with a takeover rather than a pump and dump scheme. The obvious way for him to realize a big profit would be to sell now, but even under the current system, that might be hard to pull off without consequences.
What is fairly clear that several accounts on wallstreetbets were pushing GameStop pretty hard from Nov-Dec on:
https://web.archive.org/web/20201208222656if_/https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/k9apx5/gme_q3_call_thoughts_on_the_clash_between_cohen/
Calls Cohen a “boy genius,” “amazing businessman,” a guy who “beat Amazon,” “outworked and outsmarted everyone,” etc.
Cohen is going to be a legend because of it after he executes this plan, triggers the MOASS, and takes control of GME to convert it to a tech-first gaming juggernaut
Any connection between Cohen and the guys shilling for him (and GameStop) on WSB? Who knows?
But even if he holds onto his shares, the company he took over, and his plan for it, “just happened” to get an insane level of publicity out of this story — right after he moved in. Huh.
Though Sherman’s not exactly being driven into the poorhouse by this, since he owns something like 1.2 million shares…

Making money is a privilege for Jews only, everyone else can only bail them out through our taxes when they get too greedy and bring the whole thing down.
Read Romans 2:28-29 for the definition of real Jews and then read Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 for the definition of false Jews. Do not be deceived.
They'd be better off filing a bunch of individual arbitration claims. Vox Day has had some bad takes in the past (he got pretty deep into Qtardianism, for one), but he's got a good point here:
Meanwhile, someone needs to sue Robinhood out of existence.
Selling shares people own outright I consider theft at a minimum and attempted murder at a maximum, depending on the situation.
That is interesting. That guy (originally doxxed by CNBC, I think) is likely to get thrown under the bus by the time they wind up this whole narrative, and his backer(s) will never be publicly identified. In the meantime they've got a great "little guys band together to take on the hedge fund oligarchs! David vs. Goliath! Robin Hood!*" vs. "muh 'antisemitic' nazis/ bro culture" dialectic going.

And BlackRock, which is the biggest single shareholder of GameStop?
On July 29, the SEC announced that it would extend its original 10-day restriction on "naked" short sales of 19 major financial companies through August 12. Analysts across the board agree that this particular SEC rule, by itself, will have little effect except to raise transaction costs for those wishing to short Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, and other powerhouses.However, in conjunction with the Fed's recent lending operations to investment banks and Fannie and Freddie, the restriction on naked short sales makes perfect sense as part of a process of getting the public used to federal/private partnerships that would have been unthinkable before the credit crisis — especially from a "laissez-faire" administration.
Unfortunately, naked short selling is not nearly as exciting as it sounds. It simply refers to a situation where a trader short sells a quantity of shares before he has actually borrowed them from an owner.Some of the commentary on naked short selling has become downright silly. The naked short seller is not violating the laws of logic; certain bloggers write as if we should fear a rip in the space-time continuum centered on Wall Street. If a particular stock is illiquid, and a trader wishes to speculate on an anticipated hourly move in the share price, nothing is harmed by allowing him to sell 1,000 shares and then buy them back 45 minutes later; the broker can simply debit or credit his account accordingly.Of course, what is really happening here is that the broker is extending a form of credit to the trader, and the buyers of the "naked" shares (i.e., the counterparties to the initial short sale) are in turn trusting the brokerage. Because those 1,000 shares weren't actually located and borrowed before the short sale, that transaction can't be completed until the trader closes his position and buys back 1,000 shares (possibly from other individuals). At that point, any of the counterparties to the original short sale who maintained their purchase, can gain title to the shares out of the 1,000 the trader bought back when closing his position.
Replies: @Twodees Partain, @James Forrestal
This raises an interesting question: if the restrictions on naked short selling won't do anything except throw red tape into the works, then why did the SEC do it?By itself, the move doesn't really benefit the fat cat Wall Street bankers, because (as we've argued above) an insolvent institution won't be helped much by bans on short sales, especially if those bans only apply to naked short salesThe answer, it seems, is that the government is gradually eroding the remaining barriers between an explicit federal/corporate partnership with large, politically connected firms. With the bailout of Bear Stearns, the announcement of possible Fed purchases of Fannie and Freddie equity, and the restrictions on naked shorting of nineteen financial firms, the government is, step by step, desensitizing the public.In light of what has already happened, a basically irrelevant move to prohibit naked shorting of nineteen firms won't lead to riots. But it is a necessary step along the way to announcements that would have led to massive protests had they occurred at step one.
From your second link:
Suppose stock XYZ is trading at $50, but Jim the Speculator believes tomorrow’s news will contain something very unfavorable for the stock — and the rest of the market isn’t seeing things the way Jim is.
Or suppose that Melvin the hedge fund manager knows that tomorrow’s “news” will be unfavorable for the stock — cuz he’s gonna be on CNBC talking s–t about it…
Jim [Melvin] can borrow, say, 100 shares of XYZ from a stockholder
This description is significantly misleading in at least two ways. Melvin doesn’t borrow the shares — he rents them. And he doesn’t rent them from the stockholder (we’ll call him “Mike”); he rents them from Mike’s broker — typically without the stockholder’s knowledge or consent. (Specific consent, that is — it’s probably buried in the TOS somewhere). Sure, margin accounts make the issue of “ownership” between the client and the broker a little cloudy, but it still seems pretty questionable.
Let’s look at a more concrete analogy to illustrate how strange this is in terms of how the concept of ownership is typically understood:
-David owns a combination parking garage/ used car dealership.
-Mike buys a car from David and pays to park it in the garage.
-While Mike is on vacation, David rents out Mike’s car to Melvin, pockets the money, and doesn’t tell Mike.
-Meanwhile, Melvin’s rental contract with David gives him the “right” to sell Mke’s car to Jeff (or anyone else) during the rental period — which he promptly does.
-Until Mike comes back from vacation, somehow both he and Jeff “own” the car.
-When the rental period ends/ Mike comes back from vacation, Melvin is obligated to return an equivalent car (same make, model, and year) to David, so that Mike can continue to “own” and use his car.
Wut?
This is a pretty good explanation of how the system works (and doesn’t) in the GameStop case:

Interesting to note that your average sports book has a better system for laying off risk than Robinhood. RH’s problem is not just the volatility, it’s that too many of their customers are “betting on the same team,” exposing them to excessive risk if that team loses. Bookies aren’t gamblers — they just want to collect the vig.

” An eruv is a symbolic boundary created with a string of fishing wire typically hung from a series of utility poles or other structures. The eruv creates a safe space for Orthodox Jews to carry certain items they otherwise would be forbidden to carry while outside the home on the Sabbath.”

Interesting. I certainly welcomed the advent of free trading on TD Ameritrade! Which gobbled up Scottrade, where I had my first account.
TD Ameritrade has now merged with Charles Schwab.
No doubt about it, free trades really free one up to experiment! Or even do a bit of day trading. Especially in IRA account. No obvious downsides that I can see. For now.
I have wondered what Ameritrade’s business model is.
Perhaps being “data-mined” is a worthwhile barter for not having to pay fees and commissions of all kinds.
Regarding the Khazarian bandit capitalism you describe, I do think the originator of this form of “growing” a corporation sprang from the forehead of John D. Rockefeller. And J. P. Morgan.
But perhaps the seeds were planted by wayward Khazes.
Keith Patrick Gill has the typical kazarian schnoz and he certainly behaves like one:
"The largest brokerage firms on Wall Street would never allow a Registered Rep to use multiple anonymous user names and promote a $5 stock to a mass public audience because there would be no way to know if it was a suitable investment for the level of risk the individual person could afford to take. The bulk of lawsuits that are brought, and won, against brokerage firms are for “failure to supervise.”
Gill’s YouTube videos did offer a scrolling statement at the end to the effect that this was not meant to be personal investment advice. But if it wasn’t, why was he putting it out on a mass medium like YouTube.
Gill has another potential problem. According to media reports, Gill was posting copies of his brokerage statements at E-Trade showing his GameStop position making millions of dollars in a short span of time while he was employed at MassMutual. Under FINRA Rule 3210, a licensed broker must first get permission from the broker-dealer where they are employed to open a trading account at another firm. "
The largest brokerage firms on Wall Street would never allow a Registered Rep to use multiple anonymous user names and promote a $5 stock to a mass public audience
Interesting that a relatively obscure blog like Wall Street on Parade is quick to point out the obvious issue — this Gill guy is a licensed professional actively employed in the industry, who’s anonymously hyping stocks that he has a personal stake in, while posing as an “amateur investor.” But accounts from mainstream “news” outlets? They seem to ignore it entirely, presenting very sympathetic profiles of Gill:

” the collapse of the financial system”
This is the same threat that was used to terrorize the public into bailing out the banks in 2008, but what does it mean, exactly? If the financial system “collapses”, does it mean that when I go to buy a gallon of milk tomorrow, it won’t be there?
Won’t productive people doing productive things still be creating wealth which will be measured in dollars which will be traded for the productive results of the efforts of others? How does a hedge fund billionaire getting wiped out make that process impossible?

Intelligent players should take their profits and invest a small part (they can afford to lose) in put options and then wait for the price to crash.
A guy who just lost $1B is going to call in all his favours and crucify the upstarts. Fifteen guys who are down billions will definitely have a very toxic response to their opponents.

Puts on Gamestop are now very cheap. Everyone thinks the Reddit crowd is going to prevail and the amateurs are driving the price up, in my opinion, paying enormous amounts for a company that loses money.
One young guy I know sold his pickup and bought on Friday luckily earning $13K. He thinks it is going to explode to $1000 / share so he is holding. In typical fashion when if it gets to $1000 the prediction will be $1500/ share. It might but when the crash comes, the novices with stars in their eyes will have tears in their eyes.
I remember when every expert was predicting gold at $5K an ounce and oil at $500 a barrel LOL
It may be morally wrong for Wall Street to plunge a stock but I am sure the fellows with the clean white shirts will exact a terrible revenge. When their billions are on the line they dont fuck around.
In the meantime my put options stand ready to capture the crash and burn scenario. Time will tell !
Whose 401K portfolio has gone up 400%, like the stock market over the last decade? The market is rigged so that those profits flow up to a few at the top. When a group of Redditt investors gave those market manipulators a taste of their own medicine, they whined and trading was suspended. But when they do the same to the masses on a daily basis it is just considered a natural market, which should not be interfered with. One rule for hi-speed traders and other insiders, another rule for the masses.
Meanwhile, someone needs to sue Robinhood out of existence.
They’d be better off filing a bunch of individual arbitration claims. Vox Day has had some bad takes in the past (he got pretty deep into Qtardianism, for one), but he’s got a good point here:
https://voxday.blogspot.com/2021/01/breaking-robinhood.html
“Unlike AAA, FINRA has no rule allowing an arbitrator to declare an arbitration to be “frivolous”, and furthermore, the right to file even frivolous arbitrations is protected by the Federal Arbitration Act and the Supreme Court rulings Steelworkers and Schein.”
“Robinhood’s terms of use specify California law. CCP Section 1284.3 prevents any consumer from being charged anything for an arbitration proceeding beyond the initial filing fee.”
Seems to be a number of Robinhood customers claiming that their positions were closed out involuntarily by RH:
https://www.theverge.com/2021/1/28/22254857/robinhood-gamestop-amc-shares-sold-surprised-users
“On Wednesday, Robinhood warned some investors with options in GameStop and AMC that it may automatically sell off their stakes to reduce risk, the spokesperson said. But these investors told The Verge they didn’t have options in GameStop or AMC and hadn’t purchased the stocks on margin. They had purchased the shares outright, they said, and were planning to hold onto them.”
Sounds pretty shady if true. Maybe they were cash transactions, but from a margin account?
On July 29, the SEC announced that it would extend its original 10-day restriction on "naked" short sales of 19 major financial companies through August 12. Analysts across the board agree that this particular SEC rule, by itself, will have little effect except to raise transaction costs for those wishing to short Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, and other powerhouses.However, in conjunction with the Fed's recent lending operations to investment banks and Fannie and Freddie, the restriction on naked short sales makes perfect sense as part of a process of getting the public used to federal/private partnerships that would have been unthinkable before the credit crisis — especially from a "laissez-faire" administration.
Unfortunately, naked short selling is not nearly as exciting as it sounds. It simply refers to a situation where a trader short sells a quantity of shares before he has actually borrowed them from an owner.Some of the commentary on naked short selling has become downright silly. The naked short seller is not violating the laws of logic; certain bloggers write as if we should fear a rip in the space-time continuum centered on Wall Street. If a particular stock is illiquid, and a trader wishes to speculate on an anticipated hourly move in the share price, nothing is harmed by allowing him to sell 1,000 shares and then buy them back 45 minutes later; the broker can simply debit or credit his account accordingly.Of course, what is really happening here is that the broker is extending a form of credit to the trader, and the buyers of the "naked" shares (i.e., the counterparties to the initial short sale) are in turn trusting the brokerage. Because those 1,000 shares weren't actually located and borrowed before the short sale, that transaction can't be completed until the trader closes his position and buys back 1,000 shares (possibly from other individuals). At that point, any of the counterparties to the original short sale who maintained their purchase, can gain title to the shares out of the 1,000 the trader bought back when closing his position.

This raises an interesting question: if the restrictions on naked short selling won't do anything except throw red tape into the works, then why did the SEC do it?By itself, the move doesn't really benefit the fat cat Wall Street bankers, because (as we've argued above) an insolvent institution won't be helped much by bans on short sales, especially if those bans only apply to naked short salesThe answer, it seems, is that the government is gradually eroding the remaining barriers between an explicit federal/corporate partnership with large, politically connected firms. With the bailout of Bear Stearns, the announcement of possible Fed purchases of Fannie and Freddie equity, and the restrictions on naked shorting of nineteen financial firms, the government is, step by step, desensitizing the public.In light of what has already happened, a basically irrelevant move to prohibit naked shorting of nineteen firms won't lead to riots. But it is a necessary step along the way to announcements that would have led to massive protests had they occurred at step one.
At that point, any of the counterparties to the original short sale who maintained their purchase, can gain title to the shares out of the 1,000 the trader bought back when closing his position.
How does this work out when the original short involves 140% of the shares on the market?
Corporations and financial participation existed in Sweden as early as the 13th century (then it was mostly about mining), without any Wallstreet flimflam.
Didn’t you forget to mention the Battery cross-over point, where ICE cars are roadkill.?
Tesla is a fraud, but a fraud with a Fed put. As if wompy wheels, self-igniting batteries, suicidal FSD and the never ending drama of quality control deficiencies weren't enough, it is Musk's hucksterism, thuggery and blackmail of its employees that really tells the whole story. Musk should have been put in jail by the SEC years ago.
"Tesla became one of the most shorted stocks of all time, forcing the price lower and causing Elon major headaches on top of his struggles with Twitter and the SEC. But the Tesla diehards believed in the company and trusted that demand for the vehicles would materialize eventually. When Tesla unexpectedly posted a quarterly profit, everything changed. The stock rocketed higher."
“@elonmusk is the greatest entrepreneur of our generation. He’s trying to save Planet Earth with sustainable energy…”
Muskrat hasn’t said a single word about where the electricity for his bumper cars is supposed to come from, nor how it is to be transported (we would require at least 10× the current capacity in terms of both generation and transmission), nor how the rare earths in the batteries are sourced, nor how they can eventually be recycled (battery composition is kept secret); and at closer scrutiny, his “business” is mostly selling CO2 certificates to people who are actually producing cars and are now being screwed over by Greta Tunastink and her ilk.
It would be fairer to say he is the greatest charlatan of a very lost generation, trying to save his obviously damaged self-esteem with very unsustainable scamming, adored by people whose knowledge of science and technology does not cover the difference between radio waves and radioactivity, and whose knowledge of economics focuses on Scrooge McDuck.

It would be pretty hard to prove that, since all of Cohen's maneuvers are consistent with a takeover rather than a pump and dump scheme. The obvious way for him to realize a big profit would be to sell now, but even under the current system, that might be hard to pull off without consequences.

Here is the wallstreetonparade article:
“The largest brokerage firms on Wall Street would never allow a Registered Rep to use multiple anonymous user names and promote a $5 stock to a mass public audience because there would be no way to know if it was a suitable investment for the level of risk the individual person could afford to take. The bulk of lawsuits that are brought, and won, against brokerage firms are for “failure to supervise.”

Keith Patrick Gill has the typical kazarian schnoz and he certainly behaves like one:
Interesting that a relatively obscure blog like Wall Street on Parade is quick to point out the obvious issue -- this Gill guy is a licensed professional actively employed in the industry, who's anonymously hyping stocks that he has a personal stake in, while posing as an "amateur investor." But accounts from mainstream "news" outlets? They seem to ignore it entirely, presenting very sympathetic profiles of Gill:

“Reuters is reporting that the giant asset manager, BlackRock [aka the Fed/ the Treasury Dept], “owned about 9.2 million shares, or a roughly 13% stake, in GameStop as of Dec. 31, 2020,” and could have made upwards of $2.4 billion on the rise in the stock since the end of December”
Though the significance of that is unclear, given BlackRock’s sheer size. They probably own 13% (or more) of a lot of corporations.
*The trading app “Robinhood” is at the core of the narrative, of course. And Joshua Browder — son of notorious (((American/ British/ Russian))) oligarch Bill Browder — who is involved in a class action lawsuit against Robinhood?

BlackRock downsized its ownership of GME stock in December, selling when it was $18.84 per stock. They're making money off the squeeze but less than they would have if they'd held.

1606 is not the “cradle” of anything except modern capitalism, and it doesn’t seem that old to me at all. There are no implications to “financial investments” it’s just a mirage of stories about trading shares in nothing. Real “ownership” of things and places starts with actual possession, so “the concept of taking a company” is meaningless. Possession is 9/10th the rule and this “stock market” relies on huge swathes of mental indoctrination to survive and keep the workers in line.
What counts is what I have in my hands, and UBI is hardly a form of “slavery”. We are all “enslaved” to our dependency on technology and socially organised economies, but that’s true with or without stock corporations. If you think “freedom” consists in relying on an ephemeral “stock market” to magically “invest” digits on a computer screen that mostly relates to nothing anyway… since 1606 most wealth has been held in the form of real capital, like houses, farms, local business, tangibles, and meaningful relationships with other people who reciprocate in turn.
A constitutional guarantee of subsistence and general protection is essential to all “investments”, just like in the capitalist age the whole FIRE sector is really an extension of any government, and cannot exist outside of the State itself.
I took that as /sarc.
They are always finding ways around any law/regulation, whether it’s their God’s or Man’s.
Each Passover, they are supposed to sell their dishware, (why I don’t know, some archaic rule from the distant past). This practice has evolved to a scheme, where the Jew sells his dishes to his rabbi for $x, then after Passover, the Jew repo’s his dishes for some multiple of $x that goes directly into the rabbi’s retirement fund. The dishes never leave the cupboard, just the “title” is passed back and forth.
Second example, in Brooklyn, there will be a inert wire strung around a block for the purpose of enclosing the block as one contiguous “household”. This is to get around Sabbath restrictions on what one can do outside of one’s household.
Both of these examples were related to me, without irony, by practicing Jews.

Back to the piece that you linked… looks like this narrative is something of a kosher sandwich — or perhaps even an entire deli:
“The main squeeze victims in this story are Steve Cohen and Gabe Plotkin, two Jewish investors who are also two of the most successful hedge fund chiefs on Wall Street.”
“But they aren’t the only Jewish characters involved. Ryan Cohen, founder of the successful pet products company Chewy, is the largest stakeholder in GameStop, with about 9 million shares, making him the big winner of the week. As of Wednesday, he had made $3 billion in a matter of days from the fallout.”
“Then there’s Jewish troll extraordinaire Dave Portnoy, founder of the hugely popular blog and social media company Barstool Sports, who has emerged as one of the leading public advocates for the mass of small investors who mostly remain anonymous on sites like Reddit.”
Also noteworthy for those unaware of the deeply semitic nature of antifa — the author of the Haaretz piece quotes a notorious antifa operative, doxxer/ riot organizer “AntiFash Gordon,” characterizing him as a “world authority” on the so-called “far-right” [aka normal White people].
“AntiFash Gordon,” of course, is entirely on the side of the hedge funds — as are a number of other prominent antifags.
Likely a large part of Robinhoods appeal to idiot millenials is “the app”. Shiny bling conquers shallow narcistic stooges every time. Tic Toc anyone?
TD Ameritrade (it now belongs to Toronto Dominion Bank IIRC), Schwab and Etrade were all forced to offer “free” trading because of Robinhood’s model. This kind of (((predatory))) capitalism has happened in waves over the last few decades. In the cases of Google, Twitter, Facebook, Amazon and Youtube we must recognize that the usual kazarian gangsters used their jewish power and control of the government to offer bandwidth and infrastructure for free, legal protections and regulatory capture, and of course free promotion through the cabal owned media and Hollywood. The competition had no hope of being able to meet the massive multi-spectrum subsidy. The game was rigged by the (((usual suspects))). The discount brokers were forced to capitulate and likely will disappear in the next decade.
In the case of Facebook they were able to demolish myspace for no understandable reason. Google was able to demolish altavista and others in the same fashion. Ditto youtube and Amazon. It wasn’t due to better talent or better product, it was just kazarian gangsters looting and pillaging.
It is this collusion from within the chosenite tribe that works against the goyim in all facets of our civilization. Universities, banks, justice departments, legal bars, medical profession, “science” are all first cracked using charges of racism and the culture of critique, and once the jewish trojan horse has arrived the flood gates are opened. As each region of our civilization falls to the kazarians, the situation becomes even more hopeless.
Of course the shabbez goyim will start blathering about “good jews” while ignoring their blatant and crass in-group preferences because the jews that own them lie so well. Jews themselves will kvetch and fling holocaust spittle at goyim so impudent as to mention what is happening right underneath everyone’s noses.
The Talmudics will find a way to punish the goyim. Either by shutting this down for the future or somehow hijacking it and making it a way to line their own pockets. The goy must not be allowed to succeed.
Anything they do to attack the reddit guys will only hurt the reputation of tbe US stock market. A short squeeze is a legitimate play regardless of who does it. The world is watching this thing and I don’t see how they can hurt the reddit guys without hurting wall st. If they were just running a pump and dump operation on the reddit guys that would be fine. Brokers like RH not letting them buy stocks to help out hedge funds is just plain cheating. In a fair market the hedge funds would have been destroyed.

What a magical formula!
My finance guy told me that none of the three firms that own more than 10% of GME are allowed to sell right now. You can only buy/sell once every six months when you own that much of a company.

You are a little wrong on your understanding that stock ownership isn’t “owning something”. Things have changed that have hijacked the system to a great degree but the concept of taking ownership of the company still exists. If you buy 51% of a company stock I promise you they will take your phone calls.
As someone who likes a gamble I don’t see anything wrong with what the hedge funds or the reddit guys are doing. Up until the RH started doing shady stuff like limiting buy access for stocks and selling people’s shares without permission it was all just good fun.
The hedge funds should take the haircut they set themselves up for. If that means some billionaires go broke then so be it. They made a bad bet and lost. They should pay up just like any other gambler on the stock market does when they lose. I get the feeling that RH itself won’t be around long and will be one of the biggest losers.

"These Jews set up the “short sell” swindle believing that only Jews (or soulless scumbags who work for Jews) would ever have the ability to operate on the stock market at scale. They knew they wouldn’t ever rip each other off, elsewise they’d get dragged in front of the rabbinical council.
...
You see: there is nothing preventing people from doing this, other than rabbinical councils. And guess what? Goyim don’t even know that those rabbinical councils exist! The only time you ever hear about it is when some Jew mentions it offhandedly, or it comes up in court that some Wall Street swindle was “supposed to be settled by the rabbis.”
The most high-profile example is probably when Jared Kushner said that Chris Christie should have left his father’s crimes to the rabbis.
Just in case you were sitting there, wondering why it is that no other Wall Street firm ever thought to get together and loot another for leaving themselves open like this – that’s why. Because Wall Street, like most other industries, is literally governed by rabbinical law.
Yes, they do compete – but they compete to see who is best at screwing over the goyim. They invented this idea of allowing private people to do trades because they just thought they’d suck up everyone’s money, like any other online casino – then, the goyim pushed back.
The rabbis, obviously, do not have the ability to call randos from the internet to one of their councils, so they have to use other things Jews control – such as the media and the government – to shut this down.
But they sure are having a confusing time explaining to the goyim why it needs to be shut down. They’ve pretty much just resorted to calling them Nazis.
Basically, the Jews are claiming that they’ve already gotten out of GameStop, and they’re done. But there is no evidence that is true. Andrew Left says he took a “100% loss,” which isn’t even possible, given the math here.

Anyway, if people would name the Jew, they’d be better able to connect the dots as to why such and such company and such and such institution are working together to stick it to the little guy. Who controls Wall Street, Big Tech, Big Media, and Big Government? Jews.
Just like Stratton Oakmont wasn’t some blue blood company but a Jewish scam operation, all these brands and labels just obfuscate the obvious truth: Jews got it all and wanna keep it all.
And as long as people don’t call out on Jewish Corruption, they won’t get to the heart of the problem.
Money Corruption stems from Moral Corruption of the Jews. But as long as we can’t call out on JEWISH moral corruption, Jews get to keep rigging things so that they take all the money.
Name the Jewish Factor in the moral corruption, and the world of money will be much cleaner.
thanks for the explanation.only a matter of time before this financial warfare would fire up.I believe that this all has its origins in the September 2019 Bank rescue by the fed.
Are you referring to that “I work for robinhood but not in finance” email where the anonymous whistleblower said the WH interfered?
Definitely worth investigating.
“And they told us Jews were the smartest people in the world”
My plumber and my electrician are the smartest people in the world.
Not only that, but there are planetary bodies in which hydrocarbons are naturally occurring (without fossils).
Don’t even have to be a planet, a moon can do.
“Titan hosts within its polar lakes “hundreds of times more natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons than all the known oil and natural gas reserves on Earth.” ”

Wikipedia isn’t always wrong.
It would seem Robin Hood isn’t all that into stealing from the rich and giving to the poor after all.
He’s got an improved model.
‘Restrictions on Robinhood traders got tighter throughout the day on Friday, only allowing clients to buy a single share of GameStop.
The stock trading app also expanded its list of restricted stocks from 13 earlier in the day to 50.’
The whip is definitely coming down, ain’t it?
$1k into GameStop in October would have given you $57,920 this week. That’s a nice incentive for someone who wants to strike a tangible blow against ‘the system.’ Looks like it’s time to shift the focus from “raising awareness” and “political action” and concentrate on hitting them where it really hurts.
We just know Biden and the Government will put an end to this quickly, as Robinhood finally did.
The Stock Market is only for the RICH to make money, and this will quickly be corrected and “regulated” (unlike what the REAL PLAYERS do.
This is an important point. It is central to the glossed-over, million-dollar question concerning the financial and environment cost/benefit analysis of switching to all-electric vehicles. Curiously, the alleged 'need' for all-electric cars has been conflated with a phantom crisis involving the imminent (but unproven) 'catastrophe' called 'climate change'.As it turns out, building all-electric, 'zero emissions' cars has huge environmental costs. Why isn't this fact front and center in the (non-existent) debate over electric vs gas-powered vehicles?Electric cars (and their batteries) require numerous rare metals. Acquiring these metals necessitates enormous amounts of mining. This causes immense environmental damage.What's worse, the most efficient machines for extracting these metals require massive amounts of oil and gas. This exacerbates the 'greenhouse effect'. This entire process eats up and destroys land as well as animal habitat.Plus there's the matter of efficiency and price. Oil is still abundant and relatively cheap. Oil is also very versatile since it can be transported easily, unlike electricity. And what about consumers' pocketbooks? How much will the price electricity rise when tens of millions of cars in the US aloe require daily charging? Any predictions?An eye-opening documentary on this subject can be seen for free below.

It will be interesting to see where they think people are going to get all the electricity … heck, California can’t even keep its lights and A/C going in a normal summer.
Far from being “fossil fuel”, hydrocarbons are not only plentiful but are being renewed by yet-unknown processes deep within the earth.
The term “fossil fuel” was coined in the 1950s when little was known about the processes by which oil is produced. Oil is “abiotic” in nature, as even depleted oil wells are “filling back up” from deep below the earth’s surface.
Oil interests are drilling wells at 5,000 feet, 10,000 feet, and 15,000 feet and deeper, and coming up with oil deposits way below the layers and levels where “fossils” were known to exist.
As Russia gained much expertise in deep-well drilling and coming up with oil deposits far deeper than that of the level of “fossils”, abiotic oil at extreme depths was actually a Russian ‘state secret” for a long time.
Not only that, but there are planetary bodies in which hydrocarbons are naturally occurring (without fossils).
“Peak oil” and “fossil fuels” are discredited concepts that environmentalists and others are latching on to, in order to display their hatred of oil being a truly renewable resource as well as to push prices up.
Follow the money.

And then there is the environmental impact of disposing of EVs once they’ve reached their end of life, not to mention tyres.
Joule for Joule, a diesel vehicle is more environmentally friendly than a comparable EV over the entire lifecycle of the two.
