Gaming Wall St

A voice that is needed. Millions were affected and are still being affected by the complete scam known as the Stock Market.

This document displays and describers perfectly the core issues and loopholes that banks, institutions and hedge funds take advantage to siphon billions of dollars from every day working Americans.

2008 obviously didn't teach anyone on Wall Street anything. They simply don't care because DOJ and FBI do not prosecute for Financial Terrorism.

This show ponders various questions, yet rarely arrives at an answer. Instead, it challenges us to (1) raise awareness, (2) learn the system, and (3) follow this hbomax link for more info.

How did Melvin Capital offload its short position in Gamestop (GME)? Was Citadel colluding with Melvin Capital and Robinhood to limit their losses and/or to profit from GME's increase? Was naked short selling practiced in the sale of GME?

Kieran Culkin, infrequent narrator, leaves us with these parting words: "It's a new generation... our generation... we won't sit on the sidelines any longer. If there's one thing the Gamestop phenomenon taught us, it's that we do have a voice, and it's time we start using it."

Cool. Thanks Kieran.

Here's my voice then: Is it a broken system? Yes.

Will it break again? Yes.

Solution?

Hmmmm.....

This documentary made some valid points that the balance of power lies with the institutional investor over the retail investor. Other than that, it was a proliferation of misinformation by people who don't understand markets.

Basically, WallStreetBets played a pump-and-dump in a way that was unavailable to retail investors before social media. I like that the hedge fund got a haircut on a short squeeze, but there is nothing noble here. There is no David and Goliath story. It was Wall Street getting blindsided because for the first time, social media created a meme stock.

Robinhood halted trading because they were close to not covering the regulatory requirement. This promoted the myth that Robinhood was in the pocket of Wall Street. Again, misinformation promoted by people who don't understand.

Garbage.

This kid is everything rn, and having him narrate is genius.

Aside from that, this did such a genius job of exposing what was happening sure the GME fiasco and how it continues.

My ONLY issue is with AOC and Jim Cramer being given a voice in this- they're both financial morons with no more a right to be viewed as an 'expert' than my mom. Cramer was a huge fan of Elizabeth Holmes/Theranos, and pushing those questioning Pfizer to be imprisoned. AOC/Sandy has zero clue how Wall Street really works and the entire time it happened would only spout the most basic talking points.

Otherwise an excellent doc that should be mandatory viewing for anyone who invests.

Wow. The first episode is an introduction to explaining stock trading and introduces the average person to the corruption behind the scene - but the second episode is edge of your seat.

I couldn't stop watching the second episode. It rips the cover off the hidden system and brings into the light the crimes that is integral to the secretive American system of financial greed that is Wall Street.

Don't miss this flashlight into the rotten underbelly of capitalist criminality.
