If you go and look at his post history, it's amazing: https://www.reddit.com/user/deepfuckingvalue Dude has been forecasting this for over a year.
Never mind his one comment in months: "what's an exit strategy?" https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/kie1dk/gme_yolo_update_dec_22_2020/ggqe63a/
They're really going after the loot-based games... expanding the virtual game into physical merch. Seeing the money involved in those games, if they can tap into it, it's not a bad play.
This is by far the best one I've seen. The captions match up with the actors so well. Every emotion is pitch perfect. https://old.reddit.com/r/WallstreetSluts/comments/9406k2/i_see_dead_tendies/
My best friend has baited breath about this whole ordeal. He is REALLY hoping that Andrew Left will kill himself. “They actually FORCED him to shut up, it’s glorious!” he tells me. I wish I knew more about finance, because he’s acting like all his christmases are happening at once.
I watched his live stream event. It was hilarious. Dude rambled on from his couch at home with his phone. Looked like a personal thing, nothing corporate or professional.
Ive been following this guy. I’m guessing he’s an actual professional trader instead of just some kid riding a rocket to the moon. It would be hilarious if he actually is, though.
Yeah. Either a pro ir a REALLY lucky/good day trader. His original play was a year ago for a thousand shares for close to pennies.
I think most of the people on that sub are way more experienced than they pretend to be. Otherwise, everyone would be getting wiped out from margin calls.
There's definitely a survivorship bias at play. The idiots who don't know what they're doing get wiped out fast and never come back.
Someone remind me: what exactly happened with that Tesla short with Jim Chanos? Wasn’t it a multi-billion dollar fail?
Tesla skyrocketed and he changed his position from short-selling to put options. Basically, he only has to pay out the premium on the option versus losing a shitload more on a shitty short position. He got butt-hurt and calls Musk a fraud all the time.
