for anyone not up to speed, this is 'emoji speak' for the stock price of GME. 'going to the moon' is where the stock price will go if they can trigger the 'big squeeze' of all the hedge fund shorts coming due. the 'diamond hands' mean they'll hold the GME stock NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS until...
Big Sky Guy, I think you summed up the feeling of a whole lot of people. I owned a small mortgage company during the Crash of 2008. I kept my house, but just barely. my children were very young so it didn't leave a real imprint on them.
but that time devastated a lot of families. fast...
honestly, no worries. I'm a newer member and you guys don't know me yet.
the news spin has been pathetic on this. most commentators were calling the group 'day traders'. day traders don't Buy and HOLD. I've been in the office with the financial 'news' playing and a browser open to the actual...
me personally, I came late to the party. I'm not a millennial (47 yo) and I don't hang out on Reddit. I do mortgages so I'm pretty busy during the day. a customer asked me about this and I started digging. I did join the group and I did buy some BB (BlackBerry) stock, which is one of the...
BigHornRam, I did post in the Money and Finances section...
yes I do have a hunting story to tell. I had to put my trapping skills to work this last winter. I live in Myrtle Beach, SC in a neighborhood with lots of trees. with squirrels. gray squirrels. I had the soffit down off my front...
did someone get to RobinHood? Yes I think so. personally I don't think it was the administration. this happened too quickly and the administration was caught off guard and is still playing catch up. and that's not a dig on the new administration. I'm not a fan of the new admin but this was...
Kenton, I think you are commenting on the 'open letter to hedge funds' part.
understand the 'open letter' jpeg is an actual post from a member of the WSB sub-reddit (not myself) that I was commenting about on my FB page.
to your point, yes the grammar and proof-reading leave a lot to be...
here's a post I put on my FB this morning for anyone curious about all the news about Reddit, RobinHood and GME (GameStop stock).
"this is for everyone that A) doesn't know about the Reddit group trading 'meme stocks'. or B) thinks they are just a bunch of 'day traders'
the Reddit group are...
true story about KY. I live in Myrtle Beach, SC. when Covid first started becoming a thing in Feb, every Walmart here in Myrtle Beach was SOLD OUT of hand sanitizer. for almost a full month totally sold out and we have 3 Super Walmarts and multiple Eco and Nieghborhood Market Walmarts.
we...
I have to say I don't believe it. :) I believe you. but its hard to believe Walmart having ammo on the shelves. unless you bought it a couple months ago and just hadn't shot them yet.
we have 3 Super Walmarts and 3 'Eco' Super Walmarts within a 25 minute drive from my house. the ONLY ammo...
I have a friend definitely hoarding for himself. I've always called him 'the great white hunter'. he's just one of those likeable guys that never does anything half-@ss and loves to hunt and shoot. we were talking on the phone this week, getting caught up and he started telling me about the...
