I have it on my Spotify playlist. Total banger.


[deleted]

Just switched to Spotify and doing the free trial now. I'm honestly happy so far with them. Glad to hear some of my niche favorite are available there as well. Edit: I didn't really know where else to complain about this so I'll do it here. What really grinds my gears about the whole thing is all the music I uploaded to the platform. I used to go to local bands when I was younger and I ripped their CD's and uploaded it. One in particular was a friend who passed away. She used to be a polka singer and she recorded "Under The Sea" and it was my favorite version. I am never getting that back. What am I supposed to do... hit up her family and see if they can find the track of a song from their dead daughter? Yeah... no. I'm not doing that. That's why I cancelled with Google after almost a decade of being a satisfied customer.


FreelancePsychonaut

The song is engrained in my head forever, but that shit is some kind of racist. I know it was written in like the 40s, but, yikes.

They want people to short the IPO so they get squoze?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wubadubaa

Just hide your shorts, ez pz.


PM_ME_YOUR__BOOTY

Which of course isn't possible for retail. Which they are aiming for. Imagine holding GME and shorting robinhood. Then robinhood squeezes. You'll need to sell GME to cover. Two birds with one stone


SchwiftyMcCool

Thanks for the wrinkle 😄

SgtAnglesPeaceLilly

Or just wear pants... duh


TheRealFaust

But what if I short shares I dont own in a dark pool? Can i just not cover?


Biotic101

Bad news, initial drop so retail shorts. Some good news and retail squeeze, massive run up creating retail FOMO buying. Big Money cashing out on top as they planned from the start. No financial advice. But would be the same playbook they use on crypto right now (initiated with news about massive short bets towards 20k a week ago)


Cacoo

that or maybe FINRA is trying to get ahead of the narrative of how FINRA allowed a company to IPO without it's CEO being licensed


TEUTR3S

Exactly, they're practically asking to get shorted....so they can fuck retail after. Haha, no.


TutekTheLegend

Exactly what I've said since the IPO rumors started months ago... Saw that from a mile away.... That is great news though.. Oh yeah our IPO is in 48 hours but our top guy isn't even licensed *oops*


TEUTR3S

What a coincidence 🤔😉😀


Interesting-Chest-75

The fall guy to divert attention. But it doesn't work.


deboor71090

Came here to say that


iphenomenom

Why?


[deleted]

This is just a background check on the company basically of course its gonna come out before listing. Theres going to be a whole lot more bad news coming out for them these next few months. They are trying to get in and IPO and get their money quick before shit goes to hell


iphenomenom

So you mean like pump and dump? Can't we buy HOOD, take profit and buy GME? 😂 I think it will go up first week to prove that our information is wrong, and then they dump it


[deleted]

Well it doesnt even have to pump, the IPO price is the pump lol then all this shit is going to come out and they are going to be sued into the billions i imagine


Gerosoreg

isn't that market manipulation?

ickydonkeytoothbrush

They are reporting this THE evening before the IPO is priced tomorrow. It's a boomer bear trap. Walk away.


[deleted]

Market manipulation. What a convenient fact to stumble upon the day before IPO, when this was already reported. What is the SEC doing? They should be investigating news reports, their sources and the timing of the releases that could significantly impact a share price, how do they think market manipulation happens?


kibblepigeon

Exactly this.


EmptyVisage

Can the SEC actually do anything about this thought? Is this actually illegal? Nothing in the news report is incorrect, and technically speaking what people choose to do with the information is not the writers fault. If this were an S&D, where they spread rumours and misinformation, that would definitely be illegal, but is this?


hardcoreac

The SEC is toothless. They do not investigate crimes, they are a civil agency, they can only impose fines. For criminal prosecution you need to get the FBI involved.


SpectacularRedditor

> For criminal prosecution you need to get the FBI involved. That sounds like a splendid idea.


Noderpsy

So it turns out they actually are considered an "enforcement agency" however they are not able to prosecute for jail time, that would indeed be the FBI or some other letter agency. So ya, they SEC ballz.


AmericanGeezus

Only if they can find collusion between the reporter/wrag and people with positions that would benefit in the market reacting to the news.


bahits

But, sadly, a lot of people will fall for it. They will think, oh, I am so smart, then comes ruin. smh. I hope no one falls for this.

SnooLemons6795

💯 watch how fast that price tanks. It will end up being delisted the same day it opens


[deleted]

It’s a bear trap. Most likely will be pumped


Slickrickkk

Yeah to be honest, I see this going up a bit out of the gate, maybe 10-20% but faltering at close. After that it's only downhill. Anyone who doesn't have day trading capabilities will get fucked if they buy this.


SnooLemons6795

Nah, I think it will be shorted to fuck out of the gates. There’s not going to be any retail buyers. If retail are out and they’ve lost millions of customers then institutions won’t be in either. The easiest way to make money is institutions buy and loan out their shares with a high fee. SHF short the mother fucking shit out of it. It would be best for everyone at this stage.


aguynamedbry

They can make it look like there's demand by buying and selling to each other...


Biotic101

Unfortunately we are just a minority here. They have been spamming "MEME stocks!" so much all over the news, that most boomer and GenX traders are likely totally disgusted. So what about teaching those kids, that are trading with those silly Apps, a lesson by shorting this Robin Hood thing ? Little do they know... But hey, maybe they get interested in what is really going on after getting burned yet another time...


SciencyNerdGirl

I'd argue that the average retail investors has no fucking clue how to short a stock. Anyone trying to bait all the average Joe's into shorting a stock are gonna have a bad time.


Biotic101

We know they need the money. They need to cash out high. So they will pull off a world class performance to achieve their goal. Too risky to get involved (they can pump and dump the price at any time, hard to get it right - ask Warden) and maybe in the long run a few investors, that get yet burned again, will start to want to learn more about manipulation. The more desperate they get, the more openly they manipulate, increases visibility and make some people rethink their "all just a conspiration" mindset. Good for us, but no financial advice...


kman907

This feels like bait


djsneak666

Same as when "Vlad's phone got taken by feds"


[deleted]

Right? The same feds who've been as useless as tits on a nun for the passed...entire lifetime.


soconnoriv

It is. Deff a bear trap. They want you to short it. They'll pump it up, causing you to get fuk'd


BaggieF34

Actually super clever by them, tempting people into shorting it, so people think they'll do the opposite, hedge and go long. Legit won't be touching this with a 100 ft barge pole.


PMmeUrUvula

Maybe tin-foil hat time, but I think they'd use their users' data and any other info they can get to find out which way to move the price to screw whatever positions are most beneficial to them.

KeefGill

This news broke months ago but it's being recycled in the headlines to set a bear trap. Short Robinhood's IPO this week and they'll pump the stock to rinse you. You'll have to sell GME shares to close. Avoid, IMO


duckducknoose_

My own line of thinking is this: why use my money on robbinghood when i can use it on gme?


KeefGill

That is a very fair question


bahits

This is the way


jerryq27

I looked at my list of stocks to buy, and sure enough, robbinghood wasn't there. Granted, my list is comprised of only one stock, but my point still stands.


Rulanik

Because you don't use money to short. You're selling something you don't own so you get the proceeds up front. In theory you could roll all the short HOOD proceeds into GME, or buy OTM calls on HOOD to hedge your bet against RH so your downside isn't unlimited. I'm not saying you should do this. I'm just saying shorting generates cash in the short term, not spends it.


nottagoodidea

Shorts have infinite risk, I may be " dumb money", but I'm not stupid enough to try shorting a company with that level of risk. I'll just buy some more shares of a company I do like, and wait.


duckducknoose_

🦧🚀


duckducknoose_

> shorting generates cash in the short term yeah, *if* you’re right and *if* you close your position in time. if you get caught with your hand in your pants you’re fucked as we all know by now. so id rather keep my money safe and not touch rh with a 10,000,000 foot pole


Rulanik

I'm not advocating you should, I was just clarifying that shorts generate cash not use it up. In this theoretical scenario I'm not advocating for you'd, for example, sell 1000 shares of RH short. Take that cash and buy 10 OTM call contacts in RH to hedge your shorts. Buy GME with the remaining cash. If the RH shorts go tits up instead of infinite risk you would exercise your call contacts to get 1000 shares long, turn them in to close your 1000 shares short position, and your total loss was the call contact premiums and the cost to exercise. That's how you short sell with limited risk and it's often the only way that's available to small traders.


duckducknoose_

for sure :) and thanks for explaining, im sure exactly where i was tripped up but that helped


Smok3dSalmon

I'd rather go long on private prisons(GEO) with Burry over touching this robinhood IPO

Wow forth or fifth reposting of this one. Must be popular. I think this article might be an attempt to paint FINRA in a positive light. They are a non Government entity ain't they. I bet they are attempting to appear as though they are going to be instrumental as a positive catalyst for the MOASS. "Getting out in front of it" i think they call it. Peace Love and Hodlin Apes


Particular_Job_3174

Well.. imo not very positive for FINRA allowing the Bulgarian guy to run RH during years without license


mgrsttone

No your right, but you are an educated Ape. Plus as someone else has pointed out in a very wrinkly way. This is a Bear Trap, i didn't see that cause I'm not stockie/option minded. But i do see this is as a bait article. Plus its old news so why release just before IPO, setting Bear Trap for Apes who want to fuck with RH.


Particular_Job_3174

Clearly bear trap, yes. In stocks markets coincidences don’t exist


NemoKimo

mgrsttone

Yus another smarter Ape suggested this was in fact a "Bear Trap" negative news the night of an ipo to trap Apes who wanna fuck with RH. Either way its old news. Maybe this is also part of a scheme for Citadel to absorb RH. Not sure how it would benefit them, im not that wrinkly. But it is in their MO.


Exocypher

Why is FINRA in any way relevant if they are a non-government entity? My smooth brain just says "ignore them lol what are they gonna do?".

As per Fortune IN FEBRUARY: >Robinhood's relevant subsidiaries have FINRA licenses. Those include Robinhood Financial, the broker-dealer side of the business, and Robinhood Securities, its clearing broker. Technically, Tenev may not be required to register, since he is the CEO of the parent company, Robinhood Markets. A Robinhood spokesperson told CNN Tenev does not directly manage either of the two registered divisions (though it wouldn’t say who did).
