My position tomorrow is the fetal position
I only have $800 in my account but I managed to lose $1100
I'm investing in Vlad because of how much he appreciates.
It was a pleasure losing money with y’all today, gentlemen.
Today is red in honor of mars. I accept this loss for NASA
I thought stonks only go up. I would like a refund please.
I got fucking murdered today
Idea for Robinhood - Achievements!
"Congratulations you have unlocked the '5 days in the red Achievement!''
What even is the point of closing the market ? Things doesn’t even stop. Extended hours should just be the hours now.
my general takeaway from GME hearing today is that Boomers cant figure out their webcams, mics or how the markets actually operate... but they run the country.
Sold RIOT puts for a loss yesterday, would've been over 100% gain if I held and sold today. Switched to calls on the dip today and am down 90%. Am I doing this right?
4 months of gains. Gone. Basically my entire trading portfolio expiring tomorrow
Thanks for the dump Solar.
FOOOK MEEEEEE REEEEEEEEEEEE
the second they announce stimulus checks are on the way u bears are once again fucked
Attn NEWBS:
Days like today are when you buy. Dont buy just because u have money. Wait. These days come. Sometimes they get worse for 2-3 days. This is the dip
BUY THE FUCKIN DIP
Does anyone Remember when we had green days
Got a strange feeling that tomorrow will be green AF.
How do you undiscover options trading?
Down $10k and I ran out of weed. Nice.
cry while holding my GME shares
Just chiming in to say that I also got ass blasted today.
I’ve lost half of my money ($12k - $6k) in a week on PLTR calls, AAPL calls, and APHA shares. Thought I bought a dip on all of those.
F
My move? Not tell my gf I lost 6k. Fuck you PLTR and fuck you AMC lol.
My move tomorrow? Taking another giant red dildo up the ass. Or not. Preferably not. Green dildo plz.
This week is straight bullshit.
Green Dildos prayer circle line starts here.
ALPHA TLRY pls stop
To the 7 million new members how was your first week
of an actual red market
Due to financial reasons, I will be passing away.
PLTR as flat as my wife's ass
Guys what the fuck is going on? This has been like the worst week of my life I’ve lost so much money
I'm just glad they fucking rang the bell
don’t rope gentlemen just hang in there
GME got *murdered* today
A PLTR is never late and never early, gay bears. It moons precisely when it means to.
Just give us a green day ffs
Since a lot of you have lost a ton of money and are trying to figure out how it all works, I’ll give you the answer key
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fred-economic-data/id451715489
It’s called FRED it’s all the info the FED publishes
And his brother EDGAR
https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html
Where the SEC stores all company filings (just search by ticker)
I don’t normally aim to educate here but for those of you that actually know how to read, have critical thinking skills, and in general ever stood a chance in the world of finance in the first place, those two links and a decent broker with news releases (I like ToS) are legitimately home to every bit of info you need to make it in this game.
Alternatively “feel the market” and maybe you’ll get lucky.
If you’re still reading this even though there weren’t any emojis, well you just might make it.
( web link to FRED below)

I’m going to post this 3-4 times today a few hours apart because it’s important so sorry if you’re seeing it more than once
PLTR boys, we eating ramen or wagyu tomorrow?
That last hour was a massacre.
Bought some riot today at 62 and then sold at 66 and made 26 dollars. Fuck ya free lunch
Since joining WSB last month I've become desensitised to losing money...
*'Ackshually if you hold the shares for at least 5 years...."*
Shut the fuck up. This is wallstreetbets. What happened? You guys stopped playing options? We don't have time for that pussy r/investing bullshit.
If I wanted to be driving a Ferrari at 80 when my back cracks in the seat, trying to fuck models when my cock no longer works, eating at Michelin star restaurants with dead tastebuds, and finally get a vacation house my old eyes can barely appreciate the view of.....then I will ask you for advice.
Get rich young or fuck it.
I want you all to know that I would gladly throw you under the bus for a green day
How tf am I down 84k in a bull market?

5 straight red days guh
This shit is a simulation. Seriously.
My options experience is buying based on a reasonable thesis, buying too early, having my options half in price and then just praying that I claw myself out of the hole over the next few days.
100k to 50k speed run in under two weeks. can anyone beat me?
Vlad’s story about being from Bulgaria is bullshit he has a perfect American accent maybe his great grandfather came over in 1910 but this mf grew up here and is just trying to justify his wack haircut

I’m tired of losing money. Can we please be super green tomorrow?
DONT YOU DARE INVESTIGATE WHETHER OR NOT I HAVE AN ADDICTION
Big green dildos are just ahead, fellas. Biden Bucks will be here soon to remind us that money is just a made up number
So like tomorrows definitely green cause a red week is illegal
PSA: Buying the dip works if you are buying shares or loading up on leaps.
Double downing on your weekly calls may not be the best interest.

If you’re a new member and experiencing heavily losses, you have 2 choices
1) quit and say goodbye to WSB
2) embrace your newly minted zebra stripes and let the mods knight you with a dildo blessing as you’re now one of us
This is the way
there is a SERIOUS correlation between red days and lack of awards in the daily threads

My portfolio is in the red and I live in texas, how worse can this week get
PLTR may not be bullish but holy fuck I would be dumb not to take some positions on it at this price
Does anyone actually read The Motley Fool? Seems like it’s about 99% clickbait.
My fidelity account looks like normandy beach on d day

Yall chill the fuck out with the doomsday shit you're making the bears horny
The other "investing subs" are so fascinating in comparison to wsb being oddly frugal because of our gambling addictions.

2. SPY retreats to -.95% by noon
3. SPY moves between -1.1% and -.65% between 1 and 2:30 PM
4. SPY slow-climbs to end the day -.09% before the weekend
VXX and VIX somehow end the day -1.3%

Kinda like when you watch porn and see everyone has a monster dick and there's you with your average 6 incher feeling sad.
My first market dip. I feel truly alive

PLTR AH has me rock hard
It honestly makes me feel so much better knowing you retards are suffering alongside me this week. And if you aren’t, fuck you.
I just ate a disgusting amount of sushi.
If PLTR dips tomorrow I will have no money to buy the dip... I will also have no money in general. Very sad!
This is your sign to sell everything and YOLO PLTR
Market rallied hard during the worst of the virus and now it's crashing now that virus is going away.

One red day and everyone’s crying. Buncha big pooseys
Sediment here is bearish which is a signal for new and improved me to buy.
All i have to do is move my portfolio back to my watchlist and it'll be green again
Dear AAPL,
Why must you treat me so badly? After all that iCar talk you promised, I very excite. I hope you realize what you’re doing. Please change your way.
P.S. Still HODLIN
My portfolio is perfectly balanced with 80% of it in various pltr calls and leaps.
aight who switched from calls to puts today. reverse green uno card
I’m in absolute shambles
People act like Palantir dropped because they were involved in some child porn scandal or lost government contracts.... it's just share lock up lmao. If you missed this dip you fucking hate money.
lol thanks citadel for the GME discount. My
Average is 496, I’m not scared Melvin!
Tossed like 40k into ARK ETFs today so this Cathie lady better know what the fuck she’s doing

ITS A SLAUGHTER

Just think about it like this
Any money you've lost is your subscription cost to WSB
You might be leveraged past your personal risk tolerance if a dip 1.5% below ATH bankrupts you
>!Stonks only go up!<
#If you go to bed now futures will stay red
#If you stay up to watch them they might turn green
Anyone notice how they repeatedly mentioned the SEC chairmen is only temporary and they haven't confirmed a new one? I think they are subtly hinting that they might vote DFV in.
PLTR the type of stonk to bring you flowers and cake after raw-dogging your ass for 6 hours
Upvote if you’re retarded.
GME be like "only down 11% today, pretty bullish"
Don't lie to me u/zjz . Are your bots inversing my positions and making mad tendies?
Market switched from easy to medium difficulty in the last two days.
Senator, thank you for the question, that’s a very important question.
Can anyone explain why PLTR stayed at almost 25 for a few hours?
PLTR
damn, ppl just DONT Like AAPL

Getting into trading has been the best and worst thing for me. Financially? I've been doing pretty good. Mentally? Well let's just say I wake up 15 minutes from opening bell screaming my lungs out and sweating bullets.
Biden when is that next stimulus coming mate? Need it asap. And don't forget to make it obligatory that the stimulu can only be invested in EV or weed stonks.
If I turn my screen upside down then it’s a win
This whole gamestop thing has taught me 1 thing...
This game is rigged and its a total fucking casino. The house always wins unless you play by their boomer fucking rules. So im gonna play by their rules....WSB edition. Yoloing the rest of my port on F and SOXX leaps, and TSLA puts. 2023 expiry, and deleting my apps. Not looking at it for 2 years. Fuck it.
​
​
See yal on monday.
Motherfuckers act like they forgot about stimulus.
Now THIS is pod racing!
If SPY isn’t up at least 2% tomorrow I’m calling the SEC
I know some of you lost your ass to GME, Took whatever money you had left and put it in TLRAY, Probably panic sold that bought a low risk ETF like lCLN.
You retards should know by now... if Cathie buys, you buy
$PLTR
If GME keeps sliding the way it is I'll buy more and my average cost basis will make me look less retarded.
I was told Buy Leaps get Sleeps, I have been holding AAPL $130 and AMD $92.5 09/18/2021 Leaps since September 2020. I haven't slept a wink.
Just a quick question. I’m trying to “buy the dip” - but can’t seem to find any more money. Ideas?
"I am not a cat"
line of the century
Guuuuys i diamond handed my tlry puts and now I’m fcking rich!!
One month of gains gone. Because they murdered my PLUG and FCEL! Red in a row for one whole fucking week!! Run out of money to buy the dip...
kinda expected today to be a blood bath, but I'm equally expectant tomorrow will be a better day
Kinda crazy to see the True GME Believers show up in these threads and legit talk about it hitting 1000 per share after it's dropped 400 from the peak lol
Let the PLTR avg down begin
pltr bought to moon mission to $33 tom just like the other day. Went up from 25 to 32.50 in one day. These were the easiest 28.5C odte I've ever made.. about to be a 3 bagger in a day.
PLTR
What are my moves tomorrow? How about curling up into a fetal position and crying
guys I’m so serious, whenever we see someone asking a question can the standard procedure be to respond with something along the lines of “first of all thank you for your question, it’s a pleasure to be here”
I like to just keep adding money to my account everyday so I never lose...
Imagine thinking PLTR gang is delusional but PLUG and FCEL gang are just “investing in the future”. LMAOOOoOo
PLTR lockup is classic sell the rumor buy the news
PLTR calls gonna printttttttt

My portfolio was down by -7.8% today. One of my biggest down days ever, fuck.
I'm broke! Holding for a good green day. It's been red all week for me.
What a brutal day in the market.
Tomorrow i move deep into the red.
Tomorrow I go from red to crimson
closing all my green positions to buy more red ones
PLTR lockup sell off is over, so where does it go now ?? guess guess.
Yo how to buy puts on Texas
I um
I admit to always improving
it was great buying PLTR puts at the top and shit talking it all the way down only to sell the puts and buy a shit ton of PLTR shares @ $25. Dont be afraid to swing both ways, retards
Palantir LEAPs. That is all.
Worst part about shares is they dont expire. You have to actually admit defeat by selling.
You cant just get blackout drunk at open on expiry day and pass out before the bell and have your broker clean up your mess.
PLTR Jan 2023 $25 calls are like 13 bucks, may have to pick up a handful of those bad boys.
First off. I appreciate the question.
Tomorrow I will buy more $CRSR , $IIPR, $TCEHY
Every single stock on the market has betrayed me
Sat on the sidelines for months waiting for a play like PLTR. This week has been swell.
PLTR is up $1 after hours and my pp going up right now
Cathie just gave me green light to turn on margin and buy the palandip
Ever since GME, everything mentioned here is behaving like a P&D, i dont know if its outside manipulation or if its the new culture but im gonna stick around for the lolz and avoid the tickers like the plague
*futures red I bang my head*
*Futures green i touch my ween*
PLTR lets gooo!!! lockup what
Thank you PLTR, very cool!

Markets mooned into the close last Friday. This whole week has been a shit show. Fuck you.
All this new money getting WIPED OUT over -.5% makes me lol.
I am not a cat
I can't stop losing money so I'm going chew through my CRSR keyboard wire.
IS A GREEN DAY TOO MUCH TO ASK???
You gotta admit seeing all the bears come out is nostalgia level exciting if you've been here longer than a month.
I’m a simple man, I drink coffee with breakfast, and when I see PLTR dump 7% I buy call options.
PLTR 27c 2/26
You know what’s funny? SPY is still up .15% from this time last week.
But reading this thread you’d get the impression we’re in the middle of March last year.
Bill Gates named Microsoft after his penis
Second day of my life owning stock second day losing my money lol I like the stock tho
It's pretty sad how empty my life is when I'm not making any money in the market. Legit, I live for green days. Days where I'm losing money are a struggle because it forces me to reflect that I got absolutely nothing going for me outside stocks lol.
Roll call soldiers. It was a bloody battle today.
Ja Rule, we need you to make sense of this
What are my moves tomorrow.
Jerk off and cry to REMs "Everybody Hurts" as I stare at the red in my portfolio.
Ravioli ravioli gimme the stimmioli
Somebody seems to want PLUG below $50 for this Friday. What is a good entry price?
Buy pltr
PLTR calls bought EOD.
Cathie buys. I buys.
Yikes it’s bleak in here today. I don’t feel as bad being down 4% today. I’m so so glad that I read a comment that said, “put all your money in riot you can’t lose.” I sold my options immediately when I read that. Thank you to whoever gave me that euphoria top

Bought more PLTR, I think it hit rock bottem today, but what do I know? I just really like the stock.....
Everyone start saying the opposite of your positions so we trick the algos

Pltr up 7% AH
Now we know what it never dipped below 25. Cathie had a 5M buy order there
I don't buy high and sell low, I buy high and expire worthless.
Bought some more pltr in last min of AH—feeling very bullish
Melting snow just to flush the toilet, sir.
Unpopular opinion-
As a permabull, I get the biggest chubs on red days when I buy stuff on deep discount. Every day after pales to Buy day.
I should have bought more sndl puts im such a pussy
This lady lives in the apt under my and she just texted me “Hi! Are you okay up there?” And I have no idea why...
Like why would I not be okay. Is there something I’m missing.
She may have heard me swearing and muttering under my breath maybe as I looked at my accounts?
I don’t know
What do I say back?
Is she trying to have sex with a zaddy or just make sure I’m not going to jump off the roof?
PLTR up 1.23 AH. Keeeeeep going
I bought 1 $800 3/19 GME call at close. +$2 already
Contemplating just going all in PLTR shares and doing weekly CC.
Yea I totally fucked up my taxes lol
Y’all see that Mortal Kombat trailer. Im signing up for HBO Max to watch it. Nostalgia at its best. Calls on $T
Scared money dont make no money, aka watch a stock go up for a month only to muster up the courage to buy the top, no fear the key
What do you think is wiser given the same amount of cash:
1. Getting a lambo
2. Down payment on a mansion
3. PLTR FD’s
I put the house on PLTR
No crash in sight. Everyone is talking about a crash which means it’s not happing. Be worried when the opposite is happening
Went all in on RIOT @ $62. How fucked am I?
Edit: This is not a rhetorical question
I dont even remember what a green open feels like.
I know at least 7 million of you purchased GME at 12:51 PM thinking it was going to go on a moon mission.
*stock*: falls by .5% intraday
*WSB*: ITS A SHORT LADDER ATTACK ZOMG
Imagine growing up in Bulgarian village, committing financial crime in America, then being questioned by beautiful foot princess as spectator sport.
What a country!
pltr buy dip
are we pamping PLTR with mother Cathie or what?
Fuck I’m using 20k margin and I’m long. Wish me luck.

I just heard some noise about some hedge fund shorting GameStop, should we all team up fight back against the 1%?!?!
- Posted Via Internet Explorer
A few red days will not make me a gay bear
DFV represented us GME people well!
Hang in there!
i will continue buying PLTR until i get rich or foreclosed on
I miss the weeks where the market was just a sea of green the entire week and you could park your money anywhere on Monday and retrieve it back on Friday for 10-20% return minimum.
Maybe better luck next week.
I am tired of all this motherfucking red on this motherfucking rocket.
I’m gonna cry tomorrow.
I've noticed there are some very cranky people in WSB today lol. Red days aren't good for their mental health haha.
“You’re still on mute”
I bought calls in AAPL and PLTR that expire in March. I’m over February
Can’t take another red futes
Vlad continues to look like a washed up Kylo Ren
Equally excited and scared for market open tomorrow
*cries* Hey guys PLTR is mooning AH *cries*
Nice dip today. Can we get a stimmy talks going well now pls?
My plan tomorrow: lose money on PLTR some more then buy more
down 10k love that for me
My two biggest positions are PLTR and NIO for my meme portfolio
I’m in pain
Don't have the right words to properly describe how much today has sucked and continues to suck. You wanna talk about overkill.
Everything has been red...all my calls tomorrow may expire OTM and I’m gonna have to live in a cardboard box outside Capitol Hill with my kitten named Mittens begging congressmen to let me suck their dick for shelter, just like the hedge funds. Thanks to the hearing today, I know exactly which congressmen to ask.
Congress be like:
Alexa play Regulate by Warren G.
Not in on PLTR during dip. Feel like I’m being retarded. Is this FOMO or legit
Rep. San Nicholas of Guam did a great job defending retail investors at the hearing today, and raised concerns that almost certainly sent a chill down Vlad's spine: [https://youtu.be/i8hJ9LwGvqU](https://youtu.be/i8hJ9LwGvqU)
I didn't realize I invested in weed to be poor
I hate how Team SoloMid is the first thing that comes to my mind whenever I read TSM. Always takes me a second or two
I know this isn't the WSB way, but the more I trade options, the more I realize that theta gang is the way to go.
Over the last year, the only times I've been significantly profitable is when there's some extraordinary event (like the March crash or the GME fiasco). The rest of the time my options slowly (and sometimes not so slowly) go to zero.
Buying more APHA
Mr Tenev can you please explain why your haircut is so goddamn weird? I’d like you to only respond with yes or no
Oh god I've become my Aunt. Drinking and watching CSPAN
The Beacons are Lit!
PLTR Calls for aid!
and Cathy will answer!
What comes after a big drop on a roller coaster?
That's right, a big fucking hill.
Cathie bought more palantir
If Cathie sees value in buying 5 million shares, I certainly see value in buying 500.
# Has anyone seen DFV & Vlad in the same place at the same time before?
I sold most of my arkw to buy pltr today.. then saw they bought 5.2M pltr today. im literally the male cathie
RIOT dumped and b coin didn't RIP RIOT
This sub is bearish as fuck and for the right reasons
I just hope we are proven to be the ultimate retards again tomorrow and market is blood green
That puke feeling when you lose $8K in one day.
And the worst part is it definitely isn't coming back.
I don't like this market anymore :(
I thought stonks only went up :(
Bought pltr at 29.20. Am I a retard? Please say yes
PLTR APHA
Move tomorrow = tape my butt shut and hide till Monday.

Lmao ok I'm ready for my ass to get owned again tomorrow
It's amazing that the rover landed on Mars. One day I hope humans do colonize it. A barren rock planet with no natural resources is definitely my number 2 spot behind Earth.
FUCKING BLACKBERRY
My portfolio absolutely shit the bed today.
Is it time to fire JPow? It shouldn't take this long to replace the damn ink cartridges in the printer.
I’ve seen futures red past 1% and had a huge Green Day the next day, and I’ve seen green futures before a crash. Futures don’t mean shit
I’m in a sticky situation, i am ruined. But i will hang in there

Yes. It was epic. This and when another member of congress got Vlad to admit that RH had a liquidity problem were some of the highlights of the main hearing.
I like to hide out, no need to turn on the green lantern all the time

TITLE: GameStop Congressional Hearings - Part 2TEXT: [Livestream C-SPAN](https://www.c-span.org/event/?508545/robinhood-ceo-reddit-cofounder-testify-gamestop-stock)
[Livestream YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfEuNHVPc_k&ab_channel=FinancialServicesCommittee)5 people. this dude has 4 lawyers in the room typing him answers
edit: dont usually do this but did this comment get a shout out on cnbc or other? seems unusual voting
Tldr of the last thread/entire hearing
Vlad: was born in Bulgaria and appreciates all the questions
Plotkins: claims WSB is anti-semitic and hurt his feelings
Kenneth: has a cool teleprompter and refuses to blink
DFV: is not a cat and likes the stock, so much in fact that he would buy in at the current price
Boomers: can't seem to mute their mic or ask any relevant questions
Edit: Steve Huffman's balls appear to be large
Edit 2: gonna use the printer in Plotkins room for calls on Guam
Edit 3: DFV killing the game out here, one of the few competent people involved in this hearing
Fun fact: if you took a shot of vodka every time Vlad said "very important question" you'd be fucking dead
I SAID, YES OR NO
Notice how DFV and Huffman get straight to the point and everyone else just slowly talks bullshit
u/spez said it himself. The Reddit team combed the comments and could only find ONE instance of an anti-semitic comment directed at Melvin Capital that was downvoted and deleted. This notion that WSB was unified behind these remarks is just plainly untrue and deceitful.
"How many people are in your room Mr. Griffin? (off camera)"
See, I don't think you need any more help.
It’s great Vlad getting lit up but holy shit, open your eyes. They are scapegoating to shit here. 80% going to Vlad. Hedge funds not targeted at all in retrospect. Shorts not mentioned at all. Think about your congressional representation. This is totally fixed.
What a dagger! "How many people are in the room with you?" That's the way to show the difference between retail and the big money.
Edit: [Here's the video link to the question and answer](https://youtu.be/RfEuNHVPc_k?t=11419). (per /u/321dawg)
Edit 2: [Here's a video link to DFV's response to the same question](https://youtu.be/RfEuNHVPc_k?t=16855). (per /u/Nedink)
DFV did far better in this hearing than I was expecting. Truly relieving
A congressman is now on record congratulating DFV for his DIAMOND HANDS
I AM ONCE AGAIN APPRECIATING THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS THAT QUESTION
“If a stock has more sellers than buyers does it go up or down?”
RH CEO: “well umm... thanks for the questions soo yeah uh... robinhood is like... uh a um brokerage... we believe in the democratization of stocks soo... umm.... thanks for the question”
**Tenev just testified that Robinhood has an unconventional pay-for-order flow arrangement.** Answering Rep Joyce Beatty
>Our model and formula for payment for order flow works a little bit differently. We actually receive payment for order flow as a percentage of the bid-ask spread rather than on a per-share basis. And we do believe that is the most optimal way to structure payment for order flow arrangements.
#your customer is right next to you
#your product is my nephew
OH shiiiiiit "Your customer is sitting right next to you, Citadel"
LMFAO CASTEN ACTUALLY CALLED THEIR HELPLINE INFRONT OF CONGRESS I Can't breathe .
THIS DUDE JUST LIED LMAOOO HE GOT DEADPAN SERIOUS
edit: Ken Griffin just stated that he nor anyone at Citadel has had any contact with anyone at Robinhood in regards to GME during or since this event
#Basically they’re handing the bag to RobinHood and shorts still get to short illegally. Nothing changes.
#REP Tom Emmer is a G for acknowledging DFV is the only one who doesn't have a lawyer in his ear rn
"I AM NOT A CAT"
"I LIKE THE STOCK"
"I WOULD BUY IT, (GME at $45) YES"
-DeepFuckingValue, in Congress, on the record.
"Absolutely not." That'll be a great subtitle for the perjury charge
Are you buying the stock at 45?
Absolutely, Yes.
https://youtu.be/oryD9RTxOMk
I’m confused. Mr. Griffin has 5 people in the room and is obviously reading off of something like a teleprompter.
*How is that legal?*
if this was in person he wouldn’t be able to turn to a teleprompter or 5 helpers....
THIS GUAM REP IS FUCKING REKING LIKE NO ONE ELSE
We really watched 5 hours of CSPAN???
I’ve become the men I hate.
My take on the hearings today
Griffin - coached and reading from a teleprompter. Lied under oath regarding communication with RH and DTCC
Plotkin- bold faced lied about short positions.
Vlad- Got steamrolled, whipping boy and probably one room over from Griffin where they beat him with phone books in between sessions.
DFV - a legend and hero, HE LIKES THE STOCK.
How can these dirty fucks get away with dodging so many critical questions? What kind of clown fiesta are we witnessing?!
Can we appreciate the fact that only u/DeepFuckingValue seems to know how to answer a yes or no question?
Let me....read....this... While.... My friend....
Finishes.... Typing out..... My thoughts...
If there is anything I’ve taken away from today’s questions, it’s that our representatives are too fucking old and out of touch with the world around them.
That scares the shit out of me.
My favorite part was when representative Anthony Gonzalez (OH) questioned Vlad:
"So, in your testimony, you mentioned that the estimated deposit requirements from Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) came in at 5:11 AM Eastern and it showed a $3 billion deficit, correct?"
"I believe that's correct, yes."
"Okay, uh, at that point, 5:11 AM, did you have the liquidity to meet the additional $3 billion deposit requirement?"
"So, uh, as we wrote in detail, uh, on- in my written testimony, there were, uh, there were a series of steps that the Robinhood securities team took to-"
"At that exact moment did you have the liquidity for $3 billion? 5:11 AM?"
"At that moment, uh, we would not have been able to post the $3 billion in collateral."
"Okay, so when you said- and you've said this multiple times- that you did in fact have the liquidity and you didn't have a liquidity problem.. at that moment in time, that is not necessarily true, correct? You had to take steps to get there?"
"Congressman, we did have to- the Robinhood securities team had to work with our relevant clearinghouses to adjust the risk profile of the trading day in order to meet our collateral requirements."
Great, uh, and in order to do that, uh, your choice was to throttle trading- to prevent your clients from being able to purchase in certain shares, correct?"
"That's correct, Robinhood Securities had to restrict buying in about 13 different securities."
"Okay, and if you had not been able to de-risk the profile- portfolio, excuse me- you wouldn't have been able to raise the money, get the bar requirement needed to get the excess capital charge waived to de-risk the portfolio, then DTCC would have stepped in and liquidated the portfolio, correct?"
"Uh, I'm not sure what the exact, congressman, what the exact steps that they would take if we weren't in compliance with the deposit requirements would be, but it would not have been a good situation for the firm or for the customers."
"If a clearing member fails to satisfy a margin call it exposes other clearinghouses members to risk...can put SEC out of compliance. In a case of non-payment, NSCC (National Securities Clearing Corporation) may cease to (...) the clearing member and liquidate its unsettled clearing portfolio. So that, uh, was definitely in the cards. For my constituents, who are Robinhood clients, what would this have done to their portfolio if it had been forced [into] liquidation as a result of missing the capital call?"
"Well, congressman, if it were forced (...) liquidation, at the very least it would have resulted in **a total lack of access to the markets** for your constituents- not just to the 13 securities that we restricted buying in."
"Right, so this would have been an enormous catastrophe for Robinhood, correct?"
...I wish I didn't watch that killcam.
I wanna personally thank Vargas for bringing the conversation back to GME.
DFV called for a break at 420
Every moment DFV doesn’t talk is a waste of daylight.
"that's like taking the 5th"
VARGAS!!!!!!
holy shit Huffman. Inches away from calling out CNBC by name
​
Actually better than TV people talking about the stocks, fuck yea
Main things I learned:
1- Congress people prey a lot
2- If you thank for the question hard enough, you don't have to answer.
3- You can spend 5.5. hours reading scripts on a screen
4- DFV is not a cat
5- Congress ppl need a stimulus check for better internet
6- If you don't want to ask a question but you really have to, save the question for min 4.55
HOLY FUCK HE CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE.
This dude must fuck only 10s
I admit to the mistake of always improving!!!
DFV is the only one who actually answered the questions, I truly commend him for being our representative.
He brings up the Holocaust comment when it was already debunked? Dafuqqq
reddit ceo actually standing up for us apes feelsgoodman
LITERALLY CALLED THE HOTLINE, THE BALLS ON THIS MAN
Sounds like Vlad really is a fall guy. 90% of all questions have been about RH and Payment for Order Flow.
Virtually none about naked shorts.
Vlad watching his IPO slide down the drain.
My takeaways from this hearing: DFV is not a cat, Robinhood does not in fact have a call center, Vlad doesn’t know or recall any of the things a CEO should know, and Guam should be granted statehood.
Congresswoman: YES OR NO
Vlad: Bulgaria.
Plotkins: Nazis
Citadel guy: Maybe if I don't blink they won't know I'm hiding secrets!
[I made it boys ](https://imgur.com/gallery/7ctrQzn)
Adding CNBC Editorial to me resumè
Griffin has 4 people coaching him through this, wow
I gotta say I was especially annoyed by the guy who mentioned that he's proud of Vlad for making himself via the American dream as an immigrant from Bulgaria as if to imply he made himself from nothing. Motherfucker, this asshole's parents worked for the World Bank and he was born with a platinum spoon in his mouth and given the best education and guidance money could buy.
Rep. Nicolas to Vlad, “you halted buys and allowed sells, in order to mitigate capital requirements, and you benefited from that, because it reduced the amount of capital you needed to raise. You took from your customers. You wanted to protect your own position. That is troubling.”
Incredibly impressed by Reddit CEO
You can literally hear one of the 5 people in the room write on a keyboard. And you can see Kenneth Griffin reading from it.
That's why he talks slow every single sentence. There's no flow.
Edit: [had to make it myself](https://imgur.com/a/8TmC4Kx)
LOL HE ACTUALLY PUT THEIR SUPPORT ON BLAST
Calling the helpline during a congressional hearing is fucking genius
High frequency taxes will apply to zero people in this thread unless you use giant computer systems to trade stocks. If you have access to this kind of technology, why are you hanging out in a livestream mega thread on Reddit?
I love how DFV was given no time yet he used every second with incredible efficiency. Complete opposite of Vlad the Evader. It's like night and day.
# KEY TAKEAWAY TO WHAT GRIFFIN SAID: THEY *CURRENTLY* DO NOT HAVE ANY EMPLOYEE WHO COLLUDED WITH ROBINHOOD.
# Who have they fired since the incident start or moved to a different org thats not technically under Citadel or did they use a third party?
Reddit’s CEO is incredibly well spoken. He’s clearly a really smart dude
HOLY SHIT THAT CALL TO ROBINHOOD CUST SERVICES
I reclaim the 5 fucking hours
I never really thought much of myself, but guys I really think I could be a congressman after today #inspired
For those who missed it: according to the Robinhood CEO, they closed customer positions to the tune of $3B to cover their own asses, claiming it was for the good of the customers
The DFV exchange with Stephen Lynch was brilliant:
​
"I think I owe you some time to speak." - "Well, Ryan Cohen..." - "I RECLAIM MY TIME"
They have 5 legislative days to submit written questions for the panel.
In all seriousness, if you have a legit question, then I encourage you to email that question to the office of your House Representative. If your Rep wasn’t on the committee, then you can probably email it to your state’s Rep on the committee.
Some thoughts:
1) To Melvin: Did you re-enter into new short positions in GME on or after January 28th?
2) To Citadel: How exactly do you monetize the order flow that you PAY Robinhood to obtain?
3) To Robinhood: Do you currently have the ability to know how many shares your users hold of any given stock in real-time? During the week of January 25th, what was the highest amount of GME shares owned by your users?
4) To SEC: Why was the uptick rule (Reg SH Rule 201) in effect on January 15th for GME, but not in effect for GME on January 28th and during the week of February 1st?
After watching this all day, my main takeaway is this: I’m so frightened that so many members of the House Financial Services Committee have absolutely no idea how any of this works. It’s truly terrifying.
I also made it on to [CNBC](https://imgur.com/gallery/G8z9G0n) today
Easier than getting flair in here. As it should be.
“Did any of your colleagues contact robinhood”
“Sir, are you asking me if any of my colleagues had contact with robinhood”
Rep Juan Vargas has them saying they absolutely did NOT stop trading or have collusion and every employee will agree. Great youve got him on tape NOW SUBPOENA ALL OF THEM
https://i.imgur.com/KmNaVBe.jpg
Shot out to the mods by reddit CEO!
Damn whoever has Anthony Gonzalez as their congressman is lucky. Dude really goes to bat for you guys
Why the fuck is it ok for Robinhood to say they had no liquidity problem without answering the completely obvious followup question: then why couldn't I buy GME????
At the expense of being downvoted, AOC didn't even scratch the surface.
If 36k of us can sit thru this boring ass shit I feel confident that at least 36k are holding this shit no matter what
Today proved beyond reasonable doubt that a substantial portion of congress is too damn old to legislate in the digital age
Vargas with the sneak attack! I’m sorry that one person in 8 million typed a slur, but let me explain why you’re all crooks and how transparent it is that several of my colleagues are in your pocket.
Edit: quotation marks removed. That was my paraphrasing, i.e. I was the speaker for purposes of the quotation marks, and not the actual statements.
GRIFFIN- I have 5 people in this room. Including myself.
VARGAS- 5 people, see they don't need any help.
That's the Grindr notification sound, I recognize that shit anywhere
"People like my nephew aren't the customer, they're the product, your customer is sitting next to you in Citadel"
You fuckin go gurl

I can't believe I watched the whole thing
Rep. San Nicholas of Guam did a great job defending retail investors at the hearing today, and raised concerns that almost certainly sent a chill down Vlad's spine: [https://youtu.be/i8hJ9LwGvqU](https://youtu.be/i8hJ9LwGvqU)
5:07:14
Congresswoman: "What mistakes did you specifically make?"
Vladdyboy: "Uhhh... I admit that we're always improving"
What a fucking shithead
"please answer yes or no"
Vlad: "Thank you so much for the question congressman. You see, I was born in Bulgaria in 1986...."
We need some much younger representation in Congress. That's my only takeaway.
"We don't have liquidity problems!"
