My favorite post today from the retards was them calling out Robinhood. Couldn't afford the capitalization for managing heavy trades (trade stops), while buying Superbowl Ad time?
Robinhood has a serious conflict of interest here. One of their biggest sources of revenue came from Citadel in exchange for real-time trade information on GME and other stocks by Robinhood users. Also, Citadel channels more orders through Robinhood than through any other firm.
Two days before Robinhood restricted purchases (not sells) of GME stock, Citadel loaned Melvin Capital $2 billion to defend itself against the squeeze. So Citadel had a financial stake in beating the squeeze while at the same time had access to the real-time trade information of those attempting the squeeze as well as influence over the firm handling those trades.
There was no excuse for Robinhood halting GME purchases while still allowing sales. I would hope their actions would spell an end to their existence.
