Reddit posters proved today that the stock market, in fact all investment and trade markets are one colossal and elaborate Ponzi scheme

OP is shouting at everyone to buy silver.
You are responding not to because to do so is illegal.

You are BOTH guilty of manipulation.

I agree wholeheartedly.

I just wish it were based on a more positive system to actually help people.

I have enough but others do not.

So one has stuck it to anyone yet and the so called victims are yet to see a cent.

They need to do something to crash Facebook, twitter, Apple, Microsoft etc...go after all the companies who want to take away our first amendment rights. Or find out which companies politicians are heavily invested in.

The replacement system is going to be fuck balls.

Ahh kinda like qanon spamming for bitcoin under the table while talking about justice.

How about that weather market? put or take, folks?

If you think about it, public ownership of our biggest corporations is ... public. It's ... socialist?

I have worked for publicly traded companies for 25 years.

We answer to shareholders.

I always thought that was fair, and right.

The market doesn't belong to the elite.

It belongs to shareholders.

The main robber baron is giant super computers that create profit from thin air producing nothing of value, all the rest just piggybags on that.

Or in other words, money getting transfered around from a to b and back to a creating ponzi money.

The conversation over at wallstreetbet has just been stepped on by?????

Bastards!

Yes now we will see a influx of crypto spam, that's the brother of the stock market ponzi scheme.

Every dollar that super computer makes is a dollar someone else lost or contributed by buying in. It is a zero sum game.

Pffftt. When FB came out with stock EVERYONE on FB was talking about how they were going to buy some. What’s the problem now, with people talking in the open. You an SEC Shill? Fuck off.

it's a dollar stolen in 20 nickels by front running trades filled on private optical cable trunks.

Order from Chaos.

Chaos = Lie, Steal, Kill.

buying is different to ramping to take out short postions

We find out Friday afternoon

No, showing the ludicrous nature of the argument of the poster above.

Anyone stating an opinion about anything could be called manipulation.

OP's second good thread.

The first was the "armed robbery" thread about the the GA jogger.

man!

Friday is just the expected day the Hedge Funds will need to buy their stock. THEY THINK!

It could very well go into next week.

Only sell when 100% confirmed they have to buy stock

Invest in the company that mines silver.

Right now its 139% of the stock is shorted

All those shorters will need to guy stock when their time is up.

fuck off

If you do not invest in SOMETHING OF VALUE during your working career, you will not be able to retire...If you do retire, you will live in poverty...

I wonder if there is some SEC flunky flagging every post like,

"OOOh look this lawbreaker said to buy something, in public!" *GASP*

You didn't know this?

For anyone who doesn't understand how it all works and what happened, this man explains it all simply. Great thread:

They will sell the losses to our retirement funds.

You mean the U.S. stock market, where algorithms, AI, and High Frequency Trading are the rule of the day?

Well, yes and no.

Stock market used to be a Ponzi scheme, but with the introduction of all those new technologies, it's turned into something much, much worse.

It's turned into...

A Million Mistakes a Second

Ultrafast computing is critical to modern warfare stock market. But it also ensures a lot could go very wrong, very quickly.

The current, hi-tech stock market is a literal battlefield where the latest and the "bestest" of AIs are literally fighting over bits of data.

If that's not the very definition of warfare, then I don't know what is.

The thing is... if you compare what's happening in the stock market (it's been going sky-high since 2008), and the actual reality (the world economy has been crashing down in a death spiral since that same 2008), the only possible conclusion that anyone with even a trace of a rational mind can draw from such a complete disconnect from reality is: AIs can be just as much delusional and schizophrenic as the craziest of the crazies in a nut house.

... and, given enough rope to hang themselves with, AIs can fall prey to as devastating a panic attack as a soldier in the middle of a battlefield, who's gone completely bonkers from all the shelling, and all the bullets flying all around him, suddenly mindlessly charging the position occupied by his own troops, shooting at his own friends that he's been sharing his lunch with just moments before.

When such a shell shock happens to an AI running HFT algorithms... all hell breaks loose... and that can happen faster than even those automatic circuit breakers can prevent.

In fact, exactly that has already happened a few times before, and the "solution", the only one that has always been applied to that problem, was the one of "cancelling" all the transaction that occurred after the moment the crash had happened... with, usually, hours or even days having passed since the actual moment of the crash.

The thing is...

... what happens when those same "advanced" AIs get used in an actual, time-critical environment, where you don't get the luxury of days, hours, minutes, even seconds of trying to figure out what has just happened... let alone the luxury of "cancelling" the consequences of such, completely uncontrollable chaos?

If people should follow U.S. stock market, they should follow it as a case study in complete and utter failures in the use of AIs on a battlefield, and not because that stock market has any connection, whatsoever, to the actual reality that we're all living in.
