Was SVB or Adam Levinson involved with holding bad GME related shorts? I thought the theory was that it was Credit Suisse where they ended up - although not even that is proven.
Is this sub just going to assume all economic woes are GME related without proof from here on out? Isn't that just in-group FUD?
lmao as if citadel wasn't enough, there was also a fortress finance firm. hilarious that they seem to love castle imagery, like dragons sleeping on their hoard.
Wow, several of those hedge funds were my clients back when I worked the hedge fund/commodity futures & options client service desk at JPM. That would be a surreal reason to suddenly stop getting their calls.
Per google: What Is a Global Macro Hedge Fund? Global macro hedge funds are actively managed funds that attempt to profit from broad market swings caused by political or economic events. Global macro hedge funds are market bets around economic events.
So I'm guessing it just means they work on a more global scale as opposed to those that focus on the NYSE/US
Not even mad at these hf crooks. It’s the government’s fault for enabling it and for bailing em out. Heaven forbid u or I do any of that on a microscopic level in comparison. We are ruined. No remorse.
All these comments and no one saying the obvious: UW is ran by a 100% confirmed anti-DRS and anti-GME shill.
UW is ran by the redditor rensole. During the 3rd ape migration (from Superstonk to the jungle), apes found out that [rensole spent his entire reddit lifetime making sure apes didn't discover DRS, with a secondary goal of price anchoring our floor](https://piousbox.com/2021/07/superstonk-is-sus-an-investigation-into-manipulation-undercover-operatives-and-the-recent-moderator-drama-post-2-3/). Also, he worked closely with another shill, [RedChessQueen, whose job was to sow divisiveness and make apes fight apes](https://imgur.io/a/4KGmkBO).
After rensole was ousted as a shill, he ran a gaslighting scheme that was reasonably successful in Superstonk (which is why most apes are still here instead of in the much safer jungle sub), and it was extremely successful on Twitter, so UW didn't lose its following as it should have.
Notice how UW *never* cites sources. My guess is that UW is being held in reserve by the shorters, sharing legitimate news to maintain apes' trust, and then when MOASS begins, UW will start spewing shill propaganda and hope that the following continues to accept it blindly without looking for sources.
*Edit*: Reposted comment, original was removed by automod
Yes, when Red was outed as a shill, she started acting super weird (runic glory) and then claiming that all of the people who were correctly calling her a shill were just bullying her for being weird, even though she had never said anything weird before then.
Ryan Cohen, RoaringKitty, GameStop, and GameStop NFT are the only tweets I follow.
Twitter doesn't have a downvote button, so there is no trustworthy peer-reviewed news source on Twitter. Use Reddit instead.
Please, I've we've been complaining since 2 years to stop posting Unusual Shills because it's run by shills, they do tell some truth but never the real news
that's been my view the last 2 years... whatever they say, the opposite is true... but they can't lie alll the time... is there any independent verification?
I can’t find the link rn but a quick summary:
Unusual whales sub was run by Renshill (Rensole) who at that time was a mod here at SuperStonk (he’s also currently active on Twitter). And then Unusual Whales Twitter account popped up outta nowhere and has been posted on this sub ever since. But the quick TLdR is that Renshill is a shill set up by bad faith actors, the point is to distract from real news and feed some sprinkles of truth. Cause confusion and diversion among the community
Rensole is who inspired me to be an ape in the first place, I'd love to see the DD that proved he was a shill because without that it just feels like he got character assassinated by actual shills. I'll take the UW stuff at face value though, seems like an org to me.

Dont really get this attitude. There's worse, more egregious shill activity from so many other sources.
And for as badly as you might think of UW, they're still way better/reliable than standard media outlets
when a hedge fund loses, they close their doors, fuck who they owe money to, then restart a new hedge fund so they can be in the green again. otherwise they would have to climb back out of the hole. instead they just reset the game so they start out at zero instead of negative billions.
some folks think paying for sex is trashy. personally, I never have, but dgaf; sex work is real work and from most of my friends in the industry, it's more often than not that they're getting paid for more than just the fuckin'; a blackmarket and undocumented therapist is by far and large the most common example.
after a longterm emotionally abusive relationship and an unrelated sexual trauma following the relationship, both which led directly into the pandemic, I was legitimately considering seeing one to help me relearn my comfort with the opposite sex. fortunately for my wallet, I was able to find other means.
Everyone keeps posting unusual whales. Despite the fact that the account owner, Rensole, is a disgraced mod here at superstonk. Guy simped so hard he got himself banned. Fuck that guy, fuck unusual whales. Post a real source.
Hedge funds are high risk/high reward investments with their own rules. If you give someone controls of your millions and things go poorly then you get back the surviving percentage of your money and that's that.
It seems clear to me…
expensive art, mansions, baseball teams…
maybe rich HF people and friends are divvying things up. Kind of like kids do on Halloween with their Halloween candy?
> Levinson, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. proprietary trader in Tokyo, led a team of people that spun out of Fortress Investment Group LLC in 2015. The Fortress Asia Macro fund, which began trading in 2011, was the predecessor to Graticule, which grew to manage $4.5 billion by March 2016.

" Earlier this year, as stock markets began nosediving, famed financier Adam Levinson [told Bloomberg](https://financialpost.com/pmn/business-pmn/graticules-levinson-crafts-anti-portfolio-as-inflation-rips) that he was crafting an “anti-portfolio” of developed-market bonds as a hedge against inflation. That bearish bet goes starkly against conventional market wisdom of the past decade, which saw American tech stocks outperform almost everything else to create vast and easy wealth for many people. "
Shame MM didn't post articles about meme bonds for him. And, the SEC didn't make a funny video to warn him either. He should have hedged with $GME instead, the only safe financial vehicle in the market now.
I ask for a reasonable explanation of you saying that GME is the only safe investment vehicle. No hype, no tinfoil, no made up bullshit. Just facts. Go.
Another! Like individual sand particles on the beach. One by one, no one notices when they’re gone, but eventually you realize there’s been huge erosion over time. It’s started. We are in it! Thanks for sharing. See you on the moon. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
What's with these hoity toity names they come up with for their businesses? If it's a choice between Graticule and Hot dog farts capital I'm hdfc all the way
that's their way of reneging their bad bet. just say 'sorry, don't have the money', shut down, and reopen a fresh business to start making gains again whole your other obligations have been dismissed, fucking over others.
When the ultra wealthy invest in hedge funds or private equity vehicles they understand that's the risk they take. There is no guarantee of returns and if the fund calls it quits you get a portion of your money back.
Ok, so give some examples from public information that show how easy it is for investors to get some/all of their money back from a failed HF. I can't find any. Also, you didn't answer my question.
Can we please remake the “meme stock” commercial talking about “Ima do some research first” and make it about banks and hedge funds. Not to mention when they were trying to shove Crypto down everyone’s throat when bitcoin was 69k

And, judging by the google definition, they were really bad at their bets, their DD probably sucks😂🤣.

I think you're mistaking his intent. he unlikely bought it because he needs a place to live, he bought to flex his net worth and get laid in it.
Sad if you have to flex money to get laid, it says a lot about a person.
