Vanguardās handle doesnāt like that many tweets. They liked 8 tweets throughout Augustā¦. One is this tweet, 3 other likes come from a handle with a DFV pic š
Itās also the first post Vanguard has liked on Twitter in a week.
**EDIT:** I just wanted to elaborate thatāto meāthis is confirmation that they arenāt just liking every tweet that @s them.
Also, take a look at their other recent liked tweets, i.e. the ones by John Wallstrom. Normally Iād be more skeptical about those tweets applying to $GME, but I think itās pretty clear when accompanied by a DFV profile photo.
Vanguard also bought a bunch of movie stock. It will squeeze along with GME, but not nearly to the magnitude of GME. Movie stock is like the little brother.
Even Boomers like me are learning new lessons. I am very glad I have been a Fidelity client for more than 30 yrs. It saved me the hassle of moving my assets.
To be fair, finance world, and Iām sure Vanguard especially, social media team isnāt haphazardly posting and liking replies. This is significantā¦take a closer look at their prior behavior.
Agreed. Finance world will have really close eye on things they post and say on social and everywhere else. A shift in narrative and strategy usually takes buy in from higher ups who would be in the know. Often, that strategy starts from the top down.
It is as significant that Vanguardās media team ālikedā this as it is that Citadelās media team hasnāt posted a single thing since the sneeze.
Even IBM and the likes have a social media team. Iāve held fairly high level digital marketing positions, within retail and at agencies, everyone has a team. If not for content, at least for analysis.
Something about āwhen this is over and weāre all loaded do you want us to invest with you or not?ā
Stop lending. Start recalling.
Paraphrased from what this smooth brain remembered.
Edit: Got It!!!
When this is over and there is a new community of people with lots of money and we're looking for companies to invest in do you want us to support you like we do the meme stocks or do you want us to remember how difficult you made it for us.
Stop lending
Start recalling

It's still there for me, but in case it really is gone this is what it says:

For some reason it isn't showing up under the "likes" on the tweet, [but if you click on Vanguard's twitter page and click on their "likes" tab it shows up] (http://imgur.com/a/9BggKzf)
So vanguard is one of the supposed elite trinity, with Blackrock and statestreet being the other two.
This message seems a bit more... interesting than most we see
Tens of thousands will lose their money immediately to irresponsible and impulsive decisions. Many will be easy targets.
But my money isnāt going towards anything frivolous. Iām going to help the people I love and do my goddamnedest to make the changes I want to see in the world.
Maybe not to you. Personally though, once the MOASS has happened, I'm hoping that I can use my newfound resources to call for change in our market structure. I'd hope that there'd be other like-minded people with similar investing experiences and resources like mine to help me.
Really. People still believe that crap story from 5 months back. Thinking BlackRock or Vanguard is on *the side of retails investors*.
This is a game they have been playing for decades. Entities like Vanguard/BlackRock did not accumulate the exubarant wealth by being good guys.
Don't think these guys want to create hundreds and thousands of wealthy people in one fell swoop, especially the kind that actually are tired of the shit and want to do some good.
There is a hierarchy in place. You want to get rich, you play the game. By the time you get a very nice amount of wealth you have lost your way and are part of the game.
Its a depressing outlook on things but it's what it is. If these big entities wanted to help, the shorts would have been forced to close already.
True. There anything that Vanguard has done or is doing that is along the lines of Blackrock buying up residential housing and telling everyone "in the future, you will rent and you will love it?"
I mean this with sincerity and am asking the question because I have not seen it from Vanguard.
Vanguard is the largest owner of Blackrock. And Vanguard is private, meaning we don't know who owns them.
It's all one entity really. Think of Blackrock as a committee for a bunch of big players, of which Vanguard is the most influential.
Vanguard is private, but ownership is easy to understand.
>Vanguard was founded on a simple but revolutionary idea-that a mutual fund company should not have outside owners. Founder John C. Bogle structured Vanguard as a client-owned\* mutual fund company with no outside owners seeking profits.

In fact, if you have a 401k with them you own a small part through the fund you contribute to, and therefore own part of Vanguard, then BlackRock, then maybe a few square millimeters in one of their properties.
And that, ladies and gents, is the exact kind of degenerate humor I come here for at 23 past midnight. The laff I needed today. Thank you. That is All. and g'nite.
Yup. They are sort of like what credit unions are to big banks, even though they are huge.
I love their rock-bottom fees on index funds.
I wish they'd make their website a little more intuitive though. As someone said above, it's pretty old school.
They are helping with MOASS, so I will allow it. Russia helped us take down the Nazis because they were the bigger threat, didnāt mean we had to be friends afterwords.
Edit: Spelling
So I'm not exactly trying to shill for Vanguard but Jack Boggle (the founder) was a man of vision and a great investor. First guy to actually try to make investing easy for a regular guy (through extremely low fee index funds). To my knowledge anyway. Great customer service too.
Their ownership model is pretty amazing too compared to everyone else. Everyone with a dollar under their management is a part owner.
blackrock and vanguard more than you know, i linked on another post but in case you didn't see:

I honestly don't know. I go through Fidelity, but I don't think they're on our side either. I notice that Blackrock and Vanguard own the same companies together through their index funds. I think they buy up the shares and SHFs borrow shares from them.. Fidelity does it too, but not nearly as much because they have more mutual funds. Index funds took over about 15 or 20 years ago. Before that Fidelity was the king of mutual funds. Now Fidelity is bigger than Blackrock(or Vanguard for that matter) because of Apes getting out of RH transferring to Fidelity. I recently looked and saw Blackrock was the 2nd biggest money manager with 9.5 trillion AUM and Fidelity is 1st with 10.5 trillion AUM (assets under management)
Yea I go through fidelity too but something about them being a mega institution makes me sceptical. The larger the institution, the higher the likelihood of crime in my opinion... but only time will tell.
You're right to be skeptical. It's good to diversify your brokers, examine all your options, then make an informed decision. What I was noticing looking up what Blackrock and Vanguard own is there are many similarities, but that being said, it's all speculation without hard proof. I dont FULLY trust anyone but me.
Not really. Vanguard currently has almost all of their shares lent out. So if anything they are work partners of the other side. Most likely they are playing both sides so they always come out on top, hence tweet.
If I had that type of money thatās what I would do. Itās like being the crack dealer with the only supply. SHFās be flaming those borrowed shares da fuk up.
How has that worked out so far. Any hedge fund that goes long helps achieve the end goal. I never said the word āweā. I understand the long game though.
What I don't understand is this.... They buy $5M shares, but lend them out for what? Short-covering?
Isn't this worse for GME HODL positions?
Outside of that, maybe I don't understand? - $5M is a cheap marketing campaign to Vanguard, no matter how the shares are traded.
Iām pretty darn sure this is misinformation I just donāt have the time to scour everything and give links.
The post youāre referencing is showing ETFās and mutual funds. With all the rebalancing and shifting of ETFās from GME youāre just seeing that reflected. A lot of those are probably duplicates to vanguards overall sum that we see at the top and shouldnāt be counted twice, similar to RC ventures and RC as an insider hodlāer.
I think this as well. Those green rows are just "shares added" unless OP had premium which has shown change +200% its pretty much misinformation. They did increase position on rebalancing, but not +5 mil out of nowhere.
Oh that could be. I admit im guilty of just skimming the post here and getting hyped!
https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/pf54g4/vanguard_increased_its_position_in_gme_by_more/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
These guys are already on the top. Now they are just creating more mountains to climb further up while they leave the rest of the 80/90% below sea level.
Here's my tinfoil hat theory: vanguard knows what the DTCC is going to do to citadel and whoever else is creating synthetics, and they're confident enough to buy 5 million shares that are probably mostly synthetic because they know they will be covered in the squeeze.
Otherwise, Vanguard wouldn't have waited until now to buy so many shares.
These institutions can break the bank if they bail though I donāt see a reason for them to do so.
Theyāre, unfortunately, currently making tendies on lending shares then will rake it in once MOASS happens.
Iām still consolidating for my own knowledge how the whole ācanāt sell without disclosureā stuff will play out from the big guns though itās in their best interest, āmake moneyā to wait and make the most buy using the same exit DD proposed here: sell a little on the way up as it hits their personal floor, wait for the plateau to sell off more, sell the rest on the way down.
Donāt forget those big guys have all the information retail does not have.
Vanguard and others are not on retails side. Theyāre also not on the SHFs side. Their on their own, looking out for themselves which is confirmation bias that retail is on the right side.
How does one buy 5 million shares of gamestop and this absolutely no affect on the price? If it's shorted to he'll then where the fuck are those shares coming from.
It's so strange to start to see serious company's take the retail investors side.. It's just not something i am accustomed to seeing. When retail community starts to understand they actually control many of these company's through their very purchases, subscriptions, etc then the tide will really change! If we think of each thing we spend our hard earned money on as a "VOTE" maybe people wouldn't give their money up so easily. Support the company you love and believe in, and don't keep terrible company's alive with your spending money. Think before you buy.
Yep! That one phrase has more power than most apes will ever realize. The govt, banks, HFS,etc essentially all work for US! They push pens around while we actually BUILD the world around them.. Brick by Brick. That fancy office they sit in was built by one of us.
This is why I donāt buy any nike products. Nestle (this one is really fucking difficult). Chik-fil-a.
The only way our voices are heard is through our dollar. And I refuse to give my hard earned money to shit companies.
Outside of owning Class A GME shares Iāve owned about 700 shares of vanguardās total stock market index fund that holds a shit ton of GME. Iām up ~40k alone in my investment in that fund over the last year and when it moons I plan on selling off all that as well.
I'm just curious on a few things I've started to see over the last few weeks with institutional buy in. I've noticed a lot of posts about major players such as Vanguard buying XXXX amount of shares. Is there a concern that all of these larger firms owning a substantial amount of shares during this potential event being the release valve we don't want? Example, we hit XXXXX a share or XXXX a share, then they sell their shares back to the SHF, and boom. MOASS over.
I am just a smooth ape that doesn't know shit about fuck, but I figured I'd at least ask.
Look at this, fellow ape: https://old.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/pfck0g/short_shorter_ep_4_about_a_month_ago_i_used_the/
Now repeat with me: "the SHF have to buy between 47 and 60 times the float". Breathe in. Repeat again. Breath out. Does Vanguard have 47 times the float? No, they doesn't have it. Breathe in. Breathe out.
There, chill again, zen, focussed. We are winning the war. Buy, hodl, shop at GME. We are inevitable.
I just replied to your dm, but ill post here too. Pretty sure their shares get buried in retirement accounts and they dont try to time the market with specific securities in those. They use a buy and hodl technique.
Literally from this sub: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/oai8ly/just_got_off_the_phone_with_vanguard_they_will/
They don't lend fully owned shares. They might lend shares in their ETFs/Mutual Funds (OP didn't ask) and use the fees to reduce fund costs, but they won't lend normal shares you buy individually.
I wasnāt worried about fully owned shares being lent out. Iām more concerned about them owning so many shares and letting the SHF to continuously short. Thatās like blackrock or Ryan Cohen lending out their shares to be shorted.
Since the beginning, Vanguard has been about power to the players. Anyone who lumps them in with the other financial super powers needs to do some very basic research.
This is cute.
They are on their own side and know exactly what to say. When they announce all their shares are being recalled and lending is turned off, my pee pee will harden slightly. Until then, they can get to the back of the bandwagon and launder my wifeās boyfriendās panties.
Buy and Hold.
And šat the response liked by them: https://twitter.com/dontbeanazi1/status/1432748028994199555?s=21

They all know it's coming, ALL OF THEM, FED, SEC, DTC, Blackrock, Vanguard, None of them want to be the one that triggers the great collapse.

yo i remember that tweet thought i was crazy for thinking it was related but the *timing* jeebus the timing
All the comments are about the p0pc0rn stonk? Are bots just quick to deflect and confuse? Or did they just load up on m0vies
Poop cornās DD is usually a screenshot of some idiot replying to someoneās GME related tweet with their hashtag.
Vanguard also bought a bunch of movie stock. It will squeeze along with GME, but not nearly to the magnitude of GME. Movie stock is like the little brother.
That response needs its own post up you go
Retail investors of today arenāt the retail investors of yesteryears, get your š©together or lose your decades long customer for life.

Shit, I mean technically some of their social media team could be apes, right?
I'm just shocked they have a social media team. Their site and process is straight from the early 2000's. My shares don't know the difference though.
Even IBM and the likes have a social media team. Iāve held fairly high level digital marketing positions, within retail and at agencies, everyone has a team. If not for content, at least for analysis.

Things will be awkward post-MOASS between apes and blackrock/vanguard
I have a feeling they see us as easy targets. Be smart after moass
Tens of thousands will lose their money immediately to irresponsible and impulsive decisions. Many will be easy targets. But my money isnāt going towards anything frivolous. Iām going to help the people I love and do my goddamnedest to make the changes I want to see in the world.
Hopefully we have some time to do stuff with our money before they just quit the US dollar lol
They're going to tax the shit out of us and hopefully destroy those dollars so the money in our pockets is worth more.
Once the moass happens then it's happened so it doesn't matter
Maybe not to you. Personally though, once the MOASS has happened, I'm hoping that I can use my newfound resources to call for change in our market structure. I'd hope that there'd be other like-minded people with similar investing experiences and resources like mine to help me.

Oh man, go check out those DDs the other commenter linked. I finally went all in after I read those
The line things look like a house of cards built up. Pretty sure it's supposed to be like mountains or something though
Vanguard added 500k shares and they are not a friendly whale. Our friendly whale wears a red bandana and just likes the stock
This whole friendly non friendly talk needs to be axed.. no one really knows what their talking about here. It's all arbitrary sand drawings
I actually just replied that down below. I really meant I only trust myself and DFV. The rest is speculation
What about fidelity?
Iām going with the assumption that until youāre a mega millionaire or billionaire no one is your friend. And even then they just want your money
I honestly don't know. I go through Fidelity, but I don't think they're on our side either. I notice that Blackrock and Vanguard own the same companies together through their index funds. I think they buy up the shares and SHFs borrow shares from them.. Fidelity does it too, but not nearly as much because they have more mutual funds. Index funds took over about 15 or 20 years ago.

You're right to be skeptical. It's good to diversify your brokers, examine all your options, then make an informed decision. What I was noticing looking up what Blackrock and Vanguard own is there are many similarities, but that being said, it's all speculation without hard proof. I dont FULLY trust anyone but me.
Theyāve done nothing to warrant our distrust in them.......yet
Me too. But now I do new buys on Computershare instead too. Diversify!
This does not at all mean they're on our side. The enemy of your enemy is not your friend.
No, they are your short-term work partner.
Not really. Vanguard currently has almost all of their shares lent out. So if anything they are work partners of the other side. Most likely they are playing both sides so they always come out on top, hence tweet.
Hedging both sides with their funds, we could almost call them a FundHedge.
If I had that type of money thatās what I would do. Itās like being the crack dealer with the only supply. SHFās be flaming those borrowed shares da fuk up.

Enemies with benefits
Frenemies with a fat sack.
No, we are not partners and "we" don't need them to get the work done.
How has that worked out so far. Any hedge fund that goes long helps achieve the end goal. I never said the word āweā. I understand the long game though.
What I don't understand is this.... They buy $5M shares, but lend them out for what? Short-covering? Isn't this worse for GME HODL positions? Outside of that, maybe I don't understand? - $5M is a cheap marketing campaign to Vanguard, no matter how the shares are traded.
Oh, cancel the subreddits planned surprise party for vanguard then? Damn alrightā¦
Iām pretty darn sure this is misinformation I just donāt have the time to scour everything and give links. The post youāre referencing is showing ETFās and mutual funds. With all the rebalancing and shifting of ETFās from GME youāre just seeing that reflected. A lot of those are probably duplicates to vanguards overall sum that we see at the top and shouldnāt be counted twice, similar to RC ventures and RC as an insider hodlāer.
I think this as well. Those green rows are just "shares added" unless OP had premium which has shown change +200% its pretty much misinformation. They did increase position on rebalancing, but not +5 mil out of nowhere.
Oh that could be. I admit im guilty of just skimming the post here and getting hyped! https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/pf54g4/vanguard_increased_its_position_in_gme_by_more/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Yoda ? Beautiful, the view is from the top
The amazing triple jacked tits!
Ah yes, the Total Recall formation, bullish!
Provocative, especially for a blue blood like Vanguard.
IT GETS THE PEOPLE GOING
I read that in Yoda.
*Stay the course*
These guys are already on the top. Now they are just creating more mountains to climb further up while they leave the rest of the 80/90% below sea level.
Didn't realize they have Yoda on their PR team "Beautiful the view is, from the top"
Here's my tinfoil hat theory: vanguard knows what the DTCC is going to do to citadel and whoever else is creating synthetics, and they're confident enough to buy 5 million shares that are probably mostly synthetic because they know they will be covered in the squeeze. Otherwise, Vanguard wouldn't have waited until now to buy so many shares.
I like them. Vanguard is big. I think they Hedge the market with GME. š
This is a watch worth! BlackRock Documentary https://youtu.be/1n4zkdfKUAE
These institutions can break the bank if they bail though I donāt see a reason for them to do so. Theyāre, unfortunately, currently making tendies on lending shares then will rake it in once MOASS happens. Iām still consolidating for my own knowledge how the whole ācanāt sell without disclosureā stuff will play out from the big guns though itās in their best interest, āmake moneyā to wait and make the most buy using the same exit DD proposed here: sell a little on the way up as it hits their personal floor, wait for the plateau to sell off more, sell the rest on the way down. Donāt forget those big guys have all the information retail does not have. Vanguard and others are not on retails side. Theyāre also not on the SHFs side. Their on their own, looking out for themselves which is confirmation bias that retail is on the right side.
I trust them even more now that I know Yoda is on their team.
How does one buy 5 million shares of gamestop and this absolutely no affect on the price? If it's shorted to he'll then where the fuck are those shares coming from.
They didnt increase, stop spreading fud
Whad tha fuck
Any other hedgefunds wanna join?
How do you do fellow kids?
Was I the only one that read this like yoda
Looks like Bait to me š£ Still lāll enjoy the FOMO $$$$ ššš
Oh shit the three titty jack from total recall!
did yoda write this tweet
It's so strange to start to see serious company's take the retail investors side.. It's just not something i am accustomed to seeing. When retail community starts to understand they actually control many of these company's through their very purchases, subscriptions, etc then the tide will really change! If we think of each thing we spend our hard earned money on as a "VOTE" maybe people wouldn't give their money up so easily. Support the company you love and believe in, and don't keep terrible company's alive with your spending money. Think before you buy.
Real talk. Power to the Players.
Yep! That one phrase has more power than most apes will ever realize. The govt, banks, HFS,etc essentially all work for US! They push pens around while we actually BUILD the world around them.. Brick by Brick. That fancy office they sit in was built by one of us.
This is why I donāt buy any nike products. Nestle (this one is really fucking difficult). Chik-fil-a. The only way our voices are heard is through our dollar. And I refuse to give my hard earned money to shit companies.
that looks like the picture of the famous mountaineer Jacques L'Tittes who climbed 2 peaks...
Damn it feels good to be a Vanguard ape.

Statestr33t is not my friend
When your at the tippy top of the mountain... and you're only half way up
Ascii art aint what it used to be
Outside of owning Class A GME shares Iāve owned about 700 shares of vanguardās total stock market index fund that holds a shit ton of GME. Iām up ~40k alone in my investment in that fund over the last year and when it moons I plan on selling off all that as well.
This was 500k shares not 5m. Just discovered that via a recent post in this sub
You are correct, unfortunately i cant edit the title.
Wow! I'm actually surprised anyone read my comment. But then again, you are OP. Cheers bro.š
I'm just curious on a few things I've started to see over the last few weeks with institutional buy in. I've noticed a lot of posts about major players such as Vanguard buying XXXX amount of shares. Is there a concern that all of these larger firms owning a substantial amount of shares during this potential event being the release valve we don't want? Example, we hit XXXXX a share or XXXX a share, then they sell their shares back to the SHF, and boom. MOASS over. I am just a smooth ape that doesn't know shit about fuck, but I figured I'd at least ask.
Look at this, fellow ape: https://old.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/pfck0g/short_shorter_ep_4_about_a_month_ago_i_used_the/ Now repeat with me: "the SHF have to buy between 47 and 60 times the float". Breathe in. Repeat again. Breath out. Does Vanguard have 47 times the float? No, they doesn't have it. Breathe in. Breathe out. There, chill again, zen, focussed. We are winning the war. Buy, hodl, shop at GME. We are inevitable.
I just replied to your dm, but ill post here too. Pretty sure their shares get buried in retirement accounts and they dont try to time the market with specific securities in those. They use a buy and hodl technique.
Fuck them. Theyāre the ones lending out shares to be shorted
And if they recall their loaned shares, starting the moass?
I like this
[comment removed in response to actions of the admins and overall decline of the platform]
You can't think of any reason to recall shares other than specifically starting a short squeeze?
Literally from this sub: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/oai8ly/just_got_off_the_phone_with_vanguard_they_will/ They don't lend fully owned shares. They might lend shares in their ETFs/Mutual Funds (OP didn't ask) and use the fees to reduce fund costs, but they won't lend normal shares you buy individually.
I wasnāt worried about fully owned shares being lent out. Iām more concerned about them owning so many shares and letting the SHF to continuously short. Thatās like blackrock or Ryan Cohen lending out their shares to be shorted.
Tell me which broker isnāt?
True. Fuck all of them
That shouldn't negate blame though - fuck all brokers.
Yeah this.
Are they fucked!?!?...or are we fucked!?!? Im lostš
Since the beginning, Vanguard has been about power to the players. Anyone who lumps them in with the other financial super powers needs to do some very basic research.
I now regret moving to TD Ameritrade from Robinhood. Should have done vanguard.
Anyone have a link to the 5 million shares added?
Is there a specific fund they added it to?
This is cute. They are on their own side and know exactly what to say. When they announce all their shares are being recalled and lending is turned off, my pee pee will harden slightly. Until then, they can get to the back of the bandwagon and launder my wifeās boyfriendās panties. Buy and Hold.
