And that's interesting to you?

00:08:11,658 --> 00:08:12,742
Yeah.

Yeah.
192
00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:40,497
Sorry. About what?
193
00:09:41,664 --> 00:09:42,791
GameStop.
194
00:09:42,791 --> 00:09:45,543
The most compelling
asymmetric opportunity in the market?
195
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:49,964
- What, did Briggsy make you jumpy?
- A little.
196
00:09:49,964 --> 00:09:52,091
- What was his argument?
- He didn't have one.
197
00:09:52,091 --> 00:09:54,677
- Well.
- He just said it was a reckless bet.
198
00:09:54,677 --> 00:09:57,055
He said "you're putting your money
in the next Blockbuster."
199
00:09:57,055 --> 00:09:57,972
Enough. Fuck Briggsy.
200
00:09:57,972 --> 00:10:01,351
Babe, you literally know more about
this damn company than you know about me.
201
00:10:01,810 --> 00:10:02,727
It's true.
202
00:10:02,727 --> 00:10:05,730
And because of you, I know more about
this company than I know about myself.

We can't afford to miss something.

Uh, I've done a few of these now,
mostly on my investing methodology.

Uh, but today I'm gonna try something
a little different.

you guys have been leaving me by the way.

Uh... Oh! More feedback comin' in hot.
222
00:11:51,502 --> 00:11:55,298
"Less cats." Okay. Great.
223
00:11:55,298 --> 00:11:58,927
Ah, like I was saying--
Uh, what was I saying?
224
00:11:58,927 --> 00:11:59,886
Ah, I'm gonna try...
225
00:11:59,886 --> 00:12:02,096
Oh, and here's one from Ballz.
226
00:12:02,096 --> 00:12:03,598
"Nerd."
227
00:12:03,598 --> 00:12:05,600
And nerd is in all capitals.
228

But okay, fair.

You know what?
233
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:20,114
Thanks for the comments.
We're gonna come back to them at the end.
234
00:12:20,114 --> 00:12:21,407
Here's what I wanna talk about.
235
00:12:22,283 --> 00:12:25,536
Uh, I'm gonna pick a stock and
talk about why I think it's interesting.
236
00:12:25,536 --> 00:12:27,497
And that stock is...
237
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:30,917
GameStop. Uh...
238
00:12:31,709 --> 00:12:33,086
I know it's a polarizing stock
239
00:12:33,086 --> 00:12:35,588
and some of you probably gonna
tune out of the stream right now
240
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:38,091
when you hear I'm bullish on GameStop.
But I am.
241
00:12:38,091 --> 00:12:42,178
You can see it is now the biggest position
by far in the Roaring Kitty portfolio.
242
00:12:42,178 --> 00:12:43,096
So...
243
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:46,140
yeah, I think everyone else is crazy,
and I think I'm right.
244
00:12:46,140 --> 00:12:50,687
But I've been wrong plenty of times
in the past. So, uh...
245
00:12:50,687 --> 00:12:54,232
So there are a lot of aspects to this
bold thesis, a lot of moving parts,
246
00:12:54,232 --> 00:12:56,734
but I boil it down
to what I consider the three overs:
247
00:12:56,734 --> 00:12:59,070
The digital risks seem to me
to be overblown,
248
00:12:59,070 --> 00:13:00,530
the negative sentiment is overdone,
249
00:13:00,530 --> 00:13:02,281
you can see it
with the huge short interest,
250
00:13:02,281 --> 00:13:04,200
and the value is overlooked.
251
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,369
Wall Street just doesn't see it.
252
00:13:06,995 --> 00:13:08,162
Why?
253
00:13:08,162 --> 00:13:11,416
Mr. Market, why?
254
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:14,919
The hedge funds are overlooking
the value in the company
255
00:13:14,919 --> 00:13:17,630
just like they overlook
the people who shop there.
256
00:13:17,630 --> 00:13:20,341
They assume most people download
games online now.
257
00:13:20,341 --> 00:13:24,679
But look, 25% of gamers
still buy new discs from GameStop,
258
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,724
and 40% buy used games from the store.
259
00:13:27,724 --> 00:13:29,684
And the market's kinda forced
my hand here.
260
00:13:29,684 --> 00:13:32,645
What more can I say?
I just like the stock.

from a guy in a cat shirt.

Oh, okay.
Who do you take investment advice from?
277
00:14:09,098 --> 00:14:15,772
I don't have investments. And if I did,
I'd listen to, like, a banker.

00:14:31,913 --> 00:14:33,081
[Jenny] Okay, fine.
287
00:14:33,081 --> 00:14:36,000
Wall Street is betting
that this company is gonna fail.
288
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,585
It's called shorting.
289
00:14:37,585 --> 00:14:41,172
And if it fails, well,
then everybody loses their job,
290
00:14:41,172 --> 00:14:43,841
but these hedge fund assholes
make a shit ton of money.
291

for rich people to get richer.

00:24:18,082 --> 00:24:20,292
That is my entire nut from last year.
510
00:24:20,292 --> 00:24:22,086
The man is an asshole. Just admit it.
511
00:24:22,086 --> 00:24:24,505
You're just bitter
he stole those analysts.
512
00:24:24,505 --> 00:24:26,548
You seen Citadel's projected revenue?
513
00:24:26,548 --> 00:24:28,759
$7 billion.
514
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:31,387
That's, uh, double last year.
515
00:24:31,387 --> 00:24:33,514
Hoovering up all the stimulus checks.
516
00:24:33,514 --> 00:24:35,599
- They go straight from the retail traders
- Thank you.
517
00:24:35,599 --> 00:24:37,393
right into Kenny boy's pockets.
518
00:24:37,393 --> 00:24:41,563
The man just gets away with murder.
Look at what I just sent you.
519
00:24:49,238 --> 00:24:52,825
Is this a video of a man drinking
his own urine because a stock went up?

Where did you get this?
522
00:24:55,703 --> 00:24:57,663
My analysts sent it to me.
523
00:24:57,663 --> 00:25:02,835
They call themselves apes and r-words.
Retard, can they say that?
524
00:25:02,835 --> 00:25:06,964
Remarkably self-aware. They've hooked
into GameStop for whatever reason.
525
00:25:06,964 --> 00:25:08,716
They think it's funny, it seems.
526
00:25:08,716 --> 00:25:10,092
I think it's funny.
527
00:25:10,092 --> 00:25:11,802
I think they think it's a good investment.
528
00:25:11,802 --> 00:25:14,179
Retail traders always lose.
529
00:25:16,014 --> 00:25:18,142
We've actually been short GameStop
since 2014.
530
00:25:18,142 --> 00:25:23,188
The company is a complete disaster.
They've had six CEOs in two years.
531
00:25:24,189 --> 00:25:26,692
Guess these guys are ignoring
obvious secular market trends.
532
00:25:26,692 --> 00:25:29,820
Or they're...
the stupidest people on earth.
533
00:25:29,820 --> 00:25:32,281
You're shorting more right now,
aren't you?
534
00:25:32,281 --> 00:25:34,783
600,000 shares, maybe.
535
00:25:35,367 --> 00:25:36,994

536
00:25:36,994 --> 00:25:38,495

[automated voice] Listen up, retards,
541
00:25:49,673 --> 00:25:54,678
Melvin Capital has declared war on GME
by shorting the stock even more.
542
00:25:54,678 --> 00:25:58,766
This is our call to activate
diamond hands, my fellow warriors.
543
00:25:58,766 --> 00:26:03,771
We will not let the gay bears defeat us.
We are on a mission to the fucking moon.
544
00:26:03,771 --> 00:26:06,815
This is one that is bigger
than your personal gains.
545
00:26:06,815 --> 00:26:09,443
More than just tendies for a new Lambo.
546
00:26:09,443 --> 00:26:13,614
This is our chance to rise up together.
To stick it to the big man.
547
00:26:13,614 --> 00:26:15,866
Squeezing Melvin by the fucking balls
548
00:26:15,866 --> 00:26:18,786
with the collective power
of diamond handing autists.
549
00:26:19,369 --> 00:26:22,790
Wall Street Bets I thought were a bunch
of idiots just throwing money at a stock
550
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:24,500
because they thought it was funny.
551
00:26:24,500 --> 00:26:25,834
I was wrong.
552
00:26:25,834 --> 00:26:28,378
Now I see what Wall Street Bets really is.
553
00:26:28,378 --> 00:26:31,423
- It is a revolution.
- This is one of those rare moments
554
00:26:31,423 --> 00:26:33,550
where Wall Street are the ones
getting screwed over.
555
00:26:33,550 --> 00:26:35,260
And when we decide we're hungry,
556
00:26:35,260 --> 00:26:37,721
there is very little
the rich can do to stop us
557
00:26:37,721 --> 00:26:39,890
- from beating them.
- It's a GameStop to stop the game.
558
00:26:39,890 --> 00:26:42,059
- Power to the people.
- I'm jerking off right now.

2020... See ya.

2020 has been a very rough year
for my family too.
566
00:27:00,828 --> 00:27:03,914
So this GameStop news
has been a bit of a bright spot.
567
00:27:03,914 --> 00:27:06,500
Uh, look at this, I mean, where it's at.
568
00:27:06,500 --> 00:27:10,212
It's a five bagger
from where it was over the summer.
569
00:27:10,212 --> 00:27:14,216
You don't often see a thesis
play out like this.
570
00:27:14,216 --> 00:27:15,300
So we gotta--
571
00:27:15,300 --> 00:27:17,928
We can't take it for granted, right?
We gotta appreciate it.
572
00:27:18,846 --> 00:27:21,265
Thank you, Santa. Right.
573
00:27:22,015 --> 00:27:25,811
Uh, I wanted to say cheers all of you.

You're why I'm here in the first place.
575
00:27:28,730 --> 00:27:31,817
Uh, it's fun to talk about.
I mean, I figure,
576
00:27:31,817 --> 00:27:34,403
if I worked at a hedge fund,
I'd compare notes with my colleagues.
577
00:27:34,403 --> 00:27:36,989
But I don't.
I'm stuck at home like you guys. So...
578
00:27:36,989 --> 00:27:39,366
Uh, I believe in this stock.
579
00:27:39,366 --> 00:27:41,702
And I believe in this community.
580
00:27:42,369 --> 00:27:43,579
Um...
581
00:27:43,579 --> 00:27:48,458
I'll be honest, uh,
it's been kind of a shitty year.
582
00:27:49,710 --> 00:27:54,464
Uh, for a lot of people. Lotta people
lost people the past 12 months. I did too.

00:27:54,464 --> 00:27:56,717
Uh, my sister, Sara.

I don't talk about it much.

But it felt right to tell you.
588
00:28:11,398 --> 00:28:13,734
Uh, we've been through so much together.
589
00:28:13,734 --> 00:28:16,862
You've made me feel a part of something,
something big.

from bag boy to general manager.
633

Then one of these Wall Street funds
came in, bought it,
634
00:31:01,985 --> 00:31:06,448

and then declared bankruptcy.

He lost his pension. Everything.

the same thing to GameStop.

678
00:33:24,336 --> 00:33:26,171
[Nat]
So, you're one of these tech companies
679
00:33:26,171 --> 00:33:28,506
that's exploded growth-wise,
but doesn't make any money.
680
00:33:28,506 --> 00:33:30,342
- We make money.
- [Nat] But how?
681
00:33:30,342 --> 00:33:33,345
- If you don't charge commission then...
- From interest on people's accounts.
682
00:33:33,345 --> 00:33:34,930
[Nat] But your users are mostly young.
683
00:33:34,930 --> 00:33:37,724
So, how much money can they
really be keeping in their account?
684
00:33:37,724 --> 00:33:39,351
There's also payment for order flow.
685
00:33:39,351 --> 00:33:40,268
What's that?
686
00:33:40,268 --> 00:33:43,146
We prefer the term "stock order routing."
687
00:33:43,146 --> 00:33:45,106
When you buy or sell a stock on our app,
688
00:33:45,106 --> 00:33:47,901
we send your order to market makers,
who process the order.
689
00:33:47,901 --> 00:33:50,278
They pay us a tiny rebate on every trade.
690
00:33:50,278 --> 00:33:52,072
- Tiny.
- But it adds up.
691
00:33:52,072 --> 00:33:54,407
We should really get back to how we...
started our company.
692
00:33:54,407 --> 00:33:55,909
What market maker do you work with?
693
00:33:55,909 --> 00:33:58,203
A few. Citadel Securities mostly.
694
00:33:58,203 --> 00:34:00,580
Ken Griffin's firm?
Isn't that a hedge fund?
695
00:34:00,580 --> 00:34:04,167
Well, Ken Griffin's hedge fund
is called Citadel.
696
00:34:04,167 --> 00:34:06,836
But Citadel Securities
is a completely different company.
697
00:34:06,836 --> 00:34:08,630
Also owned by Ken Griffin?
698
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:11,132
All right,

but we'll give you a scoop.

[Colbert] Here's what's going on.
Late last year,
827
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:40,438
hedge funds started shorting stock
in the retail store GameStop.
828
00:40:40,438 --> 00:40:44,025
Meaning they had bet against it
and needed it to drop in price
829
00:40:44,025 --> 00:40:47,820
for their investments to be successful.
Now unfortunately for the hedge funds,
830
00:40:47,820 --> 00:40:53,368
small investors started buying the stock
led by something called Wall Street Bets,
831
00:40:53,368 --> 00:40:57,038
a popular, juvenile,
foul-mouthed Reddit page.
832
00:40:57,038 --> 00:40:58,873
And when Wall Street Bets noticed
833
00:40:58,873 --> 00:41:02,710
that hedge funds had taken
a large short position in GameStop stock,
834
00:41:02,710 --> 00:41:05,380
they decided to punish
the Wall Street big boys
835
00:41:05,380 --> 00:41:08,216
and launched a coordinated buying spree.
836
00:41:08,841 --> 00:41:11,844
The revolutionaries on Reddit
are spanking Wall Street's ass.
837
00:41:11,844 --> 00:41:17,934
GameStop shares absolutely going nuts.
I think it was up over 70% at one point.

00:41:42,458 --> 00:41:45,628
Whoa-ho-ho-ho!
848
00:41:45,628 --> 00:41:48,256
Okay, now, if you've been watching
this price action,
849
00:41:48,256 --> 00:41:49,424
this is what I'm talking about.
850
00:41:49,424 --> 00:41:51,509
Yeah, but you can really feel that panic
from Wall Street, right.
851
00:41:51,509 --> 00:41:53,886
When they... we're starting to feel
a little squeeze. Starting to feel it.
852
00:41:53,886 --> 00:41:55,430
You're starting to really feel
a little squeeze.
853
00:41:55,430 --> 00:41:58,224
I need a drink. I need a drink.
I know we all drinking tonight.
854
00:41:58,224 --> 00:41:59,767
We fucking did it!
855
00:41:59,767 --> 00:42:02,562
We started from the bottom
and now we're here!
856
00:42:02,562 --> 00:42:05,940

- Let's raise a glass
857
00:42:05,940 --> 00:42:09,861
to a great company
that's undervalued, cheers.
858
00:42:10,445 --> 00:42:14,073
Soon may the tendiemen come...
Show me the tendies. Show me the tendies.
859
00:42:14,073 --> 00:42:15,324
I got 'em right here.
860
00:42:15,324 --> 00:42:18,703
Show me the tendies. I just gotta...
I just gotta dip.
861
00:42:18,703 --> 00:42:21,414
I just gotta... I just gotta dip. Ah!
862
00:42:22,832 --> 00:42:23,666
Mmm.
863
00:42:23,666 --> 00:42:26,502
♪ No way
And I would do... ♪
864
00:42:26,502 --> 00:42:29,338
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
865
00:42:29,338 --> 00:42:31,048
11 fucking million dollars?
866
00:42:31,048 --> 00:42:32,008
What the fuck!
867
00:42:32,008 --> 00:42:34,761
- Oh, language. The baby's here.
- What are you gonna do?
868
00:42:34,761 --> 00:42:37,054
Get a Ferrari? A Lambo?
869
00:42:37,054 --> 00:42:38,806
Caroline, you're gonna ask for
a big diamond, right?
870
00:42:38,806 --> 00:42:40,183
I have a diamond.
871
00:42:40,183 --> 00:42:42,643
Keith, you get a fucking diamond!
If I were you, I'd look like
872
00:42:42,643 --> 00:42:45,229
- DJ Khaled right now.
- Kev! It's not real.
873
00:42:45,229 --> 00:42:46,856
I mean, it's real, but it's just paper.
874
00:42:46,856 --> 00:42:49,942
Just on paper! You're gonna sell, right?
875
00:42:49,942 --> 00:42:51,235
- No!
- Maybe.
876
00:42:51,778 --> 00:42:54,489
I mean, I don't know. Uh...
877
00:42:54,489 --> 00:42:57,992
- We... we haven't talked about it.
- What the fuck is wrong with you?
878
00:42:57,992 --> 00:43:01,245
I'm riding Mom's bike every day
to Dorchester to drop off cheeseburgers
879
00:43:01,245 --> 00:43:02,705
because you won't let me use
your fucking car.
880
00:43:02,705 --> 00:43:04,874
And you're mister "I won't sell
and take millions of dollars."
881
00:43:04,874 --> 00:43:07,210
And, well, what you do with your life
is your choice.
882
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:10,129
You think I wanted to get laid off
from Dick's during a global pandemic?
883
00:43:10,129 --> 00:43:13,341
I love those sneakers, man.
I loved that store. I love Dick's.
884
00:43:13,341 --> 00:43:16,427
- Mom's bike doesn't even have gears.
- We don't know if it's reached the top.
885
00:43:16,427 --> 00:43:19,347
The stock jumped like 23% yesterday.
886
00:43:19,347 --> 00:43:21,224
- Double from Friday's close.
- But he's right.
887
00:43:21,224 --> 00:43:23,601
I mean, 11 million dollars
is a lot of fucking dough.
888
00:43:23,601 --> 00:43:24,852
- Thank you!
- [Keith] Okay, yes,
889
00:43:24,852 --> 00:43:27,980
but since Ryan Cohen
joined the board, the...
890
00:43:27,980 --> 00:43:29,315
This fucking guy.
891
00:43:29,315 --> 00:43:31,734
...got a 2 billion market cap.
I mean, could it go pff? Yeah.
892
00:43:31,734 --> 00:43:34,695
But that's not what I'm seeing.
That's not what I'm seeing, Kev.
893
00:43:35,780 --> 00:43:37,532
Kev? You there?
894
00:43:40,159 --> 00:43:41,285
Did he hang up?
895
00:43:41,994 --> 00:43:43,329
Yeah.
896
00:43:43,913 --> 00:43:44,831
[groans]
897
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,716
Fuck, I think hold.
898
00:43:55,716 --> 00:43:59,011
[pensive music playing]
899
00:43:59,011 --> 00:44:01,722
- [Chris] Girl, you gotta sell.
- [Jenny] I'm not selling.
900
00:44:01,722 --> 00:44:02,932
How much are you up?
901
00:44:02,932 --> 00:44:04,934
[Jenny] 58,000 and some change.
902
00:44:04,934 --> 00:44:07,395
[man speaking indistinctly]
903
00:44:07,395 --> 00:44:09,814
Baby girl, what the fuck?
904
00:44:09,814 --> 00:44:11,941
You need to get out while you can.
905
00:44:11,941 --> 00:44:14,610
- Don't be an idiot.
- You remember red headband guy.
906
00:44:14,610 --> 00:44:18,114
He's worth 11 million dollars.
And he's not selling.
907
00:44:18,114 --> 00:44:20,157
- No fucking way.
- [Jenny] Yes fucking way.
908
00:44:20,157 --> 00:44:22,785
This is what I'm telling you.
Diamond hands.
909
00:44:23,953 --> 00:44:27,498
Diamond hands. You hold the line
no matter what the market does.
910
00:44:27,498 --> 00:44:28,916
No matter what Wall Street says.
911
00:44:28,916 --> 00:44:30,960
What happens
when everyone else sells first,
912
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,713
and before you get out
you've lost all your money?
913
00:44:33,713 --> 00:44:35,464
[woman] Are there any volunteers?
914
00:44:35,464 --> 00:44:37,341
- [Jenny] I'm...
- [man] Anyone?
915
00:44:37,341 --> 00:44:39,552
- [Jenny] We're gonna hold the line.
- [woman] C'mon.
916
00:44:39,552 --> 00:44:41,679
- Someone has to go first.
- Okay, yeah. I'll do it.
917
00:44:47,059 --> 00:44:48,603
[man] Here we go everyone.
918
00:44:48,603 --> 00:44:51,606
The first Covid vaccine
at Pittsburgh Presbyterian.
919
00:44:51,606 --> 00:44:53,065
[Riri] Ah!
920
00:44:53,065 --> 00:44:54,525
Fuck! Fuck!
921
00:44:54,525 --> 00:44:58,529
Fuck! Guys, we need your help.
What should we do?
922
00:44:59,780 --> 00:45:03,618
So listen, my girl bought in under 20
and now it is over 60.
923
00:45:03,618 --> 00:45:05,536
So like, should she sell?
924
00:45:05,536 --> 00:45:07,830
On the one hand, she has principles.
925
00:45:08,873 --> 00:45:12,251
On the other,
she has 100k in student debt. So...
926
00:45:12,251 --> 00:45:15,004
One way you could think
about the comparison between
927
00:45:15,004 --> 00:45:17,632
Marxism and Utilitarian tradition
928
00:45:17,632 --> 00:45:21,344
is that they both have a micro story
and a macro story.
929
00:45:21,344 --> 00:45:23,721
When you think of Utilitarian tradition...
930
00:45:23,721 --> 00:45:28,142
The only thing that would convince her
to sell is if Roaring Kitty sold.
931
00:45:29,352 --> 00:45:31,771
So... Where my pussy at?
932
00:45:31,771 --> 00:45:34,857
[professor] You have the micro story
for the Pareto principle
933
00:45:34,857 --> 00:45:37,610
for how each individual action will go.
934
00:45:38,444 --> 00:45:39,695
But you also have a macro story.
935
00:45:39,695 --> 00:45:41,822
[over speakers]
Where my pussy at? Where my pussy at?
936
00:45:41,822 --> 00:45:43,991
- Where my pussy at?!
- [Harmony] Sorry.
937
00:45:43,991 --> 00:45:47,244
- Where my pussy aaaaatttt?!
- [students laughing]
938
00:45:47,244 --> 00:45:48,788
[Harmony] I'm so sorry.
939
00:45:48,788 --> 00:45:52,166
Hey, hey, where my pussy at? Ha!
940
00:45:52,166 --> 00:45:55,044
- Where is my pussy at?
- It's not in here.

- wait, listen, hold on.

they will tell these escorts?"

high enough, they'll cash out,

00:49:44,106 --> 00:49:46,358
- How much is GameStop up?
- Then, the exchange,
1014
00:49:46,358 --> 00:49:48,235
they halt trading on the stock
1015
00:49:48,235 --> 00:49:51,071
so the short sellers
can cover their positions.
1016
00:49:51,071 --> 00:49:52,740
Is that legal?
1017
00:49:52,740 --> 00:49:55,492
The founder had to declare bankruptcy. So...
1018
00:49:56,368 --> 00:49:57,870
it was all fine in the end.
1019
00:49:57,870 --> 00:50:00,414
And you knew all that or you looked it up?
1020
00:50:01,707 --> 00:50:03,667
Every fund manager knows that story.
1021
00:50:07,755 --> 00:50:09,131
You looked it up.
1022
00:50:10,966 --> 00:50:12,843
Double checked some numbers maybe.
1023
00:50:22,228 --> 00:50:25,147
[Steve Cohen]
Oh, do you see what's going on at GME?
1024
00:50:25,147 --> 00:50:27,441
- [Gabe] There's more of these idiots.
- [Steve] A lot more.
1025
00:50:27,441 --> 00:50:31,362
- [Gabe] They won't hold much longer.
- [Steve] Oh, Gabe, honey, they're holding.
1026
00:50:31,362 --> 00:50:33,447
It just crossed a hundred.
1027
00:50:33,447 --> 00:50:35,741
[tense, pensive music playing]
1028
00:50:35,741 --> 00:50:37,326
Gabe?
1029
00:50:37,326 --> 00:50:38,827
Where are you?
1030
00:50:43,249 --> 00:50:45,251
You should probably dial in.
1031
00:50:45,251 --> 00:50:46,877
Yeah, be on in one sec.
1032
00:50:46,877 --> 00:50:49,588
[man on TV]
GameStop, extraordinary volatility today.
1033
00:50:49,588 --> 00:50:51,840
You know, we might want
to make this the stock of the day.
1034
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,177
Now that it's gaining 103%.
That is volatility.
1035
00:50:55,177 --> 00:50:57,179
I will tell you,
I've never seen anything like it.
1036
00:50:57,179 --> 00:50:59,765
Um, I'm concerned about it deeply.
1037
00:50:59,765 --> 00:51:02,059
I'm calling it the ultimate short squeeze.
1038
00:51:02,059 --> 00:51:04,728
- How much money is being made...
- Holy fucking shit.
1039
00:51:04,728 --> 00:51:07,064
...now we're gonna talk about GameStop.
Those shares...
1040
00:51:07,064 --> 00:51:10,192
- nonstop earning about of 130% today.
- Holy fucking shit!
1041
00:51:10,192 --> 00:51:12,278
As bullish retail traders
frenetically buy shares.
1042
00:51:12,278 --> 00:51:13,195
Holy fucking shit!
1043
00:51:13,195 --> 00:51:14,571
Yo, holy shit!
1044
00:51:15,155 --> 00:51:16,949
- Shit balls.
- Holy shit!
1045
00:51:16,949 --> 00:51:18,659
[woman on TV]
You look at the chart for the month.
1046
00:51:18,659 --> 00:51:21,287
- It's up 220%.
- [Riri] Oh, fuck!
1047
00:51:21,870 --> 00:51:23,580
- Look there... It's crazy.
- Everything okay?
1048
00:51:23,580 --> 00:51:25,332
[Keith] Holy fucking shit!
1049
00:51:25,332 --> 00:51:26,542
Holy fucking shit!
1050
00:51:26,542 --> 00:51:30,212
...if you go short in some of these
elaborate options trades,
1051
00:51:30,212 --> 00:51:32,423
you can lose money to infinity.
1052
00:51:32,423 --> 00:51:36,093
[man on TV] GameStop now at 123
and change, another record high.
1053
00:51:36,093 --> 00:51:37,094
Holy fucking shit!
1054
00:51:37,094 --> 00:51:39,388
[man on TV] Completely disconnected
from the fundamentals.
1055
00:51:39,388 --> 00:51:42,474
And this is very much being driven
by retail investors.
1056
00:51:42,474 --> 00:51:44,268
Many of them trading on Robinhood.
1057
00:51:44,268 --> 00:51:47,146
When the music stops,
somebody is gonna be left without a seat.
1058
00:51:47,146 --> 00:51:48,856
This for casino money only.
1059
00:51:48,856 --> 00:51:50,899
They're literally putting the game
in GameStop.
1060
00:51:50,899 --> 00:51:52,943
...is the craziest I think I've ever seen.
1061
00:51:52,943 --> 00:51:56,780
True investors never heard of Reddit
a few years ago.
1062
00:51:56,780 --> 00:51:58,657
But for that to drive a short squeeze...
1063
00:51:58,657 --> 00:52:00,117
[man on TV] It is Wall Street Bets.
1064
00:52:00,117 --> 00:52:02,870
It's worth going to the site
because it is incredibly compelling.
1065
00:52:02,870 --> 00:52:05,706
You may think it's froth,
but they are using arguments
1066
00:52:05,706 --> 00:52:07,750
that they think hold up under scrutiny.
1067
00:52:07,750 --> 00:52:10,252
- I just like the stock!
- [Harmony] I can't look.
1068
00:52:10,252 --> 00:52:12,463
- I can't look. I can't look.
- It's up another 4%.
1069
00:52:12,463 --> 00:52:14,840
I'm gonna have a fucking heart attack.
Should we sell?
1070
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:16,717
And betray your boyfriend?
Absolutely not. No.
1071
00:52:16,717 --> 00:52:18,719
- [man 1 on TV] The stock is up 581%.
- Maybe.
1072
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,888
...they are being very specific:
1073
00:52:20,888 --> 00:52:22,181
- To break the shorts.
- Yes.
1074
00:52:22,181 --> 00:52:24,308
[man 2] I mean, what's going on
in GameStop right now
1075
00:52:24,308 --> 00:52:26,143
conceivably could take
a couple of firms out.
1076
00:52:26,143 --> 00:52:28,979
Hedge funds if they were
stupid enough to be short.
1077
00:52:28,979 --> 00:52:31,023
Babe, how much did we make today?
1078
00:52:32,483 --> 00:52:33,359
5 million.
1079
00:52:33,942 --> 00:52:35,444
[Caroline] And yesterday?
1080
00:52:35,444 --> 00:52:36,612
4 million.
1081
00:52:39,156 --> 00:52:39,990
Babe...
1082
00:52:40,699 --> 00:52:41,742
Yeah?
1083
00:52:42,701 --> 00:52:45,412
We're, like, really fucking rich.
1084
00:52:45,412 --> 00:52:48,707
[pensive music playing]
1085
00:52:52,086 --> 00:52:53,837
How much did we lose today?
1086
00:52:56,382 --> 00:52:57,257
A billion.
1087
00:52:59,885 --> 00:53:00,803
And yesterday?
1088
00:53:02,429 --> 00:53:03,430
A billion.
1089
00:53:07,476 --> 00:53:08,310
[groans]
1090
00:53:08,310 --> 00:53:11,105
Some news to bring you right now
is that Melvin Capital Management,
1091
00:53:11,105 --> 00:53:15,234
this is the hedge fund
that had shorted this company,
1092
00:53:15,234 --> 00:53:20,906
that had effectively been attacked
by an army of investors trying to push up
1093
00:53:20,906 --> 00:53:23,742
and press up the stock of GameStop.
1094
00:53:23,742 --> 00:53:26,328
They've taken a rather huge loss...
1095
00:53:26,328 --> 00:53:29,248
Sorry, if you could just
put your head up for a sec?
1096
00:53:29,915 --> 00:53:30,833
Thanks.
1097
00:53:31,333 --> 00:53:32,751
How long've you been down here?
1098
00:53:33,252 --> 00:53:34,086
A few months.
1099
00:53:35,546 --> 00:53:36,880
You like the weather?
1100
00:53:39,049 --> 00:53:42,511
Heat is nice. The humidity not as much.
1101
00:53:42,511 --> 00:53:44,346
I can see that. [laughs]
1102
00:53:44,346 --> 00:53:47,933
- Hm.
- All right, I think you're good to go.
1103
00:53:50,018 --> 00:53:53,021
[tense music playing]
1104
00:54:13,625 --> 00:54:15,544
- Hey!
- Hey, man.
1105
00:54:15,544 --> 00:54:17,379
- Hi.
- It's good to connect.
1106
00:54:17,379 --> 00:54:18,589
You too. Great to be here.
1107
00:54:18,589 --> 00:54:19,756
- Excited.
- I'm glad you are.
1108
00:54:19,756 --> 00:54:21,550
Listen, I want to get right to it.
1109
00:54:21,550 --> 00:54:24,428
From what I'm hearing,
you guys are bankrupt.
1110
00:54:26,180 --> 00:54:27,681
No! What? No.
1111
00:54:27,681 --> 00:54:30,767
'Cause the word on the street
is that you're drowning.
1112
00:54:30,767 --> 00:54:33,020
No, that's... That's crazy.
1113
00:54:33,020 --> 00:54:35,522
- We're doing great.
- You're on the record with that?
1114
00:54:36,106 --> 00:54:36,982
Obviously.
1115
00:54:36,982 --> 00:54:40,235
All right, man. Well, then, we're gonna
get the live feed up right now,
1116
00:54:40,235 --> 00:54:42,905
and then we're gonna get to you
right after this next advertising break.
1117
00:54:42,905 --> 00:54:44,740
Perfect, great. Yes, can't wait.
1118
00:54:49,077 --> 00:54:51,079
All right, one more spot
and then you're gonna be up.
1119
00:54:51,079 --> 00:54:54,166
I really do think this is the right time
for you to communicate.
1120
00:54:54,166 --> 00:54:56,251
- Great, yes. Agreed.
- Great. We're gonna do it.
1121
00:54:56,251 --> 00:54:58,754
Address it all head on.
It's gonna be good.
1122
00:55:00,839 --> 00:55:03,008
- No.
- What? Gabe, we're on in 10 seconds.
1123
00:55:03,008 --> 00:55:04,301
I can't do this. I'm sorry.
1124
00:55:04,301 --> 00:55:05,219
Gabe, seriously.
1125
00:55:05,219 --> 00:55:06,970
- Bye, I'm terribly sorry.
- Seriously, c'mon.
1126
00:55:06,970 --> 00:55:09,056
- Good to see you. The pleasure's here.
- We're going on right now.
1127
00:55:15,562 --> 00:55:16,396
[Yaara] Babe,
1128
00:55:17,564 --> 00:55:18,732
what's the damage?
1129
00:55:38,669 --> 00:55:39,670
[exhales]
1130
00:55:39,670 --> 00:55:42,214
[tense music continues]
1131
00:55:45,133 --> 00:55:48,136
- [seagulls cawing]
- [cell phone ringing]
1132
00:55:51,056 --> 00:55:52,349
Let me guess, you need cash.
1133
00:55:52,349 --> 00:55:54,393
Didn't call Ken first, did you?
1134
00:55:54,393 --> 00:55:56,061
He had Phillips reach out.
1135
00:55:56,562 --> 00:55:57,938
How much did he offer?
1136
00:55:59,439 --> 00:56:00,899
I haven't called him back yet.
1137
00:56:00,899 --> 00:56:02,359
Well, how much do you need?
1138
00:56:02,359 --> 00:56:04,778
You know what? Don't answer that.
The number doesn't matter.
1139
00:56:04,778 --> 00:56:06,363
Whatever it is, I'd love to buy in.
1140
00:56:06,363 --> 00:56:08,448
Tell Ken to fill in the rest.
1141
00:56:08,448 --> 00:56:09,658
Prick.
1142
00:56:10,826 --> 00:56:12,327
[cell phone ringing]
1143
00:56:15,706 --> 00:56:16,748
- [Gabe] Hey, Ken.
- Hey.
1144
00:56:16,748 --> 00:56:19,876
Hi, um... So, I might need...
1145
00:56:20,794 --> 00:56:21,712
Uh...
1146
00:56:22,629 --> 00:56:23,630
A new investor.
1147
00:56:23,630 --> 00:56:24,923
Consider it done.
1148
00:56:24,923 --> 00:56:26,925
Just keep moving forward.
1149
00:56:26,925 --> 00:56:29,553
Don't think about
what Grandpa Melvin used to say.
1150
00:56:29,553 --> 00:56:30,887
Prick.
1151
00:56:32,764 --> 00:56:34,725
- Thank you.
- [man on TV] Both Citadel
1152
00:56:34,725 --> 00:56:38,437
- and Point72 have infused
- Poor guy.
1153
00:56:38,437 --> 00:56:41,940
$3 billion into Melvin Capital
1154
00:56:41,940 --> 00:56:44,818
- to try to shore up...
- Another goddamn bailout.
1155
00:56:44,818 --> 00:56:46,528
Can you believe this crap?
1156
00:56:46,528 --> 00:56:47,738
Nobody bailed me out
1157
00:56:47,738 --> 00:56:50,741
when Richard left me alone
with two toddlers, a mortgage,
1158
00:56:50,741 --> 00:56:52,034
a shit car that never works.
1159
00:56:52,034 --> 00:56:53,785
You can say "shit" but we can't?
1160
00:56:53,785 --> 00:56:55,829
[Jenny]
It's just so damn unfair and you know it.
1161
00:56:55,829 --> 00:56:59,833
All we've done for the last year
is work our asses off helping people,
1162
00:56:59,833 --> 00:57:02,544
and all we've gotten is one $600 check.
1163
00:57:02,544 --> 00:57:05,589
This idiot effs up just about as bad
as anyone could eff,
1164
00:57:05,589 --> 00:57:08,634
and his friends come running in
with $3 billion.
1165
00:57:08,634 --> 00:57:10,886
That's why I keep telling you:
you're never gonna win.
1166
00:57:10,886 --> 00:57:13,472
Just take the money and do something nice.
Pay off your mortgage.
1167
00:57:13,472 --> 00:57:15,015
Get that one braces.
1168
00:57:15,599 --> 00:57:17,100
Look who's still holding.
1169
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,562
If he's in, I'm in.
1170
00:57:20,562 --> 00:57:22,522
Yeah, he's still gonna need braces.
1171
00:57:22,522 --> 00:57:23,607
Your teeth are perfect.
1172
00:57:23,607 --> 00:57:26,860
So what? The stock's up $150.
How much higher is it gonna go?
1173
00:57:26,860 --> 00:57:29,154
We control the price now. Not Wall Street.
1174
00:57:29,154 --> 00:57:30,656
And no one on there is selling.
1175
00:57:30,656 --> 00:57:31,698
Shoes.
1176
00:57:31,698 --> 00:57:33,909
- Ugh. You're all so delusional.
- [Jenny] Maybe.
1177
00:57:33,909 --> 00:57:36,328
But look at what we managed to do
with these hedge funds.
1178
00:57:36,328 --> 00:57:37,954
If we keep driving up the price,
1179
00:57:37,954 --> 00:57:41,124
maybe we'll scare more of these guys
into closing out their shorts,
1180
00:57:41,124 --> 00:57:43,210
and then all of that bailout money...
1181
00:57:43,210 --> 00:57:44,628
- [Chris] Wait...
- becomes ours.
1182
00:57:44,628 --> 00:57:45,545
your screen name...
1183
00:57:46,338 --> 00:57:47,881
is Stonkmom?
1184
00:57:52,302 --> 00:57:53,303
- Hey!
- Help your mother.
1185
00:57:53,303 --> 00:57:55,806
- Why me and not Keith?
- Just shut up and do it, okay?
1186
00:57:55,806 --> 00:57:58,016
- Kev, take the potatoes.
- 'Cause you're rich now?
1187
00:57:58,016 --> 00:58:00,102
Mr. 23 million on paper but I won't sell.
1188
00:58:00,102 --> 00:58:02,354
- Kevin.
- Loser says what?
1189
00:58:03,355 --> 00:58:05,816
- What?
- Kevin, let Keith tell them.
1190
00:58:09,027 --> 00:58:09,903
Tell us what?
1191
00:58:11,530 --> 00:58:14,241
Oh, uh...
I was waiting to tell you in person.
1192
00:58:14,241 --> 00:58:17,369
But the, uh, stock we bet on,
GameStop, is up.
1193
00:58:17,369 --> 00:58:18,537
Ah, good.
1194
00:58:19,663 --> 00:58:22,124
- How much up?
- He's up 23 million, Pop.
1195
00:58:22,708 --> 00:58:23,709
[Steve] You're an asshole.
1196
00:58:23,709 --> 00:58:26,253
- Don't kid us.
- Uh, it's real.
1197
00:58:26,253 --> 00:58:28,922
Yeah, it's real.
And he's refusing to sell.
1198
00:58:30,799 --> 00:58:31,842
What is going on?
1199
00:58:32,884 --> 00:58:34,219
- You're pulling our leg.
- No.
1200
00:58:34,219 --> 00:58:36,138
Your son's a huge Internet celebrity now.
1201
00:58:36,138 --> 00:58:38,974
Millions of people including "Stonkmom"
thinks he's some like,
1202
00:58:38,974 --> 00:58:41,143
- I don't know, investment genius.
- No, he is a genius.
1203
00:58:41,143 --> 00:58:42,352
No, he's not.
1204
00:58:42,352 --> 00:58:44,104
You're up 23 million?
1205
00:58:45,105 --> 00:58:46,523
And you're not selling.
1206
00:58:48,150 --> 00:58:49,484
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
1207
00:58:49,484 --> 00:58:50,986
What the fuck is wrong with you?
1208
00:58:50,986 --> 00:58:53,321
Do you even know
how much $23 million is?
1209
00:58:53,321 --> 00:58:55,615
And you're just gonna let it ride?
What's the matter with you?
1210
00:58:55,615 --> 00:58:57,826
- I know what I'm doing, Dad.
- [Elaine] But why aren't you selling?
1211
00:58:57,826 --> 00:58:59,745
What, wait! Is this illegal?
Are you in trouble?
1212
00:58:59,745 --> 00:59:00,912
No. No, he's not in trouble.
1213
00:59:00,912 --> 00:59:01,997
- It's totally legal.
- Yeah.
1214
00:59:01,997 --> 00:59:03,790
He's posting his balance sheet
on the Internet.
1215
00:59:03,790 --> 00:59:04,958
- What?
- [Keith] Hedge fund managers,
1216
00:59:04,958 --> 00:59:07,419
they go on CNBC all the time
to pump up the stock.
1217
00:59:07,419 --> 00:59:09,880
All I do is post my balance sheet
on Wall Street Bets
1218
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,133
- after market close.
- You post your balance sheet?
1219
00:59:13,133 --> 00:59:14,301
Yeah, the same idiot
1220
00:59:14,301 --> 00:59:17,095
who left a fresh pair of Nikes out on
the bleachers for just anyone to take.
1221
00:59:17,095 --> 00:59:18,263
So you admit they were stolen!
1222
00:59:18,263 --> 00:59:19,890
- We gotta talk about this.
- You're a fuckin' moron.
1223
00:59:19,890 --> 00:59:21,349
- Least I won.
- What's the point of winning
1224
00:59:21,349 --> 00:59:22,684
if you let some dipshit steal the prize?
1225
00:59:22,684 --> 00:59:24,227
You would've broke a four
if you had the Zooms.
1226
00:59:24,227 --> 00:59:25,729
A four minute mile
isn't everything, Kevin.
1227
00:59:25,729 --> 00:59:27,606
Maybe we should get in touch
with Briggsy.
1228
00:59:27,606 --> 00:59:29,608
- You know, he works in finance.
- Yes.
1229
00:59:29,608 --> 00:59:31,818
You think Briggsy knows
more about this than Keith does?
1230
00:59:31,818 --> 00:59:33,862
Well, can you talk about why
you're putting your stocks
1231
00:59:33,862 --> 00:59:36,114
- in the Wall Street Journal?
- Wall Street Bets.
1232
00:59:36,114 --> 00:59:37,699
What if someone tries to rob you?
Kidnap the baby?
1233
00:59:37,699 --> 00:59:38,950
No one's gonna kidnap the baby.
1234
00:59:38,950 --> 00:59:40,827
- Nobody wants that baby, Mom.
- [Steve] I'm just saying,
1235
00:59:40,827 --> 00:59:42,120
that if we're gonna talk to somebody,
1236
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:43,830
- you need to talk to Briggsy.
- [Elaine] Yes, honey.
1237
00:59:43,830 --> 00:59:45,415
- This is the point...
- Enough!
1238
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:48,084
You guys, Keith has literally
1239
00:59:48,084 --> 00:59:50,378
poured his heart and his soul
into this for the past year.
1240
00:59:50,378 --> 00:59:51,755
He knows what he's doing.
1241
00:59:57,511 --> 01:00:00,013
I know it's been a tough time, Elaine.
1242
01:00:07,938 --> 01:00:09,022
You should still sell.
1243
01:00:11,441 --> 01:00:12,609
Think you should sell.
1244
01:00:14,736 --> 01:00:16,446
[professor speaking indistinctly]
1245
01:00:16,446 --> 01:00:18,740
And just fuck the principle
of the whole thing?
1246
01:00:18,740 --> 01:00:20,700
I don't like it any more than you do.
1247
01:00:20,700 --> 01:00:22,744
[tense, pensive music playing]
1248
01:00:36,049 --> 01:00:37,509
You really don't think
that he's fucking selling?
1249
01:00:37,509 --> 01:00:38,426
[Harmony] No!
1250
01:00:38,927 --> 01:00:39,761
Ladies.
1251
01:00:41,304 --> 01:00:42,138
Masks.
1252
01:00:45,684 --> 01:00:49,062
Kids are with their father for a few days.
So, I'm going to Florida.
1253
01:00:49,062 --> 01:00:51,815
You finally fucking sold.
Hallefuckin-lujah.
1254
01:00:51,815 --> 01:00:53,942
No, I'm putting it on my Visa.
1255
01:00:53,942 --> 01:00:55,026
You shitting me?
1256
01:00:55,026 --> 01:00:57,195
You're worth hundreds of thousands
of dollars in stock,
1257
01:00:57,195 --> 01:00:58,822
and you're amassing credit card debt.
1258
01:00:58,822 --> 01:01:00,824
You really are out of your mind.
1259
01:01:00,824 --> 01:01:04,828
No, babe, I'm all in. Diamond hand.
1260
01:01:04,828 --> 01:01:06,913
Did you know that Gabe Plotkin
gave an interview?
1261
01:01:06,913 --> 01:01:09,457
He's been getting death threats,
anti-Semitic messages
1262
01:01:09,457 --> 01:01:11,793
- from these WSB guys.
- It was ten comments.
1263
01:01:11,793 --> 01:01:14,713
There's always bad apples.
And the moderators deleted it right away.
1264
01:01:14,713 --> 01:01:16,798
[Chris] You're just gonna ride this thing
till zero?
1265
01:01:16,798 --> 01:01:19,009
No. I'm buying call options.
1266
01:01:19,009 --> 01:01:22,554
- That could go to 600 by tomorrow.
- Your kid is never getting braces.
1267
01:01:30,562 --> 01:01:33,106
[Marcos] There's 8 million people in there
and they're all holding.
1268
01:01:33,106 --> 01:01:34,232
It's only going to go up.
1269
01:01:34,232 --> 01:01:35,775
[in Spanish] It's a joke, Marcos.
1270
01:01:35,775 --> 01:01:37,819
But you're treating it
like it's real life.
1271
01:01:38,695 --> 01:01:39,529
Pops.
1272
01:01:41,740 --> 01:01:42,574
Look.
1273
01:01:43,617 --> 01:01:46,036
- This is real. Hold it. Look.
- [in English] Hey.
1274
01:01:46,036 --> 01:01:46,995
Aw, man.
1275
01:01:48,663 --> 01:01:50,373
8 million people is real.
1276
01:01:50,373 --> 01:01:52,042
[in Spanish] H-O-D-L.
1277
01:01:52,751 --> 01:01:56,212
8 million don't even know
how to spell "hold."
1278
01:01:56,212 --> 01:01:57,130
It's a joke.
1279
01:01:57,130 --> 01:01:59,883
- [woman speaks in Spanish] A corny joke.
- [in English] It's not funny.
1280
01:02:03,678 --> 01:02:04,512
Mom,
1281
01:02:05,847 --> 01:02:06,890
look.
1282
01:02:06,890 --> 01:02:09,517
I got $175,000 in stock right now.
1283
01:02:09,517 --> 01:02:10,685
[in Spanish] What?
1284
01:02:10,685 --> 01:02:11,645
Like serious money,
1285
01:02:11,645 --> 01:02:14,731
like I could get you a house
and get you up out of here, kind of money.
1286
01:02:14,731 --> 01:02:15,899
Baby.
1287
01:02:15,899 --> 01:02:18,318
Where did you get the money to buy this?
1288
01:02:18,318 --> 01:02:19,402
[father] Uh-huh.
1289
01:02:19,402 --> 01:02:22,280
I bought call options, for cheap.
1290
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,367
- And they hit.
- [in English] So now you're gonna sell?
1291
01:02:25,367 --> 01:02:26,785
Nah. No, I buy more.
1292
01:02:27,619 --> 01:02:29,454
[in Spanish] At this price!?
1293
01:02:29,454 --> 01:02:31,498
When they hit,
I'm gonna buy you a mansion.
1294
01:02:31,498 --> 01:02:32,582
It's gonna be crazy.
1295
01:02:32,582 --> 01:02:35,377
My son, I don't need a mansion.
1296
01:02:37,295 --> 01:02:38,672
Papi.
1297
01:02:39,047 --> 01:02:40,215
Be careful.
1298
01:02:40,715 --> 01:02:43,093
Don't get addicted to this, my son.
1299
01:02:43,093 --> 01:02:44,803
This can be like a drug.
1300
01:02:50,850 --> 01:02:55,605
Some breaking news right now
on what has turned into the soap opera
1301
01:02:55,605 --> 01:02:59,943
and, uh, saga of the markets right now.
And that is the story of GameStop.
1302
01:02:59,943 --> 01:03:02,737
A month ago today, it was trading
at about 20 bucks per share.
1303
01:03:02,737 --> 01:03:04,906
Two days ago, it was under $80.
1304
01:03:04,906 --> 01:03:08,326
Today, nearly $350 a share.
1305
01:03:08,326 --> 01:03:12,372
The GameStop stock frenzy even now
has the attention of the White House.
1306
01:03:12,372 --> 01:03:14,791
...our economic team
including Secretary Yellen and others
1307
01:03:14,791 --> 01:03:16,459
are monitoring the situation.
1308
01:03:16,459 --> 01:03:18,878
You're witnessing
the French Revolution of finance.
1309
01:03:18,878 --> 01:03:20,296
There is a rebellion aspect to it.
1310
01:03:20,296 --> 01:03:22,382
There is
an anti-establishment aspect to it.
1311
01:03:22,382 --> 01:03:24,592
I don't know if Wall Street's ever seen it
like this before.
1312
01:03:24,592 --> 01:03:26,177
- No. It's generational.
- We never have.
1313
01:03:26,177 --> 01:03:27,887
It's like generational injustices.
1314
01:03:27,887 --> 01:03:31,349
[man] This is like
little poor guys vs. rich guys.
1315
01:03:31,349 --> 01:03:34,227
- And poor guys are winning right now.
- ["Seven Nation Army" playing]
1316
01:03:34,227 --> 01:03:36,646
[woman] Fucking hold! If you're new here
and you're trying to make a profit,
1317
01:03:36,646 --> 01:03:38,648
- fuck off!
- Stop what you're doing, and listen up.
1318
01:03:38,648 --> 01:03:41,026
I own GameStop on Robinhood
and I am not selling.
1319
01:03:41,026 --> 01:03:44,738
Hold. All you need to do is hold.
Keep fucking holding.
1320
01:03:44,738 --> 01:03:48,450
Soon the Tendieman comes
to send our rocket to the sun.
1321
01:03:48,450 --> 01:03:51,703
See this right here is the human being
who's largely responsible
1322
01:03:51,703 --> 01:03:53,580
for all this GameStop stuff.
1323
01:03:53,580 --> 01:03:59,961
Just a pure specimen.
A God-like undefeatable creature.
1324
01:03:59,961 --> 01:04:03,590
This is what excellence looks like.
1325
01:04:03,590 --> 01:04:04,716
I just like the stock.
1326
01:04:04,716 --> 01:04:08,344
Yesterday he posted this,
that he's in profit, wait for it...
1327
01:04:09,345 --> 01:04:11,890
47 million.

- [man 1] What the fuck is happening?
- [tense music playing]
1329
01:04:15,602 --> 01:04:19,147
- [man 2] What the fuck?
- [students clamoring]
1330
01:04:19,147 --> 01:04:20,690
Hey, did you try a different browser?
1331
01:04:20,690 --> 01:04:22,984
- I plugged the browser.
- [James] Shit, we're fucked.
1332
01:04:24,152 --> 01:04:25,320
Bro, what the fuck?
1333
01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,447
- What the fuck, dude?
- I told you this shit is rigged.
1334
01:04:28,865 --> 01:04:29,991
What the fuck is going on?
1335
01:04:32,535 --> 01:04:33,745
I can't get it to load.

[cell phone chimes]
1337
01:04:40,210 --> 01:04:41,127
Fuck!
1338
01:04:45,423 --> 01:04:46,257
What?
1339
01:04:49,427 --> 01:04:51,221
They shut down Wall Street Bets.
1340
01:04:51,721 --> 01:04:54,724
- What?
-"Hateful and discriminatory content."
1341
01:04:54,724 --> 01:04:56,434
That stuff has always been on there.
1342
01:05:01,940 --> 01:05:03,274
That's weird.
1343
01:05:03,274 --> 01:05:04,275
No?
1344
01:05:05,318 --> 01:05:08,655
I mean, it's like they're trying
to stop people from talking to each other.
1345
01:05:08,655 --> 01:05:09,948
[buzzing]
1346
01:05:15,995 --> 01:05:17,163
Babe, are you gonna get that?
1347
01:05:17,163 --> 01:05:18,081
Yes.
1348
01:05:18,081 --> 01:05:18,998
Oh.
1349
01:05:21,126 --> 01:05:21,960
Hello?
1350
01:05:23,628 --> 01:05:26,589
Ah, yes, I am...
1351
01:05:27,090 --> 01:05:30,343
I am the Roaring Kitty
and Deep F-ing Value.
1352
01:05:32,137 --> 01:05:35,557
Ah, no, but nobody ever asked me.
1353
01:05:37,642 --> 01:05:38,977
Oh, okay.
1354
01:05:38,977 --> 01:05:41,771
Sir, I just want to say
how grateful I am for this job
1355
01:05:41,771 --> 01:05:43,690
and how much it means
to me and my family.
1356
01:05:43,690 --> 01:05:46,109
I would never let a hobby jeopardize...
1357
01:05:47,819 --> 01:05:49,779
Okay. I understand.
1358
01:05:55,743 --> 01:05:58,204
- Yeah?
- It's MassMutual. They're...
1359
01:05:58,204 --> 01:06:01,624
getting calls from reporters "concerned"
about my "outside activities."
1360
01:06:01,624 --> 01:06:03,501
Was all this against the rules?
1361
01:06:03,501 --> 01:06:06,421
I wasn't...? Maybe now it is...
1362
01:06:06,421 --> 01:06:07,338
Okay.
1363
01:06:10,383 --> 01:06:11,926
Well, what was that call?
1364
01:06:13,553 --> 01:06:15,013
- Keith?
- It's okay.
1365
01:06:15,013 --> 01:06:16,222
What, are you going to lose your job?
1366
01:06:16,222 --> 01:06:17,140
- What?
- It's fine.
1367
01:06:18,266 --> 01:06:20,101
- They gave me a choice.
- Between what?
1368
01:06:20,101 --> 01:06:21,895
Between your job and Roaring Kitty?
1369
01:06:21,895 --> 01:06:23,813
- [baby crying over monitor]
- Uh...
1370
01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:26,691
- Resign or I'm fired.
- That's what he just said?
1371
01:06:26,691 --> 01:06:27,984
[crying continues]
1372
01:06:27,984 --> 01:06:28,902
I got it.
1373
01:06:31,196 --> 01:06:32,322
[Harmony]
Fuck it, Wall Street Bets is down,
1374
01:06:32,322 --> 01:06:33,239
I can't see Roaring Kitty's balance sheet.
1375
01:06:33,239 --> 01:06:34,157
Oh fuck.
1376
01:06:34,157 --> 01:06:35,408
I don't know what to do.
1377
01:06:35,909 --> 01:06:36,993
This could be the sell-off.
1378
01:06:36,993 --> 01:06:39,037
I really don't wanna do that.
1379
01:06:39,037 --> 01:06:42,207
Well, me neither.
But you can't let it go to zero.
1380
01:06:43,082 --> 01:06:45,418
It's 150 grand. You need that money.
1381
01:06:45,418 --> 01:06:47,879
And nobody is gonna hold
if they can't see what he's doing.
1382
01:06:50,590 --> 01:06:52,050
Close your eyes and count to three.
1383
01:06:52,759 --> 01:06:53,593
One.
1384
01:06:55,595 --> 01:06:56,512
- Two.
- Two.
1385
01:06:57,722 --> 01:06:58,723
- Three.
- Three.
1386
01:07:02,393 --> 01:07:04,437
- ["Boss" blaring over speakers]
- Your phone's ringing.
1387
01:07:04,437 --> 01:07:06,648
This is the sound of the world.
1388
01:07:06,648 --> 01:07:08,358
Your phone is ringing!
1389
01:07:08,358 --> 01:07:12,487
Oh, Robinhood. Yeah. It's an app.
1390
01:07:13,071 --> 01:07:14,364
It's on the phone.
1391
01:07:14,364 --> 01:07:16,741
- Yeah, no, your phone is ringing.
- Oh.
1392
01:07:17,784 --> 01:07:20,078
Yes...
1393
01:07:20,078 --> 01:07:22,956
♪ I'm a boss in a fucking dress... ♪
1394
01:07:22,956 --> 01:07:24,874
Slow down, Norm, what did you say?
1395
01:07:25,375 --> 01:07:29,796
The NSCC just sent us a file,
they want a deposit of 3 billion
1396
01:07:29,796 --> 01:07:31,506
to clear all the trades coming in.
1397
01:07:32,215 --> 01:07:33,508
Sorry.
1398
01:07:33,508 --> 01:07:34,592
Wait, who?
1399
01:07:34,592 --> 01:07:40,139
They're a subsidiary of the DTCC.
And they're requesting 3 billion.
1400
01:07:40,139 --> 01:07:45,103
Ah... Okay. Sorry, it's a little loud in
here. I thought you just said 3 billion.
1401
01:07:45,603 --> 01:07:46,646
I did!
1402
01:07:47,939 --> 01:07:50,650
- But we don't have 3 billion, Norm.
- That's correct.
1403
01:07:50,650 --> 01:07:53,695
We've only ever raised 2 billion
in the history of the company.
1404
01:07:54,570 --> 01:07:56,531
Holy fuck! What if we don't pay?
1405
01:07:56,531 --> 01:07:57,991
They shut us down.
1406
01:07:58,950 --> 01:08:01,953
The IPO, like, everything... poof.
1407
01:08:01,953 --> 01:08:04,831
Gretchen, Dan and I are going to
jump on a call with Citadel at 9.
1408
01:08:08,668 --> 01:08:11,713
Maybe this would be a good time
for me to chat with Ken Griffin.
1409
01:08:11,713 --> 01:08:14,424
Sure. We'll mention that.
1410
01:08:16,009 --> 01:08:17,302
I can't sleep.
1411
01:08:17,302 --> 01:08:18,344
Me neither.
1412
01:08:18,845 --> 01:08:20,138
I just feel sick!
1413
01:08:21,139 --> 01:08:22,724
We'll buy it back first thing.
1414
01:08:24,559 --> 01:08:25,977
Please shut up.
1415
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:40,283
[tense, pensive music playing]
1416
01:08:40,825 --> 01:08:42,285
What the fuck.
1417
01:08:45,371 --> 01:08:46,497
Oh! What the fuck!
1418
01:08:47,540 --> 01:08:49,625
- What the fuck!
- Okay, let me try.
1419
01:08:50,710 --> 01:08:52,086
Is it frozen?
1420
01:08:57,342 --> 01:08:59,135
They cut off the buy option.
1421
01:08:59,844 --> 01:09:01,387
What?! That's fucking criminal.
1422
01:09:01,387 --> 01:09:02,680
[Vlad] I can't hear you, Baiju!
1423
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:04,057
[Baiju] What the fuck did you do?
1424
01:09:04,057 --> 01:09:05,767
- Calm down.
- Me calm down?
1425
01:09:05,767 --> 01:09:07,352
You shut down trading on GameStop?
1426
01:09:07,352 --> 01:09:08,519
Not all trading.
1427
01:09:08,519 --> 01:09:09,687
Norm worked it out.
1428
01:09:09,687 --> 01:09:13,232
The DTCC agreed to lower the deposit
to 700 million
1429
01:09:13,232 --> 01:09:15,401
if we shut off buying,
and that's what I did.
1430
01:09:15,401 --> 01:09:17,445
- The Depository Trade Commission?
- [blender whirs]
1431
01:09:17,445 --> 01:09:19,697
They're like one degree away
from Ken Griffin.
1432
01:09:19,697 --> 01:09:21,908
- One more time, Baiju.
- [blender whirs]
1433
01:09:21,908 --> 01:09:22,909
...butt boys!
1434
01:09:24,911 --> 01:09:27,038
- What?
- It's not going to be okay.
1435
01:09:27,038 --> 01:09:28,289
You need to fix this...
1436
01:09:28,289 --> 01:09:29,916
Shh. I know, it's okay.
1437
01:09:30,792 --> 01:09:32,210
I did fix it, Baiju.
1438
01:09:34,420 --> 01:09:37,131
We've been watching shares
of GameStop all day long
1439
01:09:37,131 --> 01:09:40,802
after hitting a staggering high of $483.
1440
01:09:40,802 --> 01:09:43,763
The shares are now down to about 140.
1441
01:09:43,763 --> 01:09:46,724
Now, the best we can tell
is the Robinhood app
1442
01:09:46,724 --> 01:09:51,354
that seems to have triggered what really
has become a panic sell-off in this name.
1443
01:09:51,354 --> 01:09:55,983
And so if you're a retail investor
or a Reddit user and you've held,
1444
01:09:55,983 --> 01:09:58,736
well, you are feeling some serious pain
right now.
1445
01:09:59,946 --> 01:10:01,114
Oh God.
1446
01:10:02,573 --> 01:10:03,408
Fuck.
1447
01:10:03,408 --> 01:10:05,368
[man 1 on TV]
Now the criticism centered on Robinhood
1448
01:10:05,368 --> 01:10:09,330
for abandoning their followers here
in favor of helping those who had shorted
1449
01:10:09,330 --> 01:10:10,873
all these stocks in the first place.
1450
01:10:10,873 --> 01:10:13,334
[woman] I don't particularly like the move
on Robinhood today.
1451
01:10:13,334 --> 01:10:15,128
I'm talking to people this morning
that say,
1452
01:10:15,128 --> 01:10:17,004
"Okay, that is anti-capitalism.
1453
01:10:17,004 --> 01:10:18,506
- You can't do that."
- Fuck you, Robinhood!
1454
01:10:18,506 --> 01:10:23,219
[man 2] There's been some controversy
about Citadel and some vague accusations
1455
01:10:23,219 --> 01:10:26,389
that somehow Citadel may have been
involved in Robinhood's decision, Wolf,
1456
01:10:26,389 --> 01:10:29,851
to stop or restrict trading
in GameStop and other shorts...
1457
01:10:29,851 --> 01:10:30,893
[Yaara] Who is it from?
1458
01:10:30,893 --> 01:10:33,688
The Tendieman...?
1459
01:10:35,565 --> 01:10:36,482
Come back inside.
1460
01:10:36,482 --> 01:10:38,025
[man] Diamond fucking hands!
1461
01:10:40,194 --> 01:10:44,365
We all know how I feel about him.
I think he's a rat, a liar.
1462
01:10:44,365 --> 01:10:49,203
Okay, Vlad, you know everybody here
who's watching us hates your guts, right?
1463
01:10:50,204 --> 01:10:53,708
Thank you, Dave, that's, uh...
that's what I hear.
1464
01:10:53,708 --> 01:10:57,628
But I'm a really big fan of your show
and hopefully I can answer
1465
01:10:57,628 --> 01:10:59,755
- some of your questions.
- [man] Vlad, can you hear us?
1466
01:10:59,755 --> 01:11:02,758
- Vlad the stock impaler.
- Yes, I'm here... Hi.
1467
01:11:02,758 --> 01:11:04,886
Spill the beans, man,
what happened last week?
1468
01:11:04,886 --> 01:11:07,680
Why couldn't people buy GameStop shares?
1469
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:09,599
The people demand an answer.
1470
01:11:09,599 --> 01:11:13,144
To give you some background,
I'm chief executive of Robinhood...
1471
01:11:13,144 --> 01:11:14,479
- Robbing executive.
- Yeah, we know that.
1472
01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:16,147
And I just want to say,
1473
01:11:16,147 --> 01:11:18,816
- we had no liquidity problem.
- Well, did something maybe shady
1474
01:11:18,816 --> 01:11:20,651
go down here?
Seems weird that you'd get a sudden
1475
01:11:20,651 --> 01:11:22,778
- 10 billion dollar demand... You know.
- Three, 3 billion...
1476
01:11:22,778 --> 01:11:24,989
- Okay, but 3 billion just suddenly,
- Yeah.
1477
01:11:24,989 --> 01:11:27,074
- out of nowhere and...
- Well, I wouldn't impute
1478
01:11:27,074 --> 01:11:30,203
any shadiness to any of this, um...
1479
01:11:30,203 --> 01:11:32,413
I don't have the full context, uh,
1480
01:11:32,413 --> 01:11:34,916
as to what was going on
with the NSCC to,
1481
01:11:34,916 --> 01:11:37,960
to, uh, make these calculations.
1482
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:40,421
To what degree
are you beholden to Citadel?
1483
01:11:40,421 --> 01:11:43,799
I mean, like, basically,
if Citadel is unhappy, then what happens?
1484
01:11:43,799 --> 01:11:46,761
- [Vlad] It was a hard temperance.
- Is anyone holding you hostage right now?
1485
01:11:46,761 --> 01:11:47,678
Uh, no.
1486
01:11:47,678 --> 01:11:51,557
There's just no rational explanation
on why they would do what they did
1487
01:11:51,557 --> 01:11:54,268
without outside pressure, interference.
1488
01:11:54,268 --> 01:11:56,938
And they basically cratered the stock
on purpose.
1489
01:11:56,938 --> 01:11:59,982
So, I just don't believe
anything that guy says.
1490
01:11:59,982 --> 01:12:02,360
I wanted to take a cold shower
after seeing him say that.
1491
01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:05,029
Robinhood is facing lawsuits,
we know that.
1492
01:12:05,029 --> 01:12:07,406
After halting trade, they are accused
1493
01:12:07,406 --> 01:12:09,575
- of rigging the market.
- When the big guys,
1494
01:12:09,575 --> 01:12:12,828
including one of your main investors
in your company started to lose,
1495
01:12:12,828 --> 01:12:15,498
you shut down the game
to starve the little guy.
1496
01:12:15,498 --> 01:12:18,501
They're stealing from the poor
and giving back to the rich.
1497
01:12:18,501 --> 01:12:21,879
They're robbing from the 'hood! Why?
1498
01:12:21,879 --> 01:12:24,924
- I want to be 100% clear,
- All of you guys deserve to burn in hell.
1499
01:12:24,924 --> 01:12:26,300
- this decision to...
- And go to jail.
1500
01:12:26,300 --> 01:12:27,426
restrict trade was not made
on the direction
1501
01:12:27,426 --> 01:12:28,678
I'm just trying to get my mom
out the 'hood.
1502
01:12:28,678 --> 01:12:31,472
- of Citadel or any market maker.
- What the fuck? Fuck you!
1503
01:12:31,472 --> 01:12:32,890
And your Mama Dukes,
you motherfucking fraud.
1504
01:12:32,890 --> 01:12:33,808
Fuck this guy.
1505
01:12:34,684 --> 01:12:37,186
This guy is just
an obfuscating piece of shit.
1506
01:12:37,186 --> 01:12:38,479
Fucker.
1507
01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:40,815
There's only one man
I wanna hear from right now.
1508
01:12:40,815 --> 01:12:43,442
And Wall Street Bets is down,
so it's crickets.
1509
01:12:43,442 --> 01:12:45,027
It's crickets out here.
1510
01:12:45,903 --> 01:12:47,029
Say it with me.
1511
01:12:47,530 --> 01:12:49,532
- Where my pussy at!
- Where my pussy at!
1512
01:12:50,241 --> 01:12:51,784
- [man 1] Mr. Gill!
- [man 2] Mr. Gill!
1513
01:12:52,577 --> 01:12:56,414
- Roaring Kitty, I fucking love you!
- Keith Gill!
1514
01:12:56,414 --> 01:12:58,165
- Keith Gill, please!
- Okay.
1515
01:12:58,165 --> 01:13:01,294
- Please.
- Oh, sorry, this is, like, my house, uh...
1516
01:13:01,294 --> 01:13:02,878
- You want my autograph?
- Yeah.
1517
01:13:03,796 --> 01:13:04,672
You've been served.
1518
01:13:07,758 --> 01:13:10,595
[man 3]
Hey, to the moon, baby! To the moon.
1519
01:13:10,595 --> 01:13:11,804
Holy shit.
1520
01:13:11,804 --> 01:13:13,681
[crowd clamoring]
1521
01:13:16,726 --> 01:13:20,563
Sorry to interrupt. We need to talk
about the GameStop situation.
1522
01:13:20,563 --> 01:13:21,939
I thought Mecane was handling it.
1523
01:13:21,939 --> 01:13:24,775
So did we. But the committee's
specifically requested you, sir.
1524
01:13:24,775 --> 01:13:26,986
If they want specifics,
they can have Mecane.
1525
01:13:27,695 --> 01:13:29,614
It's not a choice, unfortunately.
1526
01:13:33,826 --> 01:13:35,077
Shitballs.
1527
01:13:35,578 --> 01:13:37,872
[keyboard clacking]
1528
01:13:37,872 --> 01:13:38,831
[Caroline] Keith?
1529
01:13:40,374 --> 01:13:43,461
- A congressional subpoena.
- I never did anything illegal.
1530
01:13:43,461 --> 01:13:44,920
And I always had disclaimers...
1531
01:13:45,588 --> 01:13:47,798
Why would you have disclaimers
if you weren't worried?
1532
01:13:48,341 --> 01:13:50,760
They're standard practice, Caroline,
everyone has them.
1533
01:13:55,765 --> 01:13:56,599
Babe...
1534
01:14:00,144 --> 01:14:02,688
- the answer is not in your computer.
- Whoa!
1535
01:14:03,314 --> 01:14:07,276
There's a dozen reporters on our lawn!
You have to testify before Congress.
1536
01:14:07,943 --> 01:14:10,696
- The game has changed.
- I know. I hear you.
1537
01:14:10,696 --> 01:14:12,114
I don't think you do.
1538
01:14:17,662 --> 01:14:19,080
Oh, my God. We're...
1539
01:14:20,623 --> 01:14:21,957
We're gonna go to my mother's.
1540
01:14:21,957 --> 01:14:24,126
No, she has terrible Wi-Fi.
1541
01:14:24,126 --> 01:14:26,170
I'm not talking about you.
1542
01:14:26,170 --> 01:14:28,047
I'm talking about me and her.
1543
01:14:28,798 --> 01:14:30,341
You need to figure this out.
1544
01:14:43,521 --> 01:14:45,398
- Where are you going?
- To the track.
1545
01:14:45,398 --> 01:14:47,733
- You were just on the track.
- I'm going again.
1546
01:14:47,733 --> 01:14:50,611
[tense music playing]
1547
01:14:58,244 --> 01:15:00,663
Hi. Can I interest you in
some champagne or a mimosa?
1548
01:15:00,663 --> 01:15:02,957
- Is it free?
- It is when you sit up here.
1549
01:15:02,957 --> 01:15:04,959
Well, there is a last time for everything.
1550
01:15:04,959 --> 01:15:06,460
Oh, you'll be back.
1551
01:15:06,460 --> 01:15:10,715
I had half a million in stocks last week,
but Wall Street cheated.
1552
01:15:11,215 --> 01:15:12,383
Surprise, surprise.
1553
01:15:14,176 --> 01:15:15,428
I could have cashed out.
1554
01:15:16,554 --> 01:15:18,347
I could have paid my mortgage.
1555
01:15:18,347 --> 01:15:20,015
Could have gotten my kid braces.
1556
01:15:20,015 --> 01:15:20,933
Got a new car.
1557
01:15:20,933 --> 01:15:22,685
Honey, I'm gonna get you
something stronger.
1558
01:15:22,685 --> 01:15:24,186
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
1559
01:15:30,317 --> 01:15:31,444
[Kevin] Meow!
1560
01:15:31,444 --> 01:15:32,570
Kitty!
1561
01:15:32,570 --> 01:15:35,281
You know you can't just eat other people's
food. They do reviews, right?
1562
01:15:35,281 --> 01:15:36,323
Very funny.
1563
01:15:36,323 --> 01:15:37,241
Here.
1564
01:15:37,825 --> 01:15:39,118
What's this?
1565
01:15:39,118 --> 01:15:40,578
Look, they were on sale, all right,
1566
01:15:40,578 --> 01:15:43,622
- before you get all emotional and shit.
- Holy shit, you fucking softy.
1567
01:15:43,622 --> 01:15:45,833
Who put you up to this? Caro? Ma?
1568
01:15:45,833 --> 01:15:47,626
No, Dad called me in tears,
1569
01:15:47,626 --> 01:15:49,462
said my big brother
needed some moral support.
1570
01:15:49,462 --> 01:15:51,922
Ah, fuck off. I can't.
1571
01:15:51,922 --> 01:15:54,008
C'mon, man.
Will you at least try 'em on? Please?
1572
01:15:54,008 --> 01:15:56,051
Try 'em. C'mon,
you're the richest man in Brockton,
1573
01:15:56,051 --> 01:15:58,637
- you dress like an asshole.
- I lost 15 million yesterday.
1574
01:15:58,637 --> 01:16:00,598
And another 15 the day before that.
1575
01:16:00,598 --> 01:16:02,975
You're still the richest man in Brockton,
like, by far.
1576
01:16:03,642 --> 01:16:07,480
Bro, you got rich dudes
pissing in their pants right now.
1577
01:16:07,480 --> 01:16:10,274
I mean, c'mon, man, how many people
from Brockton High can say that?
1578
01:16:10,274 --> 01:16:11,442
This has gone crazy,
1579
01:16:11,442 --> 01:16:14,278
I got reporters hounding me
outside my house.
1580
01:16:14,278 --> 01:16:16,405
Yeah, man, me too.
They're coming after you.
1581
01:16:17,990 --> 01:16:19,700
You didn't talk to them, did you?
1582
01:16:19,700 --> 01:16:23,037
What do I look like? I said no.
I said give me 50 grand maybe.
1583
01:16:23,037 --> 01:16:24,121
Tell me you're kidding.
1584
01:16:24,121 --> 01:16:26,791
Well, if you give me 20, then maybe
we wouldn't have to deal with this shit.
1585
01:16:26,791 --> 01:16:27,833
The fuck is wrong with you!?
1586
01:16:27,833 --> 01:16:31,253
Kevin, I've just been subpoenaed
by Congress, man.
1587
01:16:31,253 --> 01:16:32,922
I do not have time for your bullshit.
1588
01:16:32,922 --> 01:16:35,466
- Oh, come off it, man!
- Seriously, asshole.
1589
01:16:35,466 --> 01:16:37,426
- Chill! It was a joke!
- Fuck!
1590
01:16:38,511 --> 01:16:39,970
[Keith sighs]
1591
01:16:41,972 --> 01:16:42,807
[groans]
1592
01:16:45,351 --> 01:16:46,185
I know.
1593
01:16:47,019 --> 01:16:47,895
Sorry.
1594
01:16:54,985 --> 01:16:57,154
We never used to fight this much.
1595
01:17:00,074 --> 01:17:02,034
- Sara.
- I miss her.
1596
01:17:02,660 --> 01:17:03,536
Me too.
1597
01:17:04,119 --> 01:17:05,538
She kept your ego in check.
1598
01:17:06,205 --> 01:17:08,374
Whole fuckin' world kept my ego in check.
1599
01:17:09,458 --> 01:17:12,127
What the fuck are you gonna tell
Congress, Keith? Huh?
1600
01:17:13,212 --> 01:17:15,256
Beg them not to send me to prison?
1601
01:17:17,508 --> 01:17:18,342
Hey...
1602
01:17:19,093 --> 01:17:23,222
Hey, do you remember back at Stonehill
when they dared me to run that mile naked?
1603
01:17:23,722 --> 01:17:25,432
Yeah, there was a crazy storm that night.
1604
01:17:25,432 --> 01:17:27,142
- You dumb shit.
- Fuck you, man.
1605
01:17:27,142 --> 01:17:29,562
That was dope, man.
I'm a legend over there.
1606
01:17:29,562 --> 01:17:30,813
Everybody remembers that!
1607
01:17:30,813 --> 01:17:31,939
- Okay.
- They do, man.
1608
01:17:31,939 --> 01:17:33,983
You don't think people remember
your 4-minute 3-second mile?
1609
01:17:33,983 --> 01:17:35,943
Oh... what is this, a pep talk?
1610
01:17:35,943 --> 01:17:37,444
Motherfucker, stop hiding.
1611
01:17:37,444 --> 01:17:40,990
Seriously. Okay, stop being all meek
and shit and running away.
1612
01:17:41,824 --> 01:17:44,368
What, you want me to run through
lightning with my dick out?
1613
01:17:44,368 --> 01:17:45,369
Yeah.
1614
01:17:45,369 --> 01:17:47,538
Please, exactly that.
1615
01:17:48,247 --> 01:17:50,541
Run through lightning with your dick out.
Fuck it.
1616
01:17:52,334 --> 01:17:55,337
[pensive music playing]
1617
01:17:58,757 --> 01:18:00,217
You didn't go to your mom's?
1618
01:18:02,136 --> 01:18:03,345
You took the car.
1619
01:18:05,097 --> 01:18:07,182
How was the run? Did it clear your head?
1620
01:18:07,975 --> 01:18:09,518
Kev found me, brought me these.
1621
01:18:09,518 --> 01:18:12,021
Hm. You guys talked?
1622
01:18:12,521 --> 01:18:15,274
Yup, he, uh, told me to run naked.
1623
01:18:15,774 --> 01:18:17,359
- You ran naked?
- No.
1624
01:18:17,359 --> 01:18:21,530
Uh, it's a metaphor. He's saying
I gotta take this thing head on.
1625
01:18:22,615 --> 01:18:23,449
Well...
1626
01:18:29,038 --> 01:18:30,623
I'd kinda like to see you run naked.
1627
01:18:32,499 --> 01:18:34,251
[sprinkler spraying]
1628
01:18:34,251 --> 01:18:36,921
By the way, Wall Street Bets is back up.
1629
01:18:38,547 --> 01:18:39,924
The motherfucker held.
1630
01:18:40,674 --> 01:18:45,054
Holy shit! He lost 30 million,
and he still fucking held.
1631
01:18:48,432 --> 01:18:50,142
- Robinhood's back up.
- What?
1632
01:18:50,935 --> 01:18:53,354
- We gotta get back in.
- Where's the stock at right now?
1633
01:18:54,104 --> 01:18:55,105
109.
1634
01:18:55,606 --> 01:18:56,649
Are you sure?
1635
01:18:57,149 --> 01:18:59,902
That's like all of the money
that we made back into the stock.
1636
01:19:03,781 --> 01:19:06,283
Yeah. We can't let them
get away with this.
1637
01:19:08,369 --> 01:19:09,203
Fuck 'em.
1638
01:19:09,787 --> 01:19:10,996
If he's in, I'm in.
1639
01:19:11,872 --> 01:19:13,082
If he's in, I'm in.
1640
01:19:16,585 --> 01:19:17,586
Okay.
1641
01:19:19,254 --> 01:19:20,214
Fuck!
1642
01:19:22,383 --> 01:19:25,219
- [Harmony sighs, then laughs]
- [Riri yells]
1643
01:19:26,261 --> 01:19:30,891
The frenzy continues with retail investors
bidding back up GameStop.
1644
01:19:30,891 --> 01:19:33,060
- Meme stock mania is back.
- [woman] ...up more than 80%
1645
01:19:33,060 --> 01:19:35,604
as those message board traders
simply sent it higher.
1646
01:19:35,604 --> 01:19:37,272
[man] Stock volatility continuing,
1647
01:19:37,272 --> 01:19:40,150
it looks like this morning once again
GameStop are involved in
1648
01:19:40,150 --> 01:19:43,570
an ongoing battle between
retail investors and short sellers.
1649
01:19:43,570 --> 01:19:45,114
We're gonna have a lot more
on this story.
1650
01:19:45,114 --> 01:19:48,200
[woman] CEOs of Robinhood, Reddit,
Citadel and Melvin Capital.
1651
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:51,620
Along with Keith Gill,
better known as Roaring Kitty
1652
01:19:51,620 --> 01:19:54,999
on social media, will be in the hot seat.
1653
01:19:54,999 --> 01:19:58,085
[tense music playing]
1654
01:19:59,461 --> 01:20:02,548
[Gabe] I'm here testifying today
far removed from my background.
1655
01:20:02,548 --> 01:20:05,634
I grew up in a middle-class family
in Portland, Maine.
1656
01:20:05,634 --> 01:20:07,302
My dad was a grocery store executive.
1657
01:20:07,302 --> 01:20:08,762
[woman] Maybe leave that part out.
1658
01:20:10,097 --> 01:20:11,181
The part about my dad?
1659
01:20:11,181 --> 01:20:12,307
The executive part.
1660
01:20:12,307 --> 01:20:13,892
Okay... okay.
1661
01:20:17,229 --> 01:20:21,692
I went to a public high school.
I studied hard and got into Northwestern.
1662
01:20:21,692 --> 01:20:23,777
- Just say "a good college."
- Upon...
1663
01:20:23,777 --> 01:20:25,362
I can't say I went to Northwestern?
1664
01:20:25,362 --> 01:20:27,239
- Too elite.
- Northwestern's too...
1665
01:20:27,906 --> 01:20:28,741
All right.
1666
01:20:32,745 --> 01:20:37,332
Upon graduation, I did not have a job.
Today, I'm married with four children.
1667
01:20:37,332 --> 01:20:39,585
Gabe, where do you plan on
doing your testimony?
1668
01:20:41,962 --> 01:20:44,715
- Here.
- In front of your wine collection?
1669
01:20:46,759 --> 01:20:49,928
I mean, this is... I don't have that big
of a wine collection honestly.
1670
01:20:49,928 --> 01:20:50,971
Yeah, it's huge.
1671
01:20:50,971 --> 01:20:52,890
[Keith]
Digital risks seem to be overblown.
1672
01:20:52,890 --> 01:20:55,392
Two, the negative sentiment is overdone.
1673
01:20:55,392 --> 01:20:59,188
- Three, the value...
- Maybe... here would be nice.
1674
01:21:02,483 --> 01:21:04,485
- Too many windows.
- Too many windows... Oh.
1675
01:21:04,485 --> 01:21:05,652
It's very bright.
1676
01:21:05,652 --> 01:21:08,822
- Yeah, ocean front's not a great idea.
- It's blue.
1677
01:21:08,822 --> 01:21:10,574
Yeah. Okay, I hadn't thought of that.
1678
01:21:10,574 --> 01:21:13,494
That, uh, yeah, downstairs there's more...
there's probably darker rooms.
1679
01:21:13,494 --> 01:21:15,662
[woman on TV] What a bandit.
Most of you know this guy,
1680
01:21:15,662 --> 01:21:17,289
who is the Roaring Kitty character,
1681
01:21:17,289 --> 01:21:18,749
- who was really pushing it.
- Holy shit.
1682
01:21:18,749 --> 01:21:20,793
- You know, voicing the information.
- Yo, Riri, our boy's on the news.
1683
01:21:20,793 --> 01:21:22,711
And what's the potentially systemic risk?
1684
01:21:22,711 --> 01:21:25,047
[man]
Those relationships in D.C. are strong.
1685
01:21:25,047 --> 01:21:29,176
The guys who run those hedge funds are
the guys who fund presidential campaigns.
1686
01:21:29,176 --> 01:21:31,136
- You know Roaring Kitties don't have
- That's a good point.
1687
01:21:31,136 --> 01:21:32,554
- that kind of influence,
- Gill is now being sued
1688
01:21:32,554 --> 01:21:33,639
- but the hedge fund managers do.
- for securities fraud
1689
01:21:33,639 --> 01:21:35,974
over his alleged role
in the GameStop rally.
1690
01:21:35,974 --> 01:21:38,852
Is Mr. Gill likely to appear,
and if he appears,
1691
01:21:38,852 --> 01:21:43,023
is he likely to talk
if he faces the potential of prosecution?
1692
01:21:43,023 --> 01:21:48,028
Fundamentals are based on three things:
One, digital risks are overblown.
1693
01:21:48,028 --> 01:21:49,947
Two, the negative sentiment is overdone.
1694
01:21:49,947 --> 01:21:51,156
And three...
1695
01:21:54,868 --> 01:21:55,702
Fuck.
1696
01:21:55,702 --> 01:21:57,913
- Ah, c'mon, shut up.
- [Keith] I know all this.
1697
01:21:57,913 --> 01:21:59,331
[Kevin laughing]
1698
01:21:59,331 --> 01:22:01,834
You guys, you guys, stop.
Stop, let's keep going.
1699
01:22:01,834 --> 01:22:02,960
All right, let's go again.
1700
01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,295
You're right, this is serious.
You can go to jail forever.
1701
01:22:05,295 --> 01:22:06,922
- A long time. Long, long time.
- All right. You ready?
1702
01:22:06,922 --> 01:22:08,882
You ready here we go. Back in the game.
1703
01:22:08,882 --> 01:22:12,052
- Mr. Gill. May I call you Mr. Gill, sir?
- It's my name.
1704
01:22:12,052 --> 01:22:14,555
[Kevin] Why the fuck wouldn't you be able
to call him Mr. Gill?
1705
01:22:14,555 --> 01:22:16,515
What were your intentions
with the YouTube videos
1706
01:22:16,515 --> 01:22:18,142
and your social media posts on GameStop?
1707
01:22:18,142 --> 01:22:19,726
- Yes.
- [Keith] Thank you, congresswoman.
1708
01:22:19,726 --> 01:22:21,228
[Caroline] You're welcome.
1709
01:22:21,228 --> 01:22:23,355
I developed a theory
that the company was undervalued
1710
01:22:23,355 --> 01:22:25,149
despite the significant short interest.
1711
01:22:25,149 --> 01:22:27,151
Oh, so you were aware
of the short interest.
1712
01:22:27,151 --> 01:22:29,736
It is public knowledge.
You can see it in the SEC filings.
1713
01:22:29,736 --> 01:22:32,072
[Briggsy] And your goal
was to break these shorts, yes?
1714
01:22:32,072 --> 01:22:35,701
To rally an online mob to artificially
push the price of GameStop soaring,
1715
01:22:35,701 --> 01:22:38,829
ah, "to the moon" as they say,
isn't that correct, Mr. Gill?
1716
01:22:38,829 --> 01:22:40,789
Objection, objection,
you're leading the witness.
1717
01:22:40,789 --> 01:22:41,874
- Kev...
- [Briggsy] Witness.
1718
01:22:41,874 --> 01:22:43,333
I yield my time to the chair.
1719
01:22:43,333 --> 01:22:45,794
You were hoping for the short squeeze,
weren't you, Mr. Gill?
1720
01:22:45,794 --> 01:22:46,962
You short squeezing bastard.
1721
01:22:46,962 --> 01:22:49,047
The short squeeze
was a marginal point of the thesis.
1722
01:22:49,047 --> 01:22:51,216
[Briggsy] Then why did you talk about it
in your videos all the time?
1723
01:22:51,216 --> 01:22:53,051
You did talk about it in your videos.
You talked about it a lot.
1724
01:22:53,051 --> 01:22:54,595
- You remember about the squeeze.
- Exactly.
1725
01:22:54,595 --> 01:22:55,804
You were like
"It's just a little squeeze."
1726
01:22:55,804 --> 01:22:56,805
[Briggsy] Exactly.
1727
01:22:56,805 --> 01:22:59,349
Are you really asking us to believe
that you weren't a leader
1728
01:22:59,349 --> 01:23:01,560
- to all these retail traders?
- You're fucked, buddy.
1729
01:23:01,560 --> 01:23:03,729
- My point of view...
- Asking. Yes or no?
1730
01:23:03,729 --> 01:23:05,230
- [Kevin] Yes or no?
- [Briggsy] Yes. So yes.
1731
01:23:05,230 --> 01:23:06,440
- Yes or no?
- You are admitting it. Yes.
1732
01:23:06,440 --> 01:23:07,858
Remember you with a cheap bottle
of champagne.
1733
01:23:07,858 --> 01:23:09,067
At any moment... Kevin!
1734
01:23:09,067 --> 01:23:10,110
- Kevin!
- Dunking tendies like a fucking--
1735
01:23:10,110 --> 01:23:11,028
What?
1736
01:23:12,321 --> 01:23:14,698
I'm running with my dick out.
1737
01:23:15,782 --> 01:23:17,159
Okay, why don't you just say that?
1738
01:23:17,159 --> 01:23:18,535
Okay, I'll stop.
1739
01:23:19,328 --> 01:23:24,208
All right. Mr. Gill, what exactly
about the fundamentals
1740
01:23:24,208 --> 01:23:27,502
- led you to build this bull case?
- [Briggsy] What the fuck's with the voice?
1741
01:23:27,502 --> 01:23:29,838
I don't know, I was trying to do AOC,
but it was flat.
1742
01:23:29,838 --> 01:23:31,131
[Briggsy]
I don't even think she's on the panel.
1743
01:23:31,131 --> 01:23:32,341
[Kevin] You shut the fuck up, Briggsy.
1744
01:23:32,341 --> 01:23:33,717
- I'll slap the shit out of you.
- [Briggsy] Is she on that panel?
1745
01:23:33,717 --> 01:23:34,635
- [Kevin] I swear to God.
- [Briggsy] You're gonna slap me?
1746
01:23:34,635 --> 01:23:36,011
- [Kevin] Yeah, let's go.
- [Briggsy] You ready to go?
1747
01:23:36,011 --> 01:23:38,680
- Let's go.
- [Kevin] I've been waiting for this, dog.
1748
01:23:44,061 --> 01:23:47,064
[tense, pensive music playing]
1749
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:51,485
[sighs]
1750
01:23:56,114 --> 01:23:56,949
Come here.
1751
01:24:05,707 --> 01:24:07,668
You're gonna be great.
1752
01:24:08,919 --> 01:24:11,630
If it goes bad, it's gonna be real bad.
1753
01:24:11,630 --> 01:24:13,423
Well, don't let it go bad.
1754
01:24:13,423 --> 01:24:17,678
[Waters] This hearing will be first
in a series of hearings by the committee
1755
01:24:17,678 --> 01:24:22,766
to examine the recent market volatility
involving GameStop.
1756
01:24:22,766 --> 01:24:27,354
I want to know how each
of the witnesses here today
1757
01:24:27,354 --> 01:24:29,523
- contributed to the historic...
- Gabe, can you sit up?
1758
01:24:29,523 --> 01:24:32,693
trading events in January.
1759
01:24:33,235 --> 01:24:35,487
This recent market volatility
1760
01:24:35,487 --> 01:24:40,075
has put a national spotlight
on institutional practices
1761
01:24:40,075 --> 01:24:41,743
by Wall Street firms.
1762
01:24:41,743 --> 01:24:45,414
And they have demonstrated
the enormous potential power
1763
01:24:45,414 --> 01:24:48,125
of social media in our markets.
1764
01:24:48,709 --> 01:24:52,254
We will hear firsthand from the witnesses
regarding these events.
1765
01:24:52,879 --> 01:24:57,050
The hearing will be an opportunity
for this committee to get the facts
1766
01:24:57,050 --> 01:25:00,304
about the role
each of the witnesses represent,
1767
01:25:00,304 --> 01:25:03,932
played in the events
we are examining today.
1768
01:25:03,932 --> 01:25:06,393
[Vargas] Well, now, Mr. Griffin,
if I could ask you this first question.
1769
01:25:06,393 --> 01:25:07,311
Of course.
1770
01:25:07,311 --> 01:25:09,479
How many people
are in the room with you?
1771
01:25:10,355 --> 01:25:11,398
[Ken] That's your question?
1772
01:25:11,398 --> 01:25:13,483
If you can just count how many
people are in the room with you.
1773
01:25:18,113 --> 01:25:21,616
There are five people,
including myself, in this room.
1774
01:25:21,616 --> 01:25:23,285
- [Vargas] Anyone in your organization...
- Such a prick.
1775
01:25:23,285 --> 01:25:25,495
since January 1st, contact Robinhood?
1776
01:25:25,495 --> 01:25:30,334
We of course talk to Robinhood routinely
in the ordinary course of business.
1777
01:25:30,334 --> 01:25:32,669
We manage a substantial portion
of their order flow.
1778
01:25:32,669 --> 01:25:35,047
But did you talk to them about restricting
1779
01:25:35,047 --> 01:25:39,259
or doing anything to prevent people
from buying GameStop?
1780
01:25:39,259 --> 01:25:42,054
I want to be perfectly clear.
1781
01:25:42,054 --> 01:25:45,766
We had no role in Robinhood's decision
1782
01:25:45,766 --> 01:25:48,018
- to limit trading in GameStop.
- Fuck you, Ken Griffin.
1783
01:25:48,018 --> 01:25:51,897
[Vargas] So, if we depose everyone
in your organization, we would find that?
1784
01:25:52,564 --> 01:25:53,482
That is correct.
1785
01:25:53,482 --> 01:25:56,109
Looks like a Disney Channel villain.
1786
01:25:56,109 --> 01:26:00,697
Mr. Plotkin, do you believe
that there is manipulation, distrust,
1787
01:26:00,697 --> 01:26:03,617
and overall inequality
within American finance?
1788
01:26:03,617 --> 01:26:05,786
My focus is on my company, Melvin...
1789
01:26:05,786 --> 01:26:07,454
[inaudible]
1790
01:26:07,454 --> 01:26:08,622
[Kevin] Hello?
1791
01:26:08,622 --> 01:26:10,332
You're on mute, dick!
1792
01:26:10,332 --> 01:26:11,958
Ah, I'm sorry, you're on mute.
1793
01:26:12,459 --> 01:26:13,585
[all laughing]
1794
01:26:16,171 --> 01:26:17,839
[woman] He just keeps going.
1795
01:26:17,839 --> 01:26:19,674
...my area of expertise.
1796
01:26:19,674 --> 01:26:23,428
You're still on mute. I haven't been able
to hear a word you said, unfortunately.
1797
01:26:23,428 --> 01:26:25,806
[Ocasio-Cortez] Mr. Tenev,
would you be willing to commit today
1798
01:26:25,806 --> 01:26:27,974
- to voluntarily pass on the proceeds...
- Oh. Marry me.
1799
01:26:27,974 --> 01:26:30,769
of the payment for order flow
to Robinhood customers?
1800
01:26:30,769 --> 01:26:33,313
Congresswoman, I appreciate that question.
1801
01:26:33,313 --> 01:26:37,526
When the statement you refer to was made,
it was before Robinhood forced
1802
01:26:37,526 --> 01:26:39,528
the entire industry to drop
1803
01:26:39,528 --> 01:26:41,238
- commissions and replicate our...
- I should take that as a no.
1804
01:26:41,238 --> 01:26:44,074
You're not willing to pass on
the proceeds of payment for order flow
1805
01:26:44,074 --> 01:26:45,033
to your customers?
1806
01:26:45,033 --> 01:26:47,744
- When the other brokers drop...
- I'm just talking about today.
1807
01:26:47,744 --> 01:26:48,954
- Asshole.
- I don't want to be rude.
1808
01:26:48,954 --> 01:26:50,330
I just have limited time,
1809
01:26:50,330 --> 01:26:54,334
but if removing the revenues that you make
from a payment for order flow
1810
01:26:54,334 --> 01:26:57,838
would cause the removal
of free commissions,
1811
01:26:57,838 --> 01:26:59,631
doesn't that mean that
trading on Robinhood
1812
01:26:59,631 --> 01:27:01,591
isn't actually free to begin with?
1813
01:27:01,591 --> 01:27:02,968
[woman] Good question.
1814
01:27:09,599 --> 01:27:11,852
[Waters] Thank you very much, Mr. Gill.
1815
01:27:11,852 --> 01:27:16,481
You are now recognized for five minutes
to present your oral testimony.
1816
01:27:18,483 --> 01:27:20,735
[inhales, then exhales]
1817
01:27:28,410 --> 01:27:30,871
Thank you, members of the committee.
1818
01:27:33,415 --> 01:27:36,710
I am happy to discuss my purchase
of GameStop shares
1819
01:27:37,294 --> 01:27:40,672
and my discussions of their fair value
on social media.
1820
01:27:41,506 --> 01:27:43,133
But before I do that,
1821
01:27:43,133 --> 01:27:45,051
a few things I am not:
1822
01:27:46,845 --> 01:27:48,054
I am not a cat.
1823
01:27:49,598 --> 01:27:51,850
- What did he say?
- [Kevin] He just said cat, Ma.
1824
01:27:51,850 --> 01:27:53,143
It's like a kitty thing.
1825
01:27:53,143 --> 01:27:55,562
Nor am I a hedge fund.
I do not have clients,
1826
01:27:55,562 --> 01:28:00,901
and I do not provide personalized
investment advice for fees or commissions.
1827
01:28:00,901 --> 01:28:02,986
I grew up in Brockton, Mass.
1828
01:28:03,737 --> 01:28:05,614
My family was not wealthy.
1829
01:28:05,614 --> 01:28:08,950
My father was a truck driver
and my mom a registered nurse.
1830
01:28:08,950 --> 01:28:11,161
- [Kevin] That's you, Ma!
- I was one of three kids
1831
01:28:11,161 --> 01:28:14,247
and the first in my family
to earn a four-year college degree
1832
01:28:14,247 --> 01:28:18,418
when I graduated from Stonehill College
in 2009.
1833
01:28:18,418 --> 01:28:20,545
That was not a good time
to be looking for a job.
1834
01:28:20,545 --> 01:28:23,048
From 2010-2017,
1835
01:28:23,048 --> 01:28:26,510
there were significant periods
when I was unemployed.
1836
01:28:26,510 --> 01:28:28,887
I took an interest in the stock market,
1837
01:28:28,887 --> 01:28:31,181
and even though I had very little money,
1838
01:28:31,181 --> 01:28:35,393
I used those times to educate myself
and learn more about investing.
1839
01:28:35,393 --> 01:28:39,356
Mr. Gill, I find it hard to believe
that you predicted everything
1840
01:28:39,356 --> 01:28:43,026
that happened to GameStop
with no inside information.
1841
01:28:43,026 --> 01:28:44,778
Uh, I didn't predict it.
1842
01:28:44,778 --> 01:28:48,156
I honestly couldn't explain everything
that happened in January.
1843
01:28:48,156 --> 01:28:51,993
I've seen your videos. You honestly
couldn't recount to the committee
1844
01:28:51,993 --> 01:28:56,581
what caused every single up and down
of the stock in January?
1845
01:28:57,165 --> 01:28:58,291
I think you could.
1846
01:28:59,626 --> 01:29:03,004
I did follow the stock, uh, very closely,
1847
01:29:03,004 --> 01:29:06,633
but threshold lists, order flows,
halting purchases, according to the press,
1848
01:29:06,633 --> 01:29:08,593
these all had a material impact
on the stock.
1849
01:29:08,593 --> 01:29:11,263
Here's the thing: I have
a bit of experience with this stuff,
1850
01:29:11,263 --> 01:29:13,265
and even I barely understand
these matters.
1851
01:29:13,265 --> 01:29:17,143
It's alarming how little we all know
about the inner workings of the market.
1852
01:29:17,143 --> 01:29:19,854
Which is why I'm glad this committee
is examining what happened,
1853
01:29:19,854 --> 01:29:22,649
particularly with the exorbitant
short interest
1854
01:29:22,649 --> 01:29:25,610
as well as any potentially
manipulative shorting practices
1855
01:29:25,610 --> 01:29:29,781
and brokers' reported failures to
timely deliver shares and settle trades.

A lot of people feel the system is broken.
1858
01:29:35,287 --> 01:29:39,374
The whole idea of the stock market is to
be, like, kind of a fair playing field,
1859
01:29:39,374 --> 01:29:43,295
where if you're smart, maybe with a little
luck, you could make your fortune.
1860
01:29:44,087 --> 01:29:46,423
But, if it ever was that,
it's certainly not any more.
1861
01:29:47,507 --> 01:29:50,844
The big firms have such a big advantage,
in terms of technology and information
1862
01:29:50,844 --> 01:29:54,180
and just sheer wealth, there's no hope
for the little guy anymore.
1863
01:29:54,931 --> 01:29:56,808
Or there was no hope.
1864

Maybe now, there is.
1865
01:30:01,771 --> 01:30:03,231

1866
01:30:03,940 --> 01:30:05,108

to the market and actually affect it.

around the edges.
