    Episode 11: WallStreetBets vs. Robinhood et al.

    WallStreetBets driving up prices of Gamestop, AMC, BlackBerry, Nokia, and more, intentionally targeting some of these stocks due to outspoken short-selling firms. Robinhood (and some other brokerages) have come under fire for restricting trades (or outright closing some of their user's positions, allegedly) and potentially even conspiring with hedge funds such as Citadel to allow for damage control at the expense of the retail trader. We're beginning to see class action lawsuits against Robinhood, members of Congress demanding a DOJ investigation,  and billionaires stating that this situation is "dangerous for the markets".  Many Robinhood traders & the WallStreetBets folks are saying they will close out their Robinhood accounts and #DeleteRobinhood is now trending.  *Note that I should have said 76% of users say they will stop using Robinhood (I mistakenly said 76 people... sorry I'm tired lol) and it looks like hedge funds have lost roughly $5 billion,  not $70 billion  (I was thinking of Twitter & Facebook losing $70 billion in market cap after they shut down conservative accounts... separate topic) - that's still $5 million millions,  so $5B is nothing to sneeze at!  DISCLAIMER: As always, nothing on the podcast or channel should be construed as financial advise, always do your own research and never invest unless you can afford to lose it all.

    Episode 8: Market Insanity

    We are witnessing the biggest "reshuffling" of the DOW in almost 10 years: Being Added:   ⦁ Salesforce (software/tech) ⦁ Amgen (biotech) ⦁ Honeywell (conglomerate that makes all sorts of products, you've probably seen them in retail stores like Target, WalMart, BestBuy) Being removed from the DOW:  ⦁ Pfizer (pharmaceuticals) ⦁ Raytheon (military/industrial - US defense contractor) ⦁ Exxon (oil & energy)  This is likely an indication that US commodity companies are in decline,  software & healthcare continue to gain some steam, at least in the eyes of investors Also interesting to note that the DOW has trailed the other major indexes (S & P 500 and NASDAQ), but this "reshuffling" might allow it to catch up if these trends are to continue Apple Market Cap $2 Trillion: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/19/technology/apple-2-trillion.html Back in September, Apple's market cap was $1 trillion (has now doubled in size) Stock market reaching all time highs (S & P 500 & NASDAQ): https://www.marketwatch.com/story/stock-index-futures-mostly-higher-dow-on-track-to-erase-2020-loss-2020-08-28 July's "official" unemployment data says unemployment rate is at 10.2% https://www.statista.com/statistics/273909/seasonally-adjusted-monthly-unemployment-rate-in-the-us/
