The channel that spent almost a year pumping up FTX and telling me how it was the best thing on the planet lol

[dennismorris]

Excellent discussion, measured and judicious.

[Mostly_bad]

How is this different than what this channel does for NVDA every day? It’s less bad.

[christianromero]

Stock manipulation, your whole network is complicit in stock manipulation..lol

[guillermomuniz]

Free Market. If people are able to sport bet on fanduel platform, people should be able to gamble on meme stocks.

[jackwebster]

Interviewer did a horrible job here. Rude.

[Hakka佬]

lol they’re blaming kitty for market manipulation? Hahaha they need to cover

[bakhteria]

Aren't all these shows like this one design to manipulate? and aren't "power outage" and "unable to execute" passive control? How about you go after short sellers instead?

[Kevin-ocjb]

Manipulation? When a hedge fund discloses what they buy it's often required, when a retail trader does, it's manipulation? By the way, what do you think Citadel does on a daily basis? They are the biggest manipulators/inside traders on the planet. Why do you think they pay for retail order flow? Out of the goodness of their hearts?

If stocks weren't over shorted this wouldnt matter much would it? But instead it's headline news now when big money starts losing, but not headline news when stocks are over shorted and not allowed real price discovery !

He’s trying to answer the question my dude shut up

[investaimobiliare]

We know the end : they took the buy button left only the sell and still the stock keep standing .. no institution payed for this and probably the shorts at the same as three years ago .. you are crying now ? This is just the beginning

[aeonrexAD]

these clows don't want anyone but them to have control and make money

[LumenMichaelOne]

ANDY!!! ... ✊

Yeeeah - 👁'm still not a Fan ... 😐 ... but Progress has been Made ... on this Day ... 👏👏👏

People who lose money should sue Roaring kitty. He walked away with millions last time and many people had to file for bankruptcy after these stocks drop

[venture.brothers]

Retail is buying to create a short squeeze. They know that they're doing.

And geez sorkin not even listening just trying to monologue, why even have a guest on

[InVirginia]

We are talking about your feelings now, sad.

[JackBeNimble-fbfn]

Organized 'mob' activity of speculators to artificially move a stock is illegal, the market jumps in out of speculative greed, not to value invest. Roaring Kitty should be prosecuted to end this nonsense.

[kyungshim]

Clearly Andrew doesn't have the patience for bs.

[AssistantToTheHNIC]

This dude is a total lap dog, lets ignore the obvious manipulation of halts (used far more frequently to stop momentum) and the complete stoppage of trading the last time, icing out positions completely because the little guy was actually slaying the giant .. so mid game the rules were changed
