#1 = no profit/loss realized until the stock is sold (no fear)
#2 = founders/investors/CEO stock options = big $$$
#3 = expense accounts/hiring family & friends/ad buys = indirect payments
#4 = US AID/gov contract/bailouts/local deals = $$$ (Amazon HQ bid)
#5 = Worst case = Eat losses & use as tax write-offs
GAME STOP exposed the illusion:
- Diamond Hands (DH) = united & took FEAR out of the equation (good lesson)
- "Just like this stock, never selling, not an advisor-research yourself"
- What effects a stock price up or down = difference in Total Buyers & Sellers
- If everyone buys & no one sells = price to the moon (even for a dead company)
- Once DH identify short & trapped exposure, system forced to block trades or die
- Billions invested by outside investors to stabilize shorts sellers (temporarily?)
- Free Trading apps = tool to capture, track & predict action of small traders
(eg. push boycott of xxx company ran this week -> track % of stocks sold)
(eg. guru goes on TV to promote new product -> track % of stocks bought)
WALL STREET/BUSINESS NEWS
tool to promote narrative to keep "short sell game" hidden
tool to create celebrity influencers & financial gurus
tool to control fear & emotion of investors outside of the loop
tool to hype, promote & inflate value via demand & market expectations
DOES IT WORK LIKE THIS?
- With a better understanding of codes, symbols & double meanings
- A casual post/article about "saving elephants in Kenya" could be a signal
- Insiders see & know to initiate big individual sale-offs = starting the price drop
- MSM pushes reasons for drop (unexpected problems, market uncertainty, oil, FED)
- Public reacts = hold or panic sell, which pushes prices down further
- Short sellers buy at the dip (to fulfill their short obligations) = $$$
- Things settle down = start positive PR push = stocks begin climb back up
- Rinse and repeat
WHO HAS THE GOLD NOW?
