Think of the finance industry as an ocean
Think of the finance industry as an ocean.
You have all these different functions and types of markets that many people follow, kinda like all the fish and ecosystems in the sea.
Mortgages, corporate credit, the stock market, the crypto market, the commodities market, etc..
But to allow all those markets to exist and transact, they go through banks.
Banks are the top dogs. The Great Whites of the ocean.
Them and the biggest funds in the world.
They set the agenda.
They determine if you succeed or not.
Historically a ton of white men made decisions on behalf of themselves and their kin.
Now that’s changing, but has it really changed the power structure?
No.
Not yet.
Most of the old folks in America control the system.
They’re the ones who have benefited immensely for the last 40 years of increasing credit, decreasing interest rates, relative peace and the globalization of the world.
But now things are breaking.
Inflation is here.
How?
The central banks gave the go-ahead to the banks to make it cheaper to lend money while also injecting trillions of dollars into the economy through buying bonds.
When you cut your interest rate to less than 1%, why wouldn’t you take out a ton of money to buy assets?
Especially if you’re rich.
You can leverage yourself even higher.
The central banks knowingly injected trillions into the economy, which they had to at the beginning of COVID, and it substantially benefitted the elite class vs. everyone else.
While people were dying of Covid and entire industries and countries’ economies blew up in 2020, the rich saw their wealth increase by billions daily.
Everyone else watched and stood by.
Remember when 3 billionaires with penis space ships jetted off to show the world that William Shatner could float in space?
People bought pictures of rocks for 1.3 million dollars.
A digital photo sold for 69 million dollars.
Throwing your money into whatever asset class you wanted.
How did you do it?
You levered up. You took out loans at low rates to invest in anything and everything.
But you got caught.
You over-stretched yourself, especially hedge funds.
They made a bad bet.
And now they’re going to pay.
The Internet found the hack in the matrix.
The infinite money hack - naked shorting and unlimited FTDs.
Synthetic shares and how you create value out of nothing.
You play companies around however you want and cellar box them out of existence whenever it suits you.
If you decide to go short as a short hedge fund while your other company is a Wall Street market maker that handles most of the retail flow across the US markets, you deserve to lose.
You fucked up.
The difference is it wasn’t just you.
It was also the smaller guys, the Melvin Capitals of the world.
And they got caught.
The market could’ve exploded in January 2021 because of the infinite risk these Wall Street funds have taken.
Thomas Petterfry, the billionaire chairman of Interactive Brokers, one of the largest brokerage firms in the world, told CNBC this.
Markets around the world would’ve broken.
So what did these hedge funds do?
They continuted shorting it.
Their greed and historical bias told them that there was no way retail could figure out their game.
It’s never happened before so why could it happen now?
Remember, the future doesn’t always look like the past.
Retail learned through social media, which has never existed in previous market downturns, how Wall Street really works.
How the biggest hedge funds and market makers at the top control the entire market.
It’s literally like Succession.
That episode in season 3 where they’re all sitting there voicing their opinion on who the president is going to be.
That’s how the world really works.
The richest of the rich decide how to use their money to influence elections and the direction of the world.
Some of those people are Wall Street hedge fund guys who manage these people’s money.
With Gamestop, they’re about to get caught.
If you still don’t believe me, read this fantastic write-up about where we are
The weaponized autism of Reddit is unbelievable.
A community of people who want to stick it to the man.
Stick it to the Wall Street fucks who have screwed them and their families for decades.
The sharks are about to be destroyed by millions of little fish who learned about the market through social media and now will re-distribute money in a way that’s never happened.
This can’t happen right?
None of this can come true right?
Probably not.
But what if?
What if the sharks really are about to be killed out of the ocean by a video game retailer and millions of people around the world who want to see a change in how the world operates?
People around the world have registered their shares on Computershare in a way that’s never been done.
People with ComputerShare accounts won’t sell literally until Gamestop hits the thousands.
They may never sell.
The process to sell out of ComputerShare, aka the Infinity Pool, is way too long for people to sell.
The world is about to be turned on it’s head.
Hope you’re ready for a rocky ocean because the sharks are being hunted.
The fish are coming.
