dont think this can work here in msia.. retailers will be up against investment banks and institutional funds like EPF..

EPF lose billions = rakyat themselves lose billions, u slap them 100% u get 50% back..

plus, asians are more selfish and kiasi, everyone will be u tank i support in the end no one tanks..
yup true, some people just think that wah spike = buy, dangerous mindset

They are not gambling with their own money. Do you think they will learn any lesson? 

they will have to answer to those ppl who put their money into those funds, at least now it show to these greedy fund investors that shorting beyond their capacity (short 140% of the shares available) is very dangerous and can make them bankrap lol

this is also the main problem with these centralized markets, those elites can do whatever they want and earn as much as they can from the peasants, and regulators will say its perfectly legal lol
then now lose money ledi say its illegal and shutdown those reddit pages, discord etc hahahha

Their investors want high profit margin so it's not like they are discouraged from making big gambles. Hedge fund managers that get fired will only be replaced by another hedge fund manager that will do the same thing. Even if the hedge fund bankrupt, other hedge fund will continue doing the same thing. Unless you literally ban all high risk investment, nothing will change.

another level of troll. I hope those pushed the price at least got to exit before other bigshot dump 99

Don't know about the Malaysian market and if shorting at such extreme is common but if so it can be done.

Just so everyone remembers, 1997 was caused by these fucks who manipulated and shorted asian currencies including our MYR which eventually led to a whole big collapse. They did it again to gamestop and they got fucking greedy and tried to short it to 0 so they don't have to pay back the cost.

Now we wait to see who's left holding the bag at the end.

Wall street elite investors wanna fuck up GameStop for shits and profit.

Reddit gamers caught wind of it and fucks up wall street investors at their own game

Said investors are going bankrupt in just two days thanks to gamers messing with stock market

Now rich elites are crying "MUH ECONOMY, MY MILLIONS! ".

they will have to answer to those ppl who put their money into those funds, at least now it show to these greedy fund investors that shorting beyond their capacity (short 140% of the shares available) is very dangerous and can make them bankrap lol

if those investors who pour money into those funds still wan to do such big gambles in future after this GME incident , then i have nothing to say , its literally similar to gambling

but after this we will see much lesser shorting or those funds short beyond their capacity, in future if any fund dare to short >100% of the shares available, then its time for another wallstreetbets

The story chronicles the work of hedge fund manager Michael Burry (portrayed by Christian Bale), who recognizes that the U.S. housing market of the early 21st century is virtually an asset bubble inflated by high-risk loans. In 2005, Burry – the manager of Scion Capital — creates a credit default swap that would allow him to short the housing market. However, his clients grow angry. When banks and creditors argue that housing is stable, and the market in fact does keep on surging, his clients grow angry and fearful as Burry continues his short plays. When they demand their money back, he places a moratorium on withdrawals.

Burry, meanwhile, ends up producing nearly 500% returns for investors who stay with him through the duration of the housing market's collapse.
