Shares of GME, which were briefly halted for volatility, pared gains to about 20%. AMC finished the day up roughly 10%.

So is my understanding correct that only institutional investors are allowed to benefit from making outrageous public claims about the health of companies regardless of the claims basis in reality?

I don’t think they have any legal basis just because he put a screenshot of his account, twice, plus an Uno card. That is it… that is outrageous if they censor him for that. Extremely unfair to retail traders.

Anyway, in the morning, I and several others started seeing trend headline article for the day appear as:

"couldn't be verified"

I referenced a bit about it here: https://old.reddit.com/r/PROGME/comments/1d72zp0/bloomberg_u...

but then later E*trade Morgan Stanley headlines took over. I commented a bunch of links to lots of posts that I saw first on r/Superstonk regarding things mentioned here: https://old.reddit.com/r/PROGME/comments/1d7fmia/etrade_cons...
