Though I am a strong believer of internuts, I sold half of my holding and reduced the use of margin to a minimal. The rapid increase of flagship stock price has greatly increase the purchasing powder of retail investors and enable them to borrow even more to make easy money from internuts. I guess this self-propelling effect greatly increases the liquidity of this market and may last for a while, ranging from a few hours to a few weeks.

I am just curious. Does anyone have any data regarding the percentage of retail investor using margin and the average size of the margin? Thanks.
