I am sympathetic to the RobinHooder insurrection against the WS professionals, even as I believe all RobinHooders should be re-educated big-time and reduced to Cloud-ATM machines just as the WS mobs are.

We know the RobinHooders are just having fun playing a computer game in between Netflix sessions interspersed with social-distance sex-texting (I doubt they are social-distancing at all, but give them the benefit of doubt), I do wonder what the total outstanding open short position be for the entire market, and how many careers on the line. We might be just a few margin calls away from the mother of all vortices.

What the insurrection Hooders are doing is guerrilla warfare, classic style, marshaling and concentrating forces on carefully chosen enemy positions and let go of the mother of all attacks, just for laughs and loot, with active fund managers wondering which of their short positions are going to be tee-ed up next resulting in a bad morning, day, week, weeks, and months, until capitulation.

Awesome.

The tactic has much merit.

The resulting chaos releases energy, surfaces opportunities, and flushes out interesting mathematical puzzles in the form of games.

Shall tap into the Reddit information stream this day. Sort of like using LinkedIn as a dating service. Not designed for but perfect for the task not designed for.

Like the music video you posted a lot ... simple lyric and powerful message



Wonderful spirit. Good for the next generation.

Best Wall Street professional appreciate that they need to fear millennial people-power

Re this trade Message 33165310 , i am trying to stay awake until 10:30pm until US option market opens, and roll the February 5th expiration short call to hopefully a much higher ledge / call-strike of either February 12 or 19 expiration, draw out more cash to join the capital i already recovered, and sit back and watch if both the long and short call options expire worthless or just the short call expire worthless.

As I post ... the shorts must be terrified as they look into the abyss, money vaporized, careers scorched, and margin calls coming in, as does the grim reaper of speculation.

The sentiment expressed in your posted video, even as not remotely related, reminds me of another song, the Song of Guerrilla War, a Chinese song dating back to the 1930s en.wikipedia.org



We are all sharpshooters,
Each bullet takes out an enemy.
We are all soldiers with wings,
Unafraid of tall mountains and deep waters.

In the dense forests,
Our comrades set their camps.
On the tall mountains,
Our countless brothers are there.

Nothing to eat, nothing to wear?
The enemy will supply us.
No guns, no cannons?
The enemy will forge them for us.

We are born in this place
Every inch of the land belongs to us.
Should anyone invade it,
We will fight him to death.

Though the Japanese bandits are vicious,
Our brothers fight bravely.
Though enemy's weapons are powerful,
They cannot find our trace and shadow.

Let the enemy rush around without aim,
Our battlefront is behind the enemy.
When the enemy line lengthens,
Our columns expands even greater.

No matter poor or rich,
400 million people become armed.
No matter which party,
We all join the resistance,

We become stronger in the struggle,
Japanese bandits are going towards doom.
When the final victory day comes,
The dawn of world peace will come out.
