You're right about the housing bubble. I should have used the word preceded rather than precipitated.

I did see the illegal shorting first hand though. I got sick of tech stocks after the bubble and went to a REIT. It got hit by predators with naked shorting. Was constantly on the Reg SHO list - too many short sales not being settled - more stocks than the real float actually circulating. I tried to get my stocks out of a margin account so they couldn't be borrowed, as did many others, but in the end I saw they were going to wait it out and never cover and be allowed to do it. But heck, I still get my $3000 loss credit every year!

I love Elon Musk's latest twitter responses. He's had it with these Communists running our country.

I hope he doesn't hit the trifecta of unwokeness. That sounds bad. You might be on a FBI list by now. Charles Martel, aka Thehammer - be on the lookout. Rides a horse, er bike, and wears armor, er a bike helmet.

Do you remember what the trifecta of unwokeness might have been?
Some of the poster's here have received temporary (and permanent bans). One of my posts was flagged by Google and removed because according to the powers that be, I hit the trifecta of unwokeness.

Hpwever, I think SI does try to stay as "hands off as possible but there is considerable outside influence.
Hmmm....
