Ep80 - Reddit Investors Surge AMC & GameStop Stocks feat A.I. The Anomaly
In 2019, GameStop seemed to be just another failing brick-and-mortar business. The video game retail industry was shifting away from physical copies, and larger companies like Amazon and Walmart were capturing more and more console sales. Hedge funds, smelling blood in the water, decided to profit off GameStop's decline, shorting its stock in massive numbers.
But a couple of internet dwellers at Wall Street Bets, in a strange corner of the giant forum, reddit, thought the hedge funds were making a mistake. They thought the stock was being overshorted, and if that stock were to start going up, those short sellers could be in for a bad time.
Today on the show: how a standoff between big market movers and an irreverent community of anonymous traders erupted into an epic showdown that is changing the way people think about power on Wall Street.
Aitina Fareed-Cooke, "A.I. The Anomaly", is an award winning entrepreneur, speaker, musician, and teaching artist from Buffalo NY.
That’s NOT Christian is a podcast by four urban believers who discuss current events and push the envelope on traditional religious subjects with a touch of humor.
