00:09:57I'm not crazy, babe. You literally know more about this damn company than you know about me
00:10:01That's true. I mean I know more about this company than I know about myself
00:10:07We can't afford to miss something
00:10:10It's all our savings
00:10:13Go do a video. I
00:10:15Can finish these first?
00:10:18See what the nerds have Wall Street bets people aren't nerds Caroline. They're gangsters. You make a dumb case and post it
00:10:25They'll rip you apart. Don't make a dumb case
00:10:37Oh
00:10:56Shit
00:11:07You
00:11:09You
00:11:11You
00:11:35Yo, what up everybody roaring kitty here
00:11:38I've done a few of these now mostly on my investing methodology. But today I'm gonna try something a little different
00:11:44Well, I appreciate the feedback. You guys have been leaving me by the way
00:11:49What feedback coming in hot less cats, okay
00:11:54great
00:11:56Like I was saying
00:11:57What was I saying? I'm gonna try. Oh and here's one from balls nerd and
00:12:03Nerd is in all capitals
00:12:06Okay, that's kind of mean but okay fair
00:12:10Nice shirt grandpa. What how old do you think I am?
00:12:16You know what? Thanks for the comments. We're gonna come back to him at the end. Here's what I want to talk about
00:12:22I'm gonna pick a stock and talk about why I think it's interesting and that stock is
00:12:28Game stop. I
00:12:31Know it's a polarizing stock and some of you pregnant a tomb out of stream right now when you're on bullish on GameStop
00:12:36But I am you can see it is now the biggest position by far in the roaring kitty portfolio
00:12:42So yeah, I think everyone else is crazy and I think I'm right, but I've been wrong plenty of times in the past. Oh
00:12:50So there are a lot of aspects to this both these there's a lot of moving parts
00:12:54But I boil it down to what I consider the three overs
00:12:56The digital risks seem to me to be overblown the negative sentiment is overdone
00:13:00You can see it with the huge short interest and the value is overlooked Wall Street just doesn't see it
00:13:06Why?
00:13:08Mr. Market
00:13:10Why?
00:13:11The hedge funds are overlooking the value in the company just like they overlook the people who shop there
00:13:17They assume most people download games online now
00:13:20But look 25% of gamers still buy new discs from GameStop and
00:13:2540% buy used games from the store and the markets kind of forced my hand here. What more can I say?
00:13:30I just like the stock
00:13:45We can get you a cup of coffee
00:13:50Oh, isn't that beautiful?
00:13:52shit
00:13:55100% short GameStop stock GME
00:13:59It's an investment video. Hey Jenny
00:14:02For real, I wouldn't take investment advice from a guy in a cat shirt. Oh, okay
00:14:06Who do you take investment advice from? I don't have investments and if I did I'd listen to like a
00:14:15Banker just the way they like it
00:14:17they
00:14:20Here we go, just never mind. No, no, no, please tell me I'm dying to know what Luke Wilson from the Royal Tannin Bombs
00:14:26Thinks we should do with our sixty eight thousand dollars a year
00:14:30What ugly be you're on board? Okay, fine. Wall Street is betting that this company is gonna fail
00:14:36It's called shorting and if it fails, well, and everybody loses their job, but these hedge fund assholes make a shit ton of money
00:14:43It's bullshit. It's a bullshit way for rich people to get richer
00:14:48How do you even find this guy?
00:14:5070,000 people have watched this video. He posts his balance sheets and everything Wall Street guts is going crazy over this. Oh, it's an internet forum
00:15:00I'm ready. No. No, I'm not gonna do this with you
00:15:02The last time you brought up read it it was just all these oil paintings of Donald Trump on horseback. You liked it detestable
00:15:09Okay. Yeah, let's let's take a look

00:15:42And you're never gonna date Puff Daddy. First of all, no one has said Puff Daddy since the 90s and second of all

00:24:59Apes and our words
00:25:03Remarkably self-aware they've hooked into GameStop for whatever reason they think it's funny. It's I think it's funny
00:25:09I think they think it's a good investment retail traders always lose
00:25:13We've actually been short GameStop since 2014 the company is a complete disaster
00:25:17They've had six CEOs in two years
00:25:21I guess these guys are ignoring obvious secular market trends or they're
00:25:25The stupidest people on earth you're shorting more right now, aren't you?
00:25:30600,000 shares, maybe

00:25:49Melvin capital has declared war on GME by shorting the stock even more
00:25:54This is our call to activate diamond hands my fellow warriors
00:25:58We will not let the gay bears defeat us. We are on a mission to the fucking moon
00:26:03This is one that is bigger than your personal games more than just 10 days for a new Lambo
00:26:09This is our chance to rise up together to stick it to the big man
00:26:14Squeezing Melvin by the fucking balls with the collective power of diamond-handling
00:26:19Wall Street bets I thought were a bunch of idiots on money in a stock because they thought it was funny
00:26:26Now I see what Wall Street bets really is
00:26:29This is one of those rare moments
00:26:31Wall Street

00:27:37I believe in this stock and I believe in this community
00:27:43I'll be honest. It's been kind of a shitty year
00:27:50For a lot of people a lot of people lost people the past 12 months I did too my sister Sarah
00:27:59I
00:28:05Don't talk about it much

00:28:17So Merry Christmas
00:28:28I

00:28:58Classic
00:28:5995 yes, sadly, it's a gas guzzler. Yeah. Yeah this one, too
00:29:06But she's such a beauty. I couldn't stand a trader
00:29:1196 Honda Accord
00:29:132003 not quite a classic
00:29:23It's kind of weird to talk to someone and see their whole face, right
00:29:28It's been so long. I
00:29:30work at a hospital
00:29:32You could probably tell
00:29:34Essential worker. Thank you for everything you do. Oh, you're very welcome
00:29:50Hey
00:29:52Have a good night
00:29:54Cool
00:29:56Safe travels
00:30:15Remember when you were just making fun of me and now you're really obsessed. No, I don't recall
00:30:20How much are you up?
00:30:22948 it's not get the little it was like 2,000 before Christmas
00:30:27Maybe you should sell
00:30:30No
00:30:31It's not about the money. The stock market is not about the money. Oh, you just got to read some of the stuff on here
00:30:37Never understood when my dad was so pissed off about this whole thing. But now I do I
00:30:44Told you about a store, right?
00:30:46Costco
00:30:48shopko I
00:30:49was like this like
00:30:51big chain in our area
00:30:54My dad he worked his way all the way up from bag boy the general manager
00:30:59Then one of these Wall Street funds came in and bought it and vampire sucked all the money out of it and then declared bankruptcy
00:31:06book
00:31:08Yeah
00:31:11He lost his pension everything
00:31:15So I had to work at pick and fucking save until the day died and now that's why I'm up to my ass and dead
00:31:21And these fuckers are trying to do the same thing to game stuff
00:31:26Fuck
00:31:29Fuck them all
00:31:51I
00:31:54Look at this
00:31:55This guy wants to cash out me a hundred dollars to send him a selfie or 500 if I live chat him from a bubble bath
00:32:02Yes, yes, we should do it. What? Yes, we do it and then put the money in the game stop
00:32:09Who am I talking to right now bitch? Let's go get it
00:32:20I
00:32:33Don't charge commission on their trades
00:32:36How do you make money?
00:32:39the idea for Robin Hood
00:32:41Really came out of the Occupy Wall Street movement all those people with no way of getting in. Is that what Occupy was about? I
00:32:49Mean were they trying to get in there? So we said it's not enough to occupy. We need to democratize Wall Street
00:32:56I'm not sure if you know this but Bajor and I are both immigrants
00:32:58I was born in Bulgaria and Bajor's parents immigrated from India to the Deep South
00:33:03Can you imagine growing up in rural Virginia with a name like Bajor for fulcrum our bot?
00:33:10We create a commission free trading so that anyone can get in the game. You don't even need a bank account
00:33:15People have really responded
00:33:17We added five million users in the last six months for a total of close to 20 at this point million
00:33:24So you're one of these tech companies that's exploded growth-wise, but doesn't make any money
00:33:28We make money, but how if you don't charge commission from interest on people's accounts, but your users are mostly young
00:33:35So how much money can they really be keeping in there? There's also payment for order flow. What's that?
00:33:40We prefer the term a stock order routing when you buy or sell stock on our app
00:33:45We send your order to market makers who process the order they pay us a tiny rebate on every trade tiny
00:33:51But it adds up. We should really get back to how we started our come what market maker
00:33:55Do you work with a few Citadel securities mostly? I'm so Ken Griffin's firm. Isn't that a hedge fund?
00:34:00Well, Ken Griffin's hedge fund is called Citadel, but Citadel securities is a completely different company also owned by Ken Griffin

00:38:18I'm a man of the people you rented out a resort relocated your entire firm here
00:38:23So you could stay open during lockdown says the man who flew his whole firm down private just for a party
00:38:28And anyway, what kind of company shuts down just because the government tells them to all the ones in your short portfolio and yours
00:38:35Oh except for one actually
00:38:37Which one GameStop?
00:38:40How they sell computer mouses mice and they claim it makes them an essential business
00:38:45That is the smartest dumbest thing I've ever I know it's actually a fun one. The revenues in the toilet
00:38:51632 million net loss last year. They'd be better off just burning the whole company down the stock
00:38:57It has been volatile. It's been up my backs retail traders
00:39:05Yeah, no stay up though, all right, bro
00:39:24Hey Marcos
00:39:26Yes, Bradley
00:39:29I
00:39:30Love how you engage for that customer, but we really want to close those pre-owned sales the margins more than double
00:39:35Oh shit double. Yeah, you didn't do any of the five prongs dude pre-orders reward card subscriptions use sales new sales trade-ins
00:39:42Yeah, I mean when I was a six-year-old gamer all I wanted was a reward card subscription $5 cash back monthly 20 points for every
00:39:48dollar spent
00:39:50Don't get me started a lot of really smart people in corporate put this plan together
00:39:53Yeah, but any of them ever played a video game. It doesn't matter Marcos because they own our asses
00:40:00They don't know my ass
00:40:02They do and they always will
00:40:10Hey Bradley
00:40:15You ever heard of a short squeeze
00:40:25Is that a sexual thing
00:40:28No
00:40:33Here's what's going on late last year
00:40:35Hedge funds started shorting stock in the retail store GameStop
00:40:40Meaning they had bet against it and needed it to drop in price for their investments to be successful now
00:40:46Unfortunately for the hedge funds small investors started buying the stock led by something called Wall Street bets a popular
00:40:54Juvenile foul-mouthed reddit page and when Wall Street bets noticed that hedge funds had taken a large short position in GameStop stock
00:41:03They decided to punish the Wall Street big boys and launched a coordinated buying spree
00:41:08The revolutionaries on reddit are spanking Wall Street's ass GameStop shares absolutely going nuts
00:41:14I think it was up over 70% at one point
00:41:18massive short squeeze
00:41:19Closing there with a gain of 51% after traders on message board
00:41:24AHHHHHHHHH
00:41:28What?
00:41:29Happy Wednesday
00:41:31Happy humpday
00:41:33Cheese
00:41:34Look at this shit
00:41:35A ninety percent increase in one day in one fucking day
00:41:39We're going to the moon
00:41:42What
00:41:45Okay, now if you've been watching this price section
00:41:48This is what I'm talking about
00:41:49You could really feel that panic from Wall Street right when they started to feel a little squeeze
00:41:52You're starting to really feel a little squeeze.
00:41:55Oh, I need a drink.
00:41:56I need a drink.
00:41:57I know we all drink in the night.
00:41:58We fucking did it.
00:42:00We started from the bottom and now we're here.
00:42:04Let's raise a glass.
00:42:06To a great company that's undervalued.
00:42:09Cheers.
00:42:10Soon may the 10 of me come.

00:42:31What the fuck?
00:42:32Oh, language.
00:42:33The baby's here.
00:42:34What are you gonna do?
00:42:35Get a Ferrari?
00:42:36A Lambo?
00:42:37Caroline, you're gonna ask for a big diamond, right?
00:42:39I have a diamond.
00:42:40Keith, you get a fucking diamond.
00:42:41If I were you, I'd look like DJ Khaled right now.
00:42:43Kev, it's not real.
00:42:45I mean, it's real, but it's just paper.
00:42:47Just on paper?
00:42:48You're gonna sell, right?
00:42:50No.
00:42:51I mean, I don't know.
00:42:55We haven't talked about it.
00:42:56What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:42:58I'm riding mom's bike every day to Dorchester
00:43:00to drop off cheeseburgers,
00:43:01because you won't let me use your fucking car
00:43:02and you're Mr. Oh, I won't sell and take millions of dollars.
00:43:05Hey, well, what you do with your life is your choice.
00:43:07You think I wanted to get laid off from Dick's
00:43:08during a global pandemic?
00:43:10I love those sneakers, man.
00:43:11I love that store.
00:43:12I love Dick's.
00:43:13Mom's bike don't even have keys.
00:43:14We don't even know if it's reached the top.
00:43:16The stock, I don't know, jumped like 23% yesterday,
00:43:19double from Friday's close.
00:43:20But he's right.
00:43:21I mean, $11 million is a lot of fucking dough.
00:43:23Thank you.
00:43:24Okay, yes, but since Ryan Cohen joined the board,
00:43:28this fucking guy got a two billion market cap.
00:43:30I mean, yeah, but that's not what I'm seeing.
00:43:33That's not what I'm seeing, Kev.
00:43:35Kev, you there?
00:43:40Hey, hang on.
00:43:42Yeah.
00:43:44Ugh.
00:43:50Fuck, I think cold.
00:43:55Girl, you gotta sell.
00:43:56I'm not selling.
00:43:58How much are you up?
00:43:59$15,000 and some change.
00:44:01Hey, hey, baby girl, what the fuck?
00:44:06You need to get up while you can.
00:44:08Don't be an idiot.
00:44:09You remember Redhead back up?
00:44:11He's worth $11 million and he's not selling.
00:44:14No fucking way.
00:44:15Yes, he is.
00:44:16He is.
00:44:17And he's not selling.
00:44:18No fucking way.
00:44:19Yes, fucking way.
00:44:20This is what I'm telling you.
00:44:21Diamond hands.
00:44:23Diamond hands.
00:44:25You hold the line no matter what the market does,
00:44:27no matter what Wall Street says.
00:44:29What happens when everyone else sells first
00:44:31and before you get out, you've lost all your money.
00:44:34Are there any volunteers?
00:44:37We're gonna hold the line.
00:44:38Come on.
00:44:39Someone has to go first.
00:44:40Okay, yeah, I'll do it.
00:44:47Here we go, everyone.
00:44:48The first COVID vaccine at Pittsburgh Presbyterian.
00:44:51Ah, fuck, fuck, fuck.
00:44:55Guys, we need your help.
00:44:57What should we do?
00:44:59So listen, my girl bought in under 20
00:45:01and now it is over 60.
00:45:04So like, should she sell?
00:45:06On the one hand, she has principles.
00:45:09On the other, she has 100K in student debts.
00:45:12One way that you can think about the comparison
00:45:14between Marxism and utilitarian tradition
00:45:17is that they both have a micro story and a macro story.
00:45:21When you think of utilitarian tradition-
00:45:23The only thing that would convince her to sell
00:45:26is if Roaring Kitty sold.
00:45:29So, where my pussy at?
00:45:32You have to have a micro story, a phrase,
00:45:35or have just individual actions to go with it.
00:45:39Where my pussy at?
00:45:40Where my pussy at?
00:45:42Where my pussy at?
00:45:43Where my pussy at?
00:45:47I'm so sorry.
00:45:49Hey, hey, where my pussy at?
00:45:52Where is my pussy at?
00:45:54It's not in here.
00:46:14Whoa.
00:46:16Wait, listen, hold on.
00:46:19Future generations will look back
00:46:21and say good men stood here.
00:46:23Good men fought and died on this ground
00:46:25as they point to a trade and view daily chart
00:46:27of GME zoomed in on January.
00:46:31Since the spawn of the stonk market,
00:46:32two classes of people have been pitted against each other.
00:46:35Eternal enemies forever forced and baited to combat.
00:46:38Lions and hyenas.
00:46:40These lions, they're not lions.
00:46:42These lions, these Wall Street hedge funds have it all.
00:46:46Billions of dollars, bailouts, reckless trades,
00:46:49these dirty fucking criminal bastards.
00:46:52Yeah, these fucking motherfuckers.
00:46:57And then there's us, the working men, the average Joe.
00:47:02What do we have?
00:47:03What the fuck do we have?
00:47:06They literally call us dumb money.
00:47:08These lions, these hedge fund guys
00:47:10are the ones with silver spoons in their mouths.
00:47:12The top 1% of the 1%.
00:47:14They have massive bank accounts,
00:47:15eat medium rare grade A Wagyu steak.
00:47:18What the fuck is that?
00:47:19That sounds delicious.
00:47:20With truffle shavings for lunch?
00:47:21Fuck.
00:47:22They frequent the finest strip clubs.
00:47:24They have blowin' escorts on their yacht parties.
00:47:26Why do we hate these guys?
00:47:28Then you know what they will tell these escorts.
00:47:30What's an escort?
00:47:31Stop listening.
00:47:32When the smoke and hop blonde asks them,
00:47:34like how do you have so much money?
00:47:38You know what they say?
00:47:38Dumb money, babe.
00:47:40Dumb money.
00:47:43Something is burning.
00:47:46Oh, damn it.
00:47:48Shit.
00:47:49You said shit.
00:47:59Lads, the GME trade is about class warfare.
00:48:02Playing it simple.
00:48:04We may be hyenas, yes.
00:48:06But guess what?
00:48:07We put enough of us together.
00:48:09We can destroy a lion.
00:48:11It's on, motherfuckers.
00:48:17Oh, we coming for y'all.
00:48:19Y'all better get ready.
00:48:20We fucking coming for you.
00:48:22That is some nerdy shit, man.
00:48:25My brother is a fucking nerd.
00:48:34Fuck!
00:48:37Fuck!
00:48:44Counting down from five
00:48:45and then I'm coming back in there
00:48:46and I don't think you want that.
00:48:50Five, four.
00:48:52Three, two.
00:48:56Thank you.
00:48:57How was your day?
00:48:58Long.
00:48:59It's so hard to keep them focused on Zoom school.
00:49:02They're just not into it.
00:49:05How was your day?
00:49:06Good.
00:49:10You're not worried about the short squeeze thing?
00:49:12The down will break next week.
00:49:14A few of them will decide it's gone high enough.
00:49:16They'll cash out.
00:49:17The rest will follow.
00:49:18Hopefully we'll come crashing down.
00:49:20I kept thinking the last short squeeze
00:49:22that actually worked.
00:49:24Acmin and Herbalife.
00:49:26Before that, Piggly Wiggly.
00:49:28Piggly Wiggly.
00:49:29Yeah, 1923, a bear cartel
00:49:31was shorting the Piggly Wiggly grocery store.
00:49:34Found her.
00:49:35He takes out a loan for what would be
00:49:37$150 million today.
00:49:39He buys back almost all the stock,
00:49:40like 99% of the stock.
00:49:41The price of the stock goes up 50%.
00:49:44How much does GameStop owe?
00:49:45Then, the exchange, they halt trading on the stock
00:49:48so the short sellers can cover their positions.
00:49:51Is that legal?
00:49:53The founder had to declare bankruptcy,
00:49:54so it was all fine in the end.
00:49:58And you knew all that or you looked it up?
00:50:01Every fund manager knows that story.
00:50:06You looked it up.
00:50:09Double check some numbers, maybe.
00:50:21Oh, you see what's going on at GME?
00:50:24There's more of these idiots?
00:50:25A lot more.
00:50:26They won't hold much longer.
00:50:27Okay, honey, they're holding.
00:50:30It just crossed 100.
00:50:31It just crossed 100.
00:50:35Gabe?
00:50:37Where are you?
00:50:43You should probably dial in.
00:50:45Yeah, be on in one second.
00:50:46GameStop, extraordinary volatility today.
00:50:49You know, we might wanna make this the stock of the day
00:50:52now that it's gaining 103%.
00:50:54That is volatility.
00:50:55I will tell you, I've never seen anything like it.
00:50:58I'm concerned about it deeply.
00:51:00I'm calling it the ultimate short squeeze.
00:51:02How much money is being made?
00:51:03Holy fucking shit.
00:51:05GameStop, no shares, not stocks.
00:51:07Holy fucking shit.
00:51:09130% today is bullish retail traders.
00:51:12Holy fucking shit.
00:51:13Yo, what is this?
00:51:15Shitballs.
00:51:16Holy shit.
00:51:17If you look at the chart for the month,
00:51:18it's up 220%.
00:51:21Oh, there, yeah.
00:51:23It's crazy.
00:51:24Holy fucking shit.
00:51:25Holy fucking shit.
00:51:26The fact that if you go short
00:51:27in some of these elaborate options trades,
00:51:30you can lose money to infinity.
00:51:32GameStop now 123 and change, another record high.
00:51:36Holy fucking shit.
00:51:37It's completely disconnected from the fundamentals
00:51:39and this is very much being driven by retail investors,
00:51:42many of them trading on Robinhood.
00:51:44When the music stops,
00:51:45somebody is gonna be left without a seat.
00:51:46This is for casino money.
00:51:48We're literally putting the game in GameStop.
00:51:50GameStop is the craziest I think I've ever seen.
00:51:53True investors never heard of Reddit a few years ago,
00:51:56but for that to drive a short-
00:51:58It is wall speed bets.
00:51:59It's worth going to the site
00:52:01because it's incredibly compelling.
00:52:03You may think it's fraught,
00:52:04but they're using arguments
00:52:06that they think are holed up under scrutiny.
00:52:08I just like the stock.
00:52:09I can't look.
00:52:10I can't look.
00:52:11I can't look.
00:52:12It's up another 4%.
00:52:12I'm gonna have a fucking heart attack.
00:52:14Should we sell?
00:52:14And betray your boyfriend?
00:52:15Absolutely not.
00:52:16No.
00:52:17Maybe.
00:52:18Well, how much they are being very specific
00:52:21to break the shorts.
00:52:22I mean, what's going on at GameStop right now
00:52:24conceivably could take a couple of firms out.
00:52:27If they were stupid enough to be short.
00:52:29Babe, how much did we make today?
00:52:32Five million.
00:52:34And yesterday?
00:52:35Four million.
00:52:39Babe.
00:52:40Yeah.
00:52:43We're like really fucking rich.
00:52:52How much did we lose today?
00:52:56A billion.
00:53:00And yesterday?
00:53:02A billion.
00:53:07Ugh.
00:53:08The news to bring you right now
00:53:09is that Melvin Capital Management,
00:53:11this is the hedge fund that had shorted this company
00:53:15that had effectively been attacked
00:53:17by an army of investors trying to push up
00:53:21and press up the stock of GameStop.
00:53:24They've taken a rather huge loss.
00:53:26Sorry, if you could just put your head up for a sec.
00:53:30Thanks.
00:53:31How long you been down here?
00:53:33A few months.
00:53:35You like the weather?
00:53:39Heat is nice.
00:53:40Humidity, not as much.
00:53:43I can see that.
00:53:45All right.
00:53:46I think you're good to go.
00:53:55Oh.
00:54:13Hey.
00:54:14Hey, man.
00:54:15Hi.
00:54:16It's good to connect.
00:54:17You too, great to be here, excited.
00:54:18I'm glad you are.
00:54:19Listen, I wanna get right to it.
00:54:21From what I'm hearing, you guys are bankrupt.
00:54:26No, what? Oh.
00:54:27Because the word on the street is that you're drowning.
00:54:30No, that's crazy. We're doing great.
00:54:33You're on the record with that?
00:54:35Obviously.
00:54:36All right, man, well then, we're going to get the live feed up right now,
00:54:39and then we're going to get to you right after this next advertising break.
00:54:42Perfect, great. Yes, can't wait.
00:54:45All right, one more spot, and then you're going to be up.
00:54:48I really do think this is the right time for you to communicate.
00:54:51Great, yes. Agreed.
00:54:53Address it all head-on. It's going to be good.
00:54:58No.
00:54:59Look, Gabe, we're on in ten seconds.
00:55:01I can't do this. I'm sorry.
00:55:02Gabe, seriously.
00:55:03Bye. I'm terribly sorry.
00:55:04Seriously, come on.
00:55:05We're going on right now.
00:55:15Hey.
00:55:17What's the damage?
00:55:45Let me guess. You need cash.
00:55:47You didn't call Ken first, did you?
00:55:49He had Phillips reach out.
00:55:51How much did he offer?
00:55:54I haven't called him back yet.
00:55:56Well, how much do you need?
00:55:57You know what? Don't answer that. The number doesn't matter.
00:55:59Whatever it is, I'd love to buy in.
00:56:01Tell Ken to fill in the rest.
00:56:03Prick.
00:56:05Hey, Ken.
00:56:06Hey.
00:56:07Hi.
00:56:08Um, so I might need, uh, a new investor.
00:56:14Consider it done.
00:56:15Just keep moving forward.
00:56:17Don't think about what Grandpa Melvin used to say.
00:56:20Prick.
00:56:23Thank you.
00:56:24Oh, sit it out, man.
00:56:25I'm sorry.
00:56:26I'm sorry.
00:56:27I'm sorry.
00:56:28I'm sorry.
00:56:29I'm sorry.
00:56:30I'm sorry.
00:56:31I'm sorry.
00:56:32I'm sorry.
00:56:33Poor guy.
00:56:35Another goddamn bailout.
00:56:38Can you believe this crap?
00:56:40Nobody bailed me out when Richard left me alone with 2 toddlers, a mortgage, a shit car that never worked.
00:56:47We can't just say shit, but we can.
00:56:49It's just so damn unfair.
00:56:50And you know it.
00:56:51All we've done for the last year is work our asses off helping people.
00:56:54And all we've gotten is one $600 check.
00:56:57is work our asses off helping people,
00:56:59and all we've gotten is one $600 check.
00:57:02This idiot Fs up just about as bad as anyone can F,
00:57:05and his friends come running in with $3 billion.
00:57:08That's why I keep telling you, you're never gonna win.
00:57:11Just take the money and do something nice.
00:57:12Pay off your mortgage, get that one braces.
00:57:15Look who's still holding.
00:57:17Oh.
00:57:18If he's in, I'm in.
00:57:20Yeah, he's still gonna need braces.
00:57:22Your teeth are perfect.
00:57:23So what, the stock's up $150?
00:57:25How much higher is it gonna go?
00:57:27We control the price now, not Wall Street,
00:57:29and no one on there is selling.
00:57:30Shoes?
00:57:31You're all so delusional.
00:57:33Maybe, but look at what we've managed to do
00:57:35with these hedge funds.
00:57:36If we keep driving up the price,
00:57:38maybe we'll scare more of these guys
00:57:40into closing out their shorts,
00:57:41and then all of that bailout money becomes ours.
00:57:44Wait, your screen name is Stonk Mom?
00:57:52Help your mother.
00:57:53Why me and not Keith?
00:57:54Just shut up and do it, okay?
00:57:56You have to take the potato.
00:57:57You're all rich now?
00:57:58Just a $23 million on paper, but I won't sell?
00:58:00Kevin!
00:58:01Loser says what?
00:58:03What?
00:58:04Kevin, let Keith do it.
00:58:09Tell us what.
00:58:11Oh, I was waiting to tell you in person,
00:58:14but the stock we bet on, GameStop, is up.
00:58:18Good.
00:58:20How much up?
00:58:20He's up $23 million, Pop.
00:58:23You're an asshole.
00:58:24Don't kid us.
00:58:26It's real.
00:58:26Yeah, it's real, and he's refusing to sell.
00:58:31What is going on?
00:58:33You're pulling our leg.
00:58:34No, your son's a huge internet celebrity now.
00:58:36Millions of people, including Stonk Mom,
00:58:38thinks he's some, I don't know, investment genius.
00:58:40No, he is a genius.
00:58:41No, he's not.
00:58:42You're up $23 million, and you're not selling.
00:58:48Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
00:58:50What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:58:51Do you even know how much $23 million is,
00:58:53and you're just gonna let it ride?
00:58:54What's the matter with you?
00:58:55I know what I'm doing.
00:58:56But why aren't you selling?
00:58:58What, wait, is this illegal?
00:58:59Are you in trouble?
00:59:00No, no, he's not in trouble.
00:59:01It's totally legal.
00:59:02He's posting his balance sheet on the internet.
00:59:03Hedge fund managers, they go on CNBC all the time
00:59:06to pump up the stock.
00:59:07All I do is post my balance sheet
00:59:09on Wall Street Bets after market close.
00:59:11You post your balance sheet?
00:59:13Yeah, the same idiot who left a fresh pair of Nikes
00:59:15out in the bleachers for just anyone to take.
00:59:17So you admit they were stolen.
00:59:18I admit you're a fucking moron.
00:59:19At least I won the race.
00:59:20What's the point of winning the race
00:59:21if you let some dipshit steal the prize?
00:59:23You would've broke a fork if you had the Zoom system.
00:59:25Maybe we should get in touch with Briggsy, you know?
00:59:27He works in finance.
00:59:29You think Briggsy knows more about this than Keith does?
00:59:32Well, can you talk about why you're putting your stocks
00:59:34in the Wall Street Journal?
00:59:35Wall Street Bets.
00:59:36What if somebody tries to rob you?
00:59:37Kidnap the baby?
00:59:38No one's gonna kidnap the baby.
00:59:39Nobody wants that baby.
00:59:40I'm just saying that if we're gonna talk to somebody,
00:59:42you need to talk to Briggsy.
00:59:43Yes, honey.
00:59:44This is the point I'm making.
00:59:45Enough!
00:59:46You guys, Keith has literally poured his heart
00:59:49and his soul into this for the past year.
00:59:50He knows what he's doing.
00:59:55You know it's been a tough time, right?
01:00:05You should still sell.
01:00:09I think you should sell.
01:00:12Now, eukaryotic cells.
01:00:14I just fucked the principle of the whole thing.
01:00:16I don't like it any more than you do.
01:00:18Are cells that have a lot of organelles.
01:00:22Or tiny little factories.
01:00:24For instance, the nucleus, the mitochondria.
01:00:28Now, eukaryotic cells are typically-
01:00:31You really don't think that he's fucking selling?
01:00:32No.
01:00:34Ladies?
01:00:36Masks?
01:00:40Kids are with their father for a few days,
01:00:42so I'm going to Florida.
01:00:44You finally fucking sold.
01:00:45How the fuck did I lose you?
01:00:47I don't know.
01:00:48I don't know.
01:00:48I don't know.
01:00:49I don't know.
01:00:50You finally sold.
01:00:51How the fuck did I lose you?
01:00:52No, I'm putting it on my visa.
01:00:54You're shitting me.
01:00:55You're worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in stock
01:00:57and you're a massive credit card debt.
01:00:59You really are out of your mind.
01:01:01No, babe.
01:01:01I am all in.
01:01:03Diamond hand.
01:01:05Did you know that Gabe Plotkin gave an interview
01:01:07where he's been getting death threats
01:01:08and anti-Semitic messages from these WSB guys?
01:01:11He has 10 comments.
01:01:12There's only sad apples.
01:01:13And the moderator's deleted it right away.
01:01:14You're just going to ride this thing until zero?
01:01:16No.
01:01:17I'm buying call options.
01:01:19They could go to 600 by tomorrow.
01:01:21The kid has never been a racist.
01:01:30There's eight million people in there and they all hold it.
01:01:33It's only going to go up.
01:01:38Pops.
01:01:42Look.
01:01:43This is real.
01:01:46Oh, man.
01:01:47Eight million people is real.
01:01:49H-O-D-L.
01:01:55It's a joke.
01:01:56Un chiste sin gracia.
01:01:57It's not funny.
01:02:02Mom.
01:02:04Look.
01:02:06You're at $175,000 in stock right now.
01:02:08Okay, kid.
01:02:09Like serious money.
01:02:10Like I can get you a house
01:02:11and get you up out of here kind of money.
01:02:13Nene.
01:02:18Uh-huh.
01:02:19I bought call options for cheap.
01:02:22And they hit.
01:02:24So now you're going to sell?
01:02:25No, no.
01:02:26I'm going to buy more.
01:02:29When they hit, I'm going to buy you a mansion.
01:02:31It's going to be crazy.
01:02:48We have some breaking news right now
01:02:50on what has turned into the soap opera
01:02:53and saga of the markets right now.
01:02:55And that is the story of GameStop.
01:02:57A month ago today,
01:02:58it was trading at about 20 bucks per share.
01:03:00Two days ago, it was under $80.
01:03:02Today, nearly $350 a share.
01:03:05The GameStop stock frenzy
01:03:07even now has the attention of the White House.
01:03:09Our economic team,
01:03:10including Secretary Yellen and others,
01:03:12are monitoring the situation.
01:03:13You're witnessing the rise of the stock market.
01:03:16You're witnessing the French Revolution of Finance.
01:03:18There's a rebellion aspect to it.
01:03:20There's an anti-establishment aspect to it.
01:03:22I don't know if Wall Street's ever seen it like this.
01:03:24Nope.
01:03:25We never have.
01:03:26It's generational.
01:03:26And like a generational injustices.
01:03:28This is like battle.
01:03:29Poor guys versus rich guys.
01:03:31And poor guys are winning right now.
01:03:34Fucking hold.
01:03:35If you're new here and you're trying to make a profit,
01:03:37fuck off.
01:03:38Stop what you're doing and listen up.
01:03:38I own GameStop on Robinhood and I am not selling.
01:03:41Hold.
01:03:42All you need to do is hold.
01:03:43Keep fucking holding.
01:03:45Soon the Tindy man comes and sends our rockets to the sun.
01:03:48See this right here is the human being
01:03:50who's largely responsible for all this GameStop stuff.
01:03:53Just a pure specimen.
01:03:56A godlike undefeatable creature.
01:04:00This is what excellence looks like.
01:04:03I just let it stop.
01:04:04Yesterday he posted this
01:04:06and he's in profit.
01:04:07Wait for it.
01:04:0947 million.
01:04:1047 million.
01:04:13What the fuck is happening?
01:04:16Motherfucker!
01:04:19Hey, did you try to open a browser?
01:04:24Bro, what the fuck?
01:04:25What the fuck?
01:04:26I called you didn't you?
01:04:29What the fuck is going on?
01:04:32I can't get it to load.
01:04:40Fuck.
01:04:45What?
01:04:49They shut down Wall Street bets.
01:04:51What?
01:04:52Hateful and discriminatory content.
01:04:55And that stuff has always been on there.
01:05:02That's weird.
01:05:03No?
01:05:05It's like they're trying to stop people
01:05:07from talking to each other.
01:05:11Hello?
01:05:16Babe, are you gonna get that?
01:05:17Yes.
01:05:21Hello?
01:05:23Uh, yes.
01:05:25I am, uh,
01:05:27I have a Roaring Kitty and I think value.
01:05:33No, but, but I'm gonna be impressed.
01:05:38Oh, okay.
01:05:39Sir, I just want to say how grateful I am for this job
01:05:42and how much it means to me and my family
01:05:43and I would never let a hobby turn to this.
01:05:49I understand.
01:05:56Yeah?
01:05:57There's a mass mutual there.
01:05:58Getting calls from reporters concerned
01:06:00about my outside activities.
01:06:02Was all this against the rules?
01:06:04I wasn't.
01:06:05Maybe now it is.
01:06:06Okay.
01:06:10Well, what was that call?
01:06:13Keith.
01:06:14It's okay.
01:06:15What, are you gonna lose your job?
01:06:16It's fine.
01:06:18They gave me a choice.
01:06:19Between what?
01:06:20Between your job and Roaring Kitty?
01:06:22Uh, resign or I'm fired.
01:06:25That's what he just said?
01:06:28I got it.
01:06:31Fuck it, Wall Street Bets is down
01:06:32and I can't see Roaring Kitty's balance sheet.
01:06:34I don't know what to do.
01:06:36This could be the sell off.
01:06:37I really don't want to do that.
01:06:39Well, me neither, but you can't let it go to zero.
01:06:43It's 150 grand, you need that money.
01:06:45And nobody's gonna hold it
01:06:46if they can't see what he's doing.
01:06:50Close your eyes on the count of three.
01:06:53One.
01:06:55Two.
01:06:58Three.
01:06:58Three.
01:06:59Three.
01:07:00Three.
01:07:01Three.
01:07:02Three.
01:07:03Three.
01:07:03Three.
01:07:04Three.
01:07:05Three.
01:07:06Three.
01:07:07Three.
01:07:08Three.
01:07:09Robin Hood, yeah, it's an app, it's on the phone.
01:07:14Yeah, no, your phone is ringing.
01:07:16Oh, yes, yes.
01:07:23Slow down, Norm, what did you say?
01:07:25The NSCC just sent us a file.
01:07:28They want a deposit of three billion
01:07:30to clear all the trades coming in.
01:07:32Sorry.
01:07:33Wait, who?
01:07:34They're a subsidiary of the DTCC
01:07:37and they're requesting three billion.
01:07:42Sorry, it's a little loud in here.
01:07:43I thought you just said three billion.
01:07:45I did.
01:07:48We don't have three billion, Norm.
01:07:49That's correct.
01:07:51We've only ever raised two billion
01:07:52in the history of the company.
01:07:54Holy fuck, what if we don't pay?
01:07:56They shut us down.
01:07:59The IPO?
01:08:00Like everything.
01:08:02Proof.
01:08:02I reckon Dan and I are going to jump on a call
01:08:04with Citadel at nine.
01:08:08Maybe this would be a good time
01:08:09for me to chat with Ken Griffin.
01:08:11Sure, we'll mention that.
01:08:15I can't sleep.
01:08:17Me neither.
01:08:18I just feel sick.
01:08:20We'll buy it back first thing.
01:08:24Please shut up.
01:08:38What the fuck?
01:08:42What the fuck?
01:08:44What the fuck?
01:08:45Okay, let me try.
01:08:47Is it frozen?
01:08:54They cut off the buy option.
01:08:56What?
01:08:57That's fucking criminal.
01:08:58I can't hear you, Beiju.
01:08:59What the fuck did you do?
01:09:01Calm down.
01:09:01Me calm down?
01:09:02You shut down trading on GameStop.
01:09:04I'm not buying it.
01:09:05I'm not buying it.
01:09:06You shut down trading on GameStop.
01:09:07Not all trading.
01:09:08Norm worked it out.
01:09:10The DTCC agreed to lower the deposit to 700 million
01:09:13if we shut off buying, and that's what I did.
01:09:15The Depository Trade Commission?
01:09:17They're like one degree away from Dan Griffin.
01:09:20One more time, Beiju.
01:09:22What for?
01:09:25What?
01:09:26It's not going to be okay.
01:09:27You need to fix this.
01:09:31I did fix it, Beiju.
01:09:32We've been watching shares of GameStop all day long
01:09:35after hitting a staggering high of $483.
01:09:39Their shares are now down to about 140.
01:09:42Now the best we can tell is the Robinhood app,
01:09:45that seems to have triggered what really has become
01:09:47a panic sell-off in this name.
01:09:49So if you're a retail investor or a Reddit user
01:09:53and you've held, well you are feeling
01:09:55some serious pain right now.
01:10:03Now the criticism centered on Robinhood
01:10:05for abandoning their followers here
01:10:07in favor of helping those who have shorted
01:10:09all these stocks in the first place.
01:10:11I don't particularly like the move on Robinhood today.
01:10:13I'm talking to people this morning that say,
01:10:15okay, that is anti-capitalism.
01:10:17You can't do that.
01:10:19There's been some controversy about Citadel
01:10:21and some vague accusations that somehow Citadel
01:10:24may have been involved in Robinhood's decision
01:10:26will to stop or restrict trading in GameStop
01:10:29and other shorts.
01:10:30Who is that from?
01:10:32Tendy man.
01:10:35Come back inside.
01:10:36Diamond fucking man.
01:10:40We all know how I feel about him.
01:10:42I think he's a rat in a wire.
01:10:44Okay, Vlad, you know everybody here
01:10:47is watching this hates your guts, right?
01:10:50Thank you, Dave.
01:10:51That's what I hear, but I'm a really big fan of your show
01:10:56and hopefully I can answer some of your questions.
01:10:58Vlad, can you hear us?
01:11:00Vlad, the stock importer.
01:11:00Yes, I'm here.
01:11:02Hi.
01:11:03Spill the beans, man.
01:11:04What happened last week?
01:11:05Why can't people buy the GameStop shares?
01:11:08The people demand an answer.
01:11:09To give you some background,
01:11:11I'm chief executive of Robinhood.
01:11:13Robinhood.
01:11:14And I just want to say we had no liquidity problems.
01:11:18Did something maybe shady go down here?
01:11:19It seems weird that you'd get
01:11:20a sudden $10 billion demand.
01:11:22Three, three billion.
01:11:23Okay, three billion just suddenly out of nowhere.
01:11:26Well, I wouldn't impute any shadiness to any of this.
01:11:31I don't have the full context as to what was going on
01:11:33with the NSCC to make these calculations.
01:11:38To what degree are you beholden to Citadel?
01:11:40I mean, like basically if Citadel's unhappy,
01:11:42then what happens?
01:11:44Is anyone holding you hostage right now?
01:11:47It's just no rational explanation
01:11:50on why they would do what they did
01:11:51without outside pressure, interference,
01:11:54and they basically cratered the stock on purpose.
01:11:57So I just don't believe anything that guy says.
01:12:01I want to take a cold shower after seeing this.
01:12:02Robinhood is facing lawsuits.
01:12:04We know that.
01:12:05After halting trades,
01:12:06they are accused of rigging the markets.
01:12:08When the big guys,
01:12:09including one of your main investors in your company,
01:12:12started to lose,
01:12:13you shut down the game to starve the little guys.
01:12:15They're stealing from the poor.
01:12:17They're giving back to the rich.
01:12:18They're robbing from the hood.
01:12:21What?
01:12:22I want to be 100% clear.
01:12:23All you guys deserve to go burn in hell.
01:12:25This decision to restrict trading
01:12:27was not made on the direction of Citadel
01:12:30or any market maker.
01:12:30Fuck you and your mama dupes,
01:12:32you motherfuckers, Rob.
01:12:33Fuck this guy.
01:12:34This guy is just an obfuscating piece of shit.
01:12:37Fucker.
01:12:38There's only one man I want to hear from right now.
01:12:41And Wall Street bets is down,
01:12:42so it's crickets.
01:12:44It's crickets out here.
01:12:46Say it with me.
01:12:47Where my pussy at?
01:12:49Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
01:12:52Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
01:12:55Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
01:12:57Please, please.
01:12:58I'm sorry, this is, like, my house.
01:13:01You want my autograph?
01:13:02Yeah.
01:13:04You've been served.
01:13:07Are you gonna sell?
01:13:08Hey, to the moon, baby.
01:13:10To the moon.
01:13:17Sorry to interrupt.
01:13:18We need to talk about the GameStop situation.
01:13:20I thought McCain was handling it.
01:13:22So did we,
01:13:22but the committee specifically requested you, sir.
01:13:25If they want specifics, they can have McCain.
01:13:27It's not a choice, unfortunately.
01:13:34Shitballs.
01:13:38Keith.
01:13:40A congressional subpoena.
01:13:41I never did anything illegal,
01:13:43and I always had disclaimers.
01:13:45Why would you have disclaimers if you weren't worried?
01:13:48They're standard practice, Caroline.
01:13:50Everyone has them.
01:13:56Babe.
01:13:58The answer is not in your computer.
01:14:01There's a dozen reporters on our lawn.
01:14:02You have to testify before Congress.
01:14:05The game has changed.
01:14:06I know.
01:14:07I hear you.
01:14:08I don't think you do.
01:14:16Oh my God, we're,
01:14:18we're gonna go to my mother's.
01:14:20No, she has terrible Wi-Fi.
01:14:22I'm not talking about you.
01:14:23I'm talking about me and her.
01:14:25You need to figure this out.
01:14:41Where are you going?
01:14:42The track.
01:14:43You were just on the track.
01:14:44I'm going again.
01:14:56Hi.
01:14:57Can I interest you in some champagne or a mimosa?
01:14:59Is it free?
01:15:00It is when you set up here.
01:15:01I don't have the last time for everything.
01:15:03Oh, you'll be back.
01:15:06I had half a million in stocks last week,
01:15:08but Wall Street cheated.
01:15:10Surprise, surprise.
01:15:13I could have cashed out.
01:15:15I could have paid my mortgage.
01:15:17Could have bought my kid braces,
01:15:19got a new car.
01:15:20Honey, I'm gonna get you something stronger.
01:15:21Thank you.
01:15:22You're welcome.
01:15:26Meow, kitty.
01:15:27You know, you can't just eat other people's food.
01:15:29They do reviews, right?
01:15:30Very funny.
01:15:31Here.
01:15:33What's this?
01:15:34Look, they were on sale, all right,
01:15:35before you get all emotional.
01:15:36Holy shit, you fucking softy.
01:15:38Who put you up to this?
01:15:39Carol, mom?
01:15:41No, dad.
01:15:42Called me in tears, said my big brother
01:15:43needed some moral support.
01:15:44Ha ha, fuck off.
01:15:46Come on, man, will you at least try them on, please?
01:15:49Try them.
01:15:50Come on, you're the richest man in the world.
01:15:51You're the richest man in the world.
01:15:52You're the richest man in the world.
01:15:53You're the richest man in the world.
01:15:54You're the richest man in the world.
01:15:55Come on, you're the richest man in Brockton.
01:15:56You dress like an asshole.
01:15:57I lost 15 million yesterday
01:15:58and another 15 the day before that.
01:16:00You're still the richest man in Brockton, like by far.
01:16:03Bro, you got rich dudes pissing in their pants right now.
01:16:07I mean, come on, man.
01:16:08How many people in Brockton, how I could say that?
01:16:10This has gone crazy.
01:16:11I got reporters hounding me outside my house.
01:16:14Yeah, man, me too.
01:16:15They're coming after you.
01:16:18You didn't talk to them, did you?
01:16:19What do I look like?
01:16:20I said no.
01:16:22I said give me 50 grand, maybe.
01:16:23Tell me you're kidding.
01:16:25Well, if you give me 20,
01:16:25then maybe we won't have to deal with this shit.
01:16:26What the fuck is wrong with you?
01:16:28Kevin, I've just been subpoenaed by Congress, man.
01:16:31I do not have time for your bullshit.
01:16:33Oh, come off it, man.
01:16:34Seriously, asshole.
01:16:35Chill.
01:16:36Fuck, it was a joke.
01:16:45I know.
01:16:47Sorry.
01:16:55We never used to fight this much.
01:17:00I'm sorry.
01:17:01I miss her.
01:17:02Me too.
01:17:04Kept your ego in check.
01:17:06The whole fucking world kept my ego in check.
01:17:09What the fuck are you gonna tell Congress, Keith, huh?
01:17:13Beg him not to send me to prison.
01:17:17Hey.
01:17:19Do you remember back at Stonehill
01:17:21when they dared me to run that mile naked?
01:17:24Yeah, there was a crazy storm that night, you dumb shit.
01:17:26Fuck you, man.
01:17:27That was dope, man.
01:17:28I'm a legend over there.
01:17:29Everybody remembers that.
01:17:31Okay.
01:17:31Me too, man.
01:17:32You don't think people remember your four-minute,
01:17:33three-second mile?
01:17:34Oh, what is this, a pep talk?
01:17:36Motherfucker, stop hiding.
01:17:37Seriously, okay?
01:17:39Stop being all meek and shit and running away.
01:17:42What, you want me to run through lightning
01:17:43with my dick out?
01:17:44Yeah.
01:17:45Please.
01:17:46Exactly that.
01:17:48Run through lightning with your dick out.
01:17:49Fuck it.
01:17:54You didn't go to your mom's?
01:17:56No.
01:17:58You took the car.
01:18:01How was the run?
01:18:02Did it clear your head?
01:18:04Kev found me and brought me these.
01:18:07And you guys talked?
01:18:08Yeah, he told me to run naked.
01:18:12You ran naked?
01:18:13No, it's a metaphor.
01:18:15He's saying I gotta take this thing head on.
01:18:18Well, I'm gonna run naked.
01:18:21You're gonna run naked head on?
01:18:22Well.
01:18:29I'd kinda like to see you run naked.
01:18:34By the way, Wall Street Bets is back up.
01:18:38The motherfucker held.
01:18:41Holy shit.
01:18:42He lost 30 million and he's still fucking held.
01:18:48Robinhood's back up.
01:18:49What?
01:18:52We gotta get back in.
01:18:52Where's his stock at right now?
01:18:54109.
01:18:56Are you sure?
01:18:57That's like all of the money that we made
01:18:59back into the stock.
01:19:04Yeah, you can't let them get away with this.
01:19:08Fuck them.
01:19:10If he's in, I'm in.
01:19:12He's in, I'm in.
01:19:19Fuck.
01:19:22Fuck.
01:19:23Why?
01:19:26The frenzy continues with retail investors
01:19:29bidding back up GameStop.
01:19:31Meme stock mania is back.
01:19:33As those message board traders simply send it higher.
01:19:35Stock volatility continuing it looks like this morning.
01:19:38Once again, GameStop involved in ongoing battle
01:19:41between retail investors and short sellers.
01:19:43We have a lot more on this story.
01:19:45Robinhood, Reddit, Citadel, and Melvin Capital,
01:19:48along with Keith Gill, better known as Roaring Kitty
01:19:51on social media, will be in the hot seat.
01:19:59I'm here testifying today far removed from my background.
01:20:02I grew up in a middle class family in Portland, Maine.
01:20:05My dad was a grocery store executive.
01:20:07Maybe leave that part out.
01:20:10Part about my dad?
01:20:11The executive part.
01:20:12Okay, okay.
01:20:13Fuck.
01:20:17I went to a public high school.
01:20:19I studied hard and got into Northwestern.
01:20:22Did you say a good college?
01:20:24I can't say I went to Northwestern.
01:20:25To Elite.
01:20:26Northwestern's too.
01:20:28All right.
01:20:33Upon graduation, I did not have a job.
01:20:35Today, I am married with four children.
01:20:37Gabe, where do you plan on doing your testimony?
01:20:42Here.
01:20:43In front of your wine collection?
01:20:47I mean, this is, I don't have that big a wine collection.
01:20:50Yeah, it's huge.
01:20:51Did your wrist seem to be on the bottom?
01:20:52Two.
01:20:53Maybe the center goes all the time.
01:20:55Three.
01:20:56Around you.
01:20:57Maybe here would be nice.
01:21:02Too many windows.
01:21:04Oh, it's very bright.
01:21:06Yeah, ocean front's not a great idea.
01:21:08It's blue.
01:21:09Yeah, okay, I hadn't thought of that.
01:21:11Yeah, downstairs there's more.
01:21:18Holy shit.
01:21:19Yo, Ria, our boy's on the news.
01:21:23Those relationships in D.C. are strong.
01:21:25The guys who run those hedge funds
01:21:26are the guys who fund presidential campaigns.
01:21:29You know, roaring kiddies don't have
01:21:31that kind of influence, but the hedge fund managers do.
01:21:33Gil is now being sued for securities fraud
01:21:34over his alleged role in the GameStop rally.
01:21:36Is Mr. Gil likely to appear,
01:21:38and if he appears, is he likely to talk
01:21:40if he faces the potential of prosecution?
01:21:43Fundamentals are based on three things.
01:21:46One, the digital risks are overblown.
01:21:48Two, the negative sentiment is overdone.
01:21:50And three.
01:21:56Come on, shut up.
01:21:59You guys, you guys, stop, stop.
01:22:01Let's keep going.
01:22:02All right, let's go.
01:22:03You're right, this is serious.
01:22:04You can go to jail forever.
01:22:05A long time, a long, long time.
01:22:07All right, here we go.
01:22:08Back of the game.
01:22:09Mr. Gil.
01:22:10Mr. Gil, may I call you Mr. Gil, sir?
01:22:12It's my name.
01:22:12Why the fuck wouldn't you be able to call him Mr. Gil?
01:22:13What were your intentions with the YouTube videos
01:22:17and your social media posts on GameStop?
01:22:18Yes.
01:22:19Thank you, Congresswoman.
01:22:20You're welcome.
01:22:21I developed a theory that the company
01:22:22was undervalued despite the significant short interest.
01:22:25Oh, so you were aware of the short interest?
01:22:27It is public knowledge.
01:22:28You could see it in the SEC file.
01:22:29And it was your goal to break these shorts, yes?
01:22:31To rally an online mob to artificially push
01:22:34the price of GameStop's soren?
01:22:36To the moon, as they say.
01:22:38Isn't that correct, Mr. Gil?
01:22:39Objection, objection.
01:22:40You lead the witness.
01:22:41Kev, I yield my time for the chair.
01:22:43You were hoping for the short squeeze, weren't you,
01:22:45Mr. Gil?
01:22:46Short squeeze, imbecile.
01:22:47The short squeeze was a marginal point of the thesis.
01:22:49Then why'd you talk about it in your videos all the time?
01:22:51You did talk about it in your videos.
01:22:52You talked about it a lot.
01:22:53Exactly.
01:22:54You were talking about the squeeze.
01:22:55You were like, it's just a little squeeze.
01:22:56Exactly.
01:22:57And you're really asking us to believe
01:22:58that you weren't a leader to all these retail traders?
01:23:00You're a fuck buddy.
01:23:01My point of view.
01:23:03Yes or no?
01:23:03Yes or no?
01:23:04Yes.
01:23:05Yes or no?
01:23:06You are admitting yes.
01:23:07You're a machine bottle of shit.
01:23:08Kevin.
01:23:09You were dunking tech.
01:23:09Kevin.
01:23:10You said it like a fucking what?
01:23:12I'm running with my dick out.
01:23:15Okay, why don't you just say that, okay?
01:23:17I'll stop.
01:23:19All right.
01:23:20Mr. Gil, what exactly about the fundamentals
01:23:24led you to build this bull cake?
01:23:26The fuck's with the voice?
01:23:27I don't know.
01:23:28I was trying to do AOC, but it was flat.
01:23:30I don't even think she's on the panel.
01:23:31You shut the fuck up, Breezy.
01:23:32I'll slap the shit out of you.
01:23:33Is she on the panel?
01:23:34You gonna slap me?
01:23:35Yeah, let's go.
01:23:35You ready to go?
01:23:37I've been waiting for this, dog.
01:23:56Come here.
01:23:58You're gonna be great.
01:24:01If it goes bad, it's gonna be real bad.
01:24:04Don't let it go bad.
01:24:06This year, we were voted first
01:24:07in a series of hearings by the committee
01:24:10to examine the recent market volatility
01:24:13involving GameStop.
01:24:15I wanna know how each of the witnesses here today
01:24:19will be able to answer the questions
01:24:21that have been asked by the committee.
01:24:24I wanna know how each of the witnesses here today
01:24:27contributed to the historic trading events in January.
01:24:33This recent market volatility has put a national spotlight
01:24:38on institutional practices by Wall Street firms,
01:24:42and they have demonstrated the enormous potential power
01:24:46of social media in our markets.
01:24:49We will hear firsthand from the witnesses
01:24:51regarding these events.
01:24:53The hearing will be an opportunity for this committee
01:24:56to get the facts about the role
01:24:58each of the witnesses represent,
01:25:00played, and the events we are examining today.
01:25:04Well, now, Mr. Griffin,
01:25:05if I could just ask you the first question.
01:25:07Of course.
01:25:07How many people are in the room with you?
01:25:10That's your question.
01:25:11If you could just count how many people
01:25:12are in the room with you.
01:25:18There are five people, including myself, in this room.
01:25:21Did anyone in your organization
01:25:23since January 1st contact Robinhood?
01:25:25We, of course, talk to Robinhood routinely
01:25:28in the ordinary course of business.
01:25:30We manage a substantial portion of their order.
01:25:32But did you talk to them about restricting
01:25:35or doing anything to prevent people from buying GameStop?
01:25:39I want to be perfectly clear.
01:25:42We had no role in Robinhood's decision
01:25:45to limit trading in GameStop.
01:25:47Fuck you, Ken Griffin.
01:25:48So if we depose everyone in your organization,
01:25:50we will find that?
01:25:52That is correct.
01:25:53It's like a Disney Channel villain.
01:25:56Mr. Plotkin, do you believe that there is
01:25:58a manipulation, distrust, and overall inequality
01:26:02with American finance?
01:26:03My focus is on my company, Melvin.
01:26:07Hello?
01:26:09You're on mute, dick.
01:26:10Uh, I'm sorry, you're on mute.
01:26:12Oh, no, no, no.
01:26:13Thank you, God.
01:26:15It's weird.
01:26:15It's weird.
01:26:16It keeps going.
01:26:18In my area of expertise.
01:26:20You're still on mute.
01:26:21I haven't been able to hear a word you've said.
01:26:22Unfortunately.
01:26:23Mr. Tenev, would you be willing to commit today
01:26:25to volunteering to pass on the proceeds
01:26:27of the payment for order flow to Robinhood customers?
01:26:31Congresswoman, I appreciate that question.
01:26:33When the statement we referred to was made,
01:26:35it was before Robinhood forced the entire industry
01:26:38to drop commissions and rip the payroll.
01:26:40I should take that as a no.
01:26:41You're not willing to pass on the proceeds
01:26:43of payment for order flow to your customers?
01:26:45When the other brokers dropped.
01:26:46I'm just talking to them.
01:26:47Yes.
01:26:48I don't want to be rude.
01:26:49I just have limited time.
01:26:50But if removing the revenues that you make
01:26:52from a payment for order flow
01:26:54would cause the removal of free commissions,
01:26:58doesn't that mean that trading on Robinhood
01:26:59isn't actually free to begin with?
01:27:02Good question.
01:27:10Thank you very much, Mr. Gill.
01:27:12You are now recognized for five minutes
01:27:14to present your oral testimony.
01:27:19Thank you.
01:27:28Thank you, members of the committee.
01:27:33I am happy to discuss my purchase of GameStop shares
01:27:37and my discussions of their fair value on social media.
01:27:41But before I do that, a few things I am not.
01:27:47I am not a cat.
01:27:49What did he say?
01:27:50I am not an institutional investor.
01:27:52It's like a kiddie thing.
01:27:54I do not have clients
01:27:56and I do not provide personalized investment advice
01:27:59for fees or commissions.
01:28:01I grew up in Brockton, Mass.
01:28:04My family was not wealthy.
01:28:05My father was a truck driver
01:28:07and my mom, a registered nurse.
01:28:10I was one of three kids and the first in my family
01:28:12to earn a four-year college degree
01:28:14when I graduated from Stonehill College in 2009.
01:28:18That was not a good time to be looking for a job.
01:28:21From 2010 to 2017,
01:28:23there were significant periods when I was unemployed.
01:28:26I took an interest in the stock market.
01:28:29And even though I had very little money,
01:28:31I used those times to educate myself
01:28:34and learn more about investing.
01:28:35Mr. Gill, I find it hard to believe
01:28:38that you predicted everything that happened to GameStop
01:28:41with no inside information.
01:28:43I didn't predict it.
01:28:45I honestly couldn't explain
01:28:46everything that happened in January.
01:28:49I've seen your videos.
01:28:50You honestly couldn't recount to the committee
01:28:52what caused every single up and down
01:28:55of the stock in January?
01:28:57I think you could.
01:29:00I did follow the stock very closely,
01:29:03but threshold lists, order flows, halting purchases,
01:29:06according to the press,
01:29:07these all had a material impact on the stock.
01:29:09Here's the thing,
01:29:10I have a bit of experience with this stuff
01:29:11and even I barely understand these matters.
01:29:14It's alarming how little we all know
01:29:16about the inner workings of the market,
01:29:18and I'm glad this committee is examining what happened,
01:29:20particularly with the exorbitant short interest,
01:29:23as well as any potentially manipulative shorting practices
01:29:25and brokers' reported failures
01:29:27to timely deliver shares and settle trades.
01:29:33A lot of people feel the system is broken.
01:29:35The whole idea of the stock market
01:29:37is to be like kind of a fair playing field
01:29:39where if you're smart and maybe with a little luck
01:29:42you can make your fortune.
01:29:44But if it ever was that, it's certainly not anymore.
01:29:47The big firms have such a big advantage
01:29:49in terms of technology and information
01:29:51and just sheer wealth,
01:29:52there's no hope for the little guy anymore.
01:29:55Or there was no hope.
01:29:57Maybe now there is.
01:30:02And as for me, I like the stock.
01:30:05Yeah!
01:30:06Yeah!
01:30:07Big stuff for that.
01:30:08And I don't plan on selling anytime soon.
01:30:10Hold it!
01:30:11Diamond hands.
01:30:12Diamond fucking hands.
01:30:13Diamond hands, baby.
01:30:15Atta boy.
01:30:17What a nerd.
01:30:18Thank you.
01:30:27I was caught.
01:30:29I think.
01:30:31Yesterday's Reddit hearing in Congress
01:30:33brought together some of the power players
01:30:35behind the January trading frenzy.
01:30:37Maxine Waters did say that there will be
01:30:39additional hearings on this.
01:30:41And Roy Kitty, same guy, by the way.
01:30:44Whether it's markets or social media,
01:30:47or I'll just call it media,
01:30:48because that's what it is now.
01:30:49Do you think any new regulation gets done?
01:30:51What's clear is that we're in the wild west
01:30:53and that there is so much activity
01:30:54that's going on on these online forums.
01:30:56And we've seen in the last month,
01:30:58in the last six weeks,
01:30:59how much force day traders and mass
01:31:01can bring to the market and actually affect it.
01:31:03They used to just make some noise around the edges.
01:31:05Now they can actually move markets.
01:31:13Cheers.
01:31:40Cheers, everyone.
01:31:44Cheers.
01:31:57You're a fucking gangster.
01:32:14Hey, man, I noticed you've been selling a lot of new games,
01:32:16and I just want to remind you again
01:32:17that we really want to be pushing customers
01:32:19towards the higher margin premium games.
01:32:23No, I'm not going to do that.
01:32:25Excuse me?
01:32:26Oh, and in fact, I'm not going to do
01:32:28any of your circle-life bullshit
01:32:29or your TikTok dance content.
01:32:30You're quitting then?
01:32:33Okay.
01:32:34No, I mean, I thought about it,
01:32:36but, like, yo, I love it here.
01:32:39I mean, it's a good place to be.
01:32:42Like, yo, I love it here.
01:32:44So I think I'm going to stay.
01:32:45Oh, you're awfully smug for a kid
01:32:47who lost all his money buying stock.
01:32:49What'd you say it was going to?
01:32:51A thousand?
01:32:53I'm also not going to work
01:32:54at the ass-cracking bar in Newark.
01:32:56You're fired.
01:32:59No, I'm not.
01:33:01You got to get that approved
01:33:02by, like, seven levels of people, yo.
01:33:04Thanks to the geniuses who put that together, right?
01:33:07The ones who used to own my ass.
01:33:09You sold?
01:33:11Half.
01:33:14Right at the tippy-tippy top.
01:33:16And I'm holding the other half for the long haul.
01:33:19Cause I'm a savage.
01:33:21Classy, bougie, ratchet.
01:33:24Sassy, moody, nasty.
01:33:27Acting stupid, what's happening?
01:33:29I'm a savage.
01:33:31Classy, bougie, ratchet.
01:33:34Sassy, moody, nasty.
01:33:37Acting stupid, what's happening?
01:33:39Bitch, what's happening?
01:33:41Eat me and record it, but your edge up all I'm showing.
01:33:44I keep my niggas private, so his AP all I'm showing.
01:33:47Beefing with you bitches, really getting kind of boring.
01:33:49If it ain't about the money,
01:33:51then you know I'm going to ignore it.
01:33:52I'm the shit.
01:33:54I need a mouth to clean the floor, it's too much drips.
01:33:56I keep a night, I keep a watch, I keep a whip.
01:33:59Fuck it.
01:34:00Let's play a game, I'ma make you pay.
01:34:02I'm a savage.
01:34:03Classy, bougie, ratchet.
01:34:06Sassy, moody, nasty.
01:34:09Watch, I keep a whip.
01:34:10Fuck it.
01:34:11I'm here testifying today far removed from my background.
01:34:14I grew up in a middle-class family in Portland, Maine.
01:34:17I went to a public high school.
01:34:18I studied hard and got into a good college.
01:34:21Upon graduation, I did not have a job.
01:34:23Acting stupid, what's happening?
01:34:24Bitch, what's happening?
01:34:26When the statement you refer to was made,
01:34:30I believe 2015 or 2016,
01:34:32it was before Robinhood forced the entire industry
01:34:35to drop commissions.
01:34:37I should take that as a no.
01:34:38You're not willing to pass on the proceeds
01:34:40of paying for order flow to your customers?
01:34:42That body right, but you know this pussy fat.
01:34:44Ooh, I drop a picture, now these bitches feel attacked.
01:34:47Ay, don't let that nigga gas you up and get you whacked.
01:34:50Ooh, I make a call and get that pussy next night.
01:34:51But did you talk to them about restricting?
01:34:54Are you doing anything to prevent people from buying,
01:34:58not selling, but buying in-game stuff?
01:35:00Let me be perfectly clear.
01:35:03Absolutely not.
01:35:08You're not drunk, are you?
01:35:10No, I don't drink at all.
01:35:12I'm serious.
01:35:13I can't believe you're in my last best friend class,
01:35:15but I'm telling you, back in my day,
01:35:17my best friend class was about to kill me.
01:35:19I'm not gonna get it in a second.
01:35:21It's not gonna happen, so don't talk to me about it.
01:35:25Just leave me alone.
01:35:26I gotta get to my class.
01:35:27Sorry, I'm late.
01:35:29What time is it?
01:35:30I don't know.
01:35:31What time?
01:35:32It's five to seven.
01:35:34You found me?
01:35:35Thank you.
01:35:37Ah, I can't believe you're my brother.
01:35:39You look like a fuckin' ninja turtle.
01:35:40Really?
01:35:41Yep.
01:35:43You sad?
01:35:43Fuck you!
01:35:44What?

01:36:10Takin' their time right behind my back
01:36:15And a message comin' from my eyes
01:36:18Is leave it alone
01:36:37Don't wanna hear about it
01:36:56Every single one's got a story to tell
01:37:01Everyone knows about it
01:37:05From the queen of England to the hounds of hell
01:37:09And if I catch you comin' back my way
01:37:12I'm gonna serve it to you
01:37:18And that ain't what you want to hear
01:37:20But that's what I'll do
01:37:25And the feeling comin' from my bones
01:37:28Sets my heart on
01:37:58And that's what I'll do
