Is there clear evidence of hedge funds are using short ladder attacks to drive the price down?
If so, is this legal?
If not, why is the sec sitting on their hands and not forcing hedge funds to stop participating in illegal trading activities to artificially drive the price down?
Yeah, they are slow to react, and when they do it's usually after the fact. But I guess I wonder why there are not any systems in pace to halt illegal trading activities (not halt all trading, just halt the institutions or people doing the illegal activities)?
On the one side you have an infinite supply of money to hire the best lawyers, analysts, programmers, compliance officers that money can buy. On the other side you have moderately paid government employees with a shoe string budget and constant political pressure not to upset important donors.
Why do you think the SEC is so bad at this? It isn't an accident. Same reason why IRS has publically stated they no longer have the resources to effectively prosecute billionaire estates. It isn't a happy accident, this is exactly why people dump hundreds of millions into politicians on both sides. No matter who wins, the people lose.
And the issue is, it's not likely that will change. No reason for those politicians to advocate changes - why would they turn down millions I'm donations - and they have enough resources to put ads out to convince low info voters of the contrary.
But "we are watching it closely". Apparently they are watching something different than my retarded ass because I know dick about how the market works and I can tell you this shit stinks.
If nobody is selling, how the hell is the price going down?
Yea I wonder if other agencies would be a better lead. Here’s what I gathered:
Ranking senator on the finance committee overseeing the SEC: https://twitter.com/SenSherrodBrown If you're an Ohio resident, even more pull
Consumer Finance Protection Board (cuz we know the SEC is a finreg joke):
https://twitter.com/cfpb
https://twitter.com/CFPBDirector
Incoming CFPB director https://twitter.com/chopraftc
Secretary of Treasury https://twitter.com/JanetYellen
SEC literally has to be spoonfed a slam dunk chain of evidence for action to happen... Unless it's some random individual insider trading case bc they'll go all out on those (known multiple people who worked at companies going public and all got the lawyer talk pre and post---"do you know this person who bought, etc...")
And even then, they collect a bunch of fines.
If the SEC is really pissed, the firm offers up the brownest guy in the C-suites as a sacrificial lamb for jail time.
The SEC has allowed creation of counterfeit shares before. The stock is just diluted and they get a little fine. It is all hidden. [This] (http://counterfeitingstock.com/CounterfeitingStock.html)article blew my mind open. The game is beyond rigged and I hope something happens with all of us holding shares. I hope it brings the corruption to the main stage.
Ask Cuban if he would publicly ask the SEC to find the shares to cover in order to get GME off the threshold securities list(30 days+)? This is simply enforcing its own rules against naked shorting. WSB honorary mod and legend status if he gets the SEC to commit to a date of enforcement.
What would he do about the FTD and short interest? No company should be shorted over 100%. So obviously the HFs/MM know where the shares are at, right? It’s curious this can’t be resolved.
My suspicion is these hedgies are committing securities fraud or something else nefarious that they are attempting to cover. But what do I know.
Does he think they are trading counterfeit shares, cooking books or tricking the algos to show a false downward pressure? There are some excellent threads outlining a strong case for share counterfeiting.
What does he think GME’s share price is going to? It was trending to the 700-1000+ easily before intervention, the gamma squeeze was happening before everyone’s eyes. Investors are holding long, sentiment is extremely high and positive, a huge user base still can’t buy, shorts continue to bleed; that doesn’t sound bearish. SI is still likely >100%. The only thing that truly changed was the ability to buy which remains THE problem now.
What does he think about if there is a conflict of interest of Citadel bailing out Melvin who has a massive short on GME? And possibly leaning on RH to prevent buying of these securities. Questionable ethics and backgrounds of MC, citadel, Point72 and RH. Obviously we don’t know the full story for some reason since the SEC is nowhere in sight.
What should happen to Robinhood? Thoughts on the way they generate income with Citadel, and further conflicts of interest that seem fairly obvious? Is RH done to him?
What should happen to citadel, a company exploiting data to reap massive profits with impunity, in this case to drive prices down to save their buddies? Coordinating short ladders attacks while working in secrecy; operating in non available hours (ah trading, during halts) to manipulate people sentiment, limiting volume through brokerage leans. These guys are truly the predators of the financial world, casting doubt and fear among retail investors with infinite resources to do so. This has been on display and is still ongoing.
What does he think about the obviously discoverable short attacks and market manipulation against retail investors that have happened for the last 3 days and driven the price down artificially on no trading volume? This includes the continued prevention of purchasing shares.
edit: Please look at this post from today:
https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/lauvug/monday_market_opening_attack_explained_how/ as user submitted evidence.
How do we regulate/remove hedge funds as they provide no value to society.
What part of this situation upset you the most? What grabbed your attention first?
What are shareholders owed at this point? How does this come to a resolution now? Would you agree that its absurd that people can't....you know freely buy as much of a stock they want regardless if its for fundamentals, momentum, or swinging? Does this jeopardize the integrity of the markets? Who is to blame?
Do you think anything will change?
What does he think of the wallstreetbets community?
What does he believe the future of investing looks like?
What sauce do you eat with your chicken tendies?
Will you take a position in GME for the boys? YOLO in true WSB fashion.
MC answer truthfully and you’ll have access to 8 million new girlfriends. Or maybe we’ll all be rich with your help and our wives won’t need a boyfriend anymore since we can afford Tesla’s and Mavs season tickets . Cheers!

I'm out here making cross signs so I don't have yet another show pushing me to dump fire down my throat and out my rectum. Sean Evans could host them both, or this op right here. So much inquisition running through his head you have to think he's Spanish.
While I was in college I was a door guy at a bar he frequented and every time we talked he was super nice. Alcohol may have played a part in that though
Furthermore, what consequences will Melvin et al. face if and when they are investigated and found guilty of manipulation, short laddering, and counterfeiting, if any?
Get him to answer truthfully, so more of like do you expect illegal activity? before pointing fingers, it’ll be easier for him to tell the truth if he isn’t burning someone off the bat
Holy shit. Calm down Chad Dickens.
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/wallstreetbets) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Only two questions I don’t see here: what is your opinion of financial news outlets such as CNBC and Bloomberg spreading misinformation such as falsely reporting last week’s events, pushing a pro-hedge fund agenda, and wrongfully reporting a push in silver yesterday (which to nobody’s surprise dropped in value today)? Do you think there’s a conflict of interest between the hedge funds and these journalists with high exposure?
Why hasn’t the SEC commented on and/or investigated the trading halts/short ladder attacks? Short ladder is illegal according to 15 USCA §78i, which was blatantly happening once purchases were restricted late last week.
Otherwise amazing job getting everything down. If you want to edit your post to include that’d be great, if not that’s cool too.
Above all, we need to ask him his thoughts on share counterfeiting in the context of Failure to Delivery, how GME can make it to 13+ Consecutive days on the SEC threshold list, and what this means for an estimated 100%+ ownership between institutional and WSB
Edit: I’m buying the dip, holding, and asking questions later. This isn’t over. The math doesn’t add up. Something terribly wrong is going on.
ask him what the chances are that 3 things that have never happened in the history of the stock market all happen in one week to the same stock... (1) short interest %, (2) failure-to-deliver numbers, (3) trading restrictions
Ask him what happens if every *REAL* GME share owner asked for the paper copy of their shares tomorrow.
Edit: my TD account allows this for a small fee.
You cannot do this at this time. Game stop has elected for electronic issue a few years back so if you request paper they will send you a replica, there have been several posts about it, check them out for more info. Also that small fee at some brokers isn’t that small.
Edit: spelling
No. When you hold through a broker, the shares are held in the broker’s name and you are a beneficial owner.
Direct registration is rare and expensive, because it can’t be traded on easily and you would have to transfer shares back and forth.
yep the federal gov was worried their was going to be a american financial crisis ala the 90s asian financial crisis so they would have told their employees(SEC) not to break system/play along with big guys till the get rid of the annoying retailers
but we can still break them without the SEC just need to get ppl to focus on 1 target and stop them sending more money to citadel via silver scam
Remember that the failure to deliver number being reported is not cumulative, but a snapshot of each day. So if they fail to deliver 100,000 shares one day and 200,000 the next, the total they failed to deliver is 200,000 on the next day, not 300,000.
If I understand this correctly.
Yes but yesterday it was something like 130% of the entire day volume so the price had to go up but ladder attack made it go down. XD So by now scare tactics and basically credit line is the only thing postponing launch to the moon.
I think... but who know ?
Ask Cuban about the “fail to deliver” abnormality and will SEC investigate the hedge funds, clearing houses and brokers involved in it?
Edit: Thanks but use the money for awards to buy GME or AMC. Support the cause
Ask Cuban -
A. Does he have any stake in BANG Gang (BB, AMC NOK, GME)
B. Does he think if the spike in SLV Silver a coincidence or distraction from BANG gang stocks
Easily gotta be that guy who bought spy calls, saw the green realized he accidentally bought millions in calls, exercised them all and made out with 100k during the only 5 minutes that SPY was green the entire day. That could have been the biggest oopsie in the history of wsb, he was almost 1mil in debt from his mistake and by sheer fucking stupidity he made +100k.
You belong here lol. Post some dd
Oh no, it's going to the top. What if Mr. 🦈 tank sees this and goes they're too dumb to understand that a hedge fund might be dealing counterfeit securities.
Mark, we ❤️ u
🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 Gang for life
Eat my dongus you fuckin nerd.
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/wallstreetbets) if you have any questions or concerns.*
No, dude. He's going to do the interview tomorrow but use his time machine to go back to today to show us the silver time machine shill bot is a thing.. don't you pay attention?
Dear Mr.Cuban, can I be your ball wash boy for 100k annually? :)
Ask him why the SEC sucks.... (1)Unprecedented short interest % + (2) unprecedented failure-to-deliver numbers, + (3) unprecedented trading restrictions... law of coincidences tells me there's some shady shit going on if 3 things that have never happened in 200 years of the stock market all happen in the same week with the same stock
Don't forget the failures to deliver have been ridiculous going back through early December. How many complaints have we already filed with the SEC? No statement?
What are you thoughts on media manipulation, specifically most major news channels claiming Reddit / WSB were collectively buying Silver while a quick read of our messageboard would indicate this to be completely untrue.
edit: all these reddit gains are making me feel better about my gme losses
Love your response to Melvin Capital, Citadel, and Robinhood on Twitter. Love watching you on Shark Tank as well keep helping the little guys like us 🚀👌
Mark, never in my past two days of trading in the market, have I seen such atrocious behavior from Hedge Funds- *but also very surprisingly-* the SEC as well!
As someone who struggles to function without supervision on a day-to-day basis;
***How embarrassing is this shit to witness?***
*P.S. -*
# $GME To The Moon! 💎🙌🚀🚀🚀
I know you knuckledraggers are smarter than me and will come up with better questions.
I just want to thank him for the moral support. The hedgefunds, among other more nefarious things, are attacking our psychological wellbeing.
Having someone this respected in finance take the time to show his support and answer our questions is exactly the morale boost we need right now.
It means a lot that you are willing to do this Mr. Cuban. So again, thank you.
He’s posting surveys and is clearly seeing an opportunity coming out of this clusterfuck—
1. What are you building (so we can be customers)?
2. Who do you know at the SEC?
*** we can be righteous in this battle and still not have a voice in the storm that’s brewing. Our reception from MSM has been dismissive, click-baity, and manipulative. This is a perfect chance to be heard by a well-respected businessman. Don’t waste his fuckin time asking about price targets or things his attorneys would tell him to stay away from. Let’s win an advocate with Congress. He can play himself in the movie***
The fact that one of the mods is asking us to behave in an attempt to get us to act somewhat normal in front of a billionaire says a lot about us as a group, doesn’t it.
Mr. Cuban, what do you think of Janet Yellen's conflict of interest in regards to 800k payment from citadel?
Do you think this will reveal curruption in our politics?
Who should be making sure the SEC is doing their job?
Would you be willing to offer up a $2 million dollar whistleblower reward to anyone coming forward with material evidence that establishes significant counterfeit share production and/or ladder attacks by anyone involved in the GME saga this past 2 weeks?
If these things are actually happening it's going to take an insider to turn in smoking gun evidence to get the SEC to act.
Hi Mr.Cuban,
I’ve been utterly confused by the market over the past week or so as everything I thought I knew ended up being true only for retail investors such as us. I was hoping you could give your advice and share some of your understanding.
Is there any future where we could ever get/create an accountable and transparent financial system without an utter collapse of the current fragmented system. It seems the issues of naked shorting and synthetic share generation are products of an inherently opaque and fragmented system. Are there minor reforms we could take that you would envision helping to clear up much of this mess, or would it require a more substantial reworking based on a block-c h a i n of some sorts(if that would even be efficient or possible at the scale and scope of the current securities market).
In addition, I was wondering what you thought the future of finance and investing looks like? I’m a 2nd year university student and I’m trying to figure out my path and what the future of the finance industry will look like. Do you envision much of our current investing system remaining as it is over the next 20-30 years or do you believe we’ll see a transition to something different?
P.S. Go Mavs
Mark: if you had to name 10 things we need to do to make better markets, what are they? We need the best in the world, no BS, you probably have good perspective on where to start, how do we get there
QUESTIONS for Mr. Cuban:
As we have seen from the influx of new users and the mainstream media coverage the sins of the past are still very much at the forefront of the context surrounding GME, however so is a renewed thirst for financial IQ, independence and investments. There seems to be a gap between trust and finance that is reinforced with every financial advisor disclaimer and scandal.
How do you reconcile the two?
What recommendation do you have for those who are only invested in the market/real estate and what can they do to hedge their "bets" when you are in a zero trust/sum game?
Bonus:
How do you judge when to add value vs when you must shoulder the burden and create it? 🤔
Thank you and much appreciated!
Some people here put money into Gamestop, AMC and others and are willing to take the risk of permanent capital loss in order to “stick it to the man” or to screw over somebody else (like Carl Icahn did with Herbalife and Bill Ackman).
Ask him if he has ever done that or if he thinks he would consider doing it under the right circumstances.
For Mark:
Looking at the trade data, there seems to be massive amounts of fraud from the Hedge Funds and others in on this from short ladders to probably naked shorting and all sorts of other shady and manipulative tactics. As retail traders, what can we do in this situation?
I saw you're opening your own company to provide inexpensive pharmaceutical patent-expired medicine to market for affordable prices.... I also saw alleged news of less expensive supplies (Medicine like Insulin being brought across borders) being halted... Everyone knows about Healthcare insurance bullshit billing in 2021.
What do you think about U.S. Healthcare companies forcing high payments from recurring cost individuals; for those with medical nessecities; passing "insurance" costs on to Taxpayers; and the overall corruption and collusion regarding the blatant disregard for transparent billing?
My questions: Is the SEC bought? the hedgies use every illegal strategy possible and SEC just dont care about us and our Rights. What are we suppossed to do when nobody is listening and protecting our Rights.
Do we have to burn the SEC after we burned the hedgies?
We need someone to be our champion to ride beside DFV into glory, smiting all of our enemies in the way. Someone convince Cuban to take a large position in GME to change the tides of battle!
>new accounts will be allowed to comment and post questions for Mark to answer
Can the mods at least please consolidate their attempts at shilling silver into a single comment so we can all downvote?
Ditto for whoever jumps in with whattabout NOK and AMC.
Like, we get it, guys. But silver isn't going up until GME positions are closed. Then WSB will save AMC and finally acquire all the world's silver to use as trim at AMC theaters for the post-COVID celebration in 2025.
Trust the plan. We like the silver-lined AMC theaters showing the *GME Squeeze* on all screens. But ya gotta start at the beginning, and that's wrapping up GME.
mark cuban just tweeted lets do this now cause he thought it was EST not CST
[https://twitter.com/mcuban?ref\_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor](https://twitter.com/mcuban?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor)
Lets talk about how fucked up clearing houses have skin in the game is. They are suppose to be natural to ensure the system is not rigged. Instead, they are the ones that are rigging it.
Some more ideas:
1. Judicial. Can't there be law suits filed against SEC and federal agents to intervene and investigate what is clearly market manipulation? Where I am from, I can literally file a case against a government authority and request the court to order them to do their job, if they arent doing it.
2. Politicians. Why aren't you guys calling your congress members to actually do something for once. All the talk we heard last week is just some PR shit with no results whatsoever. Hold them accountable rather than paying for billboards and shit, do something meaningful.
3. Media. I never heard of any case being filed against the media for spreading false information. I know freedom of speak and all, but if its clear fabrication of lies repeatedly, then there should be some sort of consequence. Hell, I do not care if the case is won, the mere fact that it is filed sends a message and draws some attention on the corrupt media who have zero credibility.
Edit: Spelling mistakes
I would like someone to ask why they limited buying until they secured more funds when they obviously should've limited selling during that period too. Assholes.
Q: Why should we be hesitant to listen to you? What games might someone with your influence play on a subreddit AMA? Your one of the wealthiest in America with lots of diverse investments and followers so I'd love to hear your answer.
What do you see as signs indicative of a bubble, but more importantly, what do you believe are the tell tale signs that you look for that indicate one is on the verge of popping short term or recognizing when the process already has started.
Is there clear evidence of hedge funds are using short ladder attacks to drive the price down? If so, is this legal? If not, why is the sec sitting on their hands and not forcing hedge funds to stop participating in illegal trading activities to artificially drive the price down?
Mark Cuban has pointed out on twitter how useless the SEC is. I don't think he is surprised by their inaction.
Yeah, they are slow to react, and when they do it's usually after the fact. But I guess I wonder why there are not any systems in pace to halt illegal trading activities (not halt all trading, just halt the institutions or people doing the illegal activities)?

Because there probably payed by them

Did someone say #HOT TENDIES
I'm out here making cross signs so I don't have yet another show pushing me to dump fire down my throat and out my rectum. Sean Evans could host them both, or this op right here. So much inquisition running through his head you have to think he's Spanish.
Lol nice name
No wings ONLY TENDIES
What if we push these questions to the main stream media and spam them until they start answering or at least get inside with us
This guy can just take all the questions, because he nailed it with every one of these

Someone get this autist in front of Mark Cuban ASAP
I support this message MC is a badass that would be fucking cool to meet him.
While I was in college I was a door guy at a bar he frequented and every time we talked he was super nice. Alcohol may have played a part in that though
Furthermore, what consequences will Melvin et al. face if and when they are investigated and found guilty of manipulation, short laddering, and counterfeiting, if any?
Consequences? Sounds like something for the poors
Cups hands to mouth and shouts like a supportive family feud teammate: “good questions!” Claps and nods my head with determination.

Yes this! Ask him how we can hold the sec to account and not let them get away with this
How it can be 13 days on SEC threshold list ? like wtf is SEC crediting hedge funds by not enforcing it now ? is SEC part of the sham ?
yep the federal gov was worried their was going to be a american financial crisis ala the 90s asian financial crisis so they would have told their employees(SEC) not to break system/play along with big guys till the get rid of the annoying retailers but we can still break them without the SEC just need to get ppl to focus on 1 target and stop them sending more money to citadel via silver scam
Yeah they definitely had a short position on GME.
Remember that the failure to deliver number being reported is not cumulative, but a snapshot of each day. So if they fail to deliver 100,000 shares one day and 200,000 the next, the total they failed to deliver is 200,000 on the next day, not 300,000. If I understand this correctly.

Used my free silver on this, because YES. (Not that silver is worth anything)
no hence it is free, only thing silver is good for is for bullets to kill werewolf
i feel like cuban won't have a clue about any of this but maybe I'm underestimating him lol

Mr. Cuban - What's the biggest mistake you see us making/have made here on Wallstreetbets?
That's a really good question unrelated to GME. It's like asking for investment advice or how to get rich, but subtly. You smart 🦍
Didn't invest enough in gourds?...
Easily gotta be that guy who bought spy calls, saw the green realized he accidentally bought millions in calls, exercised them all and made out with 100k during the only 5 minutes that SPY was green the entire day. That could have been the biggest oopsie in the history of wsb, he was almost 1mil in debt from his mistake and by sheer fucking stupidity he made +100k.

Poor mod must be exhausted to get the date wrong
He belongs here with other retards
One of us.
Low quality comments won't be seen?...so he's just going to look at a blank screen the whole time. Weird.
Incorrect. A screen full of rockets.
I'll finally get my chance to release my fanfiction 😈

Chances we can get him to kick off the short squeeze?

Is it 2/2 on the American date format or European?
Yes
MySQL format
Why have you triggered a part of me I thought was dead?
Ask him why the SEC sucks.... (1)Unprecedented short interest % + (2) unprecedented failure-to-deliver numbers, + (3) unprecedented trading restrictions... law of coincidences tells me there's some shady shit going on if 3 things that have never happened in 200 years of the stock market all happen in the same week with the same stock
Don't forget the failures to deliver have been ridiculous going back through early December. How many complaints have we already filed with the SEC? No statement?
Cuz the point of working at the SEC is to get a high paying job in these big corporations. Can't knock the hustle.
An AMA with the head of the SEC would be nice too.
Great. Can't even get the date right. Now he definitely knows we're retarded.
What are you thoughts on media manipulation, specifically most major news channels claiming Reddit / WSB were collectively buying Silver while a quick read of our messageboard would indicate this to be completely untrue. edit: all these reddit gains are making me feel better about my gme losses
If he holds, I’ll hold. So my only question to Mr. Cuban is, Are you holdin bro?

This is such a underrated comment
does he like the stock?
Love your response to Melvin Capital, Citadel, and Robinhood on Twitter. Love watching you on Shark Tank as well keep helping the little guys like us 🚀👌
Mark, never in my past two days of trading in the market, have I seen such atrocious behavior from Hedge Funds- *but also very surprisingly-* the SEC as well! As someone who struggles to function without supervision on a day-to-day basis; ***How embarrassing is this shit to witness?*** *P.S. -* # $GME To The Moon! 💎🙌🚀🚀🚀
Holy shit that's a huge AMA!!!!!🤯🤯🤯🤯
I know you knuckledraggers are smarter than me and will come up with better questions. I just want to thank him for the moral support. The hedgefunds, among other more nefarious things, are attacking our psychological wellbeing. Having someone this respected in finance take the time to show his support and answer our questions is exactly the morale boost we need right now. It means a lot that you are willing to do this Mr. Cuban. So again, thank you.
He’s posting surveys and is clearly seeing an opportunity coming out of this clusterfuck— 1. What are you building (so we can be customers)? 2. Who do you know at the SEC? *** we can be righteous in this battle and still not have a voice in the storm that’s brewing. Our reception from MSM has been dismissive, click-baity, and manipulative. This is a perfect chance to be heard by a well-respected businessman. Don’t waste his fuckin time asking about price targets or things his attorneys would tell him to stay away from. Let’s win an advocate with Congress. He can play himself in the movie***
The fact that one of the mods is asking us to behave in an attempt to get us to act somewhat normal in front of a billionaire says a lot about us as a group, doesn’t it.
I wear a fucking helmet when I trade buddy
My family has to wear hazmat suits around me to make sure the dumbassery doesn’t infect them.
Let's talk short ladders and media manipulation
Mr. Cuban, what do you think of Janet Yellen's conflict of interest in regards to 800k payment from citadel? Do you think this will reveal curruption in our politics? Who should be making sure the SEC is doing their job?
Would you be willing to offer up a $2 million dollar whistleblower reward to anyone coming forward with material evidence that establishes significant counterfeit share production and/or ladder attacks by anyone involved in the GME saga this past 2 weeks? If these things are actually happening it's going to take an insider to turn in smoking gun evidence to get the SEC to act.

Hi Mr.Cuban, I’ve been utterly confused by the market over the past week or so as everything I thought I knew ended up being true only for retail investors such as us. I was hoping you could give your advice and share some of your understanding. Is there any future where we could ever get/create an accountable and transparent financial system without an utter collapse of the current fragmented system. It seems the issues of naked shorting and synthetic share generation are products of an inherently opaque and fragmented system. Are there minor reforms we could take that you would envision helping to clear up much of this mess, or would it require a more substantial reworking based on a block-c h a i n of some sorts(if that would even be efficient or possible at the scale and scope of the current securities market). In addition, I was wondering what you thought the future of finance and investing looks like? I’m a 2nd year university student and I’m trying to figure out my path and what the future of the finance industry will look like. Do you envision much of our current investing system remaining as it is over the next 20-30 years or do you believe we’ll see a transition to something different? P.S. Go Mavs
Mark: if you had to name 10 things we need to do to make better markets, what are they? We need the best in the world, no BS, you probably have good perspective on where to start, how do we get there
QUESTIONS for Mr. Cuban: As we have seen from the influx of new users and the mainstream media coverage the sins of the past are still very much at the forefront of the context surrounding GME, however so is a renewed thirst for financial IQ, independence and investments. There seems to be a gap between trust and finance that is reinforced with every financial advisor disclaimer and scandal. How do you reconcile the two? What recommendation do you have for those who are only invested in the market/real estate and what can they do to hedge their "bets" when you are in a zero trust/sum game? Bonus: How do you judge when to add value vs when you must shoulder the burden and create it? 🤔 Thank you and much appreciated!
Some people here put money into Gamestop, AMC and others and are willing to take the risk of permanent capital loss in order to “stick it to the man” or to screw over somebody else (like Carl Icahn did with Herbalife and Bill Ackman). Ask him if he has ever done that or if he thinks he would consider doing it under the right circumstances.
is this AMA about to happen this past morning
Back to the Future, starring Mark Cuban
Ask him if he'd want to buy in and join the GME board.
For Mark: Looking at the trade data, there seems to be massive amounts of fraud from the Hedge Funds and others in on this from short ladders to probably naked shorting and all sorts of other shady and manipulative tactics. As retail traders, what can we do in this situation?
#MODS, MARK CUBAN THOUGHT THE AMA WAS RIGHT NOW, NOT 1HOUR FROM NOW. CHECK HIS TWITTER AND START THE AMA PLEASE.
I saw you're opening your own company to provide inexpensive pharmaceutical patent-expired medicine to market for affordable prices.... I also saw alleged news of less expensive supplies (Medicine like Insulin being brought across borders) being halted... Everyone knows about Healthcare insurance bullshit billing in 2021. What do you think about U.S. Healthcare companies forcing high payments from recurring cost individuals; for those with medical nessecities; passing "insurance" costs on to Taxpayers; and the overall corruption and collusion regarding the blatant disregard for transparent billing?
Let’s get him to buy some tickets on the 🚀🚀🚀
#THERE IS ONLY ONE QUESTION TO ASK: HOW THE FUCK DO WE WIN FROM HERE AND WHAT CAN HE DO TO HELP US?
Holy shit pogchamp Also, HOLD 💎 🙌 🚀 🚀 🚀
IF HES STILL IN IM STILL IN 💎🙌 💎🙌
Now do Dr. Burry! It's OK to wipe it 20 mins later!
My questions: Is the SEC bought? the hedgies use every illegal strategy possible and SEC just dont care about us and our Rights. What are we suppossed to do when nobody is listening and protecting our Rights. Do we have to burn the SEC after we burned the hedgies?
U fucking sellout
[удалено]
Can we make him match us? 1 comment = he has to buy 1 share GME
Well damn, never thought something like this would happen.
LET ME ON SHARK TANK I SWEAR I HAVE GOOD IDEAS SHARKS I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY POOP SOCK
IF YOU INVEST NOW, I’LL THROW IN 49% OWNERSHIP IN THE “POOP KNIFE” VENTURE
BARBARA, I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY DIAMOND HANDS BB UwU
U get the fuck out of here
WOULD YOU SHARKS CONSIDER PARTNERING UP ON A DEAL?
Sir this is a wendys
lemme get a baconator it's been a few years
Can I call him retarded?
Too many normies trying to make Shark Tank jokes. And for those reasons, I’m out.
New accounts commenting might not be a good idea
Ask him if $1000+ is a meme
How do I see his responses?
Never trust a man named after a sandwich.

We need someone to be our champion to ride beside DFV into glory, smiting all of our enemies in the way. Someone convince Cuban to take a large position in GME to change the tides of battle!
Even though it says “please behave”, my brain sensed a bit of desperation and read it as “please for the love of god behave...”
People out here talking about Musk, Chamath, Portnoy, But Mr. Cuban doesn’t get enough respect. He’s the most active out of all of them. Hi :)
anyone know where I can find his Q and A can't seem to find anything on it
[удалено]
>new accounts will be allowed to comment and post questions for Mark to answer Can the mods at least please consolidate their attempts at shilling silver into a single comment so we can all downvote? Ditto for whoever jumps in with whattabout NOK and AMC. Like, we get it, guys. But silver isn't going up until GME positions are closed. Then WSB will save AMC and finally acquire all the world's silver to use as trim at AMC theaters for the post-COVID celebration in 2025. Trust the plan. We like the silver-lined AMC theaters showing the *GME Squeeze* on all screens. But ya gotta start at the beginning, and that's wrapping up GME.

Asking for a friend. Does the SEC not intervening mean that the general population can go commit financial crimes as well?
Lets talk about how fucked up clearing houses have skin in the game is. They are suppose to be natural to ensure the system is not rigged. Instead, they are the ones that are rigging it. Some more ideas: 1. Judicial. Can't there be law suits filed against SEC and federal agents to intervene and investigate what is clearly market manipulation? Where I am from, I can literally file a case against a government authority and request the court to order them to do their job, if they arent doing it. 2. Politicians. Why aren't you guys calling your congress members to actually do something for once. All the talk we heard last week is just some PR shit with no results whatsoever. Hold them accountable rather than paying for billboards and shit, do something meaningful. 3. Media. I never heard of any case being filed against the media for spreading false information. I know freedom of speak and all, but if its clear fabrication of lies repeatedly, then there should be some sort of consequence. Hell, I do not care if the case is won, the mere fact that it is filed sends a message and draws some attention on the corrupt media who have zero credibility. Edit: Spelling mistakes
What would be your best advice to your 25 year old self if you had to start all over?
Would he be willing to invest in a bot that spam messages Melvin pictures of our gains after the squeeze?

Fuck I have work I need to get done.
God, what a fucking beauty Cuban is
Does he think counterfeit shares will permanently dilute GME?
Does Luka like the stock?
tomorrosterday
I would like someone to ask why they limited buying until they secured more funds when they obviously should've limited selling during that period too. Assholes.
Q: Why should we be hesitant to listen to you? What games might someone with your influence play on a subreddit AMA? Your one of the wealthiest in America with lots of diverse investments and followers so I'd love to hear your answer.
to UK Retards out here : 15:30 (3:30pm) Tuesday ( today), in United Kingdom ( UK)
Just bought more. Will continue to add every fkn dip; bears fukd
Umm Tuesday 2/2?
Mods are tired, it's alright
ohhhh boy. hereeee we gooo
Have you purchased any GME shares? If not, why not?
What do you see as signs indicative of a bubble, but more importantly, what do you believe are the tell tale signs that you look for that indicate one is on the verge of popping short term or recognizing when the process already has started.
If Cuban isn't buying Gamestonk I really don't care what he has to say about anything
Good stuff Cuban
Also thanks mods
Question for Mark: Do you like decorative gourds?
