"Reddit Invokes The Streisand Effect to Openly Invite r/WallStreetBets to Wreak Havoc on Their Stock Price."
I think they’re trying to get the SEC to solve their problems for them. I wonder how careful the WSB/Stonkers can be.
Maybe I'm just dumb, but what could the SEC actually do?
Accuse them of stock market manipulation, which is exactly what the hedge fund guys do constantly. But since the Reddit kids aren’t hedged managers with $100millions, they’ll get sucked.
Is feeding the trolls market manipulation?
