Sorry. About what?
191
00:09:42,707 --> 00:09:43,834
GameStop.
192
00:09:43,834 --> 00:09:46,586

asymmetric opportunity in the market?
193

- A little.
194

- What was his argument?
- He didn't have one.
195
00:09:53,134 --> 00:09:55,720
- Well.
- He just said it was a reckless bet.
196

He said "you're putting your money
in the next Blockbuster."
197
00:09:58,098 --> 00:09:59,015
Enough. Fuck Briggsy.
198

Babe, you literally know more about
this damn company than you know about me.

It's true.

this company than I know about myself.

Uh, I've done a few of these now,

Uh, but today I'm gonna try something
a little different.

you guys have been leaving me by the way.

"Less cats." Okay. Great.

00:11:56,341 --> 00:11:59,970
Ah, like I was saying--
Uh, what was I saying?
222
00:11:59,970 --> 00:12:00,929
Ah, I'm gonna try...
223
00:12:00,929 --> 00:12:03,139
Oh, and here's one from Ballz.
224
00:12:03,139 --> 00:12:04,641
"Nerd."
225
00:12:04,641 --> 00:12:06,643
And nerd is in all capitals.

But okay, fair.

You know what?
231
00:12:18,029 --> 00:12:21,157
Thanks for the comments.
We're gonna come back to them at the end.
232
00:12:21,157 --> 00:12:22,450
Here's what I wanna talk about.
233
00:12:23,326 --> 00:12:26,579
Uh, I'm gonna pick a stock and
talk about why I think it's interesting.
234
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:28,540
And that stock is...
235
00:12:29,958 --> 00:12:31,960
GameStop. Uh...
236
00:12:32,752 --> 00:12:34,129
I know it's a polarizing stock
237
00:12:34,129 --> 00:12:36,631
and some of you probably gonna
tune out of the stream right now
238
00:12:36,631 --> 00:12:39,134
when you hear I'm bullish on GameStop.
But I am.
239
00:12:39,134 --> 00:12:43,221
You can see it is now the biggest position
by far in the Roaring Kitty portfolio.
240
00:12:43,221 --> 00:12:44,139
So...
241
00:12:44,139 --> 00:12:47,183
yeah, I think everyone else is crazy,
and I think I'm right.
242
00:12:47,183 --> 00:12:51,730
But I've been wrong plenty of times
in the past. So, uh...
243
00:12:51,730 --> 00:12:55,275
So there are a lot of aspects to this
bold thesis, a lot of moving parts,
244
00:12:55,275 --> 00:12:57,777
but I boil it down
to what I consider the three overs:
245
00:12:57,777 --> 00:13:00,113
The digital risks seem to me
to be overblown,
246
00:13:00,113 --> 00:13:01,573
the negative sentiment is overdone,
247
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:03,324
you can see it
with the huge short interest,
248
00:13:03,324 --> 00:13:05,243
and the value is overlooked.
249
00:13:05,243 --> 00:13:07,412
Wall Street just doesn't see it.
250
00:13:08,038 --> 00:13:09,205
Why?
251
00:13:09,205 --> 00:13:12,459
Mr. Market, why?
252
00:13:13,209 --> 00:13:15,962
The hedge funds are overlooking
the value in the company
253
00:13:15,962 --> 00:13:18,673
just like they overlook
the people who shop there.
254
00:13:18,673 --> 00:13:21,384
They assume most people download
games online now.
255
00:13:21,384 --> 00:13:25,722
But look, 25% of gamers
still buy new discs from GameStop,
256
00:13:25,722 --> 00:13:28,767
and 40% buy used games from the store.
257
00:13:28,767 --> 00:13:30,727
And the market's kinda forced
my hand here.
258
00:13:30,727 --> 00:13:33,688
What more can I say?
I just like the stock.

Oh, okay.
Who do you take investment advice from?
275

I don't have investments. And if I did,
I'd listen to, like, a banker.

[Jenny] Okay, fine.
285
00:14:34,124 --> 00:14:37,043
Wall Street is betting
that this company is gonna fail.
286
00:14:37,043 --> 00:14:38,628
It's called shorting.
287
00:14:38,628 --> 00:14:42,215
And if it fails, well,
then everybody loses their job,
288
00:14:42,215 --> 00:14:44,884
but these hedge fund assholes
make a shit ton of money.

for rich people to get richer.

00:24:23,129 --> 00:24:25,548
You're just bitter
he stole those analysts.
510
00:24:25,548 --> 00:24:27,591
You seen Citadel's projected revenue?
511
00:24:27,591 --> 00:24:29,802
$7 billion.
512
00:24:29,802 --> 00:24:32,430
That's, uh, double last year.
513
00:24:32,430 --> 00:24:34,557
Hoovering up all the stimulus checks.
514
00:24:34,557 --> 00:24:36,642
- They go straight from the retail traders
- Thank you.
515
00:24:36,642 --> 00:24:38,436
right into Kenny boy's pockets.
516
00:24:38,436 --> 00:24:42,606
The man just gets away with murder.
Look at what I just sent you.
517
00:24:50,281 --> 00:24:53,868
Is this a video of a man drinking
his own urine because a stock went up?

519
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,746
Where did you get this?
520
00:24:56,746 --> 00:24:58,706
My analysts sent it to me.
521
00:24:58,706 --> 00:25:03,878
They call themselves apes and r-words.
Retard, can they say that?
522
00:25:03,878 --> 00:25:08,007
Remarkably self-aware. They've hooked
into GameStop for whatever reason.
523
00:25:08,007 --> 00:25:09,759
They think it's funny, it seems.
524
00:25:09,759 --> 00:25:11,135
I think it's funny.
525
00:25:11,135 --> 00:25:12,845
I think they think it's a good investment.
526
00:25:12,845 --> 00:25:15,222
Retail traders always lose.
527
00:25:17,057 --> 00:25:19,185
We've actually been short GameStop
since 2014.
528
00:25:19,185 --> 00:25:24,231
The company is a complete disaster.
They've had six CEOs in two years.
529
00:25:25,232 --> 00:25:27,735
Guess these guys are ignoring
obvious secular market trends.
530
00:25:27,735 --> 00:25:30,863
Or they're...
the stupidest people on earth.
531
00:25:30,863 --> 00:25:33,324
You're shorting more right now,
aren't you?
532
00:25:33,324 --> 00:25:35,826
600,000 shares, maybe.
533
00:25:36,410 --> 00:25:38,037

534
00:25:38,037 --> 00:25:39,538

[automated voice] Listen up, retards,

00:25:50,716 --> 00:25:55,721
Melvin Capital has declared war on GME
by shorting the stock even more.
540
00:25:55,721 --> 00:25:59,809
This is our call to activate
diamond hands, my fellow warriors.
541
00:25:59,809 --> 00:26:04,814
We will not let the gay bears defeat us.
We are on a mission to the fucking moon.
542
00:26:04,814 --> 00:26:07,858
This is one that is bigger
than your personal gains.
543
00:26:07,858 --> 00:26:10,486
More than just tendies for a new Lambo.
544
00:26:10,486 --> 00:26:14,657
This is our chance to rise up together.
To stick it to the big man.
545
00:26:14,657 --> 00:26:16,909
Squeezing Melvin by the fucking balls
546
00:26:16,909 --> 00:26:19,829
with the collective power
of diamond handing autists.
547
00:26:20,412 --> 00:26:23,833
Wall Street Bets I thought were a bunch
of idiots just throwing money at a stock
548
00:26:23,833 --> 00:26:25,543
because they thought it was funny.
549
00:26:25,543 --> 00:26:26,877
I was wrong.
550
00:26:26,877 --> 00:26:29,421
Now I see what Wall Street Bets really is.
551
00:26:29,421 --> 00:26:32,466
- It is a revolution.
- This is one of those rare moments
552
00:26:32,466 --> 00:26:34,593
where Wall Street are the ones
getting screwed over.
553
00:26:34,593 --> 00:26:36,303
And when we decide we're hungry,
554
00:26:36,303 --> 00:26:38,764
there is very little
the rich can do to stop us
555
00:26:38,764 --> 00:26:40,933
- from beating them.
- It's a GameStop to stop the game.
556
00:26:40,933 --> 00:26:43,102
- Power to the people.
- I'm jerking off right now.

2020... See ya.

2020 has been a very rough year
for my family too.
564
00:27:01,871 --> 00:27:04,957
So this GameStop news
has been a bit of a bright spot.
565
00:27:04,957 --> 00:27:07,543
Uh, look at this, I mean, where it's at.

00:27:07,543 --> 00:27:11,255
It's a five bagger
from where it was over the summer.
567
00:27:11,255 --> 00:27:15,259
You don't often see a thesis
play out like this.
568
00:27:15,259 --> 00:27:16,343
So we gotta--
569
00:27:16,343 --> 00:27:18,971
We can't take it for granted, right?
We gotta appreciate it.
570
00:27:19,889 --> 00:27:22,308
Thank you, Santa. Right.
571
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:26,854
Uh, I wanted to say cheers all of you.

You're why I'm here in the first place.
573
00:27:29,773 --> 00:27:32,860
Uh, it's fun to talk about.
I mean, I figure,
574
00:27:32,860 --> 00:27:35,446
if I worked at a hedge fund,
I'd compare notes with my colleagues.
575
00:27:35,446 --> 00:27:38,032
But I don't.
I'm stuck at home like you guys. So...
576
00:27:38,032 --> 00:27:40,409
Uh, I believe in this stock.
577
00:27:40,409 --> 00:27:42,745
And I believe in this community.
578
00:27:43,412 --> 00:27:44,622
Um...
579
00:27:44,622 --> 00:27:49,501
I'll be honest, uh,
it's been kind of a shitty year.
580
00:27:50,753 --> 00:27:55,507
Uh, for a lot of people. Lotta people
lost people the past 12 months. I did too.

00:27:55,507 --> 00:27:57,760
Uh, my sister, Sara.

But it felt right to tell you.

Uh, we've been through so much together.

00:28:14,777 --> 00:28:17,905
You've made me feel a part of something,
something big.

from bag boy to general manager.
631

Then one of these Wall Street funds
came in, bought it,
632
00:31:03,028 --> 00:31:07,491
and vampire-sucked all the money out of it
and then declared bankruptcy.

that's exploded growth-wise,
but doesn't make any money.
678
00:33:29,549 --> 00:33:31,385
- We make money.
- [Nat] But how?
679
00:33:31,385 --> 00:33:34,388
- If you don't charge commission then...
- From interest on people's accounts.
680
00:33:34,388 --> 00:33:35,973
[Nat] But your users are mostly young.
681
00:33:35,973 --> 00:33:38,767
So, how much money can they
really be keeping in their account?
682
00:33:38,767 --> 00:33:40,394
There's also payment for order flow.
683
00:33:40,394 --> 00:33:41,311
What's that?
684
00:33:41,311 --> 00:33:44,189
We prefer the term "stock order routing."
685
00:33:44,189 --> 00:33:46,149
When you buy or sell a stock on our app,
686
00:33:46,149 --> 00:33:48,944
we send your order to market makers,
who process the order.
687
00:33:48,944 --> 00:33:51,321
They pay us a tiny rebate on every trade.
688
00:33:51,321 --> 00:33:53,115
- Tiny.
- But it adds up.
689
00:33:53,115 --> 00:33:55,450
We should really get back to how we...
started our company.
690
00:33:55,450 --> 00:33:56,952
What market maker do you work with?
691
00:33:56,952 --> 00:33:59,246
A few. Citadel Securities mostly.
692
00:33:59,246 --> 00:34:01,623
Ken Griffin's firm?
Isn't that a hedge fund?
693
00:34:01,623 --> 00:34:05,210
Well, Ken Griffin's hedge fund
is called Citadel.
694
00:34:05,210 --> 00:34:07,879
But Citadel Securities
is a completely different company.
695
00:34:07,879 --> 00:34:09,673
Also owned by Ken Griffin?
696
00:34:11,091 --> 00:34:12,175

Oh, yeah!
824
00:40:34,182 --> 00:40:36,810
[Colbert] Here's what's going on.
Late last year,
825
00:40:36,810 --> 00:40:41,481
hedge funds started shorting stock
in the retail store GameStop.
826
00:40:41,481 --> 00:40:45,068
Meaning they had bet against it
and needed it to drop in price
827
00:40:45,068 --> 00:40:48,863
for their investments to be successful.
Now unfortunately for the hedge funds,
828
00:40:48,863 --> 00:40:54,411
small investors started buying the stock
led by something called Wall Street Bets,
829
00:40:54,411 --> 00:40:58,081
a popular, juvenile,
foul-mouthed Reddit page.
830
00:40:58,081 --> 00:40:59,916
And when Wall Street Bets noticed
831
00:40:59,916 --> 00:41:03,753
that hedge funds had taken
a large short position in GameStop stock,
832
00:41:03,753 --> 00:41:06,423
they decided to punish
the Wall Street big boys
833
00:41:06,423 --> 00:41:09,259
and launched a coordinated buying spree.
834
00:41:09,884 --> 00:41:12,887
The revolutionaries on Reddit
are spanking Wall Street's ass.
835
00:41:12,887 --> 00:41:18,977
GameStop shares absolutely going nuts.
I think it was up over 70% at one point.

Okay, now, if you've been watching
this price action,
847
00:41:49,299 --> 00:41:50,467
this is what I'm talking about.
848
00:41:50,467 --> 00:41:52,552
Yeah, but you can really feel that panic
from Wall Street, right.
849
00:41:52,552 --> 00:41:54,929
When they... we're starting to feel
a little squeeze. Starting to feel it.
850
00:41:54,929 --> 00:41:56,473
You're starting to really feel
a little squeeze.
851
00:41:56,473 --> 00:41:59,267
I need a drink. I need a drink.
I know we all drinking tonight.
852
00:41:59,267 --> 00:42:00,810
We fucking did it!
853
00:42:00,810 --> 00:42:03,605
We started from the bottom
and now we're here!
854
00:42:03,605 --> 00:42:06,983
- ["I'd Do Anything for love" playing]
- Let's raise a glass
855
00:42:06,983 --> 00:42:10,904
to a great company
that's undervalued, cheers.
856
00:42:11,488 --> 00:42:15,116
Soon may the tendiemen come...
Show me the tendies. Show me the tendies.
857
00:42:15,116 --> 00:42:16,367
I got 'em right here.
858
00:42:16,367 --> 00:42:19,746
Show me the tendies. I just gotta...
I just gotta dip.
859
00:42:19,746 --> 00:42:22,457
I just gotta... I just gotta dip. Ah!
860
00:42:23,875 --> 00:42:24,709
Mmm.
861
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:27,545
♪ No way
And I would do... ♪
862
00:42:27,545 --> 00:42:30,381
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
863
00:42:30,381 --> 00:42:32,091
11 fucking million dollars?
864
00:42:32,091 --> 00:42:33,051
What the fuck!
865
00:42:33,051 --> 00:42:35,804
- Oh, language. The baby's here.
- What are you gonna do?
866
00:42:35,804 --> 00:42:38,097
Get a Ferrari? A Lambo?
867
00:42:38,097 --> 00:42:39,849
Caroline, you're gonna ask for
a big diamond, right?
868
00:42:39,849 --> 00:42:41,226
I have a diamond.
869
00:42:41,226 --> 00:42:43,686
Keith, you get a fucking diamond!
If I were you, I'd look like
870
00:42:43,686 --> 00:42:46,272
- DJ Khaled right now.
- Kev! It's not real.
871
00:42:46,272 --> 00:42:47,899
I mean, it's real, but it's just paper.
872
00:42:47,899 --> 00:42:50,985
Just on paper! You're gonna sell, right?
873
00:42:50,985 --> 00:42:52,278
- No!
- Maybe.
874
00:42:52,821 --> 00:42:55,532
I mean, I don't know. Uh...
875
00:42:55,532 --> 00:42:59,035
- We... we haven't talked about it.
- What the fuck is wrong with you?
876
00:42:59,035 --> 00:43:02,288
I'm riding Mom's bike every day
to Dorchester to drop off cheeseburgers
877
00:43:02,288 --> 00:43:03,748
because you won't let me use
your fucking car.
878
00:43:03,748 --> 00:43:05,917
And you're mister "I won't sell
and take millions of dollars."
879
00:43:05,917 --> 00:43:08,253
And, well, what you do with your life
is your choice.
880
00:43:08,253 --> 00:43:11,172
You think I wanted to get laid off
from Dick's during a global pandemic?
881
00:43:11,172 --> 00:43:14,384
I love those sneakers, man.
I loved that store. I love Dick's.
882
00:43:14,384 --> 00:43:17,470
- Mom's bike doesn't even have gears.
- We don't know if it's reached the top.
883
00:43:17,470 --> 00:43:20,390
The stock jumped like 23% yesterday.
884
00:43:20,390 --> 00:43:22,267
- Double from Friday's close.
- But he's right.
885
00:43:22,267 --> 00:43:24,644
I mean, 11 million dollars
is a lot of fucking dough.
886
00:43:24,644 --> 00:43:25,895
- Thank you!
- [Keith] Okay, yes,
887
00:43:25,895 --> 00:43:29,023
but since Ryan Cohen
joined the board, the...
888
00:43:29,023 --> 00:43:30,358
This fucking guy.
889
00:43:30,358 --> 00:43:32,777
...got a 2 billion market cap.
I mean, could it go pff? Yeah.
890
00:43:32,777 --> 00:43:35,738
But that's not what I'm seeing.
That's not what I'm seeing, Kev.
891
00:43:36,823 --> 00:43:38,575
Kev? You there?
892
00:43:41,202 --> 00:43:42,328
Did he hang up?
893
00:43:43,037 --> 00:43:44,372
Yeah.
894
00:43:44,956 --> 00:43:45,874
[groans]
895
00:43:54,883 --> 00:43:56,759
Fuck, I think hold.
896
00:43:56,759 --> 00:44:00,054
[pensive music playing]
897
00:44:00,054 --> 00:44:02,765
- [Chris] Girl, you gotta sell.
- [Jenny] I'm not selling.
898
00:44:02,765 --> 00:44:03,975
How much are you up?
899
00:44:03,975 --> 00:44:05,977
[Jenny] 58,000 and some change.
900
00:44:05,977 --> 00:44:08,438
[man speaking indistinctly]
901
00:44:08,438 --> 00:44:10,857
Baby girl, what the fuck?
902
00:44:10,857 --> 00:44:12,984
You need to get out while you can.
903
00:44:12,984 --> 00:44:15,653
- Don't be an idiot.
- You remember red headband guy.
904
00:44:15,653 --> 00:44:19,157
He's worth 11 million dollars.
And he's not selling.
905
00:44:19,157 --> 00:44:21,200
- No fucking way.
- [Jenny] Yes fucking way.
906
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,828
This is what I'm telling you.
Diamond hands.
907
00:44:24,996 --> 00:44:28,541
Diamond hands. You hold the line
no matter what the market does.
908
00:44:28,541 --> 00:44:29,959
No matter what Wall Street says.
909
00:44:29,959 --> 00:44:32,003
What happens
when everyone else sells first,
910
00:44:32,003 --> 00:44:34,756
and before you get out
you've lost all your money?
911
00:44:34,756 --> 00:44:36,507
[woman] Are there any volunteers?
912
00:44:36,507 --> 00:44:38,384
- [Jenny] I'm...
- [man] Anyone?
913
00:44:38,384 --> 00:44:40,595
- [Jenny] We're gonna hold the line.
- [woman] C'mon.
914
00:44:40,595 --> 00:44:42,722
- Someone has to go first.
- Okay, yeah. I'll do it.
915
00:44:48,102 --> 00:44:49,646
[man] Here we go everyone.
916
00:44:49,646 --> 00:44:52,649
The first Covid vaccine
at Pittsburgh Presbyterian.
917
00:44:52,649 --> 00:44:54,108
[Riri] Ah!
918
00:44:54,108 --> 00:44:55,568
Fuck! Fuck!
919
00:44:55,568 --> 00:44:59,572
Fuck! Guys, we need your help.
What should we do?
920
00:45:00,823 --> 00:45:04,661
So listen, my girl bought in under 20
and now it is over 60.
921
00:45:04,661 --> 00:45:06,579
So like, should she sell?
922
00:45:06,579 --> 00:45:08,873
On the one hand, she has principles.
923
00:45:09,916 --> 00:45:13,294
On the other,
she has 100k in student debt. So...
924
00:45:13,294 --> 00:45:16,047
One way you could think
about the comparison between
925
00:45:16,047 --> 00:45:18,675
Marxism and Utilitarian tradition
926
00:45:18,675 --> 00:45:22,387
is that they both have a micro story
and a macro story.
927
00:45:22,387 --> 00:45:24,764
When you think of Utilitarian tradition...
928
00:45:24,764 --> 00:45:29,185
The only thing that would convince her
to sell is if Roaring Kitty sold.
929
00:45:30,395 --> 00:45:32,814
So... Where my pussy at?
930
00:45:32,814 --> 00:45:35,900
[professor] You have the micro story
for the Pareto principle
931
00:45:35,900 --> 00:45:38,653
for how each individual action will go.
932
00:45:39,487 --> 00:45:40,738
But you also have a macro story.
933
00:45:40,738 --> 00:45:42,865
[over speakers]
Where my pussy at? Where my pussy at?
934
00:45:42,865 --> 00:45:45,034
- Where my pussy at?!
- [Harmony] Sorry.

- Where my pussy aaaaatttt?!
- [students laughing]
936
00:45:48,287 --> 00:45:49,831
[Harmony] I'm so sorry.
937
00:45:49,831 --> 00:45:53,209
Hey, hey, where my pussy at? Ha!
938
00:45:53,209 --> 00:45:56,087
- Where is my pussy at?
- It's not in here.

- wait, listen, hold on.

they will tell these escorts?"

00:49:47,401 --> 00:49:49,278
they halt trading on the stock
1013
00:49:49,278 --> 00:49:52,114
so the short sellers
can cover their positions.
1014
00:49:52,114 --> 00:49:53,783
Is that legal?
1015
00:49:53,783 --> 00:49:56,535
The founder had to declare bankruptcy. So...
1016
00:49:57,411 --> 00:49:58,913
it was all fine in the end.
1017
00:49:58,913 --> 00:50:01,457
And you knew all that or you looked it up?
1018
00:50:02,750 --> 00:50:04,710
Every fund manager knows that story.
1019
00:50:08,798 --> 00:50:10,174
You looked it up.
1020
00:50:12,009 --> 00:50:13,886
Double checked some numbers maybe.
1021
00:50:23,271 --> 00:50:26,190
[Steve Cohen]
Oh, do you see what's going on at GME?
1022
00:50:26,190 --> 00:50:28,484
- [Gabe] There's more of these idiots.
- [Steve] A lot more.
1023
00:50:28,484 --> 00:50:32,405
- [Gabe] They won't hold much longer.
- [Steve] Oh, Gabe, honey, they're holding.
1024
00:50:32,405 --> 00:50:34,490
It just crossed a hundred.
1025
00:50:34,490 --> 00:50:36,784
[tense, pensive music playing]
1026
00:50:36,784 --> 00:50:38,369
Gabe?
1027
00:50:38,369 --> 00:50:39,870
Where are you?
1028
00:50:44,292 --> 00:50:46,294
You should probably dial in.
1029
00:50:46,294 --> 00:50:47,920
Yeah, be on in one sec.
1030
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,631
[man on TV]
GameStop, extraordinary volatility today.
1031
00:50:50,631 --> 00:50:52,883
You know, we might want
to make this the stock of the day.
1032
00:50:52,883 --> 00:50:56,220
Now that it's gaining 103%.
That is volatility.
1033
00:50:56,220 --> 00:50:58,222
I will tell you,
I've never seen anything like it.
1034
00:50:58,222 --> 00:51:00,808
Um, I'm concerned about it deeply.
1035
00:51:00,808 --> 00:51:03,102
I'm calling it the ultimate short squeeze.
1036
00:51:03,102 --> 00:51:05,771
- How much money is being made...
- Holy fucking shit.
1037
00:51:05,771 --> 00:51:08,107
...now we're gonna talk about GameStop.
Those shares...
1038
00:51:08,107 --> 00:51:11,235
- nonstop earning about of 130% today.
- Holy fucking shit!
1039
00:51:11,235 --> 00:51:13,321
As bullish retail traders
frenetically buy shares.
1040
00:51:13,321 --> 00:51:14,238
Holy fucking shit!
1041
00:51:14,238 --> 00:51:15,614
Yo, holy shit!
1042
00:51:16,198 --> 00:51:17,992
- Shit balls.
- Holy shit!
1043
00:51:17,992 --> 00:51:19,702
[woman on TV]
You look at the chart for the month.
1044
00:51:19,702 --> 00:51:22,330
- It's up 220%.
- [Riri] Oh, fuck!
1045
00:51:22,913 --> 00:51:24,623
- Look there... It's crazy.
- Everything okay?
1046
00:51:24,623 --> 00:51:26,375
[Keith] Holy fucking shit!
1047
00:51:26,375 --> 00:51:27,585
Holy fucking shit!
1048
00:51:27,585 --> 00:51:31,255
...if you go short in some of these
elaborate options trades,
1049
00:51:31,255 --> 00:51:33,466
you can lose money to infinity.
1050
00:51:33,466 --> 00:51:37,136
[man on TV] GameStop now at 123
and change, another record high.
1051
00:51:37,136 --> 00:51:38,137
Holy fucking shit!
1052
00:51:38,137 --> 00:51:40,431
[man on TV] Completely disconnected
from the fundamentals.
1053
00:51:40,431 --> 00:51:43,517
And this is very much being driven
by retail investors.
1054
00:51:43,517 --> 00:51:45,311
Many of them trading on Robinhood.
1055
00:51:45,311 --> 00:51:48,189
When the music stops,
somebody is gonna be left without a seat.
1056
00:51:48,189 --> 00:51:49,899
This for casino money only.
1057
00:51:49,899 --> 00:51:51,942
They're literally putting the game
in GameStop.
1058
00:51:51,942 --> 00:51:53,986
...is the craziest I think I've ever seen.
1059
00:51:53,986 --> 00:51:57,823
True investors never heard of Reddit
a few years ago.
1060
00:51:57,823 --> 00:51:59,700
But for that to drive a short squeeze...
1061
00:51:59,700 --> 00:52:01,160
[man on TV] It is Wall Street Bets.
1062
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,913
It's worth going to the site
because it is incredibly compelling.
1063
00:52:03,913 --> 00:52:06,749
You may think it's froth,
but they are using arguments
1064
00:52:06,749 --> 00:52:08,793
that they think hold up under scrutiny.
1065
00:52:08,793 --> 00:52:11,295
- I just like the stock!
- [Harmony] I can't look.
1066
00:52:11,295 --> 00:52:13,506
- I can't look. I can't look.
- It's up another 4%.
1067
00:52:13,506 --> 00:52:15,883
I'm gonna have a fucking heart attack.
Should we sell?
1068
00:52:15,883 --> 00:52:17,760
And betray your boyfriend?
Absolutely not. No.
1069
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,762
- [man 1 on TV] The stock is up 581%.
- Maybe.
1070
00:52:19,762 --> 00:52:21,931
...they are being very specific:
1071
00:52:21,931 --> 00:52:23,224
- To break the shorts.
- Yes.
1072
00:52:23,224 --> 00:52:25,351
[man 2] I mean, what's going on
in GameStop right now
1073
00:52:25,351 --> 00:52:27,186
conceivably could take
a couple of firms out.
1074
00:52:27,186 --> 00:52:30,022
Hedge funds if they were
stupid enough to be short.
1075
00:52:30,022 --> 00:52:32,066
Babe, how much did we make today?
1076
00:52:33,526 --> 00:52:34,402
5 million.
1077
00:52:34,985 --> 00:52:36,487
[Caroline] And yesterday?
1078
00:52:36,487 --> 00:52:37,655
4 million.
1079
00:52:40,199 --> 00:52:41,033
Babe...
1080
00:52:41,742 --> 00:52:42,785
Yeah?
1081
00:52:43,744 --> 00:52:46,455
We're, like, really fucking rich.
1082
00:52:46,455 --> 00:52:49,750
[pensive music playing]
1083
00:52:53,129 --> 00:52:54,880
How much did we lose today?
1084
00:52:57,425 --> 00:52:58,300
A billion.
1085
00:53:00,928 --> 00:53:01,846
And yesterday?
1086
00:53:03,472 --> 00:53:04,473
A billion.
1087
00:53:08,519 --> 00:53:09,353
[groans]
1088
00:53:09,353 --> 00:53:12,148
Some news to bring you right now
is that Melvin Capital Management,
1089
00:53:12,148 --> 00:53:16,277
this is the hedge fund
that had shorted this company,
1090
00:53:16,277 --> 00:53:21,949
that had effectively been attacked
by an army of investors trying to push up
1091
00:53:21,949 --> 00:53:24,785
and press up the stock of GameStop.
1092
00:53:24,785 --> 00:53:27,371
They've taken a rather huge loss...
1093
00:53:27,371 --> 00:53:30,291
Sorry, if you could just
put your head up for a sec?
1094
00:53:30,958 --> 00:53:31,876
Thanks.
1095
00:53:32,376 --> 00:53:33,794
How long've you been down here?
1096
00:53:34,295 --> 00:53:35,129
A few months.
1097
00:53:36,589 --> 00:53:37,923
You like the weather?
1098
00:53:40,092 --> 00:53:43,554
Heat is nice. The humidity not as much.
1099
00:53:43,554 --> 00:53:45,389
I can see that. [laughs]
1100
00:53:45,389 --> 00:53:48,976
- Hm.
- All right, I think you're good to go.
1101
00:53:51,061 --> 00:53:54,064
[tense music playing]
1102
00:54:14,668 --> 00:54:16,587
- Hey!
- Hey, man.
1103
00:54:16,587 --> 00:54:18,422
- Hi.
- It's good to connect.
1104
00:54:18,422 --> 00:54:19,632
You too. Great to be here.
1105
00:54:19,632 --> 00:54:20,799
- Excited.
- I'm glad you are.
1106
00:54:20,799 --> 00:54:22,593
Listen, I want to get right to it.
1107
00:54:22,593 --> 00:54:25,471
From what I'm hearing,
you guys are bankrupt.
1108
00:54:27,223 --> 00:54:28,724
No! What? No.
1109
00:54:28,724 --> 00:54:31,810
'Cause the word on the street
is that you're drowning.
1110
00:54:31,810 --> 00:54:34,063
No, that's... That's crazy.
1111
00:54:34,063 --> 00:54:36,565
- We're doing great.
- You're on the record with that?
1112
00:54:37,149 --> 00:54:38,025
Obviously.
1113
00:54:38,025 --> 00:54:41,278
All right, man. Well, then, we're gonna
get the live feed up right now,
1114
00:54:41,278 --> 00:54:43,948
and then we're gonna get to you
right after this next advertising break.
1115
00:54:43,948 --> 00:54:45,783
Perfect, great. Yes, can't wait.
1116
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,122
All right, one more spot
and then you're gonna be up.
1117
00:54:52,122 --> 00:54:55,209
I really do think this is the right time
for you to communicate.
1118
00:54:55,209 --> 00:54:57,294
- Great, yes. Agreed.
- Great. We're gonna do it.
1119
00:54:57,294 --> 00:54:59,797
Address it all head on.
It's gonna be good.
1120
00:55:01,882 --> 00:55:04,051
- No.
- What? Gabe, we're on in 10 seconds.
1121
00:55:04,051 --> 00:55:05,344
I can't do this. I'm sorry.
1122
00:55:05,344 --> 00:55:06,262
Gabe, seriously.
1123
00:55:06,262 --> 00:55:08,013
- Bye, I'm terribly sorry.
- Seriously, c'mon.
1124
00:55:08,013 --> 00:55:10,099
- Good to see you. The pleasure's here.
- We're going on right now.
1125
00:55:16,605 --> 00:55:17,439
[Yaara] Babe,
1126
00:55:18,607 --> 00:55:19,775
what's the damage?
1127
00:55:39,712 --> 00:55:40,713
[exhales]
1128
00:55:40,713 --> 00:55:43,257
[tense music continues]
1129
00:55:46,176 --> 00:55:49,179
- [seagulls cawing]
- [cell phone ringing]
1130
00:55:52,099 --> 00:55:53,392
Let me guess, you need cash.
1131
00:55:53,392 --> 00:55:55,436
Didn't call Ken first, did you?
1132
00:55:55,436 --> 00:55:57,104
He had Phillips reach out.
1133
00:55:57,605 --> 00:55:58,981
How much did he offer?
1134
00:56:00,482 --> 00:56:01,942
I haven't called him back yet.
1135
00:56:01,942 --> 00:56:03,402
Well, how much do you need?
1136
00:56:03,402 --> 00:56:05,821
You know what? Don't answer that.
The number doesn't matter.
1137
00:56:05,821 --> 00:56:07,406
Whatever it is, I'd love to buy in.
1138
00:56:07,406 --> 00:56:09,491
Tell Ken to fill in the rest.
1139
00:56:09,491 --> 00:56:10,701
Prick.
1140
00:56:11,869 --> 00:56:13,370
[cell phone ringing]
1141
00:56:16,749 --> 00:56:17,791
- [Gabe] Hey, Ken.
- Hey.
1142
00:56:17,791 --> 00:56:20,919
Hi, um... So, I might need...
1143
00:56:21,837 --> 00:56:22,755
Uh...
1144
00:56:23,672 --> 00:56:24,673
A new investor.
1145
00:56:24,673 --> 00:56:25,966
Consider it done.
1146
00:56:25,966 --> 00:56:27,968
Just keep moving forward.
1147
00:56:27,968 --> 00:56:30,596
Don't think about
what Grandpa Melvin used to say.
1148
00:56:30,596 --> 00:56:31,930
Prick.
1149
00:56:33,807 --> 00:56:35,768
- Thank you.
- [man on TV] Both Citadel
1150
00:56:35,768 --> 00:56:39,480
- and Point72 have infused
- Poor guy.
1151
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:42,983
$3 billion into Melvin Capital
1152
00:56:42,983 --> 00:56:45,861
- to try to shore up...
- Another goddamn bailout.
1153
00:56:45,861 --> 00:56:47,571
Can you believe this crap?
1154
00:56:47,571 --> 00:56:48,781
Nobody bailed me out
1155
00:56:48,781 --> 00:56:51,784
when Richard left me alone
with two toddlers, a mortgage,
1156
00:56:51,784 --> 00:56:53,077
a shit car that never works.
1157
00:56:53,077 --> 00:56:54,828
You can say "shit" but we can't?
1158
00:56:54,828 --> 00:56:56,872
[Jenny]
It's just so damn unfair and you know it.
1159
00:56:56,872 --> 00:57:00,876
All we've done for the last year
is work our asses off helping people,
1160
00:57:00,876 --> 00:57:03,587
and all we've gotten is one $600 check.
1161
00:57:03,587 --> 00:57:06,632
This idiot effs up just about as bad
as anyone could eff,
1162
00:57:06,632 --> 00:57:09,677
and his friends come running in
with $3 billion.
1163
00:57:09,677 --> 00:57:11,929
That's why I keep telling you:
you're never gonna win.
1164
00:57:11,929 --> 00:57:14,515
Just take the money and do something nice.
Pay off your mortgage.
1165
00:57:14,515 --> 00:57:16,058
Get that one braces.
1166
00:57:16,642 --> 00:57:18,143
Look who's still holding.
1167
00:57:19,603 --> 00:57:21,605
If he's in, I'm in.
1168
00:57:21,605 --> 00:57:23,565
Yeah, he's still gonna need braces.
1169
00:57:23,565 --> 00:57:24,650
Your teeth are perfect.
1170
00:57:24,650 --> 00:57:27,903
So what? The stock's up $150.
How much higher is it gonna go?
1171
00:57:27,903 --> 00:57:30,197
We control the price now. Not Wall Street.
1172
00:57:30,197 --> 00:57:31,699
And no one on there is selling.
1173
00:57:31,699 --> 00:57:32,741
Shoes.
1174
00:57:32,741 --> 00:57:34,952
- Ugh. You're all so delusional.
- [Jenny] Maybe.
1175
00:57:34,952 --> 00:57:37,371
But look at what we managed to do
with these hedge funds.
1176
00:57:37,371 --> 00:57:38,997
If we keep driving up the price,
1177
00:57:38,997 --> 00:57:42,167
maybe we'll scare more of these guys
into closing out their shorts,
1178
00:57:42,167 --> 00:57:44,253
and then all of that bailout money...
1179
00:57:44,253 --> 00:57:45,671
- [Chris] Wait...
- becomes ours.
1180
00:57:45,671 --> 00:57:46,588
your screen name...
1181
00:57:47,381 --> 00:57:48,924
is Stonkmom?
1182
00:57:53,345 --> 00:57:54,346
- Hey!
- Help your mother.
1183
00:57:54,346 --> 00:57:56,849
- Why me and not Keith?
- Just shut up and do it, okay?
1184
00:57:56,849 --> 00:57:59,059
- Kev, take the potatoes.
- 'Cause you're rich now?
1185
00:57:59,059 --> 00:58:01,145
Mr. 23 million on paper but I won't sell.
1186
00:58:01,145 --> 00:58:03,397
- Kevin.
- Loser says what?
1187
00:58:04,398 --> 00:58:06,859
- What?
- Kevin, let Keith tell them.
1188
00:58:10,070 --> 00:58:10,946
Tell us what?
1189
00:58:12,573 --> 00:58:15,284
Oh, uh...
I was waiting to tell you in person.
1190
00:58:15,284 --> 00:58:18,412
But the, uh, stock we bet on,
GameStop, is up.
1191
00:58:18,412 --> 00:58:19,580
Ah, good.
1192
00:58:20,706 --> 00:58:23,167
- How much up?
- He's up 23 million, Pop.
1193
00:58:23,751 --> 00:58:24,752
[Steve] You're an asshole.
1194
00:58:24,752 --> 00:58:27,296
- Don't kid us.
- Uh, it's real.
1195
00:58:27,296 --> 00:58:29,965
Yeah, it's real.
And he's refusing to sell.
1196
00:58:31,842 --> 00:58:32,885
What is going on?
1197
00:58:33,927 --> 00:58:35,262
- You're pulling our leg.
- No.
1198
00:58:35,262 --> 00:58:37,181
Your son's a huge Internet celebrity now.
1199
00:58:37,181 --> 00:58:40,017
Millions of people including "Stonkmom"
thinks he's some like,
1200
00:58:40,017 --> 00:58:42,186
- I don't know, investment genius.
- No, he is a genius.
1201
00:58:42,186 --> 00:58:43,395
No, he's not.
1202
00:58:43,395 --> 00:58:45,147
You're up 23 million?
1203
00:58:46,148 --> 00:58:47,566
And you're not selling.
1204
00:58:49,193 --> 00:58:50,527
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
1205
00:58:50,527 --> 00:58:52,029
What the fuck is wrong with you?
1206
00:58:52,029 --> 00:58:54,364
Do you even know
how much $23 million is?
1207
00:58:54,364 --> 00:58:56,658
And you're just gonna let it ride?
What's the matter with you?
1208
00:58:56,658 --> 00:58:58,869
- I know what I'm doing, Dad.
- [Elaine] But why aren't you selling?
1209
00:58:58,869 --> 00:59:00,788
What, wait! Is this illegal?
Are you in trouble?
1210
00:59:00,788 --> 00:59:01,955
No. No, he's not in trouble.
1211
00:59:01,955 --> 00:59:03,040
- It's totally legal.
- Yeah.
1212
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,833
He's posting his balance sheet
on the Internet.
1213
00:59:04,833 --> 00:59:06,001
- What?
- [Keith] Hedge fund managers,
1214
00:59:06,001 --> 00:59:08,462
they go on CNBC all the time
to pump up the stock.
1215
00:59:08,462 --> 00:59:10,923
All I do is post my balance sheet
on Wall Street Bets
1216
00:59:10,923 --> 00:59:14,176
- after market close.
- You post your balance sheet?
1217
00:59:14,176 --> 00:59:15,344
Yeah, the same idiot
1218
00:59:15,344 --> 00:59:18,138
who left a fresh pair of Nikes out on
the bleachers for just anyone to take.
1219
00:59:18,138 --> 00:59:19,306
So you admit they were stolen!
1220
00:59:19,306 --> 00:59:20,933
- We gotta talk about this.
- You're a fuckin' moron.
1221
00:59:20,933 --> 00:59:22,392
- Least I won.
- What's the point of winning
1222
00:59:22,392 --> 00:59:23,727
if you let some dipshit steal the prize?
1223
00:59:23,727 --> 00:59:25,270
You would've broke a four
if you had the Zooms.
1224
00:59:25,270 --> 00:59:26,772
A four minute mile
isn't everything, Kevin.
1225
00:59:26,772 --> 00:59:28,649
Maybe we should get in touch
with Briggsy.
1226
00:59:28,649 --> 00:59:30,651
- You know, he works in finance.
- Yes.
1227
00:59:30,651 --> 00:59:32,861
You think Briggsy knows
more about this than Keith does?
1228
00:59:32,861 --> 00:59:34,905
Well, can you talk about why
you're putting your stocks
1229
00:59:34,905 --> 00:59:37,157
- in the Wall Street Journal?
- Wall Street Bets.
1230
00:59:37,157 --> 00:59:38,742
What if someone tries to rob you?
Kidnap the baby?
1231
00:59:38,742 --> 00:59:39,993
No one's gonna kidnap the baby.
1232
00:59:39,993 --> 00:59:41,870
- Nobody wants that baby, Mom.
- [Steve] I'm just saying,
1233
00:59:41,870 --> 00:59:43,163
that if we're gonna talk to somebody,
1234
00:59:43,163 --> 00:59:44,873
- you need to talk to Briggsy.
- [Elaine] Yes, honey.
1235
00:59:44,873 --> 00:59:46,458
- This is the point...
- Enough!
1236
00:59:47,543 --> 00:59:49,127
You guys, Keith has literally
1237
00:59:49,127 --> 00:59:51,421
poured his heart and his soul
into this for the past year.
1238
00:59:51,421 --> 00:59:52,798
He knows what he's doing.
1239
00:59:58,554 --> 01:00:01,056
I know it's been a tough time, Elaine.
1240
01:00:08,981 --> 01:00:10,065
You should still sell.
1241
01:00:12,484 --> 01:00:13,652
Think you should sell.
1242
01:00:15,779 --> 01:00:17,489
[professor speaking indistinctly]
1243
01:00:17,489 --> 01:00:19,783
And just fuck the principle
of the whole thing?
1244
01:00:19,783 --> 01:00:21,743
I don't like it any more than you do.
1245
01:00:21,743 --> 01:00:23,787
[tense, pensive music playing]
1246
01:00:37,092 --> 01:00:38,552
You really don't think
that he's fucking selling?
1247
01:00:38,552 --> 01:00:39,469
[Harmony] No!
1248
01:00:39,970 --> 01:00:40,804
Ladies.
1249
01:00:42,347 --> 01:00:43,181
Masks.
1250
01:00:46,727 --> 01:00:50,105
Kids are with their father for a few days.
So, I'm going to Florida.
1251
01:00:50,105 --> 01:00:52,858
You finally fucking sold.
Hallefuckin-lujah.
1252
01:00:52,858 --> 01:00:54,985
No, I'm putting it on my Visa.
1253
01:00:54,985 --> 01:00:56,069
You shitting me?
1254
01:00:56,069 --> 01:00:58,238
You're worth hundreds of thousands
of dollars in stock,
1255
01:00:58,238 --> 01:00:59,865
and you're amassing credit card debt.
1256
01:00:59,865 --> 01:01:01,867
You really are out of your mind.
1257
01:01:01,867 --> 01:01:05,871
No, babe, I'm all in. Diamond hand.
1258
01:01:05,871 --> 01:01:07,956
Did you know that Gabe Plotkin
gave an interview?
1259
01:01:07,956 --> 01:01:10,500
He's been getting death threats,
anti-Semitic messages
1260
01:01:10,500 --> 01:01:12,836
- from these WSB guys.
- It was ten comments.
1261
01:01:12,836 --> 01:01:15,756
There's always bad apples.
And the moderators deleted it right away.
1262
01:01:15,756 --> 01:01:17,841
[Chris] You're just gonna ride this thing
till zero?
1263
01:01:17,841 --> 01:01:20,052
No. I'm buying call options.
1264
01:01:20,052 --> 01:01:23,597
- That could go to 600 by tomorrow.
- Your kid is never getting braces.
1265
01:01:31,605 --> 01:01:34,149
[Marcos] There's 8 million people in there
and they're all holding.
1266
01:01:34,149 --> 01:01:35,275
It's only going to go up.
1267
01:01:35,275 --> 01:01:36,818
[in Spanish] It's a joke, Marcos.
1268
01:01:36,818 --> 01:01:38,862
But you're treating it
like it's real life.
1269
01:01:39,738 --> 01:01:40,572
Pops.
1270
01:01:42,783 --> 01:01:43,617
Look.
1271
01:01:44,660 --> 01:01:47,079
- This is real. Hold it. Look.
- [in English] Hey.
1272
01:01:47,079 --> 01:01:48,038
Aw, man.
1273
01:01:49,706 --> 01:01:51,416
8 million people is real.
1274
01:01:51,416 --> 01:01:53,085
[in Spanish] H-O-D-L.
1275
01:01:53,794 --> 01:01:57,255
8 million don't even know
how to spell "hold."
1276
01:01:57,255 --> 01:01:58,173
It's a joke.
1277
01:01:58,173 --> 01:02:00,926
- [woman speaks in Spanish] A corny joke.
- [in English] It's not funny.
1278
01:02:04,721 --> 01:02:05,555
Mom,
1279
01:02:06,890 --> 01:02:07,933
look.
1280
01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:10,560
I got $175,000 in stock right now.
1281
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:11,728
[in Spanish] What?
1282
01:02:11,728 --> 01:02:12,688
Like serious money,
1283
01:02:12,688 --> 01:02:15,774
like I could get you a house
and get you up out of here, kind of money.
1284
01:02:15,774 --> 01:02:16,942
Baby.
1285
01:02:16,942 --> 01:02:19,361
Where did you get the money to buy this?
1286
01:02:19,361 --> 01:02:20,445
[father] Uh-huh.
1287
01:02:20,445 --> 01:02:23,323
I bought call options, for cheap.
1288
01:02:23,323 --> 01:02:26,410
- And they hit.
- [in English] So now you're gonna sell?
1289
01:02:26,410 --> 01:02:27,828
Nah. No, I buy more.
1290
01:02:28,662 --> 01:02:30,497
[in Spanish] At this price!?
1291
01:02:30,497 --> 01:02:32,541
When they hit,
I'm gonna buy you a mansion.
1292
01:02:32,541 --> 01:02:33,625
It's gonna be crazy.
1293
01:02:33,625 --> 01:02:36,420
My son, I don't need a mansion.
1294
01:02:38,338 --> 01:02:39,715
Papi.
1295
01:02:40,090 --> 01:02:41,258
Be careful.
1296
01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:44,136
Don't get addicted to this, my son.
1297
01:02:44,136 --> 01:02:45,846
This can be like a drug.
1298
01:02:51,893 --> 01:02:56,648
Some breaking news right now
on what has turned into the soap opera
1299
01:02:56,648 --> 01:03:00,986
and, uh, saga of the markets right now.
And that is the story of GameStop.
1300
01:03:00,986 --> 01:03:03,780
A month ago today, it was trading
at about 20 bucks per share.
1301
01:03:03,780 --> 01:03:05,949
Two days ago, it was under $80.
1302
01:03:05,949 --> 01:03:09,369
Today, nearly $350 a share.
1303
01:03:09,369 --> 01:03:13,415
The GameStop stock frenzy even now
has the attention of the White House.
1304
01:03:13,415 --> 01:03:15,834
...our economic team
including Secretary Yellen and others
1305
01:03:15,834 --> 01:03:17,502
are monitoring the situation.
1306
01:03:17,502 --> 01:03:19,921
You're witnessing
the French Revolution of finance.
1307
01:03:19,921 --> 01:03:21,339
There is a rebellion aspect to it.
1308
01:03:21,339 --> 01:03:23,425
There is
an anti-establishment aspect to it.
1309
01:03:23,425 --> 01:03:25,635
I don't know if Wall Street's ever seen it
like this before.
1310
01:03:25,635 --> 01:03:27,220
- No. It's generational.
- We never have.
1311
01:03:27,220 --> 01:03:28,930
It's like generational injustices.
1312
01:03:28,930 --> 01:03:32,392
[man] This is like
little poor guys vs. rich guys.
1313
01:03:32,392 --> 01:03:35,270
- And poor guys are winning right now.
- ["Seven Nation Army" playing]
1314
01:03:35,270 --> 01:03:37,689
[woman] Fucking hold! If you're new here
and you're trying to make a profit,
1315
01:03:37,689 --> 01:03:39,691
- fuck off!
- Stop what you're doing, and listen up.
1316
01:03:39,691 --> 01:03:42,069
I own GameStop on Robinhood
and I am not selling.
1317
01:03:42,069 --> 01:03:45,781
Hold. All you need to do is hold.
Keep fucking holding.
1318
01:03:45,781 --> 01:03:49,493
Soon the Tendieman comes
to send our rocket to the sun.
1319
01:03:49,493 --> 01:03:52,746
See this right here is the human being
who's largely responsible
1320
01:03:52,746 --> 01:03:54,623
for all this GameStop stuff.
1321
01:03:54,623 --> 01:04:01,004
Just a pure specimen.
A God-like undefeatable creature.
1322
01:04:01,004 --> 01:04:04,633
This is what excellence looks like.
1323
01:04:04,633 --> 01:04:05,759
I just like the stock.
1324
01:04:05,759 --> 01:04:09,387
Yesterday he posted this,
that he's in profit, wait for it...
1325
01:04:10,388 --> 01:04:12,933
47 million.

- [man 1] What the fuck is happening?
- [tense music playing]
1327
01:04:16,645 --> 01:04:20,190
- [man 2] What the fuck?
- [students clamoring]
1328
01:04:20,190 --> 01:04:21,733
Hey, did you try a different browser?
1329
01:04:21,733 --> 01:04:24,027
- I plugged the browser.
- [James] Shit, we're fucked.
1330
01:04:25,195 --> 01:04:26,363
Bro, what the fuck?
1331
01:04:26,363 --> 01:04:28,490
- What the fuck, dude?
- I told you this shit is rigged.
1332
01:04:29,908 --> 01:04:31,034
What the fuck is going on?
1333
01:04:33,578 --> 01:04:34,788
I can't get it to load.
1334
01:04:37,457 --> 01:04:38,458
[cell phone chimes]
1335
01:04:41,253 --> 01:04:42,170
Fuck!
1336
01:04:46,466 --> 01:04:47,300
What?
1337
01:04:50,470 --> 01:04:52,264
They shut down Wall Street Bets.
1338
01:04:52,764 --> 01:04:55,767
- What?
-"Hateful and discriminatory content."
1339
01:04:55,767 --> 01:04:57,477
That stuff has always been on there.
1340
01:05:02,983 --> 01:05:04,317
That's weird.
1341
01:05:04,317 --> 01:05:05,318
No?
1342
01:05:06,361 --> 01:05:09,698
I mean, it's like they're trying
to stop people from talking to each other.
1343
01:05:09,698 --> 01:05:10,991
[buzzing]
1344
01:05:17,038 --> 01:05:18,206
Babe, are you gonna get that?
1345
01:05:18,206 --> 01:05:19,124
Yes.
1346
01:05:19,124 --> 01:05:20,041
Oh.
1347
01:05:22,169 --> 01:05:23,003
Hello?
1348
01:05:24,671 --> 01:05:27,632
Ah, yes, I am...
1349
01:05:28,133 --> 01:05:31,386
I am the Roaring Kitty
and Deep F-ing Value.
1350
01:05:33,180 --> 01:05:36,600
Ah, no, but nobody ever asked me.
1351
01:05:38,685 --> 01:05:40,020
Oh, okay.
1352
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:42,814
Sir, I just want to say
how grateful I am for this job
1353
01:05:42,814 --> 01:05:44,733
and how much it means
to me and my family.
1354
01:05:44,733 --> 01:05:47,152
I would never let a hobby jeopardize...
1355
01:05:48,862 --> 01:05:50,822
Okay. I understand.
1356
01:05:56,786 --> 01:05:59,247
- Yeah?
- It's MassMutual. They're...
1357
01:05:59,247 --> 01:06:02,667
getting calls from reporters "concerned"
about my "outside activities."
1358
01:06:02,667 --> 01:06:04,544
Was all this against the rules?
1359
01:06:04,544 --> 01:06:07,464
I wasn't...? Maybe now it is...
1360
01:06:07,464 --> 01:06:08,381
Okay.
1361
01:06:11,426 --> 01:06:12,969
Well, what was that call?
1362
01:06:14,596 --> 01:06:16,056
- Keith?
- It's okay.
1363
01:06:16,056 --> 01:06:17,265
What, are you going to lose your job?
1364
01:06:17,265 --> 01:06:18,183
- What?
- It's fine.
1365
01:06:19,309 --> 01:06:21,144
- They gave me a choice.
- Between what?
1366
01:06:21,144 --> 01:06:22,938
Between your job and Roaring Kitty?
1367
01:06:22,938 --> 01:06:24,856
- [baby crying over monitor]
- Uh...
1368
01:06:24,856 --> 01:06:27,734
- Resign or I'm fired.
- That's what he just said?
1369
01:06:27,734 --> 01:06:29,027
[crying continues]
1370
01:06:29,027 --> 01:06:29,945
I got it.
1371
01:06:32,239 --> 01:06:33,365
[Harmony]
Fuck it, Wall Street Bets is down,
1372
01:06:33,365 --> 01:06:34,282
I can't see Roaring Kitty's balance sheet.
1373
01:06:34,282 --> 01:06:35,200
Oh fuck.
1374
01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:36,451
I don't know what to do.
1375
01:06:36,952 --> 01:06:38,036
This could be the sell-off.
1376
01:06:38,036 --> 01:06:40,080
I really don't wanna do that.
1377
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,250
Well, me neither.
But you can't let it go to zero.
1378
01:06:44,125 --> 01:06:46,461
It's 150 grand. You need that money.
1379
01:06:46,461 --> 01:06:48,922
And nobody is gonna hold
if they can't see what he's doing.
1380
01:06:51,633 --> 01:06:53,093
Close your eyes and count to three.
1381
01:06:53,802 --> 01:06:54,636
One.
1382
01:06:56,638 --> 01:06:57,555
- Two.
- Two.
1383
01:06:58,765 --> 01:06:59,766
- Three.
- Three.
1384
01:07:03,436 --> 01:07:05,480
- ["Boss" blaring over speakers]
- Your phone's ringing.
1385
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,691
This is the sound of the world.
1386
01:07:07,691 --> 01:07:09,401
Your phone is ringing!
1387
01:07:09,401 --> 01:07:13,530
Oh, Robinhood. Yeah. It's an app.
1388
01:07:14,114 --> 01:07:15,407
It's on the phone.
1389
01:07:15,407 --> 01:07:17,784
- Yeah, no, your phone is ringing.
- Oh.
1390
01:07:18,827 --> 01:07:21,121
Yes...
1391
01:07:21,121 --> 01:07:23,999
♪ I'm a boss in a fucking dress... ♪
1392
01:07:23,999 --> 01:07:25,917
Slow down, Norm, what did you say?
1393
01:07:26,418 --> 01:07:30,839
The NSCC just sent us a file,
they want a deposit of 3 billion
1394
01:07:30,839 --> 01:07:32,549
to clear all the trades coming in.
1395
01:07:33,258 --> 01:07:34,551
Sorry.
1396
01:07:34,551 --> 01:07:35,635
Wait, who?
1397
01:07:35,635 --> 01:07:41,182
They're a subsidiary of the DTCC.
And they're requesting 3 billion.
1398
01:07:41,182 --> 01:07:46,146
Ah... Okay. Sorry, it's a little loud in
here. I thought you just said 3 billion.
1399
01:07:46,646 --> 01:07:47,689
I did!
1400
01:07:48,982 --> 01:07:51,693
- But we don't have 3 billion, Norm.
- That's correct.
1401
01:07:51,693 --> 01:07:54,738
We've only ever raised 2 billion
in the history of the company.
1402
01:07:55,613 --> 01:07:57,574
Holy fuck! What if we don't pay?
1403
01:07:57,574 --> 01:07:59,034
They shut us down.
1404
01:07:59,993 --> 01:08:02,996
The IPO, like, everything... poof.
1405
01:08:02,996 --> 01:08:05,874
Gretchen, Dan and I are going to
jump on a call with Citadel at 9.
1406
01:08:09,711 --> 01:08:12,756
Maybe this would be a good time
for me to chat with Ken Griffin.
1407
01:08:12,756 --> 01:08:15,467
Sure. We'll mention that.
1408
01:08:17,052 --> 01:08:18,345
I can't sleep.
1409
01:08:18,345 --> 01:08:19,387
Me neither.
1410
01:08:19,888 --> 01:08:21,181
I just feel sick!
1411
01:08:22,182 --> 01:08:23,767
We'll buy it back first thing.
1412
01:08:25,602 --> 01:08:27,020
Please shut up.
1413
01:08:38,323 --> 01:08:41,326
[tense, pensive music playing]
1414
01:08:41,868 --> 01:08:43,328
What the fuck.
1415
01:08:46,414 --> 01:08:47,540
Oh! What the fuck!
1416
01:08:48,583 --> 01:08:50,668
- What the fuck!
- Okay, let me try.
1417
01:08:51,753 --> 01:08:53,129
Is it frozen?
1418
01:08:58,385 --> 01:09:00,178
They cut off the buy option.
1419
01:09:00,887 --> 01:09:02,430
What?! That's fucking criminal.
1420
01:09:02,430 --> 01:09:03,723
[Vlad] I can't hear you, Baiju!
1421
01:09:03,723 --> 01:09:05,100
[Baiju] What the fuck did you do?
1422
01:09:05,100 --> 01:09:06,810
- Calm down.
- Me calm down?
1423
01:09:06,810 --> 01:09:08,395
You shut down trading on GameStop?
1424
01:09:08,395 --> 01:09:09,562
Not all trading.
1425
01:09:09,562 --> 01:09:10,730
Norm worked it out.
1426
01:09:10,730 --> 01:09:14,275
The DTCC agreed to lower the deposit
to 700 million
1427
01:09:14,275 --> 01:09:16,444
if we shut off buying,
and that's what I did.
1428
01:09:16,444 --> 01:09:18,488
- The Depository Trade Commission?
- [blender whirs]
1429
01:09:18,488 --> 01:09:20,740
They're like one degree away
from Ken Griffin.
1430
01:09:20,740 --> 01:09:22,951
- One more time, Baiju.
- [blender whirs]
1431
01:09:22,951 --> 01:09:23,952
...butt boys!
1432
01:09:25,954 --> 01:09:28,081
- What?
- It's not going to be okay.
1433
01:09:28,081 --> 01:09:29,332
You need to fix this...
1434
01:09:29,332 --> 01:09:30,959
Shh. I know, it's okay.
1435
01:09:31,835 --> 01:09:33,253
I did fix it, Baiju.
1436
01:09:35,463 --> 01:09:38,174
We've been watching shares
of GameStop all day long
1437
01:09:38,174 --> 01:09:41,845
after hitting a staggering high of $483.
1438
01:09:41,845 --> 01:09:44,806
The shares are now down to about 140.
1439
01:09:44,806 --> 01:09:47,767
Now, the best we can tell
is the Robinhood app
1440
01:09:47,767 --> 01:09:52,397
that seems to have triggered what really
has become a panic sell-off in this name.
1441
01:09:52,397 --> 01:09:57,026
And so if you're a retail investor
or a Reddit user and you've held,
1442
01:09:57,026 --> 01:09:59,779
well, you are feeling some serious pain
right now.
1443
01:10:00,989 --> 01:10:02,157
Oh God.
1444
01:10:03,616 --> 01:10:04,451
Fuck.
1445
01:10:04,451 --> 01:10:06,411
[man 1 on TV]
Now the criticism centered on Robinhood
1446
01:10:06,411 --> 01:10:10,373
for abandoning their followers here
in favor of helping those who had shorted
1447
01:10:10,373 --> 01:10:11,916
all these stocks in the first place.
1448
01:10:11,916 --> 01:10:14,377
[woman] I don't particularly like the move
on Robinhood today.
1449
01:10:14,377 --> 01:10:16,171
I'm talking to people this morning
that say,
1450
01:10:16,171 --> 01:10:18,047
"Okay, that is anti-capitalism.
1451
01:10:18,047 --> 01:10:19,549
- You can't do that."
- Fuck you, Robinhood!
1452
01:10:19,549 --> 01:10:24,262
[man 2] There's been some controversy
about Citadel and some vague accusations
1453
01:10:24,262 --> 01:10:27,432
that somehow Citadel may have been
involved in Robinhood's decision, Wolf,
1454
01:10:27,432 --> 01:10:30,894
to stop or restrict trading
in GameStop and other shorts...
1455
01:10:30,894 --> 01:10:31,936
[Yaara] Who is it from?
1456
01:10:31,936 --> 01:10:34,731
The Tendieman...?
1457
01:10:36,608 --> 01:10:37,525
Come back inside.
1458
01:10:37,525 --> 01:10:39,068
[man] Diamond fucking hands!
1459
01:10:41,237 --> 01:10:45,408
We all know how I feel about him.
I think he's a rat, a liar.
1460
01:10:45,408 --> 01:10:50,246
Okay, Vlad, you know everybody here
who's watching us hates your guts, right?
1461
01:10:51,247 --> 01:10:54,751
Thank you, Dave, that's, uh...
that's what I hear.
1462
01:10:54,751 --> 01:10:58,671
But I'm a really big fan of your show
and hopefully I can answer
1463
01:10:58,671 --> 01:11:00,798
- some of your questions.
- [man] Vlad, can you hear us?
1464
01:11:00,798 --> 01:11:03,801
- Vlad the stock impaler.
- Yes, I'm here... Hi.
1465
01:11:03,801 --> 01:11:05,929
Spill the beans, man,
what happened last week?
1466
01:11:05,929 --> 01:11:08,723
Why couldn't people buy GameStop shares?
1467
01:11:08,723 --> 01:11:10,642
The people demand an answer.
1468
01:11:10,642 --> 01:11:14,187
To give you some background,
I'm chief executive of Robinhood...
1469
01:11:14,187 --> 01:11:15,522
- Robbing executive.
- Yeah, we know that.
1470
01:11:15,522 --> 01:11:17,190
And I just want to say,
1471
01:11:17,190 --> 01:11:19,859
- we had no liquidity problem.
- Well, did something maybe shady
1472
01:11:19,859 --> 01:11:21,694
go down here?
Seems weird that you'd get a sudden
1473
01:11:21,694 --> 01:11:23,821
- 10 billion dollar demand... You know.
- Three, 3 billion...
1474
01:11:23,821 --> 01:11:26,032
- Okay, but 3 billion just suddenly,
- Yeah.
1475
01:11:26,032 --> 01:11:28,117
- out of nowhere and...
- Well, I wouldn't impute
1476
01:11:28,117 --> 01:11:31,246
any shadiness to any of this, um...
1477
01:11:31,246 --> 01:11:33,456
I don't have the full context, uh,
1478
01:11:33,456 --> 01:11:35,959
as to what was going on
with the NSCC to,
1479
01:11:35,959 --> 01:11:39,003
to, uh, make these calculations.
1480
01:11:39,003 --> 01:11:41,464
To what degree
are you beholden to Citadel?
1481
01:11:41,464 --> 01:11:44,842
I mean, like, basically,
if Citadel is unhappy, then what happens?
1482
01:11:44,842 --> 01:11:47,804
- [Vlad] It was a hard temperance.
- Is anyone holding you hostage right now?
1483
01:11:47,804 --> 01:11:48,721
Uh, no.
1484
01:11:48,721 --> 01:11:52,600
There's just no rational explanation
on why they would do what they did
1485
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:55,311
without outside pressure, interference.
1486
01:11:55,311 --> 01:11:57,981
And they basically cratered the stock
on purpose.
1487
01:11:57,981 --> 01:12:01,025
So, I just don't believe
anything that guy says.
1488
01:12:01,025 --> 01:12:03,403
I wanted to take a cold shower
after seeing him say that.
1489
01:12:03,403 --> 01:12:06,072
Robinhood is facing lawsuits,
we know that.
1490
01:12:06,072 --> 01:12:08,449
After halting trade, they are accused
1491
01:12:08,449 --> 01:12:10,618
- of rigging the market.
- When the big guys,
1492
01:12:10,618 --> 01:12:13,871
including one of your main investors
in your company started to lose,
1493
01:12:13,871 --> 01:12:16,541
you shut down the game
to starve the little guy.
1494
01:12:16,541 --> 01:12:19,544
They're stealing from the poor
and giving back to the rich.
1495
01:12:19,544 --> 01:12:22,922
They're robbing from the 'hood! Why?
1496
01:12:22,922 --> 01:12:25,967
- I want to be 100% clear,
- All of you guys deserve to burn in hell.
1497
01:12:25,967 --> 01:12:27,343
- this decision to...
- And go to jail.
1498
01:12:27,343 --> 01:12:28,469
restrict trade was not made
on the direction
1499
01:12:28,469 --> 01:12:29,721
I'm just trying to get my mom
out the 'hood.
1500
01:12:29,721 --> 01:12:32,515
- of Citadel or any market maker.
- What the fuck? Fuck you!
1501
01:12:32,515 --> 01:12:33,933
And your Mama Dukes,
you motherfucking fraud.
1502
01:12:33,933 --> 01:12:34,851
Fuck this guy.
1503
01:12:35,727 --> 01:12:38,229
This guy is just
an obfuscating piece of shit.
1504
01:12:38,229 --> 01:12:39,522
Fucker.
1505
01:12:39,522 --> 01:12:41,858
There's only one man
I wanna hear from right now.
1506
01:12:41,858 --> 01:12:44,485
And Wall Street Bets is down,
so it's crickets.
1507
01:12:44,485 --> 01:12:46,070
It's crickets out here.
1508
01:12:46,946 --> 01:12:48,072
Say it with me.
1509
01:12:48,573 --> 01:12:50,575
- Where my pussy at!
- Where my pussy at!
1510
01:12:51,284 --> 01:12:52,827
- [man 1] Mr. Gill!
- [man 2] Mr. Gill!
1511
01:12:53,620 --> 01:12:57,457
- Roaring Kitty, I fucking love you!
- Keith Gill!
1512
01:12:57,457 --> 01:12:59,208
- Keith Gill, please!
- Okay.
1513
01:12:59,208 --> 01:13:02,337
- Please.
- Oh, sorry, this is, like, my house, uh...
1514
01:13:02,337 --> 01:13:03,921
- You want my autograph?
- Yeah.
1515
01:13:04,839 --> 01:13:05,715
You've been served.
1516
01:13:08,801 --> 01:13:11,638
[man 3]
Hey, to the moon, baby! To the moon.
1517
01:13:11,638 --> 01:13:12,847
Holy shit.
1518
01:13:12,847 --> 01:13:14,724
[crowd clamoring]
1519
01:13:17,769 --> 01:13:21,606
Sorry to interrupt. We need to talk
about the GameStop situation.
1520
01:13:21,606 --> 01:13:22,982
I thought Mecane was handling it.
1521
01:13:22,982 --> 01:13:25,818
So did we. But the committee's
specifically requested you, sir.
1522
01:13:25,818 --> 01:13:28,029
If they want specifics,
they can have Mecane.
1523
01:13:28,738 --> 01:13:30,657
It's not a choice, unfortunately.
1524
01:13:34,869 --> 01:13:36,120
Shitballs.
1525
01:13:36,621 --> 01:13:38,915
[keyboard clacking]
1526
01:13:38,915 --> 01:13:39,874
[Caroline] Keith?
1527
01:13:41,417 --> 01:13:44,504
- A congressional subpoena.
- I never did anything illegal.
1528
01:13:44,504 --> 01:13:45,963
And I always had disclaimers...
1529
01:13:46,631 --> 01:13:48,841
Why would you have disclaimers
if you weren't worried?
1530
01:13:49,384 --> 01:13:51,803
They're standard practice, Caroline,
everyone has them.
1531
01:13:56,808 --> 01:13:57,642
Babe...
1532
01:14:01,187 --> 01:14:03,731
- the answer is not in your computer.
- Whoa!
1533
01:14:04,357 --> 01:14:08,319
There's a dozen reporters on our lawn!
You have to testify before Congress.
1534
01:14:08,986 --> 01:14:11,739
- The game has changed.
- I know. I hear you.
1535
01:14:11,739 --> 01:14:13,157
I don't think you do.
1536
01:14:18,705 --> 01:14:20,123
Oh, my God. We're...
1537
01:14:21,666 --> 01:14:23,000
We're gonna go to my mother's.
1538
01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,169
No, she has terrible Wi-Fi.
1539
01:14:25,169 --> 01:14:27,213
I'm not talking about you.
1540
01:14:27,213 --> 01:14:29,090
I'm talking about me and her.
1541
01:14:29,841 --> 01:14:31,384
You need to figure this out.
1542
01:14:44,564 --> 01:14:46,441
- Where are you going?
- To the track.
1543
01:14:46,441 --> 01:14:48,776
- You were just on the track.
- I'm going again.
1544
01:14:48,776 --> 01:14:51,654
[tense music playing]
1545
01:14:59,287 --> 01:15:01,706
Hi. Can I interest you in
some champagne or a mimosa?
1546
01:15:01,706 --> 01:15:04,000
- Is it free?
- It is when you sit up here.
1547
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,002
Well, there is a last time for everything.
1548
01:15:06,002 --> 01:15:07,503
Oh, you'll be back.
1549
01:15:07,503 --> 01:15:11,758
I had half a million in stocks last week,
but Wall Street cheated.
1550
01:15:12,258 --> 01:15:13,426
Surprise, surprise.
1551
01:15:15,219 --> 01:15:16,471
I could have cashed out.
1552
01:15:17,597 --> 01:15:19,390
I could have paid my mortgage.
1553
01:15:19,390 --> 01:15:21,058
Could have gotten my kid braces.
1554
01:15:21,058 --> 01:15:21,976
Got a new car.
1555
01:15:21,976 --> 01:15:23,728
Honey, I'm gonna get you
something stronger.
1556
01:15:23,728 --> 01:15:25,229
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
1557
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:32,487
[Kevin] Meow!
1558
01:15:32,487 --> 01:15:33,613
Kitty!
1559
01:15:33,613 --> 01:15:36,324
You know you can't just eat other people's
food. They do reviews, right?
1560
01:15:36,324 --> 01:15:37,366
Very funny.
1561
01:15:37,366 --> 01:15:38,284
Here.
1562
01:15:38,868 --> 01:15:40,161
What's this?
1563
01:15:40,161 --> 01:15:41,621
Look, they were on sale, all right,
1564
01:15:41,621 --> 01:15:44,665
- before you get all emotional and shit.
- Holy shit, you fucking softy.
1565
01:15:44,665 --> 01:15:46,876
Who put you up to this? Caro? Ma?
1566
01:15:46,876 --> 01:15:48,669
No, Dad called me in tears,
1567
01:15:48,669 --> 01:15:50,505
said my big brother
needed some moral support.
1568
01:15:50,505 --> 01:15:52,965
Ah, fuck off. I can't.
1569
01:15:52,965 --> 01:15:55,051
C'mon, man.
Will you at least try 'em on? Please?
1570
01:15:55,051 --> 01:15:57,094
Try 'em. C'mon,
you're the richest man in Brockton,
1571
01:15:57,094 --> 01:15:59,680
- you dress like an asshole.
- I lost 15 million yesterday.
1572
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:01,641
And another 15 the day before that.
1573
01:16:01,641 --> 01:16:04,018
You're still the richest man in Brockton,
like, by far.
1574
01:16:04,685 --> 01:16:08,523
Bro, you got rich dudes
pissing in their pants right now.
1575
01:16:08,523 --> 01:16:11,317
I mean, c'mon, man, how many people
from Brockton High can say that?
1576
01:16:11,317 --> 01:16:12,485
This has gone crazy,
1577
01:16:12,485 --> 01:16:15,321
I got reporters hounding me
outside my house.
1578
01:16:15,321 --> 01:16:17,448
Yeah, man, me too.
They're coming after you.
1579
01:16:19,033 --> 01:16:20,743
You didn't talk to them, did you?
1580
01:16:20,743 --> 01:16:24,080
What do I look like? I said no.
I said give me 50 grand maybe.
1581
01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:25,164
Tell me you're kidding.
1582
01:16:25,164 --> 01:16:27,834
Well, if you give me 20, then maybe
we wouldn't have to deal with this shit.
1583
01:16:27,834 --> 01:16:28,876
The fuck is wrong with you!?
1584
01:16:28,876 --> 01:16:32,296
Kevin, I've just been subpoenaed
by Congress, man.
1585
01:16:32,296 --> 01:16:33,965
I do not have time for your bullshit.
1586
01:16:33,965 --> 01:16:36,509
- Oh, come off it, man!
- Seriously, asshole.
1587
01:16:36,509 --> 01:16:38,469
- Chill! It was a joke!
- Fuck!
1588
01:16:39,554 --> 01:16:41,013
[Keith sighs]
1589
01:16:43,015 --> 01:16:43,850
[groans]
1590
01:16:46,394 --> 01:16:47,228
I know.
1591
01:16:48,062 --> 01:16:48,938
Sorry.
1592
01:16:56,028 --> 01:16:58,197
We never used to fight this much.
1593
01:17:01,117 --> 01:17:03,077
- Sara.
- I miss her.
1594
01:17:03,703 --> 01:17:04,579
Me too.
1595
01:17:05,162 --> 01:17:06,581
She kept your ego in check.
1596
01:17:07,248 --> 01:17:09,417
Whole fuckin' world kept my ego in check.
1597
01:17:10,501 --> 01:17:13,170
What the fuck are you gonna tell
Congress, Keith? Huh?
1598
01:17:14,255 --> 01:17:16,299
Beg them not to send me to prison?
1599
01:17:18,551 --> 01:17:19,385
Hey...
1600
01:17:20,136 --> 01:17:24,265
Hey, do you remember back at Stonehill
when they dared me to run that mile naked?
1601
01:17:24,765 --> 01:17:26,475
Yeah, there was a crazy storm that night.
1602
01:17:26,475 --> 01:17:28,185
- You dumb shit.
- Fuck you, man.
1603
01:17:28,185 --> 01:17:30,605
That was dope, man.
I'm a legend over there.
1604
01:17:30,605 --> 01:17:31,856
Everybody remembers that!
1605
01:17:31,856 --> 01:17:32,982
- Okay.
- They do, man.
1606
01:17:32,982 --> 01:17:35,026
You don't think people remember
your 4-minute 3-second mile?
1607
01:17:35,026 --> 01:17:36,986
Oh... what is this, a pep talk?
1608
01:17:36,986 --> 01:17:38,487
Motherfucker, stop hiding.
1609
01:17:38,487 --> 01:17:42,033
Seriously. Okay, stop being all meek
and shit and running away.
1610
01:17:42,867 --> 01:17:45,411
What, you want me to run through
lightning with my dick out?
1611
01:17:45,411 --> 01:17:46,412
Yeah.
1612
01:17:46,412 --> 01:17:48,581
Please, exactly that.
1613
01:17:49,290 --> 01:17:51,584
Run through lightning with your dick out.
Fuck it.
1614
01:17:53,377 --> 01:17:56,380
[pensive music playing]
1615
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:01,260
You didn't go to your mom's?
1616
01:18:03,179 --> 01:18:04,388
You took the car.
1617
01:18:06,140 --> 01:18:08,225
How was the run? Did it clear your head?
1618
01:18:09,018 --> 01:18:10,561
Kev found me, brought me these.
1619
01:18:10,561 --> 01:18:13,064
Hm. You guys talked?
1620
01:18:13,564 --> 01:18:16,317
Yup, he, uh, told me to run naked.
1621
01:18:16,817 --> 01:18:18,402
- You ran naked?
- No.
1622
01:18:18,402 --> 01:18:22,573
Uh, it's a metaphor. He's saying
I gotta take this thing head on.
1623
01:18:23,658 --> 01:18:24,492
Well...
1624
01:18:30,081 --> 01:18:31,666
I'd kinda like to see you run naked.
1625
01:18:33,542 --> 01:18:35,294
[sprinkler spraying]
1626
01:18:35,294 --> 01:18:37,964
By the way, Wall Street Bets is back up.
1627
01:18:39,590 --> 01:18:40,967
The motherfucker held.
1628
01:18:41,717 --> 01:18:46,097
Holy shit! He lost 30 million,
and he still fucking held.
1629
01:18:49,475 --> 01:18:51,185
- Robinhood's back up.
- What?
1630
01:18:51,978 --> 01:18:54,397
- We gotta get back in.
- Where's the stock at right now?
1631
01:18:55,147 --> 01:18:56,148
109.
1632
01:18:56,649 --> 01:18:57,692
Are you sure?
1633
01:18:58,192 --> 01:19:00,945
That's like all of the money
that we made back into the stock.
1634
01:19:04,824 --> 01:19:07,326
Yeah. We can't let them
get away with this.
1635
01:19:09,412 --> 01:19:10,246
Fuck 'em.
1636
01:19:10,830 --> 01:19:12,039
If he's in, I'm in.
1637
01:19:12,915 --> 01:19:14,125
If he's in, I'm in.
1638
01:19:17,628 --> 01:19:18,629
Okay.
1639
01:19:20,297 --> 01:19:21,257
Fuck!
1640
01:19:23,426 --> 01:19:26,262
- [Harmony sighs, then laughs]
- [Riri yells]
1641
01:19:27,304 --> 01:19:31,934
The frenzy continues with retail investors
bidding back up GameStop.
1642
01:19:31,934 --> 01:19:34,103
- Meme stock mania is back.
- [woman] ...up more than 80%
1643
01:19:34,103 --> 01:19:36,647
as those message board traders
simply sent it higher.
1644
01:19:36,647 --> 01:19:38,315
[man] Stock volatility continuing,
1645
01:19:38,315 --> 01:19:41,193
it looks like this morning once again
GameStop are involved in
1646
01:19:41,193 --> 01:19:44,613
an ongoing battle between
retail investors and short sellers.
1647
01:19:44,613 --> 01:19:46,157
We're gonna have a lot more
on this story.
1648
01:19:46,157 --> 01:19:49,243
[woman] CEOs of Robinhood, Reddit,
Citadel and Melvin Capital.
1649
01:19:49,243 --> 01:19:52,663
Along with Keith Gill,
better known as Roaring Kitty
1650
01:19:52,663 --> 01:19:56,042
on social media, will be in the hot seat.
1651
01:19:56,042 --> 01:19:59,128
[tense music playing]
1652
01:20:00,504 --> 01:20:03,591
[Gabe] I'm here testifying today
far removed from my background.
1653
01:20:03,591 --> 01:20:06,677
I grew up in a middle-class family
in Portland, Maine.
1654
01:20:06,677 --> 01:20:08,345
My dad was a grocery store executive.
1655
01:20:08,345 --> 01:20:09,805
[woman] Maybe leave that part out.
1656
01:20:11,140 --> 01:20:12,224
The part about my dad?
1657
01:20:12,224 --> 01:20:13,350
The executive part.
1658
01:20:13,350 --> 01:20:14,935
Okay... okay.
1659
01:20:18,272 --> 01:20:22,735
I went to a public high school.
I studied hard and got into Northwestern.
1660
01:20:22,735 --> 01:20:24,820
- Just say "a good college."
- Upon...
1661
01:20:24,820 --> 01:20:26,405
I can't say I went to Northwestern?
1662
01:20:26,405 --> 01:20:28,282
- Too elite.
- Northwestern's too...
1663
01:20:28,949 --> 01:20:29,784
All right.
1664
01:20:33,788 --> 01:20:38,375
Upon graduation, I did not have a job.
Today, I'm married with four children.
1665
01:20:38,375 --> 01:20:40,628
Gabe, where do you plan on
doing your testimony?
1666
01:20:43,005 --> 01:20:45,758
- Here.
- In front of your wine collection?
1667
01:20:47,802 --> 01:20:50,971
I mean, this is... I don't have that big
of a wine collection honestly.
1668
01:20:50,971 --> 01:20:52,014
Yeah, it's huge.
1669
01:20:52,014 --> 01:20:53,933
[Keith]
Digital risks seem to be overblown.
1670
01:20:53,933 --> 01:20:56,435
Two, the negative sentiment is overdone.
1671
01:20:56,435 --> 01:21:00,231
- Three, the value...
- Maybe... here would be nice.
1672
01:21:03,526 --> 01:21:05,528
- Too many windows.
- Too many windows... Oh.
1673
01:21:05,528 --> 01:21:06,695
It's very bright.
1674
01:21:06,695 --> 01:21:09,865
- Yeah, ocean front's not a great idea.
- It's blue.
1675
01:21:09,865 --> 01:21:11,617
Yeah. Okay, I hadn't thought of that.
1676
01:21:11,617 --> 01:21:14,537
That, uh, yeah, downstairs there's more...
there's probably darker rooms.
1677
01:21:14,537 --> 01:21:16,705
[woman on TV] What a bandit.
Most of you know this guy,
1678
01:21:16,705 --> 01:21:18,332
who is the Roaring Kitty character,
1679
01:21:18,332 --> 01:21:19,792
- who was really pushing it.
- Holy shit.
1680
01:21:19,792 --> 01:21:21,836
- You know, voicing the information.
- Yo, Riri, our boy's on the news.
1681
01:21:21,836 --> 01:21:23,754
And what's the potentially systemic risk?
1682
01:21:23,754 --> 01:21:26,090
[man]
Those relationships in D.C. are strong.
1683
01:21:26,090 --> 01:21:30,219
The guys who run those hedge funds are
the guys who fund presidential campaigns.
1684
01:21:30,219 --> 01:21:32,179
- You know Roaring Kitties don't have
- That's a good point.
1685
01:21:32,179 --> 01:21:33,597
- that kind of influence,
- Gill is now being sued
1686
01:21:33,597 --> 01:21:34,682
- but the hedge fund managers do.
- for securities fraud
1687
01:21:34,682 --> 01:21:37,017
over his alleged role
in the GameStop rally.
1688
01:21:37,017 --> 01:21:39,895
Is Mr. Gill likely to appear,
and if he appears,
1689
01:21:39,895 --> 01:21:44,066
is he likely to talk
if he faces the potential of prosecution?
1690
01:21:44,066 --> 01:21:49,071
Fundamentals are based on three things:
One, digital risks are overblown.
1691
01:21:49,071 --> 01:21:50,990
Two, the negative sentiment is overdone.
1692
01:21:50,990 --> 01:21:52,199
And three...
1693
01:21:55,911 --> 01:21:56,745
Fuck.
1694
01:21:56,745 --> 01:21:58,956
- Ah, c'mon, shut up.
- [Keith] I know all this.
1695
01:21:58,956 --> 01:22:00,374
[Kevin laughing]
1696
01:22:00,374 --> 01:22:02,877
You guys, you guys, stop.
Stop, let's keep going.
1697
01:22:02,877 --> 01:22:04,003
All right, let's go again.
1698
01:22:04,003 --> 01:22:06,338
You're right, this is serious.
You can go to jail forever.
1699
01:22:06,338 --> 01:22:07,965
- A long time. Long, long time.
- All right. You ready?
1700
01:22:07,965 --> 01:22:09,925
You ready here we go. Back in the game.
1701
01:22:09,925 --> 01:22:13,095
- Mr. Gill. May I call you Mr. Gill, sir?
- It's my name.
1702
01:22:13,095 --> 01:22:15,598
[Kevin] Why the fuck wouldn't you be able
to call him Mr. Gill?
1703
01:22:15,598 --> 01:22:17,558
What were your intentions
with the YouTube videos
1704
01:22:17,558 --> 01:22:19,185
and your social media posts on GameStop?
1705
01:22:19,185 --> 01:22:20,769
- Yes.
- [Keith] Thank you, congresswoman.
1706
01:22:20,769 --> 01:22:22,271
[Caroline] You're welcome.
1707
01:22:22,271 --> 01:22:24,398
I developed a theory
that the company was undervalued
1708
01:22:24,398 --> 01:22:26,192
despite the significant short interest.
1709
01:22:26,192 --> 01:22:28,194
Oh, so you were aware
of the short interest.
1710
01:22:28,194 --> 01:22:30,779
It is public knowledge.
You can see it in the SEC filings.
1711
01:22:30,779 --> 01:22:33,115
[Briggsy] And your goal
was to break these shorts, yes?
1712
01:22:33,115 --> 01:22:36,744
To rally an online mob to artificially
push the price of GameStop soaring,
1713
01:22:36,744 --> 01:22:39,872
ah, "to the moon" as they say,
isn't that correct, Mr. Gill?
1714
01:22:39,872 --> 01:22:41,832
Objection, objection,
you're leading the witness.
1715
01:22:41,832 --> 01:22:42,917
- Kev...
- [Briggsy] Witness.
1716
01:22:42,917 --> 01:22:44,376
I yield my time to the chair.
1717
01:22:44,376 --> 01:22:46,837
You were hoping for the short squeeze,
weren't you, Mr. Gill?
1718
01:22:46,837 --> 01:22:48,005
You short squeezing bastard.
1719
01:22:48,005 --> 01:22:50,090
The short squeeze
was a marginal point of the thesis.
1720
01:22:50,090 --> 01:22:52,259
[Briggsy] Then why did you talk about it
in your videos all the time?
1721
01:22:52,259 --> 01:22:54,094
You did talk about it in your videos.
You talked about it a lot.
1722
01:22:54,094 --> 01:22:55,638
- You remember about the squeeze.
- Exactly.
1723
01:22:55,638 --> 01:22:56,847
You were like
"It's just a little squeeze."
1724
01:22:56,847 --> 01:22:57,848
[Briggsy] Exactly.
1725
01:22:57,848 --> 01:23:00,392
Are you really asking us to believe
that you weren't a leader
1726
01:23:00,392 --> 01:23:02,603
- to all these retail traders?
- You're fucked, buddy.
1727
01:23:02,603 --> 01:23:04,772
- My point of view...
- Asking. Yes or no?
1728
01:23:04,772 --> 01:23:06,273
- [Kevin] Yes or no?
- [Briggsy] Yes. So yes.
1729
01:23:06,273 --> 01:23:07,483
- Yes or no?
- You are admitting it. Yes.
1730
01:23:07,483 --> 01:23:08,901
Remember you with a cheap bottle
of champagne.
1731
01:23:08,901 --> 01:23:10,110
At any moment... Kevin!
1732
01:23:10,110 --> 01:23:11,153
- Kevin!
- Dunking tendies like a fucking--
1733
01:23:11,153 --> 01:23:12,071
What?
1734
01:23:13,364 --> 01:23:15,741
I'm running with my dick out.
1735
01:23:16,825 --> 01:23:18,202
Okay, why don't you just say that?
1736
01:23:18,202 --> 01:23:19,578
Okay, I'll stop.
1737
01:23:20,371 --> 01:23:25,251
All right. Mr. Gill, what exactly
about the fundamentals
1738
01:23:25,251 --> 01:23:28,545
- led you to build this bull case?
- [Briggsy] What the fuck's with the voice?
1739
01:23:28,545 --> 01:23:30,881
I don't know, I was trying to do AOC,
but it was flat.
1740
01:23:30,881 --> 01:23:32,174
[Briggsy]
I don't even think she's on the panel.
1741
01:23:32,174 --> 01:23:33,384
[Kevin] You shut the fuck up, Briggsy.
1742
01:23:33,384 --> 01:23:34,760
- I'll slap the shit out of you.
- [Briggsy] Is she on that panel?
1743
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:35,678
- [Kevin] I swear to God.
- [Briggsy] You're gonna slap me?
1744
01:23:35,678 --> 01:23:37,054
- [Kevin] Yeah, let's go.
- [Briggsy] You ready to go?
1745
01:23:37,054 --> 01:23:39,723
- Let's go.
- [Kevin] I've been waiting for this, dog.
1746
01:23:45,104 --> 01:23:48,107
[tense, pensive music playing]
1747
01:23:51,443 --> 01:23:52,528
[sighs]
1748
01:23:57,157 --> 01:23:57,992
Come here.
1749
01:24:06,750 --> 01:24:08,711
You're gonna be great.
1750
01:24:09,962 --> 01:24:12,673
If it goes bad, it's gonna be real bad.
1751
01:24:12,673 --> 01:24:14,466
Well, don't let it go bad.
1752
01:24:14,466 --> 01:24:18,721
[Waters] This hearing will be first
in a series of hearings by the committee
1753
01:24:18,721 --> 01:24:23,809
to examine the recent market volatility
involving GameStop.
1754
01:24:23,809 --> 01:24:28,397
I want to know how each
of the witnesses here today
1755
01:24:28,397 --> 01:24:30,566
- contributed to the historic...
- Gabe, can you sit up?
1756
01:24:30,566 --> 01:24:33,736
trading events in January.
1757
01:24:34,278 --> 01:24:36,530
This recent market volatility
1758
01:24:36,530 --> 01:24:41,118
has put a national spotlight
on institutional practices
1759
01:24:41,118 --> 01:24:42,786
by Wall Street firms.
1760
01:24:42,786 --> 01:24:46,457
And they have demonstrated
the enormous potential power
1761
01:24:46,457 --> 01:24:49,168
of social media in our markets.
1762
01:24:49,752 --> 01:24:53,297
We will hear firsthand from the witnesses
regarding these events.
1763
01:24:53,922 --> 01:24:58,093
The hearing will be an opportunity
for this committee to get the facts
1764
01:24:58,093 --> 01:25:01,347
about the role
each of the witnesses represent,
1765
01:25:01,347 --> 01:25:04,975
played in the events
we are examining today.
1766
01:25:04,975 --> 01:25:07,436
[Vargas] Well, now, Mr. Griffin,
if I could ask you this first question.
1767
01:25:07,436 --> 01:25:08,354
Of course.
1768
01:25:08,354 --> 01:25:10,522
How many people
are in the room with you?
1769
01:25:11,398 --> 01:25:12,441
[Ken] That's your question?
1770
01:25:12,441 --> 01:25:14,526
If you can just count how many
people are in the room with you.
1771
01:25:19,156 --> 01:25:22,659
There are five people,
including myself, in this room.
1772
01:25:22,659 --> 01:25:24,328
- [Vargas] Anyone in your organization...
- Such a prick.
1773
01:25:24,328 --> 01:25:26,538
since January 1st, contact Robinhood?
1774
01:25:26,538 --> 01:25:31,377
We of course talk to Robinhood routinely
in the ordinary course of business.
1775
01:25:31,377 --> 01:25:33,712
We manage a substantial portion
of their order flow.
1776
01:25:33,712 --> 01:25:36,090
But did you talk to them about restricting
1777
01:25:36,090 --> 01:25:40,302
or doing anything to prevent people
from buying GameStop?
1778
01:25:40,302 --> 01:25:43,097
I want to be perfectly clear.
1779
01:25:43,097 --> 01:25:46,809
We had no role in Robinhood's decision
1780
01:25:46,809 --> 01:25:49,061
- to limit trading in GameStop.
- Fuck you, Ken Griffin.
1781
01:25:49,061 --> 01:25:52,940
[Vargas] So, if we depose everyone
in your organization, we would find that?
1782
01:25:53,607 --> 01:25:54,525
That is correct.
1783
01:25:54,525 --> 01:25:57,152
Looks like a Disney Channel villain.
1784
01:25:57,152 --> 01:26:01,740
Mr. Plotkin, do you believe
that there is manipulation, distrust,
1785
01:26:01,740 --> 01:26:04,660
and overall inequality
within American finance?
1786
01:26:04,660 --> 01:26:06,829
My focus is on my company, Melvin...
1787
01:26:06,829 --> 01:26:08,497
[inaudible]
1788
01:26:08,497 --> 01:26:09,665
[Kevin] Hello?
1789
01:26:09,665 --> 01:26:11,375
You're on mute, dick!
1790
01:26:11,375 --> 01:26:13,001
Ah, I'm sorry, you're on mute.
1791
01:26:13,502 --> 01:26:14,628
[all laughing]
1792
01:26:17,214 --> 01:26:18,882
[woman] He just keeps going.
1793
01:26:18,882 --> 01:26:20,717
...my area of expertise.
1794
01:26:20,717 --> 01:26:24,471
You're still on mute. I haven't been able
to hear a word you said, unfortunately.
1795
01:26:24,471 --> 01:26:26,849
[Ocasio-Cortez] Mr. Tenev,
would you be willing to commit today
1796
01:26:26,849 --> 01:26:29,017
- to voluntarily pass on the proceeds...
- Oh. Marry me.
1797
01:26:29,017 --> 01:26:31,812
of the payment for order flow
to Robinhood customers?
1798
01:26:31,812 --> 01:26:34,356
Congresswoman, I appreciate that question.
1799
01:26:34,356 --> 01:26:38,569
When the statement you refer to was made,
it was before Robinhood forced
1800
01:26:38,569 --> 01:26:40,571
the entire industry to drop
1801
01:26:40,571 --> 01:26:42,281
- commissions and replicate our...
- I should take that as a no.
1802
01:26:42,281 --> 01:26:45,117
You're not willing to pass on
the proceeds of payment for order flow
1803
01:26:45,117 --> 01:26:46,076
to your customers?
1804
01:26:46,076 --> 01:26:48,787
- When the other brokers drop...
- I'm just talking about today.
1805
01:26:48,787 --> 01:26:49,997
- Asshole.
- I don't want to be rude.
1806
01:26:49,997 --> 01:26:51,373
I just have limited time,
1807
01:26:51,373 --> 01:26:55,377
but if removing the revenues that you make
from a payment for order flow
1808
01:26:55,377 --> 01:26:58,881
would cause the removal
of free commissions,
1809
01:26:58,881 --> 01:27:00,674
doesn't that mean that
trading on Robinhood
1810
01:27:00,674 --> 01:27:02,634
isn't actually free to begin with?
1811
01:27:02,634 --> 01:27:04,011
[woman] Good question.
1812
01:27:10,642 --> 01:27:12,895
[Waters] Thank you very much, Mr. Gill.
1813
01:27:12,895 --> 01:27:17,524
You are now recognized for five minutes
to present your oral testimony.
1814
01:27:19,526 --> 01:27:21,778
[inhales, then exhales]
1815
01:27:29,453 --> 01:27:31,914
Thank you, members of the committee.
1816
01:27:34,458 --> 01:27:37,753
I am happy to discuss my purchase
of GameStop shares
1817
01:27:38,337 --> 01:27:41,715
and my discussions of their fair value
on social media.
1818
01:27:42,549 --> 01:27:44,176
But before I do that,
1819
01:27:44,176 --> 01:27:46,094
a few things I am not:
1820
01:27:47,888 --> 01:27:49,097
I am not a cat.
1821
01:27:50,641 --> 01:27:52,893
- What did he say?
- [Kevin] He just said cat, Ma.
1822
01:27:52,893 --> 01:27:54,186
It's like a kitty thing.
1823
01:27:54,186 --> 01:27:56,605
Nor am I a hedge fund.
I do not have clients,
1824
01:27:56,605 --> 01:28:01,944
and I do not provide personalized
investment advice for fees or commissions.
1825
01:28:01,944 --> 01:28:04,029
I grew up in Brockton, Mass.
1826
01:28:04,780 --> 01:28:06,657
My family was not wealthy.
1827
01:28:06,657 --> 01:28:09,993
My father was a truck driver
and my mom a registered nurse.
1828
01:28:09,993 --> 01:28:12,204
- [Kevin] That's you, Ma!
- I was one of three kids
1829
01:28:12,204 --> 01:28:15,290
and the first in my family
to earn a four-year college degree
1830
01:28:15,290 --> 01:28:19,461
when I graduated from Stonehill College
in 2009.
1831
01:28:19,461 --> 01:28:21,588
That was not a good time
to be looking for a job.
1832
01:28:21,588 --> 01:28:24,091
From 2010-2017,
1833
01:28:24,091 --> 01:28:27,553
there were significant periods
when I was unemployed.
1834
01:28:27,553 --> 01:28:29,930
I took an interest in the stock market,
1835
01:28:29,930 --> 01:28:32,224
and even though I had very little money,
1836

I used those times to educate myself
and learn more about investing.
1837

Mr. Gill, I find it hard to believe

that happened to GameStop
with no inside information.
1839

Uh, I didn't predict it.
1840
01:28:45,821 --> 01:28:49,199
I honestly couldn't explain everything
that happened in January.
1841
01:28:49,199 --> 01:28:53,036
I've seen your videos. You honestly
couldn't recount to the committee
1842
01:28:53,036 --> 01:28:57,624
what caused every single up and down
of the stock in January?
1843
01:28:58,208 --> 01:28:59,334
I think you could.
1844
01:29:00,669 --> 01:29:04,047
I did follow the stock, uh, very closely,
1845
01:29:04,047 --> 01:29:07,676
but threshold lists, order flows,
halting purchases, according to the press,
1846
01:29:07,676 --> 01:29:09,636
these all had a material impact
on the stock.
1847
01:29:09,636 --> 01:29:12,306
Here's the thing: I have
a bit of experience with this stuff,
1848
01:29:12,306 --> 01:29:14,308
and even I barely understand
these matters.
1849
01:29:14,308 --> 01:29:18,186
It's alarming how little we all know
about the inner workings of the market.
1850
01:29:18,186 --> 01:29:20,897
Which is why I'm glad this committee
is examining what happened,
1851
01:29:20,897 --> 01:29:23,692
particularly with the exorbitant
short interest
1852
01:29:23,692 --> 01:29:26,653
as well as any potentially
manipulative shorting practices
1853
01:29:26,653 --> 01:29:30,824
and brokers' reported failures to
timely deliver shares and settle trades.

A lot of people feel the system is broken.
1856
01:29:36,330 --> 01:29:40,417
The whole idea of the stock market is to
be, like, kind of a fair playing field,
1857
01:29:40,417 --> 01:29:44,338
where if you're smart, maybe with a little
luck, you could make your fortune.
1858
01:29:45,130 --> 01:29:47,466
But, if it ever was that,
it's certainly not any more.
1859
01:29:48,550 --> 01:29:51,887
The big firms have such a big advantage,
in terms of technology and information
1860
01:29:51,887 --> 01:29:55,223
and just sheer wealth, there's no hope
for the little guy anymore.

01:30:02,814 --> 01:30:04,274

1864
01:30:04,983 --> 01:30:06,151
