    Robinhood, Reddit, Gamestop, and You | 2X Wealth Group to the Sophisticated Goliaths Who Were Short These Stocks

    February 3, 2020 | 2X Wealth Group With a combined 50+ years of experience, Robinhood, Reddit, GameStop, 2X Wealth Group is committed to educating and You and empowering investors. We firmly believe financial The Making of a Financial Flash Mob literacy helps people make better decisions. Who doesn’t love the story of David’s triumph over Goliath? This past week a group of “small” investors made tremendous amounts of money (on paper at least) by buying stocks that were heavily shorted by large, sophisticated hedge funds. We explore what happened, factors that spurred the market disruption, the subsequent fallout still unfolding, and finally, what it all means going forward. What Happened? First, it’s important to understand three concepts - short selling, call options, and a short squeeze. If an investor wants to profit from a stock declining in value, they can short the stock. Most understand the concept of buying stock, but shorting is more complicated. Shorting involves selling a stock that you don’t own. So, how do you sell something that you don’t own? The answer is - you borrow the stock through your brokerage firm, and you must put up money to do so. The broker requires that you maintain a balance large enough to repurchase the borrowed stock at any time. Therein lies the risk. If you buy a stock, the most you can lose is the amount you paid. In other words, the value of your investment can only go to zero. If you short a stock, however, there is no limit to the amount you can lose.

    Foo Fighters Questa Sera in Anteprima Live Con Waiting on a War: in Uscita Il 5 Febbraio MEDICINE at MIDNIGHT È Già Disponibile in Pre Order

    Foo Fighters Questa Sera In Anteprima Live Con Waiting On A War: In uscita il 5 febbraio MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT è già disponibile in pre order. 14/01/2021 I FOO FIGHTERS Festeggiano il compleanno di Dave Grohl con “WAITING ON A WAR” nuovo singolo estratto dall’atteso album “MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT” In uscita il 5 febbraio e già disponibile in pre order Sulla scia di “No Son of Mine”, i Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear e Rami Jaffee) aggiungono un altro tassello di “Medicine at Midnight” (Roswell Records/RCA Records), con il nuovo singolo “Waiting on a War, già disponibile in digitale e da venerdì 22 gennaio in rotazione radiofonica. Il nuovo album “Medicine At Midnight”, in pre-order a questo link (https://foofighters.lnk.to/MedicineAtMidnight), uscirà il prossimo 5 febbraio in diverse versioni: digitale, CD e vinile. Prodotto da Greg Kurstin e dai Foo Fighters, registrato da Darrell Thorp e mixato da Mark “Spike” Stent, “Medicine At Midnight” racchiude in 37 minuti 9 tracce. Si tratta del decimo disco della band che quest’anno ha festeggiato 25 anni di carriera costellata da dozzine di Grammy, numerosi premi, riconoscimenti e concerti in tutto il mondo. In netto contrasto con la dichiarazione «final f*ck you to 2020» che accompagnava “No Son of Mine”, “Waiting on a War” è invece una maestosa opera melodica con un crescendo continuo che esplode nel finale. Questa sera, giovedì 14 gennaio, i Foo Fighters presenteranno in anteprima live “Waiting on a War” al Jimmy Kimmel Live! Dave Grohl ha raccontato il personale aneddoto che l’ha ispirato per la canzone: “Da bambino, cresciuto nei sobborghi di Washington DC, ho sempre avuto paura della guerra.
