We see people abusing their power to push their (mostly SJW) agenda as a part of the ethical concerns. And Gamergate can be about more than just ethics. I, personally, am in it for the luls.

Cellar Boxing!!

If you haven't read u/thabat 's DD on Cellar Boxing, I'd recommend doing so. It's worth it to get some background on this. LINK TO DD.

But the Smooth-Brain TLDR, is that this was the Naked Shorting Gameplan, but referred to as Cellar Boxing which was found in a forum back in 2004.

And remember the Whole ZOMBIE STOCKS thing ya?

Well maybe we have been missing the bigger picture here...

The theory was that Zombie Stocks were stocks that had been Naked Shorted / Cellar Boxed to death by Market Makers so that they could win the bankruptcy jackpot and never have to pay back the mass of shorts they had against the stocks...

But what if there is more to the story...

WHAT IF... NAKED SHORTING / CELLAR BOXING WAS JUST A NEW MORE ADVANCED WAY TO CREATE DISTRESSED COMPANIES THAT PRIVATE EQUITY FIRMS COULD THEN TAKE OVER FOR $0.10 ON THE DOLLAR AND DRIVE THEM INTO THE GROUND???

After Bain Capital and KKR took over.... the Profit First strategies kicked in and Toys R Us began its decline.

(Apologies about quality, old article)

As per this Nasdaq article, they state that:

However, there is little doubt that Toys "R" Us' management is trying to adapt its business model to accommodate pressure from the company's owners for greater profitability. ]

It is also understandable that the owners - Bain, KKR ( KKR

Bots are out in force suppressing the YouTube video of Charles Gradante. He gave us the truth.

https://youtu.be/OChaTm0To1U

Charles Gradante, hedge fund expert, Wall Street veteran, lays out in plain English exactly what happened in January and why. This sub has an active campaign of bots/shills/bad actors that are suppressing this as hard as they can. I expect this post will be downvotes but this needs to break through. We need people to watch this video.

Go to 8:15 and just listen.

When options volume got out of hand in January the hedge funds that were handing out IOU shares to apes on Robinhood and other platforms and who were not hedging their trades with collateral were forced to start hedging by buying calls and shares on GME and this is what caused the spike.

The SEC themselves admitted the spike was due to trade volume. THIS IS WHY THEY SHUT OFF THE BUY BUTTON AND BROKE THE LAW

THIS VIDEO GIVES US THE PLAYBOOK FOR A SQUEEZE AND FURTHER SUPPORTS THE FACT THAT KENNETH GRIFFIN LIED TO CONGRESS AND COLLUDED WITH ROBINHOOD TO DEFRAUD THE MARKETS

Cellar Boxing

Falls du u/thabat's DD ΓΌber Cellar Boxing noch nicht gelesen haben, empfehle ich dir, dies zu tun. Es lohnt sich, um etwas Hintergrundwissen zu bekommen.

Aber die Smooth-Brain TLDR, ist, dass dies der Naked Shorting Gameplan war, aber es wurde als Cellar Boxing, in einem Forum zurΓΌck im Jahr 2004 bezeichnet.

Und erinnerst du dich an die ganze ZOMBIE STOCKS Sache, ja?

Nun, vielleicht haben wir hier das grâßere Bild übersehen...

Die Theorie besagte, dass Zombie-Aktien, Aktien waren, die von den Market Makern mit Naked Shorting/ Cellar Boxing zu Tode geshortet wurden, so dass sie den Konkurs-Jackpot gewinnen konnten und nie die Masse der Short-Positionen, die sie gegen die Aktien hatten, zurΓΌckzahlen mussten...

Aber was ist, wenn mehr an der Geschichte dran ist...

WAS WENN... NACKTES LEERVERKAUFEN / KELLERBOXEN NUR EINE NEUE, FORTSCHRITTLICHERE METHODE WAR, UM NOTLEIDENDE UNTERNEHMEN ZU SCHAFFEN, DIE DANN VON PRIVATE-EQUITY-FIRMEN FÜR 0,10 DOLLAR PRO DOLLAR ÜBERNOMMEN UND IN DEN RUIN GETRIEBEN WERDEN KONNTEN???

Why price controls are probably not a good idea to combat inflation (a Reply to Isabella Weber)

Note: I am a student, not an economist or anything like that. There's probably going to be quite a few mistakes in this, but I'll try my best to prevent them. Just for context before moving forward.

The Guardian released a (not well received) article two days ago written by Isabella Weber, an economist at UMass Amherst. In it, she argues that the similarities between the inflation now and in the immediate post-war period provide for a strong case for price controls. Since price controls were implemented with apparent success in the 1940s, they should be implemented now against certain goods "driving inflation" according to Weber. I actually was interested in some of Weber's work on China's economic history, but this article is so blatantly misleading that its deserving of an R1.

To start, Weber asserts that companies are taking in massive profits by intentionally increasing prices ,similar to what happened after WW2:

>However, a critical factor that is driving up prices remains largely overlooked: an explosion in profits. In 2021, US non-financial profit margins have reached levels not seen since the aftermath of the second world war. This is no coincidence. The end of the war required a sudden restructuring of production which created bottlenecks similar to those caused by the pandemic. Then and now large corporations with market power have used supply problems as an opportunity to increase prices and scoop windfall profits.

The abnormally large profit margins we are seeing as of Q1 & Q2 of this year are not a critical factor in the rise of prices, and I think Weber is making a misapplication of where profits stand in this situation. Let's look at consumer goods, since this is what Weber seems to be referring to here. The PCEPI for goods has increased by around .7% from September to October, the latter being the month with the highest percent increase in consumer good prices (as far as I can see there is not data released for December in the time of this writing) according to FRED. The specific causes of these price increases depends on the exact consumer goods we are examining, but generally we are seeing positive demand shocks

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Citadel Securities Partnership with Sequoia Capital and Paradigm Capital - Don't Overlook the Potential Impacts on the Crypto Industry

tl;dr

Citadel Securities has partnered with two venture capital firms (Sequoia & Paradigm) to receive $1.15B of funding, though the details and roadmap of the partnership were unstated; this appears likely to be Citadel Securities entry into the crypto industry as a market maker, and that's probably not a good thing for crypto retail traders and investors given Citadel Securities' track record - and you oughta be aware.

Preface

There were several posts to r/CryptoCurrency on Tuesday (2022JAN11) regarding the Wall Street Journal article, but there was no real discourse into the broader implications of the official Citadel announcement. I'm hoping this post will further the discussion.

I ask you to consider that this partnership may have resulted from Paradigm approaching Sequoia, and together they approached Citadel Securities; it may not have resulted from Citadel Securities seeking partners for a crypto endeavor. This post also relies on the possibility that Citadel Securities isn't amidst a pending collapse, but that it's possible that they doing just fine.

Skip to the "Citadel" Disambiguation section (at the end) if you're unfamiliar with the two "Citadel" entities, those being the hedge fund and the market maker. Only the market maker, Citadel Securities, is discussed in this post.

Why You Should Care

I'm not attempting to be overly alarmist about this partnership, but you shouldn't readily dismiss this partnership as a smoke and mirrors move to prop-up a failing Citadel. There are several aspects of this partnership that are odd at face value and dots remain to be connected. If Citadel Securities is truly planning a crypto-oriented venture, it's gonna be huge - and that's likely problematic for crypto retail traders and investors given Citadel Securities' problematic history of exploiting retail traders and investors.

Furthermore, with the recent attention to crypto by the US Congress and [SEC Chair Gary Gensler](https:
