Global stocks remained volatile for a second day Tuesday, moving sharply lower as concern mounted among investors that the widening conflict in the Middle East could escalate further.
I wonder if Pam wants to discuss Trump’s stock market.
coordinated trades to manipulate price action is one very big and common aspect to the casino, yes. but ultimately that number means nothing unless there’s actually the liquidity at that level for you to exit your position at a profit (in order to buy in on something else trading low) or you have a position in that stock to trade on margin elsewhere.
via unique aspects to how US options work, there is a lot of forced buying/selling going on at any time on most tickers
this is why the powers that be are trying in vain to prop up the wider market, US is most over-leveraged market in the world…when the music stops (liquidity tap closed)…anyone without a chair (not utilizing proper risk management) gets forced to sell, frequently at a heavy discount, as their margin evaporates
anything tied to the PA, loans included, are at risk when PA collapses.
now, this is why tesla is propped up.
ultimately, PA is determined by whoever has the most $ to move around (and lowest entry/cost) between themselves
with forced buying/selling via options, and some sort of regular liquidity injection to maneuver around, it is very easy to control something that noone else is actually buying. index funds are required to allot some money to every ticker in X index, ans the overwhelming majority of $ being movdd around is via index funds.
there’s a whole wing of fintech designed around artificially inflating the price of companies right before inclusion in a big index, so they can “dump” on index funds that have to buy
there are so sooo many levels to shit, it really is the most convoluted predatory casino imagined, where 2 things are rewarded above all else…knowledge (of the underlying fundemental value) and greed. when your greed outpaces your knowledge is when people start blowing up accounts.

Except that rich people never sell. They get loans against their assets (i.e. imaginary inflated stock) that they use to buy real assets.
