Kolla Gamestop-aktien! Nu försöker man kollapsa ekonomin... de skapar incitament för sin stakeholder capitalism.
Intressant. Nu kanske de kraschar börsen och hela ekonomin också. Orginal-limpor från Bonden Bills marker blir den nya valutan. Folk får elda med Teslaaktierna för att kunna hålla värmen i husvagnen.
Faktiskt en bra artikel från CNN (!) om hur Reddit och andra driver kurserna. Musk tas upp förstås.

Everything you need to know about how a Reddit group blew up GameStop's stock
On one side you have a band of mostly young day traders who coordinate on Reddit to drive up the share price of struggling companies, including GameStop (GME), but also BlackBerry (BB), Macy's (M) and AMC (AMC).
On the other you have hedge funds and short-sellers — those who've placed bets that a company's stock will crash. These are Wall Street elite,
We're now, potentially, at the climax of this movie: GameStop is up more than 1,700% since the start of January
GameStop, however. The company is expected to lose money this year and next. Sales growth is sluggish because gamers no longer need to go to the mall to buy games or consoles.
The GameStop stock surge began for a legitimate reason: The company announced on January 11 it had added three new directors to its board, including Chewy co-founder Ryan Cohen.
On Wednesday, while all three major stock indexes tumbled, GameStop finished up a mind-boggling 134%.
One year ago, a single share cost about $4. It's now $200.
Amateur investors continued a frenzied runup of GameStop for the fourth session in a row, with the stock ending Tuesday up more than 92%, or about $148 a share.
After the market closed, Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk appeared to join the pile-on with a tweet that sent GameStop shares briefly above $200. His one-word comment — "Gamestonk!!" — was all it took to cheer on the the popular Reddit page that's been generating most of the hype around the stock.
WallStreetBets, which has more than 2 million followers, is littered with posts cheering the stock gains and no small amount of righteous indignation.
"What I think is happening is that you guys are making such an impact that these fat cats are worried that they have to get up and put in work to earn a living,"
The GameStop saga is a battle of new school vs. old school, amateur vs. professional, rebels vs. the establishment.
At the moment, the kids are winning. But, like all bubbles, this one's going to burst at some point.
