So what will be the aftermath of this GME event?
These are simply my guesses, I don't actually know.
Wallstreet will likely push for licenses being necessary to trade, or put more limits on how many trades you can make, or some other way to screw the average person trading. 1/

It's possible, but I doubt it.
It would open up new precedents and the optics would be terrible- i.e. shutting down the market because greedy hedgefunds fucked up, and normal people are taking them to the cleaners. 3/

Anything more than that, I'm not sure.
I think the media will push the threat of the government shutting down trading, in order to scare people into selling, to give short sellers a way out. 5/
And these media giants are some of the biggest, richest, most influential men on the planet. So they're gonna try and help their hedgefund pals out. 6/
They're pushing all sorts of bullshit, like these Reddit guys are manipulating the stock illegally (they're not). 7/
Like, really? REALLY?
These foreign governments don't go after banks, or the US treasury? They go after gamestop? THAT'S YOUR ARGUMENT!?! 8/
What do you guys think is gonna happen?
Brokers are allowing people to sell GME, but not allowing them to buy GME.

This forces the price down, and is literally market manipulation. Which is illegal.#GME #Gamestop #TheGameIsRigged pic.twitter.com/3rMhgPtKnT
