Sooooo that gives us how long, exactly, until we dive nose first into a huge world wide recession?

Remove the rich

Nobody should be allowed to be a billionaire, put max caps on netwoths. Anything over 10-20 million should go 100% to tax

[–] Ibuthyr@lemmy.wtf 1 points 27 minutes ago

I don't know much about these things, but since there's zero actual value in all this tech bullshit, does it even fucking matter if they crash and burn?

We don't let individuals own nuclear weapons. We shouldn't allow individuals to wield financial weapons.

[–] TotalCourage007@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Idk how this doesn't make more sense to people. Eradicate Billionares worldwide, not just one country. Nobody should starve when Robotics are doing all of the work.

Peter Thiel and Donald j Trump are both best friends with Jeffrey r Epstein and child rapists.

My bet is that he's trying to start a panic in the markets. That way he can clean up on a short.

That means the peak is here. The insider of all insiders sold? Dump everything!

[–] Mk23simp@lemmy.blahaj.zone 94 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Imagine if he waits for people to panic and sell off and then buys back into the market.

In this case, I expect that the market is due to tank for real soon, so that would maybe be a stupid move, but it seems like in general someone could literally trade on the perception that they're an insider (regardless of whether they have real inside information or not) to manipulate the market in their favor.

[–] 5C5C5C@programming.dev 69 points 3 days ago (7 children)

I imagine this should count as illegal stock market manipulation, but the government would be too toothless to prosecute it.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

I imagine this should count as illegal stock market manipulation, but the government would be too in on the scam to prosecute it.

FTFY

The word is regulatory capture, and the game is upwards wealth transfer.

  • Peter Thiel sells his Tesla stake

  • Telsa price goes up

Lolz. Lmao even.

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 164 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Sucks that even though I'm not invested in anything, when this pops I won't be able to buy food. Thanks a lot, wealth and "security" chasers.

[–] drosophila@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 days ago

Isn't this an interesting property of market economies?

Software and silicon chip manufacturing has literally nothing to do with food production and yet a 'disaster' (I.E. going back to the status quo as of a few years ago) in that industry will affect your ability to eat. Nothing has happened to the farmers or their fields, or to the logistics system that moves food from one place to another, and yet somehow things suddenly can't find their way from where they are produced to where they are needed.

Remember, this is supposed to be the most efficient way to allocate resources.

The whole fucking thing needs to crash to the ground.

[–] Bristlecone@lemmy.world 45 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Hilarious that at the end of this specific article, for me, an ad popped up advertising AI investing 😂 Jesus we are so fucked

The next year before the Midterms is going to be a wild circus.

This goes back to September.

Don't make actions today based on something someone did months ago. Look at the situation now.

Nvidia is still being given piles of money. Everybody knows it's gonna blow eventually... but if there's a dip today it will rise again until a real crash once buyers stop paying.

DRAM going to the moon right now over demand is not a good sign of nvidia losing steam any time soon.

I thought we decided to not post stonks crap in here. It‘s what completely ruined the technology community over at Reddit before the entire site was ruined.

[–] JensSpahnpasta@feddit.org 46 points 2 days ago

When we are in the middle of a tech bubble and one of the richest and most connected men on earth decides to cash out, then that is not "stonks crap", but relevant tech news. Some companies stock price rising by 2% is not news, but this? Yes.

[–] rafoix@lemmy.zip 27 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Unfortunately, these stocks being high are directly related to so much of the tech world being complete shit right now.

The underlying story is the AI bubble that we all know will end badly. They are shoving lying and hallucinating AI on our devices and into our employment without consent. It's going to come down, its a matter of when, not if.

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Well if we gonna make a post every time some rich fucker sells tech stonks now it will quickly evolve into spam. I mean, we already know AI is overblown and we don‘t need to take a single glance at someone‘s portfolio to know that because this is a technology community and we‘re informed about what big tech keeps promising and underdelivering for 3 years straight.

when you see the rats running from the end of the ship that's settling a little lower in the water... that water ain't outside the hull anymore.

[–] jellygoose@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 days ago (5 children)

I hope your 401K is diversified because this will bring down a lot with its fall.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 9 points 2 days ago

If it isn't diversified, then you're not investing. You're gambling.
