Robinhood or the Sheriff of Nottingham
In today's episode, Alex and Shimon discuss the recent Robinhood fiasco. For the first time since either of us can remember, mainstream stock trading apps let people sell stocks but not buy the same stock. This happened because of a huge short position that a hedge fund had and a horde of retail reddit investors who went against it in order to short squeeze the trade.What happened next will surprise you.Follow us on twitter:@shimonlazarov@mrebitdawww.hardcorefinance.comSupport the show

Musing: Revenge of the Retail Investor
Today, I -@MrEBITDA - want to muse about the rise of the retail investor. These younger (typically) investors are value driven and care about companies. They are also enabled by apps such as Robinhood and are out to show strength against Wall Street and the "Elites". They have become a force to be reckoned with - as evidenced by the recent Game Stop fiasco. But what does this mean for your portfolio? Will this cause you gains or pain?Listen to find out more@MrEBITDA@ShimonLazarovSupport the show
