From The Wall Street Journal : An example, albeit extreme, of the losses inflicted on hedge funds by the retail investor uprising. The article reports that this fund notably de-risked its portfolio. Yet total outstanding shorts in GameStop as an example didn't fall much suggesting others got into the trade/increased their shorts.

Quick Market Update Good morning. A tentatively better tone in markets this morning, with major stock indices in Europe up some 0.2-0.5%. US futures suggest that, were trading to start now, the indices would recover around 40% of yesterday's losses at the open. Away from equity, oil is sharply higher and government bond yields are relatively quiet. BIG focus this hour is the release of the US jobless claims numbers.

WHAT DO POOR PEOPLE DO THAT RICH PEOPLE DON'T I can tell within a minute if someone is going to end up rich or poor. Poor people buy status. Rich people buy time. Poor people talk about people. Rich people talk about ideas. Poor people say things like, “relationships are hard work”. Rich people spend time with good people. Poor people think “the 4 Hour Work Week” means, “work only 4 hours”. Rich people think “the 4 Hour Work Week” means “get 40 hours of work done in 4 hours. Then repeat.” Poor people give up things they love to spend more time on things they hate. Rich people combine love with work. #success #wealth #entrepreneurship #job #career MORE: …see more
