Heh, I also used to think it was manipulation but after having it explained to me by @Ants, I can see the difference compared with manipulation by misinformation (talking the stock up or down with lies or half-truths).
The starting basis of this play was from good analysis of being able to achieve a short squeeze just by buying up the stock.
Reported to the ASX if you own enough to have voting rights.
Misinformation in Australia can be illegal or open you up for libel suits.
All the short activists companies are based overseas and if you ever try to download their reports you will get warning signs popping up saying the report is not for Australian eyes and you should not read it.
Anyone a bit antsy on the stock market another investment option is peer to peer lending.
Like plenti or latitude financial.
Lend your money to someone else who needs it. Just as another alternative market to equities or property to diversify.
Comes with default risks but depending on the marketplace they have mitigation strategies in place.
I’ve been earning a steady 5 or 6 % on a little bit of cash. It’s obviously no afterpay or GameStop, But who I am lending too is unlikely to be up to their eye balls in a hedge fund for example with questionable short positions.
What misinformation were they spreading?
Are people who arbitrage also manipulators?
they were spreading the misinformation that it was redditors who were the ones buying silver, so as i’m guessing get the price of silver to go up exponentially like other reddit stocks did.
hence the, if you can’t beat them, use them to your advantage line 
What stops a person from being a hedge fund manager and a redditor?
🥸:money_mouth_face:
i’d say a billion plus dollar head start for well starters ha
I’ve got some S32 shares (BHP spinoff), which haven’t done well for a couple of years. They have a silver mine, so I’m hoping this pushes the price up enough for me to get out.
Reckon a couple have accounts or have minions who do that work at their bidding.
Ok, so this is something completely different (Silver) than what was being discussed. You were responding to @bomber001 and he wasn’t talking about Silver. He was talking about GamesStop.
They are currently worth more than the listing price from the demerger. It just depends how much you want to get for them, look to be on the upswing.
nope, bomber001 responded to my claims of market manipulation statement facetiously claiming that it’s not market manipulation cos you told him it’s not (it’s a legal loophole).
So i was talking about silver and how they’re using the reddit juggernaut to market manipulate, he was too, again facetiously.
you’re the only one who was stuck on it being about gme.
altho tbf I did backtrack through the thread to see what your original reply was on the subject, hence figured out the facetious bit.
Let’s start a blitz juggernaut.
What we gonna target peeps? Get in early.
Essington FC.
I need something we can develop a real mania of that’s in limited supply.
I’m pretty sure Essington FC doesn’t really classify on those two fronts.
Send it sky high 
Apologies, now that you’ve pointed it out I realized I didn’t properly notice that you were referring specifically to silver. As Ants mentioned, I was more referring to Gamestop and other stocks.
I wasn’t being facetious, just bad reading of your post.
Proptech fits the bill…
everyones playing chess and i’m playing yathzee bhahahah
