Despite blowout corporate earnings and more solid news on the vaccine front, the stock market just posted its worst weekly performance in three months after Reddit traders squeezed Wall Street's elite out of billions of dollars, sending prices of heavily shorted stocks up to atmospheric new highs and fueling concerns over market frothiness–but experts seem in broad agreement that the bull market can rage on.
McMillan eschews concerns from other experts that the Reddit-fueled price mania could be a sign the market is in the middle of a bubble akin to the dot-com era in the late 1990s, but he says"crackdown" by regulators is likely. Like McMillan, LPL Financial Chief Market Strategist Ryan Detrick is also adamant that the week's events are not indicative of a market bubble or impending correction, though he concedes recent events point to"excessive optimism in certain segments of the equity markets," particularly in big-cap names losing capital from institutions covering shorts at sizable losses.
Trump's fault again?
I’m interpreting this as investors don’t like when the middle class flex their purchasing muscle. Maybe short sellers are the real problem?

The market is absolutely broken. Brokers had to shut down purchasers because of a lack of liquidity. What part of that isn't broken?

Yeah blame reddit for this... you know damn well the FED and their endless printing has been feeding this monster of assets bubble...
