The Dow and the broader S&P 500 have logged their worst month since October as the GameStop frenzy rages

GameStop has been at the center of it, again soaring on Friday and ending the day up nearly 68%, after trading platforms including Robinhood lifted restrictions on trading the stock. The stock ended the week up 400%.But elsewhere on Wall Street, the picture was bleak. It was the last trading day of January and the Dow and the broader S&P 500 logged their worst month since October.For the day, the Dow finished 2%, or 621 points, lower, and the S&P ended down down 1.9%.

On the CNN front page it says silver is trending as people sell their GME shares. Citadel is Robinhood's largest customer holding those shorts that are being squeezed, and Citadel has longs in silver. Don't convert your RH GME shares to silver. This is what RH & Citadel want.

Thanks Biden. Great job screwing the economy and the little guy trying to trade all at once.

Finally they should feel the pain they have caused to average joe

Could it also be-oh I don’t know-Joe Biden’s handlers being in charge?

The market has no direct tie to economic reality, as we have seen.

Thank You Joe Biden.... please send bread and some butter... This is only a start of the next “Great Depression”

It is time

Awesome

The Biden dip

I swear this bout to turn into Martin shkreli of Wall Street

Thanks Joe
