How hedge funds are tracking Reddit posts to protect their portfolios after the WallStreetBets crowd tanked Melvin Capital's short positions

Eagle Alpha, which connects hedge-fund clients to alternative-data providers, meanwhile has noticed an increase in demand for data on retail investors this month, with a specific focus on Reddit.

The talk of Wall Street this week has been the meteoric rise of shares in GameStop, the video-game retailer that had been struggling thanks to the pandemic and a shift to buying games directly on consoles, and a big stumble by Melvin Capital, led by one-time golden boy Gabe Plotkin. Plotkin's fund had big bets against GameStop, which became a favorite of the WallStreetBets crowd thanks in part to Chewy.com founder Ryan Cohen's addition to the company board. Melvin's puts against GameStop were revealed in regulatory filings, putting his fund and select others like short-seller Citron Research in the crosshairs of the subreddit.

I sent you an op-ed about the power of retail investors to move markets. Please check it out. :)

Other hedge funds are next 🤣😭😈

The Securities and Exchange Commission needs to get involved here. Getting a group of traders together to intentionally bankrupt Melvin Capital is probably illegal. If it's not, it should be, no matter how much fun WallStreetBets ppl are having.
