'Unacceptable': AOC calls out Robinhood for blocking GameStop purchases and suggests holding a hearing on it

AOC called Robinhood barring users from buying GameStop stocks 'unacceptable.' AOC said the House Financial Service Committee should investigate the matter if necessary. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York called the stock trading platform Robinhood blocking purchases of GameStop stock "unacceptable" and called for the House Financial Services Committee to investigate if necessary.

Trading platforms including the popular app Robinhood, Ameritrade, and Fidelity have halted users from purchasing shares of certain companies that Reddit users have been buying up en masse. Over the course of the month of January, investors and members of the popular Reddit forum r/WallStreetBets — which has more than 2 million users — have pushed shares higher for retailers GameStop, AMC, Nokia, and Blackberry. All of the stocks were being heavily shorted, or bet against, by major hedge funds prior to the activity.

When she's in the game you gotta kneel because that's a Queen.

Not Everyone knows that Hive blockchain technologies is a strong buy right now and the missing thing here is the analysts rating. If any of the analysts gets attention on this stock it can create a very big investing opportunity for everyone.

She finally has the right thought!

She's got my vote!

Unacceptable. Drink the tears of billionaires☕️😂

Hearings:

They should hold a hearing not only on the Robinhood blocking but the whole situation. Investigate the whole entire situation - dont just focus on such a narrow aspect of the overall situation.

Wow, I agree with AOC

Rigging the game right in front of our eyes
