Most video game sales now&nbsp;take place as digital downloads. GameStop&nbsp;has been slow&nbsp;to adapt to this new reality. Its revenue peaked in&nbsp;2012 at US$9.55 billion&nbsp;and had dropped by a third&nbsp;as of 2019. It hasn’t earned a profit since 2017. Put simply, it is a money-losing company in a competitive and quickly changing industry.</p><p>The recent speculative frenzy, however, increased the GameStop stock price&nbsp;from under $20 in early January to as high as $483&nbsp;in a little over two weeks,&nbsp;driven by retail investors on Reddit&nbsp;who coordinated their buying to harm hedge funds,&nbsp;costing the professionals billions of dollars.</p><p>It is&nbsp;clearly a speculative price bubble&nbsp;and has some characteristics of a Ponzi scheme.

People are imperfect, and so are markets. This means market prices are not always “right” — and it’s often hard to know what the “right” price is.</p><p>That is true when it comes to the price bubbles in individual stocks like GameStop. But it’s also true on a much bigger scale, when it comes to a market as a whole.</p><p>Price bubbles and crashes are good for neither Wall Street nor Main Street. When the dot-com bubble popped in 2000 —&nbsp;after prices of dozens of tech stocks soared exponentially in the late 1990s&nbsp;— an&nbsp;economic recession&nbsp;followed soon after. The bursting of a&nbsp;housing bubble in 2008&nbsp;triggered a global financial crisis and the Great Recession.</p><p>Too much momentum</p><p>So markets fail sometimes, and we need sensible regulation and enforcement to make such failures less likely.</p><p>Taken in isolation, the GameStop craze is unlikely to trigger a disruption to the overall stock market, especially if its price continues to fall more in line with the company’s fundamental value. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated case. Nor was GameStop the first sign of problems.</p><p>In recent days, Reddit users have also driven up the&nbsp;prices of silverSI00,0.61%&nbsp;and&nbsp;companies&nbsp;such as BlackBerryBB,+1.25%and movie theater giant AMC EntertainmentAMC,-20.96%.Popular trading apps like Robinhood&nbsp;have made trading easy, fun&nbsp;and basically free.</p><p>The share price of TeslaTSLA,-0.55%,for example,&nbsp;skyrocketed 720% last year, in large part when investors bought the stock because it was already rising. This is called&nbsp;momentum investing, a trading strategy in which investors buy securities because they are going up — selling them only when they think the price has peaked.</p><p>If this continues, it will likely lead to more financial bubbles and crashes that could make it harder for companies to raise capital, posing a threat to the&nbsp;already limping U.S. economic recovery. Even if the worst doesn’t happen, large price movements and allegations of price manipulation&nbsp;could hurt public confidence&nbsp;in financial markets, which would make people more reluctant to invest in retirement and other programs.</p><p>Warren Buffett&nbsp;once said&nbsp;about stock market behavior: “The light can at any time go from green to red without pausing at yellow.”</p><p>What he meant was that markets can turn on a dime and plunge. He saw these moments as opportunities to find deals in the market, but for most people they result in panic, heavy losses and economic consequences like mass unemployment — as we saw in 1929, 2000 and 2008.</p><p>There’s no particular reason it won’t happen again.</p><p><i>Alexander Kurov is a professor of finance and holds the Fred T.

When the dot-com bubble popped in 2000 — after prices of dozens of tech stocks soared exponentially in the late 1990s — an economic recession followed soon after. The bursting of a housing bubble in 2008 triggered a global financial crisis and the Great Recession.Too much momentumSo markets fail sometimes, and we need sensible regulation and enforcement to make such failures less likely.Taken in isolation, the GameStop craze is unlikely to trigger a disruption to the overall stock market, especially if its price continues to fall more in line with the company’s fundamental value. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated case. Nor was GameStop the first sign of problems.In recent days, Reddit users have also driven up the prices of silverSI00,0.61% and companies such as BlackBerryBB,+1.25%and movie theater giant AMC EntertainmentAMC,-20.96%.Popular trading apps like Robinhood have made trading easy, fun and basically free.The share price of TeslaTSLA,-0.55%,for example, skyrocketed 720% last year, in large part when investors bought the stock because it was already rising. This is called momentum investing, a trading strategy in which investors buy securities because they are going up — selling them only when they think the price has peaked.If this continues, it will likely lead to more financial bubbles and crashes that could make it harder for companies to raise capital, posing a threat to the already limping U.S. economic recovery. Even if the worst doesn’t happen, large price movements and allegations of price manipulation could hurt public confidence in financial markets, which would make people more reluctant to invest in retirement and other programs.Warren Buffett once said about stock market behavior: “The light can at any time go from green to red without pausing at yellow.”What he meant was that markets can turn on a dime and plunge. He saw these moments as opportunities to find deals in the market, but for most people they result in panic, heavy losses and economic consequences like mass unemployment — as we saw in 1929, 2000 and 2008.There’s no particular reason it won’t happen again.Alexander Kurov is a professor of finance and holds the Fred T. Tattersall Research Chair in Finance at West Virginia University In Morgantown.

POINTS\n\nA flurry of retail buying led by Reddit thread WallStreetBets sent shares of heavily shorted stocks like GameStop and AMC Entertainment skyrocketing last week.\nGameStop shares surged 1,625% in January and inflicted a mark-to-market loss of almost $20 billion to hedge funds with short positions against the stock, according to data from S3 Partners.\n\nThe retail trading flood fueled by Reddit could pose a systemic risk to markets, according to Paul Gambles, co-founder of investment advisory firm MBMG Group.\nA flurry of retail buying led by Reddit thread WallStreetBets sent shares of heavily shorted stocks likeGameStopandAMC Entertainmentskyrocketing last week, squeezing the short positions of Wall Street hedge funds.\nGameStop shares surged 1,625% in January andinflicted a mark-to-market loss of almost $20 billionto hedge funds with short positions against the stock, according to data from S3 Partners.\nThe trend spilled over into metal markets on Monday, sendingsilver prices surgingmore than 7% by late afternoon in Europe.\n“If this is telling us something about the general health of the markets, that is a broader concern,” Gambles told CNBC’s “Squawk Box Europe” on Monday, adding that there is “no way”GameStop stock is worth its current price, but noting that those buying it “don’t actually care.”\n“We have got a market where there is what we would traditionally call a bubble, where there is an awful lot of equities out there that are absolutely priced for perfection and beyond,” he said.\nGambles said this could cause a “systemic event” if brokerages begin to fail, highlighting Robinhood’s trading restrictions in various stocks last week. Thecommission-free trading app introduced the new controlsafter receiving a $3 billion security deposit request from the National Securities Clearing Corporation on Thursday, its CEO Vlad Tenev revealed on Monday.\nHowever, Gambles also suggested that there could be a systemic risk from the hedge fund side.\n“If a hedge fund blows up, that could cause a lot of damage to prime brokers. We could be back to a Long-Term Capital Management, 1998-type moment,” he added.\nLTCM was a U.S. hedge fund that collapsed in 1998 and almost took down the global financial system due to a series of highly leveraged trading strategies, before eventually receiving a U.S. government bailout.\n‘Localized tussle’\nThe rise of GameStop and other unfavored stocks led to a ramping up of short-covering and options hedging that rippled through various stocks and sectors last week.\nShort selling is a strategy in which investors borrow shares of a stock at a certain price on expectations that the market value will fall below that level when it’s time to pay for the borrowed shares. Buying back borrowed shares to close out a short position, whether for a profit or loss, is known as short-covering.\nPaul O’Connor, head of multi-asset at Janus Henderson Investors, highlighted in a note Friday that the pain has mostly been felt by “equity long-short hedge funds, which have seen some copy-cat short-squeezes in stocks with high short interest,” leading to a “frantic de-risking of positions and reduction in gross equity exposures.”\n“While the brawl between retail speculators and hedge funds over GameStop has been distracting and at times bewildering, we see it more as being a localized tussle over a highly-contested stock, than something with broader or enduring market significance,” O’Connor said.\n“Equity markets have, of course, seen a few days of significant volatility, as these battles played out, but the overall impact on long-only investors, quant funds and macro investors has been modest.”\nO’Connor said spillovers to credit markets, commodities and foreign exchange markets have been fairly inconsequential thus far, and suggested that while regulators in Europe may take some remedial actions, the GameStop story is “largely a U.S. one.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":372,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":315761056,"gmtCreate":1612277248575,"gmtModify":1703759777369,"author":{"id":"3555049525951664","authorId":"3555049525951664","name":"Milnai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/956207d88a1abbd8c4774d92e7a77229","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555049525951664","authorIdStr":"3555049525951664"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Okie&nbsp;","listText":"Okie&nbsp;","text":"Okie","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/315761056","repostId":"2108200559","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":363,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"following","isTTM":false}
