If you haven't watched his youtube content go watch it. It's unbelievably high quality. He comes of as a genuinely great guy and he the quality of the analysis he is doing is really good. Definitely puts some things around this story in perspective. [this video]
High quality analysis that puts the GME story in perspective.

on HN thread The nihilism of r/wallstreetbets
u/DeepFuckingValue shits all over the writers narrative. Watch the video linked below if you disagree with me. [this video] I guess if you are not used to interacting with people who have a sense of humour about everything and don’t take life too seriously then you are going to struggle to understand what’s going on in WSB. How can a gambler be nihilistic? Don’t you need hope to gamble?
Counters an article's narrative about WSB with the original analysis.

Today alone: /r/wallstreetbets goes private GME plunges after hours Politicians tweet attacking Wall Street ( [link] ) and referencing retail. Hilarious comments on a now-godlike video of a guy who made a long analysis of GME in July. [this video] Much discussion on the topic ensures, on HN and elsewhere.
Notes the July GME analysis video's sudden fame.

Yep, that buyer is [link] Here [0] he talks the first time about the GME stock; the video was uploaded on the 28th of July, 2020 and the stock was at $4.03 back then. Here [1] you can find his latest GME update; he's sitting on $50 Mio. right now, although it's quite volatile. Here [2] you can see a post from his Reddit account on November 2019 showing his GME calls. It's just crazy and fascinating at the same time. [0] [this video] [1] [link] [2] [link]
Cites the first GME video from July 2020 as source.
