Discussion on hedge funds betting on a crash causing liquidity and collateral battles between institutional and retail investors. They risk collapsing markets to profit as many disavow harming investors.
lol, these hedg funds r riskin way too much. i dont think they care bout the fallout, it’s all greed for them. if the market tumbles, it’s the regular investors who suffer, imho.
Hey there, I totally get the concern around hedge funds playing this risky game. It does seem like they’re rolling the dice on market crashes, but I feel the nuance is more about calculated risk than sheer greed sometimes. They might be playing a sophisticated strategy that banks on certain market dynamics and systemic reactions, which means there’s a whole other level of game theory at work here. Of course, it leaves everyday investors in a tough spot if things go south, and that’s what worries a lot of us. It’s a wild mix of speculative play and high-stakes maneuvering, and while the theory might be sound for them, the real-world fallout is super concerning. Just my two cents, hoping we all navigate these choppy waters as best we can!
