David W Clark : Interesting how the SEC just ignores the fact that, for whatever reason, traders and investors drove the demand and price of GameStop stocks higher than what they could believe and understand. But to me it's no different than any other stock and it's price. All stock prices are set buy the company and market. Then investors who want to buy it drive the price higher or lower. It's NOT a game regardless of what app an investor uses.
As to Janet Yellen's stmt that Congress needs to just eliminate the USA DEBT LIMITS so All Democrat Party Members can continue to make up money out of thin air at will and continue to spend money that can't be repaid in our lifetime. She's just showing she doesn't need to be in charge of USA money and banking systems as we can't continue to spend 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x or more than we take in.
