“‘I lost £170k on GameStop due to Reddit investors and incompetent stock broker’
“As an experienced investor, I recently became heavily invested in a short position in GameStop, the American consumer electronics store, which was doing terribly as a business. But then, a few weeks back, when things started kicking off on Reddit and people started piling into the stock to artificially boost its value, I started rapidly losing money. I was down around £170,000, and my account fell into negative equity.
I told my broker, Interactive Brokers, that I wanted to close out my position as quickly as possible.On Jan 27, GameStop shares opened in the premarket at 9am UK time at $240 (£172), and then traded between $183 and $364 until the New York Stock Exchange opened.”
