It was brilliant, what the Redditors did. And there's never been a more blatant illustration of, "oh noes. The poors figured out how we cheat the system quick shut it off."
@@stschannelt1476 I agree, he's the OG player in all of this and to top it off, he's so very watchable and likable!
How did these guys come up with enough capital to buy enough stock to hurt the hedge funds, can someone please explain?
@@eliakimbenishchayil There's tens or maybe hundreds of thousands of people buying the stock and the price was being pushed artificially low by the hedge funds shorting it. Regular investors bought stocks for a few dollars and by the time they were done they had purchased so much that it drove the stock price up.
The most interestin thing is that there is in fact a way to "shut it off". Pretty incredible the sys has a means for those in pwr to literally just turn it all off so they can control their risks and would-be financial hits.
I doubt there's anyone running the world that would say "oh noes". Just sayin.
Good to know Jon hasn’t lost his edge after all these years. Dude just picked right where he left off like it was nothing. This man is a national treasure
Who makes me deeply depressed as he drops truth bombs. Unless things improve in the last minute - I’m 15 mts in and shaking my head and how fucked up all this is.
“Someone should question him publicly” - dude looks so defeated as he says that. Fuck Jim Cramer and his theatrics from when Jon last spoke to him.
Just wait until he starts talking about race. He gets real post modern and Marxist quickly
@@thoughtinvestigation4263 What does that even mean? Like, give me actual examples and not Jordan Peterson word salad.
Yeah, such an edge that literally parrots every everyone else on the left
The point Jon made about us “not supposed to understand it” is so true. That’s how cons work: they come up with something so intricate it takes too much time and skill to unwrap it. Mad props to the redditors.
YES!
Then maybe he can explain how Democrats have let in 10's of millions of illegals over the past 35 yeara while always saying...'"we need imigration reform" instead of simply enforcing standing immigration laws.
And at the same time ask Democrats why they did not spend the $$$ billions used on illegals to instead help black Americans.
@@carlfrye1566
Maga hat on too tight? Or you one of those Qanon idiots?
@Carl Frye work on your spelling and grammar.
@@rudysal1429 Hmm. I'd say it's not all he should work on
"btw in the 90's they referred to as just friends" is such a good joke. it's criminal nobody made a sound
I was laughing so much I forgot the topic of the video
The audience was asleep this whole segment
IKR, I was laughing for like a solid minute before I realised I lost track of the plot and had to rewind
I don't think the crowd for this show was very big. Jon's back to getting massive laughs on The Daily Show now!
@@McShag420 Supposedly, he backed out because Apple wasn't gonna let him rip into China, or AI. This is why he mentioned both of those like first thing on the first episode he hosted when he came back to the Daily Show.
Jon's been spitting fire for decades and he's still right on point. Having Jon Stewart on your side is so comforting, he's the adult in any given room.
JON STEWART FOR POTUS.
I don't care. He's much more honest and charismatic.
He'd fuck Trump right up the ass in an election too. He should pull a Trump with the DNC primary.
He’s achieved nothing. I love Jon and I love what he does but it’s not that comforting because it doesn’t change anything. Everyone in America knows they’re being screwed but it keeps happening brazenly because those in power all know they’ll continue to get away with it.
@@kiriakoz I can't say he has achieved nothing. He championed the 9/11 responders bill and shamed Congress into doing the right thing, I will give him that. He has joked at least one generation into being one of the most informed ever, even if they haven't used that information at all.
But despite his relentless, righteous pillorying of populism and the most batshit crazy elements in both parties he wasn't even a speedbump for the Tea Party or Trump. His most noteworthy moment was calling out Tucker Carlson...and that moronic shit-golum is still on the air with an audience that is bigger than ever. Net loss, sadly.
Tis facts!
Jon Stewart may be the biggest thing to happen to this situation yet!
For the younger audience. When he said "someone should question him publicly"....he refers to the time...when he did exactly that
Jim Cramer was so fucking apologetic in that interview. Crocodile tears.
wish jon would quit being a fkn child and question biden publicly.
@@charlespancamo9771 You were born yesterday, I'm assuming.
It's the only (comparatively) logical conclusion I can draw from your inane statement.
@@BornFlunky No I was born in 1982 so I got to see Jon hold everyone on both sides of the aisle feet to the fire. For anyone completely removed from both parties (like myself) that clearly ended before he even left the daily show. Back to right now - He's not doing his job by playing softball with Bidens and democrats. He's not being the authentic Jon we all grew to love at one time.
@@charlespancamo9771 If you actually saw all those things, you would have also seen the times he has -- in fact -- criticized not only Democrats, but Biden directly.
He has done both things in The Problem, even.
But you haven't. You've seen CZcams clips -- maybe -- and not the whole wealth of his work. And are thusly making a hilariously uninformed judgement.
But more concerningly, you've been caught in the trap of "both sides," apparently more interested in being biased towards "fairness," than actually taking the scale of the problems within each party, comparing them, and correctly concluding that one party has vastly more issues to correct than the other, and ones with more immediate ramifications.
And if you don't currently know what fairness bias is -- which is actually fair, many don't -- then you don't understand a core part of the nature of Jon's work, and I would recommend learning about it.

After experimenting with stocks since late 2021, I've shifted to 100% S&P 500. Still regretting not doing so from the start. Now i am Considering a return to individual stocks in 2024, but uncertain about safely investing close to 300k in the market.
Everyone needs a Margin of Safety in their portfolios and just remember, It's time in the market versus timing the market.
De-risk your portfolios, shore up your core holdings, and take some profits while balancing your portfolio allocations. I’d also suggest you go with a managed portfolio, but even those don’t perform so well, so it’s best you reach out to a proper fiduciary to guide you, that’s what works for my spouse and I. We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.
this is all new to me, where do I find a fiduciary, can you recommend any?
"Jennifer Leigh Hickman" is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment
Thank you for sharing, I must say, Jennifer appears to be quite knowledgeable. After coming across her web page, I went through her resume and it was quite impressive. I reached out and scheduled a call
The problem is that this isn't over yet. Institutional investors are still doing whatever they want, the SEC is in bed with them and won't move even on outlawed practice, and retail investors lack access and power to break into this game and clean it up.
and, yet, it's part of the government, which is SUPPOSED to be working for the people.
Newsflash: It's not, and has not been for a LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, time
Not only is it not over but the shorts for gme still didn't cover or at least there is a ton of evidence that points to them still short gme. That's part of the problem btw because hedge funds aren't required to disclose their short positions. Ain't that a mother fucker?!
The FED...
DRS
The SEC and the FDA seem to have a ton of stuff in common
His comment at the end..."someone should question him publicly, because I'm sure that would have tremendous ramifications." That was actually depressing. We've been here before, exposed all this and its just happening again and no one cares..
I'd say that it's less that people don't care and more that people are too physically ill to do anything. Those who are healthy enough are able to muster the energy to do something. The rest have fallen so chronically ill that they're mentally incapable of much more than perpetual pain management.
allot of people do care but just not the ones that can actually make a difference because they are already rich as fuck!
Yea, he dragged Cramer over the coals years ago. I was a little shocked he agreed to be on the show. Cramer actually did disappear for a brief period of time, but I guess he's back at the buffoonery again.
@@youtubesucksforforcingthis He can't live without it
@@youtubesucksforforcingthis he probably needs the money.
Jon is so good at pointing out outrageous things, giving them the outrage they deserve in a deliberate, restrained fashion, and finding the humor in all of it. Man delivers outrageousness so well without being obnoxious and embodies it in some ways.
I remember something I read once from a random person on the internet that more or less said "When the economy is doing well we're told how awesome it is but don't see any of the benefits; when it does bad we're the ones who are told we have to make sacrifices and tighten our belts."
I lost it at "Someone should question him publicly." That was one of the best Daily Show episodes and I hope he never recovers from all those burns.
Unfortunately he still has a job being a cocaine fueled clown on the air. Till MOASS and all their lies are forever exposed
He's still got a job on TV so I'd say it probably didn't have a huge impact unfortunately
holy shit you made it all the way to the end without losing it?
Glad to see a journalist with integrity actual dig into this issue and shed serious light on just how messed up our financial institutions are. If hedge funds can sell you securities they don't own, and bypass settlement functions with measly fines, how is it fair?
Love this man.
It’s not fair. Not even close. It was designed for these institutions, not for retail. Needs major major reform
Journalist my ass fool!
He’s not a journalist. He’s just a pissed off honest comedian.
at least theres John
I remember watching Jon destroy Jim Kramer over the course of 20+minutes and it was amazing. Jim was so drawn in on himself like a child being berated by a parent who isn't "mad", they're just "disappointed". The fact that he kept his job and "credibility" after that is just indicative of how broken our system is
He didn't spit fire on The Daily Show about his brother Larry who was COO of the NYSE during the 2008 Meltdown. Larry toasted Occupy Wall Street from on high while laughing at your pain. Jon is gaslighting his audience.

So you ever see that video where Jon Stewart utterly destroyed Jim Kramer, to the point where even if you didn't like Jim Kramer it started getting uncomfortable AF?
Let's hear what you have to say about that. Because that is the topic of this thread. Not whatever else you wanted us to talk about instead.
@@elbruces Jim Cramer is Andre the Giant, Jon Stuart Leibowitz is Hulk Hogan. See how it works?
@5.24 "in the nineties they were referred to as just friends" DYING 😅
For Jon's newer fans: Jon Stewart's discussions with Jim Cramer are among his more legendary moments.
Good thing there's a streaming service for every channel and cell phone company now...Thanks Jon...
Cokerat Cramer's balls shrank three sizes that day.
Jon would need to be on some serious Sativa strain weed to keep up with that coke rats nonsensical ramblings
Thanks I'll check them out!.
Actually, to me, it's one of the Great Signs of his utter failure. His & American society's. You guys are quite the collection of infantile cowards, aint'cha?
He's begging congress to stop blocking heroic first responders from getting needed medical aid. Why? We _have laws_ that make it illegal for members of congress to 1) interfere in business one way or another, & 2) it's _ALSO_ 100% illegal for them to use their public office for personal gain, as the articles of impeachment against Trump made very clear.
Politicians are Private Citizens. Wtf does Mitch McConnell _do_ exactly that you're so afraid of removing his playing piece out of fear the whole structure of government will come crashing down?
The answer is that only your infantile idealism of politicians will suffer.
That's it. That's entirely it. You all would much rather gladly sacrifice your *Own Children* to a fantasy; To _retain_ a fantasy that retaining it doesn't make real.
Capitalism isn't the end result of laws of physics or nature. But acknowledging this would again force people to recognize that again, their beloved Daddy-Protectors are failing them. So, Mitch has to act immorally because capitalism is holding a gun to his head.
Even by infant's standards, this is pathetic. The main difference between you cowardly adults & actual infants is this: infants _can't sustain lying to themselves this way._ It harms their psyche. & you all _KNOW_ this!
But just as a drunk's only priority is their drink, a coward's one is making up excuses as to why they can't take action. You didn't even ask to see where the missing 16 trillion disappeared from, didn't lift a finger to help the First Responders, never questioned anything that might lead to you having to deal with one iota of adult-level responsibility.

@@stillpaints The chocolate cake packing person is referring to the New York Fire Department and the veterans from the 9/11 attacks. There was a law in Congress to give them compensation and at one point the law was not gonna pass - that's when Jon Stewart invited some of those veterans who have lost limbs and health helping people during the attacks to be on his old Comedy Central show - and the law was approved.
Now, about inequality (in relation to stock ownership) has increased because of the asymmetric information distribution. The Stock Exchange does not create wealth - it just transfers from one investor to another and the investor with more information will win more often (I'm talking legal information and not insider trading). Stocks are a way for people who want to create companies that create wealth to get the money they need. Once the stock exchange became a game it stopped fulfilling it's purpose and became a important cause of the deindustrialization process in several western developed countries. If I'm not buying a stock because I want the dividends that regularly I earn from it but because I want to sell when their price is high, then I'm ok with things that will kill the company that issues the stock as long as I can sell when it's high.
There's a country in the middle of Europe where less than 50% of it's industry is open capital (traded in the stock exchanged): Germany. Some German companies, like Carl Zeiss, have stocks but they are all in the hands of the Carl Zeiss Foundation and are not traded. Stock prices drive CEOs to see into the future as far as groundhogs see in front of their noses.
Anyway, NYFD is New York Fire Dept.
Not a saint. = A Paid Propagandist.

I was watching all of this from the sidelines in real time. I'm glad Jon Stewart is shining a light on the whole thing. The story isn't over though and is still ongoing.
Following the money always leads to the darkest parts of the American Dream. Thanks Jon
Oh hey, just as a reminder, this isn't over yet. Hedge funds haven't closed their positions and retail pretty much owns the GME float. There's literally no way for them to close out of their positions without driving the price to whatever number retail wants. It's only a matter of time, babyy.
Yes if the general public or people actually get this concept they would be buying gme in droves. It's really a hidden gem in plain sight. Once in a lifetime opportunity and last January was only a glimpse of it.
DRS 💜
So this means it‘s a good idea to buy a few gamestop shares?
@@alexanderlang7691 I've always tried to buy a few shares when I can and then DRS them as soon as possible. That's something I do for myself; feel free to do what you want.
But IMO, the price action of GME is completely separated from the fundamentals of stock trading. Its movement is ridiculous and has been for a year now. We see occasional run-ups and then dips back down to below $100 with low volume on the day, which makes no sense if you subscribe to how the stock market is traditionally discussed (high volume of buys/sells = price swings, but isn't true in GME's case, because we see large swings with very little movement; this, to me, strengthens the argument that there's some weird shit going down).
I have a few shares here and there just for security purposes. I made some money on the first run-up back in Jan '21 and then bough the dips a few times since then to hold. When this thing blows, $100/share will be a bargain. As always, only spend what you can afford to lose.
@@alexanderlang7691 no it really isn't unless you are ok with not seeing roi, because gme is a hold only stock there is no underlying value much like bitcoin and all blockchain services. investing in a speculitive market is as bad as what these people do on a day to day basis.
"Someone should question him publicly" - yeah we know you did it Jon and brilliantly about 12 years ago. No ramifications.
To whoever reading this, never stop chasing your dreams you can do it. Keep pressing and thriving you will make it! Consistency is the key to achieve your goals.
Bitcoin trading is just like any other business but in this case more sophisticated and advanced.
A career in Bitcoin offers you the opportunity to earn a lot of money if you have the patience to learn the process and strategies involved or better still get yourself a professional broker.
Investing in Bitcoin may seem scary but know that it takes time and effort today understand how bitcoin works. If you understand the potential impact of bitcoin it won't be hard to understand why investing in Bitcoin may be a good idea
Earning 500k per year on salary job is just $50 per day trading Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is a global safe heaven for investors.
In 1993 my husband and I came into some money from our business, and thought we should do something responsible with it like put it into the stock market. We scheduled an appointment with a broker in the city, sat down, told him how much we had and he proceeded to treat us like we were in over our heads and should be embarrassed to waste his time. It really embarrassed us. I’ve often wondered where we’d be financially if the guy had worked with us, or at the very least sent us to someone who would have worked with us.
That's insane, I don't mean to be rash, but we should eat the rich.
Nowadays a financial planner at the bank will talk you into investing in one of their actively managed trust funds, where they can charge you for high commission while consistently underperform the market. If you want exposure to the stock market, just buy index funds.
@@gingerbread_GB Yes, we’ve just learned exactly this…25 years later
I didn’t realize how much I missed Jon till now. So glad he’s back!
Yeah. Thank you Jon.
He was basically my news source back in the day, lol.
@@nemesiswes426 - I thought he was the. "Duck's Guts", as we sometimes say down here in Australia, when we really enjoyed something, or appreciate someone's performance, or perhaps just like being in their company. Yeah, we got a thousand weird and wonderful colloquialisms, yet sometimes they sort of loose "something in the translation", particularly if I use them when speaking to Americans and yet, there's next to nothing an American could say to me that I've not heard before. Apart from the more "regional" or "site specific" one's.
I don't think that most Americans truly appreciate just how much Australian, and I suppose, the English speaking World's Media is (and has been for decades) permeated by the American News items, T.V show's, T.V Commercials, Music, Arts, Clothing, Social Movements etc, etc, etc. Add nausea.
I know right, this guy is a national treasure….
I did. Been missing him a LOT
Thank you Jon for helping expose the corruption retail investors face.
It truly is financial treason what these guys are guilty of
Thank you Jon for using your platform to talk about a ridiculous problem with our financial systems
I once worked for a company that developed software for the financial industry. Specifically derivatives. I never fully understood it but I assumed then (90s) the stock market was a huge ponzi/gambling/dark money scheme when we came up with the monte carlo calculation where no one could definitively calculate the results. For added humor, they gave it a dice icon. That is exactly how it felt, someone said "show me the money" and click the icon (throw the dice) and it gave you some BS number.
Thank you, Jon and team. We need content like this!
This is why we needed Jon Stewart back online. Somebody has to dig for The Truth and shine a light into the damn darkness...
I’m happy Jon was able to cover this while other “news” organizations are busy turning the blind eye to corporate greed that they themselves benefit from.
Right? Let's go!
This is what happens when media organizations get bought by hedge funds/market makers..
and yet, he throws shade at joe rogan….the guy who made a name for himself addressing exactly those uncomfortable topics….really strange tomes
Yup, Yellen and the SEC buried that shit real quick.
covered it a year later
This is something I have been sharing with friends, family, and anyone who will listen. The easier they make it to trade, the worse it is for the retail trader.
You are so awesome, thanks for putting the truth out there and supporting this just cause, we appreciate you!!
"Someone should question him publicly" That was an all-time watch.
I think he might have been referencing that
You guys want to clue the rest of us in?
@@FLdancer00 Jim Kramer is a fucking puppet who spits out random garbage but is never confronted about the stupid shit he says but I think there's a video out there of someone doing something like that
I remember at one time people thought it was bad that most people were getting their news from the Daily Show. This is proof that it was a good thing.
Can't say that today.
THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT!!! PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS AS NEWS! The Daily Show gives you the validation and emotional strength, the sense of righteousness to continue doing the right thing. Do not get news and entertainment confused!
Well...I wouldn't say that is entirely correct. Shows like this DO share facts about events. But it does have a bias...although most reasonable people would agree the bias is toward anti-corruption and therefore acceptable.
We got our news from Jon on the Daily Show and it never drove me crazy like CNN and MSNBC. It's not really their fault though, they have to repeat the same stuff every hour on the hour. We shouldn't have a 24 hour news cycle.
It was dumb to get your news from daily show back then and it's even dumber now.
This is the best breakdown of how the markets ACTUALLY work that ur probably going to find floating around.
I remember the whole "diamond hands" vs. "paper hands" thing. Great segment, Jon!
"Haunted Victorian Boy" was the best zinger I've heard in a while. :D
Need more people with a platform talking about this. Thank you Jon
Jon Stewart, despite the comedy aspect, is probably the most reasonable and responsible voices in American politics. NPR is the best pure journalism. I went to "The Rally to Restore Sanity". It was a beautiful and peaceful thing.
Truth is ugly sometimes. Thanks for doing this Jon.
This is a foundational issue to our society. More people should be talking about this
Please make sure to share this with others lets get the word out 🙌

How did no one laugh at that "in the 90s, they were just friends" line? Gold!
It’s so satisfying to have Jon back! Jonny, we hardly knew ye
I never realized just how much I missed having this voice in my life. I thought the whole game stonk thing was really illuminating in how we were able to see how the stock market isn’t REALLY for the people. It’s for a select group of people.
But you do have a voice. If you buy a stock and direct register under your name it won’t be able to be manipulated by brokers. People in GME have been doing it.
The stock market exists to extract wealth from normal people. You may make money nominally, but you are in the minority. The system is set up so you lose purchasing power over time unless you're actively managing your investments. Brokers and traders call 401k and ETF investors "dumb money" for a reason. They are taking advantage of you.
If you watch other media, they were shaming the Redditor, when I said media I mean even the New York Times was on all this madness, and to top it up they also do everything in their power to not give them access to continuing. What that application (Robinhood) did was criminal and they should take them to court.
You know 80-90% of people (or whatever the number is) that lose money in the stock market don’t lose money because the stock market is rigged.
They lose money because they make incredibly stupid moves in the stock market.
They lose money because they buy GameStop stock at all time highs because it’s going up and they want in on the action despite the lack of fundamentals to justify such a price increase.
They lose money because most of them day trade. An investing strategy which will put you directly up against quants like Jim Simons who have better and faster equipment than you, and are smarter than you. Yet most people are attracted to this style of “investing” despite the odds being stacked against you.
Can the stock market be rigged sometimes? Well kinda but not really. Nancy Pelosi is a good example of a “rigged” stock market.
Do people lose money because the stock market is rigged against them? No.
Do the top 10% of people hold 80-90% of the stock market because it’s rigged against the bottom 90%? No.
The stock market isn’t an example of inequality. The stock market isn’t a tool to transfer wealth from the poor to the wealthy. The stock market is just that, a market, just like any other market.
There will be winners and there will be losers but in the end, the majority of people benefit.
A small minority will get almost everything and that’s just how it is and how it always has been and always will be as per the Pareto distribution.
People will keep losing money in the stock market as long as people make stupid decisions.
The stock market isn’t what’s rigged. What’s rigged are the games that they play in the stock market. You wanna make money in the stock market?
Don’t day trade, and you won’t lose to quants.
Don’t ape into meme or overhyped stocks and you won’t lose to hedge funds.
Don’t buy into overpriced assets and you won’t lose to your own stupidity.
Don’t leverage to the tits and you won’t lose to banks.
Don’t use RobinHood and you won’t be caught in the crossfire when their market maker gets squeezed into a position forcing them to take action to save their own asses at your own expense.
Don’t play their games and you’ll do just fine.
All that being said, Nancy Pelosi is still an insider trading criminal b*tch and needs to be fired and lawmakers can’t be allowed to trade.
“Oh but it’s a free market”
Stfu Nancy, there are people in positions granting them with less information than you that you forbid from participating in the stock market because they’d be insider trading. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. Pick a lane. B*tch.

This is absolutely Gold!
Over the past year, I've learned so much about the stock market watching the unraveling GME debacle. The system needs checks, balances, and extreme transparency so that the middle and lower classes aren't ground beneath the boots of the upper class.
Everyone knows it, but everyone doesn't want it. Too much money to be made. Countries are run by crooks. :(

@@Doflaminguard I see what you're getting at, but it's more than that. Capitalism is designed to aid the greedy in exploiting the worker into giving up their labor power to those that do nothing but provide to space to create and build.
To literally have slave labor making Nike's to sell on Amazon. Capitalism is the problem with everything.
Jon Stewart is a hero for the people, really. The last time I watched him he was fighting for 9/11 Firefighter medical rights
He still is. It's not resolved.
I love how you break down corruption like a football play, more people need to see this.
Always very knowledgeable and informative. Thanks Jon. Oh, and wlcome back to The Daily Show.
Jon speaks the truth, and always adds just enough humor to keep the masses interested in topics that usually come across boring. He’s been fighting for the little guy, and it shows.
the problem is that people find it boring that their whole existence lies in the arms of people who dont give a shit about them
Spoken like a true simpleton. Yes, Jon job is to entertain men children.
@@NextLevelHardstylez why should anybody care about you,the world Owes you nothing.
I would say just enough hilariousness 😂
@@MrShnazer Question: Do you believe the election was stolen?
"When the Federal Reserve STARTED analyzing stock ownership in 1989..."
Am I the only one that immediately sees the problems and issues associated with that fact?
"Hey Chaz, did you hear they've started analyzing stock ownership?"
"Oh dear, Chet, whatever shall we do... besides all this coke that some dumbass coal miner is paying for with subsidies right out of his pension! HAHAHAHAHA"
I heard that the Fed is a private business? Who knows more?
Yes, you are! Because you are way smarter than most people. We can only be humble and learn from your superior wisdom.
@@miguelrosado6348 Well seeing as how the average person cares less and less about economics and politics, I can confidently assert your sarcastic remark is more realistic than any of us would like to admit.
@@munkqiking7207 That is simply not true. If you lived through the 90's you would realise that people nowdays care a lot more about politics than back then and people didn't know shit about stocks and economics before 2010.
Love Jon, so glad he is back :)
@2:49 “That ‘Hark!’ even scared me.”
My man, John's always on the right side and knows his shit.
Give’em hell Jon!
This is so frustrating! John is great. Glad he’s shining light on this.
indeed!
The whole damn system is guilty as hell.
Jon Stewart, you are the absolute best!
“Someone should question him publicly. I’m sure that would have tremendous ramifications..” 😅I remember that so well, Jon.🙌🐾 So grateful for you & relieved you have a show again, buddy. 🥰
Jon is one of the few people left that speaks the truth and sticks up for common people.
@@lookingjust987654321 Hey I'm not anti rich by any means he earned his money through his work he deserves it and he has never sold out he spoke his mind on his platform and shed light on injustices in our system. But no the market is public so anyone caught cheating in it deserves punishment.
Always interesting, thank you.
*Educational beyond belief once again from our hero Jon Stewart.*
"Who came up with Payment for order flow, Bernie Madoff? It is Bernie Madoff!"
You do the work for the people Jon. You speak for us. I've learned this in the last year and a half and my jaw stays on the floor from what I've learned.
Jon lost a lot of money himself to Madoff
@@modelsupplies What happened?
It made it where trading has no buy or sell fee's. 🤷🏻♀️ Seems an improvement, I remember paying $50 a single trade for every trade in the late 90's! Even $7 trades were prohibitive to me with my little money. Lol
@@iseeu-fp9po Madoff made off with a lot of people's money in a Ponzi scheme. He was not placed in prison, but in NC in the forensic unit of a long-term care mental hospital behind triple locked doors. He died a few years ago. But, he was the only high profile person that I can recall who served any kind of time after the giant wall street bail out that was caused by the crash of 2008. Justice did not prevail.
But John Oliver funnier and fluent✨
I remember that day not being able to buy. I felt the same was holy shit the financial system is totally broken.
I couldn’t believe it
I and my friends who were both in gme AND amc were FUCKING pissed at how utterly and platently corrupt this shit was on the day it happened. I remember being on robinhood and seeing 30 fucking minutes before market open, "We have restricted the purchase of these listed stocks". FUCK them.
Always Been.
The stock market needs to be ABOLISHED! Here is How to Convert a Public Corporation into a Worker Democracy czcams.com/video/n-_zw-e5Dt8/video.html
Not broken, that was it working as intended. It was just never designed to work for YOU.
can we get a series or follow up based on this episode? I would love to see an interview with the financial/investment team at Porsche that was involved in the VW squeeze back in 2008. would be great to hear their thoughts on how big that squeeze could have went if they held out and what they think of what's going on today after the Hedgies and MMs were taught a lesson....
Bless you Jon Stewart
General consensus in the West: We live in a free market
Me after seeing this: Oh, really?
Yes, this is the logical consequence of a free market
One of the most entertaining things of the GME thing was the court case that followed it and the absolute memes going on during it's coverage. These stock market experts legit could not get it through their heads that it wasn't this highly orchestrated plan, it just a bunch of people with some spare cash agreeing with one redditors posts and then jumping in. They had analysts trying to figure out the why and were utterly confused by people telling them "Why? Cuz fk 'em"
I know this is a year later, but the reason why they couldn't wrap their head around it, is cause they can't understand NOT colluding with others to pull the rug out from under someone else. Those people literally work together to fuck over anyone not in the club, and will protect club members. When you see one of them in trouble, it's because they got kicked from the club.
Imagine believing it was just bunch of redditors doing it. There were hedge funds on the buy side too.
@@fransliszt do you happen to believe the earth is flat?
@@JetPatrick No since I'm not a gme cultist.
Actually, it was just a group of guys attempting to keep one of their favorite franchises from closing. Gamers like their games, ya know.
Jon you're the best...Thank you.
Reddit has become an important place for me where I can actually find unbiased information in many levels and I can share information. Happy that people are coming together there!
Jon Stewart: Suggests he may consider running for office, possibly...
Everyone: FUCKING FINALLY. YES PLEASE.
Whoa! When/where did he say that??
Puhleeze!!!! Run Jon, Run!!! Everyone I know would vote for him!!
@@teresathayn5170 imagine the debates 😈
He should run as a Republican against Donald Trump. Don't even take it seriously, just eviscerate the guy at every opportunity. Even the most loyal Trump supporter will get a kick out of watching their hero crash, burn, then blow up like a nuke.
@@JamesWillmus It would be interesting, and I like both those guys, but Stewart is too nice to be a good US president. He'd be a fantastic upgrade from Trudeau though.
Glad to finally see this story getting the coverage it deserves.
So glad to see J back and laughing at his own jokes. Missed it so much
Jon Stewart will forever be the all-time GOAT of this type of shows. I am all against celebrities running for president, but I'll make an exception for him.
Wallstreet gaming the system isn't suprising but the media taking the side of them against retail is what really bothers me.
And politicians. Don't forget Pelosi's insider trading
The media is owned by the same wallstreet investors.
The more complicated something is the more likely that something is corrupt.
That's why bureaucracy swamps exist all over the place, to hide the corruption.
Finance tricksters do with economies, what academics do with higher learning.
Over-complicate everything massively until nobody else understands without a life-long specialist education... and then utterly and irreparably shit the whole thing up for good measure.
Jon is the man still!!
That Stewart guy is talented. He should maybe have a tv show or something. /s
That's about the best introductory explanation of the GameStop thing that I've seen. Good job Jon.
learning about dark pools back during broker licensing was one of the most “wtf” realizations I’ve had thrown at me. Honestly 90% of what we learned was a “wtf” realization
Tell us more.
Yeah, I want to know a little more 'bout these "wtf's".
@@bingbingbong2886 Do you know shares held by you is actually not registered directly on your name ? For that you have to remove it from the books of your brokers and register it directly with Company's transfer agent. However, companies are not allowed to tell you this as your "broker" wants to loan your shares for commission.
It has become quite clear it's a racket, so does anyone know wtf one should do with one's money these days?
@@youcancallmeana buy and hold amc if it dips back to 12-13 🤷🏻♂️
"In the 90s they were known as 'just friends'." I can't believe he didn't get a single laugh at that! I am disappointed in the audience. Shame!
I think they're just too young. They didn't live in the era when all of your gay friends had to be in the closet; much less before marriage equality.
Too young to get it 😆
The whole audience was a little cold. So weird.
@@jspanos500 But... but... haven't they seen the historical memes?! They're memes! Young people like those, right? XDDD
(Like, there are so many memes of this, tho)
@@RobShelley84 that's because Jon isn't that funny.
Glad to have you back, man.
An amazing piece of work!!!! How quickly that was all buried!!!
Videos and coverage like this is exactly why I revered Jon during his Daily Show days.
💯%
Well done Jon, this topic is as frustrating as any. The system is broken in so many ways that we need to scrap the entire steaming pile of shit and start fresh. Eat the rich.
Truff right here
Always a good meal.
My favorite dinner
Amen
"Eat the rich"
You can move to Cuba and achieve that if you want.
Good one, John. Thank you.
So glad ur back
I just want to say thank you Jon!
It's been so hard trying to have our voices heard. The American people are sick of being robbed by the rich and want change.
Rich people don’t “steal” from you, you are delusional
@@Conshisthot dig a little bit and you'll figure out that the elite have LITERALLY been stealing money from working class people through the equity markets in America
Jon shining his fantastic light into those "dark pools".
Keep doing what you do so well!
@Hakim Habib Sure you could look at it that way, but what about stocks that have had 40% dark pool usage DAILY for weeks at a time? Should 40% of trades really not affect the price of the underlying?
Thank you Jon
WOW- loved this explaination.
Fundamentally stocks still don't make sense at their valuation. There is still fear of holding cash
The market is now more volatile than i have ever witnessed before. no one knows the best financial move to be made at the situation.>
@@claradidi7573 its pretty farfetched for hodlers only... I leverage on the volatility of the market for significant returns rather than holding and loosing value to the volatility of the market I made my first mill from going diverse, mainly stocks, ETFs, few Cryptocurrencies and bonds. It’s a long term plan for me so I invest and re-invest. building wealth involves developing good investment habit and understanding.
@@bobbygunz9254 You really inspire me, I'm looking at building a good and stable position with crypto and stock and get it diversified just like what you're doing. please can you give info on how i can go about it. thanks.
@@viviangall1786 I let my portfolio mirror a licensed and recognised Financial - Advisor ”NICOLE ANN SABIN” stock picks/trades like it is done in etoro, She is quite known for her services you can do a web search on her using her full name. Ended q4 of 2021 with $143,670 in raw profits.:::
Are we too social media to fail?
I love that this show seems more loose and unhinged than the Daily Show and I am 100% here for it
Awesome video Jon, thanks for casting some light on those dark pools.
Excellent report, Jon.
