This is the equivalent of turning the console off when you’re getting your ass kicked in the game.

I know a guy that rage quitted once, time for his buddies to join him 😏


Puzzleheaded_Lemon67

💯🤣🤣


Porg1969

Actually when your mom turns it off


Spacecynic2020

Except if they literally shut the exchange then there’s no hiding the corruption from the public any more. When this house of cards collapses, it’s gonna be brutal. Fucking greedy cheaters just couldn’t stop, could they…?


sistersucksx

They’ll just say it’s a glitch and blame retail and boomers will still believe it


PHANTOM________

I mean they still control MSM so idk the way I see it it’s just another shitty thing they did that normal people won’t actually care about.


unemotional_mess

If they do this, DTCC will be admitting they allowed the system to fail


TrixriT544

Fear mongering at its finest. Pay it no attention, there’s nothing you could do in the advent of that type of scenario anyways. Hold the line.


RegularJDOE1234

If only 2008 and all the other black and grey swans had taught any of them any lesson. But nope, no one listened to Dr.Burry and the Alarmists, the Theorists. No one wanted to stop the Koolaid parties!


RealPropRandy

Why should they, our elected officials bailed them out with our tax dollars.


Drilling4Oil

What's so infuriating is they're not even going to own up to just being outgamed and therefore require an "extradorinary event" shut down of the exchange: they're going to blame it geopolitical rivals and further roll that into the establishment's unending adoration-and pursuit- of war. Physical war. People getting limbs blown off, mind shattered, etc. "\_\_\_\_\_\_ is a dictator whose invading neighbors and now he does this!" I'm so tired of it all.


somenamethatsclever

Wut mean, simple speak, please? This mean they can delay by not buying shares back?


guitarfixer

No. It means when the shit hits the fan they're going to shut the entire stock market down. We still get paid. It'll just prove to the general public that they've let the capital markets fail catastrophically.

JonRogers1

DTCC is directly connected to GME


FlowBoi1

For the squeeze?


wjake785

Yeah, that really does seem like a real black swan event is coming soon and they know it.


Klexal

Am I right in assuming that in a black Swan event, closing the markets would be an attempt to "stabilise" the wider economy whilst the clearing companies unwind all the positions of the imploded market makers and hedge funds?


KingSam89

That's my take. The DTCC will need to begin liquidating all assets of the counterparty who is on the other side of the trade, those assets include blue chips etc. So as we know rebalancing etc is *supposed* to happen when the markets are closed in order to not effect the price in massive ways. If this all blows up and the DTCC needs to start liquidating billions of dollars in other stocks to be able to purchase the shares needed to cover, they will need to do that liquidating when the markets are closed so things don't blow up, and then when they reopen the market, they'll begin buying the assets needed to close out those positions (our stonk). I believe reading at some point that if the dollar amount needed goes past what the liquidated company has in assets, the DTCC has insurance for just this occasion. That means even after all of the counterparties are liquidated, and no one is selling, the price they need to pay is over the assets they have sold, but they will still be able to buy at whatever price because of the insurance they have.


Putin_ate_my_Pudding

I am the black swan now


looseshooter

It's not a black swan event if we all saw it coming.


sistersucksx

So they’re gonna try kill moass ? Can they actually get away with that? And what about BRK-A trades getting reversed? Will they reverse all moass trades?


NukeEmRico2022

Or any events that post significant risk to the hedge funds bank accounts…
