Message: [QUOTE="mscanlo, post: 3712973, member: 830"] did the hedge funds, and big money, really lose on this? yes, a couple of hedge funds lost big, but ultimately, the common guy (with their own money) helped raise the value of the company to $21B, up from $1.3B, and I keep wondering if a lot of hedge funds/big money are the ones who got the money out of the stock since they are likely more sophisticated and know all the ways to filter out money better than a common retail person would this might be a bad analogy, but it's kind of like me (who has little clue about poker) joining a poker game with a bunch of professionals halfway through it. yes, i could probably dump a ton of money on the table and squeeze a few people out, but likely, some professional is going to swoop up all my money by the end of the game.
