What this whole saga has brought to light is how much the market is manipulated, mostly to accelerate the wealth transfer from the retail investor (boomer, millenial, zoomer, it doesn't matter) to the insitutional investors and hedge funds - the smart money.

We have to give up the thought that the markets move as they do on pure investor sentiment, and face the reality that a large part of price movement is manufactured to suit the big money.

Literally the opposite is happening here though, for the most part.

And it's that novelty that makes this newsworthy.
