Everyone said the same about reddit and didn't blink when the sub came back in 45 minutes. I think it's also grossly naïve that reddit is even the main player anymore. There's so much after hours trading going on that has to be institutional. DFV made a great call and everyone noticed.

Why does it have to be institutional? I made a pre market trade the other day. Figure other regular people can too

Because institutional also own >100% of the stock (that sounds silly indeed, but it's the case).
