So you’re saying institutional investors using Robinhood could trade $GME?

Institutional investors don't use Robinhood.

But yes, they were able to buy & sell $GME.

However, anyone with a Fidelity account could also. Fidelity has the liquidity to handle a system shock, unlike Robinhood / Webull / various others.
