If you have any long form versions of this ranty comment, I’d be genuinely interested in reading it. Cheers
Citadel LLC (the hedge fund)
Both part of Citadel the mother ship. All owned by 1 man (who like Madoff owns a hedge fund and a market maker, but unlike Madoff actually seems to execute trades with his hedge fund).
1 man who also happens to be the top GOP donor (what could he possibly want in return?): https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/07/citadels-ceo-ken-griffin-bec...
If you want more info, this is an OK start: https://youtu.be/26_IcexvePA
Kind of old, but still relevant (not much changed since then). The same documentary makers are working on a new one that I believe will come out this year. There's tons of info to find online if you Google any of those terms in my rant from the previous comment as well.
PS: those are just tips of multiple icebergs, there's more.
Mumbles something about perpetual FTDs, naked shorting, the biggest market maker also being a hedge fund (who donates many millions to corrupt politcians), tokenized securities that can be used as short locates and so on...
