Remember this day january 28, 2021 was the day that the buy button was stolen myself. Personally, i remember i, i was very proud because i just got into the markets a couple months before that and i was doing pretty decently well for myself. I'm so so happy to see you guys making money uh, and i am honestly very glad that this community is together on this right. I put a lot of money into amc into blackberry, into nokia and to bed bath and beyond, and all these different quote-unquote meme stocks these squeeze plays.
These momentum plays back on january 28th. The money that i have made was stolen, i'm down 13 000. On the day. I was at 46 000 yesterday because that's what happened right, that money was stolen from people like me, people like you and many other retail investors that decided to dabble and try to compete against wall street.
The buy button being stolen signifies something very important, and i don't want that to be forgotten and it can't be. It represents the moment in which retail was supposed to be shut down. That's supposed to disempower somebody when you take away basic supply and demand the only thing that can happen. If all there is is supply is selling you take away demand you take away.
Buying pressure stocks can't go up, they can only go down. What else is that meant to do? It's not meant to make stocks go up i'll, tell you that with absolute certainty and the buy button being taken away disempowering people did the exact opposite over the next 12 months. I've witnessed some great things happen. I've seen so much education.
There are people out there 10 times more intelligent than i've. I thought i'd ever see in my life, we've uncovered massive amounts of market corruption. You've seen people uh learn how to make money trading. Other stocks in the stock market, even empowering other people within my own uh, small, small sliver of a circle that i have in this in this awesome community right.
I've watched people come from the bottom and work their way up to to being able to profitably trade and live off of that money. Amc right now and all these meme stocks i like to call them ape stocks or sit in a bad spot. It's it's sort of bittersweet to look at what we have as a current market situation, to look at the potential recession that we have on the horizon and say well. It looks like there's more pain in the next couple months, but i want to challenge you guys to to think about what's coming over the next year, when this recession ends and shorts eventually have to cover, because that is an absolute fact.
Shorts do have to cover amc, has a lot of short interest. Gamestop has a lot of short interest: lots of other small cap medium cap companies. Mid cap companies have large short interests when those shorts covered. I do think you are going to watch a squeeze aged just like we saw on this historic day january 28th, before the buy button was still before the momentum was killed before you were stolen from this day is special and it's bittersweet. It's something that probably brings back painful memories and nobody likes living through painful memories, but it can be a chip on your shoulder and personally i carry that chip all the time. I think back on that day and how disempowered i felt and how i never want to be there again. I think back on that day and i think about all the other people who have felt disempowered and how i don't want those people to ever feel that way. Again, we hold the power to change wall street, to make the change that we want to change the rules to change the regulations to make it so that people cannot create these up situations in the first place.
Don't ever forget this day, don't forget the day. The buy button was stolen today i am going to be buying 100 000 of amc stock to signify in my own way. What i believe in and my thoughts about this whole thing about the last year have been nothing but positive. Have there been bad days, obviously, but the education and the connections and the people that we've met along the way signify something a new market, a new way of life and ultimately, a new breed in which wall street and all the institutions could have never predicted and That is the apes.
Remember this day, my friends, that's what i've got for this video i'll catch you all later, i'm catching a flight, pretty quick here, light taps as always much love and peace.
