GAMESTOP STONKS, EPIC GAEMRS!!!1!

[Kurshok]

Anyone else hear about the Gamestio stock redditor fiasco, the whining by Lee Cooperman, and the absurdity of the response by billionaires?

[Carnage]

Yeah, pretty crazy stuff. This will only make crypto more popular because of it's decentralized nature, even though the elites have a lot of power there as well to control price fluctuations.

And it's good to see hedge fund pricks get their comeuppance.

Yeah. These are the same pricks who initiate economic catastrophes for their own gain. Fuck'em.

Do you realize how contradictory that is?

Gamestop is on borrowed time. They will be out of business in five years because of the shift to everything digital and the consumers' willingness to embrace a one on one relationship with giant content publishers like Sony and Microsoft, who are in fact the consumer's worst enemy. No used game sales means everyone pays full price, or at a minimum, whatever the industry decides they should pay, because there will be literally no way for the consumer to obtain the product from somewhere else.

I was hearing that they would go out of business 5 years ago. They are still here, like Comp USA is still here and Circuit City is still here, in online form. Even if Gamestop eventually struggles with physical stores, they are still one of the main go-to places for new console launches, used games sell/trade, and fan merchandise. They have digital license agreements with some big names and the margins are apparently good enough to stay afloat, for now. In 5 years maybe that will change.

I am afraid you will not get a reasonable answer.

However, try this podcasts series. Very interesting. Unfortuantely, for German speaking audiences only.
